Exactly!!!! All this extra BS just to be in a relationship I was will to give marriage a 3rd try I don't like being alone at my age now that shit cool when you're young but Old not so much.....
EVERY CASE IS DIFFERENT PEOPLE ... TREAT IT ACCORDINGLY... AND PATIENCE IS KEY... KEEP YOUR SPIRIT UP AND GOOD MEN DONT FORGET THAT YOUR STILL GOOD MEN...
@@ApolloniaPonti what if your going through this exact situation but your married and still live in the same house? How do you distance yourself to make her miss you??..
I helped her heal family traumas. Helped her strenghten her self-confidence. I feel ripped apart hearing she wants to be alone. Thank you for making this video. I really love her and want to contiue watering her garden and have our flowers flourish. I am grateful for this gem you seeded in youtube. It pains me so much but your words are what I needed. One love. P.s: brothers reading this! Please help yourself and your boo by doing what this lady says.
Glad you mentioned how the woman may suffer from depression or anxiety. Many don’t realize how mental health issues can have an effect on that. So yes! I need a break to figure out and think things through. If a guy isn’t willing to go to couples therapy with me, it’s a done deal.
As a woman, I've never told my man I want a break from our relationship, a break to me is going in the other room going to get my hair or nails done, taking a breather and coming back to revisit and solve our problems not running like a coward that can't multitask.
Simply leave her alone. Let her reach back out to you. She will trust me. Focus on you and purpose. What i have noticed about women if yall have been through thick and thin, and she wants a break. She will learn the hardway and she will be back.
It’s been a day and by far this has been the hardest thing I’ve gone through. Coming from a man who used to play girls . I found the love of my life and this shit hurts.
It only gets worse. I hardly eat and get maybe 3 hrs of sleep a night. Up until 4 - 6 am then wake up at 7. Mind is racing a mile a minute. Keep picturing her with another guy. Stomach is in knots. Every time I try to ask if I am chasing something that is not there, she says I am pressuring or harassing her. Now, I have to shut up and try and gauge this on my own. I love this girl but I am going down the toilet with lack of sleep, food, etc. Do I go back to FL and slowly see her possibly and see if it can be repaired?
Just give her the time she needs. Don't force her not to have that time. Believe me she loves you but she needs to regain control of herself. I know it's difficult guys. Support her, comfort her, respect her decisions and understand her. Trust me after few days or weeks. She'll come back. It's her right. We're going through it right now. Two more months... we made an agreement to chat and call each other for a day every week. I believe her and I love her the most.
fuck that support, comfort and respect. you cant just dip in and out of the relationship whenever you feel like it. its not a 24/7 in n out. you think dudes dont have feelings??? they dont get hurt or is all the space, sorting out feelings and respect and support meant only to be given to women??? imagine what the guy goes through after hearing those words. and then to live in limbo of whether she comes back or not. not worth it. you seem to be too stupid to understand that she has you on a string.
This is different though. She was looking for options in this situation. To put rules for you to follow, you’re showing her that she can do as she pleases with you and that you don’t value your own time and have self respect. You should have told her that you respect her space but let her know that you’re not willing to be available at her disposal. Respectfully I know this didn’t have a happy ending
Sometimes they don’t tell you they need space they SHOW you they need space . Either way plan on going no contact forever if you have to. Don’t break no matter how hard it gets have self respect
Most girls are very influential by her friends and the people they spend time with. A lot of girls suffer from FOMO (fear of missing out) if they are in an exclusive relationship and their friends are single and going out they can feel they are missing someting which es just an ilussion....they are not missing anything. They are just insecure little knuckleheads that don´t know what they really want. Make yourself a favor. Just walk away and never look back...when they hit 35 and they are still single and lonely they will regret it.
When she says she wants a break, it's a prelude to a breakup. It most likely means she met someone else, or she's interested in someone else and she wants to go explore it. If it works out, she'll come back and break up with you. If it doesn't work with the other guy, she's going to try and come back and pretend she wasn't intimate with the other guy.
Or just tell her if you want a break this relationship is now open. Monogamy doesn't work long term anyway. People are fooling themselves if they believe so.
Gershwin Quintyne. Oh, contrare. That sentiment only fuels the brakeup even more. If you truly care......you will feel the need to test time and see what the truth is. Be a man and swallow your pride. If you feel it's worth it. You are delusional and probably don't want to try your best for someone. In which case, chances of her dumping you is far greater. It's you're choice
Wemen of today use the we need a break to call it off with you and walk away right to an other man. 6 yrs ago mine did it. Now it's called trading up. She is with you only tell someone she thinks has better or she thinks is better then you. Then she dumps you to be with the better. Or what looks like better then she has. My x now is 250lbs with 3 kids and severely depressed. Serves her right.
Ask yourself this one question when being asked for a break in the relationship..... "Would she ask for a break in a relationship with a millionaire?" You can thank me later. Now stop playing the "waiting game" and move the hell on!!!!!!!!! #RealTalk
Actually been in this situation. I was a hairdresser at the time dating a male model. He made a decent amount of money and was obviously very handsom. BUT he turned out to be a violent abusive person 6months into our relationship. Oh and had a wicked bad coke habbit! Long story short I left. Left the fancy condo and nice cars. He later over dosed and passed away in 2017. Wish I cared more but honestly he deserved it.
It hurts.. it really does, but I know it's for the better and we will get through it and come out as happy and prosperous people. Thank you so much Apollonia for this great video!
@@josemigo5933 I'll give you an update. It never turns out well when you're a simp. Grieve and move on. Use the hatred she left you with to grow stronger.
Conditional love is fantastic!! 👌 remember you were strangers before first many years don't put your full trust on her as woman are unpredictable and will leave in an instant. Be secure, have your assets ready and never rely on her to help you. Be strong kings. She'll comeback begin for you and that's the spot you want to be in.
This was the first video I saw. The first 3 minutes explained exactly what I’m feeling. This is an actually legitimate video. It explained so much. I’m very much a person invested in psychology and understanding people. This was very well explained. Thank you so much
When a woman needs a break, she is entitled to have it because she is an individual. No one can HAVE a person. We can enjoy each other's presence. It's a privilege to join two lives. But you must have your own. Fill your life with passion and purpose. Just like I would be entitled to keep on my path toward a purpose meaningful life. Empower people, build community, go hiking, take care of your physical and mental health, find events to attend, cultivate good in your soul, work on developing good character traits. That way whether she needs space or wants out...LIFE is still good. Hearing that used to scare me...NOT ANYMORE. Good topic!
So immature. Do you think a married guy can ask for a break to find himself? If you are not ok, get help, but don't ask someone to wait for you. Either stay or break up completely and accept the other person may move on. Better, help the other person move on instead of giving him false hope while you bang someone else to find yourself
When a women tells you "She needs a break " . Its for a few reasons . 1 The relationship with you has become somekind of headache. Arguing alot . 2 Shes contemplating breaking up with you. 3 Theres another guy in the picture she would like to go out with and try him out , and if everything goes well this new guy , your gonna get a phone call goodbye .
@Giovani - I totally agree with you on #3. I am going through this right now. That is my gut. She told me 3 yrs ago to try and date girls then see if she is the one. I think she is taking her own advice. Gives her time to check other guys out. Most likely, she will say goodbye within a couple of weeks. I am supposed to move to FL to try and work things out but I am not sure if this is a good idea right now.
All it means is you're her plan b, her convenience, a toy to be played with and put down. Don't get involved if you already plan not to be. Don't waste my time
Or because the guy is depressed and needs time to deal with his emotions and work towards a future or see none at all with that person. If you cant love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else
Greatest hurt of my life was about 15 months ago when she said she needed a break. We had been together for 2.5 years and she had never voiced an issue with our relationship. I was getting ready to propose to her because she was really the one for me. We had been looking at an apartment together just weeks before. That break ended up just being her not having the guts to break up with me. The same that she never had had the guts to voice any concerns about us before. She broke my heart utterly and completely. I loved her. I loved her family. My family loved her and most importantly, my kids loved her a lot. My youngest still talks a lot about her and says she wants to go visit. It hurts like hell still after all this time and sometimes I feel like I will never heal again...
They don't break up because they want to keep the option to come back in case the next person does not meet her expectations, or she gets bored again. Find someone else, don't waste your time
This helped me so much. Never been on a break, and I did start with the thinking she’s cheating phase. This helped and I think this will help me continue with this break and hope she’s the one.
I don't think she was banking on the fact that when she said she needed space, I needed it too and found that I was better off. It hurt because you spend so much time getting to know someone and of course you'll miss them but at the same time you find that there was some codependency, how your happiness had to revolve around hers and my god that's so exhausting. I feel relieved, and now I can explore my life with my new freedom. I wish her well.
Very true , translation men have some balls: show her what shes missing by not being available for her. Let her know calmly & non resentful, that you can respect her descision & take as much time for herself, but at the same time you wont be waiting on her & you will continue to go out & meet with other females.
I’m in a relationship of almost one year and just asked for a one month break, because I want a reset on our relationship. I want a break from all the arguments and to heal from them. I love him so much and want it to work. Not all “space” is falling out of love, or negative.
Girlllll me too. Day 3 right now.. the way I said it was unhealthy but when we have been arguing about him not doing the little things since we don’t see each other as often because of our hectic schedules. I try spend time with him by staying at his place but when I’m not there. He doesn’t call or text me to make sure I’m okay. I just took the break by telling him i needed one since he has no regards for my feelings and to leave me alone. I’m dying and I do love him but I’m just tired of being on different pages in our relationship and I dont want it to affect nursing school either so it’s tough.
