    I don't know about all this. I don't feel that it's your job to keep your partner emotionally stable. If she's snapping at you because she's hungry or because she had an argument with a friend, that's transference, which is wrong. As your partner you are supposed to be her pillar of support, not her punching bag. You're also not a mind reader. Granted, knowing her needs and giving her a hug when she needs one is a good sign of support, but it's not your job to read your partner's mind. They need to communicate better.

      Hmmm, but noo...I think we Should be able to sense the needs of people surrounding us. Be it a romantic relationship, our parents, children etc. We spend so much time around the closest to us that eventually they will see our ugly side and vice versa. It`s all about handling the situation. When a child comes to me crying I don`t tell her that "I am not your punching bag", if someone is feeling sad for days because they lost their job, I don`t diminish it and just give them a hug and pat on the back #supportjobdone. What he is talking about is our ying and yang energy. We all of course have both-feminine and male energy in our personality yet of course if being in a polarized relationship-we need to balance each other weaknesses. If you have a relationship with someone who is energetic, emotional, has lots of friends etc. and you love that part because it makes the life fun, we also need to accept the downsides-if they are sad they are really Sad etc. If someone is super stable the downside is that they might be boring, passive etc. and to make the romantic life fun-the other person balances it with being the active "firestarter". In the end Stepford wives and husbands only exist on the TV screen. Real life humans are more complex than that which means that we need to pay more attention. It`s called empathy. Realistically you cannot expect the other person always communicate their needs and desires off the bat like a psychological robot.

      When a child comes crying to you, you provide a shoulder for them to cry on.
      If that child came crying and then kicked you in the shin for no reason other than it made them feel better, would you deem it acceptable?
      If an adult loses their job, you provide a shoulder for them to cry on and talk them through it.
      If that adult loses their job, and starts yelling at you out of frustration, is that acceptable?
      No.

      It may be wrong, but it is common in most people. Folks snap, especially woman during the time when their hormones are in flux. It's biological.
      IMHO, folks need to look at the bigger picture and not lay blame on either. Communication is the key (as you said), but men and women communicate differently. Both sides need to understand that and learn how the other communicate and NOT assume one is correct and the other wrong.
      Just my opinion.

      But that is incorrect. Your opinion is based on outdated theories in psychology. Modern research indicates that attachment and dependency are perfectly healthy ways of humans to express themselves. In fact, this notion that you have to be happy before entering in a relationship can have extremely destructive effects on people's mental health. In other words, it's okay to need to people. There is nothing unhealthy about that, and it's perfectly plausible to have a successful relationship without being "independently happy".

    I want to tell you the reason why women never say anything directly.
    It's because she doesn't want you to do something as an obligation, just because she asked. She thinks that if you love her, you'll genuinely want to spend quality time with her, give her attention and be faithful to her. If you don't do it at your own will, she'd assume you're not interested, and she doesn't want to force you to do something you don't enjoy doing. She'll still be offended, but not at you not spending time with her. The offence lies much deeper, she'll assume you don't love her as much as she loves you. As a result, even if you force her to spill out what she wants, and give it to her, it still won't be the same because it will give an impression that you only do it because you serve your duty and not because you want and enjoy it from the bottom of your heart.

      Well, a lot of the time it's not so cut and dry. Some men cheat and still stay in the relationship. They are making the choice to stay, but not because they respect the relationship. They stay because it's easier than breaking up or they are scared to lose something that was important to them in the past. The one thing that women are scared of is not being enough and that someone is going to choosing someone else. That's why they really want their significant other to make actions from the bottom of their heart. Simply remaining in the relationship doesn't mean the guy loves her. We all have had fake friends and should of cut them out of our lives, but that's sometimes difficult.

