      Passion and toxicity aren’t even close to similar. Passion just means strong emotions. Also you can have passion in a stable and caring relationship and should do. Why on earth would you want a boring relationship? Women of the past only ever put up with that because it was forced on them by men but most of our great grandmothers were unhappy. A love without passion really isn’t the best use of life. Especially when there’s men that offer both. You do you though.

    In Beauty and the Beast, to Belle’s credit, she runs away from the monster. She only falls in love with him after he changes.
    Contrary to popular interpretation, Belle does not try to change the Beast. She rejects him. Even as he tries to pursue her because he is trying to use her to break the curse, she rejects him.
    Her love does not change him. Her rejection does.
    The Beast eventually voluntarily and genuinely changes - becomes civilized, caring, and self sacrificing. But she doesn’t make him change - he chooses it. And only after he has changed, she enters a relationship with him.
    There’s a grey zone there where the Beast was trying to improve… and in so long as he was doing this Belle stuck around as a friend. She only fell for him after she saw he had really changed.
    But the nuance is too fine for children and all they see is that if they take a chance on a Beast they may get a prince.
    The real message is that you should run away from Beasts, and only give them a chance once they’ve become better people.

    • @ange7422
      @ange7422 Рік тому +8

      Very well said. There’s so much nuance. It’s important to have standards and boundaries and look after yourself, and at the same time know that people are not static or one dimensional. That people can grow and change and to allow for room to let someone evolve.
      We humans are relational creatures, we learn and grow and develop from our experiences with others. Our relationships good or bad teach us lessons we need to learn.
      We are constantly told by media now to only accept perfect people who don’t exhibit any red flags. I’m not saying to ignore red flags, however maybe it’s a little to black and white to discard people and write them off for having things that they need to work on.
      Part of treating others the way you wish to be treated could mean giving people second chances and supporting them while they change themselves.
      We can grow together.

      Thanks but I actually disagree with you to a degree.
      I do think you shouldn’t enter romantic relationships with people with red flags.
      It is possible to help people change from a relative distance, as a friend, as Belle did - only so long as they cannot and/or do not harm you while they are changing. Belle sticks around because Beast stops yelling at her and threatening her. His conversion isn’t complete, but he is no longer dangerous so she stays and helps him grow as a friend.
      Entering a romantic relationship is a very different thing though. It’s closely tying your emotional, psychological & physical health, your future, and your children’s future with someone. Belle does not enter a romantic relationship with Beast (even if she is developing romantic feelings for him) until after he proves himself changed.
      I would advise a similar approach to all boys and girls. Do not enter romantic relationships with those who exhibit red flags that make them risky life partners and parents to your future children. If they need help and you want to give it and it’s safe to do so, you can do it as a friend.

      @@UnAnonKnown i didn’t say to enter into a romantic relationship with red flags.
      I was pointing out how black and white thinking it is for our online culture to tell people to blanket discard all people with red flags.
      I am not at all saying to tolerate abuse.
      Red flags can mean a hell of a lot of things. Do we drop someone for 30 red flags? That’s likely wise. What about one or two? And does it not matter what the flag is for? One physical violence red flag weighs far heavier on the scale than five smaller ones like “saying I love you right away”.
      And again, I didn’t say date them, I said in some cases it’s not necessary to discard.
      For instance, you can be friends with people who aren’t emotionally mature or healthy enough to date if you so choose. Or if you really want to, you can date someone with some red flags if you’re ok with that challenge. It’s a case by case thing.
      People are complex. Most people come with baggage and damage. It’s not your job to fix anyone, that’s on them. But at the same time there’s room for compassion and connectivity of various kinds if a certain person is worth it to you.

      @UnAnonKnown Рік тому +9

      @@ange7422 Ah sorry I misunderstood that then.
      Yes I agree. I do think that when we talk about red flags we’re using referring to dating (although some really toxic family & friends with too many red flags can become so destructive that distance needs to be created).
      I mean, I have several male friends who I enjoy as friends for their several good qualities, but whom I couldn’t imagine dating for certain negative ones. And they often come to me for advice & support in their lives & relationships (and sometimes I go to them). So we do help each other grow, but from a distance that doesn’t allow us to harm each other’s future.
      Friendship can be this lovely in between where we can help each other grow without the same “danger”.

    A loving relationship is supposed to feel safe and calm. It's not to provide constant entertainment or non-stop dopamine hits. Chemistry and "spark" are false signals mistaken for love. I've learned not to seek excitement in people. Hobbies and interests bring me excitement and joy. Experiences I share with my husband and other friends, like traveling or watching movies, are my fun. I never put pressure on anyone to be my entertainment though and I don't expect to be constantly entertaining others either.

