I'll keep this as brief as possible... My personality is volatile as f*ck. I lose it over tiny things, one minute I am Alpha the next a complete girl that needs a cuddle. My fiancee has seen all of these emotions. I lift, I am bigger than most guys and am very attractive and tall. Most blokes see me as an alpha, in a social scenario I am usually the alpha.

Anyway, my girl just doesn't respect me. Today I crashed my car and I expected atleast a text asking if I was ok, and when it happened I freaked out in a beta manner (she was in the car).

I have threatened to leave her many times. Sometimes she will beg me to stay and others she will happily let me walk. Sometimes she can be very loving and others very cold. We also argue alot.

I am concerned she no longer respects me. She often talks to me badly etc.

What are my options? We live together btw.

How could she respect a guy that acts like you do? Have you ever asked yourself that question?

You should find inner strength and leave to go work on YOU!

I haven't been around long, but what I gleam from the situation is this...

First of all, alpha isn't the "way" you act sometimes, or how your friends look at you. It is a way of living and presenting yourself to the world. Every AFC has times when he appears in control and exhibits alpha behaviors. In the short blurb you posted, I got a couple things

1. Volatite personality is AFC/beta behaviors, confident men are in control all the time
2. You expected something a text from your girl? for what? validation? sympathy? Alphas don't need that either
3. You threatened to leave... beta all the way. Why? because you didn't leave = empty threats. And your using this to control her? I don't need to elaborate on that
4. Argue alot? Could go with number 1, but also shows potential incompatitibilty. This would suggest oneitis, meaning you are afraid to leave.
5. How do your friends think your alpha? If your talking about it, that's certainly not alpha

Size, build, and attractiveness have NOTHING to do with being alpha. May get you laid more, but won't do much else in that spectrum...

I apologize if it sounds harsh, but that's one random strangers opinion on a message board...

One minute you are alpha and the next a complete girl huh? Your whole post was complete girl style, the only thing alpha was the word alpha you put in there.

Sounds more like your body is alpha but your mind is complete girl. I don't think you deserve the respect you ask for.

Your fiance? You plan on marrying a disrespectful girl? That doesn't sound very alpha either. Who you trying to fool man?

You need to get your feet on the ground dude. Your far out there. I think a little to far for forum posts to fix.

The good news is that you recognize it and the fact that you're making a post about it implies that it is bothering you enough to the point that you want to change. You can change.

This is partly why my last relationship ended too. I wasn't secure enough in myself and every now and then I would 'act up' as you have described and expect my girl to reassure me that everything was going to be OK. It was a very hard, brutal lesson to learn, but women aren't going to put up with that kind of crap no matter how good looking you are.

The good news is that I am young and you sound like you're still in your 20's early 30's so we have time to correct the issue. Also, don't make the mistake of thinking that you're entirely broken either. You sound like you've got a lot of positive qualities about you, you've just got to work on the emotional aspect.

If you want to make things work go over to th married redpill reddit and read the sidebar. Read it even if you decide to dump her.

You need to develop more masculine traits such as controlling your emotions. You have a very feminine mindset.

Seems like you have the pysical worked out. You just have to master mental game.

Ya bud you need to learn to be the rock in a stormy sea of emotions. Learn to keep a cool head in difficult times and don't let your emotions controll you so much. Life will generally beat that into you. Focus on keeping your cool as much as possible and learn to not fly off the handle and freak out. Being in control will make girls (and men) have respect for you.

The NFL has a comment for some players. "looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane" When you wrecked your car, anything more than a "F@CK" and being silently pissed for 10 seconds ISN"T alpha. Being but hurt because she didn't ask is also not alpha. I dropped my bike on my leg {doing about 30} once in school. As I limped through the hallway, I hear a bass voice, "BEEEEK, hear you dropped the bike. How's the bike?" I told him {6'4" black guy} "thanks b!tch, how about you ask how I'm doing?" His reply was "I see you walking" Then we both started laughing.....He didn't give me any sympathy as long as I could walk.... He would have moved heaven and earth if I'd been seriously hurt, but he knew I wasn't, So he didn't ask.You are supposed to be the strong one in a relationship, she's not going to ask.....

Drop this one, move out and put on your big boy pants emotionally before you look for a permanent relationship. You need to work on your self control as much as you've worked on your muscles......You CAN....

Well you just explained in your own message why she doesn't respect you. You don't follow through with your threats.

You have become a toothless tiger to her. You threaten to leave her-- but go nowhere. Only to do it again and again. She has learned that she can walk all over you and your threats are empty.

What can you do here? If i were you i would follow through with action behind my threat. Tell her to get out of your life because your relationship is over. Kick her to the curb.