Completely agree. My bf and i love each other but we have just become stuck and not moving forward. My self esteem is so low atm that we just need time for a new perspective. I am hurting as much as he is hurting. Even though we are going to go on a break i would never ever go behind his back. I just need a reset and find myself so i can be the best for him.
Gents, speaking from experience, when a woman wants a break, just treat it as a breakup and focus on your self. Be stoic and firm. Maintain the masculine energy. Show her the door. Help her pack, etc. Don’t show any care. You are worth more than you know. Swallow that red pill and move forward. You are a man. Act like one.
I love her so much that she did this to me,now shes making me feel i dont need her,suddenly im relief and free.If she reach out to me,i think i dont wanna proceed anymore
She told me that she wants a break at the worst possible time cuz I have an exam in 2 weeks.. and since she said that, I can't focus on studies nor sleep.. Cried my eyes out
@@randallvilla7015 Its not true for some. Sometimes if a wife or woman needs space its because has done everything in her power to give him a chance to change and he continues to betray her trust or does not realize what he has. She is just rethinking everything that you said and how your actions and words do not line up. Sometimes this is her last step to save the marriage or come to a conclusion of the inevitable and walk away for good. Sometimes this is the only option that she has. She still loves you but she has to weigh is it worth the cost
how do you know if she will still even take you back im currently in this situation and its hurting a lot, and its complicated because she has a 4 year old so I don't know when is a good time to visit and when is too much probably once every few weeks or such. But I don't know
Thanks for this video. My girl said she wanted a break 2 weeks ago after going on a 4 day trip with her friends. Been pretty hurt since. What makes it worse is she has no real plan on how the break would work since we live together and are raising 2 kids. But I uncontrollably bringing up the topic to see if she feels this way still and she does. So I’m going to use this time to get to know myself again. I feel more of a part of a family then I am my own person. That stops today. I’m not going to just stay sad and wait for her. I’m gonna move forward undeterred. Thank you
I'm going through this now. I can honestly tell you that i have never been so lost in all my life. I love her deeply and she asked for space which i agreed to but let me tell you I'm so frightened that she already knows the answer. My mind is in overdrive. I'm analysing EVERYTHING and it's making me unwell. I cant eat, sleep, think about anything but her. Ive cried so much i have a constant headache. The only person i want to speak to is her but i can't for fear I'll push her away. 7 years together, 5 years engaged and the happiest I've ever been. I have had a very dark past and this amazing, beautiful, kind, intelligent and electric woman shows up in my life and i honestly thought I'd struck gold. I cant lose her. I don't know what to do. I'm struggling so bad.
Bro, pretty much same scenario but dont forget that she left you. Man the fk up and keep reminding yourself that she LEFT! Go work out, kill your emotions and become a new person
My wife wanted a break. I did not communicate with her very well for the past couple of years and recently she has been handling most of our responsibilities for me.... this video has helped me so much. I need to stop worrying about what I think she wants and focus on myself and becoming the man she can love again.
1. If she actually does do what these comments are talking about just take the domestic violence case 2. If it’s not I hope you have a great relationship
the "break" made me realize all the slick and fowl things she said right before they wanted to "take a break" so now the spell is broken and the luster is gone.. so im good
my gf wanted to take a break bcs she wasn't attracted to me anymore but also wanted to keep contact during that month i told hell no, thats make no sense at all
@@PedroLucas-yl2uv this is actually the REAL reason women ask for breaks 95% of the time. To test out another guy, and keep you on standby in case it doesn't pan out. Not selfish at all...
I'm taking knows. This should be taught in school. Have compassion. Have self-dignity, Give up a self of control to the other person. Give the other person space. Invest in oneself. Show the type of man I have become. I own my individuality. Respect boundaries. Gain back my self of control. I need to focus on loving myself and my individuality.
If a woman says she needs a break. Tell her no.. we can break up..here and now. Forget that place holder situation. Tell her to hit you up when she figures it out. Maybe youll be single maybe you wont. Just keep lines of communication open and keep trucking..
Every relationship is different. To me I asked for space because of my mental health problems and because I don’t wanna affect my partner negatively when dealing with it. Not because I’m not interested anymore or I’m screwing anyone, usually most men think of it this way but it’s not really like that. As much as I wanna pretend that everything’s okay for me it’s just tough when you’re in situation like mine. 😔
I was told that this is the reason that my girlfriend wants our break so that she Can get all the stuff done that she needs too and not negatively affect me anymore but also when I have seen her lately she pulls away when I kiss her and can’t even really look at me
@@samhansen3235 dude it’s 🧢. It’s a stupid excuse. If a girl tells you that she wants space, bro she doesn’t love you. It happened to me recently and eventually she opened up about not loving me anymore.
Hope you're out of that situation , my girlfriend asked for a break 3 weeks ago, I know there was a lot on her shoulders, not sure if she felt that I'm needy , she didn't give me any answer, just told me she needs time to close something in herself , she needs time to figure out what and how does she want it, I'm important to her and she doesn't want me to feel mislead , actually I hope she will come back, but hope she is fine in every way
You still hurt your partner. Break says I don't want you around anymore -regardless how stressed you are. Especially if you have not had a talk about it and discussed the parameters of the break.
It could be that or she might need a break cause there’s something going on in her life something stressful🤙🏻 Not a brake from you but space to think about her life problems
When she told me this, I agreed and she said you agree? Yes. I was cool about it. I’ll save money, drama and time. I see this as a vacation and if it turns out to be permanent everyone wins!
Thank you for this video, I have three kids with my partner and I’ve never wanted so much in my life. It’s really hard at times but I’m trying to stay strong. She’s worth it.
I have never had this many goosebumps or felt so close to fight or flight because of how accurate this video was to me...I literally less than 6 hours ago just had this situation occur to me with my gf of 3 years next month. It genuinely feels like Apollonia is talking directly to me after overseeing the situation
My gf needed a break a week ago. Watching these videos helps me learn that all girls are the same and makes literally no sense to me now. I did learn a lot about myself being needy and insecure so I'm fixing that about myself, but the hardest thing for me is just being apart from her when we spend every day together for the last 4 months😔
same situation but opposite gender and my boyfriend doesn't said he want a break and man I feel bad for you.(I'm just craving attention since when I talk to him he never talk to me like when we used to be friends so I felt like I'm talking a mirror.)
I’ve done the exact method she recommends on doing. I left my ex to focus on our individual selves and she had a need to sleep with other men. Until she’s been hurt enough by other men not treating her properly she came back to me explaining “what we went through wasn’t even bad as she thought.” What I was trying to prevent in the first place I wasn’t even interested in the relationship anymore.
If you both are a good match, you will have found the right balance between too little & too much time spent together. You’ll have plenty of hours each day & days each week to yourselves; i.e. more than enough room for each person to have their “space.” Furthermore, your relationship will not hinder your ability to “experience personal growth,” “work on yourself,” “find yourself,” or “be your own individual.” If anything, it will help each of you to “find yourselves” better. She will bring out the best in him and he the best in her. If you both are right for each other and your relationship is healthy, there is nothing that can be gained from a “break” that you can’t achieve perfectly well without this “break.” Dating is a discernment process. You’re both exploring the question “are we right for each other?” There is a lot packed into that question and it can take a lot of time together to find the answer. Should it become clear the answer is “no,” the best thing to do is break off the relationship as cleanly as possible. Don’t wallow in indecisiveness and string the other person along. When a woman says “we need to take a break from seeing each other for a while,” this is an extremely strong indicator that you both aren’t right for each other; that the answer to the above question is “no.” End the relationship with a clean and definitive break so you’re both free to date others and hopefully you’ll both find someone with whom you are more compatible.
This has been very helpful, I’m going through this right now and I been depressed as hell. This made me clear minded and changed my whole perspective. I’m going to do just that. Thank you so freaking much!
Am going through a similar thing. Today's the fifth day we haven't talked and I was thinking about texting her. This video stopped that dead in it's tracks. Thank you Apollonia. You've been an absolute life saver ever since channel came out :)
@@ApolloniaPonti I have absolutely no one period to talk to I really need someone else's advise to help me get through this break my girlfriend wants at first she would never talk guys never add them on FB never did anything like that now couple months ago she starts adding all these.guys on FB says it for photo like she talks to one an she decided there going hang out at local Prk just them two for hour or so she didn't care how i felt about how bad it.botherd me she says that they just talked which I think they did sexual shit and of course she denies it and gets mad saying i accuse her but it's ok for her to always accuse me. She says she wants a break to not talk to her bother her that she needs to think And think about where she needs to be but then she blames it on me when. I already give her space I barley see her during day I text her she usually don't text back at times I always stay every night with her she says she loves me then she doesn't love.me. anymore that she couldn't get herself to have sex with me anymore cause it wouldnt feel right like I'm lost and need other people's opinions so I know to leave or stay I've never cheated on her like she thinks she says she isn't the cheating type cause she knows how it feels to be cheated on so y would she just go and hang with some dude by themselves for hour or two both times and not care one bit how it effects me she wonders why I accuse her of doing stuff with him
My girlfreind aaid that she needs some time.every time that i texed her and asked her if she misses me.ahe says yeah but i need some time. So did it work with u dude?
