    I only created this video because it helped me a lot and felt it could do the same for someone else out there!
    Keep fighting through it and eventually things will get better 💪!

    “She is actually the selfish, self centered person that cares about her self first and doesn’t care about you”. Is what I really needed to hear. Our whole relationship was me taking the steps to make it work and changing myself in whatever small ways were necessary to grow as a team. The moment I needed her to change, she cracked and ended it. I haven’t slept more than 3 hours in weeks. Thank you for this video.
    Edit: it’s been a year and a half now since posting this, and to everyone asking how I’m doing now, or if it gets better, I’m here to say yes! Since then I lost 35-40 pounds to get back in really good shape. I got in to power lifting, and switched up my careers. I now do cyber work for the Defense Department. I will tell you all this: that heartbreak was the best thing to ever happen to me. Let that heartbreak light a fire in your soul, and become the best man you can become.

      Being honest i'm in this process myself. I've been in a 8 year marriage that i've been working alone on and when i ask her to work with me she lashes out. And i think i'm finally done and i've been taking steps to get out. And these things help it's hard finding help for men in general.

    Dated my girl 6 years she broke up with me and is dating someone else 4 days later, while we still live together. Life can be hell guys but keep your head up and strive to be better. Don’t be petty, kill them with kindness and let them watch you succeed without them. No one is perfect and if 4 days is all it takes to get over 6 years… I was living a lie. Love you all be safe and work hard!

    Breakups are where champions are made.
    They leave you for someone else after all those months, or even years you guys were together. Making you feel like you weren't good enough.
    Two things you can do: Either confirm it by having her (or him) see you all upset, crying & depressed, or you get the hell up and crush all your boundaries.
    To my ex-girlfriend:
    Thank you for leaving. That taught me that I should never put anyone above me. The pain I was forced to go through ended up making me into the best possible version of myself I could've ever imagined. I learned to love myself. I started working out harder than I ever did before, eating healthy 24/7, significantly cutting back on alcohol, reading books regularly, made countless new friends, and went back to school.
    24 hours in a day. 6 for sleep, 18 for grinding. Nothing else matters.
    Get up, dust yourself off, and prove them wrong!

    In 2021: I was let go of my job, I lost financial stability, she gave back the ring and left, 2 weeks later my grandfather died, a month later I dislocated my shoulder and was out of lifting for 2 months, and to top it all of before I got physical therapy for the shoulder, I got an infection that made my body go septic and I died for 5 seconds. All I'm 2021. It proved that I can take a lot torment, sadness, and punishment. I beat death. And I needed to hear these words. Thank you and God bless to all who read this.

No matter how bad you're feeling right now , how much pain you're experiencing , how much you miss them and think you'll never find someone like them.. it's a process you have to go through and there is light at the end of it, one day you'll wake up and wont even remember their face ( of course delete all of their pictures ).

    It’s been 3 years since the break up and I can tell you this to anyone reading this. I know it hurts, I know time is moving so slow, the memories are constantly playing in your head, the sleepless nights feel like things will not get better. You hesitate to text her and you sometimes do and you end up getting hurt again. You look for any hope to be back together and make things right, all of this playing in your head is just killing you deep inside you. You feel unworthy, unhappy, lonely, stressed because of the whole break up. Don’t give up on yourself, keep going, keep pushing, do whatever you can to distract your mind and soul from this, use that anger and pain as motivation to be a better person. Don’t check up on her, don’t check her social media, just block her, erase all the texts and her number. You don’t need to go back to the same pain that put you through this. Let time heal you. Your life isn’t over, this is the opportunity to enjoy your life and discover yourself again. I’m over my ex and I’m happy where I’m at, I accomplished things that I didn’t think I was going to do and now I’m going to enroll in school to become a Registered Nurse and hopefully be a pediatrician like I always wanted to. Life gets better once you start to realize how much fun life really is and how far you can. You’ll end up finding someone but don’t be in a rush to look for it, first you gotta focus on yourself and fix all the problems you have in your life

      First off , I'm really sorry this happened to you but happy that you could rise from the Darkness to be a better versión of you're self , so I'm in the same boat , this happened after New years (2024) she left me for another guy , supossadly because this New guy is in the same page as her , they both want kids NOW ! I wanted also children but didn't wanna rush it , also the new guy has money , I'm a normal guy that works a normal job , I'm trying to keep my self busy , work more hours , save up money to buy my own house, wanna open a side hustle for extra money , I havent done it but I wanna go to the gym etc just wanna be a better human being , sometimes I believe I wasn't enough for her , now I know that wasn't the case , she's just a selfish woman who only cares for her self , I wanna hate her for what she did to me but I just can't I still love her , but I know that love has to die ,every day when I wake uo I check my phone to see if I have any message from her or a misses call ... something ! Or thinking I'm gonna wake up from this nightmare , just to release this is my reality . I was wirh her for almost 4 years , I thought she was gonna be the last woman in my life and I was gonna be the last men is her life , but she had other plans . To everyone else going trough something like this or something even worse , remember , life ,the universe , GOD HIM SELF , will take something from you're life without you knowing in that moment it's really a blessing and that person that got moved was just occupaing space from another person that's really meant to be in you're life and love you how you deserves to be loved , this is one of the many things I say to my self every day , it helps , a bit , please brothers and sisters you will rise from this heartbreak and become a better versión of you're selfs , be sucesfull ...... I truly wanna believe everything gets better later , I really do ! 😢

