  • How To Know If Your Marriage Can Be Saved

    How To Know If Your Marriage Can Be Saved

    Here’s how to know if your marriage can be saved: If your wife has only experienced a version of you who provided for the family and wanted sex, then your marriage has hope! She hasn’t fully experienced masculine/feminine polarity with you yet. That polarity is the secret to attraction. And shoveling the sidewalk or changing oil in her car wasn’t that. This article explains 4 ways your marriage will fail without masculine/feminine polarity.

    4 Reasons Your Marriage Will Fail Without Masculine/Feminine Polarity

    1. Without Masculine/Feminine Polarity, You Become Roommates

    Regardless of your gender, you feel attraction to what polarizes you.

    Opposites create polarity.

    Imagine a soft, sweet, affectionate woman who smells like strawberries.

    Her entire body is hairless, and she giggles in a high voice.

    Sound attractive?

    Opposites attract.

    The idea of masculine/feminine polarity is not a new concept.

    In Tony Robin’s article, “How to increase relationship polarity” he says, “When your relationship polarity becomes too similar, passion dies“.

    Harmony and polarity are not the same.

    Similar likes, dislikes, and perspectives is harmony.

    It’s what friends do… and roommates!

    Polarity is a spark.

    Where there’s Polarity, there’s energy.

    Polarity pulls you out of your comfort zone.

    It makes you feel sexual passion.

    A healthy relationship needs “spark” to fire on all cylinders.

    Asking how to know if your marriage can be saved is the wrong question.

    Asking how to have more masculine/feminine polarity is the right question. 

    2. Your Wife Cannot Relax Into Intimacy Unless She Feels Your Strong Containment

    Containment is not control.

    Containment is your protection.

    What would you do if thugs tried to break into your house?

    You would protect your family!

    That’s containment on a physical level.

    It’s time to learn how that looks on an emotional level.

    Your wife needs to know you can protect her emotionally, even from herself.

    She needs something to challenge to know where she stands.

    If you react or become defensive, you’re adding to the attack, not the containment.

    If you don’t handle her emotions with grace and presence, she doesn’t feel your masculine containment.

    Masculine/feminine polarity is created when your steady presence with her emotions relaxes her need to hide them.

    Your wife is fully capable of providing her own masculine containment.

    She can put her emotions in a box and only show you the parts she thinks you can handle.

    But this doesn’t feel feminine to her; it feels masculine.

    Polarity is lost.

    She feels like she has to be her own man to contain her emotional flow.

    A woman who has become her own man will grow resentful, angry, and burned out.

    Worst of all?

    She loses her desire for sex.

    Here’s how you restore masculine/feminine polarity by being the masculine container:

    • Stop reacting to her feelings and start responding from your values.
    • Take extreme ownership of her like you would a new car (this means being interested in what’s best for her and taking action so it happens).
    • Be quick to lead and to serve, but not to please (you don’t need momma to be happy for you to be happy).
    • Listen to what your wife says to understand it, not to give it answers or to fix it.

    Being this way grounds your relationship.

    And grounding is key for masculine/feminine polarity.

    3. Sexual Intimacy Needs An Initiator And A Reciever

    It’s time to stop complaining that your wife never initiates sex.

    Initiating is a masculine trait.

    Want her to be feminine?

    Be masculine by going first.

    Not just in the bedroom, across the board.

    A man who waits for his wife to plan the weekend, decide what’s for dinner, or figure out the holidays is not going first.

    He’s being a receiver.

    He’s reducing masculine/feminine polarity, and his sex life will suffer.

    Both men and women can embody masculine or feminine energy.

    There’s nothing wrong with switching roles sometimes.

    Getting STUCK in the opposite polarity is the problem.

    A man stuck in feminine energy will:

    • Grow passive, indecisive, and depressed
    • Feel like he’s at the mercy of those in his life
    • Blame others for how he feels
    • Let people walk over him
    • Avoid conflict like the plague
    • Hope and fantasize about sexual intimacy instead of leading it
    • Assume others are responsible for dealing with inconveniences in his life

    Why?

    Because in his heart of hearts, he is a king.

    You’re asking how to know if your marriage can be saved.

    I’m asking you if your wife has experienced you as a king.

    A king leads, does hard things, and takes responsibility for his actions.

    A king also does what’s best even if it makes him unpopular.

    Your relationship won’t survive unless someone takes charge in the realm of intimacy.

    That somebody is YOU.

    4. Until You Pass A Woman’s Tests, You Won’t Experience Her Full Depth Of Love

    When your wife complains about the toilet seat, she doesn’t want to talk about toilet seats.

    Little negs like this are how she tests to see how you handle it.

    Something totally unrelated is gnawing at her, and she’s testing how you respond.

    If you defend, explain, or avoid, she won’t bring up the real thing bothering her.

    That’s why you need to pass these small tests by not arguing or defending.

    Get curious and provide a safe space for her with your tone and presence.

    The real issue eventually comes out.

    A deeper layer opens, and so does her deeper love and sexual desire.

    Before she can totally let go in the bedroom, she needs to test how safe you are outside the bedroom.

    She feels masculine/feminine polarity when she can’t rock your boat over stupid stuff like toilet seats.

    How To Know If Your Marriage Can Be Saved With Masculine/Feminine Polarity

    If your wife has already experienced the best version of you and doesn’t like it, then your marriage probably can’t be saved.

    But if you know you could be so much better then the past, there is hope.

    I teach a highly effective process for becoming a man with polarizing masculine energy.

    • You learn a new way to think about your feelings.
    • You make choices from your non-negotiable values.
    • You stop orbiting around her approval and start creating the life you want
    • You become a man who is irresistible to women!

