    I've spent years developing a distaste for emotionally unavailable men and friends. I've worked diligently on my self value and reframing childhood trauma (releasing the guilt and shame). Now my stomach actually turns when I discover I'm starting to invest in someone who isn't emotionally open and I RUN. It's not like they've let me in enough to hurt them.... I am my own Mama Bear. No one gets access to my heart unless they value healthy attachment and are skilled at emotional intelligence/connection. Because all of this indepth healing has made me relationship GOLD. My love is earned, not a free for all!!!

      Exactly, you can be in a committed relationship with someone who had closed their heart and does not know how or will not share their inner emotional world. It means they're blocking themselves and other people from their emotional truths and process.

    • @brennam954
      @brennam954 Před 22 dny

      Yes. An emotionally unavailable person is someone who ultimately cannot CONNECT with others on a deeper level. They cannot fully value the other person in front of them for whatever reason, which is why, yes, they can't commit. It can include narcissists and those who lack empathy as well as decent people who just have trauma or low self-esteem. Being emotionally available ultimately means you are capable of connecting with someone on an emotional level, which means you have some baseline sense of self-esteem, some ability to trust, some ability to relate and understand others (having at least decent EQ/emotional intelligence), some understanding of your own wants and needs and feelings, a desire to nurture the relationship, etc. Missing any of these components can make one emotionally unavailable. It's about so much more than just commitment because you can be in a relationship, or hell, even a marriage with someone emotionally unavailable, but it will feel very unfulfilling and the EU person is more likely to take than give in the relationship.

    My father was emotionally unavailable. I can remember 3 times during my childhood I got genuine, positive attention from him, (I'm 43 now), and I lived day to day wanting more and trying to get it from him.
    ALL I DO NOW is chase and give extreme value to emotional unavailable men and survive off the scraps of attention I get from them. It's such an extreme roller-coaster of highs and pain... it only ends when they do something so shockingly hurtful I have no choice but to give up. Which happened about a month ago, which led to me finding Matt on here. I feel like all these videos were made for me! They are mind and heart blowing. I'm learning and growing 🥲

    • @brennam954
      @brennam954 Před 22 dny

      You have every right to feel this way, and hopefully you're working on your self-esteem and boundaries so you can better spot the signs of an emotionally unavailable person in the future and also not get invested too much until they have given enough signs (and verbal confirmation) that they are invested in being exclusive and being in a relationship with you. Maybe you can learn to trust yourself better.
      I know for me, I started to feel the same way dating men after being burned by a few EU people, but as I've worked on my boundaries, I recognized that I put these men on a pedestal and early on knew (on some level) that they weren't fully committed, but I was addicted to the validation and the hope that they would eventually "pick" me fully with enough time. Even though these relationships didn't work out, I know better now that I can trust my gut (because there were some signs early on), and also trust myself not to give so much leash to time wasters like these guys. And ultimately I don't want to feel like a victim. Some people suck, but I also was being an ahole to myself by letting others take advantage. Good luck out there. I hope you don't become closed off forever, but you're not alone in your feelings.

      Yes this happened to me too. It's painful to finally break free and to realise all the unhealthy patterns and gaslighting that happened over the years. And when a large part of that gaslighting was about me being the one who had problems with healthy attachment it's even harder to take an honest look at myself. I don't know what is true anymore sometimes. No matter what I did, if I asked for attention, drew back or tried to express my needs in a healthy way... it never made him capable of true connection. All the therapists who automatically tell you to look at yourself first, don't help either when you try to recover from emotional neglect and abuse. These videos help though, they have a way of talking about it without judging.

    • @stefanienia3914
      @stefanienia3914 Před rokem +7

      I agree with the part of childhood. Especially the early part.
      And for this reason I do a trauma therapy. With bodywork as one important part. Because our trauma is in our nervesystem and in the oldest part of our brain. So it is also important to make new experiences with boundaries and full contact - and keeping the contact, no matter what. Because often there was a break in the contact with the parents ( a lot of exemples . If you ask )
      And in the end it's good to really know, that we will not die, if anybody leaves us ( evolution fear as a baby) But it's great to have boundaries, we need them, we are herd- animals! And our Nervesystem need that connection and the body- contact.

  • @215juliusgirl
    @215juliusgirl Před rokem +15

    I think emotionally unavailable means someone that doesn’t have a deep relationship with you. They don’t open up about their lives, you don’t know what makes them tick really and you find that they know way more about you than you know about them. They won’t talk about sex: what they like or what you like. If you try to bring up, say, “was it hard to move to this country as a teen not knowing the language?” Or “weee you close with your deceased mom?” Or “I’d really enjoy it if we could slow things down somewhat when we have sex. Maybe kiss?” Or idk. And they will respond by not texting for a couple weeks or if in person, one word answers or shrugs. This is emotionally unavailable. Think like a negative EQ score raised in a macho atmosphere.

