So if your girlfriend has daddy issues, is
0:02
it bad to discuss that with her? Well,
0:07
if you're having problems and so what does
0:09
it mean to grow with daddy issues? Typically
0:11
it means she did not grow
0:14
up in a environment where there was a
0:16
lot of masculine safety,
0:18
if you will. And
0:20
if the dad wasn't around or he was a
0:22
bad father, she's always going to tend to be
0:24
a little bit insecure. And
0:27
she'll probably typically end up with guys that don't
0:29
treat her well, the bad boy type, because she
0:32
is only listening to her emotions
0:34
and is unable to recognize
0:37
the bad patterns that these guys have
0:39
because she never got a healthy pattern
0:42
modeled for her. And what
0:44
you see with women that grow up with
0:46
a missing or non-existent father, it's like the
0:49
clips that we were just watching is
0:51
that she tends to become very masculine.
0:53
And a woman that comes from a
0:55
broken home is they're
0:57
going to have a higher incidence of being
0:59
disloyal, being a liar, being a cheater, those
1:01
kinds of things. Because
1:03
often they come from an environment where they're
1:05
just in survival mode. And
1:08
so whatever is modeled for them at home
1:10
is what they're going to bring to the table.
1:13
And so girls with daddy issues tend
1:15
to – they don't know which men to trust.
1:17
And they've probably had bad things happen to them
1:19
with men in their life when they were younger.
1:23
And so they don't know which guys to
1:25
trust, and they're following whatever their emotions are,
1:28
which leads them down difficult
1:31
relationships, getting their heart broken a lot, and
1:33
bad things happen. And
1:35
they tend to become a little jaded. And that was the
1:37
thing that we were talking about, what I
1:39
noticed about five or six years ago, with
1:41
women on the dating apps that were kind
1:43
of the hookers and the strippers, that type of
1:46
thing. They were basically looking for guys to pay them
1:48
to go out on dates and have sex
1:50
with them and stuff like that. And you can tell they were – even
1:53
though it was funny talking to
1:55
some of them, they were very beautiful. And
1:57
they were young, but man, they were so jaded and so angry
1:59
and so quiet. pissed off and hateful towards men
2:01
and just looked at them as like a
2:03
cash register. Right. Basically, because dad
2:06
wasn't there or maybe dad just sent some
2:08
money occasionally. She learned that
2:10
that's what men are there for. There are men are there to pay
2:12
your shit and send you money, but other than that, you
2:14
don't have much use for them because they don't
2:16
like their dad because their dad didn't do a
2:19
good job. If you're a normal
2:22
guy trying to have a healthy relationship and communicate
2:24
with a woman that grew up in a difficult
2:27
environment, a traumatic environment where there's
2:29
lots of arguing, fighting, dad's not
2:31
around or whatever, or
2:33
there is a dad in the home, but he's a
2:35
pussy and the mother walks all over him and
2:38
cheats on him, disrespects him, or maybe
2:40
both parents cheat on each other and
2:42
they cheat on their subsequent partners. When
2:44
somebody grows up in that kind of environment, that's
2:46
what was modeled. That's what feels normal to them.
2:49
So dating and being in a relationship with
2:51
somebody like that, they
2:53
can't handle things being
2:56
normal and being calm because they're used to
2:58
the chaos. So they'll create the
3:00
chaos. If you're trying to have a relationship with
3:02
somebody that comes from that kind of environment with
3:05
the daddy issues, you've got to be
3:07
able to talk to her and mention
3:09
because it is helpful. At
3:11
some point, you're going to know
3:13
the girl you date and what her family life
3:15
is like and what her history is like. So
3:17
if you understand the basics of human nature and
3:20
how the missing father
3:22
or the bad father influences the
3:24
girl, she might not be
3:26
trustworthy. She might constantly be accusing you of
3:28
doing something wrong. If she's
3:30
narcissistic, she'll tend to gaslight you and
3:33
mistreat you and things of that nature. She
3:35
may stonewall you. She may be passive aggressive.
3:38
In other words, she's anything but easy going,
3:40
easy to get along with. If
3:42
you guys watch any of the videos with my old
3:45
English girlfriend, Katie, who her
3:47
parents adore one another. They're
3:49
calm. They talk things out.
3:52
They are extremely close and
3:54
both the daughters are mild
3:57
mannered or mild tempered. They
3:59
are. They're optimistic, they're
4:01
positive, both the parents are like that.
