    I’ve also noticed that men will pursue a woman just for sex. I always make it very clear that I don’t do hookups, and that I’m looking for a relationship. That one sentence weeds out all of the guys who are just looking for sex. I’m all about leveling up in what I’m looking for in a man. I’m beyond done with bottom feeders. Intentionality in both words and in action is necessary from both. Reciprocity is another one as well.

    Could also be because you’re dating a dismissive avoidant. They think they want a relationship till they start to like someone. Then their core wounds are triggered. Usually they think they won’t be enough in a relationship for someone. They fear losing their independence. Then all the sudden they’re taking space and think they’re not ready. This is usually all unconscious. That’s why it’s important to start stating needs and knowing what you want very early on in the dating stage.

    I feel like men are more likely to be emotionally unavailable. So when they do develop feelings, they get distant or leave. Gone from we would be great together and asking me if I ever want to live outside London to 13 days later I need headspace. I said take all the time you need. Because that to me is sign..girl move on. He ain't ready, doesn't know what he wants. Just an FYI we had great chemistry and deep conversations. We had one date in person 2 years ago. Reconnect recently just to be told he wants to date but feels like distance and job situation in a way. To me... looks like still not grown up... 🤷

      Exactly! They pursue a relationship, then decide they are not ready for a relationship. Do you go to a job interview, have a child, make some other life-altering decision, only to decide shortly thereafter you 'weren't ready'? No, because we are supposed to be adults...things can not work out, but commitments are the milestones of life. I had the same thing happen to me; someone meets and wants you to be their world, only to pull away. If you only spent a short time with this guy, then cut your losses. I think what these sites don't say, is that men 'think' they want love and commitment, because the species would die out if they didn't, only to not have the fundamental skills to make love and commitment happen. There should be a warning sign on men, like on their t-shirt...warning, may seem normal and ready for commitment, but faulty content; discretion advised!

This guy was the total package every other way, but I could not see myself wasting my time with us being on two different pages. I am proud of myself for recognizing this early on and knowing my worth to end things, instead of remaining in the situation with a delusional optimistic fantasy.

    Yesterday, I went to a party and spoke with one guy that I know for a while as a friend. We always joke and flirt on the parties and I haven't seen him for a year. (Yesterday was my first night out since March 2020).
    He said, "You know that I find you super attractive and there is this chemistry between us". I told him that it is not enough for me". He was really surprised to hear that. You think, why? He said that he likes a casual relations (aka based on sex only) because they are easy to handle. I said: "These are absolutely not my type of relations". Too bad that some operate on this superficial level, but oh well. He is not my guy, like you said. 😚🤗

When you do that, it's a total disaster.

  • @CapSunLibraMoon
    @CapSunLibraMoon 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Um no your wrong. It's the guys that sit back and do nothing. I'm the initiator and make the effort and engage in deep conversations. Most men are lame, selfish, only care about their hobbies, their schedules. They will start to say all these things to reel you in.... how good they are to women, that they are pleasers, their affectionate, they will be this way or that way, etc. They get the woman to trust their genuine in their words. But their attention slowly dissipates, no actions, less attentiveness and bam, they changed for no reason and go off for the next thrill. So I think you are wrong. Men like attention and like to chase and pursue. Once they have you, it's not a challenge. I think it's funny you think in this day and age that women sit back and do nothing. Couldn't be farther for the truth.

      @nappilygorjess 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      This I find the most accurate. So often we as women can take a man not being ready to commit personally, thinking it’s because of us when it’s not. Often times, a man can think he’s ready, get with a woman and not be healed enough for a committed relationship. It’s not always about the person on the receiving end. It’s a lot of internal dialogue ppl deal with that we sometimes know nothing about. No matter how transparent we think our partners are being. We have to stop internalizing other ppl’s behavior and trust ourselves enough to move on regardless to the “why” a person isn’t ready for a committed relationship.

I will not do that again. I'm the friendliest person on this planet once someone starts to talk to me. I'm funny and kind and understanding. But I will not make the first move again.

