My Wife Says I’m Pushing Her Away

Sometimes I have to write an article title that says EXACTLY what’s going on in your house and if you’re reading this right now I know that you’ve already typed in “My wife says I’m pushing her away”…but what does that mean? How does it happen? And when all you want is your wife to move back toward you…what are the things to avoid doing that are pushing her away further…

Today I’m going to use the example of making meatloaf and tell you how it relates to your marriage.

It’s messy, bloody, greasy and gooey.

It’s done with your bare hands with a bunch of runny ingredients and then the quagmire of breadcrumbs.

Then you shape it up just right and shove the gelatinous pink loaf into the oven.

Good thing it looks pretty good when it’s all done, otherwise, meatloaf wouldn’t have many friends.

What’s this got to do with your sex life you ask?

EVERY SINGLE MAN I WORK WITH WANTS TO SHOW HIS WOMAN HIS MEATLOAF!!

And I immediately call him off.

I save him from his own silly notions that showing his meatloaf to her is a good thing. It’s not.

I’m going to make you watch this video to find out exactly what I’m talking about.

Why She Doesn’t Want to Hear About Your Meatloaf

Bottom Line: Talk is cheap.

I know, I know. When a man starts to get involved in his own personal development he gets excited. For the first time he has something really emotional to talk about!

He’s been reading books, listening to podcasts and binge watching Goodguys2Greatmen videos every time he starts to feel down.

He wants to tell his wife the following things:

“You won’t believe what I learned in this book!”

“I can’t believe what an ass I’ve been!”

“I’m so sorry I didn’t know this stuff before!”

“I think we’re going to be better now that I’m really getting my shit together!”

Last but not least, “Can’t you already SEE the great changes I’ve been making??!!”

Again, talk is cheap and she knows it. All she will ever trust is action. Consistent action. Outcome independent action.

“You simply cannot talk yourself out of a situation you behaved yourself into.” ~ Stephen Covey

So where does an excited, motivated, shot-in-the-ass kind of guy go to talk about his meatloaf?

Other men. Other men like you.

Could be your grandfather, best friend, uncle, dad or even your brother-in-law.

Point is, FIND OTHER MEN to share your thoughts, feelings and journey with. Give your wife the time and space to simply experience the results of your work. That’s what she’ll believe.

I didn’t know this until I was 50 years old. I thought I could dump my emotional baggage and excitement on anyone.

Yeah…no. It doesn’t work that way. Sure, in a very healthy, secure relationship it’s important to share and be vulnerable (to an extent).

But if you’re reading this…that ain’t you right now, is it?

Here is what I want you to consider for yourself.

Yes, for yourself. Just you.

Push your comfort zone and decide to take a chance with my community of men. These are incredible, smart, warm, caring, feeling and empathetic men. In other words, they are carbon copies of you.

There is NO OTHER PLACE in the “manosphere” quite like this community. We don’t bash each other, we don’t bash women and we don’t allow toxic BS to go on.

We do talk about deep and complex topics about men, women, marriage, love and sex.

We do offer each other support, encouragement and advice when you ask for it. And we laugh. A lot.

It’s the safest and most rewarding place to be for a guy who is ready to really jump in and share his pain and his transformation into a man HE respects.

We teach you practical ways to deal with the mental and emotional challenges life throws at you and help you reach an unshakeable confidence in yourself (often for the first time in your life).

  • You won’t find negative, hateful language.
  • You won’t find a gender war – we don’t bash women.
  • You won’t find bitching, whining, complaining, and blaming.
  • You won’t find a group of men acting like victims.
  • You won’t find judgment or criticism from others.

We don't waste our time with all those things because we want to take the most efficient and effective path to creating the future you want. So we focus only on the things that are within your control: your thoughts, your words and your actions.

How do I know if I need coaching?

If you are feeling unhappy a lot of the time, if you're lonely, drained, lost, stuck or trapped, then our coaching will help. If you're not sure where your life is headed, if you're not confident in yourself, if you're not sure what you really want in life anymore...our coaching will help.

Whether it’s your job, your intimate relationship, or just wanting to feel more happy and with more purpose, then our coaching will help.

If you are tired of settling for a mediocre life or relationship, tolerating criticism and a lack of fun and intimacy and you're done with placating and playing it safe, then our coaching will help.

We will help you have clarity about what you're REALLY passionate about. We'll get you clear about where you want to be in six months and in six years. We help you figure out what you really want to create vs what other people think you should do.

We help you take action, get unstuck, start moving forward. We help you find what matters instead of just "being busy" in the daily grind. We help you figure out how you're going to get from where you are now to where you want to be.

For many of the guys we work with, they find a peace and a sense of emotional freedom that has them shaking their heads and smiling at how they used to approach life. They feel passionate about life again. They build stronger relationships with the people that matter most to them. They feel satisfied and fulfilled that they have finally found the “right path” forward and life starts to feel fun and inspiring again.

So now you've read that...what do you think? Would YOU like to try some of our coaching for free?
