My episode, "The gift of your absence," recently passed 100,000 views on KZbin. So I thought I'd take this opportunity to release an update responding to some of your feedback and criticism. Most importantly, I want to clarify that the primary goal in giving someone the gift of your absence is not to manipulate someone to chase after you. This can happen, but it shouldn't be your primary motivation. Rather, this is fundamentally a strategy to increase your own self-value by exercising self-respect. This can be attractive in its own right -- over and above the value added by your scarcity. Thanks for your support!!

All relationships need to be balanced. I recently ended an 8 year friendship that had been significant. I felt undervalued and that the 'friendship' had become me making all the effort and doing all the reaching out. I expressed that and asked if we could meet or talk on the phone to discuss. I kept getting "dismissed", told to "be patient" and was talked down to. That was enough for me to say this is no longer working for me.

I have some friendships like that, Shelley. I'm thinking, in particular, of friend who only seems to call me when he wants to use me as his therapist. I've brought this up with him before -- but he's frankly unlikely to change significantly. It's sad, because I think very highly of our friendship. My solution was to pull back and expect less from him, without burning the bridge outright. However, I appreciate that this approach isn't always appropriate.

Anne Frank once said " more flowers are given at funerals because regret is stronger than gratitude " I think this is the problem with most interpersonal relationships. The people we often respect or admire often don't appreciate us in the same manner, and there are people who look up to us or value our presence more than we value theirs. Ive often wondered why this is the case, and have not arrived at any reasonable conclusions. It seems any relationship with two people one will always like one more than the other likes or appreciates them. There's an element of power involved. And power takes various forms. A person's power can be beauty, intelligence, money, charm, fame, social skills. And whatever a person admires the most, they will be subjected to being the " fan" to whoever has that quality. Celebrities can love their fans, appreciate them but beyond an ego blow, the fans absence will not be as missed as the celebrities absence. And it seems in all interpersonal dynamics one person is more the fan, and the other is more the celebrity.

That's a great quote, Mo. Thanks for sharing. It also seems to me that there is an inescapable imbalance at the heart of all human relationships. In many cases, we believe that this imbalance is right and appropriate (such as between parents and young children, or teachers and students); however, there is a often deep social suspicion of imbalance in romantic relationships. I agree that power plays a role, but that ultimately the power of the admired lies primarily in the deference of the admirer. For more on this topic, you can check out my episodes "The balance of attraction," "Being with the one you love," and "Being loved by the one you're with."

@@psychacks Thank you Dr. For the other video suggestions I will check the ones out I haven't seen yet. I agree with you and that makes sense. The admired has no power without the admirer. And you're absolutely right, its impossible to have equality in romantic relationships. One always loves more than the other. I'd also say that this is often the case in friendships also. How often do we say " I helped them with a flat tire, attended their kids graduation, and they can't even wish me happy holidays, yet they always make time for others" I read once in a book at '' selfishness is apt to cause love from others " its contradictory yet isn't the admired person always a little more self centered than the admirer?

Yes. I heartily agree with this. It's self preservation of your spiritual core. How can you continue to give to a situation where there is no reciprocity? Reciprocity of effort, time and emotion is essential. It is the circulation of energy. If you cut of circulation of blood and oxygen in a body there is death; just as it is also if you cut off effort and energy in a relationship there is death. Love and/ or friendship without reciprocity is despair.

Ironically, “Indifference” is what every single relationship coach/psychologist etc on KZbin recommend how a man should act towards a woman in a relationship. I don’t mean “do not show love/affection”. But rather “if she stays, okay. If she leaves, okay”. Women’s emotions change by the minute, they are emotional, hypergamous creatures, and unless they perceive you as the best option they have, they look elsewhere. One way to defeat hypergamous is to not chase, like guys have chased your woman their entire lives, but instead, act “indifferent”.

That was it. I did get feed back from a sil that they were angry at me for not calling. I asked if their phone called out. That was 10 yrs ago & not one of-them has called me. That pretty much told me how it was & I accept that.

At 43 years old I have successfully learnt to do this in the exact manner explained for the first time. The goal was too end a relationship without being emotionally dysregulated, without manipulation, and to teach myself to allow free will of choice on both ends. It took about a year to teach myself how to do this correctly with this one person and I think I succeeded, not in the way of getting a person back but by really analysing the situation as a whole and being able to predict a future with them through observing both our behavioural patterns. The end result ... I dodged a bullet. Maybe he did too. Taking a step back and slowly but strategically offer space over time, you will see why it didn't work out the way it looked in the beginning. If you have patience, time will be teller of all. This is a great emotional survival tool to learn. I highly recommend it.

I love my partner dearly but sometimes I wish he would give me the gift of his absence for a couple hours a day or every other day. We are always together and the only time I’m away from him is when I leave the house. It’s hard for me to be enthusiastic about being around him when we’re always together 24/7 (he works from home). I give him the gift of my absence for 3-4 hours a day at least 3 days a week and two hours 2 days a week so I just wish he’d reciprocate a little. It would enhance our relationship for sure. I miss being alone. 😢

So I will give her that gift in order to focus on myself. No contact... suddenly.. because even if it is seen as passive aggressive - it's still better compared to what she had been causing for months. And i could not care less.

The important thing to say from my end is - I have never felt better, more in shape, more productive, focused and in tune with myself than now. It took probably 1.5-2 months for me to get over but it was well worth it. I've been casually dating people, no strings attached. Started a new job, several new hobbies.. learned to code in python, got jacked in gym like never before (hitting the gym 4x per week)... it was a blessing in diguise really .I also met someone who is reciprocating, makes the effort, does not cause drama and is fun to be around.