    • @vc1163

      Emotionally intelligent (who are balanced and can sense non verbal ques or social subtexts, etc etc,) men who easily initiate what is needed to done is the qualities in a good, stable partner. Men who say "why can't women just say what they want" aren't mature for a relationship.
      Women can easily say what they want, then what, men just usually don't even do it. Even so, not everyone wants to be so direct. Thats not a fault.
      They need to have the maturity to be able to sense things, initiative spirit, and good communication skills. Which aren't taught at all these days, because the baby boomer parents are TERRIBLE at those things themselves (most are divorced).
      If you keep going "women this and women that" and blaming women all the time, it's actually you who needs to step up and develop because you aren't being a compatible person to the opposite gender. (I dont wanna hear "but dem womenz do ____", this comment is male critique.)

    I'm sure there is some truth to the dichotomy of masculine and feminine core - which can definitely be applied in not just male/female relationships. I've been married and have been with my wife for 6 years and I can tell you that it all comes down to communication and honesty. Playing those passive games like, "Yea.. I'm fine." Doesn't fly and will drag a relationship down. You need a stable ground of honesty and mutuality; a relationship is a co-operation. If one party wants to play games instead of report issues that need fixed, the entire ship is going to sink.

      I agree with both parties communicating but I also have to disagree about the masculine and feminine dichotomy. I don't think that it is effective in a relationship to simply ignore these differences, but recognize and respect it as equal but different. If you don't respect the others difference, resentment may develop in the other party even if it's not stated. However, these differences can create problems if both do not choose to work going beyond those differences. For example, if the guy is unable to pick up emotional or body language cues and if that's a masculine trait, then he has to work on that and vice versa with the female verbalizing her true feelings, all in all achieving the goal of communicating but also respecting each other's differences.

    Young fella, already smarter than I was at that age. However the same advice goes to women too, they also need to keep their friends, hobbies, interests and part of their selves to themselves. You cannot do everything together. At the same time, long term couples need to have a one night a week where they focus on each other and that does not mean passively watching a movie. You have to participate in something interactive, doing an activity together or even having a nice night at home but with with actual conversations and fun.

He was going through a lot and tried to protect me from worrying about him and that made me feel like he can't count on me when he needs to go through tough times. I'd really appreciate it if you made a video about the same situation, but this time, what the feminine partner needs to do.

      For the love of God dont take this advice, its horrible. Whenever you find yourself "guessing" what your partners needs are, the problem lies with them, not with you. Women, too, are responsible for their actions and communication. If a girl bitches to you because she's hungry, its a problem. In no way shape or form is getting annoyed by that you fault. This whole video is clear example of the feminization of men in current western civilation. Its sad, really.

    The amount of disrespect and nitpicking in the comments amaze me.
    And tbh, I don't think that he is completely blaming himself in this video like some of you are claiming. Yes, it is unhealthy to blame yourself entirely for the downfall of the relationship, especially when you are at your weakest after the breakup, but I don't think that is what he is doing here. He is only giving HIS thoughts, telling you HIS shortcomings from HIS perspective, and how someone who is or had gone through something similar and did or is doing what he did can improve in the relationship. I think that he did not mention what his ex really did wrong as he does not have her thoughts or experiences and cannot describe it to you fully. Like he said he is just speaking from a masculine perspective and that there is a feminine perspective. 14:00

      People like him are the ones who will grow out of their own shell. I can see all of his potential mistakes and should he ever end up in a relationship again he will know exactly what to watch out for.
      Taking the responsibility is very masculine. Blaming her wouldn't really open up a better perspective, instead it leads to stagnation.

    • @yikes7607
      @yikes7607 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The fact he thinks his perspective is masculine is likely itself the wrong premise. "My masculine center", WTF does that even mean? Being so afraid the relationship would end and forcing it to work when it clearly was not defies reason and is not an attitude generally considered masculine. It shows lack of objectivity and too much emotional attachment to face the situation. Even the girlfriend didn't think the three weeks together would solve anything; perhaps she was more masculine. After all, what we generally deem masculine and feminine characteristics is a convention, but both sexes have a set of either traits. This guy, like many others, may not be as masculine as he thinks.

