Love On Command

Why Men Pull Away (& What To Do)


Listen Later

In this episode, we dive deep into the "Pull Away Phase" in relationships, often referred to as the "Rubber Band Phase," as explained by Dr. John Gray in his book, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus. This phase can be confusing and frustrating, but understanding it can significantly affect how you handle it. We explore:
  • The biochemical reasons behind why men pull away.
  • How this phase typically occurs around 2.5 to 3 months into the relationship.
  • The importance of confidence and independence in navigating this phase.
  • Common mistakes women make during this phase, like sending long texts or trying to force commitment too soon.
  • The role of testosterone and cortisol in a man's behavior during this phase.
  • The dangers of rushing into relationships, including the risk of attracting narcissists.
  • The importance of patience and vetting your partner before making long-term commitments.
If you're struggling with understanding your partner's behavior or want to strengthen your relationship, this video offers valuable insights. Resources:
  • Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus by Dr. John Gray
  • Dr. Leanne Brizendine's research on the male brain
