    I'm really glad I found this channel and movement, I didn't grow up with a father and didn't really know how to be a man. After me and my ex broke up i realized for the first time that I wasn't really the man I thought I was because of the feminine influences growing up in my life. Thank you for giving me some directions 💪🏼

    You speak the truth. Married at 20 instead of waiting to 25 or so. 53 years of marriage and should've had the fortitude to dump her in the first two years. I had her back but she never had mine. She wants to be on the ride without contributing. Too late since she's in BAD health. I'm the caretaker , which I don't mind. Just married to the stress and her being a b***h.

    Unfortunately I only found your channel AFTER the breakup already happened. It's almost 2 month now, where I improve myself, reflected what went wrong and how I can do it better. Unfortunately I still feel like shit. And I know exactly what you meant with "darkest times" as you went through this. I still fight for her though. Your example of how you got together with your wife proves to me that it is possible if the circumstances are right. Wish me luck brothers.

    Love your content man I get so much out of it I listen during my lunch break while I walk. I heard about you but not until I read Andy Frisellas book did I start listening more. I went through the 12 steps, got my head out if my ass and started being a better leader to my family. I was addicted to drugs for 7 years and couldn't get out if it. Now I'm free from that addiction which was driven by fear. It took courage and commitment but now I have over a year and I walked through a right of passage. Keep that fire going brother people are listening.

    Divorce is exactly that, one person drops something then the other one does something other... and then as George Jones says The race is on... both are guilty, both need catch themselves up and change... even if they still divorce. Kids are priority and both parents matter to the kids. Figure it out for them.

So many of the things you're talking about seem to line up a lot with principles he discusses in his lectures. I love that he draws on clinical experience as well as psychological data as well as the culture and mythology of the west. To have you guys sit and talk together would be really cool.

    to improve yourself for another is an inferior motive because that means your motivation for self improvement is validation from others. you have placed more meaning in someone elses view of you than what is healthy. and you will constantly value yourself only that way. and if that validation dosnt come regularly, it begins to undermine you as a person. and if you do it so she will come back, and she doesnt, its setting you up for failure.

    I love listening to your podcasts fr. I’m only 18 and will soon turn 19 and I’m already in a serious relationship with my girlfriend for 2 years now and we’re both really excited to start out life together. To get a house together, get married, start a family etc. We talk about our future all the time and our relationship is very strong. We’re both happy and committed to this. I want to make sure that I keep being the man she deserves, so far I believe I am. And even though I don’t have any problems with our relationship I still like listening to your podcasts about relationships because I keep learning and it opens my mind to new ideas. Keep doing these podcasts honestly.

    Mostly, you just vet for a woman who shares your internalized spiritual values so that there is no major confusion about the direction or balance of roles and responsibilities in your lives. The rest is essentially window dress or questions of style (not really a big deal when considering the bigger picture of a lifetime spent in investing in each other. Now... Questions of substance matter a lot, and should be discussed at length if there are major differences.

    It would seem a good idea to actually learn a few things about (your particular love interest's) her hobbies if you want to maintain her interest in you. How present can anyone be in any particular topic of discussion if they never learn anything new about it.

    To know that you matter I dare you to internalize your own locus of control. Then watch how much easier it is to improve your self-care which is eating nutritious food, limiting your snacking, feeling how much better you actually feel because you decide to park the car a few blocks from your destination or where you work you park at the far end of the lot and walk to entrance and climb the stairs instead of taking an elevator.
