On social media, the relationship expert sparks debate after revealing why women should block other men.
Relationship expert Jake Maddock has sparked a fierce debate with his controversial dating advice.
He claims women should block any man their partner disapproves of online, without hesitation or questions.
The Controversial rule: block immediately If your partner asks
In a recent video, relationship expert, Maddock ( @jake.maddock) advises women to block any man who contacts them if their partner requests it.
The video has the caption: “Don’t Share Your Body Count ”
“When she gets a text from a guy you don’t like, say: ‘Block that guy for me,'” he suggests in the footage “Your ideal partner will do it straight away.”
He also explains how the rule workd in hia own relationship
Maddock claims this simple rule helped him find and maintain his ideal relationship.
Reflecting on his own experience, he recalls a time early in his relationship with his wife.
She received a text from a male friend. He asked her to block him, and she did so without any argument. “One sentence, no argument, awesome,” Maddock says.
Maddock believes that if a woman truly values her relationship, she should have no problem blocking someone to make her partner happy.
“That’s the way it should be,” he asserts. “You should happily block someone for your partner if it will make them happy.”
Maddock’s view sparked debat among many in social media.
While some agreed with Maddock’s philosophy, many expressed concerns about the approach.
Critics argue that healthy relationships should involve discussions about boundaries and trust. One commenter suggested that blocking someone should only happen if there’s a risk of romantic interest.
If the individual is just an old friend, the couple should discuss how to handle the situation together.
However, many viewers express discomfort with Maddock’s approach. They suggested that such demands could be manipulated if the person asking does not have pure intentions.
One person said: He is insecure & ridiculous! FYI, i’ve been married to the same man for 37 years and it’s a partnership not a dictatorship.
A second wrote: If she tells him to block someone, does he do it? Also, it seems like an isolation technique that abusers use.
While a third commented: If you truly loved your wife you wouldn’t demand anything.
Another added: Does he still think we live in the dark ages, needs to grow up this is the 21st century.
Someone else said: She’ll eventually get tired of that/you and have more respect for herself. It’s 2024… Maybe you both need to learn the meaning of “partnership.”
Others emphasized the need for conversation, suggesting that jealousy, insecurities, and boundaries should be discussed openly.
It doesn’t mean the person had to be insecure to ask you to block someone, but it can mean there’s more there that needs to be talked about to keep the relationship healthy, one observer said.
Previously, Maddock’s other controversial relationship advice
This isn’t the first time Maddock has stirred controversy.
