Yes we are human and we all make mistakes at some point. Whether it's little ones or BIG ones. I do believe second chances are ok only if your willing to look at the person in a different way. Sometimes we persevere things one way and it's not how it actually was at the time. If someone is of importance to us second chances are a way to learn how we will react to things this time. An then after the second chance we can decide what we will do and allow for our wellbeing. Don't get me wrong though, if someone crosses the wrong lines and it's unforgivable to you then don't let them walk all over you. Just make sure you take a step back an look at the whole picture before making your life changing decision.

His rapid personality change gave me an eerie feeling like he wouldn't piss on me if I was on fire if he was mad enough, I also got the feeling like he would ENJOY watching me burn.

How could u not find that person for 35+ years. Now I get that school can delay it but In retrospect when you are in your 40s it is going to be quite difficult to get the person you want because as you get older your looks fade away. Unfortunately, most men who you would consider good looking enough and have enough money in the same age bracket as yours will either be married or they do not commit to one woman. Sure you may find a guy that is single and still fits your requirements but the chances are really slim as you get older. how long are you still willing to wait?

I met my husband at 17 got married at 21. We grew and mature together. Since we’ve spent our 20s together there’s not much past baggages we brought to the marriage. There were times I thought I have settled too soon, but it didn’t make sense to leave a relationship that is working. (Sometimes we talk ourselves into leaving something that may not be perfect, but no relationship is perfect. They all take some work from both people involved). He loves me, respects me, supports and encourages me to thrive in whatever I choose. We are currently growing our family and I’m so happy I found him when I was young.

You're extremely lucky. Most people wish they got married that young precisely because you don't bring toxic baggage into someone else's life which only ends up hurting them and inevitably leads to the destruction of the relationship. I'm 41 and still single. Never met the love of my life and never will. These men today are like the most evil creatures roaming the earth. It's a lonely life being single and alone all the time. But I'm sick of getting my heart broken after investing all my heart and years of time with men who just end up toxic.

@@irinaivanovic9792 I would recommend that you investigate trauma therapy. A good therapy that can help you rebuild who you are, is DBT. It does not matter if you find a man or not, but you are very deeply (from what I am reading) cut by your past experiences. I learned a long time ago (why I stayed single and would not consider a relationship till I figured myself out), is that we attract people who are where we are at. That does not mean you are toxic, it means that you have a belief deep down under everything that you may not be even able to see, that says, this is what I am worth ________! When I left my extremely toxic marriage 18 years ago, I vowed not to get into a relationship till I had healed whatever was within me that was allowing me to allow someone to treat me in that manner. It took me 18 years and a lot of therapy to find a psychologist that uses DBT, ACT, and EMDR therapies to allow me to heal all the trauma I had been through in my marriage, my childhood, and life in general. I am a completely different person these days, I finally know who I am now. I had to come home to myself. I am not saying that if you do this you will meet an amazing man. I am saying that you will not give toxic men the time of day. You will demand respect, and you will take your time getting into relationships. You will have no issue walking out on anyone who does not respect you and treat you the way you deserve to be treated. There are men out there that will treat you right, but the problem is we keep dating the same person. Until we heal our person, we will continue to date the same person repeatedly, just with a different face, different body, but same toxic personality. I watch people from a distance, and I cannot tell you how many times I see both women and men serial date the same man in different bodies. Each time it blows up, they get really upset and blame the man/woman. Yet, they refuse to take time to heal themselves and learn to respect themselves. If you want to meet different men, you must change how you view yourself. However, you will not find a non-toxic man if you are bitter and angry and continuing the old patterns. That is the problem with what she is talking about, most people cannot just sit down their baggage on the side of the road and walk away without it, without first doing some trauma therapy, and the best trauma therapy is DBT. Dialectical Behavior Therapy. Or you can stay mad and bitter and play the blame game, it is completely up to you. Oh, and I am not saying that the men you have been in relationships with are not toxic ugly people, but you will not find anything different without doing your own work.