Didn't watch the video beforehand, but hearing this now makes me feel better. She has depression and wants to have personal growth. I really hope when she gets her space and achieve some peace with herself and comes back around. She told me how much I've achieved, but she wants to find her own growth
Facts she is sampling .....if the new dude has it...she is going to leave you.....if not she might run back to you and act like she just needed space for the betterment of you and her relationship when in all actuality she was cheating on you with him all along.....
yea shit happend to me she said she wanted to get back togeter then she texted my best freind like he wouldint tell me i didnt think it would hut as bad as it did
Wow I’m speechless bruh. That’s some fucked up shit. But look at it like this my guy she did you a favor by walking away. This is the opportunity for you to focus on yourself and better yourself. God brings people in your life and takes people out of your life for a reason. The grass ain’t always greener on the other side and the fact that she moved on that fast I will put my life on it that she will be miserable in that marriage in about a year or two. God don’t like ugly and Karma is a bitch. . Hopefully you read this comment I want you to remember something and all the gentlemen that are reading this I want y’all to follow this Moto. “ don’t stress yourself over people, things, or situations that’s out of your control” “ The best way to avoid disappointment is to not expect anything from anyone” we have to live life and move on gentlemen. These ladies are moving on with there’s so instead of being miserable at home get out the house better yourselves and get on your purpose.
@@ghostrecon8065 Bro I needed this. You’re 110% right, I’m going through this right now being at the start of this break and what you said helps a lot. Thank you man,
Recently I've been told from my girl friend that she wanted to take a break and I can say this hurt so badly. I cried and cried, I didn't understand why she'd need space from me...why we couldn't figure it out together but the upside Is she said that she doesn't want this to be the end of us.
This just happened to me a week before Christmas. She said she was getting too attached and needed time to think of what to do. Really opened up to this girl. First time in 6 years. I'm pretty tough as an athlete and having my own business.. but this cut deeply
She was getting to see beyond the glam, and decided well.. "not sure i want to be a part of this real world I'm discovering" Just walk away. And remember there's no scarcity.
shes given you an out brother, take and run. shes thrives on chaos and you're not bringing any hence the bullshit reason that "shes getting too attached." she wants the casual fun. and seems like you dont. tell her straight up that you dont breaks. you're too old for the high school bulllshit. you are either in a relationship to not. and walk away. and do not give her any more chances.
Wow! This is such great advice but jeez it’s so difficult to refrain from my natural tendency to “fix” things and like you said convince her to not take a break. I’m going through this right now (happened within the last 2 weeks) and emotionally I’m feeling everything you described, why me, what did I do wrong, how can I fix It, angry, sad, etc. Our relationship was great in my opinion but some external family and work stresses were her reasons for taking a break and that she just can’t give me the time and attention I deserve right now. My initial reaction was emotional and I called her and tried to convince her that I can help her get through this. I didn’t beg and wasn’t pushy so hopefully I didn’t do too much damage. Haven’t reached out to her in over a week which has been challenging holding back. Thank you for the video and I truly hope this works out but if it doesn’t then I guess she wasn’t the women for me. Take care and God bless
Whoever asks for the break, it is on them to get back. It's important to find out what they were going through on that break if they come back (Take time to fact check this / make sure story is consistent). High quality people will tell you the truth. If it was so they can explore other options, I would be very careful. Always have time for yourself in a relationship. Time to develop and do things that you enjoy. High quality people who care for you are happy you do this. Great video, as a lot of men do not use this time wisely.
I’m going through this at this moment, I was lost in what steps to take when she said she needed her space, after I saw this video it really opened my mind and to what steps to take after watching this video, I feel a little better now. Thank you for this video.
Thank you! Totally agree with what you say. I'm willing give as much space as needed. Time will only dictate the outcome. You are not less of a man to be willing to do this. It only reinforces your caring. Now if other factors are in in play, like the "macho dudes" would insinuate that cheating is occuring. That is an assumption, and you know what happens when you "assume". Time is of the essence here if you truly care for someone. And, no, I'm not a whimp. Good video!
Feels good to see, that I am not alone in this. It happens more often than I thought and I am sure, everyone who watches this, because they feel left alone: we will do it. Guys keep it up!
If she wants a break or to "take some space", she has lost attraction for you. You don't want to be with someone who is not attracted to you. She is playing immature games and you need to respect yourself enough to let her go. Women will move mountains to be with a man if they want to so if she isn't moving mountains, you need to be moving on. There are too many women out there in the world that will treat you with the respect that you deserve. I'm speaking from experience, had it happen to me. I lost my self respect and chased her after she told me she wanted space and she said wanted to do things for herself for awhile. Come to find out she started dating someone else shortly there after. Chasing causes you to look like a low value man, a high value man has options and doesn't need to chase so if she does this, let her go and move on. You are the prize. And don't accept her back if she changes her mind down the road. Don't dig through the trash after its been brought out to the curb.
I'm going through this break bullshit with my woman right now. It's been a month now but I did fuck up and was calling and texting her the first week. Then I stopped 9 days later she starts texting me How R U? but I keep the text message short. Im at the point where I'm losing interest in this woman. When she wants to come back im just gonna tell her I wanna extend our break until she realizes I broke up with her.
Yep that's a huge red flag. Who wants to play those games it's exhausting and exactly what she wants to wear you down emotionally over time. Been there done that not fun.
Ehhh, she have a few good points on this, but it’s a mind game most of the time/power shift but it’s mainly the “women’s ego” getting out of hand. What she was saying about the reasons is a bunch of excuses on there behalf to do what they do so they can sleep better at night for there actions. You have no control on people in general and that’s common sense. Guys, if they do that “need some space” just turn single again and get back on your grind, that by it self will cause her to come back because her ego is not gunna let go of a man that on his grind period.
Women: Men are terrible communicators... Also women: Give you silent treatment...storm off... insist on space/separation... tell you they're fine, when they're not.
Hello Mama! I was in a chaotic stateof mind after getting the treaded " I need a . . ." phrase from my partner off ten years. But after listening to your video I realised that it was in our best interest to have a break. It gave me the chance to have a closer look at myself. Then I was shoved to realise that certain lacks in me were making her vulnerable. This gave me something really practical to talk about next when we meet so that she could voice herself in a more open manner with the knowledge that we both see where the problem is. I and when we next meet, I have a more compassionate attitude towards her. I eel more secure to accept any outcome of our talk, to either stay and build up the relationship or move on with life. Thank you!
Wow!! You literally answered every question I had. My ex made that excuse about finding herself and needing space. Only to find out that she had been seeing someone else, she even went to his house the night she asked for a break. And she claims she loves me. I have finally accepted that we won’t be getting back together, I know she’s still talking to this guy on Snapchat. And she claims she cut him off. It’s crazy how I trusted her, and she chose to break my trust.

lol my now ex still wants me to believe the woman I caught at his house on the day of has nothing to do with the break up and that he's not trying to be with her, or currently with her and that I am the only one in his heart and shes not a replacement.😂😢😂. if she's not replacing me or it's nothing then, why is this woman driving over an hour+ to see his as🐴 on the same days we spent together? it contradicts his reasons (stress, overwork, hardship) for the separation. but today I am not too worried. she's not that great herself.
Update after 2 weeks break: I am writing this bec I haven't seen or rarely seen somebody sharing a story where the girl came back after a break Well, this girl took exactly 2 weeks. We saw each other last time on a sunday and then she wrote me on a saturday after 2 weeks break. First. It was hard for her and I knew that, as it was for me. I did everything that this extremely cool woman is saying. I haven't written her or checked her stories... nothing. Then she finally wrote me and i gave her the short answers. First it seemed to work. A bit of small talk and then i haven't replied again bec there was no question from her. I haven't asked anything like how the break has helped her or so. I acted like i don't give a fuck about anything. Later that night she wrote me again of how i am and we continued writing a bit until she told me that she wants to talk... We all know what's coming now She broke up. Said that it's not the best time for her to be in a relationship bla bla bla. And that's it. I was super chill. Told her... Ok I accept her decision... Strangely she found that reaction strange and asked why i am so cool with it. Well i expected this decision anyway. I told her that i am ok with it and that's it Move on guys. We deserve better 🙏🏼
Are you kidding me, that's freedom!! You get a chance to get your life back. Look, you don't have time to be playing games dealing with a broad that doesn't know if she wants to stay or go. Make the choice easy for her(there's the door). You get a chance to save money, food, and toilet paper(yes, I went there). And just like Apollonia said, "You can get your identity back(your purpose man)"; because chances are, that's the reason your broad decided to take a break. Look, get yourself back on track as the man you are (women find that attractive) and put this video on replay. [sidebar] I brought myself a store brought pizza for Black Friday and burnt it I only had two good slices out of the whole thing. Good video til next time... ~Cole
A break is the same thing as wanting space. She is basically tired of something you keep doing and just wants to move on. As a man you should know your worth and let her be so that you can focus on yourself so that your better prepared for a serious relationship in the future. Don't call or text and post pictures of you living your best life and she'll come crawling back, because the guy she thought she liked had nothing on you at the end of the day...
i am a pretty strong man mentally and i went throw this recently and i definitely have gone through emotions i have not gone through in my life. i learned a lot about myself and continue to grow myself . i do miss my ex but i do love the man i have become
Apollonia, can you do a few new videos for: 1- People who say they need alone time when they are suffering with depression. 2- How to successfully navigate long distance dating. And 3- How being on COVID lockdowns changes the normal relationship dynamics when you have to distance date. ? I think these will help not only me but everyone dealing with the suckiness of dating during COVID and what it changes.