4:03
Their parents are very successful, the uncles
4:06
are very successful. She
4:10
comes from a family of successful people that
4:12
are very family oriented, very close, very, very
4:14
tight. She saw
4:16
a model growing up, dad's calm, dad's got
4:18
his shit together, dad's very successful, dad's the
4:20
man of the house. He
4:23
absolutely adores his wife. His wife is
4:25
the most important person in the world
4:28
to him and vice versa, her
4:30
mother's like that. I
4:33
know that about the family because I got to
4:36
know them in our time together. It's
4:38
pretty obvious why she turned out that way. It's
4:41
also pretty obvious why women that come from
4:43
broken homes turn out the way they turn
4:46
out. Your job as a man is to be
4:48
able to vet and understand and ask
4:51
the questions so you can figure out where
4:53
she's at. It doesn't mean that all women that
4:56
come from broken homes are just undateable, but it
4:58
means there's going to be a high percentage of them that
5:01
are because most human beings, when
5:03
they're fucked up, they won't do
5:05
anything to help themselves. They won't read
5:07
a self-help book. It's like any of you guys that have
5:10
tried to recommend in my book to your friends, when
5:12
you know they need it, it's like very few of them
5:14
will take you up on that
5:16
offer. When you get somebody that comes from a broken
5:18
home and they're fucked up, the last thing that they're
5:20
going to want to do is go
5:23
do therapy or counseling or work
5:25
on themselves because they
5:27
know they need to become a better human being basically
5:29
in order to attract and keep the kind of people
5:31
they really want in their life. He's
5:34
going to have to have those conversations with her.
5:38
For behaviors inappropriate, if she's
5:40
stonewalling him, if she's
5:43
passive aggressive and gets mad and gives him the
5:45
silent treatment for three or four days, you'll
5:48
have to communicate that that behavior
5:50
is not loving, it's not kind,
5:53
it's unacceptable. You want easy
5:55
going, easy get along with it. If you're mad or you're
5:57
upset, just talk about it and work it out. army
6:00
for four days and that's
6:02
not how you resolve things. You can't solve
6:04
problems unless you can talk openly and honestly
6:06
about them. And after you've had
6:08
those conversations with her it's like she's either gonna
6:10
get better or she's gonna keep doing the same
6:12
thing. Yeah. And if she can't get better or
6:14
won't get better for whatever reason then it's like you either
6:16
put up with it or you
6:18
have to end the relationship to go find somebody
6:20
that came from a good family or
6:23
somebody that's done the work on themselves. But
6:26
for guys the the best thing to do
6:28
is to date ideally you're
6:30
gonna have the best results of women that come from a good
6:33
family where it was stable and dad dad's the
6:35
man of the house and he's calm. He's
6:37
a type A alpha. Yeah
6:40
but yeah I feel like I've been in
6:42
an experience where
6:46
I personally feel like I come from
6:48
a very calm home like there's no
6:50
yelling there's no cursing no one does
6:52
drugs or anything like that like no
6:54
screaming no fights nothing and
6:56
I dated someone who did have that
6:58
that had constant screaming or
7:01
shaming you know making them feel
7:03
bad ugly language and stuff like
7:05
that and he came into my
7:07
life and I'm more like calm I'm like you
7:09
don't need to yell you just explain yourself talk
7:12
normally you know like a human but
7:15
he wasn't used to that and that that would like
7:17
spark his nerve even more and I
7:20
had to explain to him you know that's
7:22
not right and little by little I got so
7:24
used to that treatment that I started becoming
7:26
that you know you became a cranky bitch
7:28
I became cranky annoyed I started snapping back
7:30
yelling and then I realized I'm like frustrated
7:32
because I'm like this is not mean like
7:34
I'm not even my mom talks to me
7:36
like this not my brother not my dad
7:38
not my grandma nobody not even
7:41
my friends you're the only person that talks
7:43
like this and you're making me become someone
7:45
I'm not which is unhealthy it's toxic and
7:47
I was like if you don't change or
7:49
want to change then I can't
7:51
continue being in a relationship with you because I'm
7:53
not changing for the better I'm changing for the
7:55
worse and it's because of you so
7:58
that relationship didn't work And
8:01
now like I'm with someone else and
8:03
they come from a nice home and
8:05
they understand patience, you know talking sweetly
8:07
nicely And
8:10
just being patient with me and I'm like, that's
8:12
what I need that's what I want, you know,
8:14
I'm not on Flight
8:17
or fight. I'm just wanna relax.
