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.

Why You Attack Yourself! Listener Question

In this episode, I examine the complexities of social anxiety linked to internalized critical voices from parents. Using a metaphor of facing a bully, I discuss how self-attack emerges as a defense mechanism against childhood abuse. I emphasize the need for open conversations with parents and the importance of therapy in navigating these issues.

I also propose reframing inner critics as protective forces rather than adversaries, advocating a healthier self-relationship. I conclude by outlining a tripartite approach to healing that involves addressing external criticism, reshaping our inner narratives, and fostering self-kindness, encouraging listeners to pursue their own paths to healing.

On the Existence of GOD! Twitter/X Space

Wednesday Night Live 20 August 2025

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux explore the intersections of philosophy, personal challenges, and belief systems. He discusses the evolution of HR practices away from productivity and towards ideological compliance, questioning the influence of leftist ideologies on corporate efficiency. Through engaging calls, he shares insights from watching "Dear Liar," prompting a critique of societal conditioning versus individual talent.

Stef and callers delve into belief systems, drawing on Stef's atheistic perspective and the importance of logical reasoning over emotional conviction. The conversation navigates the themes of personal responsibility versus victimhood, encouraging listeners to embrace humility while confronting their realities. Concluding with personal narratives of overcoming struggles, Stefan invites further dialogue, urging an active pursuit of understanding and self-discovery through philosophical inquiry.
