Pure serendipity finding this video on a Friday... being in a new city with no friends or family is challenging and lonely... and when the waves arise, most of the time, I escape or numb. Seeing you cry, pray, and take it on the pillow hit me hard. I need to do that. Thanks for sharing this and not giving us the happily ever after of fairy tales.
@benny_ngch yes, I have!!! I put myself out there and showed up for yoga, salsa, and hip hop classes... made 1 friend, and that friend connected me with many more. This place that felt so strange 6 months ago now feels like home. Thanks for checking in 💕
I never really comment on videos, but thank you for making this video, truly. I thought finding someone I could rely on would help me feel like I belong in this world. You made me realize I need to love myself before I can love somebody else.
What a beautiful ending. The misdirection from revealing your girlfriend to playing a duet with yourself instead, then the montage reminiscing your past self by playing back the clips from earlier in the video, and the little turn of your head to yourself as you finished off playing the song. What a great way to hold our attention and round out the video. Beautiful job :)
Honestly, with your level of self awareness, your easy going personality (as far as I can tell), your desire to grow as a person, your insights and your sense of humor, I can tell you, as a woman who has high expectation when it’s come to men, that you are above average and I can’t imagine you would have a problem with finding a good woman, truly.
can't believe she actually had the nerve to describe him as "above average", almost as if making him a favour. specially after pointing out great things about him. Women nowadays are completely delusional! What the hell do they expect to find for a partner?
You don't need to fight against every statement or mind people speak out here. If it doesn't fit in your world, just skip it and its done. Stop looking for the wrong in other people if it doesn''t fullfill your view and expectations, even if its "100%" wrong in your and many guys. Find a human that fits into your favourite mind, compass and character@@rerikm
I have never met a man that self reflected the way you are doing it. You are such a precious person. As one of the men said in your interviews, at the right time the chosen one for you will appear. I‘ve reflected a lot over the last 7 years. I learned so much about me. And it‘s an ongoing process. Finally I found peace within myself and the ability to love myself.
Eric is incredibly talented. He plays piano, violin and guitar and I am sure more. Great cinematography and perfect editing. Also, very charming voice and singing.
As someone who guides people in their awakening, everything about this video is so beautiful. You touch on so much truth and deliver it in a digestible, relatable way. Love it 🥰
My mother left when I was 6 months. I lacked self love and many other traits. I was blessed to meet her when I was 39 year. Thanksgiving 2022. I was aware of my own issues and saw hers. I thought if she loved me I would be whole. I still felt empty. I learned that I must find love for myself. Everything comes from within. Looking outside brings a lot of grief. We don't control others. Master oneself to be whole. Every day is a battle. Mentally, physically, and spiritually.
The best way to meet someone special is within your immediate culture, circle of friends, family, relatives and acquaintances. Join clubs, volunteer groups or faith based organizations. Meeting others with common interests is an indirect way to find someone. My best advice is don't try so hard, just let it happen. Listen to the Jamaican guy sitting in the Park bench, the man really knows what he is talking about.
you have an incredible story telling talent. you editing is brilliant. this video made me think of how the Lord works in a person's heart to find their meaning and purpose in Christ and not in a woman. God bless you
This is so wholesome! Thank you for touching us with your story, with their stories, so much wisdom to them they made me cry. And I love how you present an all male perspective, as I've never seen it anywhere before. Great work.
