1
So, how do you actually get him obsessed with you?
2
Not answering your text messages within minutes or telling you how gorgeous you are obsessed.
3
No, I mean actually obsessed, like staying up at night because he can't stop thinking about you, obsessed.
4
Consistently showing up even in times that you didn't ask him to, obsessed about you.
5
Taking initiative and making it clear that you are exactly who he wants to be with, obsessed.
6
The unfortunate truth is most of the things that women do to try
7
and create that feeling of obsession from him are the exact things that prevent it from ever happening.
8
And after talking to and helping hundreds of women go from feeling underappreciated
9
and a placeholder and invisible to totally adored and cherished and loved without even having to ask,
10
I've discovered that the women who naturally attract devotion and consistency from men are not doing more.
11
They're doing something completely different, which is why I'm making today's podcast.
12
To show you why most relationships end up feeling imbalanced, why you keep attracting the same dynamic no matter how much you change who you're dating,
13
and what it actually takes to become the woman a high -quality man genuinely cannot get out of his head.
14
So let's dive in.
15
Let's talk about what obsession actually is and what it is absolutely not.
16
let's get into it.
17
Because I think a lot of women say that they want a man who is obsessed with them.
18
I know it because whenever I post the word obsessed on TikTok, it goes viral.
19
But what they actually mean is that they want a man who is devoted and certain.
20
And those are very different things from what social media calls obsession.
21
Real obsession from a high quality, grounded, masculine man that you want is not possessive or jealous or controlling.
22
It's not him checking your phone or panicking when you go out or trying to isolate you from other people.
23
That's insecurity, fear, and an anxious attachment at its extreme.
24
A real obsession from a stable man that you want looks calm.
25
It just looks like presence.
26
It looks like him consistently initiating, making real plans, and showing up without being reminded, thinking about you when you're not asking him to.
27
I know revolutionary.
28
It's not like loud, it's just steady commitment from him.
29
It's just basically him deciding that he's sure about you and that's the woman for me and moving accordingly, not too much to ask.
30
He basically pursues you, protects the connection and invites and basically invests into you without being pushed or prodded.
31
And the important part here is that the kind of devotion is not manufactured through games or tactics.
32
You cannot hack it, you cannot trick it really, and you cannot pretend for the long run.
33
It's a natural response to a specific type of feminine energy
34
that most women have actually been conditioned out of by today's society.
35
There is a difference between a man who is addicted to the chase
36
and a man who is genuinely devoted to you in the relationship.
37
The man addicted to the chase is triggered by anxiety.
38
He likes unpredictability.
39
He likes the dopamine of not knowing whether he's got you.
40
He likes the push and pull effect.
41
He likes the drama.
42
He's a little drama queen he doesn't actually like you he likes the stimulation you give him from being hot and cold
43
and that's why as soon as things calm down
44
he gets bored again the genuinely devoted man is not triggered
45
by chaos from you he's triggered by self -possession on his own accord
46
he is drawn to the groundedness of the relationship he's activated by a woman he's emotionally invested in
47
and stable with who's available and that's okay for him.
48
He doesn't want like a puzzle he needs to solve.
49
He wants a partner to be with.
50
And most women completely misunderstand what creates that feeling in a man over the long run.
51
Because popular dating advice teaches women to manufacture obsession and it's all over online.
52
Like don't talk to him and then he'll chase you, etc. Play hard to get.
53
Only one daily response.
54
Withhold affection.
55
Make him jealous.
56
Act busy.
57
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, post strategically, don't post this, post that.
58
And yes, that might actually trigger anxiety in someone.
59
It works, right?
60
But a high quality man that you actually want, that you actually want attention from, it won't work on him.
61
He can feel when something is unrealistic and a tactic, and he can feel when it's calculated and fake and you cannot sustain it.
62
And a grounded man who does want that won't compete with your strategy.
63
The women who actually inspire devotion are not the ones who are playing games.
64
They're genuinely fulfilled in their lives.
65
And that is the first clue.
66
They're genuinely selective about who they let close to them.
67
And they're genuinely unbothered by outcomes.
68
That's a big one.
69
They don't pretend.
