I made that mistake for 10 years. I learned A LOT (about myself, and to never do that again). I just woke up one day and left. I was a good partner. I thought that was enough to get the recognition and the love back. I learned some people are incapable of truly loving back. I'm in a better place now.

@Mike M your dark view of women. "...the relationship is her tying to turn him into a looser..." Sound more like she is insecure and controlling. Unsure of who she is in this insane world. While the man in this story is trying to find himself, but is being suffocated from growing by the woman he is in a relationship with. While she stays in her comfortable zone, the man is resentful that he has to stay behind because she refused to grow with him.

“Not everything is supposed to become something beautiful and long-lasting. Sometimes people come into your life to show you what is right and what is wrong, to show you who you can be, to teach you to love yourself, to make you feel better for a little while, or to just be someone to walk with at night and spill your life to. Not everyone is going to stay forever, and we still have to keep on going and thank them for what they’ve given us.” ― Emery Allen

My relationship of almost a year ended about 4 months ago and it taught me so much. But some of the most important things are that; - When you have a feeling someone isn’t right for you, a “gut” feeling that this person is not helping you grow or supporting you in ways that matter to you then it’s time to let go. Don’t hold of in the hopes that they change or things change because you’re only delaying the inevitable. - You cannot control other people’s actions or decisions or expect anyone to change to fit your expectations. You can only control what you do and what you bring to the table. - Pain and suffering are a part of life. Not all relationships are meant to last forever and the end of one is simply another beginning. The beginning of our journey into self growth, self discovery and the realization that we need to love ourselves enough to demand and accept only what we truly deserve. Nothing less. ❤️Wishing everyone much happiness and love!✨

"Endings are not failures" is something that is a very difficult yet necessary pill to swallow. It's easy to wallow in self pity/grief after a breakup, but recognizing the experience as an opportunity for growth is so helpful in moving on and learning from that experience.
@johannak2256
@johannak2256 4 жыл бұрын
Very true, and I think the same applies to the endings of friendships, which are sometimes worse as they question a bond that is supposed to be one of the most stable in our lives next to family. But even then, when the necessary grieving part is over, we still carry memories and experiences that contributed in making us who we are. And even if a person is not to you what they used to be, it does not mean that what you lived with them was not real.

@Paddy I'm sorry. I know that's probably not what you want to hear. I know what you're feeling right know and it just plain sucks. But I can tell you that you're going to be ok. And one day you'll find someone who wants to be more than friends. In the meantime, take advantage of this time that you are single. Get to know yourself, build your self confidence. It's most important that you love yourself first and one day you'll find that special person. Hugs ❤

I study psychology and we learned about attachment theory and I realised that a rush of feelings for someone very early and this feeling that this is the one and omg I'm so in love is often there because that person reminds us of our parents and the sometimes destructive relationship we had with them and that we relive this now and that's why we have this rush of feelings. This was really a pattern for me where I fell for really beautiful guys who didn't want me over and over again and I became a shadow of myself when I was with them. Now I'm in a wonderful relationship since 1,5 years and it feels totally different, it feels safe and easy and warm, not complicated and hot and rushed like before. I really like that.

It's so necessary to ask ourselves "What do I bring to the table? Would I want to be in a relationship with myself?" when on the market for a relationship.

@Nowhere fast I don't think it only applies if a person has a serious problem. For example: You probably wouldn't want a partner who doesn't follow through with their word (like if they say they will meet you at a particular day/time but they always cancel or don't show up). That's a red flag that makes you think twice about continuing a relationship, because eventually it will get annoying. But it goes the same way for you--are you keeping the promises that you tell yourself? Do you follow through with your words? If you are unable to do that with yourself, you could have trouble keeping your word in relationships (this isn't true all the time, but you get the point). It's important to see what you can improve in yourself before starting a relationship so that you can be the best version of yourself, but also so that you're able to bring the healthiest version of you to another person. If you've been on the dating scene, you meet so many people who simply don't have a good relationship with themselves, and it shows. Sometimes, you are that person... Hope this helped. If you're ok with a partner being those things, then it's ok for you to be those things, it's all about our personal preferences.

