@GrubKiller436

6 жыл бұрын

I've been alone for a very long time and am still very sane. Would you like for me to give you advice? If you want to be sane, you have to have channels of communication coming in and going out. Have some friends. If you can't, then have some people who you don't feel bad talking with. But talk with people. If you go out to places like at restaurants or wherever, make small-talk with whomever you can. I personally can't stand small-talk, but I get why it exists. You may not particularly have impact on someone with small-talk, sure, so it may seem insignificant in that way. But what you are doing is at least alleviating that social interaction that you physiologically need (and probably for the other person as well). So that's the most important: real-life human interaction. Friends, family, strangers, whoever... talk to people. Additional things can include: - reading books out loud - talking to a camera - writing essays - gaining sensible knowledge via the internet, perhaps by direct communication with others, or by watching sensible people such as Jordan Peterson These things will definitely help to retain whatever social abilities and competence you have left. If you want to go even further beyond, then exercise, meditate, and have a healthy diet. Being physically and mentally healthy also undoubtedly sustains mental sanity. And if you're advanced enough, you'll be even more sane than those fat Americans who don't exercise and eat fast food all the time. Good Luck.

I think individuals can become those things through time together. Someone isn't going to be committed to you the first week or even the first month of you meeting them, and as a result of lack of investment, won't bother being disciplined. It's when they have a vested interest in you and are 3-6 months into a proper romantic relationship (after the crazy-all-over-you part of the relationship) that these things pop up. Maturity is the only one you can objectively see without investment.

Anyone can commit at any time. It's a choice, literally a commitment. You could maybe argue it's not common, or "normal", for people to commit soon or easily. But, commitments in the first week or month aren't impossible.

@jagu1143

6 жыл бұрын

Ysonoko they're not impossible, but to me, anyone who commits within the first week of meeting me has flashing red bells going off all around them. This is mainly because I've had a couple experiences with stalkers (like proper, following you home, trying to figure out what plans I have in the future, never letting their eyes off you when you are in a situation where you have no choice but to be around them in work settings, writing obscenely romantic poetry followed by threats when it was obvious things weren't working out), and ALL of them were committed at first glance. My point was that people need a reason to commit to any kind of relationship, and perfect strangers don't have that reason because they don't know what your value is, they don't know your personality, what you have to offer, and because you're not really part of their lives at that point. Commitment IS a choice, but you need to have a reason to commit, that can't be found at first sight.

This is true !!! My husband and I have been together for 12 yrs now we not 30 yet and every day is like a new day because we always take time for us. After kids are asleep we talk about our day, politics, religion and we have different views in politics and religion btw.

Ive spent a majority of my own life in isolation unless it’s looking for a party, I don’t eat lunch with people at work, I do it by myself, I don’t follow people to do things around town, I do it all myself. And it’s no wonder I get more weird as a result, but I just don’t act well in most social settings.

Also, actively listening to my partner and actually putting effort into understanding, made the relationship way more enjoyable 💗💗

It's a bonus to find someone who brings light into your life. And vice versa, giving light into theirs.

Technology has only been a miniscule of human life and he re-literates this, we've been here a very long time and need to realise that it's our attitudes that count.

I think relationships can leave you blind and weak. Being able to live alone and live alone contently is far better than needing to be with someone for unhealthy reasons. You have to find your strengths on your own, challenge yourself, force yourself into seeing your own demons, do it yourself. Then find someone else who can also stand on their own, then come together. You’re then together for unselfish - needy reasons, but rather mutual desire, admiration and respect.

At a time i could take no more of his lies, I decided i deserve to know what was going on. A friend of mine referred me to this great ethical hacking team( Cyberhackingsage@gmail ) who helped clone his cellphone without having to touch the device. My husband was a cheating Narcissist and I’m glad i found out all his secrets and infidelity and how he planned on using this pandemic to get back to me. I got access to his Facebook, iMessage, GPS location , WhatsApp, Call Logs and Text Messages (both deleted and incoming ones) with a remote link to a programmed App on my phone. I’m here in Florida and able to access my husband’s phone even while he was away in Canada cheating on me. Thanks to Cyberhackingsage, now i have enough evidence for my divorce.