70
They're actually unbothered by outcomes, not by people and situations.
71
There's a really big difference in the two of those.
72
A man can feel the difference between a woman who is pretending not to care
73
and a woman who truly has a life that is
74
so full and is grounded in a sense of self and a mission.
75
And.. he can feel the difference in that and feel the tension.
76
A woman like that truly feels magnetic.
77
One feels like she has a purpose that she's having in her life.
78
The other feels like she's simply not available and is pretending and acting.
79
One feels manufactured like a manipulation, and one feels realistic and authentic and adds real value to your life.
80
And this is the core truth that a lot of women don't want to hear, or maybe they miss it.
81
You can't perform your way into being the woman he's obsessed with, no matter what you do.
82
Like when you send me the DM, there is nothing I can do to make him obsessed with you.
83
He cannot wear a costume, wear the right lipstick, write the right script.
84
You just have to become her.
85
You have to just be her.
86
Because obsession from a grounded man is not a reaction to what you do.
87
It's a reaction to who you naturally are.
88
You see?
89
It's how you move.
90
It's how you regulate yourself, not using him by the way that's the clue it's how you don't collapse
91
when he pulls back it's how you don't change your personality
92
or character when he changes it's how you stay steady in your own life
93
and body even if he has some kind of different mood
94
that is the attractive part about you it makes him want to match
95
that energy and this is where most women get stuck with this whole dynamic
96
because they keep trying new tactics with new men and going hot and cold and doing this and that new strategies, boundaries, approaches, personas.
97
I'm going to this and that one, the other one, it's not going to work.
98
Dynamics keep repeating because you can't keep up the act, which brings me to the real pivot of the situation.
99
It's not about tactics.
100
It's about understanding why you keep ending up in the same dynamic no matter how many times
101
you start over with somebody new.
102
Face it, it always ends up the same, right?
103
And that's where we're going into next, which is why you keep attracting the same dynamic.
104
And I guess this is the uncomfortable part to talk about.
105
You keep attracting the same dynamic, even when the man changes, it's a different face, different job.
106
It was Gary, now it's
107
Barry, different city, but somehow it's the same story repeating itself.
108
And this is the part that requires some emotional maturity on your part.
109
Ready, Jessica?
110
Because the pattern is rarely about him, is it?
111
It's about the energy and the identity you're bringing to the table that people interact with and accordingly react to.
112
The nervous system is not neutral.
113
It acts like a filter.
114
It unconsciously scans for what feels familiar, not what's healthy, familiar.
115
And that's the concept in psychology called repetition compulsion.
116
It comes from psychoanalytical theories and it essentially explains why we unconsciously create familiar emotional environments in our lives,
117
even when they hurt us, yeah?
118
Your nervous system does not prioritize happiness, it prioritizes familiarity.
119
And if you learn early on that love requires overgiving, you will repeat that again.
120
If you learn that connection requires effort and performance and fakeness, you will repeat that again.
121
And if you've learned that you need to earn closeness, you will unconsciously create that dynamic even with someone new because it what feels familiar.
122
And this is why a woman operating from anxiety over giving
123
or over scroll overdo everything she will attract the same type of man who will reinforce
124
that behavior because that's what she's used to not because she deserves
125
that not because she isn't valuable or a or a terrible person
126
but because that dynamic feels familiar to her body she will choose the same again research on attachment shows
127
that anxious attachment tends to pair with what avoidance we've talked about it it's a polarity it's one pursues one,
128
one distances and the one that chases keeps backing the other one away.
129
The dance feels electric because it's unstable and because it's familiar.
130
And here's the thing, right?
131
Changing the man does not change the pattern.
132
You can take your nervous system into every room and you will attract the same type of thing.
133
You can take your defaults into any type of date
134
and you will repel the person who's not like that and attract the same one until something in you changes.
135
I know so many women who have had this exact situation.
136
You've had three months into something new on the surface.
137
It looks different.
138
He's a different person, right?
139
He says the right things.
140
He's got a good job that you like.
141
He seems really mature.
142
And then suddenly you feel the same tightening in your chest, the same weird feeling, the same overthinking begins, the same patterns in him begin.