Hi Eric, youtube randomly suggested this video. So glad, it came on my feed! God is trying to speak to me through you. I totally relate to all you said because I’m a young 27 year old single woman trying to navigate through adulthood and love-life. But, it only appears that I need to build a better relationship with myself and stop chasing love. But, on the other side, I hope you’re doing well! I hope you’re continuing to work on yourself and you doing a 100 times better than what I’ve watched on the video which is from a year ago. Also, boy you’re incredibly talented! Loved the mini-documentary on your love life. It’s was simple, wholesome and beautifully conveyed. No jazz or no bullshit. You’re very artistic and talented. Keep up the amazing work👏🏻 Continue doing the good work you’re already doing. Big love
I think it would be more comforting if Woman and Men got surrounded by people with exactly their same situation. Age growing, difficulty to navigate although you might be a very kind, easy and fullfilling person (ofcourse with advantages and disadvantages because no one can be perfect). The part in the video where he said "finding peace with your single life" is very important. We are all ment to find a partner someday, but we are scared that this won't happen, even if we tryhard outside. Out of 7 billion people, there must be someone somewhere :) For me it was important to gain experience from the other gender, wether is is hanging out, conversations, hobbies, entertainment, worldview or sex. If you all get that a little bit, it is soooo much easier. Well, for me it was, speaking only for me. But after a certain age, time and past experience, you get more and more to the point where you know what you exactly want. You just have to fight constantly the surrounding of you. Friends who get into relationships. who marries or even breaks up. You really don't need confirmation from outside if you are already happy with yourself. And you don't have to lie to yourself, just be really open to others and to yourself
You are an amazing editor! I loved the b roll, the narration, and the special effects in this video so so much. The message is the most powerful, and universal though. I hope you find a girl that loves and appreciates you as much as you deserve!! God bless!!
I saw your video of the pensioner Brit, married to an American. This is a great video. Basically we need people in order to really find ourselves. It's through interaction and relating to anybody and everybody that we finally bounce, bump, walk or run into the companionship, where harmony and peace prevail. No need to speak, just be. Too much time alone can leave us completely self serving! Is this good or bad? You decide! In Eric's case, deep down he already realises this: hence a quest for the shared highs, lows and joys! He's such a nice guy I can't see why it wouldn't happen! ❤
Thank you for your vulnerability and work to put this out here. I agree with you 100% and did the work you talk about. I’ve been happily married for decades because I keep doing the work.
First time watching this channel. I admire your vulnerability to share your growth with the world. I am newly divorced after a 15 year marriage and I wish I had taken the time to get to REALLY know myself before falling for the societal trap of marriage. Nobody tells you the ugly side of marriage: Divorce. which is a money making machine fro family courts and attorneys. Props to you for living your life in such a poetic way .
Absolutely one of the best things I’ve ever watched. So beautiful and so important. And such an encouragement to me on my own journey. Thank you thank you thank you. May God continue to richly bless you. You’ve def raised the bar!!
Man! Your video is pure cinema!! I'm really thankful to you to show your history. I'm 27 and still single. Your history was very insightful and healing for me.
Just subscribed and am enjoying watching you videos which I am finding cathartic because I am an open minded friendly American who lives in Switzerland where mots people are neither spontaneous nor particularly friendly. I think that connecting with people everyday including strangers in a meaningful or casual but respectful manner fundamentally changes the quality of life. Not being able to do this reminds me of the scene from Space Odyssey when Dave travels into open space in the pod to retrieve the body of his fellow space traveller and then returns to the mother ship with him in the pod's arms and is refused entry. Thank you very much for your thoughtful and thought provoking videos.
Thanks for sharing your story Eric! The narrative resonated with me alot. I numbed myself in work after my divorce and didnt get a chance to process the emotions until recently. It is so freeing to feel and be ok with the feelings. Thank you for your videos and keep going! 🙏
I randomly discovered you on TikTok and this is the first video of yours I've seen. Really well done. You've captured the essence of healthy dating and self development. As a single guy around your age in NYC, I can relate to a lot of this
I literally stumbled upon the same thought this week, so it was refreshing to hear it again... 'Pretend like you already know them' I made a note of this and it has helped hugely. Especially when you often don't know what that first line of conversation should be.
I loved this video. It's real, honest, and vulnerable in a way that feels genuine. Heartfelt video that is funny and not too self-serious. From a fellow small time TH-cam creator in NYC (restarting shortly) kudos!
I subscribed to your channel today and watched one interview after another, then this video. It’s wonderful. The ending, with a song I love by the way, is the whole message, summed up. The Work becomes a way of life - a practice. Bless your journey and I’m filled with gratitude for the reminder of my own.
