      It’s the same for me. The worst thing is they left because the version of our selves that they were with wasn’t adequate. Even though it’s a lesson and an opportunity to grow it doesn’t make it any easier.

    Working on yourself is the only thing worth doing, really. You'll raise your own standards, detach yourself from this whole situation, heal, be less weak mentally. If they reach out and want to come back, you are in a position where your head is clear enough so that you have the power to say either yes or no. If they don't reach out, you don't care, you're succeeding at life and you keep raising your standards, you won't be waiting for them anymore.
    Your ex will be the one missing out on a person improving by the day, knowing that they loved you when you were far from what you are right now.
    Just think of it this way : you could be in the best relationship, free of serious fights and overflowing with reciprocated love. You may still lose your partner, nobody is safe from tragedy. What would you do then ? They wouldn't come back, nobody would be to blame, you did everything right. Yet you'd still be alone. If you only saw value in your life through them, well, too bad. You're worth nothing anymore. Your only way out would be to work on yourself because there would be no other choice if you ever wanted to feel alive again.
    This is why you don't sacrifice your whole self to someone else, even if they're a perfect match.
    So if there's a breakup, guess what, you certainly won't sacrifice anything to someone who doesn't want anything to do with you right now. That includes your well being.
    Your value is in you, and you can control that. You set the bar. You live for you so that no matter what happens, your life has meaning as long as YOU exist. You push that meaning to its maximum.

    I'm actually glad my ex left me for a girl he has known for a few weeks. He forces me to work on myself. And when I'm in a better place and actually love myself for the first time in my life, I just know that I never want him back. Because he's an idiot for leaving me and doesn't deserve the new and better version of me.

You need to take care of number one, the fellas here, the gym and fresh air can do wonders. Dont go out and get drunk, get laid, thats a bandaid over a wound. Take YOUR time, grieve and work on yourself and never give up on YOU. Thanks for the great video.

    The truth about getting your ex back is you dont really want them back. They left one time! What makes you think they wont do it again? Have worth to yourself. Let them walk and if they get back, still walk away and dont look back. You are a catch! And they let you go. It's their lost!

    • @0h2ezy
      @0h2ezy 5 років тому +9

      homerjavier123 some background: we have never dated but I told her I liked her and we began moving forward with the normal relationship question and talk. (For about 3 months, talking 6-8 months in total) Shortly before this post, it appeared as if she had met someone else and jumped into that relationship. I was devastated.
      A week or so after the original post, she began showing up at the gym (where we met) when she knew I would be there. She began talking to me again 2 weeks later (still awkward). As of this post, it has been 10 weeks. We are talking. She is very flirty and has began talking relationship stuff again, IMO. I refuse to text her first and we haven’t spoken out of the gym, but we are making plans to hang out soon.
      I believe I was too much too soon for her, but not ridiculous. I would text her daily, and always first. No excessive messaging or anything. I just needed to find her comfort zone.
      I’m very hopeful and trying to be super chill. I still don’t know 💯 if there was another guy but I think there was, but it was just the wrong guy. I’ve never prayed more and really sought God to break up that relationship and restore ours.
      If I could offer any advice, just lay low. Seek God, He can be your strength in this situation. Don’t try to pick up my girl cause I’ll out pray you, lol. Blessings to you.

      @0h2ezy 4 роки тому +4

      P D she has been dating this guy for over a year. She reached out to me in February and told me that she doesn’t intend on marrying this guy. She invited me to church. Things went well, then silence for 2 months. She then text me and said she missed me and I said me too, knowing she is still dating this guy. I called a couple days later to understand what is going on in her head. Mixed signals I said. She said she doesn’t want to marry him but she’s just having fun. So I asked if she ever had feelings for me. She said she did and does and “always will”. I gave her an out and said if all she wanted was to be friends, then just let me know and I would be ok with that. She didn’t take the out. Currently a month and a half since I’ve spoken to her. There are days she breaks my heart again. I don’t reach out to her and will not. I’ve chased, now it’s her turn. I believe she’s the one, but she’s going to have to repair my trust. When it happens, I’m going to take it super slow and prayerfully. I just need strength to make it until.