Why do some people hate Jordan Peterson? He provides so much value.

As someone who came out of a long term relationship and foolishly attempted to cope out with the loss through casual ones, I can anecdotally attest that they reach their tipping point; aka they're feeble. Isolation as well as avoiding legitimate bonding, as the social creatures we are, backfires on a level I thought it was utterly unfathomable. Drifting shatters your ego, but if you realize your mistakes it enlightens you to the point where you understand how paramount it is to reach compromise. Long term relationships take quite a bit of work. Luckily, for us, men in our 20s, we have the somewhat unfair advantage to better ourselves more thoroughly before our 30s since we aren't fighting against father Chronos as starkly as women do. Despite how cumbersome this may seem to be, to me the upshot is to basically get your shit together. Learn the importance and value of being a responsible adult, find a partner with some akin traits who also makes up for some weaknesses you may hold, and above all else understand that most kinship smooth out this rocky road we call life.

I think people also have a hard time with relationships because making real connections with real people is so fleeting. People are more worried about how many likes they get on a photo versus connecting with people and making great relationships. Social media is the downfall of our society.

People were able to actually communicate in itself now all you may get if that is emojis. And so many people that are supposed to be my generation on their phones don’t even enjoy anything anymore but complain that they are so miserable when they don’t give anything else a chance and continue the same pattern.

What I have learned about relationships. 1. Not fighting at all is a red flag. 2. When she walks in, always be holding a broom.

Great video! Good advice Dr. Peterson! I'm a widow and at 77 find it very difficult to meet men who are about the same age and interested in getting to know each other. Although I'm an introvert by nature I know that I learn much more about myself when I'm in a relationship. And without continuing to learn about myself and another the journey seems less exciting!

He is so calm, wise and very attentive, i love Jordan Peterson

My great aunt wanted to be single her whole life and she was. She was a pleasant, delightful woman with amazing health and humor. She had an amazingly sharp memory. She was a school teacher. She died of old age (101 years) and was healthy and strong until a boy who had the flu attended her church. Who knows how much longer she would've lived if that hadn't happened. She was perfectly sane and happy. She never had children. She never had a relationship at all, other than friends and family. I was inspired by her life. I'm not afraid of the concept of being single forever. I'm currently living alone with my cat in her house - on the corner of two dirt roads in the country. The stars are amazing out here. It's just so peaceful. My neighbors across the dirt road have horses. I have blue birds living in the bird houses in my back yard. There's a tree swing and a water well. I'm not really in "need" of anything or anyone.

KTnarnia that does sound lovely, but there is still some semblance of interpersonal relationships right? With family, and friends or even a pet. That's the larger essence of this, that shunning of social ties usually leads to some sort of deterioration, and it sounds like your aunt also found that through her teaching which in itself allows for a connection to the community of individuals. Romantic relationships are just an extension of the same, and shouldn't be yearned for but also shouldn't be disregarded as a weakness, because they aren't. When done right, they are a great source of happiness and fulfillment, which only adds to the other relationships on one's life. That being said, in a world starting to move towards the individual's ambition, strength stemming from the ability to be without such a support network is vital, if only to prevent loneliness. By support network I speak not only of romantic relationships, but other varying forms of social interactions with those you truly care about.

