    There was a story my mom told me as a child, there was a old man and a young boy in the field, the boy ask the man who he should pick to marry. The old man said to the boy, walk from here to the end of this field and bring back the prettiest flower, but you can only pick-it the first time you see it, you cannot pick it on the way back. So the boy went and came back empty handed. The old man was surprised, are there no beautiful flowers? The boy replied there were many beautiful flowers but he thought there would be a better one if he walked a little further until he got to the end of the field and there were no more flowers. And as he couldn’t pick any on the return trip, the boy returned with no flowers. The lesson here is that as we look for better we pass up on people that would have fulfilled our lives. It was a very good lessons for me, it taught me to not look for the best, but to look for what suited me, if the boy looked at flowers that way, he would be able to pick one.

      So pretty much the same as women, then. If a man’s values and lifestyle doesn’t align with mine, he isn’t right for me either. I don’t like the way they’re always talking about men are this way and men need XYZ….like women are just sitting around helplessly waiting for a man to pluck them up? No. He is describing me, too. I can’t speak for all women, but this is the 21st century and we are driven, motivated creators who need support and peace, too.

    My husband and I've been together 30 years, and you know what, it's not long enough.
    I look forward each day to seeing him, coming in the door after work, sorry if this sounds cringy but it's true. We've been through so many things - some bad luck (serious health problems, I got through breast cancer) some good luck.
    I can't imagine life without him ....

      I’m 24 and I come from a family where nobody ever divorced, not even from remote family, so I think I have a mindset that marriage should be “forever”.
      But I’m scared because I feel like nobody in my family divorced only because of different culture (Eastern Europe) or hard life conditions, where being married was just easier.
      While now I live in the West (Spain) and I see people separating in all ages. Everybody is just constantly changing relationships after relatively long periods of time 5-10-15 years together. But I see ppl breaking up same often in their 20 like in their 40. And that just freaks me out, because I don’t want to go through that rollercoaster of falling in and out of love all my life, but I just barely ever see honestly happy couples that really last. 😞

      @@ari_jean some people don’t leave a marriage because of societal shame and continue languish in their mutual misery - just to earn the badge that they didn’t break up. My niece finally left her husband who was abusive and unfaithful. She was determined to stay in the marriage because of the false narrative she was given about staying with one person. So many people torment themselves by tethering to the wrong person. You CAN stay married to the same person if you have attraction, chemistry, compatibility, similar core values and connection. Choose wisely, that’s all.

      Sadly this is true for many men.

It's a pretty depressing lookout. The rest are just single and too scared to commit.

      We fell back in love again somehow and then I moved halfway across the country on her. I needed to give her a chance to get what she deserved, I realized how much I loved her.

    Thanks for this great interview. So many people think that all men just always look for relationships with attractive women just for sex and that they'll keep chasing even after they're in that relationship. Many men and women who operate from a higher place do not seek that. It only comes from maturity and people realizing a higher purpose. Those who keep chasing haven't hit that place yet. If you want a serious relationship, be mature and peaceful and seek this out in others. Don't settle for a wandering eye or flaky person.

      Honestly, I’m 24 attractive women and the men that approach me really do only want sex. I haven’t met any available men that are mature enough to actually desire a committed relationship. It’s true that most women mature emotionally faster then men and are actually ready and looking for commitment at younger ages than men. It’s hard because I don’t want to date a man 10 years older than me who is actually mature enough and ready because we won’t have much in common. Most men haven’t reflected enough about their behaviours to be a suitable partners while women practically start thinking about being a good girlfriend when they’re in middle school.

    The answer to 27:00 is... listen carefully to this one. The answer is because when everything is going well in your life and there is no love, it is because you're not giving that special someone a chance to enter your life. That person needs to know that they provide a purpose.. to feel needed.
    Here is how to let that theoretical person IN.
    CREATE space. Literally create space, create time, create a physical space in your environment for them.. ie, new bedding, a new bed which has room..for TWO, a chair or a sofa a dining area, a table for two, a day in your hectic work schedule, putting down your phone and scanning the room. Make actual physical changes to create space for friendships and love. It's all well talking about love, sex, romance, long term relationships but if you can't find ten minutes of your day to devote or to let alone give notion to the idea of allowing another person into your personal space then what hope do you ever have you creating a wholesome, worthy relationship into your life?

    This guy is too privileged. "Fully loving your life" - many people are not that lucky. I lost my husband to a sudden cardiac arrest at the age of 40. I will never "fully love my life" again. I will live my life, but there is a wound that will always be a part of me. Someone has a dead end job, someone lives in poverty, someone has a sick parent, someone has difficulties that are part of life chalanges. Are all these people doomed to be unloved cause they are not "fully loving their lives"? I found that true love is born precisely from moments of life's struggle and vulnerability, not from that "ideal" moment when we emerge from some sort of hibernation chamber, where we have became perfectly rounded people who "fully love their lives". Cause that's not even possible, it's usually just a facade. Life is a process and a winding road.