I've rarely received back the amount of love i have given. Its always half reciprocated or barely reciprocated. and yesterday my boyfriend asked me " why do you love me so much despite everything?"..at that time i didn't think of it much but later.. i asked myself the same thing. why did i love him so much despite everything? despite knowing he'd never do the same things for me that I've done for him? and the answer was ...its because i don't know my worth. its because I don't love myself one bit. I have no love held for myself that's why I always have so much to give to others despite whatever they do. but I've decided to change this. I'm worthy of so much more. I'm worthy of so much love. And specifically I'm so worthy of all the love I am going to give myself. its gonna be hard because I do love him a lot. but he does not . So its time to let go and give myself the love that I've always craved so much from others.

Sometimes you need to go through a hard breakup or life event to gain the courage to find your true authentic self in a world that wants you to be someone you're not. To live for yourself and stick to your ideals takes tremendous courage, and if your partner doesn't value that about you then as an infp/infj, it's just not going to work without giving up freedom and peace. Also, over/under compromise is sacrifice, not compromise. If you choose to sacrifice out of your own decision, then own it, but if you're forced to sacrifice by others then I would open your eyes and think again. Good luck and much love.

In the compromise topic, I think what I've learned in relationships is that one, like you said, will always find things that are annoying and frustrating and you might even expect the other person to love you like you do but that's the thing, you will always end up very frustrated or even breaking up if you don't realize one simple rule : they are their own person before they are ours and we either love them for all that they are or we leave. But the act of understanding each of us love how we know to love someone, you might love to write poems and long texts and they might be awful with words but hold your hand, kiss your cheeks and often call you to ask how you are and that be their way of loving. And once we really accept them by who they are, compromising doesn't seem so awful because we're simply loving someone by who they are while being loved by who we are.

I met a girl, she said she does not engage in serious relationships, and I thought "Ha, I'm gonna change that". Glad I realized that early and started to accept her for who she is. We only dated 3 times, tho haha.. I'm all for commitment and love, so it just didn't work. But before that happened, for 2 years I've had this potential thing going on with my ex.. I'm non-monogamous and she said she wanted to be too (since day 1), but after 2 years of trying to make it work, she just couldn't do it.. so we had to end it. I've had the most intense relationship I've ever had with her and I'm grateful for that, at the same time I learned my lesson to not begin a relationship with a promise of change, but with acceptance. All of this just to say it has been a very valuable lesson to me recently. Thanks for this video!

Thank you Lana for that quote at the end. That really made me smile. You really can meet people for a night and spill your whole life story to them. It's beautiful, deep and uplifting. Then you go your separate ways and you have the memory of that night to last you a lifetime. It moves the soul. As for a relationship, develop unconditional self-worth. Forget having a deep meaningful relationship with anyone or anything (money,possessions) if you don't first have one with your self. Otherwise you will use people and possession to fill the void of lack of self-worth.

I'm not even exaggerating that this spoke to me on a profound level. Thank you Lana, it won't be easy but I'll try my best to work on all of them, but for now: #4 especially.

You're 10 years late, Lana. :( I've learned this the hard-way too, and your first point about honesty is the most basic and important foundation. I wasn't someone proud of myself, and my relationships reflected this. Then I said "okay, I'll be someone that someone else can be proud of." Of course that didn't work either. Then I just started to be proud of myself, to forgive, to make sense out of everything that repeated on my relationships, expectations, fears, lies upon lies. I thought some things were okay, when they were not, and vice-versa. I healed myself not through a fix, but through understanding. This tips are certainly useful, and we all should know them, but being honest isn't beat by anything, cause it's not something set on stone, it's a way of living, to steer us and find ourselves and our needs and wants, and decide if they're going to be honoured or trampled, by ourselves or by other-which is like doing it ourselves, as we accept them. Some may be well deserved, others just fantasies of past trauma, and we should be on guard and open to face their nature. Relationships, not only romantic ones, will not save us from something. They can help when the right person and will to change is involved, but expecting them to be our saviours (or us being their saviours) is going to lead to sure disaster. They're a plus, not something that everyone needs, so don't make your life and overall mood dependant on it. Good luck to everyone.