This is absolutely lovely and I'm happy for you and for your great aunt, truly. Respectfully, I ask this question on behalf of the lonely people that live in big smoggy cities (which could be what JP was thinking about when referring to a lack of a LTR being a "pathway to insanity"): Wouldn't it be fair to say, based on your claims about living in the beauty of nature that you DO "need" nature? If Nature consists of company such as cats, birds, peaceful scenic views, and robust trees, then Nature IS in it's own ways everything and everyone. JP says "one person" is necessary, but "two" is better, and Since nature can be considered as an addition to "one"-self, wouldn't it be more truthful and accurate to claim that while a person can live a deep life of self-love and actualization without another human, they still usually rely the existence of nature as an additional "one" ("partner"). As a result, while they do live a life alone, the justification that they lived within nature is used as a basis to argue for why you don't need a partner, when in reality Nature is functioning as our most fundamental partner that loves us, hurts us, and challenges us to do better. Therefore, it follows that living TRULY alone (such as being stuck in a big grey city) is still a path to insanity, because you justified a person living alone with the idea that Nature soothes that loneliness and makes it worthwhile, EXACTLY like a human partner. While nature is observed individually, the existence of it has always been mankind crutch to supplement what nature has already made, a partner that you can love, play, and grow with. Sorry for the long comment, as a philosophy major, this is just an epiphany I had.

You may say everyone is already in relationship, and this of course is true. However, in meaningful terms, in terms of your experience in the world, it is what you can do with another person that will establish the depth, the power and the meaning of your relationship. That is why you must recognize both your inner and outer needs and learn the discernment necessary to see if another is compatible in meeting these needs. This discernment cannot be done completely at the outset because a large part of your discovery in relationships comes through participation with others. Yet at the outset, certain qualities and features must be there. From Relationships and Higher Purpose by Marshall Vian Summers

I swear jp is just perfect for me in the fact that he gives you easy to track references to help you set goals. For example that ending was absolutely perfect because I’ve always felt awkward about how much time is too much time around someone and how much is too little and he just gives me an easy reference of 90 minutes to spend on actually getting close personally and catching up on each others lives. And the rest I’ll just continue to play off of what’s goin on in the flow of the moment

Thank you Mr. Peterson through your teachings I have met someone wonderful and we are simultaneously attempting to achieve the goal of happiness by coinciding. Each moment with her is magical but I'm preparing for those that will differ.

At 6:37. Guy in the hat. You are spot on. It IS difficult to meet people and form some sort of relationship bond. You can be doing many right things, have many right things in your life, even have people interested in you. However, if there is no chemistry or physical spark, if you would, it is very difficult. When guy in the hat says, “I wouldn’t want to be dating right now.” He is right. I say survey and number of people on the most popular sites and you will find real dissatisfaction from both men and women. I have a reasonably good and safe life, a lot of the bells and whistles most women want, and still I can’t land a relationship for the life of me.

A society based on instant gratification cannot and will not maintain it's long term commitments. Therefore, as technology advances, society will, on a fundamental level, collapse; most specifically, the family unit will erode and this will lead to many other societal ills.

This is good stuff, thanks. Not rocket science really, but like a lot of his talks it validates what we already know and feel.

this segment absolutely blew my mind

The best advice I can think of that I wish i'd thought of when young is to take an accredited basic psychology course. It will help you to understand yourself and what YOU need first, and also help you pick out those who are putting on an act - which most men and women do at first, and some can keep it up until after marriage a couple of years along the line. Still, there will be tells and a basic psychology course will help you spot important things you might otherwise not notice or may dismiss.

I don't think there is any book that has such profoundly life-changing potential for most men. Anytime a guy I know decides he's sick of his pathetic romantic life, the first thing I do is tell them to read it. That said, I think it has to be read in conjunction with "Way of the Superior Man" by David Deida. The Rational Male explains it in a biological/evolutionary sense, and WOTSM provides the spiritual/emotional context. Much like the masculine and the feminine, yin and yang, those two books are two complementary halves of the whole.

You have to look for love first in a relationship, without love is almost impossible to live with someone, so again is very heart to find the right partner because your heart doesn;'t feel it, doesn't connect so at the end the heart decides the rest, but with love you become very tolerant.
