In this episode of Grit on the Rocks, we dive deep into the psychology behind the infamous “bad boy” attraction. Why do some women keep choosing men who bring chaos, drama, and heartbreak—while passing over the stable, loyal, good guys? We explore the emotional and psychological roots of this dynamic, what it says about modern dating culture, and why it almost always ends in regret. With honesty, humor, and grit, we unpack the bad boy myth, trauma bonds, adrenaline addiction, and the cultural glorification of toxic masculinity. Whether you’ve been the bad boy, the one who lost to one, or the woman caught in the cycle—this episode brings truth, clarity, and a few laughs. 🔥 Subscribe for more real talk on love, life, legacy, and leveling up.

In this heartfelt episode of Grit on the Rocks, I dive into the quiet, powerful act of reciprocating love in a relationship — and how showing up for your partner without being asked is one of the most masculine things you can do. After returning from a trip to Puerto Rico — a tradition that started with visits to my parents and now continues with visits to my in-laws — I reflect on how my wife once made sacrifices for me, and now, I honor her by doing the same. This isn’t about keeping score. It’s about mutual respect, grown-up love, and doing what’s right without needing applause. If you’re a man in a relationship, this one’s for you. Real love requires action, not just words. It’s time to start matching the energy of the people who ride for you. 🔥 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: Why real love is built on quiet acts of reciprocation How to stop being passive in your relationship Why men should lead by loving with integrity and effort The emotional power of “just showing up” 💭 Quote of the episode: “Love is not about possession.

🎙️ EPISODE: Modern Fatherhood Is a Thankless Job | Grit on the Rocks In this brutally honest episode of Grit on the Rocks, we dive deep into the raw truth about modern fatherhood in 2025 — and why it feels more like a burden than a blessing for many men today.