I think you need to look inward first and love yourself and be a quality person, so you can attract another quality person. Reciprocate and communicate are things you should want to do for a person you are with naturally...... not make it feel like a job.

She’s right!! In fact, many times, even though it hurts, endings are HUGE GIFTS wrapped in a bow!! It can set you free to be discovered by the RIGHT ONE. If you haven’t already, treat your pain like physical therapy sessions and push through to look at what lessons you learned. 1- What were the tale tale signs along the way? 2- What information did you ignore? 3- Have you been able to recognize your gifts and what makes you special? If not, there’s some of your work laid out for you. If you have, focus now on self-development. Focus are getting reacquainted with your best self, your potential, your passions. You’ll look up one day, & they’ll be standing right there! For those who’ve done that work but are still single, I say, put the same effort you’ve put in all your other accomplishments into meeting the right someone. Wish you the best!!

This year I have definitely put a lot of thought into who I am, and what qualities I may need in a potential future partner (even though I have a hard time imagining myself vulnerable in any intimate way because I have gone through heartbreak). I've also put a lot of thought in the person I want to become, and quite frankly i look up to you a lot. Not only because you offer me perspectives that give me clarity and reassurance, but also because you inspire me by your ability to be organic. I relate to how you perceive the world, to how you prefer to explore the world through knowledge and humble yourself through the experiences you've gone through, and so much more. I am also an INFJ-T, and it makes me feel more confident in who I am knowing that there's people like you who think the same way. My 21st birthday is a few days from now, and I have so much more clarity on the kinds of people I want in my life. The way I should perceive my experiences with people and life. I've realized how much there is to learn about the world and how much there is to see. Anyways, I'm going off on a tangent, but I really appreciate how much thought you put into your videos. You inspire me so much, so thank you for all the effort you put into implementing authenticity and your personality in your content. Im always excited to hear what you have to say. Much love -Alyssa

I had recently realized that I was putting in a TON of more effort into a friendship than they were and as soon as I stopped putting in that effort, I noticed that they had done nothing. Nothing seemed to change for them at all. My energy and my time and my love had been wasted. Although, I know I was counting on the potential instead of just letting the person be what they are, it still stings a lot. I am their roommate. We live together. It's angering and heartbreaking to see them with their actual friends. See them so much happier than I've ever seen them with me. It's a definite blow. Just knowing I won't matter as much as they do in their life is upsetting, but this video kind of calmed my nerves a bit. I was obsessing over the loss of a friend and I can't sleep properly because of it. I can't make them care about me more. So i wanna thank you for helping me learn from this.

I was in trouble with my partner. We broke up the relationship. We decided to work in make us feel better for ourselves and for each other. We love each other but we have very different languages of love and that was the main problem. Now we are getting to know each other better, it's like dating again... Don't know if it is correct but I think it's working and then, we hope to be in a relationship again. And what Lana says is soo right. Sometime we see in the other person what we don't see in ourselves. Also the "I can't remember this even do it makes you happy, I am like this so accept me" that's so bad. My partner is very bad at remembering things like important days, but he never told.me that "accept me because I am like this" No. And he is trying to learn about it. So be patience if you love that person but NEVER allow him or her to make you feel like trash. NEVER.

In the past year after my break up (from a 5 year relationship), I have met a few men that have made me love and learn about life a little bit more, and I’ll forever thank them for that. I love them dearly even until now. it’s not easy to accept the fact that their chapters in my life has (or will) come to an end but I’ll forever have them as friends to talk to. As each season goes by, it gets easier. As I meet more new people, it gets easier. But to be honest, my soul yearns for them now and then, and I still have thoughts like “I wish I could stay by you til the end”. But life moves on, and I am at peace with that.

