Episode 477: Men's romantic fantasy (why men get married)

In this podcast episode, the host delves into a common romantic fantasy among men in heterosexual relationships: the idea of equal partnership and steadfast support, no matter the situation. The discussion highlights a key tension: while men yearn for this kind of connection, many women tend to prioritize relationships that enhance their lives, often walking away when a man faces challenges. This mismatch can lead to disappointment for men who seek genuine partnership, suggesting that the loyalty and commitment they crave are often more easily found in male friendships than in romantic relationships with women.
