We are - most of us - incredibly bad at choosing partners who will make us happy and who will be warm and supportive. It may look like bad luck but it is far worse than this: it is an unconscious strategy to frustrate ourselves that we need to understand in order to overcome it once and for all.

“The fastest, easiest and most inadvertent technique for messing up one’s life remains that of getting into a serious relationship with the wrong person: with very little effort, and without any innate taste for catastrophe, one can end up - by middle age or earlier - contemplating wholesale financial ruin, loss of parental rights, social opprobrium, homelessness, nervous exhaustion and shattered esteem, to begin a lengthy list of harrowing side-effects…”

Victoria Porsiempre Exactly no one has to be perfect. There are people with a very unhealthy view of commitment as the end goal of your worry instead of another phase in your life. You will fail a lot, but it's up to you and your partner to fix your relationship problem if it's worth it for both of you.

Instead....we want what other humans want, what we were programmed by our parents, culture, religion, media and society to want. We would fair well to trust Him. I'm still learning to trust in Him 100 percent...and while it ain't easy, I'm trusting Him to teach me to trust Him.

I'm skeptical of the strength of its influence on the average person. My response to my parents was very different from my sister's because I don't have the same personality. Also, among my friends, dating is a trial and error method to discover what they value in a person. The values evolve as they learn and mature. Friends/partners help us transcend personal issues, but I doubt these issues were all unconsciously placed by our childhood guardians. Sure, we need knowledge our parents failed to teach us simply because they didn't know. But not all ignorance makes us suffer to the point of dysfunction.

I just dated a girl three years ago and tried an online relationship with another girl (a couple hours from where I live) past year. Both relationships finally made myself stop searching for anyone, too much pain for me, I prefer to focus in my work, health and friends. It's quite difficult for me as I am really romantic and willing to love and care about others, but I am forcing myself to believe that she will come sooner or later and, until then, loneliness is my way to truly appreciate my future wife as much as I can. Love is too profound to be shared with anyone.

What you could have said or done in a certain situation. Then maybe you would still be together. But the reality is that they just aren't right for you and they never were. They aren't worth it and you have to claim that power back to yourself.

School of Life at it again with the bad childhood being the root of most issues in our life. It's a constant battle to remind ourselves that we are deserving of respect and love (especially from yourself) when the ones who were supposed to help you grow chose instead to abuse you to overcome their own insecurities. For me, I chose to doubt and analyse every words that come from my parent. There is a difference between a bit of criticism and a one sided conversation More often than not, I've found that my parent cares more about making herself the one who "suffered the most" so I should discard my feelings to attend to hers. Not anymore. It's hard, there are a lot of snide remarks, boundaries crossing and screaming rage but if I'm going to feel like crap, *I* will be the one to chose who gets to make me feel like that: nobody but me. And I'm done feeling like crap. Good luck you all, as long as we find a lifeline that works, we won't lose sight of what truly matters for us

That's what I think, I get a lot of therapy from reading what people have to say like this one - Why do we fall in love with the wrong people? Because we accept the love we think that we deserve.

In the beginning of my 42 long year marriage to a malignant narcissistic real Dr. Jekyll/Mr Hyde sociopath not unlike my late father, his mother and grandmother said I was the luckiest woman and then his grandmother also said her grandson was so lucky! Little did she know how lucky he was, little did they know what I had gotten myself into! lol "Love IS blind", no truer words were ever spoken! I love what Parisian women say about love that they learn from the time they're little girls..."it never ends well"! You either break up after an affair, go through a divorce or become a widow like myself or a widower! Very pragmatic advice to keep in mind!

Very well-explained reasons why we might choose the wrong partner. There's so many emotionally-handicapped people..... thanks to deficiencies to a greater or lesser degree in parenting. Someday, every prospective parent will receive appropriate skills to ensure their child is provided with adequate nurturing. Otherwise, birth control would be a good option.

Knowledge Of Self is the last thing we think about and want to attain. We want to know n love others but dont even know n love ourselves. We think we do but the person you dress up and see in the mirror IS NOT YOU. TBH, We only try to look nice for others or to feed the ego or vanity. TV, Social Media and Music only fuel these two. Sex is the worst thing you can do, if you dont actually LOVE the other person (not like or lust). Again, TV, SM and Music are the main driving forces behind RECREATIONAL SEX. Not telling ppl what to do, jus making u think.