      "Being so afraid the relationship would end and forcing it to work when it clearly was not defies reason and is not an attitude generally considered masculine."
      Exactly, thus he said that he lost part of his "masculine energy" (or how he calls it in the video, masculine center). It wasn't his normal behavior, he lost himself. That doesn't mean he "may not be as masculine as he thinks"; you need to take into consideration the context to make such a statement.
      By "masculine center" I'm pretty sure he's naturally more inclined to "masculine energy" than his "femenine energy" (everyone has both); take in mind that most people gravitate towards one and it's really difficult to be perfectly balanced. So it makes sense what he said in the video, if you think about it.
      I hope you have a nice day/night~

      @@louise558 He didn't lose his masculine center as he puts it so nicely, rather the masculine attributes he thought he possessed (because there are social and cultural pressures forcing men and women to behave in certain different ways) were put to the test and failed. He is simply not as masculine as he believes or wishes to portray himself, and this relationship as an experience brought it to light. No one is 100% masculine or feminine; this guy just found his feminine side is more prominent under stress.

      I mean, it can certainly be the case.

And yes, I know no one is 100% masculine or femenine, as I said in my previous comment.

I'm the spontaneous "don't ever make plans just do" kind of guy, and I've always been drawn to the hold up lets make plans and make sure everything goes right kind of girls. The labeling of masc or femme doesn't bother me too much since I understand what he's saying and I'm secure in my masculinity, but it definitely can be confusing to people that see themselves in the description of their opposite gender. I think dropping those words would be helpful at the very least in giving the ability to express ourselves more clearly

    A lot of people are saying the girl should explain to the guy why she’s upset and not expect them to read their mind and I agree, however, in my past relationship anytime I got upset, my boyfriend got angry and I genuinely believe that it’s the wrong response to have, even though it may be coming from a somewhat thoughtful place. There’d be times where I’d explicitly explain to my ex that I was just feeling down and that I’d get over it eventually, and instead of receiving compassion and understanding of the emotions I was going through, I was greeted with confusion and frustration, and him having the urge to try and make me feel better immediately, as if I had a switch I could just turn off. I’m human, I go through difficult times often for no real reason. I’ll try my best to explain why but I can by no means just “stop being sad” suddenly. To me that’s very artificial and robotic. When he was upset I let him go through the motions, but he didn’t give me that same reaction and I genuinely believe that had a significant effect as to why we separated.
    Still hurting but looking back at what went wrong can slowly make you realize why it probably happened the way it did.

      Very good point. It's like practicing assertiveness not just for oneself but also for the partner, to accept emotions as they are, to give them space, instead of forcing them and try to get only desired ones. And as everyone knows: To give emotions their space is the best way to handle them. An ex of mine also mentioned in our break-up time that she had trouble with my depressive phases, without reflecting any possible solutions (even though I was never aggressive or rejecting in these phases) which gave me the feeling of not being good or loveable as I am and that there is no space for parts of my personality. Well, I guess it is better to not continue such a relationship.

    Mmmm, I wouldn't go so far as to call it losing you "masculine center", you just lost your center. Masculine/Feminine has nothing to do with it other than potentially influencing the symptomatic behaviors that emerge as a result. I think what happened could (and does) happen to anyone, regardless of age, sexual identity, or orientation.
    Somewhere along the line, you became insecure about the stability/future of your relationship and as a result you gradually:
    Over-isolated yourself from your friends
    Got complacent in the realm of excitement/energy
    Abandoned your natural/more colorful persona/demeanor/behaviors
    Allowed the relationship to become the motivation for life itself
    Anyone of any gender or "center" may (or may not) express insecurity in their relationships in different ways than you; but the things you note as lacking or losing were symptoms of the larger issue, which was becoming insecure about the relationship. So, the relationship transformed from a "living connection", to an objective status....From something that needs to be nurtured and cared for, to something that needs to be salvaged and maintained.
    As for where our insecurity comes from, why it's there, and how we address it... That's a question we can only answer for ourselves.

He did become very afraid of losing me in the end that, ironically, caused him to lose me.