  • @GODISMYSTERIOUS
    @GODISMYSTERIOUS 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I guess men pursue women because they are drawn to their physical attractions. The sex drives motivate them to pursue the women. Nevertheless, physical attractions do not last long when reality sets in. As Jonathan has mentioned about shared values, blendable styles and so forth, these are elements of reality. Before going into these deeper issues, the personalities of both men and women will be exposed when they get together in 6 months or a year. Strong temper and weaknesses in personality of both sides can weaken a relationship and eventually just good sex cannot guarantee a sincere and long lasting relationship. I use my logic to make this assumption. My logic could be wrong.

  • @whatrtheodds
    @whatrtheodds 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I feel a little 😳 embarrassed that my intentionality question skills are lacking. Although the last guy I dated was very good at asking me questions, which in turn taught me to speak up. He was also into self development and it showed, but it was as if it was a little hollow and as time went on, the things he posed as questions and said he was ready for he took back. I don't think he actually believed he'd find someone who would challenge him, I poked holes and called him out and the cracks started to show. It was so sad because he had one side of him that I thought was a magnificent man and he did change my life forever. I'm alot more confident now because I finally met a man whom cared for me because of my mind. And then I saw it within myself. I'm still heart broken but he wasn't ready. He said he was confused. I think it was for a number of reasons. I don't know what he actually thought about me and that really hurt, although he claimed to feel the way I felt. Maybe he didn't think I was good enough, but also he had some serious dark issues under the surface. I'd take him back if it was years from now, because that's how long working on stuff like that takes. Ofcouse I can't hold on for that. So I'm going on my own journey of self love as you call it. I just sometimes have a hard time letting go of a man whom had such a profound effect on my life. He was the man I always wanted. I was strongly brought up that woman were good for one thing and I emerged an adult with that as a core believe. For years I thought the more I gave of my body the more I was worth. I'm so so so glad I don't think that anymore. But I still have my shadows that need working on.

    I had a situation blow my mind this week. A guy who’s friends with my sister decided to randomly reach out to me two months ago. I meet this guy once or twice visiting her so we were acquaintances already. We started chatting on a very regular basis, formed a connection, we liked many of the same things. We wanted to make plans to meet up with each other. We’re three hours away. My thinking was I’ll make plans or ask him if a particular weekend was good once we were both freed from our job commitments. We were throwing dates around then in the middle of the discussion he says ‘I can’t do this. I know myself and the distance would be too hard for me to handle’. I knew this guy wasn’t ‘the one’ but what if he was? He cut me off at the knees before we spent one second together. I know there’s no one else in his life. No kids, not divorced but my sister said that she should’ve warned me because he’s a one date and bye guy. She thought he was changing. I can’t help but feel rejected and dejected from a person I barely know. Ugh.

      You need to see the blessings in this. This is not your boyfriend, you haven't slept together, and he did you a huge favor by doing this now and not later on. He is not emotionally invested yet and neither should you be, so he has every right to say, long distance relationships isn't for him. He knows what he wants and he let you know exactly what the problem was without leave you confused and wondering. This is what dating is about. You get out there and sometimes you realize early a person just isn't for you, no harm no foul.
      You should try working on your self esteem and being less emotionally attached.

      I have a good friend who is in his 60s and gives women seemingly wonderful if distant relationships……… until they start to get serious. I would say they last a couple of years or so. Then it has to fall apart because their desires actually are not aligned. I don’t know what to think.

    The guy I was seeing went to a 5 week yoga retreat and while there realised he wasn’t actually ready (despite thinking he was/telling me that he was before he left). He not long ago ended a relationship and also went through cancer which trauma he says he pushed to the side until the retreat, so I can only believe what he says. I told him if he found himself thinking differently in future he could still reach out and see where I am, and he said that sounded good to him. Maybe I’m delusional but I believe it’s very much a timing thing for us unfortunately.