Thank you so much for this video. My fiance and I have been together for 9 years so when said she needs a break, it hurt like hell. She's never really been her own person before, unfortunately we were codependent for a long time on each other financially. She wants to remember how to be her own person (shes also never lived alone before). It's complicated cause we live together so financially we also cant physically seperate from eachother yet. She says I deserve better and that she still loves me a lot but really needs to find out who she is. She always had a trauma response of hiding who she is whether to her family or just with me naturally she always put my needs first. Your video is very helpful.
So we are so used to being physical with eachother this whole time, so she said we could still be friends with benefits as we live together. Should I decide no we shouldn't? I'm trying to find out how to approach this especially when we live together. She loves me so much but her intuitive feeling is that she needs a break energy wise.
In this situation rn and honestly I am learning my self worth and my value. I am important, i am worth being loved and if at the end of this break things don’t work out I am going to continue to love myself to the fullest.
When we(Man) don't beg and do our things like normal, for sure things will be under control. She’ll know how much strong we are. That is needed for a woman. Woman seeks a strong character.
I understand everything you're saying this video but the most confusing thing about it is the woman that I'm dealing with said exactly what you said I need space whatever but I left her alone and she keeps contacting me every single day like if we're still some kind of exclusive relationship which she clearly wanted space from so that I don't respect and I don't like because this was not my idea to have this space cuz to me a relationship is not a video game you can't turn it on and off as you please
If you take her back she will break up with you again because she has the power in the relationship. Stay realistic men. A break means that she wants you to be her friend who listens to her bullshit. Meanwhile she's exploring her options and when she's sick of riding the cc she'll come back. Suddenly you will be the one for her. She knows it for sure now. Because she had some time for 'herself'. When she wants a break, date as many women as you can. Get physical, they do it too. I've experienced it myself. Married women who are in a 'break' come to you to do some crazy stuff. After that you won't hear them anymore because they got back with their ex. They always pretend it never happened. Never take them back. Or if you do, pump & dump.
Giving her time out and respecting and being consistent with all its implications is the only genuinely loving thing you can do and it is also the only thing that is significantly going to serve as a true indicator of empathy and understanding that might in turn just be what she needs.
Out of the whole video that was the only thing that didn't make sense to me . Every girl that has broken up with me has had every intention of trying to make my life shit and try and make me jealous in some way
Andrew Lindberg That definitely would be intentional. And that is different (I think) than what the author is trying to say. It’s a tough one. I dunno. Trying to offer something useful is proved difficult. There are ancient ideas that could help. Maybe someone is doing something intentionally. It’s how we respond that makes the difference. Today, I assure you was one of those days.
My ex broke up with me suddenly. A week later she asked to borrow some money to rent a car, which I gave her, only to find out her new “guy friend” was the one driving the rental around. That was pretty damn intentional if you ask me...
My ex fiancé gave me this speech back in 07, after five years together. I agreed so long as she wasn't seeing anyone else. She said there wasn't, but she lied. Once I confirmed, I shut the door on her. She tried a few times to come back, but to me, she was ruined. The dude got her on coke, and booze really heavy. I did meet up with her after a while, when she found more of my belongings to pick up. She looked terrible. 2012 was the last I heard from her. Right as my adventure was starting with the woman I'm STILL WITH, was out last conversation. Had the other guy not been involved, sure, no problem. But cheating on me is grounds for permanent dismissal. She was the most beautiful girl I was ever with, and it was difficult to walk away when she told me she wanted me back, but I had to be strong. I have no regrets!
I was in the same boat actually but instead I took her back because she convinced me that I was in the wrong. I had also slept with someone during that break. Becaus come on we all know what a break really means by now. Now 5 years later another break and saw her at the bar with some dude. So fellas trust me just drop her if she says this to you.
If she says she needs a break it means she wants to try it out with a better guy but wants you to wait in case it doesn't work out. True you can't control her just let her go and don't let her back in.
Great video and the only one that sunk in for me. Funny enough I gave her the space and only 4 days later she reached out to me saying she has missed me. So for me this worked. No contact to her and get busy in the meantime and post happy exciting stuff on social media then I'd say it will work. Focus on yourself more.
My Fiancee needed some space,wanted to find herself again and spend time with her family.And I totally support her.I made a lot of mistakes and wasn't communicating. Now we both live in different states.I made the mistake of calling and texting her.Which isn't showing her respect for her space.But I am learning from my mistakes.I have not talked to her in 2 days.I know this is going to be hard.But if it saves our relationship it will be totally worth every second.
You should not think you made a mistake for trying to communicate. It is natural to have emotions, which she does not respect. You should respect yourself and promise yourself not to ever contact her again. Even if it hurts to think about it. One day you may find yourself in a different position which someone who does not need space. Or you will find someone who will say I am breaking up with you because I want something else. And then you will compare these two women and feel more respect for the second. At that point you will realise how good it was to forget the first one.
Our "break" happened 8 months ago...she was talking to another guy and couldn't tell me. Dragged me along and lied for months, even though I knew something was going on. Still crushed.
This is one of the most refreshing videos I watched. Putting it from a women's perspective other than the males perspective give a good view of the situation.
Being told that she wants a break hurts like hell
Brittany Murphy oh bruh tell me bout it

Thanks, King!
Thank you
Thx Dee!
Thank u..
Break = she doesn't want for you to flood her with messages while dealing with other men
I think if this happens, then it's important for the guy to use his available time to become the best version of himself.
100%
yes
Yes, to move one to someone else not make yourself better for someone that left you hanging.

I think this video is the best I wish I had seen it soon in my life, it would of save my relationship
Stefan Ross it’s hard . When i did it it was easy but now she asked it and it’s hard
It has to be as soon as possible, the longer you stay the more convinced a woman becomes that you'll tolerate her crap.
I helped her heal family traumas. Helped her strenghten her self-confidence. I feel ripped apart hearing she wants to be alone. Thank you for making this video. I really love her and want to contiue watering her garden and have our flowers flourish. I am grateful for this gem you seeded in youtube. It pains me so much but your words are what I needed. One love.
P.s: brothers reading this! Please help yourself and your boo by doing what this lady says.
Thank you so much for your support!
Hey man any updates?
You same to be a strong and caring one, how'd it go man?
Glad you mentioned how the woman may suffer from depression or anxiety. Many don’t realize how mental health issues can have an effect on that. So yes! I need a break to figure out and think things through. If a guy isn’t willing to go to couples therapy with me, it’s a done deal.
Therapy? Omg run
Hahaha, that's why you don't deal with females that have depresion/anxiety. Run Forest, run!

@@cipryan96lmfao
As a woman, I've never told my man I want a break from our relationship, a break to me is going in the other room going to get my hair or nails done, taking a breather and coming back to revisit and solve our problems not running like a coward that can't multitask.
Meme 1981 hello I like your comments thanks you . Will like to get more advice from you
Respect
this is where its at
you are a real women . world and men need women like you .
This is the most sensible comment I have seen here so far. Running doesn't solve anything, but instead just saves the problem for later if anything.
Simply leave her alone. Let her reach back out to you. She will trust me. Focus on you and purpose. What i have noticed about women if yall have been through thick and thin, and she wants a break. She will learn the hardway and she will be back.
Don't accept that call, it will only show the woman that your still hung up on her.
So you will still take her back after sleeping with another guy...wtf
Yeah .... idk about that one chief
What if shes talking to me during the break ? Like there and then but it’s obviously not the same
I really hope she reaches back out, my stomach hurts from being so anxious about it
It’s been a day and by far this has been the hardest thing I’ve gone through. Coming from a man who used to play girls . I found the love of my life and this shit hurts.
I feel you. A woman can hurt me like no man can. Good advice here though in this video and thread for me. Good luck!
It only gets worse. I hardly eat and get maybe 3 hrs of sleep a night. Up until 4 - 6 am then wake up at 7. Mind is racing a mile a minute. Keep picturing her with another guy. Stomach is in knots. Every time I try to ask if I am chasing something that is not there, she says I am pressuring or harassing her. Now, I have to shut up and try and gauge this on my own. I love this girl but I am going down the toilet with lack of sleep, food, etc. Do I go back to FL and slowly see her possibly and see if it can be repaired?
You not alone I share the same story
Man I’m going through it to
Oi Gatos m8 what was the outcome? did you guys work it out? did she come back? im going through this now.. please advise. Thanks!!
Just give her the time she needs. Don't force her not to have that time. Believe me she loves you but she needs to regain control of herself. I know it's difficult guys. Support her, comfort her, respect her decisions and understand her. Trust me after few days or weeks. She'll come back. It's her right.
We're going through it right now. Two more months... we made an agreement to chat and call each other for a day every week. I believe her and I love her the most.
fuck that support, comfort and respect. you cant just dip in and out of the relationship whenever you feel like it. its not a 24/7 in n out.
you think dudes dont have feelings??? they dont get hurt or is all the space, sorting out feelings and respect and support meant only to be given to women???
imagine what the guy goes through after hearing those words. and then to live in limbo of whether she comes back or not. not worth it. you seem to be too stupid to understand that she has you on a string.
Thankyou for this comment❤
She loves u but she isnt in love with you because youre too needy along with everyone else in here
Yeah this is completely true if she cheated or do something wrong she’ll mask it up & just want complete peace…Ima pro now!
This is different though. She was looking for options in this situation. To put rules for you to follow, you’re showing her that she can do as she pleases with you and that you don’t value your own time and have self respect. You should have told her that you respect her space but let her know that you’re not willing to be available at her disposal. Respectfully I know this didn’t have a happy ending
Sometimes they don’t tell you they need space they SHOW you they need space . Either way plan on going no contact forever if you have to. Don’t break no matter how hard it gets have self respect
this just happened to me, haven't slept in 2 days.
