In this Dear DSO episode, we’re diving into a common and surprisingly emotional question:
 "If I get a vasectomy, will my wife still want me?"

This one came from Matt — a father of three, married for five years, and totally done having kids… but now he’s worried that the snip might lead to a dead bedroom.

We break down:

• The primal fears behind vasectomy anxiety
• Whether a man’s fertility is linked to attraction
• The truth about women’s desire post-snip
• How stress and resentment play a bigger role than biology
• Why anxious thoughts can sabotage your relationship

If you’re married, done having kids, and wondering if a vasectomy will ruin your sex life… this one’s for you.

In this Dear DSO submission, a follower named John reached out to share his story. He was in a long-distance relationship, had clear boundaries about contact with the opposite sex, and discovered that his girlfriend followed and messaged a local pharmacy tech—without telling him. That was enough for John to walk away… but now he’s second-guessing everything.

In this episode of Dear DSO, I respond to a letter from Jerome—a man who’s feeling disillusioned and depressed about relationships and marriage. After a breakup and years of being told that “marriage is the dream,” he’s beginning to question everything.

Does long-term monogamy even work anymore? Are women really wired for it? Is the “wife and kids” dream still alive for men today?

I unpack all of this and more—including what I’ve learned from helping thousands of men, my interview with Women’s Infidelity author Michelle Langley, and my own personal experiences.

Why does it feel like the more secure your relationship becomes, the more the passion disappears?
