  • Summary

  • In this video, I explore the concept of 'Monogamous to Mom,' and The Nice Guy Syndrome. The concept that Dr. Glover Talks about in No More Mr. Nice is how many nice guys, have with their mothers and how these bonds influence our romantic relationships. I discuss the common pattern of seeking motherly approval, which often leads to choosing partners who remind us of our mothers and developing codependent dynamics. I present various strategies for breaking free from these patterns, including building connections with other men, reevaluating father-child relationships, establishing independence from parents, and cutting ties with maternal enmeshment. I emphasize the importance of personal growth, setting boundaries, and cultivating healthy relationships as crucial steps for nice guys like us looking to resolve our 'mommy issues' and develop a more solid, masculine identity