    Honesty the most relatable video I have seen from you guys so far. My ex and I just broke up, we had been together for 2 years and when I met her I made it clear that I had a goal and I was going to get that goal with or without her. Overtime I let myself get lost more and more in the relationship and eventually she became my number one goal. Marrying her became my number one goal and because of that it meant that I was willing to give up on all of my other goals if it meant that I could focus on the things I thought she wanted and making her happy above all else. I lost that grounded mentality of "this is what I want to do in life and you can tag along if you want or you can not" and it became "I don't want to do anything without you there with me". I am glad that I have seen this video and I really do feel as though I have learned exactly what I did wrong and now I know how to fix myself and grow. Thanks Charlie, your content is so inspiring and I can't wait to watch another one of your videos

    Not sure I'm completely sold on the idea of "masculine" and "feminine" centres. It seems a bit... stereotypical. Can you elaborate on what you mean by this?
    Other than that, I enjoyed this video. It was honest and vulnerable, I can only imagine the courage you must have had to share this. It seems you're also learning how to have healthy relationships, as we all do through experience. I'm sorry for the pain you suffered through, but honestly, by reflecting and reevaluating our past behaviours (which you do very well), we can emerge stronger and happier afterwards.

    I watched a ton of these videos before getting to this one, and this is the first time I've found myself in disagreement. "Masculine core" doesn't really mean anything. To find one's center means to be balanced. You need to fill your life not just with the intense relationship of a romantic partner, but also with the simpler joys of platonic connections with other human beings. It's not about finding time with just the guys, and I've had incredible friendships with women in my life who have fulfilled exactly the role you described as the benefits of male bonding.
    This channel toes the line of being gender and hetero-normative frequently, but this was the first time I felt like that line was really crossed.

      goldenrootsnet can't argue with that. I failed a might-be relationship years ago and I realized that the single reason for failure was simply put that I wasn't truly myself around the person. Be it talking to her and whatnot, I some details of my life because I was afraid she'd think I'm boring. Afterwards I managed to salvage some wisdom from this occurrence and it's my life wisdom actually, that is simply to pursue your true self. Obvious right? Being afraid of other people's opinions made act as if I was someone else and lost myself in the progress. Doing things we love to do and sharing our opinions about the things we are interested in make us attractive to others. And with self-approval make us happy, being what we want to be. And pursuit of happiness is the goal for my life at least.

    I do like the way you analyze this, as in, the process that you went through. But to be honest, it really annoys me that a lot of women keep doing this. Not saying what you actually want or need, wanting a man that somehow miraculously always knows what you want or need based on his ´intuiton´. I think the reflexive side you show as a person in your videos, wether you´d be a guy or a girl, is what makes you desirable as a partner. I always try to enact my ´femaleness´ without making subtle comments to convey an unspoken message, because I noticed that life is so much easier and more fun once you just drop these indirect cues and start communicating with a healthy degree of self reflexivity. Thank you for making this video, but please don´t let this breakup make you think you need to get a better sense of unspoken needs in order to have a healthy relationship, even if a masculine feminine dichotomy is what you like or desire. Note that there are females outside that try to fight the stereotyped responses her gender presupposes to her, and who think that if she is able to succeed in this, men as well as women may have a way more relaxed way of intimate communication.

    I have one suggestion though. I think it's better to refer to losing your "center" than your "masculine center". As a female person I can confirm that it is not just a male problem: it's about the sense of purpose in the world, about the meaning of being and about being in balance. And while there are differences that are specific to male and female people, being in their center is one of the things all humans need to figure out in the messy multi-agent environment called life :)

