My name is Steve. I’m a dyed-in-the-wool Shogun Method follower. Since you’re here, I’m going to assume that you’re one of us.
And if you’re a married man, you must pay attention right now. (And if you’re not, continue reading also because you’ll pick up a useful thing or two about the true nature of women.)
We’re going to talk about a few harsh truths here, so brace yourself.
I’m going to give you some advice that you need to hear. Hell, advice that every married man needs to hear. It’s that important. Trust me on this.
Before We Start…
Hold your thoughts right there for a second. I know what goes through a married man’s head when he hears the word “advice”…
OK, here comes a piece of “advice” telling me I need to “spend more quality time with my wife”. I’ve heard that shit so many times that I want to fucking puke.
You know what? You’re absolutely right. Screw that nonsense.
But I’ll tell you this: You won’t find that kind of whimsical, lovey-dovey bullshit “advice” here. This isn’t some clickbaity Buzzfeed crap written by a clueless adolescent who’s never touched a woman in his life. This is an honest-to-God real-life story of how my marriage went from a sexless chore to the greatest thing in the world.
I’m not joking!
Confession Time…
Let me confess something to you. It’s something I’ve never told anyone out of sheer embarrassment. (Apart from Derek Rake, of course.)
I’ve been with the same woman all of my life.
We met as teenagers. She was my first, and I was hers.
We lasted throughout high school, then before I knew it, we were in our mid-twenties. We had everything we could have wanted – a life of domestic bliss and unrequited love. Our sex was beyond anything I could imagine. We connected on an emotional level, not just a physical one. Every time we made love, it was better than the last.
I knew she was the perfect woman. I’d never need anyone else for as long as I lived.
What’s so embarrassing about that, you ask?
Unfortunately, that’s not the embarrassing part. This is:
I can count on one hand the times we’ve had sex in the last few years.
There came a day when the whole sex thing just stopped. No reason. No real explanation. Just a rapid surge in excuses.
“Not tonight, I’m not feeling up to it.”
“Do we have to? I have to be up early tomorrow.”
“I’ve got a throbbing headache.”
And it gets worse. In the past year, I can count how many times we’ve had sex on zero hands.
Know what I mean?
There’s a lot of guys out there agreeing with me right now. I can feel your frustration on the other side of the screen. It’s a pretty shitty feeling, isn’t it?
Sex Is A Woman’s Trump Card
Here’s the truth…
As husbands and boyfriends, we’re at the mercy of women’s libido.
Make no mistake. With sex, she calls the shots. And that’s enough to drive any man crazy, not to mention the unbearable mind games which come along with it.
I mean, when she stops wanting to make love to you, you can’t help but wonder…
“Is she cheating on me?”
“Is she falling out of love with me?”
“Am I losing my touch?”
If you’re having the same thoughts, welcome to the club. But, that’s not the worse part…
It’s possible that she has probably met someone else.
Every Woman Has The Tendency To Cheat
Sure, your wife would never do that, right?
I mean, you’re 100% sure that she’s committed to you, yes? She’d never betray your wedding vows in such a cruel and heartless way, true?
Still, I want you to keep an open mind and consider all possibilities…
Something, whatever it might be, is demanding all of her attention and you’re the one suffering because of it.
She might have been flirting with that new guy at work. Her ex might have contacted her and she’s been toying with the idea of meeting him. Maybe she didn’t stay at her friend’s house last weekend.
All possible. All likely.
But don’t blame her. Like some men, women are slaves to their emotional urges – simple as that. She can’t control herself. She’s a robot programmed to chase the things she can’t have. She’s always going to look for a better deal. (This is known as Hypergamy – a key Shogun Method concept that Derek has covered extensively inside the SM3 program).
Managing Hypergamy Is Your Responsibility
I’m going to sound like a chauvinist for saying this, but fuck it. If your wife or girlfriend is starting to slip from your grasp, it’s now becoming your problem for not training her properly.
Sounds harsh?
It absolutely is, but take heart: Because there’s shining light at the end of the tunnel.
In the same way she can’t be blamed, neither can you. You’re not a master of the female mind, so how are you supposed to know how to control her?
Now, here’s the thing…
A woman’s mind is a labyrinth of complexity, and navigating it can sometimes feel like wandering through a maze in the dark. It happened to me, and if you’re reading this, it’s most probably happening to you too.
What’s the answer?
Well, it took me years to find a solution. Yes, literally years.
I went through endless books, went to $10,000-a-pop seminars where I was given “advice” by idiots (cough, Pickup Artists, cough). It was all bullshit. None of it worked. In fact, the more “advice” I read, the less sex I had!
So, for a while, I truly believed there was nothing I could do. I was a helpless, sexless loser stuck in a marriage I quickly came to despise.
