    I was guilty of this years ago and as soon as I broke this habit my life did a complete 180. I am now happily married, confident and I love myself wholeheartedly! My femininity shines so bright and my husband loves to take care of my every need and it feels so good 😊

    I notice when i work on myself and do my own thing and make plans with my girlfriends, my man starts to notice. He gets a little jealous and asks to be included in my plans more. He also started taking care of himself better too. He started respecting me more too and wanting me around more. Ive noticed a chage in the last few weeks since i started doing my own thang. Haha. It really does work. The only time i find my man really pulling back is when hes super stressed from work or something... then i baby him a bit cuz he kinda needs it.

    When they’re stressed out and it’s not because of you, oh damn it feels so good when they come to you for peace and comfort. I actually love that and feel honored when he comes complaining about how hard he worked and when I give him tea or massages then it feels like he’s relaxing in my arms after his responsibilities and this relaxation even brings more attraction later on. I think these things are all a matter of balance

    My ex always laughed when I would try to talk to him on how I felt like his mom and it was effecting my attraction to him. He aways just laughed. Having to clean up after him, tell him to take care of himself, not being able to rely on him to do any tasks because he doesn't know how to do them right, like cooking, cleaning, etc. I don't want to be your mom and teach you how to be an adult.

    Getting out of a 9 year relationship w my high school sweet heart. I’ve always mothered him. Starting off in high school, I would clean his clothes & fold his laundry. Then I started rearranging his room/cleaning it. Taking care of his dog by feeding and letting it out. I always thought this made me the ULTIMATE girlfriend. I felt validated by him after doing these things for him but I wish I was taught differently. Now, this is what our relationship has come to… we have 2 kids, yet I feel like I have 3. I wear all the caps, financial responsibility, cleaning, cooking, providing food, etc. I have worried about him being taken care of and I have ignored myself… I feel that this relationship is so far beyond being repaired. I’ve always been a girlfriend doing wifey duties + more. When deciding that I wanted to break it off, he played victim. Everyone feels bad for him because he’s a “loyal & loving man” but that’s not enough. A relationship is so much more than those 2 things. Ladies, if you ever doubt your relationship or feel like you are doing way more than your partner you probably are. Stay strong out here and set boundaries, have standards!

    I agree with not mothering your man, but I disagree with the layout of this argument. things don’t go awry because women lean in. if that’s the problem, then your grown ass man should have the maturity to communicate that with you. the problem is that grown boys think that carrying their weight means providing material support, but not emotional support. many men make themselves emotionally unavailable or emotionally stunted because emotions, in their eyes, are for woman to sort through and labour. many men are looking for mothers! & unfortunately, we often respond by over compensating. so ladies, don’t only stop mothering men, but stop settling for men seeking mothers.

    Same especially if you don't really trust. I'm glad I didn't lean too back, because the more I did, the more it made him feel like he owned me and didn't see me as an equal partner. Goes back to what she said about recognizing if he is worthy being submissive to. I knew he wasn't but I thought if I kept trying to make it work (control) he would eventually be enlightened. 😬 He tried to force submission, ended pretty bad & had to kick his butt out. Though I think that the right person It won't be so much of a challenge to let go of that kind of control and it won't feel like you are losing control by flowing in feminity?

    mmm.. one of the advices I always follow and remember is to just say "thank you" when your partner or a man wants to do things for you. Don't say "I can do it". Let them be the man that they want with you. Just soak in your feminine energy. It's okay to be independent, but not too independent that you make him feel you no longer need him in your life. You can always "suggest" but don't demand. You can give caution, but don't restrict. When meeting men for the first time, smile, be polite, don't leave your manners at the door. My dad always always always reminds us of our manners. It goes a long way and it puts your boundaries in the proper place regardless of whether you know the person or not, he's your husband or a stranger. I have 3 great brothers who are always protective and treat us with respect and manners, that's my yardstick to any romantic potentials.

    A mature man is one that you trust to look after you emotionally and physically without you having to ask. I was actually having this convo with my bf last night. I know that when I go away for extended work trips, that when I come home the house will be clean and will not have gone downhill. He can cook healthy food, wash his own clothes and find different things that need cleaning, can love and feed and look after my dog. Simply - he can fix his own damn shit and I never have to intervene. It’s bliss. I never realised how much I was prone to ‘mothering’ until I met a man who didn’t need it