  • @snakedogman

    A lot of truth in this video. My relationship of 8 years ended recently and I've been racking my brain for weeks on how and where it all went wrong. At first I was stunned, and absolutely devastated. I was a wreck for weeks. We were supposed to be together forever! We bought a house together!
    I think she basically got bored and I don't really blame her. Although we still did fun things together reasonably regularly... I had taken the relationship for granted, and had always really sort of seen it as my ultimate goal and purpose in the first place, and when the goal was attained, I (or we both) didn't really realize that it was supposed to be a work in progress, instead of a work completed. And I didn't really have much besides the relationship in the end. I mean I have a job, friends, interests etc... but I guess not some great ambition or purpose outside of the relationship. I also recognize it when you say you stopped enjoying things you used to enjoy and turned to her/the relationship instead. And right now I just feel anchorless and drifting. I haven't really kept up much with some of my interests of the past. I kind of lost myself in the relationship for sure. My gf also contributed of course to us drifting apart and she made mistakes as well but I can only work on myself and take responsibility for my own actions. I hope I can incorporate the lessons from this in my life in the future.

The only viable choice you have to move on, and by moving on I mean just absolutely stop any communication with dat_girl if it's possible, stop open again and again her social networks and get rid of any reminders of her, because you want to get free of any references that could bring you to sadness and regrets. And then you need to focus on your life, just become better, start to make more money and do things which make you feel happy and alive, which turns you on. Because the sad truth is she rejected the current version of you, you have to face it. Just invest in yourself and became better version of yourself, not sad-same-version-of-you-which-can't-face-rejection-and-tries-to-force-her-to-give-you-attention. And when you make yourself better, your next relationship will be better with her(statistically unlikely, tho) or even without her. But it should be next relationship, not the one already died and which you try to resurrect.

Over time I realised that I should just be true to myself and keep that solid core like you said. Remaining unreactive in stressful times and not pushing it further. Instead focusing on helping them learn how to settle in with people they may not like and not overreacting when things go wrong. Anyway, I think this video really helped me understand this better.

    I think your putting too much emphasis on your short comings, Two people in a relationship and two people are at fault. I think that perhaps your hurting right now and just looking for answers to explain why things went wrong. Realize it isn't your responsibility to molly coddle her feelings, nor is it her responsibility to do so for yours. As we grow and mature our needs change over time. As is often the case with relationships the person we needed before is not the person we need now, But we stick the relationship out because we are taught that to tough things out is better than to make a clean break and start again. Change is scary change is hard but sometimes change is for the best.

We basically hooked up first time, talked for awhile, and then ended up getting together. She was the first person I could actually talk to and be personal with
    Our relationship lasted about 8 months before she broke up with me. Turns out my depression wasn't going away and she didn't want to be around someone like that.
    That's when I learned that being a fun person, having respect for yourself, and making time for other things is important. I stopped going to parties because I would only use them for hookups. Turns out I should have kept going to parties, kept keeping myself happy, and not let my girlfriend and roommates dominate my social life.

When you stop doing things you love and the person becomes the only purpose of your world, it’s so true as you said that it can go south. I’m so sorry for anyone who has gone through that. I like the point mentioned that any relationship needs that masculine/feminine contrast to thrive. I’d like to add that some men are more feminine and some women are more masculine, and knowing that about yourself is important because you need the opposite energy to balance you out...just because someone’s gender is male/female doesn’t always mean they have the right energy to compliment what your core self needs.

    In my humble general TH-cam educated opinion: I saw a TH-cam video I saw that stated it in simple terms.
    Feminine = gatherer characteristics = stereotypically communicating all the details, listening, and taking guidance in trade for protection because as females, more dangers come towards us as the baby makers back in the ice ages. Bigest fear: being abandoned
    Masculine = hunter characteristics = quietly social , needs other male interactions to protect the tribe, big picture minded ( he brought back the moose, he don't care about how he killed it. the fact is that there is food to eat) Bigest fear: being a failure
    Why is this important? Because both do not know how to communicate to each other in the way the other will understand / not take offense.
    Both do not know how to listen to each other because we both are looking out for our way of thinking and not the other person.
    A relationship is the biggest challenge anyone can take. It will make you grow in or out of the experience.

      Boat You can only change yourself, you can't change others. So taking responsibility for what you've done and becoming better is the only way to improve and make things better in the future. It's not a thing of blame it's a thing of taking responsibility, saying this is what I did and didn't do and improving from there.

