#526 - Why You Chase Women But Don’t Enjoy Sex
from The Gary Gunn Show Podcast · host Gary Gunn
In this episode, I explain why you can feel a powerful urge to chase a woman but then feel underwhelmed once you actually sleep with her. The answer lies in neurochemistry. I break down the difference between wanting and liking, and how dopamine drives anticipation, fantasy, and pursuit. Often the chase produces a stronger chemical reward than the experience itself. I also talk about how this can lead men to become addicted to pursuit rather than genuine connection. Most importantly, I share how I think about regulating that dopamine spike so attraction does not control you and you can engage with women from a calmer, more grounded state.