    It’s been years since I’ve visited this channel. When I first stumbled upon it I was 14 years old and had been broken up with for about a week. Those were desperate, heartbreaking times grieving the partner I had lost in love but not death. Still near, yet so unreachable and even still I beggingly laid my palms out to the darkness desperately hoping she would cling to my touch. I was helpless but as I continued to watch this channel, I eventually found peace and love for myself. My hope for my ex-lover turned into hope within myself. Rory you have taught me so so much, and you’re wisdom has turned me into a better person. Although I am not the exact person I want to be right now, I know I will surely continue to grow and reach my goals. It’s been a bizarre couple years since then, but I couldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you Rory, so thank you I hope you’re doing well! ❤️

Need this to remind myself that I'm doing this for myself no matter how hard it is to deal with not for him...I know he's not coming back and he left this label that he lied to me after the things he said to me after the breakup....saying things that I can still count on him and making himself a support system when he knows I'm having health problems... And he can't keep his word.. If that is his journey to self love then I don't want to be part of that

    what if we have worked on ourselves, but they haven’t? it seems likely they will not have because they didn’t have much of a reason to (didn’t get rejected, they feel empowered, etc.) and don’t have the benefit of being uprooted emotionally. i guess it comes down to working on ourselves for ourselves not them and not to get the relationship back like you said.

      That said, did your ex really come back after 6 months of Total radio silence? Perhaps you could do a video of how that happened..?

      Tip get you ex back: Give him the space he needs - All men really want is a little bit of space. Maybe you both got into a fight and he just needs a little while to think about what he wants to do. Just like the saying goes, "absence makes the heart grow fonder."Most of the time, this method will have him crawling back to you in no time. If it does not work, then you two were not meant to be together in the first place. Visit *MyExLove. info* If you want to get back your ex back

Naturally I want it to mean something more. Probably going to stop posting on my personal account for a few days. IDK. It's still hard. I've been working on things. Made improvements to the condition of my apartment, went out and scored a new job (things are rough in Vegas right now). I sell my art on the side as well. Trying to do more with myself since things just got stagnant this year with COVID. Learning about my attachment style. It still hurts. Still miss her. She made me laugh so much...

    Hey coach, what about having a good relationship and your ex breaks up with you after his father dies because he "doesn't have time, needs to care for his family"? He said "I'm not breaking up, just saying I need to be alone and need time", then not a word since november 20... all via whatsapp. There were many red flags (especially his needy family) and maybe I was too clingy due to my attachment issues, but he is totally ghosting and stonewalling me, I am using silence but slipped three times and wrote him many bad things, I don't think he even saw them though.

  • @jennymorgan6493
    @jennymorgan6493 5 років тому

    My ex is 46 and I’m 45. We have broken up twice due to his older children having a problem at times with us being together. I never had any bad words toward them. We got back together last year after 6 weeks and I moved in with him and then his father who is very close to him felt I was taking him away from him and became very jealous and never wanted to come over to the house. He always came over several times a week. My bf would get so upset with all of them but never supported my feelings and we got in a horrible fight over it because I asked him to talk to his dad and just accept that we can all be happy together and just accept our relationship. He ended up breaking up with me due to the arguing over the family situation and said I was his best friend and the love of his life but he wanted to be with someone that his family wanted to be around. It crushed me because he never communicates and I was the easy one to get rid of. He never had to choose but I’ve worked on my self learned more patience and going to therapy but I feel like it still shouldn’t be over because we never fixed the core problem from the first break up. We never had any other issues. My question is can you fix this after a couple of relationships or is it just over thank you so so very much for your time!!!

    I was with my ex for nearly a year, she broke up with me because she said we didn’t trust one another and that I wasn’t what she needed it’s only been a month and I drive my self mad when she ended it we even met a few times after the break up and it was weird but we was just holding on to something then about the 10 of December she blocked me on all platforms and said good bye josh have a nice life , I’m done now. I didn’t do my self any favours because I was accusing her of talking to someone else at this point and driving the girl mad when she asked for space and even after she blocked me I still tried to reach out made new accounts we live up the road from eachover so seeing her was easy I never stalked or waited for her but when I see her near the shops I would say hello and even after she blocked me the first time she said hello after that time I seen her twice and she completely blanked me and it was like I didn’t exist. And it only took me till theses moments that I was forcing it and maybe if I closed contact and didn’t reach out things would have been different so sometimes doing to much and be worse than doing nothing just after a break up remove ur self and just do ur own thing. I’m still finding it hard and one day would love to sit down and say I’m sorry to this person but sadly I don’t think that day will ever come 🙄

    Rory, my ex I and I broke up 3 months ago and I immediately went into NC . She stopped any social media contact until about 2 weeks ago she started liking my posts and even liked a couple older post and now watches all my stories. I know this probably only breadcrumbs and not to break NC but I was wondering do you think she will eventually reach out to me or do you think she was just lonely, looking for validation or was she trying to get my attention to tell me she was interested in me again. I know if she was truly interested she could do an indirect text message but I guess I am letting my mind play mind games on me and wanting it to be the last option but I guess I have to keep staying strong and working on myself. Any ffed back would be great. Thanks, your videos always help me when I need to get through a rough day.

