Switching between “alpha” and “beta” behaviours creates inconsistency because it reveals emotional reactivity. When things feel good, a man is calm and decisive. When uncertainty hits, he starts over-explaining, over-giving, or seeking reassurance. That’s not strategy; that’s fear leaking through behaviour.
Women don’t analyse this logically; they feel the instability. They don’t know which version of you they’ll get, and that kills polarity over time.
As we already know alpha isn’t being cold or dominant 24/7. It’s emotional self-control. Warm when you choose, silent when you choose, decisive regardless of outcome. No mood swings based on her responses.
If your behaviour changes based on validation or fear of loss, it’s not character, it’s performance. Masculinity is consistency under pressure, not switching masks.
Could you provide examples of the difference you've observed in alpha and beta behavior, and how you believe childhood trauma would influence their decision making?

Can you elaborate on that?
switching between alpha and beta behaviours creates inconsistency in behaviour and personality/character.
Well, yeah, if you're switching between them.
Most of them are traits and behaviors you should possess at all times.
As for the beta/comfort traits and behaviors, the woman has to earn them. Unearned beta/comfort is repulsive (think saying "I love you" on a first date), but when it's earned and given, she'll want you more.

@Kloi I felt as though I was at the gas station filling up my tank.
