Avoiding conflict because you don’t know what to say
Thinking sex or romance will fix everything
Trying to “win” arguments instead of connecting
Waiting for your spouse to change first
Bottling up your feelings to keep the peace
The reality is, most men inherit a dysfunctional approach to relationships.
We pick up patterns, expectations, and cultural messages that leave us underprepared for the real challenges of marriage.
Research shows that marriages where couples don’t seek outside guidance or support have a significantly lower success rate, with nearly half ending in divorce or long-term dissatisfaction.
It's time for the tough love approach.
Tough Love isn’t about being harsh or withholding. It’s about holding yourself and your relationship to a higher standard one built on resilience, dignity, and growth.
The Foundational Formula:
Vulnerability + Perseverance + Grace = Resilience

Founders of Tough Love for Men
We’re Luke and Ryan, and together we created Tough Love for Men. Between us, we have over 20 years of experience coaching men through the trials and tribulations of marriage, helping them overcome obstacles they once thought were impossible.
Our approach is tough love but not the kind that tells you to suppress your feelings.
We call you in, hold you accountable, and guide you to face your challenges head-on. Because we know that with the support of a powerful group of men on the same journey, you can achieve far more in your marriage than you could alone.
