Roses Are Dead

3 Insecurities Men Must Overcome Before Entering A Relationship


Listen Later

What if the “boogeyman” threatening your relationship isn’t another man—it’s your insecurity? We open with jealousy in its messiest form and trace how comparison, gossip, and social-media fantasy twist harmless moments into stories that ruin good things. From there, we go straight at the money myths: why men overspend to “keep” someone, how to set a season for stacking cash without starving the relationship, and the one mindset shift that turns panic into a plan. No shaming—just empathy, accountability, and steps you can actually use.

We also tackle timing and pressure. Want a family and big career moves? You don’t need to pick one. We show how to vet partners with clear goals, align on seasons of grind, and protect your future from outside voices. The home-buying analogy hits home: once you sign, it’s your roof when it caves—so choose for your life, not the crowd. Along the way, we break down past/body-count anxiety, the urge to control, and a better alternative: an abundance mindset that lets you love hard without policing rooms for ghosts.

Then we get to the core: identity as your competitive edge. If your value depends on money, looks, or vibes, your confidence will always shake. When it rests on character—calm under fire, problem solving, protection without recklessness, warmth without need—you become the one-of-one combination that’s hard to replace. We share real scripts for handling weird ex energy in public, why therapy and reflection help you name your strengths, and a powerful message for boy moms about raising sons who recognize love as normal, not suspicious.

If this hits, share it with a friend who needs to hear it, subscribe for more honest conversations, and drop a review with the insecurity you’re letting go next.