Without respect , you have no relationship. Without respect you are wasting your time.

Respect is the foundation to ALL relationships. Without it you have nothing.

Can he establish respect? And until then they aren't talking or doing much?
Someone either respects you or they don't. She has already been operating in the mentality of " he won't do anything about it anyways." Aka she doesn't give a crap-- no respect. "

The only way to make someone like that respect you is for them to realize what they have lost. Only way for that to happen is to kick her to the curb.

It is just a repetitive merry go round if he doesn't.

$#/t test. Him getting mad. Them fighting. Him threatening to leave. Her calling his bluff. Him doing nothing. Her laughing at him because the threat was once again empty. Repeat repeat repeat.

Not the way any man should spend the next few years of their life.

Bottom line is if a woman sees your value, and if she knows you will walk and not give her a second thought, she won't disrespect you.

If you show her you are weak emotionally, and you will just shrug your shoulders and keep her no matter how many $#!t tests she throws, she will never respect you and she will make your life a living hell and enjoy doing it.

It is too late. Once respect is lost it is NEVER coming back. Ultimatums don't work. They just show how weak you are.

She isn't your mommy or the man in the relationship although you are asking her to be one.
Grow up. Learn a little self-discipline and resilience and then think about a relationship. You sure as hell aren't ready for one now.

You have one option only. Become a man worth of respect. You are not that at present.

Volatility is the mark of an insecure man who hasn't paid enough attention to how he handles his relationships. You are behaving like a child.

Growing up and becoming a man who garners respect involves training yourself to keep your emotions in check and developing an internal locus of control. Right now you are reactive. Do you know who else is defined as reactive? Women and children.

The ONLY way to develop into this kind of man is through awareness and practice. Next time you observe yourself emotionally, reacting, take a deep breath and say to yourself "I can handle this like a man with self-control". In this way you will interrupt the pattern that now has control of you.

A measured, thought-out response to another person's disrespect toward you is highly preferable to an angry outburst. In place of an angry outburst, a man should effect a ruthless, measured response. That means you don't act or react until you've digested the transgression and decided to take a specific action based upon what you deem will be most beneficial to you and even the people around you.

Women need to be disciplined and sometimes punished. Even they know this, deep down, although few will admit it. They get a thrill when they are disciplined by a man who has self-control. They recoil in fear when disciplined out of rage.

A man has one tool and one tool only to discipline a women. This tool is the removal of attention. Removing your attention from a woman hurts her. It gets her attention and causes her t straighten up her act. If it doesn't have this effect on her, she needs to be put out of your life.

Never, ever, EVER discuss punishment with a women. Just do it. Back away and let her feel the pain. IF you engage in discussion, you lose.

Finally, a woman in fact SHOULDN'T respect you if you are volatile. She should leave. Volatile men are selfish, childish, and dangerous.

Having said that, there can be times when showing anger to a woman is effective and is the right thing to do, but you do it in a controlled manner, throttling it out with intent as if you're using a valve. Just like in a steam engine, you want that steam to do useful, directed work and not blow up the entire works.

A man must be head and shoulders above a woman, and in fact all women NEED a man who she considers above her. If you react to things emotionally like all women do, she loses respect for you. You are feeding her back feminine energy to her... a very bad thing.

Men, listen up:
Your role is to be the ROCK in the relationship. That means you are the protector (and you even protect her from your own rage), the guiding light, the guru, the decision-maker, and the director of the relationship. She must have an innate understanding that SHE is conforming to YOU. She is the clay, and she must be made to conform to your life and your kingdom.

Within those parameters she is free to relax into her feminine core and she will be in natural submission to you. You are also free to show her kindness (in measured quantities) and protection because she knows instinctively that she is there to conform to you, her KING, and you are creating that exciting push-pull of dread and affection.

Right now, OP, you aren't worthy of respect from a woman. Get on the path to becoming a non-reactive architect of your life. You don't have to start out perfectly. Just getting on that path and striving toward developing yourself into a man who garners respect is enough. Just step onto the path with decision. Learn how to garner respect from both men and women equally. When men respect you, women will automatically respect you.

The rule of the day is Respond when a response serves your purposes, but don't React.

Is there anyway he can reel in respect without leaving fully? Perhaps by a no contact and flip in interest.

He can kick her out, spin plates if he can and if she sees him with a higher SMV than before MAYBE she MIGHT be interested in trying again. This term it would be on his terms IF he has learned self-control and how to set boundaries. To be honest she sounds a little flakey as well (not that I blame her, it is hard to be consistent when your man is pre-menstrual all the time).