143
Why is he avoidant of you?
144
Why are you doing all the emotional work? and you realize, oh shit, this is exactly what I felt like before,
145
even though everything on paper is different.
146
Let's talk about the specific mechanism that keeps people stuck in this imbalance dynamic, operating from need instead of desire.
147
When you desire a manner or situation or whatever, you're very open.
148
When you need a specific outcome, you become strategic and manipulative.
149
And when you need something to work, you start over -functioning, over -explaining,
150
over giving, over accommodating, over investing and being like somebody that people don't want to be around.
151
Not because you're weak, but because your body believes that giving more creates more safety.
152
There are studies in behavioral psychology
153
that show people who develop anxious relational patterns often over -function as a way to maintain proximity to the person
154
that they're targeting.
155
They become hyper -attuned to people's needs, person's moods, reactions, they scan constantly, they anticipate things, they compensate.
156
I used to do this all the time.
157
And here's the problem.
158
When you over -function, you create an imbalance from the very beginning.
159
You're doing emotional labor for two people.
160
You're doing initiating for two people, planning for two people and regulating for who?
161
Two people.
162
And he's doing very little.
163
So it's not necessarily because he's like malicious and mean and he plotted it,
164
but because there's no space for him to do the job of the other person, there's no requirement.
165
And I've told you this before about men, they will do the minimum that they have to in these situations.
166
And if there is no gap and no motivation
167
and why would he step up and do it
168
if you're doing all the planning
169
or the adjusting of the schedule is always the one sending and following up on texts and all these things.
170
You slowly train the dynamic that you do the job of two and he does the job of zero.
171
And then months later, you look up suddenly and you're like, why am I the only one trying?
172
Margarita, why is he not trying?
173
But it's a conscious choice.
174
Like it's unconscious, but it's also conscious in the fact
175
that you've done too much and now you've trained the pattern your body's learned
176
that love does not equal equality from two partners putting in effort
177
but in adult romance and relationships that strategy backfires because masculine energy
178
and masculine men healthy ones respond to challenge and space unfair i know
179
but they do masculinity steps up when there is a room to step into it
180
and when you fill every gap and manage every detail
181
and carry everything and every emotion there is nothing left for him to do there is no need
182
which is why the cycle becomes exhausting and you're the one who always
183
does the masculine energy in the relationship and over time
184
that doesn't just feel tiring it actually feels demoralizing and soul crushing
185
because you start to feel unwanted and unloved and all of these things
186
that are very big for women and eventually you're resentful
187
and like this angry little rat in the corner
188
that we talk about a lot right
189
and it's not about finding a better man or anything
190
because the dynamics created it's about understanding
191
that it really creates an imbalance in the first place and
192
if you leave barry you'll do it with gary and the one
193
that you see clearly once
194
you see it something shifts let's talk about why um most relationships become imbalanced in the first place um
195
they often start very nice and very beautifully because this is the part
196
that confuses a lot of people at the beginning it's easy
197
you met a new person you're relaxed it's exciting
198
you show them the best parts of yourself you're not analyzing every text because you don't have like ownership, emotional ownership over them.
199
You're in your feminine as in like, he does this, you don't mind what he's doing.
200
He's initiating, planning, pursuing you.
201
He's leaning in, you're responding and all of this good stuff's happening.
202
There's polarity, there's sexual tension, there's flow.
203
And then you start to care.
204
Bloody hell, you start to care.
205
And when you start to care, anxiety sneaks in, not because you're like crazy, but because you're invested in now what's happening.
206
And this is where most women accidentally step into their masculine energy to feel safe.
207
It looks really subtle at first, but you start to text or double text first.
208
You suggest to the next date and the day after that.
209
You double check plans to clarify.
210
You clarify what he meant when he said something.
211
You just communicate again to be clear and clarify.
212
And because you know it, you're initiating more, planning more, doing everything.
213
And you're sending the, are we still on for today text?
214
and you're organizing everything and you're bringing up the next step in the relationship and I've told you not to.
215
What are we?
216
You're making sure everyone feels okay.
217
You're slowly becoming the manager, the mother or the martyr in the relationship and he does what?