This and the previous video are the only podcasts so far where I've disagreed with Dr. Taraban's message. He usually hits the nail right on the head! I think communication is the key to handle any adult situation--not going off and sulking like a child and telling yourself "I am giving the gift of my absence." Who has time these days to deal with this kind of babyish malarkey? The truth is, the rudely abrupt withdrawal of your presence more than likely confirms to the other person that you weren't worth their time in the first place, and the only reasonable response that the recipient can make in my humble opinion is: "Next!"

I’ve tried talking to him, crying, leaving in the middle of the night, staying at a hotel room, and he says we will move “someday soon,” but I’ve told him I cannot continue to live in this apartment where I can’t get more than an hour of sleep a night. It’s not sustainable. And he keeps saying “Ok, we will get another place, soon.” And it’s not happening. I just need to leave San Francisco and if that means leaving him, so be it. He will eventually either miss me, or not. And that’s how it has to be.

I've you've been trained by parents to be "nice" and agreeable, you will likely feel guilty about asserting appropriate boundaries. At least until you realize that "nice" and "good" aren't the same thing.

Me i make mySelf distant if I feel I care too much and ppl don't appreciate me however if I want to be authentic i still care thats my nature I'm concern always . Yes I agree about the Law of supply and demand. The lesser the supply demand increases or become valuable. If I change mySelf because of the reason of being valued thats not my real me. By the way Dr. Orion I find your channel very interesting short but full of substance . Keep it Up 👍. Thank you to you too for sharing your knowledge, your teachings, your experiences 👍🤚

The only way it would not be passive aggressive would be if it was clear and explained - why you need the time and time frame. Having been on the receiving end where I A) treated the person well and B) they withdrew hard at the first sign of any disagreement or even any strong positive emotion/experience I can say that just withdrawing regularly is very damaging to the person who is trying to have a relationship with you and does create intermittent reinforcement dynamics.

I've actually never watched "The gift of your absence". KZbin recommended this video. It would be nice to have the original video linked in the description or in a playlist. :) Less work for the viewers to watch more of your videos

There's a card linking to the original video in the first 20 seconds of the episode, and again in the end screen. You'll also find there a link to the playlist this episode is a part of, "Effective boundary setting in relationships." Playlists are a great opportunity to take a deeper dive into circumscribed topics. Check them out!

wow this video really read my mind, I was anxiously awaiting what a good approach was for those that live with a partner but want to transition out of it, the scenario I'm describing is as follows: I moved into a new home with my partner and her 11 even year old son, after a year we I we are separating , my partner is not able to afford the current rent, and now I'm tied to trying to find a way to pay my portion or find someone to rent a bedroom, guys this is a no win situation, I'm very frustrated and need advice on how to get through this period in my life.,,,

If you're feeling under valued in a relationship weather it's professional or otheriwse it could be intentional from the other party. Regardless of economics everyone and I mean everyone in a working environment is expandble. Perhaps they want you to feel undervalued or a certain kind of way. Maybe they want you to leave it's the other person's strategy of not having to confront you directly. This situation can happen in so many scenarios husband, boyfriend, maybe you just don't fit in with the company culture etc. Culture I feel has a lot of influence as to how we react to certain situations. Myself being Hispanic and black straight up depending on the sitaution. As a people we don't play (The Gift Of Your Absence Game) we evluatate the situation and then confront. Weather it's the working envoriment, boyfriend, husband etc. We are very direct some might even say confrontinal in are approach. In certain situations cursing, yelling, door slaming might take place. Lol

In many cases, it's preferable if the other person decides to leave an unvalued relationship, and a common strategy to encourage this is to make the relationship sufficiently uncomfortable for the other that he or she finally chooses to leave. Confrontation isn't always wrong, and can also be method of increasing self-respect -- and (if done with dignity) even of increasing perceived value. I have a number of episodes that touch on themes in this comment, including: "Everyone is unique and replaceable," "Don't be harmless," and "The problem of other people."

You are correct. You are different from White People and Asians. Each race is different and should be left alone. You would be happier if you didn't have to deal with White People. I prefer to be around White People. I don't want to be around others but I am forced to. So, you are not alone.

@@WhiteActivist You have a serious reading comprehension problem. I'm also part white and have white family members. Nothing in my comment made any reference to white people and I not liking them. I was talking about culture and tradition as to how different people would react under similar circumstances. When you mention Caucasians and Asians you make it seem as if they are incapable of unsavory behavior. Hilarious! Good grief! By the way there is only one race which is the Homo Sapiens. Please, let me know when you find another race I and the rest of humanity would be extreamly interested!

Another great video. Thank you. I am curious. What are your thoughts on our inner voice? Animals instinctively do what is right for them. I’ve observed this game phenomenon in Third World people. Why is it so difficult for so many people today to find that inner voice that mysteriously knows exactly what to do?

Sounds like you're talking about conscience or intuition. You may want to check out my episode "A surprising insight from Harry Potter," in which I discuss this phenomenon. In general, it's hard to hear the voice when your head is full of someone else's thoughts.

Hey brother. What do you think about covering a video on men being vulnerable to their woman. Is that something we should or shouldn’t be doing? There is a lot of info out there saying men shouldn’t be vulnerable to their woman no matter what. I don’t see it that way but I could be wrong. What is your input?
