He's not at all saying you have to live without love or that you shouldn't Trust or shouldn't be in love. He's talking about how the fear of being alone prevents that. You will know you've reached a place of emotional maturity when you can give love and not be afraid how it's going to turn out, not be hurt if it doesn't work out the way that you want. And then what you need to do is find someone else who has emotional maturity that wants to give you love. That it's beautiful. Take it from someone who lived through many years of hurt and is now had 17 years of joy

This topic is a very tricky one. You rightly say love is all about giving without expecting anything in return. But what if our partner doesn't share the same ethic. What if you see that the partner is a constant taker, without any consideration for you and your well being? One may continue to 'love' the partner, but choose to separate because a relationship entails a shared agreement to 'be there for the other'. Think of it this way: Most parents love their children unconditionally - yes - but they expect the children to behave themselves - contribute around the house - study well and so on. Love is unconditional only when there is no 'other person'. Example: I love Beethoven's 9th Symphony. Love is conditional in the world (people, relationships, events). Example: I love my parents, but I expect to be treated right. Be careful of this 'unconditional love' business - it might do more harm than good to you. It might mislead you to believe that one has to constantly give, accept and be emotionally abused. Standing up for yourself and saying no is also self love.

Nobody other than God can truly love you unconditionally. Those who have a sense of God--spiritually from within--not organised religion pushed from the outside--such people have an easier time and are indeed blessed. But all of us seek His love, we are just looking for it in the wrong place. At some time in life, we are guided to the right direction. All those people who are watching this video are being guided by a higher power, whether the know it or not.

This is true totally, but also we can't continue to attempt to have relationships with people who are not at that point ready able willing to give love we often get involved with people not deserving. And I'm not saying it's not okay to love those people we should love everyone, but if you give everything of yourself to someone who's going to give you nothing that is not a healthy relationship. It sounds like you're already in the place where you're ready to give love, what you need to do is find a partner who is emotionally mature town and we'll give love returns your romantic love and can give the way that you do. Then you're in a healthy relationship.

I just have to be honest with them and hopefully they are willing to give and work with me as much as I do for them.

This is extremely vital in parenthood when cultivating holistically healthy and happy children. I suffered greatly due to the fact that someone such as my mother who was rarely shown love from family due to losing her parents at t years old and being raised by her siblings and was considered a burden. So it is a cycle that we keep passing down from generation to generation. It has affected every level of my life experience and still processing and transmuting in order to be a healthy self reliable person that is capable of becoming my true self and not allowing it to carry over into future generations. That what a lot of us our doing during our path to awakening.

So valuable the message of "self love and acceptance of self company and finding inner strength from it" - I would only add, that based on my own painful experiences, "giving unconditionally" in a relationship or to other people in general needs to be balanced, otherwise it becomes an abuse. I used to give and give and give unconditionally, which was often taken for granted by self interest and when I needed their help, majority would turn their backs on me - I realised that you do need to think of your own needs, you cannot just putting others above yourself and neglecting yourself in the process whether its emotional or physical. That does not mean you are insecure and needy, but you love yourself fully and from that space you deserve equall energy exchange, you give unconditional love, but you also deserve to receive that unconditional love from another, you don’t want to become someone who "people pleasing" having no regards for its own needs.

Everything you said is absolutely spot on. The fear of being alone caused me to bounce from one destructive relationship to another- not anymore. Yes, I'm still single, but that's ok. It's an opportunity, a gift, to be able to understand myself better with the knowledge that he will arrive in my life exactly when he's meant to.

I was in a relationship once with a woman who was insecure like this. She was incredibly nice most of the time, but on a fairly regular basis would do totally crazy things that stressed me out. She was also very accusing when I failed to meet one of her unspoken expectations. I felt forced to break up with her eventually. If she had just been chill, I would have been totally happy with her. Edit: I tried to teach her some stuff about humility which I found personally useful, but I think she could not understand the difference between humility and insecurity, and it made her even crazier.

This dude is sooo laid back. His insights are great, and very true. Desperation, attachment, are toxic to a healthy relationship. The solution? Learn to be comfortable in your own skin, alone, communing with the great silence. Love comes, strangely, when we've reached such a state of completeness. Pushing for a relationship before that stage is reached is an act of will. D. H. Lawrence describes this very well, that willfulness is anathema to love. Yes, embrace being alone, get very relaxed and accepting of that state, and almost prefer it, then love almost magically arrives.

I didn't get this concept until I was well into my 30s and wasn't able to fully practice and live in this truth in my day-to-day life until my 40s. It was a two-way street: my parents had high expectations to earn their love and in turn, I created expectations for all my friendships and romantic relationships and 'burned' through people who disappointed me and failed to live up to them. I would also jump through hoops for certain relationships in order to acquire their 'love.'

