We're wired to value what we work for more highly than what comes easily. This especially applies to relationships.

But a lot of men accidentally plant the seeds of resentment in their relationships because they have a desire to prove their worth to their girlfriend or wife. But when you do everything for her, you're actually robbing her of her ability to connect with you on the deepest level.

A better solution is doing the opposite: The more your partner invests in you and your relationship, the more she will value it.

Now, this isn't a free pass to wield manipulation, which only works in the short-term at the expense of the long-term. Instead, it's about knowing the rules of engagement and using them to your benefit when they're aligned with your morals.

In today's show, you'll discover the "Cost Worth Connection" that can instantly raise your value on the spot, why people pleasers and nice guys struggle in long-term relationships, and how to avoid common pitfalls that come attached to the "Cost Worth Connection."