After seing two of my relationships horribly end, I found it really hard to believe there is someone out there who would really "be for me". As you said, we should not hold our stakes too high but at the same time we got to know and remember when dating someone what is important to us. For my part I know that empathy, true listening and respect are the three most important things I'm looking for. I also know that I need someone who's thinking about how to live better, have a fuller life, especially on the mental health side of things. Seing your videos and getting glimpses of who you are through them gives me true hope that there's someone like that out there, somewhere. Thank you for that :)

I've always wanted happy ending with one person. But, life can't never give you what you want. I personally think relationship doesn't have any formula but with these foundation enumerated and well elaborated yeah. Very helpful. Kudos Lana! I love your personality, you look calm & collected. Muah!

I love this kind of videos:) I found myself to learn pretty much the same things too. Lot of times I accepted situations that were not ok to me, but I wasn't enough strong to say it and leave. It took me some time to understand that and I am now trying to change this behaviour working on myself. Thanks for this chat!

I've def learned the importance of discovering your own identity, and loving yourself before you can love someone else. You may think you love someone else but you can't properly fully give and receive love if you don't have love for yourself. Our relationships with others reflect/mirror the relationship with have with ourselves not too mention we manifest the same relationship repeatedly with different people til we acknowledge and heal the trauma that we're subconsciously needing to resolve. It's vital to know who you are, to have your identity separate from the job titles, roles and relationships you have otherwise we're always identifying with and defining ourselves by external things then if we lose them, we'll lose our sense of self.

oh yeah and def putting the other person on a pedestal, like the quote says, it makes you question your own worth and then later once you’re liberated from it you realize that person was never as holy as you perceived them to be... it was simply the perspective of them that you gave yourself, probably due to past conditioning.

Something I learned is to be open to work with your partner regarding issues. It's not always you against them, it's you alongside them against the problem

This is the first vid of yours recommended to me and I'm really grateful. This is exactly the answer I was praying for lately. All the points you made relate to what I'm going through right now because I'm very much in love with my best friend but we can't be in a relationship since he isn't ready and has too much going on in life to really commit himself. He knows how I feel, and he might have some interest in me too? But I respect it and agree that now's not the time for me to get into a relationship either. And I don't want to force him to change. It's been so painful and anxiety-inducing though, because I keep thinking of "what if's". "What if we'll only ever be best friends even when we accomplish our goals in life?" "What if I scare him off now that he won't ever consider me more than a friend?" and so on. I really love how straightforward yet calming and comforting you were at explaining things. I think it'll be easier now to accept that for now, I have to let these feelings go and focus on my own goals. I'm now a fan and subscriber of yours. Keep making videos like this when you feel like it. Felt authentic and was well-put.

What Gr8 comment! I bet that’s painful to fall in love with your best friend and not at the same time. Keep listening to relationship content and work on you and as this passes or as you learn to rest and maybe release, it’ll open you up to the love of your life at just the right season of your life. Until then, enjoy your YOU journey!! The discovery could end up being a FANTASTIC ride!!! Wish you the best!!

My last 'relationship', if i can call it that way bc it wasn't anything oficial neither long lasting, has really helped me. Even though i screwed up at the end mainly thanks to my anxiety, it showed me a side a of me i never could have seen by myself, and pushed me foward to decide and make some changes in my life, about my behaviours and bad habits, and most importantly it showed me how bad the relationship with myself had truly been up to this point in my life. How could i ever be honest with anyone else if i wasn't being honest with myself, bottling up and avoiding thoughts and emotions? It helped me learn the importance of being vulnerable with the ones i care about; the importance of learning about different attachment styles, resolving my childhood traumas, and also that i need to stop being so hard with myself all the time and appreciate more who i am. Even though we haven't spoke again, i'm really thankful to this person for being there in the perfect moment in my life when i needed this push. Even though these last couple of months I've been really sad, i can say that I've never felt more happy and alive, feeling like i'm starting to be truly free again. And sometimes it really hurts to think about the fact that i can't let them know all of these thoughts, and that maybe they were left with this past image of me. But i like to think that things happen for a reason, so what matters is that i learn from my mistakes and that I keep going foward, cherishing the moments we shared and being thankful for them being there for me when i needed it the most c:
