Husband whose wife asked for an open marriage after secretly cheating for over a year asks Dr. John Delony what to do. Caller: “My wife asked for an open marriage last year. Later, I found out she’d already been having an affair for a year and a half before she ever brought it up. I can’t stop replaying the images in my head, and the rumination won’t let go.” Dr. John Delony didn’t minimize the betrayal; “The marriage you had is over.” He encouraged the husband not to rush into a decision while still overwhelmed by grief. “You have to sit in that grief and own it before you can decide whether to build something new.” The hard truth: When trust is shattered by deception, the first step isn’t deciding whether to stay or leave. It’s acknowledging that the relationship you thought you had no longer exists. Only then can you honestly decide whether there’s anything new worth rebuilding.

Man married for 24 years with zero physical intimacy asks Dr. John Delony what to do. Caller: “My wife and I have been married for 24 years, and there’s no physical touch between us at all. I’ve given her space for years because of her trauma and health issues, but I’m struggling. I feel like I’m slowly drowning in this marriage.” Dr. John Delony’s response was blunt: “You’re not in a marriage. You’re a caretaker.” He told the man that after years of living without intimacy, he had to confront the reality of his situation. “You have to either fully accept that this is the life you’re choosing or decide that you’re leaving.” The hard truth: Compassion for a spouse’s trauma and health struggles is important, but so is acknowledging your own needs. Sometimes the hardest decision isn’t figuring out how to fix the relationship it’s honestly deciding whether you’re willing to live with what may never change.

Young wife who has no desire for sex just 15 months into her marriage asks Dr. John Delony for advice. Caller: “We’ve only been married for 15 months. I was a virgin when we got married, and now I resent sex. It feels like an obligation, and I honestly couldn’t care less about it.” Dr. John Delony encouraged her to look beyond the physical issue; “Your body might say, ‘You’re not leaving? We’re shutting the system down.’” He also challenged her husband to change the way he was showing up in the relationship. “He has to stop criticizing you, because you can’t stand before him with no clothes on if you don’t feel emotionally safe.” The hard truth: Sexual intimacy rarely exists in isolation. When criticism, pressure, fear, or emotional disconnection become part of a relationship, desire often fades. Rebuilding intimacy usually starts with rebuilding emotional safety and trust not with demanding better performance.

Saving Myself For Marriage Was A waste. Caller (Anna): ...how can I help the bitterness and resentment that's growing in me towards my husband, I feel like he's ruining s*x for me. Dr. John Delony: How is he ruining sex for you? Caller: Okay, so background... I grew up... Dr. John Delony: (laughing) You were like, "Okay, let's do this." Caller: (laughs) I grew up very religious. Dr. John Delony: Okay. Caller: Very religious. No fun things in the bedroom until marriage. Dr. John Delony: Okay, so you didn't sleep with anybody else until you got married. Caller: Correct. Dr. John Delony: Okay. Caller: I met my husband now, husband at 27, married at 30. So a long time. A long time. Dr. John Delony: Awesome. Caller: And while I absolutely adore him and I think he is a wonderful wonderful person when we got married, it was... it just was not at all... Dr. John Delony: What you had built it up to be? Caller: Yes, and it still isn't. I feel like... and I've... I've talked to him about it, and my thing is... our honeymoon felt like a vacation. It didn't feel like a honeymoon. Dr. John Delony: What does that mean? What does that mean? Caller: That means that I had to initiate a lot of the time. That means that he initiated maybe once in the whole honeymoon. And I feel like he was more concerned about looking pool-time and, you know, sightseeing than he was with the point of the honeymoon, in my opinion. Dr. John Delony: Okay. Caller (Anna): And that carried when we got home, of course, that carried on. It only kind of became a little bit more stagnant. And that aggression, that lust, that passion isn't there. And I've had to initiate a lot, way more than I really want to. And I don't feel desired anymore. And this is going to sound so stupid, but... Dr. John Delony: Nothing you're saying is stupid. Caller (Anna): I've been having these thoughts where it's like, if this was what it was going to be, I could have been having fun in my twenties. Dr. John Delony: Sure. That's not stupid at all, not even a tiny bit. Caller (Anna): Okay. Dr. John Delony: Don't beat yourself up about that. Caller (Anna): What was the point? What was the point if I was just going to have a regular, normal, boring marital s*x life, then I could have had fun while I had time, you know? And as horrible as that sounds, it's how I feel, you know? Dr. John Delony: I don't think it sounds horrible. I don't think it sounds horrible, it makes sense. But I think there's something deeper than this. Tell me if I'm crazy, okay?