And then, something unbelievable happened to me…
How I Became A Guinea Pig In A Social Experiment
Jim, a friend from college, had heard my struggles. He then told me about this “social experiment” that he was part of, and forwarded me this email –
“Subject: Phoenix Rising”
“I’m looking for test subjects for a new Shogun Sequence I’m working on. If you’re struggling with your marriage or your relationship, you’ll be a good fit. If you’re interested, please reply. -Derek Rake”
Of course, I was highly skeptical. After some quick research, I found out this mysterious Derek Rake was indeed some kind of relationship guru, if not a highly unorthodox one.
Reading his blog shook me at my core.
Enslavement?
Mind Control?
Emotional Manipulation?
It all sounded too much for me. I’m not a manipulator, I’m a good guy. Or, so I thought.
So, like an idiot, I ignored Jim’s forwarded email.
Here’s where it got a little weird…
You see, I just couldn’t get the idea out of my head for days. I’d tried pretty much everything under the sun to get my wife’s sex drive revving again, and it had all failed.
One more attempt wouldn’t hurt, right?
Phoenix Rising (It Only Took Five Minutes)
Jim told Derek about me and my situation, and he had agreed to let me in.
And after some more emails back and forth, I found myself staring at something called the Phoenix Rising Sequence.
A Shogun Sequence, Derek explained, was a short script which overloaded a woman’s conscious brain, allowing my suggestions to implant firmly in her subconscious.
“She can’t resist your comments. She can’t reject your comments. You will become the voice in her head that tells her she’s craving sex more than she’s ever craved it in her life.”
That same night, after learning the Phoenix Rising script word-for-word, I laid down next to my wife in bed. As always, she faced away from me, completely silent.
“I keep dreaming about this one particular scenario,” I told her.
She turned around to face me.
“I need to tell you. I can’t get it out of my head.”
My wife’s interest was piqued. She went to say something, but I stopped her. The look on her face was something I hadn’t seen in years.
“Well, I wake up and find myself on an empty beach. I look around, and can’t see a single soul. Overhead, there’s a deep red sunset with dashes of a silver sky behind, and in the distance is a gleaming white ocean.
Suddenly, I feel a hand against my back…”
She fell deadly silent, but I could see in her eyes she was already fixated on my story.
“A soft, sensual voice tells me not to turn around. I feel cold, hard fingertips press against my neck, and then the hand runs down my chest and onto my stomach.”
For the first time in as long as I could remember, my wife shuffled herself right next to me and put her hand on my arm.
“Carry on,”she said.
“I feel the person’s body press against me from behind. Their smooth, silky skin feels amazing against my own. Another hand comes around and continues caressing me; gently moving their fingers across my body.”
This was only the halfway point, and already my wife had an energized, electrified look in her eyes. It was a look which brought back so many memories. Almost instantly, blood started pumping around my body like never before.
“Then the voice tells me to turn around…
I look up, and it’s you staring at me. You don’t say a word to me, and you push me down against the sand and climb on top of me…”
One more line to go, but I didn’t even have time to get it out. As though she were completely under my control, my wife did exactly as I described in the Shogun Sequence. Her leg straddled me, she pushed me down, and out of some renewed confidence, I did what Derek told me to do.
I told her to stop.
Needless to say, she completely didn’t expect me to react like that.
She looked at me like I had just dangled a winning lottery ticket in her face and then ripped it up. Her arms were resting on my chest, and I could feel her heart almost pumping out of her chest.
And then, I delivered the killer blow.
“From that moment, I can’t contain myself. We both lose control and have impulsive, animalistic sex on an empty beach. We can be as loud as we want, without having to worry about anyone hearing.
The rest of the details are hazy, but all I’ve been thinking about for days is making that dream a reality.”
Right then and there, my life changed forever, for the better.
And I don’t just mean my sex life. Not only did this short script instantly turn my wife into a sex-crazed seductress, but our long-dead emotional connection came screaming back. One night of incredible passion rekindled the fire from our youth in a way I never thought possible. It was magical.
I Can’t Explain Why It Worked. You Just Have To Experience It Yourself
Look, I can’t explain why and how it worked.
Until then, Derek Rake was nothing more than a name on a screen, but within three messages, he changed everything for me – all because I took a chance.
And the Phoenix Rising sequence only took five minutes for it to work. To call it “magical” would be an understatement.
These Shogun Sequences have become the secret sauce of my married life. No matter what I want her to do, all I do is consult my this secret “Bible” of mine and I can manipulate her into anything. It didn’t even have to be anything sexual. When I use these Shogun Sequences on my wife, she becomes subservient and compliant to my requests.
With that in mind, here’s my final confession; the only confession that matters.
When I said I wasn’t a manipulator, I lied.
I had manipulated my wife back into loving me.
But, here’s the thing…
If being a manipulator means I get to keep up this life of endless sex and eternal devotion from my wife, then guess what? I’m perfectly fine with that. And I think you’ll agree with me.