      @@JonathonAslay Yes and we all have both. It takes practice to intentionally be in your feminine, as a woman. We tend to be over givers and give over of ourselves and that's what leaning back means. Practice receiving, in our soft feminine energy, instead of doing things for him and trying so hard to please him. Men need to give to a woman to be in their masculine energy and women need to lean back and let them. Right? Men can be too much in their feminine energy and that's not balanced either. Finding that yin yang with a man is the trick that takes practice. 😊

    My ex 38 turning 39 broke up with me, 26 yo woman. He said he felt like he couldn’t commit to the relationship right now. He chased me from the start for months. We dated for 2 months and we broke up last week. The age difference has never been a problem, but I feel like it went wrong because we rushed into something without really getting to know each other. We were great together. Never fought. Saw each other a few times a week. I think if we started over, we would be able to make it work, knowing what we know now. I accepted the breakup because I knew he wasn’t feeling it anymore. I could just tell. I still have hope we can make it work after some time apart and figuring out what we need to do differently. It wasn’t about sex with us at all. We had an intimacy outside of that. I don’t know why he lost feeing but he did.

    4 months in, he started pulling away. It was devastating.
    So much in common, strong attraction and similar values.
    I moved on but then he came after me fully intentional and things did change for awhile. However, it returned to him pulling away again. I just don't get it.
    He would get so upset questioning who im seeing because I refused to engage in an exclusive relationship yet he would make plans, break plans every time we started getting close...ehhh...thank you Jonathon. I will never move fwd with anyone again without asking a lot of questions and being intentional.

Am I making a mistake?! , it was only about myself and how I felt during all dating process, but now I know both man and woman goes through the same thing , now I ask and try to talk about some subject that I used to think were reserved to women only , now I take everything as a learning experience there is no failure in life only apprenticeships and learning experiences , tysm for your videos and for your sincerity I am doing a marathon of your past videos bc I feel like I missed so much , The thing that I find difficulty with en is "announcing a bad news or a bad event" it may seem easy to people but I just keep ignoring this for almost a year , when there is a death to announce , or a bad news to announce to the person you love I can't find the courage to say it I hate that sad face I know it's not my fault but wish it wasn't me that had to say it , I asked other people and most told me they say it as it Is and didn't think too much ,but for me it's almost a torture especially during this pandemic I had to tell many peole that their close ones pass away and each time it's almost as of It was me the one hurting them .

    Super good video Jonathon! I personally think Joe Dispenza needs to reach all people around the globe to teach them how to reprogram their brains! Love Wayne too because he had a gentle soul so we lost a good one when he passed onto the other side. I am guilty and bought into the man should lead program and this was after trying to lead myself and failing (I had 5 brothers as my mentors and witnessed a few of them dodging women all the time LOL). I dated a guy who was 13yrs older a couple years ago for 5yrs looking for guidance in a relationship and found that a man can’t lead if he hasn’t taken the time to deal with his past shit or doesn’t get it! Maybe I should say that unless you have been successful in a relationship that you wouldn’t be the lead and that goes both ways! So…I have concluded that whoever has the healthiest mindset should be the lead because someone has to do it. 😀 I am a natural leader so I try but I am attracted to alpha males now who lead because I am tired of doing it…love that you say it like it is, would date you but it would be long distance and I have been there done that and it sounds like you have too. My youngest brother never dated EVER but I had encouraged him to do the internet when he got to a lonely stage (40). He is super shy and lacks confidence but he shocked the family by announcing he was flying to the Philippines to meet up with a woman he had been Skyping with for 3yrs! He ended up bringing her back on a fiancé visa and they got married and have 2 beautiful children 6yrs later! They just visited me from L.A. (I am in Tucson, AZ) and they are a perfect match, both introverts and seem to work well together as a team and parents and both love love love each other! What I realized was that my brother’s intention was to find a wife, he had no interest in “dating” and LA is difficult to date anyways because people are lost in LaLa land and caught up in the ego aspects of life. He got swallowed up by women there but it is interesting how one person can meet their match right off the bat if you know what you want and then you have someone like me who has dated more than most and never met my match? Maybe because I kept dodging the marriage thing when I was younger because I felt objectified and couldn’t “vet” who was true and who was not so I never trusted my own decisions. ☹️ Learning a lot from you later in life and lucky that I still feel 25 LOL so feeling like I am getting closer to meeting the one. Thank you! Enjoy this beautiful day!!!
