Why Do High-Achieving "Good Men" Often Face Breakups, Separation, or Divorce?
Dwayne Klassen - The Coach For Remarkable Men
Going through a life transition, challenge or perfect storm? I help high achieving men like you navigate through the storm and ignite the remarkable man within to create the remarkable life and results you desire.
You did everything right. You built a life that provides stability, love, and opportunity. You worked tirelessly to ensure your family never goes without.
You’ve been a good man—faithful, supportive, and steadfast.
So why is your relationship crumbling?
Why do so many high-achieving men wake up one day to hear, “I’m not happy anymore”?
Here’s the hard truth most men don’t hear until it’s too late: being a "good man" is often not enough to sustain the feminine energy in a relationship.
The feminine thrives in connection, passion, and emotional depth. While men often value stability and provision as love's ultimate expression, the feminine yearns for spontaneity, mystery, and emotional adventure. When these needs go unmet, chaos emerges—not out of malice, but as a cry for the connection her soul is craving.
The Chaotic Nature of Feminine Energy
The feminine is like the ocean—beautiful, powerful, and unpredictable. It demands presence, leadership, and emotional engagement. Many men unintentionally create emotional safety nets but provide little polarity. She doesn’t want a perfect life; she wants a life that feels alive.
When a good man becomes consumed by his work, goals, or the pursuit of providing, the connection begins to wither. Women often feel unseen, unheard, or taken for granted—not because their partner doesn’t love them, but because she feels he’s unwittingly checked out emotionally in his drive to succeed.
His work might get his masculine energy, but she's starving for it!
Why Do Many Women Leave “Good Men”?
Women rarely leave for lack of love. They leave because they feel their soul is starving. They leave when the spark of adventure and passion fades into routine.
The truth is, being a good provider isn’t the same as being a remarkable partner. A remarkable man leads not just in his work, but also in his relationship. He ensures his partner feels seen, cherished (not on a pedestal) and feels safe to be in her feminine energy, because he is in his authentic masculine power.
**Important Truth**
Both men and women are also dealing with unconscious attraction bonds. I'm not talking about physical attraction, I'm referring to the trauma bond that is created from your childhood wounds. Many women are seeking the same archetypal man that their father was. Yes, complete with the abuse, abandonment and uncertainty.
This is often why providing all the comforts, safety and security you think she needs is not enough. It's also why she may leave or is having an affair with a bad boy. Someone you might consider an asshole. A man that will treat her like a toy, disrespect her, and leave her wanting more.
For most men, this dark desire of the feminine will never make sense to the rational mind.
How to Keep Your Relationship Solid—and Your Soul Intact?
The key isn’t to sacrifice more or work harder for her love. It’s to shift your focus:
Prioritize Emotional Connection
Be fully present when you’re with her. Put the phone down. Look her in the eyes. Ask her how she feels—and genuinely listen.

Bring the Passion Back
Surprise her. Plan a spontaneous date. Write her a love letter. Reignite the playfulness and unpredictability that once swept her off her feet.
Lead in Your Masculine Energy
Women crave a man who knows his worth and leads with confidence. Be decisive, assertive, and unapologetically yourself.
Make Yourself a Priority | You Deserve To Be Happy Too!
Your relationship will crumble if you lose yourself in the process. Invest in your health, your passions, and your growth. A remarkable man isn’t just a great partner; he’s also deeply connected to his own purpose. You also deserve to be happy! You can't keep the relationship going if the contribution and fuel is a one-sided. Never make someone a priority if you are an option in their life. This includes relationships.
Understand Her Cycles
The feminine energy ebbs and flows. It’s not linear. Learn to dance with her emotions instead of resisting them. Your grounded presence during her storms will deepen her trust in you.
You Can Be Good and Be Her Champion Too!
Being a good man is a great foundation, but to truly thrive in your relationship, you must embrace the emotional, passionate, and adventurous side of life. That’s what she fell in love with—and what she still craves. Yes, be the good guy but also embrace the unpredictable and spontaneous nature of the bad boy within.
Remember, a remarkable man isn’t just a champion for others. He’s a champion for himself, his mission, and the people he loves.
It’s time to make yourself—and your connection—a priority again.
You’ve got this, brother.
Be Remarkable!
