In this Dear DSO, a military husband opens up about his wife emotionally and physically checking out of their marriage. After three kids, mood swings, and now being on SSRIs for anxiety, she's not the same woman he married. No sex for nine months. He does 95% of the parenting while she's glued to her phone and in nursing school. Is he being anxious… or is it time to walk?We talk about the mental health toll, the “mom bot” transformation, the impact of meds on libido, and what men in this position can realistically do. You're not alone.
A 65-year-old woman wrote in with a gut-wrenching story. After 42 years of being married to a man who never listens, never remembers their anniversary, and always puts his own priorities first, she's wondering if it's time to finally walk away.She's tried everything—even picked up The Dead Bedroom Fix hoping for one last Hail Mary. But this story? It's way too familiar. Men, if you think women don't deal with this kind of thing too, think again.Let's talk about what happens when you realize—after decades—that the person you're with isn't going to change.

In this Dear DSO submission, a man reaches out from the middle of an eight-year sexless marriage. He's passive, anxious, and paralyzed by confusion—and he's not alone. So many men fall into this trap.In this episode, I walk through his message and break down what's really going on here: the anxious attachment, the avoidant wife, the therapy cycles that go nowhere, and the desperation that leads men to stay stuck for years. I also bring up a common thread I see in my community: many of these guys are neurodivergent—autistic, ADHD, or OCD—and they bond fast and deep, which makes walking away feel impossible.If this sounds like your story, you're not crazy—but you do need help. Watch to the end to hear what this man should do next—and what you can do if you're stuck too.
Seventeen years of marriage. Three kids. Nice house. Dead bedroom for almost a decade. Then, during an argument, she looks him in the eye and says the words that'll haunt him forever: “I'm just not attracted to you anymore.”No yelling. No drama. Just a calm, matter-of-fact gut punch.This is what happens when a woman has emotionally and physically checked out — and finally wants you to get the message. In today's Dear DSO submission, I break down why this happens, what it really means, and what your options are when your wife finally says what she's been feeling for years.This one hits hard.
Why do so many women in long-term relationships cheat—and often with men who seem like total losers?In this video, I break down the science behind two popular theories about female infidelity: the Mate Switching Hypothesis and the Dual Mating Strategy. One of these is more “romantic.” The other is... well, it's the one most men fear deep down.We'll look at the latest research—including a 2024 study co-authored by Macken Murphy—and how it lines up with what I've heard from thousands of men in sexless marriages or reeling from betrayal.This is hard to hear. But if you want real answers, here they are.Join The HFM Brotherhood!

So many men ask me the same question: "How do I know when I've done enough?" They've put in the work. They've read the books. They've hit the gym, led with strength, stayed patient—and still… she avoids connection.In today's Dear DSO, Alejandro writes in with a story that I've heard far too many times. A disconnected wife. Years of emotional avoidance. A man trying to fix things alone.I break it all down—how much responsibility is really on the man… and when it's okay to say: “I've done all I can.”
A husband finds out—after 12 years of marriage and two kids—that he was never his wife's first choice. After a night of drinks and a fight, she admitted she "settled" for him and still thinks about her college ex.This is brutal. And it's more common than you think.In this video, I break down his story, talk about what's really going on in situations like this, and explain why some women end up choosing comfort over passion... until it all boils over.If you're a man trying to make sense of your relationship, sex life, or identity as a husband and father… you're not alone.
Margo and I have a long list of the things that we love about one another, but we're not going to pretend that there's a list of things that we don't like. In fact, her words are "the most unattractive thing that you do" to be exact! I had no idea that sitting accross from one another and exchanging things that we aren't necessarily a fan of was a relationship goal of mine, but here we are. Grateful that we've grown to the point where this can take place without insecurity or a desire to take personal jabs taking over. We spend most of our time celebrating one another and sharing the things that we love, so we had a little fun humbling one another for close to an hour!

We talk about the practical side of post-divorce life (hello, finances), but we also explore the deeper emotional shifts that come with letting go and starting over. It's part pep talk, part permission slip—and all grounded in real talk. About Valerie Simms: Valerie is a passionate coach dedicated to empowering women through transformative money mindset coaching.

Today's Dear DSO submission is from a neurodivergent man—he's got ADHD, a lot of anxiety, and not much dating experience. He feels like he's defective, like he'll never figure out how to talk to women or attract them. He sent in a long list of brutally honest questions:“How do I feel confident when women have all the power?”“How do I not look needy just by showing interest?”“Do normal guys really know what they're doing?”This one hit hard, and I think a lot of men—especially autistic or ADHD guys—are going to relate.In this video, I break down where these feelings of shame come from, why experience and repetition are more powerful than any pickup advice, and how to start small and work your way up. This isn't about fake confidence. This is about getting real, falling on your face, and standing back up.
Still scared of dating again after divorce?

Most men don't see it coming—until their marriage is on life support.One day she's your best friend and lover… the next, she's distant, irritable, and completely checked out. You think you did something wrong. You didn't.In this video, I break down the biological and psychological changes that happen during menopause—how they affect your wife, your relationship, and what you can do about it.

