    I have studied so much about emotional intelligence and it does boil down to self-control. You're going to feel the emotion. It may even be uncomfortable. We all have various triggers. It's not about what you feel. It's about whether you react from a place of woundedness or respond from a higher perspective. Thank you for the videos you do.

    Being too available & too easy is a turn off for most men. Being more mysterious & giving them freedom & space will make them want to be closer to you even more. A woman being too desperate for their attention, too clingy & emotionally attached is too unattractive for a man. It shows weakness & vulnerability. Being a strong & independent woman attracts a strong & independent man. Sometimes, you are what you believe & you do attract what you are. Laws of Attraction. Be free in your mind & free in your Soul, then Inner Peace attracts Positive Energy. When you truly love somebody, you give them freedom & space when they need it. Unconditional love is everlasting.

      It is true, but it's sad that women we are actually in need of security and have to pretend we don't need it, to get a man to actually provide security. We shouldn't have to do that. Men were created to be protectors and providers. Where are their natural God-given instincts. The issues are our upbringings and so many other factors that cause conflict between men and women. I believe egos (pride), lack of understanding and fear are some of those factors just to name a few.

    This is so accurate. Learning to feel and control our emotions is what sets us apart from those who just react to their emotions and then regret it afterwards. Learning to decide how to respond takes discipline and determination but once they become a habit then indeed life improves dramatically - rather than being a soap opera.

      From what I gathered from the videos, in this case this can't be called "suppressing your true feelings". They were not in a relationship yet, and Jennifer would be able to be more open later on (providing she didn't screw the earl relationship, which she apparently didn't). Also, she rightly had self-control on this occasion ! She was disappointed/frustrated/sad when he didn't reply right away, but instead of listening to her emotions and bursting into written invectives of some sort (and he would have left, maybe rightly so), she just left things there, and he wrote back later. Would unleashing her true bad feelings would have portrayed her real self accurately ? perhaps not. Also... 5 hours later is not that bad ! Not everyone wants to be hung on his/her phone all the time (well... you do when you're falling in love but...). I'm sure she felt more stastisfied aftewards than if she expressed her bad feelings.

    @avril.227 4 роки тому +179

    I agree to a point. I agree we shouldn’t act on our intense emotions at the moment, and learn to recognize our own toxic behaviors when conveying emotions to a man.
    However other relationship experts emphasize the value of being vulnerable. That it brings people together. Men like warm emotional women. They just don’t like women who act needy or desperate. Also make him earn this level of trust before sharing your deepest feelings and desires. If something upsetting or triggering does come up with him, use “I feel “ statements. Also make sure it isn’t directed at the guy. For example, a guy makes a mistake and forgets about your date to a concert that you made a month previously.
    You would state, “I feel devalued when my time isn’t respected. You must have mistaken me for someone who will put up with “X”.
    I respect myself so I will not.”
    Then end the conversation and go do something that makes you genuinely happy. If he doesn’t apologize and change the behavior, move on. He doesn’t respect you and no one needs that. No 2 or 3 chances! Set the expectation.

    I have been there and not acted on my emotions. Hearing you recommend how to control one's feelings is a powerful process. I step back because I am naturally an overthinker, which is normal for me. I go over my thoughts and emotions by distancing myself from others to get a reality check. This process keeps me from making regrets.

When I’m angry or upset because he cancels a date because he has to work for example, I just say “ok maybe next time :)” and it work’s ! I then have fun with friends and although I’m angry, he doesn’t need to know. However if he asks if he’s done something wrong, one time was because he was going on about his ex and it was an instant turn off for me. I was honest, I said that I didn’t feel comfortable. Turns out, you can be honest with integrity and they can respect you more! It’s all about self control 100%! Thank you xo

    I don't need to pretend who I am not. If I become emotional and told him about my feelings doesn't mean I don't have control of myself and he has the control. Because whether I show him my good and bad side, if the man is meant for me then he will stay, but if not, then I'll let him go. I can love him forever but if he cheat on me, abuse me and lie to me then his out of my life. Because all I need is a man who is honest and sincere to me and loves me for who I am, the good and the bad side of me. Because I'm that kind of person, when my heart choose to love him, I already accept who he was, is and will be.

      It's not about being detached from our emotions. It's quite the opposite. You are absolutely aware of your emotions and you understand why you want to do certain things because you are feeling a certain way, but you are able to rationalize it and not react in exagerated manner. A lot of people, for example, feel anger, but some people burst out, some people want to inflict pain, others yell, other completely close off and others are able to keep calm and communicate their anger in a calm manner. It's about control, not being detached from it.

      You bring up a good point bc a narcissist is completely detached from their emotional body and will display a calm collected demeanor most of the time which is not a good thing in this case . If you want to know if you’re dealing w a narcissist or someone who just has their emotions in check do this : tell them no. A narcissist will show their ugly side and the mask will slip . A healthy person will accept your boundaries and offer to meet in the middle or consider other options to compromise for the benefit of you and them .
