@CatsAgainstCommunism; Your posted comment selected that specific statement "I can exist without You, but without You, it is not a life". Then You add Your personal assessment of "so powerful". What is Your basis for selecting that statement, along with Your assesment ? Also from Your selecting that statement alone You have ignored the many other important aspects which are important, essential, vital, critical which are stated explicitly. Thus, it seems from Your selected, specific aspect, idea, concept, with the emphasis, that You lack the fuller view, perspective, perception that is presented, stated, described, explained, and conveyed. In addition, what is not stated explcilty, but those that know the Toraw/ah, which states לא טוב לבדו - לאיש -> Not "good" alone for him - to the male-man. This principle, requirement, expectation along with לבשר אחד - לאיש, to be one "flesh", to the man -> meaning for the man to cause the two separate physical beings, to join together, to be one physicial being; in reality the two were created as one spiritual being, just as אדם הראשון-Adawm-Adam The First [human], then also the physical being which eminates from the spiritual being. Thus, the man-male is directed to join the two separated beings to return to one being in this physical world, with their physical body manifestations, as they were previously one spiritual being. Thus, in combination, the joining is necessary, along with the intent, purpose, meaning of to be "good", which cannot be achieved alone, rather only via with the 'other half' only. As stated within other videos by Manis Friedman, the male-man, must be the משפיע ונותן-cause of influence, improvement, giver while the female-woman is מקבל-receiver. Thus, to be "good" is to behave accordingly as this. Now, is there more comprehension of the important, essential, critical, vital aspects stated, explained, described ? If You are beginining to develop more comprehension, there is still more aspects within the important, essential, vital, critical which are also explained, described, mentioned within other posted videos within this topic too. =>One that is mentioned is with "respect", though not the proper translation, meaning, concept of כבוד. The obligation of the man-male לכבוד אישתו יותר מגפו then also ואוהב כמתו requires more specific, precise definitions, explanations, details too. All The Best, Sincerely

Rabbi, I was raised catholic and I dont think there is similar wisdom in my close circle as the majority of the things you say. I have either validated a lot of my own personal experience, or have learned a lot from watching you. Especially in marriage. To add to your point, once a man has the conviction that he is perfect and acts in theat same order, good women will come to him without him even asking for it. Man should work on developing his convictions and then once he has them, work on never act opposite of them. Women will come, money will come, good things will come. You just need to make sure your convictions are well grounded in truth and wisdom. thank you so very much!

I think the answer to your questions is another question: what do you expect from marriage? From what you say, your question is whether you can truly love, so it has nothing to do with marriage (and you don't lose hope in anything, to begin with), you see? The answer is in you?

[@ary-shalom8356]

@@fernandomelli9395 Thanks. It’s food for thought. I don’t know what to expect from marriage because I have never been married, but I would like: companionship, partnership, a best friend, romance, to create a family. To answer the other questions; perhaps because I don’t totally accept myself with all my flaws it’s hard for me to fully accept others. So, no, I don’t believe we “love” people just the way they are. Sounds Pathetic?

[@Vlad-bs1js]

​@@ary-shalom8356 After giving it some thought, I think that I like women for who they can be, not necessarily who they are, and end up loving them if I see that they're willing to try to become my ideal version of them, regardless of how much they succeed in doing so (it's all about the effort). I know that this may sound like a selfish view, but this is something that I would reciprocate. If anything, I would to be the one who initiates "the change" because I believe a healthy relationship, be it romantic or otherwise, is one in which all the involved parties are actively and consciously trying to make each other's lives better. As for what to expect from marriage, I don't see why it should be any different to a relationship that you're taking seriously. At the end of the day, it's just a formal way of declaring your commitment and it shouldn't change anything.