I married young and knew I had a great guy but was curious about what all I may have missed out on, marrying so young. We split on great friendly terms for some life changes we both thought would be good, for us to go separate ways to grow more as individuals. I have lived to REGRET THAT CHOICE like you wouldn't believe. I had NO IDEA how RARE good guys are in the older dating pool. I had NO IDEA the living hell players could put you through. I later married an awesome Christian minister who was my "dream guy" having every unique quality on my checklist. He turned out to be living a double life and I lost my career, savings, many friends, and health as we unraveled the relationship. I have been celibate and single for years now and if I could go back in time and kick my own young, dumb, butt... I would. I had GOLD and I traded it for KNIVES used to stab me in the back. Dumbest choice ever. Appreciate that man who treats you well and is faithful. Celebrate him, reapect him, honor him and be GRATEFUL every peaceful, drama-free day of your life that you have a great marriage in your life. Protect it. You are missing out on NOTHING BUT HEARTACHE.

That's what never being married does. I had a new doctor stare at my medical information for a long time, then look over and stare at me for about 10 seconds, then look at the papers again. He then said "You're 68 years old?" I said yes. He said "Why you look 35 years old!" I thought it was because I was still producing hormones but I'm wondering if never being married was part of it if there that much difference seen by the doctor. I should say though that never going through menopause (a rare thing) isn't all good. It's highly carcinogenic and the doctor I mentioned is an oncologist.

He lied about who he was, he lied about EVERYTHING so that he could emotionally manipulate me into giving him sex (which I did not ever give him!). Talk about a waste of my precious time and I was hurt by that. This all happened last night. And believe it or not, it was because I asked if we could go out to dinner instead of accepting his invitation to go to his apartment to watch a movie, smh. I suggested we go out to dinner and walk around after. HE BLEW UP AT ME. He said I can't wait this long (for sex). He claimed "NO man will wait this long and I haven't brought up sex once." Mind you, we haven't seen each other in SIX MONTHS. WE have only been talking on the phone for hours at a time because he works too much. He just turned 44 in February. He ghosted me on Valentines' Day and his bday was a couple days after that. I didn't hear from him until April. So we began talking again and he talked a big talk about how he thinks we were destined to be together and how he always wanted me to be his woman but he never had time for me working 7 days a week (which he still is). He said that's why he accidentally went silent. Smh. So many red flags. I met him online last July btw, and he has still NEVER progressed this into a relationship which he knew very well that was what I was looking for, I made it clear I would not to any type of situation ship or casual sex. He mirrored my intentions of wanting a relationship with his WORDS. Not actions, which I was paying attention to. You can imagine my disappointment to just last night find out by him saying he thinks talking for hours on the phone is "putting in effort" and that at this point, he is unwilling to put in ANY more effort aside from the 2 dinner dates he took me out on LAST YEAR. I was shocked and disgusted. It's sick how dog-like these males are today. The only thing they are willing to do is LIE TO YOU just to try and get you to hand over your body. I told him off last night saying he'd never find a woman like me again, and he admitted he knows he won't but that he can't wait for sex any longer. I called him out for lying to me and just wanting me for my body. So that's that.

They don’t even bother with the fact that he isn’t out abusing anyone, not a baby daddy, instead of celebrating his wins they focused on what THEY think he should have. It’s sad but that’s the society we live in.

In my culture this kind of pressure is only placed on women and its rarely ever on the men. It's interesting to see how its affecting your son. My dad doesn't pressure me but at 25 its all my mom asks about now. She is almost pleading with me to find a boyfriend even though i havent even started working full time yet (going to this fall post-Masters). They really should be focusing on his successes and shouldn't pressure him.

I’m not in love with him anymore and the damage that I’ve sustained in this relationship made me lose confidence in my abilities to survive without him. We have children be cause he wanted them. I resent him even though I love my children I feel burdened by them. It’s not their fault that their here but sometimes I treat them like an inconvenience. There is a lot that I could write a book and I wonder why I stayed because a lot have people would have walked away. Don’t stay if you can help it. It’s not your job to be loyal or supportive through abuse. Whether that’s mental or physical.

Especially since I am also a black female attorney just like Faith. I have a 2 year old daughter, I have a career that I LOVE, I volunteer in my community, I'm making more money than I even ever dreamed of, I have great friends and a supportive family, I am dedicated to staying in therapy to continuously improve myself and I am taking care of my health, body, and mind.