    Being an ugly guy , who never ever had a girlfriend , who desperately seeks attention , who have a desire to be loved by someone , who never received admiration / compliment from anyone .....I really needed to watch these videos , in which " real men" remind me my real duty , my self-worth , my potential . I am a man after all . I was born to conquer . I was born to rule the storms .
    No one will admire you , no one will love you unconditionally . No one will pat your back when you are suffering from pain , struggles , failures .
    The desire to be love is just an illusion . Kill this desire and be free .
    I've read all the comments on this video . I just want to say thank you all & All the Best

      All the future faking/promises to get you hooked and waiting to never receiving anything. Miserable life and when they chek out i was given hints but didnt listen she just was thier for the resources. Stoped giving my time resources cause i said you never kept your promises while i do and give all my time effort love and money. I was hit with the i was never going to do any of those things you know why i never tell you i love you cause i dont anymore. Me in my head u only said it through text never in person only during sex for like 10 years. I was blind I reliased she never loved you cause she never said it or did anything to prove it. She said i didnt even consider myself to be with you for over a year and a half. Im like you could of told me but i was naive not to see she was taking evrything i had cause she was preparing to leave or me calling it quits. Like you said she dont care she was never their so much time money freinds gone for her she never gave up anything or did anything for us it was all about her. She dont even let me see our daughters only when she wants something and xqught her mom telling her tell him to give you money good thing i saw. I was so this is why you wer so nice to me and let me see my girls.

    I imagined a life with her, for the past months I have been the happiest person ever, but today 9 Sunday of April, at 4am, she texted me and broke up with me, and while I'm trying not to have a mental breakdown she is out there having fun, because she didn't even care about us. Brothers we must go on and make this situations our motivation to keep up, Im sure she will come back to me and I will be ready to make her regret how she has treated me. Keep strong ❤️

No warning no talk no nothing, she told me she was leaving me, and was planning on leaving a note for me to read when I got home. 4.5 years we’ve been together, unreal. Never been in so much pain in my life. She told me she needed time and then 4 days later I found out she was on every dating site out there. My heart and soul are shattered. Unreal how someone who was your life and best-friend can do that to you.

She manipulated me into believing that she loved me, took advantage of me, once she used me up she was on to the next guy almost instantly with no regret. I actually feel bad for the guy, that he will go through the same situation one day. She made me believe she was this perfect, flawless caring woman when in reality she only ever looked out for herself. Be careful out there men, a lot of very fucked up women in the world.

    I had to listen to this twice because it's all so true. I'm going through it right now. The pain is deep. I mean to the point where I have to scream out and cry at times when alone. Just to let out the sadness, the anger, and the feeling of failure. I hate to be made to feel like I'm not good enough in life. Despite the stage I am at in life now and knowing how to avoid the pitfalls, I find myself here yet again. Different women, same type of pain. This type of turmoil seems to happen around every 5 years for me. Getting after it in my workouts helps a lot. As a matter of fact, my angry workouts are by a mile my best ones.

We had plans to buy our own home out of state, I was a step dad to her daughter and I loved her more than life itself. Listening to this video helped give me a better perspective on why she isn't the Saint I made her out to be in my head. When it came down to it, she demanded perfection from me - but she refused to change in any way. Self centered and selfish. You're not alone in this heartbreak boys!

One advice i can give you if your going Thru this is, go to the gym or exercise, push yourself and even on the days that you feel good and think u can "ease up" don't darker days will come and only discipline will help you push past those days. On the days I would wake up and felt like nothing mattered i always told myself "just make it thru the day" "just one more day".
    And just like that it's been 11 months im in great shape and I can only thank the past version of me for gritting his teeth and pushing thru.

    My partner left me and drug me through the dirt when I needed them the most. I was in a situation where everything around me was falling apart, I was breaking if not already broken and she let me fall and shatter when I was looking for someone I could count on to help me through my struggles. To anyone who's gone through or going through something similar. I have something to share that I realized while being in that situation.
    You didn't need HER the most in that situation. You needed support, you needed comfort and you needed affection. It wasn't HER that you needed. When you need someone the most reach deep and find it in yourself. Be kind to yourself, if it was a rough day let yourself know it'll be okay and there's always tomorrow. Remind yourself of your accomplishments. Look back and remember all the things you got through and achieved when they weren't in your life. You did it without them. And most importantly love yourself through thick and thin. Tell yourself that you're worth it. Tell yourself that you're strong and whatever you're going through will make you stronger. Instead of HER being constantly repeated in your head, constantly repeat positivity about YOU in your head. Imagine if all the love that you gave or are giving to that person, you gave to yourself instead. Your heart and mind would be where you find your peace. Love yourself.
    Keep your heads up fellow kings and keep moving forward.