I think a lot of people fail to understand that when you dial it all back, dating is how you find out what you want and what you don’t want in a relationship. And a lot of the time if you’re not already okay with yourself and who you are it just makes the whole process even harder. But dating is the best way to learn relationships in real time and it presents you with situations and new discoveries of things you would often never even dream about when it comes to relationships. So while it can be extremely exhausting, like all things there is so much to be learned from the process. And when you’re able to look at it from that perspective it might not feel so much like a chore.❤
At 3:30. The rejection part is the most difficult part of cold contact dating like this. You have to get used to various reasons why you won't make a connection with a woman. If I told a person they would get rejected 41 times by women and on number 42 would meat the love of their life and future spouse, would they go through all that rejection? Most likely, but then again we don't know who that woman we approach is or if she will accept you. I would stay off dating apps of possible because that does a real head number on you. The rejection level is very high with little success. Live is the way to go.
Damn. Life seems to be hard at times, harder than we might realise at first glance. But from time to time we might be given a clear enough sign for us to notice, just what it is that we can do about it. This video seems to be that sign for me. I've watched it before, just didn't seem to have clicked at that time. Thank you Eric for this very well made message and good luck to anyone who reads this.
Thank you for sharing your story. Vulnerable, honestly, meditate his words ,crying and praying pleases God and draw you closer to him. This is very heartwarming and creative video. You are talented and gifted !
This was such a well done video! Thank you for being open and vulnerable about your journey. It's a great reminder that the most important relationship is the one we have with ourselves ❤
Ita crazy, i wasnt going to watch the whole 14 minutes or whatever, I knew how it was going to end but still i watched. This video was very well put together. And there's some great lessons to be had here.
Can relate to 99% of this video. I am happy that I am able to learn and explore the world realizing that being a human is a gift. And there is so much joy when you see and feel people that are on the same journey with you ❤ Thank you
Self love isn't a replacement for romantic love. They feel completely different. You can love yourself and be comfortable with yourself all you want. But it feels completely different when someone wants to hug you, kiss you, be intimate with you, listen to you, talk to you and share life experiences with you.
Have been following you for a while in IG. Stumbled upon this TH-cam video via your IG story. I am so glad that I came across this video. God bless you Eric!🕊
I've just watched story of my life with a fantastic main actor. Thanks for all the effort you made to create this video! Fantastic. One day I'll make something similar in Russian
The problem is that people want relationships to complete themselves. You complete yourself by making peace with yourself, not relying on others to do it for you. Just love and accept yourself for now and that’s it.
he's intelligent, funny, creative, passionate, financially stable (apparently), not short, not ugly, has confidence and he's well spoken. he can sing, plays guitar and violin... But he's struggling to find a suitable girlfriend in NY. we're doomed guys!
Crazy how low the view count is, consider who amazing the storytelling, footage and editing is! Keep up the good work, the time will come when the algorithm will grace you ;)
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I'm 57, I havent dated in almost 10 yrs and live a celibate lifestyle. I thought I had to always be in a relationship. Then I got tired of the games, lies, pain , just all of it. It has been somewhat lonely at time but Ive decided to never date again, I'm happy. I finally got to know the most important person in my life, ME! Ihope youve met your girlfriend. 🙂
I came here after seeing you interview with Ruslan KD! I am in the same place as you were when you made this video. Single, focusing on my relationship with God and His plans for me, and my children. These are the happiest days of my life! I am so thankful for such a wonderful and loving savior. He is so faithful!
I'm a guy but I can tell that it helps to find a date when you are tall and good looking such as yourself. I'm only 5'6, so glad I'm not in the dating market. However, what you are doing is nothing short of legend status. Much respect 🙏
I know it sounds cliche but they really come when you stop looking. I'm an asian guy living in Germany and I dated for a few years which was just exhausting. It had its ups and downs but so I stopped. I guess when I stopped looking, my energy, my vibes changed and that's what attracted the right woman for me. I'm now happily married with a lovely daughter. On hindsight, I guess if one is trying hard, then that person emits a different vibe which in turn attracts the wrong person. Stop chasing gents and work on yourselves!
At first i saw your short video on TH-cam and then i saw this video. Your content is really good. Its more than entertainment, has a deep meaning .Every video make me understand more about the life. Good work keep going 👍
I've come across a no. Of these types of channels, yours resonate with me, i love it, I'm thankful today's world and the internet allow such jobs and chanels to exist such that we can assess it too, however far from where these things happen, love from Ghana xx
I agree ❤, this is a masterpiece created at the right time, at the right place. You are a masterpiece walking the path of self-love. Thank you for reminding me of my path ❤. I am so grateful for you ❤
I love this! Truly everything about it. I’m on a similar journey of self and God. Thank you for your vulnerability. So beautiful. The end is Especially spectacular
Amazing talks ... indeed, God knows what you need and He give it in His perfect time. If you are in the season of waiting He knows that relationship is not what you need in that season so instead of looking make yourself available of doing what makes you a better or best person for your future relationship.
learn to love yourself because how can you love others when you don't even love yourself or how can you expect others to like you when even you don't like you. You can't love others effectively when you don't have love in your heart already. That's one thing this video reminds me of.