    Since feminine is wired to be a responder, you doing this work first is very effective.

    Masculine/feminine polarity is a natural occurrence. 

    Let’s talk about your current situation.

    Roommate Wife Syndrome: How To Bring The Passion Back

    There’s no vaccine for the roommate wife syndrome. Most couples think they are immune on their wedding day. But a decade or two later, the symptoms emerge. Loss of sexual chemistry… ghosts in passing.. the household is running, but your wife feels like a friend, not a lover. This article helps you understand male and female sexuality so you can bring the spark back.

    Roommate Wife: How To Change (For Men’s Eyes Only)

    How Men Sexually Desire Women

    Roommates don’t have sex.

    That’s the biggest symptom of roommate wife syndrome. 

    You are best friends 

    You get along great.

    But sexual intimacy is what separates lovers from roommates.

    Men and women are opposites in how they mentally process data

    The same is true when it comes to sexual attraction

    Men love when women are:

    • Fun
    • Exuberant
    • Full of life 
    • Sparkly
    • Sweet
    • Soft
    • Receptive
    • Motherly towards cute things 

    Those attributes add warmth and connection to your relationship with her.

    It’s her inner beauty, and it amplifies her outward beauty. 

    But what makes you feel sexual attraction for her? 

    The answer is simple: She’s pretty. 

    All that makes nature beautiful flows through her body.

    It’s her curves, her hair, her scent, her soft skin, and it’s dam cute.

    Your sexual attraction is based on how her body warms your heart.

    But when roommate wife syndrome sets in, her body looks tired.

    She doesn’t glow.

    The light goes out from her eyes.

    How Women Sexually Desire Men

    Occasionally, I’ll ask women which movie character they find HOT or ATTRACTIVE.

    The results always intrigue me. 

    90% of the time, it’s not the big muscular handsome-looking guy.

    You know who gets her sex drive going?

    It’s the renegade, the one who doesn’t give a shit, the one who could be dangerous if he let himself.

    He has some mystery to him, evident by his scars.

    But he’s strong enough to provide safety.

    He keeps his dangerous side in check.

    Notice this has nothing to do with his looks!

    The rare 10% who find the big muscular guy attractive choose the muscular guy who has mystery, courage, and self-control. 

    A woman will call a random guy “creepy” or “inappropriate” if he touches her.

    But she daydreams about a different man ripping her clothes off. 

    Why does she want it from one man, but not the other? 

    The answer is mind-numbingly simple: For the one man, she feels a sexual attraction. 

    Thank goodness women have a 1-100 point system for attraction.

    1 is a total creep. 

    100 is her knight in shining armor. 

    Muscles might gain you 5 points. 

    A handsome face? maybe 10.

    Most of your attractive points come from your ENERGY towards life.

    When your wife has roommate wife syndrome, your ENERGY is what changes everything.

    And right now, familiarity is all she’s feeling.

    Why Routines Create Roommate Wife Syndrome

    The opposite of energy is a flat line.

    Like a heartbeat monitor when you have no pulse.

    When you get into predictable routines with your wife, the spark dies, roommate wife syndrome kicks in, and intimacy dries up.

    But what has really dried up is YOUR passion for life.

    When was the last time you did something fun for yourself?

    When was the last time you jumped on a plane and explored a place you’ve always wanted to see?

    You’ve been orbiting your life around your wife and family for so long, you’ve lost touch with what makes you interesting and full of life.

    You’ve had your nose to the grindstone as a provider for so long that you think that is your life.

    Boring!

    No wonder roommate wife syndrome crept in, you have zombie husband syndrome.

    Feminine is a mirror.

    She’s showing you what it’s like to hang out with you.

    What I know is you don’t even like hanging out with yourself right now.

    It’s time to stop waiting for permission and start breaking some routines.

    Reach out to an old buddy and go on an adventure.

    Get that spark back in your eye.

    Stop trying to smooth everything over, afraid to ruffle your wife’s feathers.

    Be playful.

    Tease her.

    Don’t react to her drama; be amused by it.

    Then, watch your wife get the spark back!

    How To Cure Roommate Wife Syndrome For Good

    Here’s what WON’T cure roommate wife syndrome:

    • Big muscles
    • Combining your hair just right
    • Beating up bad guys
    • Working 80-hour weeks so she can have a good life 

    A woman’s sexuality lives in her body, not her head.

    That means trying to convince her to change might change her brain, but it doesn’t get her juices going.

    She has to FEEL a change.

    There is no such thing as being a good enough husband that she wants to have passionate sex with you.

    Her body is pulled toward your masculine energy when you’re vibrant, present, and unfazed by her shifting moods.

    If you break the connection with her heart while being playful, it only turns her off.

    A woman feels safe when she can open herself up to you without fearing rejection, defensiveness, resentment, or pissiness.

    That safety is very different from the familiarity and complacency that creates roommate wife syndrome.

    It’s about her feeling comfortable opening up, knowing you won’t try to fix her or make her feel crazy.

    For your wife to sexually desire you, she needs to feel your resilience to her chaos.

    She needs to feel your deep grounding in who you are and what you’re creating in life. 

    A hot woman will have scads of guys drooling after her.

    She could have any one of them she chooses. 

    A man, on the other hand, has to BE something before she will notice him as a sexual partner.  

    Who are you BEING? 

    Being her roommate or lover is your choice, not hers. 

    She is simply responding to what you’re choosing in life. 

    If you think getting this stuff sorted on your own is a good idea, I have news for you – that’s a LONG, windy road. 

    You don’t have to waste any more time trying to figure this stuff out alone.

    I’ll help you stop playing small, stop waiting for others to change, and start making bold decisions that bring the spark back.