      ​​​​@@walkertranger5746 that's because you know them and have genuine love for them. My comment was more about people who have superficial relationships where they get "bored" if the person isn't bantering with them or providing entertainment for them constantly. That's when they end good relationships to seek out excitement in others, not realizing that will never make them happy. I love my husband, friends and family as well. We can all sit in a room in silence and still enjoy eachother's company. The love I have for my husband isn't dependent on anything. It's unconditional. I have friends who have separated or divorced because their marriages lost it's "spark" or someone or both got bored, ended up cheating, etc. How can a person get bored with someone they truly love? They never truly loved them... they loved the "entertainment" they provided them by stroking their ego, trying to impress, trying to provide constant stimulation, etc. Everyone needs entertainment in their lives to provide excitement, push their limits, overcome fears, get dopamine rushes, etc. Instead of going online and playing a video game, they treat their relationships with people like a game. Instead of going to an amusement park and riding the rollercoaster, people seek relationships that ARE the rollercoaster. It's not the role of any person to act as the rollercoaster for their partner and there shouldn't be an expectation to seek that out in any human being.

    I think falling in love should be a combination between exitement, a healthy one, and a feeling of calmness and safety. And if you feel that some guy is boring, you shouldn't say to yourself "oh that means that is a healthy guy. I should be with him." Instead of ghat you should leave him cause he deserves someone that is 100 percent sure that wants to be with him same respect that you deserve to receive.

    In my experience, you have to basically get over falling in love, be alone for a bit, focus on yourself, a passion or improving something. When you are no longer hung up on anyone you will know what you need and look for that person. There are soooo many ppl on dating apps that are looking to use someone to get over someone else. How can that be right? You will suffer your whole life if you don't at least once give yourself time to get to know who you are and learn to love that person first.

    My GF of 6 months left me because she didnt feel "the spark" (aka chemistry) between us. Although we hadnt had any fights or major values disagreements (we had same views on world, same plans for the future etc...), we laughed, had great time, cuddled, I was attentive, wanted the best for her and for us, everything seemed to be great. One day she just told me that we should break up because she didnt feel the same "chemistry" as she had in her previous relationship. I think this was exactly what Martha was saying. She (maybe) wanted to feel the old feeling, have someone who showed her that she was not enough

    We repeat dysfunctional patterns in our intimate partner relationships when we haven't integrated our trauma (repetition compulsion and trauma reenactment); the reason why we are attracted to certain types of people is because they feel familiar to our nervous system (i.e. strong chemistry). Even when on a cognitive level we acknowledge red flags, we ignore them and repeat the same pattern over and over until we rewire our nervous system and create a new pattern through e.g. psychotherapy/somatic experience therapy/Neuroaffective Psychotherapy. Repetition compulsion usually stems from a familiar dynamic of our childhood. And our relationship with our primary caregivers become the blueprint of our relationships throughout our lives unless we embody a different nervous system.

My mom was 19 and dad was 22 and I experienced alot of the same and interpreted love in that way as a younger woman. It wasn't that they were boring, it was a me problem and what I experienced with seeing my parents interactions. Also, same interpretation as being called alot and told early on "I love you" were taken as someone who loved you but coming out of the relationship realized alot of what I went through and interpreted as love was actually control.

    Yes, rescuing is a terrible bypass to self-healing. There is a greater problem in all of this rhetoric of over-correction. The opposite of enmeshment isn't counter-dependence (i.e. strong independence). We are social animals. Experience shapes the soul.

As I break up with this man for the second time I realize it was the chemistry that was the attraction but he’s just fundamentally not a good person and I’m a really good person , I dont drink and I deserve and shall seek and find a good person by walking away from a bad toxic person.amen.

But when I left for a few weeks everything just flipped and got weird and fights started happening.

Friendship and Love are two completely separate things for us, I’m not sure why men blur the lines so much.

    I have to say, my experience has been very similar. My parents married in their early 20’s, I was first born. Very hostile and that’s just what I was exposed to. I sabotaged a great relationship, not because of her but because of me and what I knew. Very sad and heartbreaking but it’s refreshing to hear her talk about it. It helps me understand why things ended up the way they did.

    I just had finished every contact with a man I met on fb, we talked for 11 days, had 4 dates. 8 days now since no contact. On our 1st date he told me he loves me. It was a red flag to me. I told him, please don't tell me that, it is lust what you feel. He got annoyed and said, don't tell me what I feel. Every day he kept telling me I love you so much. I miss you. He wanted future with me immediately. Talked about us living together, buying a house. In 1 month we will be in a relationship....but he pushed me very hard to have sex with him. I refused to have sex so early. I told him please be patient with me. We need to know each other more....before sex. He was extremely clingy on me physically. Asking me many times, do you need me! On the 4th date he broke up with me, with very hurtful words to me. He doesn't want to waste his emotions on me anymore, because I don't give him what he needs, sex. That I probably can't handle younger man, because of my age 45. He is 35. Because I don't have energy for him. I'm single mother with 2 teenage kids, solo custody. He told me we can stay friends but no relationship. I felt him as very insecure man, 40 lb overweight. He told me he wants to be loved and needed. I finished with him. No friends. Next day he texted me, apologized for the harsh conversation. Saying, I am so sorry, I couldn't sleep all night myself. I just want to apologize. And he sent me Facebook friend request. I didn't accept him. I blocked him. I am still healing from the hurt he caused me. He showed me many red flags during 11 days.