I hope you're doing better bro
Same bro hope you doing better
Same broo but be patient if she is yours she will come back definitely
I havent slept more than a couple hours a night man. I felt that. Hope ur doing well
You are not alone...sweet dreams.
She’s not the only one in the relationship.
this
That’s what I’m saying.
Most girls are very influential by her friends and the people they spend time with. A lot of girls suffer from FOMO (fear of missing out) if they are in an exclusive relationship and their friends are single and going out they can feel they are missing someting which es just an ilussion....they are not missing anything. They are just insecure little knuckleheads that don´t know what they really want. Make yourself a favor. Just walk away and never look back...when they hit 35 and they are still single and lonely they will regret it.
Bro i feel you
Truth
You could consider hooking her friends up with men on drugs. That should give your woman space from the ones who are a bad influence on her.
Mariano Muruzabal big facts
Bro, i saved your comment. Everytime i think about my ex i read your comment
I'm here because it hurts like hell and need to hear this. Thank you...
Everything said was so spot on I can’t even explain the accuracy
When she says she wants a break, it's a prelude to a breakup. It most likely means she met someone else, or she's interested in someone else and she wants to go explore it. If it works out, she'll come back and break up with you. If it doesn't work with the other guy, she's going to try and come back and pretend she wasn't intimate with the other guy.
Or just tell her if you want a break this relationship is now open. Monogamy doesn't work long term anyway. People are fooling themselves if they believe so.
If she come back its even worse because she thinks its o.k to do that to you. Loose her number.
Damn right!!!!
Gershwin Quintyne. Oh, contrare. That sentiment only fuels the brakeup even more. If you truly care......you will feel the need to test time and see what the truth is. Be a man and swallow your pride. If you feel it's worth it. You are delusional and probably don't want to try your best for someone. In which case, chances of her dumping you is far greater. It's you're choice
This is me. Exactly what your saying
Wemen of today use the we need a break to call it off with you and walk away right to an other man. 6 yrs ago mine did it. Now it's called trading up. She is with you only tell someone she thinks has better or she thinks is better then you. Then she dumps you to be with the better. Or what looks like better then she has. My x now is 250lbs with 3 kids and severely depressed. Serves her right.
Damn!
The Boss That got dark quick, but it was her choice. Anyway, sorry that happened to you man
She told me she wanted space but she’s willing to have sex so it makes me question
Good for that bitch
I'm speechless, such things happen not in the US.
Ask yourself this one question when being asked for a break in the relationship.....
"Would she ask for a break in a relationship with a millionaire?"
You can thank me later. Now stop playing the "waiting game" and move the hell on!!!!!!!!! #RealTalk
Actually been in this situation. I was a hairdresser at the time dating a male model. He made a decent amount of money and was obviously very handsom.
BUT he turned out to be a violent abusive person 6months into our relationship. Oh and had a wicked bad coke habbit!
Long story short I left. Left the fancy condo and nice cars. He later over dosed and passed away in 2017. Wish I cared more but honestly he deserved it.
@@betternow1906 um yea...
Ofc she would. It ain't always bout money. Unless you're dating a teenager who can't get her own job.
It hurts.. it really does, but I know it's for the better and we will get through it and come out as happy and prosperous people. Thank you so much Apollonia for this great video!
Update? How did everything turn out?
@@josemigo5933 I'll give you an update. It never turns out well when you're a simp. Grieve and move on. Use the hatred she left you with to grow stronger.
Conditional love is fantastic!! 👌 remember you were strangers before first many years don't put your full trust on her as woman are unpredictable and will leave in an instant. Be secure, have your assets ready and never rely on her to help you. Be strong kings. She'll comeback begin for you and that's the spot you want to be in.
This was the first video I saw. The first 3 minutes explained exactly what I’m feeling. This is an actually legitimate video. It explained so much. I’m very much a person invested in psychology and understanding people. This was very well explained. Thank you so much
When a woman needs a break, she is entitled to have it because she is an individual. No one can HAVE a person. We can enjoy each other's presence. It's a privilege to join two lives. But you must have your own. Fill your life with passion and purpose. Just like I would be entitled to keep on my path toward a purpose meaningful life. Empower people, build community, go hiking, take care of your physical and mental health, find events to attend, cultivate good in your soul, work on developing good character traits. That way whether she needs space or wants out...LIFE is still good. Hearing that used to scare me...NOT ANYMORE. Good topic!
Is there a limit to how many Breaks in a relationship we can take?
@@woodedape haha, 1 break and dump the b.
So immature. Do you think a married guy can ask for a break to find himself? If you are not ok, get help, but don't ask someone to wait for you. Either stay or break up completely and accept the other person may move on. Better, help the other person move on instead of giving him false hope while you bang someone else to find yourself
When a women tells you
"She needs a break " .
Its for a few reasons .
1 The relationship with you has become somekind of headache.
Arguing alot .
2 Shes contemplating breaking up with you.
3 Theres another guy in the picture she would like to go out with and try him out , and if everything goes well this new guy , your gonna get a phone call goodbye .
She probably just wants to do her and bang other guys then try to get back together with u
Dump her...she is not yours is just your turn
@Giovani - I totally agree with you on #3. I am going through this right now. That is my gut. She told me 3 yrs ago to try and date girls then see if she is the one. I think she is taking her own advice. Gives her time to check other guys out. Most likely, she will say goodbye within a couple of weeks. I am supposed to move to FL to try and work things out but I am not sure if this is a good idea right now.
All it means is you're her plan b, her convenience, a toy to be played with and put down. Don't get involved if you already plan not to be. Don't waste my time
Or because the guy is depressed and needs time to deal with his emotions and work towards a future or see none at all with that person. If you cant love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else
Greatest hurt of my life was about 15 months ago when she said she needed a break. We had been together for 2.5 years and she had never voiced an issue with our relationship. I was getting ready to propose to her because she was really the one for me. We had been looking at an apartment together just weeks before.
That break ended up just being her not having the guts to break up with me. The same that she never had had the guts to voice any concerns about us before.
She broke my heart utterly and completely. I loved her. I loved her family. My family loved her and most importantly, my kids loved her a lot. My youngest still talks a lot about her and says she wants to go visit. It hurts like hell still after all this time and sometimes I feel like I will never heal again...
think of it as the trash taking itself out and clearing the cupboard for someone better to come in.
They don't break up because they want to keep the option to come back in case the next person does not meet her expectations, or she gets bored again. Find someone else, don't waste your time
you should be thankful . . . you dodged a bullet.
This helped me so much. Never been on a break, and I did start with the thinking she’s cheating phase. This helped and I think this will help me continue with this break and hope she’s the one.
I don't think she was banking on the fact that when she said she needed space, I needed it too and found that I was better off. It hurt because you spend so much time getting to know someone and of course you'll miss them but at the same time you find that there was some codependency, how your happiness had to revolve around hers and my god that's so exhausting. I feel relieved, and now I can explore my life with my new freedom. I wish her well.
Very true , translation men have some balls: show her what shes missing by not being available for her. Let her know calmly & non resentful, that you can respect her descision & take as much time for herself, but at the same time you wont be waiting on her & you will continue to go out & meet with other females.
Truest reply. I concur!
I’m in a relationship of almost one year and just asked for a one month break, because I want a reset on our relationship. I want a break from all the arguments and to heal from them. I love him so much and want it to work. Not all “space” is falling out of love, or negative.
Going through this now with my babys momma after 2.5 years of being together
One of A kind
Girlllll me too. Day 3 right now.. the way I said it was unhealthy but when we have been arguing about him not doing the little things since we don’t see each other as often because of our hectic schedules. I try spend time with him by staying at his place but when I’m not there. He doesn’t call or text me to make sure I’m okay. I just took the break by telling him i needed one since he has no regards for my feelings and to leave me alone. I’m dying and I do love him but I’m just tired of being on different pages in our relationship and I dont want it to affect nursing school either so it’s tough.
@@alsemm right? Me , me , me. Women are children I swear to fn God. They're kids.
Completely agree. My bf and i love each other but we have just become stuck and not moving forward. My self esteem is so low atm that we just need time for a new perspective. I am hurting as much as he is hurting. Even though we are going to go on a break i would never ever go behind his back. I just need a reset and find myself so i can be the best for him.
Gents, speaking from experience, when a woman wants a break, just treat it as a breakup and focus on your self. Be stoic and firm. Maintain the masculine energy. Show her the door. Help her pack, etc. Don’t show any care. You are worth more than you know. Swallow that red pill and move forward. You are a man. Act like one.
Speaking in terms of "pills" means you have no self worth and need to grow up.
I love her so much that she did this to me,now shes making me feel i dont need her,suddenly im relief and free.If she reach out to me,i think i dont wanna proceed anymore

What if you were mistreating her and she still love you so much to break up with you but needs time to figure out how to deal with that situation?
Ain't no situation, find some female friends and havr them take you out for ice cream.

When she done playing from a break ,dont take her back...a good woman never get or ask for break....childish ack...not worthy..
