“She’s Playing Games!” Understanding Female Behavior

We often hear men state that, “shes playing games!”  The term “games” is used as a euphemism for manipulation. When men state that “she’s playing games,” they feel that the female is somehow manipulating them. In this podcast we first explain how use of words / terms impacts how we think and behave. As such, we want to be careful about the words (games) we use to describe things. In fact, we want to eliminate use of the phrase “she’s playing games.” Second, we review specific female behaviors that men classify as “games.” Third, we describe and articulate the nature of these female behaviors so that we fully understand them and don’t label them “games.”

“I Need To Spend Time So She Can See My Changes!”

On this episode of the podcast we discuss how you should be thinking about how you spend time with your partner after a breakup / separation / divorce. After or during a breakup your partner is likely to have a negative emotional valence towards you. If they have a negative emotional valence towards you it’s likely they don’t want to spend a lot, or any time with you. We then discuss how you use positive interactions to move your partners emotional valence from negative to positive. And as you do that you slowly start to spend more time with her. 

“She Doesn’t Respect Me!” Respect In Intimate Relationships

Men feel the need for “respect” to a much higher degree than females. When a man feels his partner / wife is not respecting him it can cause the man to feel devalued and he can become angry or upset. On this episode of the podcast we explore the nature of respect in intimate relationships. First, we define what respect is. Second, we describe the “respect worthy” qualities that a mate uses to evaluate your respect worthiness. And finally, we give examples of scenarios that may make a man feel disrespected, and offer ways to deal with each effectively. 

“But My Girl Is Different!” Explaining Personality vs Emotion

Many men will say, “but my girl is different!” Meaning, she is somehow unique and different from all other women. And of course; every woman, and every human, is unique and different and a blessing. However, we need to understand the difference between personality and emotions. Personality and identity reside in the frontal cortex area of the brain. The frontal cortex is relatively new as far as human evolution (150,000 - 300,000 years old). Emotions are derived from the amygdala, which is more powerful and ancient (millions of years old). The amygdala gives emotions salience, or meaning. This podcast will explain the nature of emotions vs personality. 

Perseverance! How to Persevere and Achieve Long Term Goals

Achieving long term goals can be difficult, especially when signs of success are not very apparent. At least not apparent to the inexperienced eye. As such, when you’re trying to reunite with an estranged wife or girlfriend, you need to understand how to increase goal commitment, and use strategies to persevere and increase mental toughness. On this podcast we first discuss how to increase goal commitment. The two most important factors in goal commitment are the “importance of the goal,” and your belief that you can “achieve the goal.” We tech you how to approach these two things. We then discuss the importance of observing changes in your partners behavior and how you should report this so you can understand that any changes may be signs of success. Finally, we describe methods to increase your emotional strength and mental toughness. 

Her Phone! Men Can’t Handle This And How to Fix It

Most men are threatened by their partners (wife, girlfriend, etc) use of their phone. The feeling of being threatened by her phone use usually results in either controlling (“you’re always on your phone!”) or needy behavior (“I wish you gave me more time, you’re always in your phone.”) Both of these behaviors weaken the man and make the female feel less comfortable. On this podcast we will describe the specific steps and mindset you need in order to deal with your partners phone usage. 

Females Are “Options Open” Oriented - What That Means For You