    For me the more my LDR ex reaches out the more I think about not getting back together with him cause he seem so toxic it's like he gets satisfaction out of making me feel bad. He said he missed me at first and he added this emoji 😏. Which is the emoji he uses when he could care less. But I hardly responded to him. The last time he contacted me he tried to make me feel like I looked terrible on Christmas. And he was telling me how single and lonely he is . It felt more like he was like he was trying to set a trap for me. Have me begging for him to take him back because he was the one that dump me. Mind you he dump his ex as soon as she had thier baby. I went full no contact as soon as we broke up. Never reached out and don't want him back. I'm just shocked that he pretended to care for 6 months because he is acting really narcissistic towards me it's hard to picture him like a bitter person. Told him to leave me alone the last time. And never contact me again. I still cannot believe he turned out like this. Never apologised for hurting me. He didn't even break up properly. He asked for space and that was it. As soon as he asked for space I went into no contact. Hardly showed any type of weakness and improved myself. Why does he want me back and why is he trying hard to make me feel bad?

But other than that, which I'm doing for myself, I'm pretty happy with who I am. Honestly, I don't think I was the biggest problem. I think I was just looking for something deeper than he was. Was I perfect? Heck no. I was needy and clingy. But I wouldn't have been that way had he been just a little more attentive. I just think he wasn't ready to commit to the degree I needed.

Im feeling mentally and physically exausted. How do I know this time its going to work. How can a make all these changes myself and actually make the world see Im a changed confidant good person. It just hits home even the one I loved thought I dont want to help myself when I feel like Im trying my hardest and hitting a brick wall, and the slow and painful changes for me seems like nothing for others. Also could do with help in postive change but dont have family or friends support so all these years surviving trauma and trying to change myself has taken its toll. But I feel utter guilt and cant forgive myself for losing the only person I felt loved me , due to all my complex baggage. Im still in shock and grief and struggling to get out of the denial of his decition and he actually is gone and doesnt love me anymore ? Into 16 day no contact and he hasnt even reached out.

    Hi!!! I was really hoping for some of your amazing advice if you have the time??
    So I feel like my situation is very unique.. but basically my ex and I split so that we can work on ourselves then have a fresh start together. We relied on each other too much we both lost ourselves so we needed to work on that separately.
    It’s been almost 2 months of no contact BUT only last week we did have a conversation about how we’ve been. He did mention he wants to see me when the times right, when we’re both ready. But he won’t be ready until he can cope with it all emotionally.
    I think it’s the same with me, I need to be comfortable living within myself before I can see him again. Otherwise I’ll fall into my old needy habits.
    Have you ever had a situation like this? How long roughly do you think we will both need to be able to emotionally handle the breakup so we’re able to reconnect? Do you have any thoughts?
    Thank you so much ❤️

    I had an affair and we were about to get married but without saying a reason they called off the wedding. Like all i cried till, my husband came up with a proposal at home, yes may be in 10days... he was a friend of mine. So i forgot that ex very soon... now i am his widow (ya i know, its sad but i won't give up). i started a relationship 6months back(2.5yrs after husband's death), he being bipolar and me too much an empath i guess, he impulsively blocked me after i asked him about the less talking we had and his online at late night.
    Now, i know we are not going to get back together (this is the 9th time). Cos being bipolar his mind creates story where he is the victim. I don't think he can help it nor me.
    And if being with me is pain for him, i accept and retrieve. After all i want him to be happy even if its without me... this acceptance helped me to move on, till day 8 i was pathetic weeping but day 13 i stand with more positivity.
    Accept and move on.... and let the time solve this... cos we can never control the way others think.

      I said all these dialogue... and after 15day of NC.... reached out.... and as coaches say, i should show attitude.... and that's what he expected too... but i reacted opposite... and talked... he told his insecurities and apologized.... and we are together again. But this time i am not loosing what i learned during NC.... not to over think and assume things.
      He told he blocked me everywhere out of anger. Then later felt guilty and ashamed in doing that.. and after few days he forgot what we were fighting for and started missing me and feeling lonely... and he slept very very late cos fight with me had influenced him terribly. So coach this is my man's point. Hope if you read sometimes can get more understanding. He usually reaches out to me by 10/15th day NC. Not just reaching out.... wanting me... may not be case for all.