That's what I think too
@@randallvilla7015 Its not true for some. Sometimes if a wife or woman needs space its because has done everything in her power to give him a chance to change and he continues to betray her trust or does not realize what he has. She is just rethinking everything that you said and how your actions and words do not line up. Sometimes this is her last step to save the marriage or come to a conclusion of the inevitable and walk away for good. Sometimes this is the only option that she has. She still loves you but she has to weigh is it worth the cost
She could be testing your dancing skills so break dance and see if she battles you. I guess I got that right.
how do you know if she will still even take you back im currently in this situation and its hurting a lot, and its complicated because she has a 4 year old so I don't know when is a good time to visit and when is too much probably once every few weeks or such. But I don't know
Thanks for this video. My girl said she wanted a break 2 weeks ago after going on a 4 day trip with her friends. Been pretty hurt since. What makes it worse is she has no real plan on how the break would work since we live together and are raising 2 kids. But I uncontrollably bringing up the topic to see if she feels this way still and she does. So I’m going to use this time to get to know myself again. I feel more of a part of a family then I am my own person. That stops today. I’m not going to just stay sad and wait for her. I’m gonna move forward undeterred. Thank you
my wife asked for space. this fight feels different. i love her so much. this is tough. im glad im not the only one.
I'm going through this now. I can honestly tell you that i have never been so lost in all my life. I love her deeply and she asked for space which i agreed to but let me tell you I'm so frightened that she already knows the answer. My mind is in overdrive. I'm analysing EVERYTHING and it's making me unwell. I cant eat, sleep, think about anything but her. Ive cried so much i have a constant headache. The only person i want to speak to is her but i can't for fear I'll push her away. 7 years together, 5 years engaged and the happiest I've ever been. I have had a very dark past and this amazing, beautiful, kind, intelligent and electric woman shows up in my life and i honestly thought I'd struck gold. I cant lose her. I don't know what to do. I'm struggling so bad.
1 month Update, what happened? Did it work out
Lmao bruh died
I’m hoping your doing well brother just broke up too . Shit hurts but fuck these hoes
Bro, pretty much same scenario but dont forget that she left you. Man the fk up and keep reminding yourself that she LEFT! Go work out, kill your emotions and become a new person
@@PlatinumHustle not funny but funny uno aha
My wife wanted a break. I did not communicate with her very well for the past couple of years and recently she has been handling most of our responsibilities for me.... this video has helped me so much. I need to stop worrying about what I think she wants and focus on myself and becoming the man she can love again.
What if she fucks another dude during your break?
J Robles Then she belongs to the streets 🗿
She's definitely fucking someone else.
Please do as you said and ignore the above comments, God bless you and may God make it easy for you, Amin
1. If she actually does do what these comments are talking about just take the domestic violence case 2. If it’s not I hope you have a great relationship
When a woman tells you she needs a break: don't stick around and be her emotional and psychological puppet.
took me 9 months, but yeah I figured it out
the "break" made me realize all the slick and fowl things she said right before they wanted to "take a break" so now the spell is broken and the luster is gone.. so im good
my gf wanted to take a break bcs she wasn't attracted to me anymore but also wanted to keep contact during that month
i told hell no, thats make no sense at all
@@PedroLucas-yl2uv best decision
@@PedroLucas-yl2uv this is actually the REAL reason women ask for breaks 95% of the time. To test out another guy, and keep you on standby in case it doesn't pan out. Not selfish at all...
I'm taking knows. This should be taught in school. Have compassion. Have self-dignity, Give up a self of control to the other person. Give the other person space. Invest in oneself. Show the type of man I have become. I own my individuality. Respect boundaries. Gain back my self of control. I need to focus on loving myself and my individuality.
If a woman says she needs a break. Tell her no.. we can break up..here and now. Forget that place holder situation. Tell her to hit you up when she figures it out. Maybe youll be single maybe you wont. Just keep lines of communication open and keep trucking..
Every relationship is different. To me I asked for space because of my mental health problems and because I don’t wanna affect my partner negatively when dealing with it. Not because I’m not interested anymore or I’m screwing anyone, usually most men think of it this way but it’s not really like that. As much as I wanna pretend that everything’s okay for me it’s just tough when you’re in situation like mine. 😔
I was told that this is the reason that my girlfriend wants our break so that she Can get all the stuff done that she needs too and not negatively affect me anymore but also when I have seen her lately she pulls away when I kiss her and can’t even really look at me
@@samhansen3235 dude it’s 🧢.
It’s a stupid excuse. If a girl tells you that she wants space, bro she doesn’t love you.
It happened to me recently and eventually she opened up about not loving me anymore.
I also facing similar issue. How long this mental health last? Can u share your experience?
Hope you're out of that situation , my girlfriend asked for a break 3 weeks ago, I know there was a lot on her shoulders, not sure if she felt that I'm needy , she didn't give me any answer, just told me she needs time to close something in herself , she needs time to figure out what and how does she want it, I'm important to her and she doesn't want me to feel mislead , actually I hope she will come back, but hope she is fine in every way
You still hurt your partner. Break says I don't want you around anymore -regardless how stressed you are. Especially if you have not had a talk about it and discussed the parameters of the break.
This break hurts like hell but I am optimistic that it will make things better. Great videos!
How are things now?
Same here man hopefully everything worked out between you to.
Me too
i need a break is just another way of saying i found someone else. just break up right there.
I couldn't have said it better......FACTS
Not true all of the time you thick clampit
U must be very insecure
These 20 negative comments on your undeniable truthful comment were made by either bitches or blue pill weak beta simps!!! 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
It could be that or she might need a break cause there’s something going on in her life something stressful🤙🏻
Not a brake from you but space to think about her life problems
When she told me this, I agreed and she said you agree? Yes. I was cool about it. I’ll save money, drama and time. I see this as a vacation and if it turns out to be permanent everyone wins!
Thank you for this video, I have three kids with my partner and I’ve never wanted so much in my life. It’s really hard at times but I’m trying to stay strong. She’s worth it.
I have never had this many goosebumps or felt so close to fight or flight because of how accurate this video was to me...I literally less than 6 hours ago just had this situation occur to me with my gf of 3 years next month. It genuinely feels like Apollonia is talking directly to me after overseeing the situation
How is it now?
I have been with my wife since high school and we are going through this right now. Thanks for the video.
Did you guys get back bro? I hope you did.
Sometimes i think it's just boredom,
Same reason some men cheat.
Some.
My gf needed a break a week ago. Watching these videos helps me learn that all girls are the same and makes literally no sense to me now.
I did learn a lot about myself being needy and insecure so I'm fixing that about myself, but the hardest thing for me is just being apart from her when we spend every day together for the last 4 months😔
same situation but opposite gender and my boyfriend doesn't said he want a break and man I feel bad for you.(I'm just craving attention since when I talk to him he never talk to me like when we used to be friends so I felt like I'm talking a mirror.)
Bro this is literally me !!!!!!!!! God bless is both
She fked the other guy in that break period
@@MsIvargas and what happened….
I bet at one point earlier in the relationship you weren't needy. Something happened. probably from her. Don't be hard on yourself.
I’ve done the exact method she recommends on doing. I left my ex to focus on our individual selves and she had a need to sleep with other men. Until she’s been hurt enough by other men not treating her properly she came back to me explaining “what we went through wasn’t even bad as she thought.” What I was trying to prevent in the first place I wasn’t even interested in the relationship anymore.
Mine did it to me, and I'm pretty sure she did it to find a new man from her flock of orbiters.
I’m going through this right now I fought the urge to beg her I’m sad but Finding this video is confirmation I did the right thing .
If you both are a good match, you will have found the right balance between too little & too much time spent together. You’ll have plenty of hours each day & days each week to yourselves; i.e. more than enough room for each person to have their “space.” Furthermore, your relationship will not hinder your ability to “experience personal growth,” “work on yourself,” “find yourself,” or “be your own individual.” If anything, it will help each of you to “find yourselves” better. She will bring out the best in him and he the best in her. If you both are right for each other and your relationship is healthy, there is nothing that can be gained from a “break” that you can’t achieve perfectly well without this “break.”
Dating is a discernment process. You’re both exploring the question “are we right for each other?” There is a lot packed into that question and it can take a lot of time together to find the answer. Should it become clear the answer is “no,” the best thing to do is break off the relationship as cleanly as possible. Don’t wallow in indecisiveness and string the other person along. When a woman says “we need to take a break from seeing each other for a while,” this is an extremely strong indicator that you both aren’t right for each other; that the answer to the above question is “no.” End the relationship with a clean and definitive break so you’re both free to date others and hopefully you’ll both find someone with whom you are more compatible.
I agree! I feel like it's easier to discover myself and grow as a person when I’m in a really good relationship with great chemistry 😊
This has been very helpful, I’m going through this right now and I been depressed as hell. This made me clear minded and changed my whole perspective. I’m going to do just that. Thank you so freaking much!
Am going through a similar thing. Today's the fifth day we haven't talked and I was thinking about texting her. This video stopped that dead in it's tracks. Thank you Apollonia. You've been an absolute life saver ever since channel came out :)
Thank you so much, your comments mean a lot to me and I am glad you are finding value in my videos.