Watched the entire thing without looking at the view count, subs, etc. I genuinely thought I was watching a multi-million subscriber, high-quality production video with millions of views. I was stunned after I checked, only to see 12k views. I'm in a weird state where I almost have anything I want in life that I want, but not a girlfriend. I only had one relationship, and it was a super toxic and abusive one that has mentally damaged me. I never went to a therapist or anything about it, and even though I have a job, health, family, hobbies that I'm really passionate about, skills that I wanted and I acquired... I just feel empty. I feel like even when I was in that abusive relationship, everything was kind of OK because I had her. Looking back, I realize that's why I put up with all that toxicity because I knew that I would feel empty without a relationship. So I was thinking of moving to NYC to start a new life and to potentially find love there, which is why I searched up and found this video. I definitely think I need to give it another watch to fully grasp what has been mentioned here and what exactly "the work" is. What I have grasped so far is that accept the pain, cry, do whatever but don't try to tuck the pain away. Experience it. We'll see how it goes.
Glad you found my video. Yes, that's the TLDR. It's OK to feel a little bit like something is missing without a companion, that's natural. If it starts getting painful or heavy it may be an indicator that something else is awry.
I came here from ShartyMarty
Same. What a letdown.
TOO!
She's fun and feet on Earth. I'm in love 😍
Lmao so did I
Same
Pure serendipity finding this video on a Friday... being in a new city with no friends or family is challenging and lonely... and when the waves arise, most of the time, I escape or numb. Seeing you cry, pray, and take it on the pillow hit me hard. I need to do that. Thanks for sharing this and not giving us the happily ever after of fairy tales.
Hope you’ve found your groove in the new city after 6 month, stranger! You’ve got this.
@benny_ngch yes, I have!!! I put myself out there and showed up for yoga, salsa, and hip hop classes... made 1 friend, and that friend connected me with many more. This place that felt so strange 6 months ago now feels like home. Thanks for checking in 💕
Came expecting to see a girl. Instead I stared at myself, realizing, I needed to do the work! Thanks!
I never really comment on videos, but thank you for making this video, truly. I thought finding someone I could rely on would help me feel like I belong in this world. You made me realize I need to love myself before I can love somebody else.
This video is a masterpiece. Editing, cinematography, music at the end, vibe, message, everything clicks together. Thanks for your work man
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it appreciate the thoughtful comments
Can’t agree more! Beautifully done! Eric 👍👍👍
That's exactly what I was thinking!!
What a beautiful ending. The misdirection from revealing your girlfriend to playing a duet with yourself instead, then the montage reminiscing your past self by playing back the clips from earlier in the video, and the little turn of your head to yourself as you finished off playing the song.

that fact that you said he has all that and still just said hes "above average" lol
What does "high expectation even mean"
its weird that men constantly have to chase and feel like theyre enough for women
Unfortunately 99.99% of women just want $$$$$ or status in a partner.
can't believe she actually had the nerve to describe him as "above average", almost as if making him a favour. specially after pointing out great things about him.
Women nowadays are completely delusional!
What the hell do they expect to find for a partner?
You don't need to fight against every statement or mind people speak out here. If it doesn't fit in your world, just skip it and its done.

Watching now in 2024.
Love this guy.
God bless you.
Absolutely one of the best things I’ve ever watched. So beautiful and so important. And such an encouragement to me on my own journey. Thank you thank you thank you. May God continue to richly bless you. You’ve def raised the bar!!
Impressive!!! Thanks for the quality of the content and the production.
Man! Your video is pure cinema!! I'm really thankful to you to show your history. I'm 27 and still single. Your history was very insightful and healing for me.

"Suddenly, there were no more women on the street" haaaahaaha this made me crack up tho.
