Can a BROKE or JOBLESS Man Still be High Value?

By Renee Wade | All, Confidence, Finding Love, Relationship Issues | 11 Comments

The more jaded and less innocent you are, in general, the more likely it is that you may laugh at the idea that a broke man could be high value. The less jaded you are, in general, the more likely you are to agree that it’s possible for a man to be broke, jobless and still be high value. Knowing that so many women have been stuck in bad relationships footing the bill for toxic and unambitious men, I don’t take this subject lightly. I know there are bad quality men out there with zero gumption or integrity, who don’t…

How to be Vulnerable Without Being Needy

By Renee Wade | All, Confidence, Finding Love, Relationship Issues | 2 Comments

How does one show vulnerability without crossing over into needy territory? I’m not meaning to be flippant, but the short answer to that question is BE vulnerable. Let me share an example with you. Imagine a homeless man. He’s all alone in the street, without food, water, shelter and human companionship. He sleeps on the park bench during freezing winter nights and his mental health is all but ruined. Imagine him feeling the plight of his situation. He sinks into a despair so great that he cannot hold back his emotion. So he starts to really feel his sorrow and…

Should A Man Provide for A Woman 100%? Or is 50/50 OK?

By Renee Wade | All, Commitment, Relationship Issues | 24 Comments

Should the Man Provide for a Woman 100%? Or is 50/50 OK? This question, or some variation of it, keeps circulating in my facebook group for High Value Feminine Women. Due to the fact that this question produces polarising discussion, there’s always a small number of women who inevitably insult other women for having 50/50 relationships. I understand. Some women have been through the wringer with the wrong kinds of men, and after having these experiences, they assume that because their ex boyfriend who asked for 50/50 used and abused them, that the problem is the 50/50 setup, and that…

8 Shocking Reasons Why Rotational Dating Can Be Low Value

By Renee Wade | All, Confidence, Finding Love, Relationship Issues | 16 Comments

Over the last 10 years, rotational dating theory or circular dating has become the stock standard advice given to women. “Date more men!” “Build your man funnel!” “Get more men in your rotation!”, they say. It’s coming up to 10 years I’ve been doing this work with women in all parts of the world, and in that time I’ve also come to notice some patterns. Which means I have noticed that in the world of relationship and dating advice, the advice generally falls into two opposing categories. These two opposing categories come down to: 1: Advice designed to make you…

Why Being Feminine is NOT Always High Value

By Renee Wade | All, Attraction, Confidence, Relationship Issues | 9 Comments

🥶 One of the difficult things about doing what I do is that I see women sometimes get attached to “myopic” ideas that no longer serve them, and especially don’t serve the men that they come into contact with. I can’t blame them, I was there once too. One of these particular ideas is that feminine energy and “being feminine” is somehow everything. Why? Well perhaps in their mind “masculine men are attracted to feminine women.” Well, in one sense, that’s true. But when you really think and detach from the idea – when you zoom out, you see that…

Why the 80/20 Rule of Contacting a Man will Likely Make You LOSE Him

By Renee Wade | All, Commitment, Confidence, Relationship Issues | 19 Comments

In our Facebook group, there’s been a lot of advice given around from women, and one of these pieces of advice is to let a man initiate contact with you 80% of the time, and you initiate contact with him 20% of the time. This advice is usually given from women in the group (not myself nor David) in response to questions along the lines of, “Should I initiate contact with a man?” Some women take this rule further, claiming that they never initiate with a man, and they don’t only use this rule in the dating stages, but also…

Polyamory: 10 Reasons Why It Would Never Work Long-Term

By Renee Wade | All, Commitment, Confidence, Finding Love, Relationship Issues | 13 Comments

There are 10 good reasons Why Polyamory would Never Work Long-Term… yes I will probably get some flack from the poly communities, but put your thinking cap on and hear me out as to why polyamory isn’t all that it’s cracked up to be. Polyamorous relationships are getting more and more popular each day. Social media and dating apps has changed the way we date and find a partner. It’s caused our culture to value distractions, selfishness and instant gratification rather than real emotional connection. It’s caused us to treat the opposite sex like candy, and as an avenue through which…

The Women Men Commit to Versus the Women Men Leave

By Renee Wade | Commitment, Relationship Issues | 2 Comments

Let me share something important with you. There is a huge difference between the types of women that men commit to, versus the types of women that men leave. And the difference is not what you think it is. I used to know this woman who was absolutely drop dead gorgeous. Everywhere she went, she turned heads. On top of that, she had a great bubbly personality, so all the guys loved to talk and interact with her. Yet, all throughout her life, she kept attracting men and relationships that were subpar, damaging, and even toxic! She had a boyfriend…

By Renee Wade | All, Commitment, Relationship Issues | 10 Comments

10 Seemingly Harmless Signs of a Toxic Relationship

By Renee Wade | All, Commitment, Confidence, Relationship Issues | 15 Comments

Let me tell you a seemingly harmless, but really toxic story. Imagine two young and healthy people get together, a man and a woman. They are both very physically attractive (above average in looks in fact) and they both have decent jobs. On the surface, everyone, even their peers, think that they have a good marriage and above average lifestyle. They make good money and look good together too. They have everything in front of them. They’re building a car wash business together, and together they have a whole lifetime ahead of them. About their personalities. One of them seems…

10 Ultimate Signs of a Healthy Relationship

By Renee Wade | All, Confidence, Finding Love, Relationship Issues | 16 Comments

“You can’t handle the fact that you hurt me!” David said to me as we argued. “What? Um, hellooo. I’m the master of handling stuff”, I thought. “YES, I can handle it!” I said to him. “No, you can’t.” He said. “You cannot handle the fact that you hurt me.” Sigh. “What exactly do you need from me?”, I asked. We were in the car, he was driving us to the grocery store and I said something that had hurt him, but I didn’t think it was a big deal. I tried to brush off what I said. Meh. I…

When He Stops Chasing You & Being Romantic: What To Do?

By Renee Wade | All, Commitment, Confidence, Relationship Issues | 30 Comments

Hi Renee & David, I really need your opinion on this. Everyone else I’ve talked to has more or less asked me to fight fire with fire, and I’m not really that kind of a human. So, my man and I, we’ve been in a relationship for some time now (is almost 3 years long enough?) and he was/is a masculine at his core. So far, however you’ve described a masculine man, he fits that description to a T. I try to understand that he has that drive in him, the ambition to achieve his goals and I understand that…

The 9 dangers of leaning back and why it's not feminine

The 9 Dangers of “Leaning Back” & Why It’s Not Feminine

By Renee Wade | All, Attraction, Commitment, Relationship Issues | 72 Comments

Article updated 2020 There are many people who strongly believe in leaning back when dating. Since the early days of the internet, when Rori Raye started spreading her idea on leaning back and circular dating, or rotational dating, which means dating several men at the same time, the idea of leaning back has spread. Some people say that you shouldn’t take too many initiating actions with men, and let him chase you, whilst you still must remain warm and receptive. Apparently, this is because it’s the natural role of a man to come forward, to work for you, and take…