Apollonia
@@ApolloniaPonti I have absolutely no one period to talk to I really need someone else's advise to help me get through this break my girlfriend wants at first she would never talk guys never add them on FB never did anything like that now couple months ago she starts adding all these.guys on FB says it for photo like she talks to one an she decided there going hang out at local Prk just them two for hour or so she didn't care how i felt about how bad it.botherd me she says that they just talked which I think they did sexual shit and of course she denies it and gets mad saying i accuse her but it's ok for her to always accuse me. She says she wants a break to not talk to her bother her that she needs to think And think about where she needs to be but then she blames it on me when. I already give her space I barley see her during day I text her she usually don't text back at times I always stay every night with her she says she loves me then she doesn't love.me. anymore that she couldn't get herself to have sex with me anymore cause it wouldnt feel right like I'm lost and need other people's opinions so I know to leave or stay I've never cheated on her like she thinks she says she isn't the cheating type cause she knows how it feels to be cheated on so y would she just go and hang with some dude by themselves for hour or two both times and not care one bit how it effects me she wonders why I accuse her of doing stuff with him
How did the break go
@@ApolloniaPonti your pretty
My girlfreind aaid that she needs some time.every time that i texed her and asked her if she misses me.ahe says yeah but i need some time.
So did it work with u dude?
You are a blessing I been doing these steps and I'm seeing results but at the same time I miss her sooo much but I'm hanging in there :)
Peter Williams how did things end ? Just curious! Having similar situation.
Can u give us an update?? :(
Update pleasd
It’s all good bro, I’m going through the same thing, we got this king😔
She wants a break but she texts me almost everyday.
Didn't watch the video beforehand, but hearing this now makes me feel better. She has depression and wants to have personal growth. I really hope when she gets her space and achieve some peace with herself and comes back around. She told me how much I've achieved, but she wants to find her own growth
I started crying in middle of the night after just waking up
When a woman says she needs a "break" is when she wants to cheat on you. Just walk away Kings, she ain't worth it
She wants to cheat with out the guilt factor while keeping some poor bastard as a "back up". Another version of the friendzone.
Facts she is sampling .....if the new dude has it...she is going to leave you.....if not she might run back to you and act like she just needed space for the betterment of you and her relationship when in all actuality she was cheating on you with him all along.....
yea shit happend to me she said she wanted to get back togeter then she texted my best freind like he wouldint tell me i didnt think it would hut as bad as it did
Thanks for calling me a King bro, feels good. We men need to encourage each other more. I'll pass it forward.
Dump her...she is not yours is just your turn
After 2 and a half years of dating my ex, she said she wanted a break. Less than 6 months later she's engaged and getting married this month. RIP.
Wow I’m speechless bruh. That’s some fucked up shit. But look at it like this my guy she did you a favor by walking away. This is the opportunity for you to focus on yourself and better yourself. God brings people in your life and takes people out of your life for a reason. The grass ain’t always greener on the other side and the fact that she moved on that fast I will put my life on it that she will be miserable in that marriage in about a year or two. God don’t like ugly and Karma is a bitch. . Hopefully you read this comment I want you to remember something and all the gentlemen that are reading this I want y’all to follow this Moto. “ don’t stress yourself over people, things, or situations that’s out of your control” “ The best way to avoid disappointment is to not expect anything from anyone” we have to live life and move on gentlemen. These ladies are moving on with there’s so instead of being miserable at home get out the house better yourselves and get on your purpose.
@@ghostrecon8065 Bro I needed this. You’re 110% right, I’m going through this right now being at the start of this break and what you said helps a lot. Thank you man,
Recently I've been told from my girl friend that she wanted to take a break and I can say this hurt so badly. I cried and cried, I didn't understand why she'd need space from me...why we couldn't figure it out together but the upside Is she said that she doesn't want this to be the end of us.
Just focus on yourself man its the best option
Did she cone back?
This just happened to me a week before Christmas. She said she was getting too attached and needed time to think of what to do. Really opened up to this girl. First time in 6 years. I'm pretty tough as an athlete and having my own business.. but this cut deeply
She was getting to see beyond the glam, and decided well.. "not sure i want to be a part of this real world I'm discovering"
Just walk away.
And remember there's no scarcity.
shes given you an out brother, take and run. shes thrives on chaos and you're not bringing any hence the bullshit reason that "shes getting too attached."
she wants the casual fun. and seems like you dont. tell her straight up that you dont breaks. you're too old for the high school bulllshit. you are either in a relationship to not. and walk away. and do not give her any more chances.
Wow! This is such great advice but jeez it’s so difficult to refrain from my natural tendency to “fix” things and like you said convince her to not take a break. I’m going through this right now (happened within the last 2 weeks) and emotionally I’m feeling everything you described, why me, what did I do wrong, how can I fix It, angry, sad, etc. Our relationship was great in my opinion but some external family and work stresses were her reasons for taking a break and that she just can’t give me the time and attention I deserve right now. My initial reaction was emotional and I called her and tried to convince her that I can help her get through this. I didn’t beg and wasn’t pushy so hopefully I didn’t do too much damage. Haven’t reached out to her in over a week which has been challenging holding back. Thank you for the video and I truly hope this works out but if it doesn’t then I guess she wasn’t the women for me. Take care and God bless
1 year later, what happened?
She broke up with me because of long distance 😂😂 after 2 years relationship her 3 months courses changed her mind
@@taigamizo3370 did the break end up working out though?
Bro ended up being a hiker
Whoever asks for the break, it is on them to get back. It's important to find out what they were going through on that break if they come back (Take time to fact check this / make sure story is consistent). High quality people will tell you the truth. If it was so they can explore other options, I would be very careful.
Always have time for yourself in a relationship. Time to develop and do things that you enjoy. High quality people who care for you are happy you do this.
Great video, as a lot of men do not use this time wisely.
I’m going through this at this moment, I was lost in what steps to take when she said she needed her space, after I saw this video it really opened my mind and to what steps to take after watching this video, I feel a little better now. Thank you for this video.
Thank you! Totally agree with what you say. I'm willing give as much space as needed. Time will only dictate the outcome. You are not less of a man to be willing to do this. It only reinforces your caring. Now if other factors are in in play, like the "macho dudes" would insinuate that cheating is occuring. That is an assumption, and you know what happens when you "assume". Time is of the essence here if you truly care for someone. And, no, I'm not a whimp. Good video!
Feels good to see, that I am not alone in this. It happens more often than I thought and I am sure, everyone who watches this, because they feel left alone: we will do it. Guys keep it up!
Well fuck. I’m single now
@@mustermann839 dude I’m really sorry to hear that. How are you feeling ? I will pray for you.
If she wants a break or to "take some space", she has lost attraction for you. You don't want to be with someone who is not attracted to you. She is playing immature games and you need to respect yourself enough to let her go. Women will move mountains to be with a man if they want to so if she isn't moving mountains, you need to be moving on. There are too many women out there in the world that will treat you with the respect that you deserve. I'm speaking from experience, had it happen to me. I lost my self respect and chased her after she told me she wanted space and she said wanted to do things for herself for awhile. Come to find out she started dating someone else shortly there after. Chasing causes you to look like a low value man, a high value man has options and doesn't need to chase so if she does this, let her go and move on. You are the prize. And don't accept her back if she changes her mind down the road. Don't dig through the trash after its been brought out to the curb.
I'm going through this break bullshit with my woman right now. It's been a month now but I did fuck up and was calling and texting her the first week. Then I stopped 9 days later she starts texting me How R U? but I keep the text message short. Im at the point where I'm losing interest in this woman. When she wants to come back im just gonna tell her I wanna extend our break until she realizes I broke up with her.
Been there
So true
Couldn't have said it better, bravo 👏👏👏
Keep it simple. When a girl tells you she wants a “break”, DUMP HER!!!!! And enjoy your freedom
Yep that's a huge red flag. Who wants to play those games it's exhausting and exactly what she wants to wear you down emotionally over time. Been there done that not fun.
You don't have to dump her, just don't engage during or after the "break" bye bye
Thats why gay exist,they had enough with females
exactly
@@jessjess3369 😂
Ehhh, she have a few good points on this, but it’s a mind game most of the time/power shift but it’s mainly the “women’s ego” getting out of hand. What she was saying about the reasons is a bunch of excuses on there behalf to do what they do so they can sleep better at night for there actions. You have no control on people in general and that’s common sense. Guys, if they do that “need some space” just turn single again and get back on your grind, that by it self will cause her to come back because her ego is not gunna let go of a man that on his grind period.
Women: Men are terrible communicators...
Also women: Give you silent treatment...storm off... insist on space/separation... tell you they're fine, when they're not.
Yes this is basically my girlfriend lol
Hello Mama! I was in a chaotic stateof mind after getting the treaded " I need a . . ." phrase from my partner off ten years. But after listening to your video I realised that it was in our best interest to have a break. It gave me the chance to have a closer look at myself. Then I was shoved to realise that certain lacks in me were making her vulnerable. This gave me something really practical to talk about next when we meet so that she could voice herself in a more open manner with the knowledge that we both see where the problem is. I and when we next meet, I have a more compassionate attitude towards her. I eel more secure to accept any outcome of our talk, to either stay and build up the relationship or move on with life. Thank you!
What she doesn't understand is that we want to work it out quick because when we walk away, we know we aren't coming back.
Wow!! You literally answered every question I had. My ex made that excuse about finding herself and needing space. Only to find out that she had been seeing someone else, she even went to his house the night she asked for a break. And she claims she loves me. I have finally accepted that we won’t be getting back together, I know she’s still talking to this guy on Snapchat. And she claims she cut him off. It’s crazy how I trusted her, and she chose to break my trust.
I am glad this video was helpful. Take this time to do some self development and focus on your goals. I have included a blog I wrote to assist you with your personal growth.
www.apolloniaponti.com/how-to-find-your-life-purpose-8-powerful-questions-to-get-you-started/
lol my now ex still wants me to believe the woman I caught at his house on the day of has nothing to do with the break up and that he's not trying to be with her, or currently with her and that I am the only one in his heart and shes not a replacement.😂😢😂. if she's not replacing me or it's nothing then, why is this woman driving over an hour+ to see his as🐴 on the same days we spent together? it contradicts his reasons (stress, overwork, hardship) for the separation. but today I am not too worried. she's not that great herself.
