How Insecurity Destroys Intimacy in a Relationship
Let’s talk about something that’s killing your intimacy more than anything else right now—your insecurity. That’s right. It’s not her, it’s not the stress, it’s not the kids. It’s not even that you stopped going to the gym or that she started wearing sweatpants more than lingerie. It’s your mindset. Your old, toxic, wounded, scarcity-driven mindset. And unless you fix it, nothing changes. Period.
I see this over and over again in the guys I coach and inside Beer Club. A man starts doing the work—he’s eating right, hitting the gym, handling business at work—and then something in his marriage starts to shift. She gets a little warmer. She starts paying attention. Maybe even gives him the look she used to give him in year one. And then... boom. He starts overthinking it. He starts doubting it. His insecurity creeps in like a thief in the night and rips the whole thing apart.
It’s subtle at first. Maybe he second guesses a compliment she gives him. Maybe he overanalyzes a text. Maybe she says she’s tired, and now he’s in a full-blown tailspin, wondering if she’s talking to another guy.
Bro. That’s not her. That’s your reticular activating system on full tilt.
The Truth About Your Paradigms
I recently had a guy in the group who was doing everything right. He worked on his online dating profile, went on a few great dates, and now he’s in a solid relationship. Sounds like a win, right?
Well, he kept asking us in the group chat, “Should I be worried about this message?” or “Is this disrespectful?” and 90% of the time, the answer was no. We’d tell him straight up—bro, you’re reading into things. She didn’t say anything wrong.
But I get it. He was still operating on old paradigms, poisoned by the type of red pill content that hyper-focuses on the worst traits in women. That content wires your brain to scan for threats that aren’t there. If you’re constantly watching Fresh & Fit, the Whatever Podcast, or anyone who spins women like they’re all villains, your brain starts creating stories out of shadows.
Insecurity becomes your lens. It distorts everything. And when that’s your baseline, you’re not showing up as a confident, dominant, emotionally intelligent man. You’re showing up as a paranoid, wounded boy looking for a reason to run—or worse, looking for someone to save him.
Your Insecurity is Turning Her Off
Here’s the kicker. You don’t have to be outwardly needy for her to sense your insecurity. Women are biologically wired to read micro-cues, facial expressions, body language shifts, and tone. If you’re unsure of yourself, she feels it. And if she feels it, the attraction dies.
Dead bedrooms don’t happen overnight. They’re death by a thousand “Should I worry about this?” texts. They’re built on mistrust, overreaction, emotional self-sabotage, and most of all—fear.
The more you operate from fear, the less she can trust you as a man to lead her emotionally. And if she can’t trust you to lead, she can’t let go. She can’t relax. And she certainly can’t get aroused.
Confidence is sexy. Insecurity is a dry spell waiting to happen.
How to Fix It (and Reclaim the Bedroom)
This is the part where I tell you to fix your insecurity by fixing your mindset. And yes, that means doing the reps. Not in the gym (though do that too), but in your head. That’s what my book, Get Her To F*ck You Again, is built for. I wrote it because I lived this. I was the insecure guy who blew it when things were going well. I didn’t hold frame. I let my emotions run the show. And I nearly destroyed my relationship.
The book is the playbook to stop doing that. To develop real confidence. Not performative, not fake it till you make it—actual embodied, internalized masculine strength.

But just reading the book isn’t enough. You’ve got to work the muscle. That’s why I also created the 12-week workbook that goes with it. This thing is structured to help you embody everything you learn in the book. Weekly exercises. Reflections. Rewiring. Application. Real change doesn’t happen by reading—it happens by doing.

Insecurity and the Masculine Frame
Let me tell you something that might sting a bit—women don’t want a guy who needs them emotionally. They want a man who chooses them from a place of power. There’s a difference.
You’re not supposed to be her therapist, her emotional sponge, or her child. You’re supposed to be her man. Her rock. Her anchor in a chaotic world. And you can’t do that when your every decision is filtered through fear.
Fear of losing her. Fear of doing the wrong thing. Fear of being “too much” or “not enough.”
Let me say it plain: that fear kills sex. It kills polarity. It kills relationships.
When you show up with clarity and certainty, everything shifts. When you believe in your value and move through the world like a man on a mission, she starts to orbit you again. She gets out of her head, into her body, and starts feeling safe and turned on by your presence again.
That’s when dead bedrooms come back to life.
Let Go of the Red Pill Scarcity
I’m red pill aware. But I’m not red pill bitter. And that’s a huge difference.
So much of the red pill content out there is rooted in scarcity and fear. It trains you to look for betrayal, deceit, manipulation. But if that’s all you focus on, you’ll never trust anyone. You’ll sabotage every decent connection because you’re expecting it to go wrong.
You need to retrain your reticular activating system to scan for what’s actually true—not what your fear tells you is true. That’s what working through the paradigms in the workbook helps with.
And if you want to see other guys doing the work, calling each other out, and holding each other accountable, join Beer Club. That’s where the real change happens.
The Final Word
If you’re in a dead bedroom situation, I want you to know that there’s hope. But only if you’re willing to look in the mirror and do the real work. You can’t fix this by blaming her. You can’t fix this by doing more chores or being “nicer.” And you sure as hell can’t fix it while operating from insecurity.
This is about leadership. It’s about being a man worth desiring. It’s about holding frame, doing the work, and becoming the version of yourself that naturally attracts respect, connection, and yes—passion.
Start with the book. Commit to the workbook. Join the group. Change your life.
Let’s go.