Husband whose wife had multiple affairs including with his best friend asks Dr. John Delony what to do. Caller: “My wife had a long-term affair that started with my best friend and eventually involved other people. She only stopped after she was caught. I don’t even know who she is anymore, and I don’t know how I’m supposed to trust her again.” Dr. John Delony didn’t sugarcoat the situation: “She’s become someone who could betray her husband in an incredibly profound way.” He told the husband that the marriage he thought he had was already gone. “The old marriage is over. You can give her a very clear path to rebuild trust and earn her way back or you can leave.” The hard truth: When betrayal is repeated and only stops after being exposed, rebuilding isn’t about pretending the past didn’t happen. It requires radical honesty, consistent accountability, and a complete willingness to change.

You’re not crazy.” Caller: “I just found out another one of my really good buddies was involved too.” John Delony: “Your wife and this guy too?” Caller: “Yeah.” John Delony: “Good God, dude.” Caller: “I stopped digging because I didn’t want any more names… but they just keep coming out.” John Delony: “Your wife slept with your friends. Friends, plural. You had to get your children tested because of your wife’s lack of integrity.”

Exhausted father of five says he feels like a failure at everything and doesn’t know how much longer he can keep going. Caller: “I’m 45, married, and have five kids. Lately, I feel like I’m failing at everything my job, coaching, cooking, you name it. I’m mentally exhausted, overwhelmed, and honestly feel like I just want to give up.” Dr. John Delony responded with empathy rather than judgment; “This may be the bravest phone call I’ve received in months.” He challenged the man’s belief that he was failing. “You’re not failing. You’re lonely and unanchored.” The hard truth: Sometimes exhaustion convinces you that you’re bad at everything, when what you really need isn’t to work harder it’s to reconnect with yourself, your people, and the things that give your life meaning.

A man who says he’s regretted his marriage for 14 years asked Dr. John Delony whether it’s finally time to leave. Caller: “I’ve regretted getting married almost from the beginning. I even tried to call off our engagement, but everyone told me I was just dealing with anxiety. I eventually had an affair, I’m no longer attracted to my wife, and I’ve spent 14 years building resentment toward her.” Delony didn’t let him avoid responsibility; “For 14 years, you’ve continued making choices that have kept you in this situation. You’ve chosen misery and infidelity over and over again.” His advice was blunt: “Own your part in this. You have two honest options: fully commit to repairing this marriage or leave. Either decision will require courage, but continuing to live in resentment isn’t a solution.” The hard truth: You can’t spend 14 years blaming someone else for a life you repeatedly chose to continue. At some point, you have to take responsibility for what you do next.

A married couple struggling with different levels of sexual desire asked Dr. John Delony for advice. Caller (Elizabeth) explained: “I rarely think about sex or feel the urge to initiate it. I waited until marriage and spent years teaching myself not to need it. My husband wants physical intimacy much more often.” Her husband, (Joel), saw it differently: “Physical touch and quality time are how I feel loved. Sex is a big part of how I experience that connection.” Dr. John Delony praised the couple for being honest with each other; “You may be having one of the healthiest first-year conversations I’ve ever heard. Kudos to both of you.” His advice was simple but deeper than just negotiating how often they should have sex: “Start asking yourself, ‘What do I want?’” The hard truth: A healthy marriage isn’t about one partner always giving in. It’s about both people becoming honest about their needs and learning how to navigate them together.

A woman who hadn’t been intimate with her husband in two years asked Dr. John Delony if a lack of sex was a valid reason to consider divorce. Caller: “We haven’t had sex in two years. Part of me wants to leave, but I feel guilty asking for a divorce over something like this. How can I end my marriage because my husband won’t be intimate with me?” Delony challenged the idea that sex was the real issue; “I don’t think you actually want to leave your husband simply because you’re not having sex.” He suggested the deeper problem was the absence of connection in the marriage. “The real issue is that he’s not connecting with you physically, emotionally, or relationally. The lack of intimacy is a symptom of a much bigger disconnection between the two of you.” The hard truth: Sometimes the problem isn’t simply that sex has disappeared. It’s that the relationship itself has stopped feeling intimate.

“17 Years of Marriage, and I've Never Enjoyed Sex” Caller: My husband and I have been married for about 17 and a half years, and he's been a very selfish lover our entire marriage. I don't know how to get my sexual needs met or get him invested in that for me. Dr. John Delony: How long has he been selfish? Caller: Our entire marriage. We've talked about it for years, so it's not that he doesn't know. Any time he tries to do something for me, it's really with himself in mind. He'll buy certain sex toys saying, "I think you'll really enjoy this," but it's really for him. Dr. John Delony: You cannot motivate somebody to not be an ass. If he's an ass, he's an ass. Instead of calling them needs, tell him exactly what you want. If you've been married for 17 years and he looks at you and says, "I don't care what you want. We're gonna have sex, I'm gonna get off, and then I'm gonna go to bed," then you're married to someone who doesn't care about you. If you tell him, "These are the things that help me reach orgasm. Will you do them?" and he says no, then we need to get curious about why. Caller: For me, it takes a really long time to reach orgasm. It takes a lot of focus, and he gets tired because it's not immediate gratification for him. Dr. John Delony: It's not hard. It may be frustrating, it may be annoying, but it's not hard.