  • @stefanyrojo6667

And very often we will believe it's the other person doing this. It's not, the wound is here within, they just help us make it become visible. What becomes conscious. If we realise that and manage to handle it without blaming the other person we can grow together, but if the wounds come on too strong, and despite our best efforts we cannot handle it then we push the other person away. Thinking they are the problem. The wound goes dormant again. It's still within tho. So I think it depends on the intensity of the wound and it also depends on our level of awareness about it. All I know is no one is at fault in a relationship and even though it's hard to believe at times we're all already doing our best.

    @Renske0987654321 Před rokem +27

    I want to add something. It can also be that your attachment style makes you inherently believe that you are not worth loving so you can’t recieve the love that they are giving. Being so scared that the natural moments of lesser connection are your fault, and then communicating boundaries is hard because of a big fear of rejection. It can then feel like your partner is emotionally unavailable, however maybe it is actually a sign that you are (or you both are). Doubt in a relationship is also a way to protect yourself from the pain of letting someone too close just to be rejected. Doubt does not automatically mean that they are not good for you. I think the effort and willingness to work on things together says a lot about the compatibility as well

It's humane when you are in dessert and throw you a bottle of water, you won't just take a sip... For me it's because nothing better got my way. I wouldn't let go someone who is great AND feel attracted to him. I do believe in luck very much and in everything. It's the timing, the place, the person. Some people happened to have great first relationships. I don't believe that they had all their issues solved and for that they got the jackpot. I did more than a year psychotherapy but i disagree in many things that they preach. Mostly that you don't need external love and the lack of acknowledgement of the importance of occasions - luck.

    Another insightful video. A BIG thank you to the 4Love Musketeers! And, I would like to share a little acnedote of my own to drive the point home.
    I was crying myself to sleep after my husband of 20 years walked out. The TV was on and I heard this line from the movie “the Perks of Being a Wallflower” which changed my life…
    “We accept the love we think we deserve.”
    WE have more power than we believe. We cannot control how others treat us but it’s our choice to accept their behaviour or not. I made a decision right there and then that I would give myself all the love, kindness and nurturing that I need and deserve. Why would I expect anyone else to love me if I don’t love myself? So, be brave to stand alone when necessary because solitude gives you the gift of knowing yourself to the core and truly loving your own presence. 💕

And he seemed interested too because he kept making conversation. I loved it. I thought this is exactly what I‘ve been missing. I thought I just met the guy I have been dreaming of all my life. But in the end, it was a case of what you yourself call „putting too much weight on just one thing you care about“ and forgetting many other things that matter equally, but which this person can‘t give you. Turned out the guy seems to be emotionally unavailable. Not replying, not answering my questions. Somehow, I was blinded by experiencing one thing I had been missing for so long.

  • @antlove793
    @antlove793 Před rokem +6

    Hi there Matthew, this is Carla from Munich :) No idea if this the way people get to ask you questions, but I might as well just try: It seems that I have lost my spark!
    At this point I am 31 years old and I had several quite long relationships with men throughout my 20s. Ever since I can recall, problems in my relationships only started to arise after quite some time. Relationships failed, but getting into them in the first place was never an issue. Men always seemed to chase me like crazy in the first stages of dating, I never had any trouble getting with the guys I wanted to get with and I never question my desirablility (I know, that might sound cocky but believe me, I have loads of other areas where I struggle with my self esteem to make up for it haha)
    By this day, I have been single for almost three years now and the wind seems to have changed: I have gone out with plenty of guys during that time and I got rejected over and over and over again...even by men who might not fall into the category of guys who drown in female attention. Something is completely off. I do not think it has anything to do with my visuals since I still get invited on first dates and usually guys seem to really dig me and give me lots of compliments when going out for the first time. But some weird vibe seems to be creeping in on the 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th date with a guy... during these early stages of dating I can feel them pulling away more and more with their interest in me slowly dying. The only difference I can identify for myself compared to dating in my 20s is a shift in my mindset, I feel like I start obsessing over guys more than I used to and with each man who seems moderately attractive I feel the urge to lock him down since I just want to get it done, not be disappointed again, not get my hopes up and have them die down again. I want to start a life with a man and maybe I am becoming impatient - I am trying to hide the desperate label well but my suspicion is that guys sense it like dogs smell sausage and run for the hills without even being sure why themselves. Also I feel like leaning back into my feminine, just chilling out and being receiving does not seem to be my natural state any more these days. For example: On dates, when the waiter comes and it is time to pay, I feel the urge to jump the gun and scream: "We'll split the bill!", before the guy can even offer to pay for the both of us. When a guy offers to walk me home, I refuse the offer. It is almost as if I would feel that I do not deserve to be taken care of and I want to lower the effort for the guy, hoping he'll buy at a lower price (which I know, is exactly the wrong approach)
    So how do I get into the position of perceiving myself as the price again? Especially after being rejected so many times in a row, 4 to be precise? My self esteem is somewhere below room temperature and I am stuck in an unhealthy pattern of feeling and thinking. Please, help!!!
    Thank you so much for your great work, keep it up! What you do is of so much value to so many people and you seem extra kind. X, Carla

