Some of the Worst Advice

Mindfully Masculine: Personal Growth and Mental Health for Men

OK, in this episode, we finally close the book (ha!) on "Atomic Attraction" by Christopher Canwell.
To say this book is a "mixed bag" might be an understatement. We feel that it's starts off strong, but the games and manipulations that the author recommends toward the end feel excessive.
In this episode, we'll cover topics including:
How scarcity builds value
Why pretending to be scarce is a bad idea
Why friendship is not a path to romance
Why requiring a woman to invest in your relationship is important (to her and you)
Why men who spend time arguing with women don't understand women
That you're angry and defensive becuase you're afraid
How jealousy thrives in insecurity and scarcity
Insanely bad ideas to rebuild a woman's attraction
And, we'll introduce our next book, "Self-care for Men" by Garrett Munce.