    This video helped so much. I became a codependent later on in my relationship but the dynamic of it being triggered was from the beginning. He started from within the first 3 months spilling how much he hated his mom and his upbringing. It triggered me to nurture him. His room was a mess, so I would clean it. He was doing laundry constantly the entire week because he would wash clothes, dump the clean onto the dirty and then not remember what was dirty. So I ended up buying him actual laundry baskets, and I would do his clothes because I couldn’t stand his bed not even being somewhere I could SIT. His room was full of trash from days and weeks before I would come over. I low key felt disrespected that he didn’t even have the audacity to pick up after himself before his whole girlfriend would come over. I bought him a trash can for his room and cleaned up. I also bought him a better mattress because he constantly complained he couldn’t / wasn’t sleeping well and he would constantly blame that on me and the reason why he wouldn’t sleep in the bed with me (but he was fine when having sex with me). I tried to get back into my feminine because I truly love being catered to and being treated like a princess, but he despised this. I made the mistake once of asking him, nicely, in his apartment with his roommate “do you mind making me a grilled cheese? I LOVE the way you make them” and I tried being a little flirty. His roommate was around the corner and I didn’t even realize nor did I think it mattered because he was minding his own business and my ex responded “don’t you EVER ask me to do something in front of him again. That is SO disrespectful.” I never once ever asked him to do a single thing for me in his home. Because also, it would be small things like “please cuddle me” “please rub my back” “please pop my finger” jusr small intimate things beside sex and he DESPISED me “asking too much of him.” It threw me out of balance with my core belief as a woman. I cooked him breakfast a couple times because he used to work 6am and I’d wake up at 5am to make breakfast and one day he was PISSED that I even thought about doing this for him. His exact comment to me was “I fucking HATE oatmeal and bananas!!! My mom used to make me this shit, I HATE it!” I never knew this! I was so appalled and heartbroken just trying to send him off to work with a little bowl of oatmeal with protein and bananas and I was cursed out. He shoved it down his throat, livid, then stormed out of the house. I was left standing there, confused and heartbroken. After that, I found out he doesn’t just hate oatmeal, he hates anything breakfast. So I never made breakfast again. Then I tried making dinner and he would eat his roommates dinner Over the dinner I made for him. He put me into my masculine and mother energy with not knowing anything about insurance or even how to create a proper resume. I also was the only one of us who would drive us everywhere (which wasn’t many places except food, literally). I never got to be the passenger princess and the one time I was, he almost got us into an accident. I also planned “dates” he would start fights days or weeks before so we never got to have them. In the end he broke up with my on my birthday. It hurt but the reason was because I wouldn’t have sex with him and also I wouldn’t buy his roommate maple syrup that I “used too much of” from 2020. Wtf? I felt horrendous for being codependent on him, he said constantly how much he hated me and I stupidly kept trying to make us work. Not realizing when someone you’re dating says they HATE you, the first time, you LEAVE. Not APOLOGIZE to them. Yeah. So many red flags and lessons learned. Overall, I think I have a great dark feminine energy. I just had a man that wasn’t at all masculine and he believed the only way he could be a man was by having sex with me. And you know, it’s true. Because he didn’t provide for me, I paid for most of our dates and outings. And he didn’t protect me, I learned how to do that myself. And sex was great but I knew after 3 years….it wasn’t enough. It never was. But I was also sick of being his mother…and caring so much to make us work and he was concerned with doing nothing but playing his game. I’m going to vet men way better from now on.

    Aww girl never blame yourself he hated his mother and you reminded him of his mother by being in your mother energy towards him so the only way he knew how to respond to that was how he wished he would treat his mother, with disrespect while he’s being loved on. Nothing to do with you just a man with issues that you cannot fix and should stay very clear from YOURE too much of a gem and caring for that, us women deserve to be in our feminine energy and receive ❤️

    Okay wow… first of all: what an ass. When he broke up with u, believe me it was a BLESSING. Yea it kinda hurt a lot but this wasn’t meant for you ur whole life, just many many lessons in one relationship to learn. With good sex of course so not everything would be too hurtful for you, u stayed long enough in this bound with him so u could learn major lessons that will SHIFT U INTO THE SKY AND EVEN MORE HIGHER!! Now with a broken heart u will carry this story for ur whole life and transform it into something much more meaningful: love and appreciation for yourself!! Also: love your profile ❤❤

    @@gabbsdy8741 I'm a doctor and early on I had the same mentality as you until I came to learn that sometimes people's mind get used to all the toxic and unhealthy patterns and many times it stems from relationship dynamics from childhood or other relationships and it's until you leave some situations / start working on yourself and educate yourself on these things and/ or go to therapy to get help ; is when many people actually realize how unhealthy their relationships were. Our minds also gets addicted to the drama - the high highs and the low lows in unhealthy relationship and think that is normal and many times this is another reason people stay for long in toxic relationships. and there's a lot more reasons as to why people stay for years with such people.

    I've never been this type. My bestfriend is and I don't get it. From my observation, girls in 1 parent households do this. I had both & so did my mom. We appear attractively "mean" to guys because we tell them "no" & don't bend over backwards for them. My father on the other hand, lived with only his father while his brothers did with the mother. My dad practically begs my mom to baby him b/c of his mother issues. In 1 breath, he appreciates her boundaries but in the other, he craves what he's use to which are girls that broke their back for him just for him to lose interest. Men don't like it but get intrigued when I tell them "no" all the time. Some actually can't take it and literally get mad at all of my refusals. An Islander told me my energy is strong...Idk what that means but I think he meant alluring b/c I get that alot. Ppl give me a confused look b/c I'm sweet but "dark" w/ a quiet confidence at the same time. I pick & choose when a man has genuinely earned my services.

Your advice is so helpful, thank you!!! I am also starting a business to pour this mothering energy into, as well as my son and our home. I can't wait to see how our relationship evolves from these choices 💛

    I love this video! I have it saved ❤though , I think it’s good that there is some balance and equality in areas. This is coming from someone who used to be extremely timid and always attracted controlling and possessive men. Because of my nature and being a proud submissive, I attracted the most toxic relationships where I always being monitored like a child.. everything I did. I’m now on a relationship where it feels more equal in areas but I still get to be submissive without it becoming toxic. My partner and I help each other in specific areas where one of us may struggle and struggle together at times but figure things out. Honestly, this is 100 times better than dating men who wanted to do literally everything for me. TLDR regardless of whether you are the more sub or dom one, there needs to be a balance or else if will be toxic. It’s good to date someone I can call my partner, not my second father (even though I call him daddy at times when I feel like it)

I have ended our relationship a few times because of this but I we keep ending up back together because there is true feelings and love there and if it wasn’t for these issues it would be perfect it’s so hard but it just feels like he doesn’t care about doing anything in life and I don’t want to live my life with someone like that. I wish I didn’t love him it would make it so much easier and yes we’ve talked about this so many times nothing changes
