Send us a text

What if your husband says all the right things... but something still feels off?

In today’s episode of Build Your Happier Marriage, we’re diving into what emotional manipulation really looks like in marriage—and how to recognize the subtle signs before they turn into deep regret.

Inspired by a jaw-dropping moment from a recent Dr. Phil episode, we unpack how a man used charm, confusion, and half-truths to keep two women emotionally hooked... while playing both sides.

👀 Sound extreme? Maybe.

But some of these behaviors may be eerily familiar.

You’ll learn:

🎭 How to spot emotional gaslighting when it’s disguised as “I love you, but...”
🚩 Why ignoring the red flags early leads to deeper resentment later
❤️ What the Bible says about guarding your heart—and how to do it without shutting down your marriage

This isn’t just a warning—it’s an eye-opening conversation that could change the way you interpret your husband’s words and protect your emotional well-being in the process.

🎧 Listen in and learn how to tell the difference between genuine love and emotional misdirection... even in a Christian marriage.

✨ Key Takeaways:

If your heart feels confused more than it feels cared for, something’s off.
“I’m committed” means nothing if his actions constantly contradict it.
God calls you to peace—not to emotional chaos disguised as love.

📖 Bible Verses Shared:

Proverbs 4:23 – “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”
Galatians 6:9 – “Let us not grow weary in doing good...”
Proverbs 14:1 – “A wise woman builds her home...”
