A member of Integration Nation asked Dr. Robert Glover about the concept of Positive Emotional Tension in relationships, particularly in the context of long-term partnerships with women. Dr. Glover explains that women, or the feminine, require emotional tension (positive or negative) to maintain attraction, arousal, and ongoing connection with a man. He acknowledges that men often dislike emotional tension, but he emphasizes its importance in relationships. He suggests that it’s a great masculine initiation to get comfortable with what makes men uncomfortable, such as emotional tension. He also points out that while men can create positive emotional tension, it doesn’t mean that women will stop creating negative emotional tension. In fact, the more positive tension a man creates, the more a woman will demand, as it raises the bar of expectation.