      Answer to all of you: I never said he should blame her for every thing, how can some of you really think that that's what I meant? But it sounds to me like he thinks he could have saved the relationship which is not a healthy way to think about it. It is however good to improve yourself and admit your faults. If only one person in the relationship is ready to work hard ot maintain it then there are problems...

    I hope you read jiminipple post also because it's on point as to why we never say what we want and leave it up to the guy to make his own decisions. In a way it's sort of like a test. It's sad that it is but it's a way we gauge how you're truly feeling about us are and the level of seriousness you take us.

    I absolutely agree and it took me a lot of years to see this- both in myself, and in others. It's really important to have- and maintain- interests outside of your relationship. It keeps you interesting to your SO, it keeps you grounded...and it gives you a place of refuge if the relationship ends anyway. I see altogether too many people who ditch all their friends and all their interests and wrap themselves completely up in their relationship, and when that relationship inevitably ends, they are absolutely devastated.

    I just lost a relationship of four years because of this exact thing. I've tried so hard to give her everything she asked for the past 6 months. And I thought I'd done everything I should have done.
    I came to this channel looking for enlightenment on my previous relationship, and now I have it. Thank you

    I've experienced basically the same, however I did not realized it. When my gf broke up with me I felt almost betrayed, she told me she was losing herself into the relationship, however I now realize that we both were doing so. We just had to let each other go and let recover their center. Thank you for sharing this, I feel more connected to you and Im sure this will help me a ton

    Sounds to me like you blame yourself for the breakup. No No No!!
    It is also possible that she was not ready to settle down, that she was just a child, that she still wanted to explore life, that she could not see your future together because had no future, because she thought she was a loser.
    Men can get wrapped in women's beauty and forget, there can be a tiny small person behind that pretty face and sexy body. And that person would love you for calling them out and remind them of their shortcomings until they grow up.
    Putting anyone on a pedestal is a recipe for disaster.

    Чарли, спасибо!❤ Как же сильно ты прав 😔 Очень жаль, что я поняла это только спустя 2 года после расставания с моим парнем. Одержимость человеком - это уже не любовь, это извращение. И это чувство трудно назвать здоровым. Мы расстались, и я еще 2 года пыталась все вернуть, и вот сейчас я понимаю, какой же глупой я была( Надо уже возвращаться к жизни. Надеюсь, у меня получится наконец перестать зависеть от этого чувства нужды в человеке и я со временем вновь обрету себя

      EugeneOther Ну, на уровне интуиции (и гугла 😂)
      Я тоже согласна. Мне кажется, что из-за комплексов мы очень часто ищем кого-то, кто бы постоянно хвалил нас, восхищался и так далее. Но когда в отношениях чувства сходят на нет, приходит страх, что мы, наверное, теперь уже недостаточно хороши, который может привести к зависимости в отношениях, если у нас нет другого занятия, в котором мы чего-то достигаем.
      Но вот проблема: как только находишь что-то помимо отношений, подобные комплексы просыпаются в твоём парне, который начинает ко всему ревновать... Как быть?

    I understand you completely. I lost my center as well. It happens. At the time I din't know, and it drove my life out of control when the broke up happen. I realized how different I was at the beginning of the relationship and how I was at the end. The person I dated was the first person I had ever fallen in love for, and the only person I've dated at that point. Our relationship was over the span of three years, but we knew each other since we were 15 (I am 21 years old now, we broke up a year ago). I get how not everything is our fault when it comes to things like this, but moving is really hard and painful when you realize you'd have to give up a percentage of your heart that you gave to that person. Anyways, great video man! And sorry for your loss.

    I think this advice’s can be applied to man and women alike. I loved this video. So centered and grounded to reality. Your relationship will inevitably wilt if it becomes the center of your own person. A relationship is made up of two people, with different goals but the same values; that work toward the improvement of first themselves, and then their partners. Relationships are just a medium to improve as a person, not the "end-all-be-all" of that improvement.
