#116: When the Masculine Overgives, but the Feminine Still Doesn’t Feel Safe

The bleeding heart man often leads with effort.
He gives, he fixes, he overextends, hoping it will finally earn him closeness or certainty.
And the high standards woman? She’s not wrong for wanting more.
But sometimes, those standards are hiding something else, like fear, self-protection, or a deep unmet need to feel emotionally held.

In this episode, we’re getting into what’s actually going on underneath this dynamic and how both partners can get what they need to feel emotionally safe without swinging into overgiving or rigid expectations.

Because love doesn’t require a performance.
But it does ask for truth.

We’ll explore:

• Why high standards sometimes turn into emotional armor

• How overgiving can be a hidden form of control

• And what it looks like to shift from protection into connection
