    The first guy is experiencing a once in a lifetime love. You can tell in the way he speaks about her, the way he looks at her and the way his emotions pour out. The love even seems to be a healing experience for him. I pray that it last forever for the both of them.

      @TheBorderRyker Рік тому +153

      It’s absolutely true. For me, love is in the quiet moments where words are not necessary. When, for example, you can be in each other’s company just sitting quietly reading or whatever and you both look up at the same time and just smile. Or in the silly moments when you laugh together for little or no reason. It’s in the smile that lights up in my wife’s eyes. It was in the first time I told my (now) wife “I love you” accidentally on the telephone. It just sort of happened. After I hung up I kind of sat in shock for a few minutes thinking to myself “Shit! It’s true.”. We’ve been together ever since. Thank you for the beautiful videos that you make Thoraya. You are a beautiful soul. Best wishes from Scotland 🙏🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

      True.
      I felt home whenever my husband and I were together. He made me laugh most of the time, and even helped me be a joker myself. Lijewise, I had better appetite, and slept more soundly - we both snored! I saw the worst side of him, and him mine, but we stuck it out together, as he kept repeating 'Nobody leaves. We're staying together.'
      I use the past tense because he passed away 7 months ago.
      I have lost a few pounds, and feel restless most of the time. A few men have asked me if I'm considering remarrying, to which I always replied, "No."

Its like he is doing everything according to him to make me happy n feel secure but am not able to feel tht kinda safety n peace which i used to feel before. I cannot differentiate whether this is my gutfeelings or m pretty anxious . Am just so fucked up n confused tht i sometimes ended being alone for days n weeks to love myself to just ran away from all those ppl who ask me about my love life or how i felt being in a relationship where i genuinely find no reason of staying bcz m internally broken into thousands of pieces from which each of them are asking whether love make u feel like this.

      I would not suggest to take this kind of personal advice from random strangers, but my take on this limited information is: Talk about how you feel with them. Ofcourse it is possible for somebody to treat you like that. And yes you can still be in love with someone that does that to you. Heck he/she might be actually in love with you aswell but just has some issues he/she deals with like that. Talk Talk Talk. The only solution to find out. if it turns out this person does not actually love you. The healthiest thing to do you is to break it up probably.@@Aceofspades737

      Sometimes we need a reminder. That's okay. I lost my husband in September after 17 years together. Depending on how your brain works, it can be all too easy to focus on the bad things. I can't help but think I could've and should've done more to show my husband how much I loved him and wish I would've been more present with him when he was dealing with cancer. It sounds so cliche, but the happiest people are probably those who live in the moment because that's all we have. It took losing my husband to appreciate those mundane moments a lot more. What I would give for just one more chance to lay on the couch watching TV or go grocery shopping with him.

My grandpa would work in his room while my grandma was usually somewhere outside. And yet, they were probably a perfect match for each other. Whenever they were together, they were acting as a team. It's just that they needed their own private space in the house and they respected that.
      So I believe you will find the right person that will enrich your life and at the same time will let you feel at peace without the feeling of intrusion in your private space.

Part of why many women are choosing to be single because many men are used to lashing out on and putting extra load of labour on women's heads as if a given. It pays to wait for the right one that lets you be soft and in return soothe him too, not some games, competition trying to outplay and fleece each other and brag to the rotten part of the world about it. Too many feel the need to piss in someone else's pool of tranquility, only doing "take, take, take" part without a "give" to balance it out and make it worth it.

The whole time we were together he had a girl best friend who I was extremely jealous of, I changed myself to fit her image because I felt that was what he wanted. I started listening to different music, dressing differently, watching different shows, my whole identity changed. For two years we went back and forth, he would leave me for her and then he would come back telling me he had made a mistake. Then one day, after he had broken me down over and over, he told me that he was in a good place and that my mental health was dragging him down. A few weeks later i found out that he had told the best friend he was in love with her the whole time. It’s been about 5 years but I still find myself putting the pieces of who I was before him back together.

And ofcourse, love ourselves (that's something I realised after going through so much, giving to people so much). Take all the time to heal. Not everyone can heal in certain amount of time. Also we feel that we have healed but then get triggered by something that brings all the pain from the past. Eventually we will heal and become the best version of ourselves. All the best 👍

    The first couple is the love I desire and want to experience just once in this life but the last girl was a similar love I've received as well. I thought I knew what love was and how it felt but I learned that I don't. But now I've taken on a new perspective to give myself that love first so when I get that love, I won't push it away but accept it full on. I normally would cry when I see things like this but I had the biggest smile and heart was fully open. I hope everyone including that girl finds a love that brings them peace, tranquility, and friendship ❤❤

    I knew it was love when I wasn't scared of what was to come anymore because I knew he'd be by my side, cheering me on and reminding me why life is such a beautiful, fascinating thing. I knew it was love when he made life feel worth living.

    I feel sorry for the girl at 11:00 to have gone through that. She was definitely dating a narcissist. I've experienced the same thing not long ago.

    The first guy made me tear up. He explained it so beautifully ❤❤

    "You are my peace". I'll never ,ever, forget this phrase.

    I love how it's about peace and calm rather than fireworks and excitement. (I mean, fireworks and excitement are fun, too, but they're not love.)
