      once you're used by many machos, you desgust men! a 25yo woman has 10 year of rotation and 25yo is the peak of fertility and estogen for a woman after that it's all going down(it's science). So men just pump and dump!!! If a woman does not give herself to men when she is between 16 and 25 which is the range in time where fertility and beauty is a its peak, from there on then men just pump and dump!!!

    • @miguelma3237
      @miguelma3237 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      Men want the phase in life of a woman where she is before the peak meaning before 25!!!! Why do you give yourselfs to many other man when you are before 25(the phase you are growing in beauty and fertelity)? Why do you do that!!? i have no respect for woman over 25yo whatsoever!!! after 25 there is only 5 sometimes less than 5 year to 30yo. And we all know what happen to a 30yo, everything is sagging! everything is hangging down!! it's sad that many woman give themselfs at their worst physically to a man!!! AND DONT COME TO THE INNER BEAUTY BULLSHIT!! WAKE UP FOR LIFE!

      My ex treated himself extremely well. Spoiled and treated himself to all his needs and wants but.. he was unable to show love to another other than him. I think it's important to make sure that the people we're considering not only treat themselves well but have a compassionate and giving nature to go with that.

      @Golden Girl: you have the right mindset - do not conform to the ways of this world, yo. (I felt the same way, and I did not marry until I was nearly 33. I had 3 beautiful children with my beautiful FOREVER husband; however, after 15 years together (nearly 12 of those married) he was killed in an auto accident.
      I do not regret waiting for the right man - just wish I’d had more time. When we said “till death do us part,” WE MEANT IT.
      It’s 3 & 1/2 years since we lost him, and I am STILL in need of more “healing”
      I think, because I loved him so deeply, it’s just VERY HARD to navigate through life without him - I still feel broken... (suppose that’s why I’ve attracted “broken” since then.)
      Anywayyyy... the point I originally meant to convey is this: marriage is 100% successful when you do it the way God planned it... Love and Respect. Men need respect like women need love - and we both (men and women) need it like we need OXYGEN!!
      Seek God first, and everything else you need will follow!! (Oh, to be 23 again... lol)

      actually quite the opposite.. People need to stay far away from religion and their relationship.

I've been married for 10 years in a happy successful marriage and one I was looking for a spouse i found ladies who weren't religious had better logic/reasoning skills..

      At least thats how i feel sometimes. I had some hookups quite a few times and i just realized that i actually dont really like that, or at least it gives me nothing. The reason why i still did that was more, because of me wanting to get her to the point to have Sex. To know that i scoed or archieved. The result was not really fulfilling.

      Instant connection is real. I've experienced it. Only once romantically. However, it doesn't mean jump into anything. Still, get to know each other. Let the connection grow. But that draw towards each other Stephan talks about and that instant connection you speak of is what I have with someone. People settle and don't believe in instant connection and maybe that's apart of the problem. Wait until you get it. Not saying don't give anyone the time of day but pay attention. Once you have that instant connection the draw towards each other will follow.

I'd rather be single then be apart of something that I really don't want to be in. I see it all the time and it's sad. It's crazy how people jump from one partner to the next...it seems that people are super desperate to belong to something...guess what?? You are already apart of something special.

    He made some very great points regarding abstinence and chivalry. My ex-boyfriends were always chivalrous to me as well as all of my male friends, therefore I look for a man with those mannerisms. When single I choose to be celibate and I tell that up front and it has helped tremendously in the past when single for a year and a half because it helped weed out the men with the bad intentions real quick. I'm back on that same path until I meet the right one that actually will court me for a couple months and not press me to be physical. That guy I have a strong connection with is still my friend and since I moved we can't see each other like that and he doesn't want a relationship right now, so I am moving on and starting a new beginning in my new location. This video really helped. Thanks, guys! :)

I stayed so long for fear of being a single mom, being labeled a failure and that I was not enough and somehow deserved to be abused and cheated on. The crazy part is as long as I only loved him, catered to him and neglected myself, we were fine. The moment I started loving me, working out, went back to school he became jealous and figured he could beat it out of me. Leaving him was the best thing I could have done for myself and my children.

I do believe we all have to take risks, but after multiple risks with no reward, it’s time to find another path. Him and I had lived together and he couldn’t even provide food/toiletries, had things in collections, didn’t pay bills on time, didn’t budget, and didn’t save but put money into a dream and mention it later as if it’s not a big deal.