I don’t want my husband to touch me at all. Caller: “My husband is deployed right now and he should be coming home soon.” “I’m so excited that he’s coming home… but I’m also dreading it.” “I just don’t feel any sexual desire for him.” “I’m scared for when he gets home and he’s going to want to be with me… and I just don’t have that feeling.” Dr. John Delony: “Is the whole switch off… or are you just specifically not attracted to him?” Caller: “The whole switch is off.” John: “Are you interested in reigniting sensuality and sexual desire? Is that something you want for yourself?” Caller: “Yeah. I want to want that for myself and for my husband.” Then he asked a question that changed the entire conversation: “Have you ever gone to sit with somebody and walk through your past?” Caller: “No… it was during my teen years. More than once.” John: “Can I just tell you I’m sorry.” And suddenly, this wasn’t really a story about a husband coming home from deployment. It was about a woman whose body may have learned a long time ago that touch wasn’t safe. The hard truth: You can’t shame yourself into wanting intimacy. And you shouldn’t force yourself to have sex just because your husband is home. But if she genuinely wants desire back, the answer may not be “try harder to be attracted to your husband.” It may be learning why her body learned to shut the door in the first place. Sometimes the problem isn’t that you don’t want intimacy. It’s that some part of you is still trying to protect you from it.

My Girlfriend Gave Me An HIV; Not Sure Where To Go From Here ( Should We Stay Together?) Caller (Tim):so my question is, my girlfriend gave me a... a quite serious STD, and my parents found out about this. They are now against our relationship saying that it's a way that God is showing that this relationship was not meant to be. Um, I've been fighting this like against my parents. And my question is, has... is there too much that has happened for this relationship to work? Uh, or am I trying too hard to make it work? Dr. John Delony: Bro, there's a lot going on here, man. Whole lot. Um, before I dig in, let's... let me just... let's just have a conversation so I can get to know you for a second. Is that cool? Caller: Okay, yeah. Dr. John Delony: Um, you sound a little bit nervous. Are you nervous, or is this just weird? Or, I realize you're calling a stranger being like, "Yeah, I got an STI from this woman that I love." This whole thing's kind of weird. Caller: Well, no. This is basically the first person outside of this situation that I've talked to, so... Dr. John Delony: Gotcha. Well, dude, I'm... I'm grateful for the trust. It sounds like there's a lot, lot going on here. Um, tell me about you. How old are you? What do you do for a living? All that kind of stuff. Caller: Uh, 27.

Caller: No, I don't. Dr. John Delony: Okay. So, what kind of STI did you get? Caller: Uh, HIV. Dr. John Delony: Okay. So, you've got HIV. Okay, so I was wondering if this was... The... my first question was why in the world do your parents know? Um, if I'm 27, the last people on planet Earth I would call and tell I have an STI is my parents. But, um, HIV is super serious. What is your, um, health prognosis? Caller: it's... so, I guess the situation gets a little bit more difficult because, my dad does computer diagnostics, and he was able to accidentally kind of find out I have this, and so I am... Dr. John Delony: Accidentally kind of? What does that mean? Caller: Meaning he wasn't expecting it. He wasn't looking for it. It was just kind of came up when, uh, he was doing the... I regularly do checkups. He's a... a doctor. Dr. John Delony: Oh, so he's a doctor at the place where you went to get checked out, and he discovered through the computer system that his son has HIV? Caller: Yes. it's a... alternative medicine that he does, and so it's... it's a very different kind from modern medicine, so it's just the way that he found out. Um, I just go to my dad for all his, checkups. Dr. John Delony: Yeah. What a mess. Okay, so tell me about this person that you're dating. Caller: Um, so... um... I guess what... uh, what would you like to know about her? Dr. John Delony: Well, just tell me about her. Caller: Well, uh, she's a... she's a nurse. Um, and, uh, Illinois, and, um... This is the second, uh, serious relationship she's had. Dr. John Delony: Okay. Caller: Uh, for me, it's... um, maybe the first serious relationship for me. Dr. John Delony: Okay. Caller: Um, and so, she's... I mean, she grew up in a Christian family. She's... um... Dr. John Delony: Did she knowingly... knowingly give you HIV? Caller: No, she didn't know about it. Dr. John Delony: Okay. Is she the first person you've ever slept with? Caller: Yes. Dr. John Delony: Okay. How long have y'all been together?
