    We could all fix relationships. We could all have happier, healthier, wonderful relationships where we have a reliable source of love and affection while we also work on ourselves. Imagine what we could achieve if we stopped chasing the ones that broke us.

      Hey Rory, I’m interested in coaching. I’m just wondering if it would be beneficial. My ex left me 7 months ago and got into another relationship a few months after she left. I don’t think I will get her back, I want to, but I don’t see it happening. Still I’m so lost and I keep relapsing over the breakup. I could use some advice and insight on the situation.

    Some times we cant fix someone, the best we can do is show them wat they did wrong and hope they can fix it them selfs. Sometimes u can love someone who has broken u r trust but love doesnt mean u should be with them.

    I guess its like the rush of having someone to chase, a lot of people think of this as adding "spice" to relationships or life in general. People with that secure, clear, and stable style of loving are seen as boring and unexciting. I feel like Im one of those secure, clear types. I just don't understand why in love we have to play mind games or try to confuse our partner.

    • @dmoneydance
      @dmoneydance 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I’m the same clear & stable. (Boring) I’ve always been that way. Instead of drama and games I focus on building for retirement and traveling with friends. I recently decided not to chase because that means someone is running from me.

    Lots of valuable insight here man, I think it applies a lot to my previous relationship too. I've taken my personal growth seriously, but my ex I don't believe has. I don't keep tabs, but from what I can sense it's very similar to this. People want excitement or distraction from themselves, which really is sad. I agree wholeheartedly with you though, I definitely would have a boring secure relationship, because it would enable me to be my best. How sad it truly is that most relationships are fixable but most already have one foot out the door. Not everything is meant to last, but I feel that everyone is so eager to jump ship and move on to someone else in the hopes that it works out, without putting any thought or effort into themselves. I think that's a bullshit copout. Like many have said, the grass isn't greener on the other side, it's greener where you water it, for yourself and for others.

      Beautifully said. I agree with your statement. Your entire statement. I believe my ex is the same as your ex. I know for a fact from many friends that she is all over the place. It doesn't bother me. I know that I did my best and in the end it's up to her to change, but I doubt that'll happen. In the mean time I have new people in my life and feel like a new person

    • @GreatKingBenis
      @GreatKingBenis 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@erycktackitt6771 For sure, I wanted to fix things. I was committed to the bitter end. I can at least have that off my conscience.
      But looks like we didn't have a choice, we had to move on, and I know in my case it absolutely was for the best. On to bigger and better things my friend.

    This is me. I ended a secure relationship after 13 years because it became boring, and have been choosing unstable (avoidant) partners ever since. It always ends in tears. The last one ended a week ago.
    Six months ago, I was dating two girls: one appeared quite secure, the other was a fearful avoidant. Guess who I chose. I chose the challenge, the rollercoaster ride. I had to work really hard to keep her interested, to get her to commit, and in the end she still pulled away, lost interest, triggered my anxiety and then dumped me because of my clingy reaction.
    It always ends in tears. But I can't seem to help myself from being drawn to the difficult ones. Nice to know it isn't just me. Avoidants must get a lot of action, lol :)

    Hey, Rory. We had a coaching call about a month and a half ago or so I believe. My ex broke up with me after almost 4 years and 8 months. We had planned a trip to Disney before Covid and I was going to propose to her there. I even bought a ring about 2 years ago. I work out and run just about everyday. I’m cleaning my diet up and I’m going back to school this fall. I still do love her and miss her but I must try to move on and keep bettering myself. Most of the cause of the breakup was my fault. I’m learning from my mistakes. I plan on finishing out an undergraduate degree in about 2 years then completing a master’s degree. I used to be lazy with no drive. Now I’m one of the hardest working people that I know. I know this should be about me first but I want to prove her wrong and all of her friends that hated me.

  • @tectons8371
    @tectons8371 4 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I find it so disturbing to dump a quality loving and attractive person because he/she doesn't cause you anxiety....it feels like your life is so empty cant feel joy or positive emotion through hobbies or achievements so you try to live through negative emotions.