218
Steps back.
219
Not because he's evil and men ain't shit, but because you stepped forward so far, he's basically standing nose to nose with him.
220
There is something behavioral psychologists actually show quite clearly
221
when one partner over functions the other under functions
222
it's called a complementary pattern the more one takes responsibility the less the other feels required to do
223
so humans adapt to gaps and especially men
224
if there is no gap there is no motivation and
225
that is the painful part because women think
226
that he should just step up
227
and it's not his fault it's not your fault either it's what happens
228
when your nervous system confuses control with security so your body thinks
229
if I manage this properly I won't lose him
230
so you manage you direct you steer you optimize the whole relationship you help out more
231
and slowly you're no longer present in the relationship you're like this managing role you're running it you're not in it
232
And this dynamic, I see it all the time.
233
She's doing everything right on paper.
234
She's communicating her needs.
235
She's doing a lot of talking.
236
She's understanding.
237
She's patient.
238
She's everything, thoughtful, everything.
239
Mother Teresa, she plans the date.
240
She checks in and she feels completely unseen, underappreciated, like a placeholder, basically.
241
She sits there thinking, I'm doing everything.
242
Why does it feel like I'm getting crumbs?
243
And this is where it gets super uncomfortable because often the doing is the problem.
244
doing too much.
245
And now let's answer the question every woman asks, why did he stop showing up the way he did at the beginning?
246
At the beginning, you weren't managing him, were you?
247
You were doing your own thing.
248
You were in your own world, in your own lane.
249
You weren't trying to secure him yet or ask him how he is or if he took his vitamins this morning.
250
You were present and magnetic in your own life for your own self.
251
There's research from early stage relationship studies that show that novelty
252
and uncertainty activates dopamine
253
and reward pathways in men where there's space curiosity polarity there's pursuit in the early stages it creates
254
that pull from them he responds naturally but when
255
that shifts it stops there's actually research from early stage relationship studies showing
256
that novelty and uncertainty activate dopamine in reward pathways in men.
257
When there is space, curiosity, and polarity, there's pursuit.
258
In early stages, your softness and groundedness creates that pull from him.
259
He responds naturally from that.
260
And when that softness shifts into anxiety, when you care too much, that changes for him too.
261
When desire shifts into need, that pull disappears because masculine energy is drawn to feminine presence, not feminine management.
262
A man
263
and his grounded masculine does not want to be directed into devotion by you he wants to move towards
264
that feeling because he wants to the moment you start trying to secure him steer him
265
or correct him into being the man you want him to be the polarity
266
and him chasing you collapses and i know someone's going to hear this
267
and think so what i just shut up then i just don't do anything
268
or say anything ever no you this is not what it's about it's not about silence
269
it's about energy there's a difference between I need you to reassure me now
270
because I'm spiraling and when you don't confirm plans that doesn't work for me.
271
One is fear -driven and the other is grounded in your desire.
272
One is trying to control what he does and the other is communicating your standard and your own way of living.
273
A woman in this dynamic often feels like they're doing everything and getting back nothing but the doing,
274
the constant initiating and planning and explaining is often the very thing that's preventing him from stepping into his masculine fully.
275
You can't step into a space that's already occupied by you.
276
You can't pursue someone who's chasing you.
277
How are you going to chase each other?
278
And this is not about women blaming women.
279
It's about understanding the mechanisms.
280
You can't go on a hunt for a moose that's already standing on your doorstep.
281
And if you're always the one who's filling the silence, if you're always the one who fixes the tension,
282
if you are always the one who bridges the gap, babe, He never has to, no matter how much you argue with me about it.
283
And over time, you start feeling exhausted and resentful and demoralized by the whole thing.
284
And he starts feeling what?
285
Unnecessary, which is a dangerous place for masculinity to sit.
286
That's bad.
287
And this is exactly why relationships start with so much spark and slowly turn into this flat line.
288
Not because you're not enough, but because the dynamic shifts from polarity to management.
289
If you want my help on becoming the woman who naturally attracts devotion
290
and consistency and genuine effort without even chasing or managing a guy or overthinking,
291
then you should click the link in description for Unbothered Women where I'll show you exactly what
292
that looks like through a framework.