This confirms the wisdom shared by the married men in my life (dad, brother in laws, friends). A man THAT IS ACTUALLY READY FOR MARRIAGE only needs 6 months - 1 year to know if you are the one. Any longer than that and 1) he's not sure about you but he's comfortable (stalling), 2) his finances aren't where he wants them to be, 3) he has other goals he wants to accomplish first (career), and/or 4) he has committment issues. For me personally, I want to date a man for minimum of 1 year to see how he moves in each season before I commit to a lifetime together. And I will walk away at the 2 year mark as to not waste too much time.
@kimallnaturelle2 жыл бұрын
I believe my now partner is #2 or #3, I'm giving him 6 more months to move (have more action in his goals) before I choose to walk away. I love him and his family but I can't remain in a relationship with someone not as motivated as I am with their own goals. I need to see more fruit and it doesn't have to be career related at all. That's the only thing keeping me from saying "yes" if he proposes and I've already voiced this to him as well. Our 1 year anniversary is tomorrow.
@amaragrace942 жыл бұрын
@@kimallnaturelle Sit down and have a talk with him to get to the root of it. I wouldn't mention the 6 months time limit. Keep that to yourself. Figure out if the problem is a lack of effort or if he is actually really putting in the work and not succeeding. Hopefully it is the latter. As his future life partner and teammate, ask him what you can do to help. A win for him is a win for the both of you. Go through his plan with him and see if there is anything that can be tweaked. If he's been trying one thing and it's not working, he has to switch some things up. Then give him these next 6 months to show you he can follow through and check in with him frequently on his progress. When you see how hard he is working, hit him with that words of affirmation. A simple "I am so proud of you" can do alot. Have that "us against the problem" mindset and y'all will get through it. Also happy anniversary 😊! I hope it all works out.

this entire sit-down was absolutely flooding with gems. just *some* of my favourites included: 1 - "are they committed to the same commitment, and are you working towards that commitment together (strives to putting in work, in treating you well, in bettering themselves)?" 2 - "people do not change because they're being forced yo by someone else.. nagging doesn't work, an ultimatum doesn't work" YES! people who are sincere about changing will always start from their own heart - as partners we can still be both the suggestor and supporter of change, but we can't force it to them for it to be real and sustainable 3 - the resentment building being a core part of relationships falling apart is so true, if you recognise a change in character or value it needs to be discussed honestly and cleanly to see what the next best step is 😭 humans make things so complicated when we're dishonest and passively sitting in spite 4 - "they choose history over happiness" omg exactly. 💔👏🏼 5 - "i didn't want someone new in my life to pay the price for something they had nothing to do with in my past" THIS is the mature mindset we all need to grow into, so much respect 🙏🏼 6 - "it's an artificial timeline. the people asking you about it is a reflection of them, not you. get used to ignoring all the noise around you" YESS SAY IT AGAIN!! 7 - i especially admired how she learned to stop taking rejection personally ever again because of a greater story we often don't know about! 8 - "how can i be the best of myself to let them into my life VS moulding yourself to fit that person's life" 9 - "we do all our research in all these things, but we don't do it for matters of the heart.. you can't just show up and expect it to happen." 💯💯💯 *UGHH I love this,* her grounding wisdom and the way she delivers herself, and the host did such an excellent job!! the best kind of humans to listen to are those who had the courage and humility to learn and grow from experiences for the better. i honestly i don't buy books that often but i'm so tempted to buy Faith's book! ❤

A girl who was into my Dad in college wanted to go on a trip with him. He was excited too, but he had little money and no clothes that he could take on the trip, so he eventually declined and was too embarrassed to explain why. He feels bad for her to this day, because she would have never known the real reason. I too wonder how that must have punctured the young girl's self-confidence. So when Faith mentioned the prom-like incident from college, it just hit a chord. The takeaway is to never take rejection personally. It's hard, it's bitter, but it's not a reflection of who you are as an individual or an assault to your likability . Just be elegant facing it, and march on! ❤

"I realized that fear wasn't serving me...it was poisoning my perspective. And I didn't want someone new in my life to pay the price for something they had nothing to do with in my past." - Faith Jenkins This has to be one of my favorite parts of this interview. We are hurt when people break some of our core values. I've been healing from a kind ghosting situation that hurt me more than it should have. And I'm realizing this person broke some of my core values: honesty, kindness, genuine care for the other person, integrity. It turned out there was a huge disconnect between what he said he wanted (to get to know me, to spend time in person, to have others get to know him deeply) and what he actually did.
@alexandria94472 жыл бұрын
Wow, are you me? I’m in the same situation. I experienced this guy ghosting me and it really struck a cord with me. Like I felt like my inner compass was skewed as I didn’t see it coming and I thought we were on the same page. It made me lose trust in myself. Anyways, that’s a good way to look at it, he didn’t share the same core values as me, as how he treated me proved that. How poorly they treat us has little to no reflection of our true worth. Thanks for sharing. And Good luck♥️

Don't choose history over happiness, damn. Teach children healthy relationship patterns because many of us bring this to our adult lives. Many adult women want to be 'friends' with that person that they have already learned is not a good partner, let them go, that is a lesson, not a friend and certainly not a partner.