    He's right about the perfect imagen of her/him .You have to be able to remember the things that pissed u off or made you upset. Be a judge of your own character as well and what you did wrong . Forgive yourself and your significant other and find something (not a person) that makes you happy . An the biggest advice I can give is do things by yourself whether that's going to the grocery store or the movies etc and meditate. Cuz at the end of the day when you close your eyes too sleep it's you and you alone in there make sure it's a place u want to be 🙏

    She left me about 9 months ago. No explanation, absolutely no reason given. Just said she didn't love me anymore and moved out.
    I felt like I was physically dying for the first two weeks of living in that house by myself. Thank goodness I'm doing better now, but I'm surprised I survived, to say the least.

    I was married for 14 years to a woman I didn't think was perfect, but I loved her unconditionally. While turning my life around, becoming a better person for her and my son, she was hiding the fact she filed for divorce and was leaving, taking him with her. I didn't find out until the day before. Now I come home to a 3 bedroom apartment that I can barely afford, one that I got for my family, so they could be safe from the part of town we used to live in. So my son could go to better schools. I sat down in that empty place we once shared together and realized, whatever I have now, I will always have more in the future. Guys, there are some really shitty women out there. Your mental health does matter, even though it feels like it doesn't. I thought she was my best friend, someone who would support me the same way I did for her, I was wrong.

It was only until I woke up and realized that that person did not care about me at all and that they were was manipulative and using me in so many ways. I am so grateful to see videos like this to help see the way the mind works. Because as long as you’re building up this false person in your head, it’s you that’s creating the pain for yourself. It’s only until you realize that when you love yourself enough to get up, work out, go do things with your friends, and rebuild your life that you stay in the rut. Love yourself enough to get up! Care enough about yourself to not let the depression of a false made person keep you down!

I didn't realize how unhealthy it had become and blamed myself for any issues, when it was her issues that she projected onto me. She left last month out of nowhere as the relationship rapidly went downhill. Now I'm waking up and realize she was never the person she presented herself to be. I need to let her go, she gives me false hope that eventually we will work out, while at the same time she keeps her options open for something better. I do love her, but I need to love myself more.

Though losing someone you love through anyway is never an easy thing, and is not something ever to be lucky to have. To those who took their lives at this, I can't help. Though anyone who is sad enough to have that want or feel like that's the right thing, I'll fully say it's not. Build yourself up, you're the foundation of your relationship as well as your partner. Remember your own identity, as well as yourself as a couple and that will make you feel better when you break up. If you never make it to a relationship, wait to find the person who you can be with, or are meant to be with. Love was never made to be an easy thing, because it's not love when it's off the spur of the moment. That's ignorance.

Even something small like picking up the garbage in your room. Just something you can hang your hat on and eventually you can start stringing enough of the small things together to feel like you’re bettering yourself which will make you feel better.

    Oh this is very true. It took me decades to learn this. I was married to a woman for almost 30 years who I believe loved me and cared about me when in reality she was a very damaged person due to being abused as a child and was a very toxic person. In my mind I saw her as a loving caring person but in reality she was far from it over the years she obtained seven restraining orders and filed for divorce four times against me. My life was a roller coaster, not much happiness, and very traumatic. But I was so blind to this because in my mind I just believed she loved me and really cared about me but now I understand that was not reality just some mental construct I had of her. I look back over pictures and videos of our family over the last few decades and it’s amazing how many of them she is not in there because we were fighting or quarreling or because she ran and took off periodically. My mother had to remind me just how bad it was all of the crazy antics and drama we had experience over the years. The advice given in this video is on point is very true I hope it helps others the way it helped me. Thank you and God bless.

    I went through this. It's very true. I thought she was the one but it really was just an illusion of what i built in my mind. I went through such brutal mental and heartache in 2019 and 2020 but i knew i had to cut her off completely and forever because of betrayal. No matter how much crying and pleading they do to try and keep you , once you are betrayed and abused it's over. And now you are left to refocus and find out who you are and rebuild yourself. It's not a victory but a learning experience that truly changes you because of what you experienced. I will never let anything or anybody get that close to ever disrespect me again. And i will move on a stronger man now.

    I’ve been listening to this everyday. I have the discipline and this is just the extra motivation I need. Spent years in one of the most emotionally abusive relationships I have ever experienced. Take care of yourselves, don’t stay stuck somewhere you aren’t meant to be. Get after it 💪