Because the only one who can truly satisfy your heart is the one who created it. :) you can start with Islam to know your true purpose of life i.e to worship the Almighty God and not join anyone in his service. Almighty God also says: “God is He Who raised the heavens without any pillars you can see. Then He rose above the Throne. He subjected the sun and the moon each running for a term appointed. He regulates the affair, explaining the signs in detail that you may believe with certainty in the meeting of your Lord.” (Quran 13:2)

this is true, and on the flip side, there are those rare individuals that make it through a dysfunctional childhood with high self esteem intact, driven to achieve the family they never had. but despite this, their brains developed neural pathways from the environment which affected them-- and maybe those neural pathways were programmed to bring 'comfortable' dysfunction' back into their lives... " and you may say to yourself: "my god, what have i done?" 'letting the days go by, let the water hold me down'

Wonderful channel. Thank you. I think changes that have occurred in our environment also play a large part why we chose wrong partners. Prior relationships was about families and communities merging together and parents often selected the partners. Romance was unheard of but today it is the most important factor. Prior relationships couples got married first and fell in love later. Today people want to fall in love first and then divorce later. The environment supports and exploits love marriages bc that is where the money is. Really it is a big disaster for our generation. Hopefully the next generation will start getting it right. Staying single in this confused environment is perhaps the best on can do.

Hi there. Thank you school of life for attempting to explain the why’s and how’s and what could be the reasons. Even though I haven’t completely narrowed down my issues regarding why I make the choices I make, these videos have helped immensely. Regarding this particular video, (I’m sorry to indulge myself in a KZbin comment like this), even though I have never been in a proper relationship (romantic) in my 25 years of life, I have had this unrequited love situation which isn’t healthy for me. Tbh I haven’t had a damaging childhood (if I think about it) but yes the points mentioned are some of the reasons that I probably am ‘stuck’. I did believe that I was a friend to myself but I do also overthink about what did I do to cause this etc. Thus I’m not too sure if #2 is one of the causes. However than no.5, I think I do have all the other issues. And I need to work on them, problem is I’m too used to being myself obviously which makes it harder to change myself. Sorry if I don’t make sense. Anywayz, here are the bullet points of the things he mentioned : #1. We can’t Sift. #2. We aren’t a friend to ourselves. #3. We can’t disappoint anyone. #4. We hope too much. #5. We are overly scared of being alone. #6. We find kindness boring. *i also found misguided patience interesting*

This is incredibly accurate to my patterns and even though I'm fully aware I do this, it seems so difficult to fall out of it. A therapist told me the same thing, to treat myself well but what does that even mean really? I can think I'm doing I'm loving myself and that I am happy in myself but I still unconciously keep falling into the same patterns and find myself giving all my time and effort to extremely toxic people instead of kind and loving people :/

What about those of us who were raised in a nurturing, loving, and GIVING environment? My parents were such and often helped others along when they stumbled or encountered difficulties. As such, we kids grew up tolerant, patient and loving, but we knew that relationships required patience sometimes, as well as the ability to hold one's tongue when another wounded person was acting out their hurt. That can still result in a temporary hurt to the person being patient, but that understanding and patience, can often help the other person to see their error and learn from it, thus helping them heal? Many of us in my family have made lives with others who are wounded, and in some situations, it has worked out, albeit not always smoothly. Aren't all people wounded in some way? Shouldn't a good relationship work to heal both parties? And when I ask that last question, I realize the levels of hurt are never equal and thus the see- saw of the work that goes into the relationship is never even. That just seems like common sense to me. Is it easy to do this? No. Can't it hurt sometimes? Of course it can. That's life. Does that mean there are times relationships need to be ended? Of course there are, but I think there is also room for some reality in judging those relationships. Thought over reaction so to speak. I am in complete agreement that empathy and healthy relationships, as well as a basic understanding of psychology should be taught in school, starting at the earliest ages and continuing throughout one's schooling would do great things for human society. That said, I do enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work ; )