    The whole not being able to trust a man who talks a good one but doesn’t get anything accomplished. Omg that just kills me. I had to break-up with someone recently after a couple of months because I just couldn’t trust him. I felt like he really didn’t ever do what he said.

    The part about intuition hit home. I wrote something in my journal previous to marriage regarding my husband and after separation I found that old journal and everything negative thing I expressed in it came to pass throughout my marriage. I knew he wasnt the one in the beginning but I tried to make him the one because I was afraid to be alone. It's going on 2 years of me being single. I've learned to stand on my own and truly evaluate and discard those that don't qualify as a completion to my life without fear.

    I am ecstatic that I found this podcast! Hearing the vital information Stephan has shared is encouraging and serves as personal confirmation. I am currently on my healing journey after letting go of a five year toxic relationship four months ago. Three days after the breakup I went on a 4 day vegan cleanse to detox my mind and body and gained so much clarity, new found perception, and heightened spiritual connection that I decided to commit to a vegan lifestyle. Daily prayer, practicing yoga, focusing on self care and attending therapy has played a significant role in my healing process. My brother just completed a 3 day dry fast and a 4 day water fast and encouraged me to try it. I have observed in every instance that when I sacrifice my flesh of its desires, my spiritual connection with God becomes stronger, I have more discipline, my life immediately flows into balance and I make substantial gains towards my own personal growth. After seeing this I am definitely willing to commit to a water fast (maybe not for seven days though 😄). This was a great show. Stephan, thank you for sharing your expertise and wisdom. Please keep allowing God to use you to help others heal, grow, and discover true purpose. You are a blessing and inspire so many! Thank you 🙏🏾 😊

    As a Swedish woman I find this talk very interesting! Our culture is so different where the traditional roles really are part of the past. There are very few women here who expect the man to pay, or be the one who makes money, and very few men who expect women to do all the work at home. Sometimes I think it's harder for people here, since it's so much about equality, that no one knows what to do anymore. At the same time, do we have to have roles? With having roles comes many shoulds, musts and it's supposed tos. Can't it be more open for people to find their own roles in a relationship? Some men are more feminine, and some women more masculine. It's hard for everyone to follow a certain mold, as we're all different. I think completing each other is the most important thing! What are your thoughts about that, traditional or non traditional relationships?

      If you both work, then you must share house work. Here in Portugal it's more traditional, as a man I used to pay most of the dates, though my now wife would often do it to. We have joint accounts now, so it doesn't matter who pays, but for social convention I'm the one that asks for the check and pay. In the house I do all the cooking cause I enjoy it and am better at it. She does most of the cleaning, though I'll help too.

      I believe in a man's traditional role. Men should be masculine, build their physical strength (which keeps them healthy), do what it takes to be competitive in the market place and bring even more resources home. At the same time they have build the discipline to commit to one woman and have some domestic skills. The role of women has evolved drastically over the past 70 years and I see that as a positive thing. However, the feminisation of men is very negative thing for any culture or society. I think if a man is truly masculine any woman he couples up with will likely choose to contribute to their relationship through her feminine energy. The good thing is that in our society a woman can choose.

    The healing part really resonated with me. I was hurt by a very toxic relationship with a narcissist and during the off times I tried to date multiple and different people. But kept coming back to him. Until God spoke to me and told me to allow him to heal me and I stoped trying to feel better by casual dating and stayed completely single. And allowed God to heal all my past wounds since childhood. It’s been over eight months of me purposely opening to God, allowing him to do his work, and also reading and listening to good motivational speakers and experts in different self help subjects. I feel so much better and I have a new perspective in live, I love myself more fully, and God has become the center and foundation of my life. And I know without a doubt that just as he wants to bless me with my life partner he wants me to be a blessing for him. So God has prepared us both while we waited and it will be phenomenal when God reunite us. God bless you Stephan may the Holy Spirit continue to fill you with wisdom, love and strength to do what God has called you to do. 🙏🏻🙏🏻

    I have listened for almost an hour and I agree with almost everything Stephan has said. I started following Stephan when I was still a Christian. I no longer follow religion but I'm a very spiritual person. I finally met my twin flame last year and our relationship has been rocky. Most people, especially religious people, know nothing about twin flame relationships. The connection he's describing sounds a lot like the twin flame relationship. It's very overwhelming and a little scary when you can communicate telepathically, and for me(an empath) actually feel what your twin is feeling. The connection is very strong and goes beyond physical chemistry.