This one's brutal. A 36-year-old man marries a 49-year-old woman who insisted they wait until marriage for sex. Two years in, he's still never touched her. No sex. No intimacy. Nothing.He's confused, frustrated, and finally waking up after reading The Dead Bedroom Fix.This is a classic case of mismatched libidos, avoidant behavior, and religious guilt. If you're in a sexless relationship and wondering, "Is this normal?"—watch this.✉️ Got a story to share? Submit it at https://deardso.com
Mr. K wrote in with a story that's, sadly, all too familiar. He blames himself for a relationship that was dysfunctional from day one. She showed no attraction. She weaponized sex. She even stopped showering to repel him — and kept a log of when he initiated.He thinks he's the problem.But here's the truth: Some relationships are doomed from the beginning. And some men — especially anxious or neurodivergent men — miss every red flag because they're too busy blaming themselves.In this Dear DSO episode, I walk through Mr. K's situation and what it reveals about codependence, attraction, and the importance of walking away when a woman shows you who she is. If you've ever wondered, “What did I do wrong?”… this one's for you.⚠️ Want to submit your own story? Go to https://deardso.com
Have you ever looked back at a relationship and thought, “What the hell was that?”You were loyal. Honest. Steady. She was chaos.This happens all the time to autistic men—diagnosed or not. They end up in emotionally volatile relationships with women who may have traits of borderline personality disorder. These women are intense, manipulative, unpredictable… and the autistic man, with his calming and consistent energy, is the perfect target.In this video, I explain why this dynamic happens, what signs to watch for, and how to protect yourself from getting trapped in a relationship that feels more like emotional warfare than love.▶️ Need support?

Join Karen McMahon's High Conflict Divorce Support Group—a 6-session group coaching program designed to help you manage triggers, set boundaries, and take back control. -- 2024 cracked me open. It was one of the hardest years I've lived through—personally and professionally. I felt misaligned with my values, burned out in my work, and disconnected from the joy and freedom I preach to others. But in the summer, I read The Big Leap, and something shifted. I started a year-long commitment to stepping into my Zone of Genius, facing my Upper Limit Problems head-on, and saying YES to what scared me most… and life hasn't been the same since. In this solo episode, I take you behind the scenes of my Big Leap year. I talk about dating again after a decade (gulp!), redefining fun, getting back on my bike (and maybe soon my rollerblades), losing 15 pounds not from restriction, but from celebrating myself differently. I share how I moved from wine on weekdays to novels on the beach, from overworking to letting my work flow from joy. I even caught myself starting arguments in my head—just to feed my old programming. The self-awareness has been wild...and so freeing. And yes, we talk business too. I had tantrums. I doubted. But I kept moving forward. I've reconnected with the why behind Journey Beyond Divorce, and am reimagining the how. I'm sharing what's lighting me up: podcasting, group programs, deep partnerships, and creating space for you to take your Big Leap too. This isn't just my story—it's an invitation for you to leap right alongside me.

In this episode of Dear DSO, I tackle Dave's story — he's been married 13 years, but for the last eight, the bedroom has been dead. Less than 10 times a year. He's doing the chores, paying the bills, helping with everything, hoping it will reignite intimacy… but it hasn't worked.We talk about perimenopause, the harsh biological and emotional shifts that happen in long-term marriages, and the hard truth: sometimes, no amount of chore-play will bring back the spark.

What if your wife thinks you're a pervert for having a normal male sex drive?In this episode of Dear DSO, I respond to a submission from a man who feels like a prisoner to his own sexuality. He's doing the work, improving his life, but still feels rejected, shamed, and shut out by his wife. Sound familiar?We'll dig into the anxious/avoidant dynamic, religious repression, codependency, and the harsh truth that sometimes… they just don't want you anymore.I'm not here to shame guys like this — I was this guy. If you relate, you're not alone. We see this pattern over and over inside the Brotherhood.

You don't make it to 11 years of marriage without some legitimate tests.

Things are not perfect, but there is no question that our commitment to doing the right thing has made all of the difference.

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Matthew sits down with Laurie Woolever—author of Care and Feeding: A Memoir—to explore the journey of reclaiming one's voice after years of living in the shadow of larger-than-life figures like Anthony Bourdain and Mario Batali. Topics covered: Why Laurie finally chose to write her memoir after decades in food media. What it's like to stop headlining other people's lives and start showing up in your own. Her path through addiction, shame, and sobriety—and how it shaped her. The emotional toll and moral complexity of writing honestly about people she's loved. The collapse of a marriage and the ripple effects of one deeply vulnerable moment. Infidelity, accountability, and what radical self-acceptance really looks like. Why “nice but boring” often hides deeper emotional safety—and how to spot a mature relationship. Dating in your 40s and beyond. What “playing the tape forward” teaches us about addiction, impulse, and the allure of red flags. Advice for people stuck in toxic attraction loops or mourning heartbreak they fear they'll never get over. Whether you're grappling with heartbreak, questioning your worth, or trying to navigate the messy terrain of self-reinvention, this episode will feel like a conversation with someone who's lived it and survived to tell the truth.
Pride takes down families. Simple as that. It is as deceptive as it is destructive. If we were to closely examine the issues related to marriage and divorce, as well as other relational conflicts, pride wouldn't be too hard to find. Unfortunately, we all deal with it to some degree. Humility, on the other hand, is what strengthens bonds and makes way for the wisdom that we need to overcome even the most significant relationship issues.
