Summary

You didn’t lose her when she pulled away—you lost her when you started shrinking to keep her.

Every boundary you bent… every “yes” you didn’t mean… you called it love. But it was self-abandonment—and she felt it. This episode exposes the truth most men never hear:

You trained her to stop respecting you.

And the only way back isn’t more giving—it’s reclaiming the man she can follow, or fearlessly walking away. Listen now—before you lose yourself trying to keep someone who stopped seeing you as a man.

0:00.0	Welcome to the Knowledge for Men podcast where strong men come to rise as grounded leaders,
0:05.1	lovers, and creators of their world. This is the next level.
0:13.0	You can't love her into respecting you. Most men aren't blindsided in relationships.
0:23.0	They just ignore the warning signs until the wreckage is undeniable.
0:27.0	They saw it coming.

1:17.8	She was looking at a shell, a yes man, a people pleasing emotional sponge who'd rather be
1:23.6	agreeable than real. She didn't see strength. She saw softness. She saw weakness masquerading as