Yes what were really talking about here can be called emotional maturity. And you can't have emotional maturity until you have faced yourself your life your past your own demons and dealt with them. Because if you don't you're just going to act on repressed emotions. You may not even know why you behave the way you do sometimes. Once you do that you're in a place where you're capable of being in a relationship, but then it's also key and he did mention this, to choose a partner who is also emotionally mature. If you are both emotionally mature, and you both have loved you're going to be so busy trying to give to one another and that you don't worry about taking and you don't have to worry about it because you're going to be giving to each other. if one or more of you has not reached that point your focus is on what you need because you are not filling your own needs.

As a recovering codependent and SLD, I think I will probably never have a healthy, loving and happy relationship. I'm sharply anti-social and yet I absolutely despise being alone, regardless of the fact that I spend the vast majority of my time alone anyway. I definitely don't "love" myself, I simply don't know how. The way I generally don't love the human species as a whole probably plays a sizable factor in that. I simply can't imagine loving someone like myself and quite honestly I don't think I will ever reach that point where I'll be able to look in the mirror and say, honestly, "I love YOU, man in the mirror.", it all just sounds like wishful thinking. Without someone, I feel empty. Even with someone, that much doesn't change by very much if at all. I am simply existentially miserable, with no light at the end in sight. But as cold as the nights are in my bed by my self, I would rather be alone than be with someone who plays with my heart and my head, someone who wants to play with me and then discard me. And, going further than that, I would above all probably just rather to euthanize myself so I don't have to fuckin' ruminate and worry about any of it anymore. I'm so fucking tired.

I am only 5 minutes into the talk and so much of what he says resonates with me. Reflecting on what he is saying, I realize that I treasure the time I have with myself. However, this wasn't always the case. I sincerely believe what has helped me embrace my time by myself is my daily meditation practice. My practice has taught me how to be comfortable with my own thoughts and subsequently be comfortable alone by myself.

I love my own company, that's not to say I don't like being with others or that I have felt loneliness because I have. Thank you for this message it really helps in understanding love from another perspective. Gratitude 🙏

I have always struggled with being an asocial person, but deep down I am happy being on my own. I went through a brief period where I felt like I needed a relationship because of comments others made and it didn’t work because I wasn’t being my authentic self and I was not confident in my social skills. I am getting better at it but I know I have to appreciate myself if I ever want healthy friends or relationships. Your channel has helped me to better appreciate being a solitary person in a world that sees solitude as strange.

You're absolutely right. Sometimes in life we do make decisions out of fear to avoid loneliness. But you don't know that you're actually putting yourself in hell.

Love your knowledge. Being alone reveals so much in ourselves. Thank you so much for sharing. I’ve sabotaged many relationships and realize it. It’s hard to deal with the fear and resolve it. I recognize I even sabotage my own healing...lol. It really is crazy but at least I’m aware.

Wow......this insight is so powerful for me. I realize the dynamic that happened at the end of my last relationship. And although....I'm sure that no matter what kind of behavior I might have displayed that he would have left. But I can more understand some of his behaviors. And also realize how unconscious my panic and insecurity were toward the end. And realizing that this was a general panic and insecurity....and not all about him. Thank you for your videos! I just found you recently and I think they are some of the most honest and insightful here on youtube....so wonderful and appreciated!!

Now I understand something that I couldn't put into words before. I can't find a partner from a place of fear. I have to face this fear myself - no one is coming to save me or make it all better.

Incredibly brilliant insights here friend....amazing intuition and two thumbs up on the production of these videos....I really dig the P.O.V. changes between breaths/thoughts and passages...it instills flow (Taoism) and a kind of interactive edge as well..keeps the watchers eyes focused (by being made to re-focus) and not as straining as watching a fixed camera position.....brilliant.

Beautiful! We are really never alone.when we are with ourselves there is always love around us. When eyes are open we then see. The capacity to love is innate with in us. We can choose fear or we can choose love. Acceptance of ones self. What a beautiful experience. The capacity to love! Thank you! Many Blessings !

Yes, I agree, The more I feel that I share my being with all creatures of the universe the more I want to be alone. Seems to be contradictory but in fact is the result of feeling the presence of God in every thing.

I would suggest to be honest with yourself and look deep within when doing so.When I done this I found myself subconsciously looking for a love interest to replace my former one whom I think manipulated me(basically what I think was my ego, trying to look as though I don't need her anymore or appearing as though I don't care at all in front of her). This left me with a lot of anxiety constantly trying so hard to look better without her. But now I will be honest with myself and realize that I still do somewhat care and that I don't need a replacement or to appear a certain way. Rather I will just focus on what I truly what put of life

Along with becoming comfortable with being alone, we also need to learn the self in all its imperfection. That I feel is a big step towards really finding a fulfilling relationship. If you don't love all your parts, truly, without any judgement, we won't atttract that kind of love in our life.
