Modern dating culture tells men to give up after one rejection—but are we losing something valuable?

In this episode, I share the powerful story of a man who put a rock in a girl's mailbox every day for three months to show his dedication. 50 years later, they're still married.

What You'll Learn:

- Why pursuit isn't "creepy"—it's how good men show their character

- The three questions every woman needs answered from childhood

- How mystery and uncertainty create stronger relationships

- Why instant chemistry might be misleading you

- How to build unbreakable trust over time

- The difference between high-character men and performative charm

Key Topics Covered:

✅ The warrior nature of masculine pursuit

✅ Why "boring" might actually mean stable and consistent

✅ How anxious attachment kills mystery in relationships

✅ Building trust gradually vs. instant infatuation

✅ Seeing someone's true character over time

✅ Breaking free from transactional dating cultureStop letting social media turn dating into a checklist. Real relationships require time, mystery, and the space to let someone prove their character. This isn't about ignoring boundaries—it's about giving good men a chance to show who they really are.