      I wouldn’t let that man come closer in anyway. He seems manipulative, something feels like he wanted to have sex with you and told you everything he thought you would want to hear so he could get laid. And because you refused sex, he’s mad at you as again a manipulative way to get what he wants. I would definitely kick him out of my way.

      It sounds like he has a few issues and he also seems like a scammer. Him acting like an emotional rollercoaster in such a short period of time is not something you want to get involved with.

    This is a recurring theme for me, I somehow attract people that are broken and I know I can't help them if they don't wanna help themselves, so it always leads nowhere. It's not that I seek these kinds of people, it's just that for some reason those are the only ones interested in me. Obviously I have issues myself that I am working on, but to me it seems that many people are not willing to work on theirs for some reason.

    Thanks for the Disney part, from a child of the 90s, it is now clear to me the amount of "promotion of codependent behaviours" we had through social conditioning (movies). That was scary with the eyes of now and totally normalized back then.

    • @jaybee4288
      @jaybee4288 Рік тому

      Something even scarier though, is these people don’t stop they just change. Look at what Disney is promoting now, it’s all liberal left wing propaganda. Now I personally do not care, I somewhat agree with a lot of it. However we’re being socially conditioned now, we were socially conditioned back then.. it’s quite crazy when you think how much influence one single corporation has been able to push over the years.

    I was binge watching telly the other day (almost never do it), and I bumped into a snippet of that "Fifty Shades of ..." whatever movie. I know it was a huge hit, so I was curious. I endured maybe ten minutes. The guy, I guess already the heroine's husband at that point was throwing a hissy fit over the fact that his wife "dared" to go have a drink with her bestie after work. "I did not know where you were!!! I felt completely helpless" - he said, or something to that effect. I am 49, divorced, but if someone did that to me, I would run to the Arctic without a backward glance. No doubt: Hollywood romanticizes abusive relationships. Very concerning.

    • @sherriflemming3218

    Why we don't see Beauty and the Beast (one of my fav movie) like this: Beauty, she is pretty of course, but she is also very smart, read a lot of books, she is ambitious and she didn't want Gaston (narcist, violent, but handsome walking red flag xd). She fell in love with the Beast at the end of their ,,journey". She saw in him good treats and sensitive side (not pretty words, but actions). She told Him ,,I love You", when he was dying after he let her free despite the curse. But of course it is only my opinion and my view at this story :)

      Why are u taking everything at face value? Checking where you are is better than indifference. Everyone now is misguided by these therapist terms of “codependency not love”, control and real care. A man should be responsible, otherwise you’ll be drowning somewhere and no one will check on you, and that will be the end if you, see? Absolute absence of control is nonsense in commited relationships. People, especially men get rotten by too much freedom

      @AlyneMedium Рік тому +5

      There’s a difference between a soulmate connection and a trauma bond, which is, I suppose, your concern here? You know you’re in a trauma bond when you feel this deep attraction to someone but your intellectual connection stays at surface level and feels inauthentic. Like you can’t really be yourself around this person. Something feels weird… Or forced because you want this person. With a soulmate, you won’t even have to talk much to understand each other. You resonate like best friends, it’s obvious between you two and mostly IT FEELS SAFE. You will feel safe with this person… In a trauma bond, you’re always on guard and stressed out. 💋

    Really not loving that when Matthew has a woman on these clips, he does not cite their name in the title. However, when he interviews a man, he does. It screams, "I don't value women's intellectual input so I don't give them proper credit." Put their damn name in the title (including the video with your own girlfriend) like with Jay Shetty, Matthew McConaughey and other men interviewed! 🤢

    I disagree. I had attracted a narc but I didn’t have any butterflies at the beginning or later. He was boring af and stupid sometimes. But then. , with me he started to jump over his level, being the best version of himself, I fell in love with his attitude. Later, he revealed himself. He was my mirror ( and thus started to be kind and empathetic) now he dumped me getting back to his self, mixing with strange irresponsible friends, betraying God, lying, breaking promises, being aloof etc. So abusive relationship doesn’t necessarily start with butterflies or libido attraction

    • @LaPinturaBella
      @LaPinturaBella Рік тому +3

      People tell us who they are all the time. Some will do so right away, others put on an act and then their mask slips. Sometimes they tell you in words, others will tell you by their actions. The words and the actions must match.
      When someone tells you straight out they are not a nice person, believe them. This is not a challenge that if you show them love, they will change. If you continue with this person, you are giving them permission to abuse you. When you later complain about being mistreated, they will say they told you they are not a nice person. And they will be right.
      This is exactly the "Beauty and the Beast" scenario the guest in the video spoke about. If you feel the need to prove to this person that they are a nice person; if you think that if you love them enough, they will change - you are volunteering to be hurt, and to be hurt badly.
      Walk away and start looking at why YOu think a) you have the power to fix broken people and b) why you think you have to in order to be loved yourself.
      This scenario you described is not healthy. In fact, it's downright scary. You need to figure out why you are attracted to rescue projects. I would not get involved with this person. I would say thanks, but no thanks.