      Thank you for sharing your experience. I think sexual chemistry is a very important part of a relationship and it’s starting to get a bad rap being called “limerence” which is something altogether different. Even John Gottman talks about it in his book, The Science of Trust, as well as Stephanie Cacioppo, a neuroscientist who’s life work is in the study of love, writes in her book Wired For Love. Dr Jordan Peterson has spoken on that, too. Having said that I’m not comparing your experience and it’s very different when that’s all some people want is that rush. I’m just saying the element of being attracted where pheromones click isn’t to be dismissed. It’s a beautiful thing and I definitely want that in my relationship as well as all the other healthy things you spoke about. Thanks again!❤

    Don't want to sound cynical, but I suppose getting old(er) plays a major role in men's decision to settle down. It might be hard to admit, to the world that the warrior feels less confident about himself and prefers to bet on one safe horse, but let's not lie to ourselves, that's the reality.

    • @nursekillm

      I believe this is the biggest factor especially with younger generations. I see many men waiting until their 40s (Lewis Howes included) to finally settle down. And they rarely settle down with women their own age by that point (Lewis is an exception here). I have a hard time believing it has anything to do with anything but fear of growing old alone. Call me cynical 🤨 😉

    • @sylvainburri4912
      @sylvainburri4912 Před rokem +27

      I think (I'm a man) that the propension that men have to settle down is inversely proportional to their lack of knowledge about life. Because let's be honest, common content that we find though social medias, movies, etc. teach us so many wrong messages about what life is, how relationships works, etc. So we spend years, if no decades, to learn from our mistakes (lack of knowledge) on those subjects and eventually settle down by our 40's. Also the difference compare to women is that we don't get this biological clock by our 30's that creates a certain amount of pressure most women get disturbed by.
      So in a sense, i agree with you.

    Yes! Making the switch through constant suffering. In the end, the psyche just says enough! It did in my case anyway. I said to myself, almost like waking up and perhaps it was a 'spiritual waking up' of "I don't want to feel like this anymore, I don't want to be sad anymore" and almost the next day I was introduced to someone who is kind, considerate, consistent, loving, secure in himself and suddenly everything just felt relaxed and yes PEACEFUL. No more mind games and chaos or anxiety like my previous relationships.
    And don't forget it's not just the 40 somethings, it can be 60s, 70s 80d and beyond. There's no age limit to having had to learn and heal from unhealthy relationships. It's never too late. 💓

  • @AP-gg7ep
    @AP-gg7ep Před rokem +36

    I'm not so sure this is practically advice. We need to know our value even write it down but it's important to know what you are looking for in a life partner and know how to identify if they actually possess that character. Cuz there are a lot of actors out there. Finding the right life partner shouldn't be a passive action. Don't just watch how they treat you, watch how they treat their family, mother, friends, strangers when they do NOT know you are observing. Ask smart questions like who are your favorite people in your life? Why? If the reason is what they do for them that's a red flag. All this can be done in a playful way too. You NEED to have a plan to vet suitors just like the old days family's would vet a husband for women. Now we got to do it! And it's a lot harder because we are biased when we like someone.

  • @user-ee5om8wy7u

    I think clinging to the whole idea that you have to have a relationship is what makes people feel like something is missing in their life.
    Life should be beautiful at any age. The whole notion that time is running is flawed. Having a sexual partner or a life partner will NOT stop the clock from ticking. Period. Time will run away regardless. So, life will be wasted for sure if the whole time you live while feeling like something is missing.
    But if you accept completely everything that you have, expect nothing more and simply enjoy the present, you will enjoy your life (with or without a relationship). And it won't feel like a waste of time.

He was a little tipsy and had never said anything like that before. But then I learned, about 2 months prior, he was developing a career-type partnership with another woman. So after he told me how much I meant to him, he told me he didn't want to see me anymore and is with her now. I encountered her a couple of times- she's everything he said he didn't want- bossy, controlling, snotty. The exact opposite of me.

Once I had a number of convos with his parents and with him about what he expects in a relationship (kids, wildly different boundaries than I have about violence)...I had to break up our relationship. I cried so hard and so did he, but honestly it was important that we ended that relationship.

At the exact same age as you, I adopted an 8 month old baby boy. He’s 13 now, and the greatest gift I have ever received. If you want to be a parent, you will find a way to make it happen 😊

      I feel my current situation is very similar to yours. The biggest thing I'm trying to do is forgive myself for chosing "losers" instead of focusing on what was wrong with them

      You can still have children in your 40’s. I know a few that had their first pregnancy in their 40’s and I had a child at the age of 43. Dr’s now say it’s not dangerous as we were taught.

      You can have a child your not 50 but the problem is whom do you have it with? And I'm sorry to dampen your spirits but living to old age with no child or decent partner once your parents and other family members pass on is hell. Especially for women. So get out there now but be warned it's not remotely easy nowadays.

    @Lewishowes I truly have enjoyed this interview with Matt and Jay Shetty and just purchased your book....a lot of what you said truly resonated with me and the choices I've made regarding the relationships I've chosen to stay in or end.