Love it, when people don’t get why someone is single. Best answer: Because I am not in a relationship unless I am really in love and it adds happiness to my life. I love my freedom and am not willing to compromise for anything less than the real thing. If it feels like a compromise, it’s wrong. Not one of those people who need to be in a relationship to feel complete. „Why are you not married?“ „Why should I? For what would I need that?“ Turn the question on them. If they don’t stop: „How many really happy marriages do you know? I‘ve been to the weddings and the divorce parties - my happiness is in the best hands - in mine.“ (wink, smile & off you go, leaving them flabbergasted)

Its very hard to be single these days and dating is really hard as well. I watch my friends date aimlessly and all I see is them wearing themselves down with men who are most likely not going to be in a relationship with let alone marry them. I am currently working on my self and being honest about the damage i still have In my heart from my child’s father 5 years ago. I left my child’s father because he was abusive when i got pregnant and I will never look back. Ladies there is nothing wrong with being single its not worth it to be with someone who makes you miserable. Be strong and love yourself first ❤️

When it happens for me, it will be from such a deep feeling of self love and most certainly not settling ever again. Stay strong in your own love and light ladies!!💜

This hit home with me.. I've seen this happen to my mom who has always settled with terrible men. Each one was worse than the last and she is 45 now and has done nothing with her life,she lives with my grandmom because she doesn't have a home and moved to Florida while leaving her bf in philly who is the biggest piece of garbage and yet she still can't let him go after 9 years of his abuse. She herself even became abusive back and I would tell her to leave him and move on because she is so beautiful, capable of doing anythi she sets her mind to and has such a big heart and her response to me was no man is going to want me at this age .. so she prefers to settle because she thinks after 9 years she can have him.. and he's only gotten worse and is so vindictive and hurts her out of spite.. yet she finds an excuse to excuse his behavior.. it hurts me so much because that relationship she has pushed me away because she has defended him over her own daughter so I chose to back off.. you can't help someone who doesn't want to be helped.. I hurt myself in the process trying to save her from these trash men .. so I had to let go for my own sake because I would lose sleep over it and cry and even feel resentment towards both of them and even anxiety became a huge problem. Over the years I hadn't realized that watching her settle made me the same way and I would settle with garbage men until one truly hurt me so bad I still have ptsd from his abuse... I was luck to gain the strength to leave and I have now truly found my equal and he isn't perfect but he is by far the best man ive ever met who respects me and loves me like mo other has. My advice for those stuck.. listen to this woman. . She is on point withher advice.

I was in an abusive relationship for about 4 years. These relationships are so much harder to leave then normal relationships. Trauma boding, love bombing, gas lighting, manipulation, coercive control and isolation are very real and extremely difficult to break free. Hang in there and be there for her when she needs you, in truth she needs support and goodness in her life more than anything right now. Remember he will probably do his best to keep you away and it even seem to come from her. Take care of yourself and stay strong for her.

I remain hopeful. 38:03 is my life. It’s rather exhausting but she hit the nail on the head about internalizing it, which I will not do anymore.

How people treat others when things are not going well is their true nature. This is so true. This conversation is so insightful. Most of my relationships don't end on a good note. It's really not healthy for me. Sometimes you gotta walk away from people you love. This is so hard. I am happiest when I'm happy with someone. I try so much to be happy alone and it works. But the happiness I experience when in love and loved back is second to non. So when things start going south I get deeply affected. How do I really get so happy alone like I am when I'm in love?
@josephsunfalcon479 Жыл бұрын
@jerry Godleads stop placing your happiness in someone's hands. This is why there's are so many unfulfilled relationships out here because people rush into relationships to feel loved and wanted. You can't be with someone to complete you. You find the right one that will compliment you. You must do the the job of filling up those holes that you may be seeking someone else to do. Work on making yourself happy and fulfilled and the right one will come along to add onto the happiness that exists within you. We will never know of wholeness until we fulfill ourselves. Sometimes it requires taking that spiritual journey with the Creator and unpack all the stuff inside ourselves.