293
But let's get back into the video because now that you understand that changing the man will never actually shift the dynamic,
294
let me show you what actually does change the dynamic.
295
What actually creates the pull in a relationship?
296
The pull that you want is not tactics.
297
We've discussed that.
298
It's not the scarcity games because you can't sustain them.
299
If it's not withholding affection like you're rationing water in the desert, then what is it, Margarita?
300
It's self -possession, babe.
301
I don't mean independence in the I don't need no man finger -wagging way.
302
I mean a woman who is actually grounded in her own life, in her own identity and fulfillment and purpose
303
and she's not looking for a man to give her a life
304
and purpose and stabilize her she can like like him a lot she can want to be with him
305
but her mood and her self -worth do not depend on his okayness
306
and that is so magnetic and most importantly babe it's rare
307
because most women and i say this with love outsource their emotional stability that I see.
308
The moment they like someone, they're like, boom, have it.
309
One text can make their day.
310
One delay can ruin their evening.
311
The man can feel that, not like intellectually, but energetically.
312
There's research in emotional cognition and interpersonal neurobiology that shows humans unconsciously mirror and respond to each other's emotional stances and states.
313
We regulate off one another.
314
So if your nervous system is dysregulated and hyper -focused on him,
315
he will feel that pressure and also focus on himself because he knows you're focused on him too.
316
It feels heavy and the heaviness is not seductive.
317
Self -possession feels light because it gives the person freedom.
318
It feels spacious.
319
It feels like a woman who has her own center of gravity
320
and that is important because he can then be free to be himself.
321
It's not that you don't care or you're cold.
322
It's not pretending that you're busy either.
323
It's actually being busy.
324
A man can sense the difference between a woman who is pretending that she doesn't need him
325
and a woman who is genuinely enjoying her life and does not need him to regulate her.
326
One feels strategic and very manipulative and the other one's a strength.
327
And that is exactly what creates obsession in men.
328
And here's the feminine principle that explains all of this.
329
Desire is magnetic, need is heavy.
330
When you desire a man, there's an openness and a curiosity and a playful energy.
331
And when you need him, there's an urgency and there's tension and there's pressure and need feels like, please choose me.
332
I can't do life without you and I can't relax.
333
And desire feels like, I like you.
334
Let's see where this goes.
335
And that shift alone changes everything.
336
So what does this actually look like in real life?
337
Because I know you don't just want the theory.
338
You want to know what it looks like on a random Tuesday at 7 .30 when he hasn't confirmed the plan.
339
It looks like this.
340
You continue investing in your own life.
341
You keep your friendships.
342
You keep your own gym membership.
343
You don't cancel for him because he said yes last minute.
344
You keep your projects.
345
You keep your joy.
346
You do not disappear into him and his friends in his life.
347
You invite him into your life that you already love,
348
that is very different from building your entire world around him in the moment that you see some kind of potential.
349
It also looks like when he makes an effort, you receive it as opposed to trying to match it.
350
You don't immediately try and do the same thing.
351
You don't overcompensate.
352
You don't disregard it you just feel comfortable to say, wow, thank you.
353
Let him show up.
354
Let him make a plan, babe.
355
Let him pursue you.
356
Let him move into the space.
357
So many women sabotage this because a moment a man invests, they panic and they think, I have to prove I'm worth this.
358
So they start doing it back and they over -offer and they overdo.
359
And suddenly it's this competition that just is dumb, which sounds like good in theory that you're doing it back,
360
but energetically it removes the polarity self -possessed feminine energy receives
361
it does not compete
362
it also looks like regulated communication not silent treatments not suppression of your emotions not leaking anxiety either
363
there is a difference between it feels insecure
364
so i'm going to emotionally unload on you
365
and make you fix it right now and when you disappear for two days without saying anything that doesn't work for me.
366
One is dysregulated and one is normal and grounded and self -possessed.
367
You regulate your emotions before you bring it to someone else.
368
You don't expect him to be your nervous system regulator.
369

376

He exists, but he is only going to show up for the woman who's already chosen herself.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
