Guys, it’s your responsibility to take chances in your relationship or the gal is not going to take the serious chance of a long term relationship with you. From the initial meeting, to “the next level” to proposal to marriage, it’s all your responsibility. When you are wondering why you don’t have relationships that last more than a few months, you may consider that you’ve not taken the chances necessary to deeply and strongly connect with the lady and one or both of you just get bored.

In order to build a long-term relationship you need a few things. Trust and connection are at the core. She isn’t going to have a strong connection with you if you’re not willing to take a chance and open up. Think back on some of the things that have happened in your life that had particularly strong emotions associated with them. Discard everything that was a relationship with an ex. Then tell the gal you’re getting involved with a story about one of these events. Don’t waste your and her time by making something up, it has to be genuine and you have to feel genuine emotion in the telling.

I’m not saying to tell stories that have you in tears in the first 10 minutes of meeting her. I’m saying to take a chance and share some emotion. If you’re not willing to share, she knows that you aren’t able to take care of her when she is emotional because you have nothing to relate with. (Regardless of how emotional of a guy you really are)
