Why Modern Relationships Are Failing

Talking points: relationships, culture

This might bother some of you, but I think it needs discussing, because I get it all the time in comments, emails, and DMs: serious disappointment and frustration with dating. From men and women both. There are a lot of reasons for this, both surface-level and deeper, but here's what I'm seeing the most.

(00:05:04) - What we’re not actually teaching young men

(00:08:14) - Where do we go from here?

(00:11:04) - A gap I see in most relationships

(00:13:37) - Have the conversation