Lol true😀
I think a lot of people fail to understand that when you dial it all back, dating is how you find out what you want and what you don’t want in a relationship. And a lot of the time if you’re not already okay with yourself and who you are it just makes the whole process even harder.

GREAT VIDEO!! ♥️♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽 I needed this DESPERATELY!! I, too, am struggling with that LOVE OF MY LIFE…and it all starts WITHIN first!! ♥️♥️🙏🏽🙏🏽♥️♥️
Damn. Life seems to be hard at times, harder than we might realise at first glance. But from time to time we might be given a clear enough sign for us to notice, just what it is that we can do about it. This video seems to be that sign for me. I've watched it before, just didn't seem to have clicked at that time.
Thank you Eric for this very well made message and good luck to anyone who reads this.
Not another clickbait. Dude, I'd just subscribed to your channel!
Thank you for sharing your story. Vulnerable, honestly, meditate his words ,crying and praying pleases God and draw you closer to him. This is very heartwarming and creative video. You are talented and gifted !
You're a good man, I'm glad you made this and that I watched it. I've learned a lot in this video, thank you and God bless you.
This was such a well done video! Thank you for being open and vulnerable about your journey. It's a great reminder that the most important relationship is the one we have with ourselves ❤
This is one of the BEST videos I have watched on TH-cam! I'm watching it for the second time now :)

Self love isn't a replacement for romantic love. They feel completely different. You can love yourself and be comfortable with yourself all you want. But it feels completely different when someone wants to hug you, kiss you, be intimate with you, listen to you, talk to you and share life experiences with you.
Have been following you for a while in IG. Stumbled upon this TH-cam video via your IG story. I am so glad that I came across this video. God bless you Eric!🕊
I've just watched story of my life with a fantastic main actor. Thanks for all the effort you made to create this video! Fantastic. One day I'll make something similar in Russian
This was incredibly genius! Glad you found love.
What an awesome & reflective video! Great editing & questions. God bless you & may the right woman come in your life at God’s timing
The problem is that people want relationships to complete themselves. You complete yourself by making peace with yourself, not relying on others to do it for you. Just love and accept yourself for now and that’s it.
Your channel deserves way more subscribers
he's intelligent, funny, creative, passionate, financially stable (apparently), not short, not ugly, has confidence and he's well spoken. he can sing, plays guitar and violin...
But he's struggling to find a suitable girlfriend in NY.
we're doomed guys!
This was medicine. Thanks for sharing. 🙏🏼
Masterpiece, what a video, better than a movie, ending is superb
Violin 🎻! 😍🫶🏼❤️Ohhhh youre soo good too!! (Classically trained piano here 🎹) ❤️
I just discovered your channel. Your videos make me smile.
Thank you for sharing your positivity. 😊😊
Crazy how low the view count is, consider who amazing the storytelling, footage and editing is! Keep up the good work, the time will come when the algorithm will grace you ;)
Indeed. Eric deserves millions.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I'm 57, I havent dated in almost 10 yrs and live a celibate lifestyle. I thought I had to always be in a relationship. Then I got tired of the games, lies, pain , just all of it. It has been somewhat lonely at time but Ive decided to never date again, I'm happy. I finally got to know the most important person in my life, ME! Ihope youve met your girlfriend. 🙂
Thank you so much for this video. It is truly the very best one that I've ever seen since I've been on TH-cam bro. Love it
I came here after seeing you interview with Ruslan KD! I am in the same place as you were when you made this video. Single, focusing on my relationship with God and His plans for me, and my children.
These are the happiest days of my life! I am so thankful for such a wonderful and loving savior. He is so faithful!
I'm a guy but I can tell that it helps to find a date when you are tall and good looking such as yourself. I'm only 5'6, so glad I'm not in the dating market. However, what you are doing is nothing short of legend status. Much respect 🙏
I know it sounds cliche but they really come when you stop looking. I'm an asian guy living in Germany and I dated for a few years which was just exhausting. It had its ups and downs but so I stopped. I guess when I stopped looking, my energy, my vibes changed and that's what attracted the right woman for me. I'm now happily married with a lovely daughter. On hindsight, I guess if one is trying hard, then that person emits a different vibe which in turn attracts the wrong person. Stop chasing gents and work on yourselves!
