ADDICTED TO DATING CRAZY WOMEN! Freedomain Call In
Dear Stefan,
I am 40 years old from the UK. I am contacting you today because I would really like your help with regards to my relationships with the women in my life.
For years I have attempted to have long term and intimate relationships as more than anything, I really want to get married and have a family (and they will without a doubt be peaceful parented and loved!). But alas, I have never made it the fully pair bonded stage despite having several medium to long term relationships over the last 10 years. I have just turned 40 years old and despite having done years of Therapy and self development and thousands of hours of studying I am still having major issues with pair bonding and being a magnet for broken women, or women who seem to be in some form of crisis.
The second major issue which leads on from this is that my whole life I have been a constant rescuer and fixer and I find it incredibly difficult to split from a relationship even when it’s really not going to work, as I feel I will be hurting them at a vulnerable point in their life and I seem to sacrifice myself for them. This ultimately leads to me feeling stuck and trapped and experiencing side effects of anxiety and fatigue (which contributed to a major burnout in 2017)
I have listened to so many of your shows and I know this is wrong in many ways, especially as I don’t want to take their fertility window unnecessarily or haemorrhage anymore of my own time and resources.
Yet despite this level of self awareness which I have also developed through therapy (and I think its linked to my mother in some way), it is still a massive problem for me.
I still think there is something I am missing or not understanding properly and would love to get more clarity on this issue. I so often hear people on your shows say that you highlight things in a few hours that they didn’t realise in years of therapy and I am hoping you might be able to go a layer deeper with me to help me resolve this problem that is causing me so many problems.
Outside of this life is better, I am a dedicated Libertarian, Anarcho capitalist and Bitcoin advocate who has had several million views across all platforms on educational material I have created to help spread knowledge on Bitcoin.
I have spent years doing the hard work to turn my life around in every single way from a depressed, unmotivated, anxious, unconfident guy in my 20’s to a successful, much happier and confident person in my 30’s with much more or a purpose and mission.
But ultimately this is why I really need your help, I know I can be a great father and educator in this world and I don’t want to fall on such an important hurdle and throw away all my hard work by ending up with the wrong women and potentially breaking up a family. I know it would be something I would regret for ever if I do this and I feel like this is the way I am heading right now.
I am a long time listener of your show, donate often and I have huge admiration for everything you do and I would love to be able to discuss this with you.
Kind regards.

On the Nature and Existence of GOD!
Stefan Molyneux discusses a caller's book, "Signature of the Trinity," which examines God's existence through the Christian Trinity. They consider the constraints of traditional arguments, the notion of the twofold nature of divine truth, and the strains between divine sovereignty and free will.

Show Some Respect! Locals Questions
Answering Locals Questions from December 2023 - recovered from the archives!
Stefan addresses the importance of humility and continuous improvement. He recounts his own experiences of feeling overwhelmed and humbled by the vast knowledge in philosophy, despite studying it for 20 years. Stef emphasizes the need to acknowledge that he doesn't have all the answers and encourages further conversation and learning from others. He expresses empathy towards individuals who come across as arrogant but emphasize the importance of conquering the ego and recognizing the potential for growth. Surrounding oneself with quality people who strive for improvement is highlighted as crucial. He also discusses the principles they have established in philosophy, such as UPB, property rights, non-aggression principles, and peaceful parenting, but emphasizes the need for continuous improvement and remaining open to challenging one's certainties.

Was chatting up a woman and texted her that I’m interested in dating. She’s a bit further away but asked that if we were closer if she’d date me. Her response:
“If we got along (vibed), and had good chemistry then definitely”
