# The Truth About Intimacy That Nobody Tells Men
Brother, I need to tell you something I learned the hard way, and it might save you years of pain.
The intimacy you think is possible? It's nowhere near what's actually available to you.
Most men are walking around thinking they understand connection. They don't. They're operating at 10% capacity and calling it a relationship.
The kind of intimacy I'm talking about changes how you walk through the world. It heals old wounds. It moves trauma out of your body. It gives you real confidence—the kind that shows up as calm, grounded presence. The kind people feel when you enter a room.
There's one requirement for that level of intimacy:
Safety.
Not romance. Not communication skills. Not date nights.
Safety.
# Here's the uncomfortable part most men miss:
Most women have never felt emotionally safe. Not consistently. Not deeply.
Women live with a baseline sense of unsafety that most men never experience.
When was the last time you felt physically threatened by a woman? For most of us, the answer is never.
For women? It's Tuesday.
Elevators. Parking garages. Long hallways. First dates. Every new man is a question mark.
So when she enters a relationship, her nervous system is already on alert. And every time you react to her emotions, her body logs you as unsafe.
She might not say anything. But her nervous system does.
Over time, your presence becomes something she braces against.
That's not intimacy. That's tolerance.
# The real test is simple:
When your partner is emotional, does she feel safer as the conversation goes on, or more guarded?
You don't need to answer me. Just be honest with yourself.
Most men see emotions as a threat. As an attack. As something to defend against or fix.
Wrong.
Her emotions are communication. And every time you react to them instead of regulate, you're telling her body: "I'm not safe."
# Here's what changed everything for me:
When she's emotional, I breathe. I slow down. I regulate myself.
I stop defending.
I stop correcting.
I stop reacting.
I get curious.
"What's going on?"
"Tell me more."
"What else is there?"
The more emotional she gets, the better. That means energy is moving. Something is being released.
When she's done, I don't fix anything. I thank her.
I thank her for trusting me.
For her vulnerability.
For letting me see her.
That's containment.
And when a woman feels held like that, something changes.
She relaxes. She softens. She opens.
When she can surrender emotionally, she can surrender to you. She can feel more with you. She can trust you. She can desire you.
# And if she doesn't want to have sex with you?
It's not a preference. It's a symptom.
Her nervous system doesn't feel safe.
And no amount of initiating, negotiating, or being nice will override that.
Sex doesn't disappear because she doesn't desire you. Sex disappears because her body can't relax with you.
Everything changed when I stopped trying to fix her emotions and started regulating myself. When I learned to stay grounded while she was emotional. When I held my center instead of leaking it.
That's masculine containment.
Containment creates safety.
Safety allows softening.
Softening allows desire.
#The red-pill crowd has it backwards:
nostr:nprofile1qqsr26r4lltjnvrwadxp67ns58m4qpzaqemhf5sup7hlujhjh7t296qpr9mhxue69uhhqun9d45h2mfwwpexjmtpdshxuet59uq3qamnwvaz7tmwduh8xarj9e3hytcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp03tnx6p basically tells you dating is war. That women are gatekeepers. That you need to "level up" and compete.
Scientifically, this destroys connection. It heightens fear. It blocks the social openness required for healthy relationships.
What women actually want isn't complicated:
- Kindness
- Humor
- Stability
- Communication
- Safety
- A man who shows up
None of this requires wealth or status. It requires you to get in your body, regulate your nervous system, and build the capacity to hold space under emotional pressure.
Women of nostr, am I right or wrong here?
Men of nostr, you might wanna listen up...

Intimacy is allowing access to your soul
Yet we are caught between seeking and fearing intimacy in our relationships
We seek intimacy because our soul wants to be seen
Our soul want to be seen so that it can experience itself through the other
So that it can connect to other souls and to the world soul
We fear intimacy because we have not learned about souls
We do not know how we should be intimate with them
So our souls get hidden away for fear they will be misunderstood or taken advantage of
Belittled to the point where we forget all about them like they never even existed
Souls! Don't be so foolish child, and our soul withers to nothingness
But if we are lucky some event, person or experience reaches the depths
Where our dormant soul lays and rekindles it's desire to be seen again
And if we are lucky, as we recall this feeling we will realise we can choose
Whether to open the door to the soul
Or to close it shut where at least it will be safe
There is no right or wrong to living with or without soul
We must each act according to our circumstance
But for those who choose to live with soul
We must learn how to be intimate without fear
So that our souls remain open to seeing those souls locked away
The things we write and post are also a communication of something to ourselves, which we can listen to and use for self learning and self healing. We need not be alone with ourselves if we can learn to listen to what is going on inside. gn
Beware the honey, mummy!
You can do anything you want.
Good luck.
You ended up on that path for a reason. Now you need to follow it.
This is my experience of the bias in all mainstream media this morning. There are no counter stories from Palestinian families waiting to hear news of their loved one who have been kidnapped and detained without trial.
Thank you Aida Touma-Suleiman
Hey nostr:nprofile1qqsqa6p85dhghvx0cjpu7xrj0qgc939pd3v2ew36uttmz40qxu8f8wq8vdeta let's do the usual, by you telling me about myself 😂
I’m going to change my name to Dave.
⚡️🤖 NEW - Elon Musk has released a new video of Tesla's Optimus robot learning Kung Fu, getting pushed, etc.
Musk says the Optimus in this video is not tele-operated.

Which one is optimus?
Ironic that it will shortly be worthless.
This week's episode of revolution.social is with the Etymology Nerd and author of Algospeak, Adam Aleksic.

It's on Fountain if you're not the video type: https://fountain.fm/episode/qXPDqSn3AJnjabKexuXh
It actually helps a bunch of you do listen / watch on youtube as that's the only place there are public viewer numbers.
This conversation was really fun. Not the least of which was i got to interview of the the social media influencers my kids like. He's somebody who both is successful on big social platforms and really understands the problems with they way they're shaping culture, politics, and the economy.
Interesting as always.
We cannot be sure that take off will necessarily be good for nostr.
Accept it as it is.

v The creativity of the people…
The British Prime Minister said last week that a digital ID will become mandatory for work in the UK until the end of his term. That's how it works... just like that! 😄 So resolute, sharp, commanding, as if you have no choice, exactly so that you think you have no choice... Just like the measures introduced during the corona, given that this method went so easily for most, smoothly, without any resistance! 🤦♂️ Corona was a testing ground, only psychological, not medical...

He says it will be in place by the end of this Parliament, not until.

Not buying 10, you’d have to list the 15 with good reasons first.
Who will remember those families dying needlessly today?