Wish I knew his back story. Not just where he moved from. So impressive with his story telling.
Wish we had a mega-like for this video. So moving
At first i saw your short video on TH-cam and then i saw this video. Your content is really good. Its more than entertainment, has a deep meaning .Every video make me understand more about the life. Good work keep going 👍
Awesome video, reminder to get back to the "Source" of everything. Food for souls.
I love that you moved from SF TO NY!! Courage!
"More often than not though, it's less about trying to fix anything and more about riding the wave." Agree whole heartedly. 💯
This is freaking fantastic ❤ well done!
I've come across a no. Of these types of channels, yours resonate with me, i love it, I'm thankful today's world and the internet allow such jobs and chanels to exist such that we can assess it too, however far from where these things happen, love from Ghana xx
Just followed your channel. This is entertaining and making me smile.
Thanks for this video. I saved it in my "wise advice" playlist.
The brother is correct about dating. When you don't look, you find.
I agree ❤, this is a masterpiece created at the right time, at the right place. You are a masterpiece walking the path of self-love. Thank you for reminding me of my path ❤. I am so grateful for you ❤
Good video! Thank you for sharing your story!
I watch your video from Toronto !
New York is a legend city 😁👍🏽
Thank you for this reminder !!❤🙏🏿
Eric, this video is so lovely & timely! Just what I needed :’)
Kudos to all the work you did for your inner peace!🙂Also, great singing!😊
I love this! Truly everything about it. I’m on a similar journey of self and God. Thank you for your vulnerability. So beautiful. The end is Especially spectacular
Thank you for this video. It gave me hope that there are beautiful souls out there in this city 💕
You are so welcome
Favorite TH-camr rn, much love🫶
Came here from Sharty Marty and got inspired by this video. I saw my “last year self” portrayed in this video ❤️
Amazing talks ... indeed, God knows what you need and He give it in His perfect time. If you are in the season of waiting He knows that relationship is not what you need in that season so instead of looking make yourself available of doing what makes you a better or best person for your future relationship.
learn to love yourself because how can you love others when you don't even love yourself or how can you expect others to like you when even you don't like you. You can't love others effectively when you don't have love in your heart already. That's one thing this video reminds me of.
i really enjoyed that video man, well done. Loved the messaged you shared.
its like a manhattan short... excellent work!
Sitting on the stairs with a smoke... classic. Like a House of Cards scene :)
Love the journey💜Thank you for posting💜
Great work Eric! Both inner work and with the video. Keep it up, it's inspiring ❤
Watched the entire thing without looking at the view count, subs, etc. I genuinely thought I was watching a multi-million subscriber, high-quality production video with millions of views. I was stunned after I checked, only to see 12k views.
I'm in a weird state where I almost have anything I want in life that I want, but not a girlfriend. I only had one relationship, and it was a super toxic and abusive one that has mentally damaged me. I never went to a therapist or anything about it, and even though I have a job, health, family, hobbies that I'm really passionate about, skills that I wanted and I acquired... I just feel empty.
I feel like even when I was in that abusive relationship, everything was kind of OK because I had her. Looking back, I realize that's why I put up with all that toxicity because I knew that I would feel empty without a relationship.
So I was thinking of moving to NYC to start a new life and to potentially find love there, which is why I searched up and found this video. I definitely think I need to give it another watch to fully grasp what has been mentioned here and what exactly "the work" is.
What I have grasped so far is that accept the pain, cry, do whatever but don't try to tuck the pain away. Experience it.
We'll see how it goes.
Glad you found my video. Yes, that's the TLDR. It's OK to feel a little bit like something is missing without a companion, that's natural. If it starts getting painful or heavy it may be an indicator that something else is awry.
I saw your video featured in Captain Sinbad's video. This video is great. the only issue is the audio.
Audio could def be better. Thanks for the feedback!
Nice video.
It's sad how many people are just being told to take medication to deal with negative emotions instead of addressing the source of them.
You and your twin are wonderful, what a video, wisdom and humor too💞
What a surprising ending. I hope you keep on getting to know Jesus more and esteem Him above all else. Beautiful "duet".
I love this episode eric.
Bro you just made everyone getting stronger