Update after 2 weeks break:
I am writing this bec I haven't seen or rarely seen somebody sharing a story where the girl came back after a break
Well, this girl took exactly 2 weeks. We saw each other last time on a sunday and then she wrote me on a saturday after 2 weeks break. First. It was hard for her and I knew that, as it was for me. I did everything that this extremely cool woman is saying. I haven't written her or checked her stories... nothing. Then she finally wrote me and i gave her the short answers. First it seemed to work. A bit of small talk and then i haven't replied again bec there was no question from her. I haven't asked anything like how the break has helped her or so. I acted like i don't give a fuck about anything. Later that night she wrote me again of how i am and we continued writing a bit until she told me that she wants to talk... We all know what's coming now
She broke up. Said that it's not the best time for her to be in a relationship bla bla bla. And that's it. I was super chill. Told her... Ok I accept her decision... Strangely she found that reaction strange and asked why i am so cool with it. Well i expected this decision anyway. I told her that i am ok with it and that's it
Move on guys. We deserve better 🙏🏼
Are you kidding me, that's freedom!! You get a chance to get your life back. Look, you don't have time to be playing games dealing with a broad that doesn't know if she wants to stay or go. Make the choice easy for her(there's the door). You get a chance to save money, food, and toilet paper(yes, I went there). And just like Apollonia said, "You can get your identity back(your purpose man)"; because chances are, that's the reason your broad decided to take a break. Look, get yourself back on track as the man you are (women find that attractive) and put this video on replay. [sidebar] I brought myself a store brought pizza for Black Friday and burnt it I only had two good slices out of the whole thing. Good video til next time... ~Cole
That sounds so bad. What's wrong with spending your money according to a woman's schedule and belief? Wait, I'm tripping never mind.
Yeah but there are people who stilllove more to be with the love of life then the normal life they had
Coley Gray bro I loved this comment.. thank you
Bro I needed this 😭😭😭thank u
I’m going through this right now and it’s only a few days before my birthday! But this makes so much sense! My no contact rule STARTS TODAY!!!!!!
A break is the same thing as wanting space. She is basically tired of something you keep doing and just wants to move on. As a man you should know your worth and let her be so that you can focus on yourself so that your better prepared for a serious relationship in the future. Don't call or text and post pictures of you living your best life and she'll come crawling back, because the guy she thought she liked had nothing on you at the end of the day...
i am a pretty strong man mentally and i went throw this recently and i definitely have gone through emotions i have not gone through in my life. i learned a lot about myself and continue to grow myself . i do miss my ex but i do love the man i have become
Apollonia, can you do a few new videos for:
1- People who say they need alone time when they are suffering with depression.
2- How to successfully navigate long distance dating. And
3- How being on COVID lockdowns changes the normal relationship dynamics when you have to distance date.
? I think these will help not only me but everyone dealing with the suckiness of dating during COVID and what it changes.
Thank you so much for this video. My fiance and I have been together for 9 years so when said she needs a break, it hurt like hell. She's never really been her own person before, unfortunately we were codependent for a long time on each other financially. She wants to remember how to be her own person (shes also never lived alone before). It's complicated cause we live together so financially we also cant physically seperate from eachother yet. She says I deserve better and that she still loves me a lot but really needs to find out who she is. She always had a trauma response of hiding who she is whether to her family or just with me naturally she always put my needs first. Your video is very helpful.
So we are so used to being physical with eachother this whole time, so she said we could still be friends with benefits as we live together. Should I decide no we shouldn't? I'm trying to find out how to approach this especially when we live together. She loves me so much but her intuitive feeling is that she needs a break energy wise.
Dude this situation makes you go through madness overtime.
In this situation rn and honestly I am learning my self worth and my value. I am important, i am worth being loved and if at the end of this break things don’t work out I am going to continue to love myself to the fullest.
When we(Man) don't beg and do our things like normal, for sure things will be under control. She’ll know how much strong we are. That is needed for a woman. Woman seeks a strong character.
“Woman of my dreams?”
She doesn’t exist in reality.
Should I blocked my girlfriend from my phone during this time?
Real women are a pain in the ass I wish anime girls are real
I understand everything you're saying this video but the most confusing thing about it is the woman that I'm dealing with said exactly what you said I need space whatever but I left her alone and she keeps contacting me every single day like if we're still some kind of exclusive relationship which she clearly wanted space from so that I don't respect and I don't like because this was not my idea to have this space cuz to me a relationship is not a video game you can't turn it on and off as you please
So what are ur farther opinions and what more u have come up with.... solutions bro...having sa same situation
@@deevankmadaan9618 just cut her loose. You are nobodys toy.
If she really wants you she won’t want or need a break. put that selfish broad behind you.
Have that break , make it permanent.
What if you were mistreating her and she still love you so much to break up with you but needs time to figure out how to deal with that situation?
Lester Blackmore that’s not true
Mila Mus exactly
@@milamus4758 then she talk 😇
If you take her back she will break up with you again because she has the power in the relationship. Stay realistic men. A break means that she wants you to be her friend who listens to her bullshit. Meanwhile she's exploring her options and when she's sick of riding the cc she'll come back. Suddenly you will be the one for her. She knows it for sure now. Because she had some time for 'herself'. When she wants a break, date as many women as you can. Get physical, they do it too. I've experienced it myself. Married women who are in a 'break' come to you to do some crazy stuff. After that you won't hear them anymore because they got back with their ex. They always pretend it never happened. Never take them back. Or if you do, pump & dump.
Giving her time out and respecting and being consistent with all its implications is the only genuinely loving thing you can do and it is also the only thing that is significantly going to serve as a true indicator of empathy and understanding that might in turn just be what she needs.
I messed it up. I reacted.
SAME. i hope you're doing better man :c
Same bro I’m fuckin scared
“No one is doing anything intentionally to you.” That’s a stretch of the truth and is not realistic.
Out of the whole video that was the only thing that didn't make sense to me . Every girl that has broken up with me has had every intention of trying to make my life shit and try and make me jealous in some way
Andrew Lindberg That definitely would be intentional. And that is different (I think) than what the author is trying to say. It’s a tough one. I dunno. Trying to offer something useful is proved difficult. There are ancient ideas that could help. Maybe someone is doing something intentionally. It’s how we respond that makes the difference. Today, I assure you was one of those days.
My ex broke up with me suddenly. A week later she asked to borrow some money to rent a car, which I gave her, only to find out her new “guy friend” was the one driving the rental around. That was pretty damn intentional if you ask me...
When A Women Says She Needs A Break That Means She’s Breaking Up With You In A Nice Way Guys
Dump her...she is not yours is just your turn
My ex fiancé gave me this speech back in 07, after five years together.
I agreed so long as she wasn't seeing anyone else.
She said there wasn't, but she lied.
Once I confirmed, I shut the door on her.
She tried a few times to come back, but to me, she was ruined. The dude got her on coke, and booze really heavy. I did meet up with her after a while, when she found more of my belongings to pick up. She looked terrible.
2012 was the last I heard from her.
Right as my adventure was starting with the woman I'm STILL WITH, was out last conversation.
Had the other guy not been involved, sure, no problem. But cheating on me is grounds for permanent dismissal. She was the most beautiful girl I was ever with, and it was difficult to walk away when she told me she wanted me back, but I had to be strong.
I have no regrets!
I was in the same boat actually but instead I took her back because she convinced me that I was in the wrong. I had also slept with someone during that break. Becaus come on we all know what a break really means by now. Now 5 years later another break and saw her at the bar with some dude. So fellas trust me just drop her if she says this to you.
If she says she needs a break it means she wants to try it out with a better guy but wants you to wait in case it doesn't work out.
True you can't control her just let her go and don't let her back in.
Great video and the only one that sunk in for me. Funny enough I gave her the space and only 4 days later she reached out to me saying she has missed me. So for me this worked. No contact to her and get busy in the meantime and post happy exciting stuff on social media then I'd say it will work. Focus on yourself more.
My Fiancee needed some space,wanted to find herself again and spend time with her family.And I totally support her.I made a lot of mistakes and wasn't communicating. Now we both live in different states.I made the mistake of calling and texting her.Which isn't showing her respect for her space.But I am learning from my mistakes.I have not talked to her in 2 days.I know this is going to be hard.But if it saves our relationship it will be totally worth every second.
If she now lives somewhere else it's basically saying let go as if she moved on but if she's in the same state that's different
You should not think you made a mistake for trying to communicate. It is natural to have emotions, which she does not respect. You should respect yourself and promise yourself not to ever contact her again. Even if it hurts to think about it. One day you may find yourself in a different position which someone who does not need space. Or you will find someone who will say I am breaking up with you because I want something else. And then you will compare these two women and feel more respect for the second. At that point you will realise how good it was to forget the first one.
Thanks! I was feeling so depressed. I am feeling a little optimistic now.
Our "break" happened 8 months ago...she was talking to another guy and couldn't tell me. Dragged me along and lied for months, even though I knew something was going on. Still crushed.
Idc what nobody says women will always be the biggest liars on the planet
Happened with me today! I cried a lot, but I respect and love her and I'll respect her's decision!
@ErikSL how did it go or going?
This is one of the most refreshing videos I watched. Putting it from a women's perspective other than the males perspective give a good view of the situation.
