Why the RISE of Casual Relationships for Men
Let’s take a quick trip down history lane when it comes to dating, mating & relating. If a man (a couple) wanted sex, they’d have to get married or they had sex, made a baby, and then got married.
With the advent of birth control that all changed along with the shift that women don’t need men for support.
So, is it any wonder we see a rise in casual relationships?
But women are choosing this too and oftentimes unknowingly accepting these kinds of relationships.
In today’s episode, we are going to explore the DEEPER conversation centered around casual relationships and why men prefer them more than women.

Loved that you honestly said we are all f*cked up its just a matter of degrees! It’s so true!!
Jonathon Aslay says
awe… thank you.

Yes! You are right on about the “stable ambiguity”. I as a woman who is 60, and has been married & divorced twice, am just fine with that status. But if a relationship turned into more, I’d be fine with that too if we’re compatible enough and have tackled the tough discussions critical to moving forward.
Thanks for your discussions about these things. And no apologies needed for your choice of adjectives or real statements about sex!! lol
Jonathon Aslay says
Thank you and much appreciated…

Fuck, Jonathon, how could use anatomical terms like penis and vagina – what is this high school health class! (Actually I suppose these days it’s kindergarten health class). Seriously, Jonathon, this was an absolutely brilliant podcast. I so enjoy my daily lunch with Jonathon. What did I learn today – I am actually a man it seems! I married because I didn’t want to spend the rest of my life celibate and he married for MONEY, so I worked my ass off and there was no sex! After two autoimmune attacks he was afraid he would have to live up to “in sickness and in health,” so he bailed. What did I do – a happy dance!
Jonathon, thank you so much for this podcast – truly a brilliant, honest, very on-target podcast. I appreciate so much you sharing you wealth of knowledge. By the way, not only is history you see in movies flawed, the history we were taught in school in our history books is incorrect. Well, brilliant minds search out answers for themselves, and read, read, read! Thanks for all the book recommendations you give – Today’s I actually hadn’t heard about.
Jonathon Aslay says
I can’t help it, that’s the way I talk… lol. Thank you.
Linda Curtis says
Jonathon, never ever change the way you talk. Seriously, if someone is offended they will move along, but if you white-wash yourself to make them “happy,” first of all they won’t be, they’ll just come up with another hoop for you to jump through BUT, and here’s the kicker, the vast majority of us are not offended but we would know if you ceased being totally, unapologetically authentic Jonathon and then comes the element of trust – can I trust someone who isn’t comfortable being exactly who they are?
By the way, I’m not back here to answer you, I’m listening again while I eat my fruit and yogurt because this was just such an excellent podcast. Thank you, again, for this one. Absolutely brilliant and a perspective vital to understand in this vastly changed world.

Thank you…

Thank you, Jonathon, for explaining what’s going on in men’s lives. I had no clue when I got divorced almost 10 years ago what guys want. A lot of men and women don’t plan to hurt anyone, they just aren’t self aware.
I ordered the book “Eight Dates” and I’m looking forward to delving into it.
My mother, thank God, taught me not to give my power away to a man and to only sleep with someone I’m in love with. She had strong opinions and taught me how to say NO to any guy who wasn’t gonna love and respect me.
Keep up your messages of self love and about not giving your power away to a man. You have to set boundaries and terms with a man to get what you need and want.
The Disney and Hallmark movies are bullcrap. We all have wounds and traumas, in my case, I have family estrangement and abandonment issues. I’m working on those. First you have to admit there’s trauma, then you must fix it by learning and talking to a counselor if needed.
I’m an equal partnership fan. Like your parents, mine were married for DECADES and they were able to make it work because they were fully committed to each other for life. They took those vows seriously. So do I. No casual crap for me.
God bless you for your honesty! Inner peace is the goal. I’m happy with my life but I’d be happier with an equal partner.

Honored, thank you for your kind words… much appreciated.