      You sound lovely. If you try a dating agency. If guys pay to be introduced rather than an app, they should be focussed and invested. Worked for me at much older than you

    Sometimes you don’t know you’ve attracted an unavailable man until it’s too late. He hasn’t revealed to you his full past until after you really start to emotionally connect, and by then, your hooked 🤦🏼‍♀️

    It’s true that it seems as though we see love as a prize you chase after, instead of what you are going to build together as a couple. But that’s not something we do consciously. She gets it when she says we are trying to close a loop. The thing that we think will close the loop is the prize he‘s referring to. That prize is the love you never felt you got growing up. The love you were chasing after but never got is what keeps you going after the emotionally unavailable guy, unconsciously trying to close that loop that you were unable to close as a child, and which was so painful because it meant you felt unloved, unseen, alone. If only you could manage to make him love you and see you, then that painful never-ending story may have an end. A happy end.

    It's quite hard for me because people see me as insecure due to previous self harm scars or that I try to hide them with pretty tattoos. My personality is so much more than how I look but it's hard to find a man that sees this or wants to make an effort to try and slowly see my heart.

    A good clarifier would be what exactly counts as emotionally unavailable because like the person asked; this term gets thrown around a lot in addition to other popular diagnoses in therapy.

    Dr. Bruce Lipton says 85 percent of people didn't experience self-love or self-acceptance, because their parents didn't teach them self-love and confidence at age 0 - 7...The first 7 years are the most important for child's brain to save the most important subconscious programs, that they use in adulthood. The subconscious programs work exactly the same as the computer program.
    So it means the guys also were taught to be tough and not experience some artistic philosophies or whatever, that inspire them.

    is it just unavailable to me or is it something deeper in him when he says I’m emotionally unavailable?

    They might commit, but never give you the access to their inside mind. (to their actual feelings). Or they say they are committing, but in secret are not.

    My story not about men, but about friends. I used to have really lovely friends, but as time passed, I cannot seem to maintain the friendship and I now kinda attract people who are just so off-vibe and quite emotionally neglecting. I just don’t know what to do, I even had my tarot reading session, and then the tarot reader told me that I was somehow destined to be a mediator and therefore cannot have a deep and genuine connection with people as I hope???????? Tbh it is truly devastating

  • @princessd3anna
    @princessd3anna Před 11 měsíci +2

    I always viewed emotionally unavailable to mean not willing ready or able to connect with themselves or others on an emotional level. That’s all. The commitment thing could be a side effect tho. For sure

    • @brennam954
      @brennam954 Před 22 dny

      That's a really good way of putting it. They are emotionally unavailable to themselves, and as a by-product, emotionally unavailable to others. They have low EQ. As a result, they tend to be non-committal, but they can often wind up in long-term relationships and marriages, but those relationships inevitably suffer until one or both parties want out.

  • @mpfree7
    @mpfree7 Před 4 měsíci

    And sometimes it's simply great sex and romance with a very attractive person. We know we "are not supposed to" be with them and they can potentialy hurt us, but we still prefer to experience being around them. Yes, a lot of times these are people who have a lot of choices and a lot of partners and they don't feel the need to commit. A lot of us still prefer to date them instead of a person that is "safer and more stable ". 😉 The ideal situation would be of course someone who is a bit of both. But that is not easy to come across.

    • @hayyyitstay
      @hayyyitstay Před 7 měsíci

      She’s probably just wanting someone to hook up with people without the commitment and vulnerability. Which is stupid. You truly can’t have sex with someone without forming a bond together. And those who are emotionally unavailable are just using people for their physical needs. It’s selfish.