  • @charliemvrphy
    @charliemvrphy 4 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Amazing message, Rory. I’ve come to the realization that the chances of my ex taking this time to better herself are slim. These past 9 months have been life changing for me. I’ve grown a lot and we could even argue I’ve outgrown my ex in some degree. I still love and miss her and wish the situation was different but I’m very thankful I was able to truly find myself as a result of this break up. I don’t need my ex, I need myself and the fact that I have myself is magnificent! I’ve never been happier with my life and I’m excited for the next chapter. I love you all. It gets easier! I promise.

    I'm looking for someone who is really mature and not looking for a mother. Every thing you said is right. Except I didn't do the chasing. Maybe I should have but I figure if he wants me he knows what he was getting. He chose to leave. And I really don't think he gave a crap from the get go. Great listening to this reading. Did make a lot of sense. Take care. Hugsx

  • @gatheryerosebuds9
    @gatheryerosebuds9 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Aaaaanndd...you are still chasing that 'if I could just get one person who treats me like crap, cheats, lies, dumps but reels me back in, rinse, repeat" to be consistent and loving then we could, in a sense, win. Moreover, sometimes finally resolve the horrible pain of childhood.
    I'm finally there. With the boring guy. And you know what? He's not so boring.
    Addendum: As we roll along Google will throw up a happy-ish memory from those days. And then the very next picture will be from a time I was alone again, hurting and trying to make myself feel better. Compare to today where each picture is not, day in and out. We really can fix things. Thanks for doing what you do, sir. :)

    "Your heart is an idiot", "You're being actively manipulated" That point you made is so true, sometimes, if we are like that, we'll acept or be in denial of every action that the insecure person does, even if it's hurting us.
    I often listen to you on Spotify, but I wanted to say thank you. I'm going trough a breakup of a long time relationship and your talks are helping me SO much. I'm understanding a lot of myself and of him, and it helps me to sleep better at night and feel more calm at day.
    Keep it up, you are great and believe that you are helping a lot of people. God bless you

    I just got out of a situation of 4 years with someone. It’s so true what the video says. For me, it was an absolute thrill to get affection from this person. Because he was always reserved in his feelings and wasn’t direct in what he wanted, I felt that when I DID get something, it was more meaningful than if I had gotten it without trying. Weirdly enough, if I had met someone who was emotionally readily available, I would’ve found them boring and not fun. Humans are so complex. I really don’t understand why we do this to ourselves.

  • @fossbin
    @fossbin 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is such an insightful video. Looking into personal experiences and relationships around, I still never understood why being secure was often boring. In the end, giving everything your person would want just makes it loose its price for some reason and not be able to struggle with the bare minimum which other would give just makes it boring. I've felt this so many times and dont know how I'd fix this so called 'boring side'. Dont worry they'd say... in the end its just one of the factors it doesn't work out in the end.

    Hey Rory, that's my favourite video of yours. But I'm not sure if I understand it fully. I feel like in my relationship I was this stable source of love and affection, I was supporting my ex as best as I could while still having my own opinions and interests. But he got bored. He said he wanted a change, and left to seek other girls. So does this mean that I was giving him too much and so that wasn't attractive to him? I think I might have to watch this video again!

    I actually crave for secure “boring” if you will relationship. My guy is typical avoidant. I got attracted to him because at start he seemed to be secure, and provide everything i wanted in terms of relationship, and one day its just like switch went off. Because he got feelings for me, after some time (he had 10+y relationship that broke him years ago) And he got scared. And he told me he got scared, and i get it. But boy this is a rollercoaster ride, and i already got off once. Tried for the second time because i love this guy to bits and pieces. I see he has emotions, but also a lot of problems with emotional part. I have no idea what to do, i dont want to give up. Ah...lord have mercy

      Do you think ignoring someone is right? Seems a bit manipulative to me. Instead lets go for telling the truth and holding our boundaries rather than playing the game of a child. In the same video Lucia is making fun of one of her viewers and calling them out by name. This is not a grown adult.
