The Reason Intimacy Fades In Marriage

Hey brother,

I’m going to get right to the point.

If the intimacy in your marriage is lower than you’d like or non-existent, there’s a fundamental aspect of your relationship that is currently broken and that aspect is TRUST.

She may have said to you “I don’t trust you anymore!”, or she may not have, but I can guarantee that it’s a huge part of what’s going wrong between you.

So what does it mean? 

If there is a lack of trust in your marriage, you’ve only got TWO options. 

Whether she’s saying it or just thinking it to herself, your “lioness” is currently believing things like this:

  • I don’t trust you really care about me.
  • I don’t trust you to be present.
  • I don’t trust you to accept me for who I am.
  • I don’t trust you to have my back.
  • I don’t trust you to not hurt me again!

…you’ve got some thinking to do and some work to do.

But the work is simple if you can get your self-respect back.  

It’s easy when you feel more confident in yourself and you’re clear about what standards you expect of yourself.  It’s effortless when you stop making things a competition for who’s right or wrong.

When you’re the LION, you see a MUCH BIGGER PICTURE of what is actually happening.

And from there, you’re not scared of her anymore.  You know exactly what she needs and what you will do to help.  THIS guy is TRUSTWORTY because:

 

That last one seals the deal.  When you can find your own lane of confident, calm, consistent, patient masculine energy, everything changes.  I explain it more in this video.

The best and fastest way to rebuild trust with your wife is to become trustworthy.

There is no shortcut.  And there is no faking it.

The work we do with men totally rewires their thinking and their emotional strength to become the LION in their life and relationship.

When men tell me, “I want to become a better husband…a better father…a better MAN!”, I ask them, “What’s getting in your way?”

The answers are usually the same.

I don’t want you to TRY anything.

I want you to DO something you’ve never done before.

I want you to ask for help.

I had to ask for help.  It’s not easy, I get it.

How about I offer you a menu of options you have to ask for help.  I want to see you take charge.
