Lesson: When you play hard to get, you FORCE him to work for it. This creates the sense that his efforts are required. But once he gets you, there's no FORCE anymore, what do you think will happen? However, when you don't play hard to get, but you don't make it easy either, you ALLOW him to work for it. This creates the sense that his efforts are appreciated, although not "needed" by you because you can do without him. So the real lessons are: 1) 5:10 Be able to do without him. You must believe that you are enough for yourself. 2) 6:50 Want him, but don't need him. 3) 8:35 ALLOW him to work for it. Don't take away all the obstacles to make it easy for him to love you. Many times, the obstacles/stakes/risks are what made the relationship desirable to begin with. 4) 3:00 Show him your standards. Don't overcompensate and don't take any BS! Make him less important when, and stop giving what, he takes for granted. 5) 7:10 When you get him, don't suddenly make your life revolve around him. Still maintain your independence. Thanks Brian!!!

I don’t know about other people, but I find it so exhausting to play games, playing hard to get and so forth. I would like to be myself and be appreciated for being a giver. I don’t mind repetitiveness, stability. What is boring for some, having a ready meal at the end of the day, good old cuddles in the evening, doing stuff together and sharing a vision… give it to me every day and I’ll never be bored. But no. It seems that you need to behave like a narcissistic monster in order to be respected by others… Am I the only one who finds it so EXHAUSTING, I wonder..

@uzziahplays1159

Exactly. They don't know what love is. People make it seem like if you aren't traveling around the world then you need to replace your spouse. We marry for love. They don't see the difference between a covenant, sacred before God and a boyfriend/girlfriend relationship. If your happiness and ability to stay in a marriage is dependent on whether or not you get to travel, you might as well just stay at the boyfriend and girlfriend level (unless you marry a person who emphasizes everything but love, too) because marriage is about love and companionship. This is not 'self-knowledge' because it originates from God's word. Therefore its God's knowledge. God's ways are not mans ways.. God made Eve to be Adam's companion. His focus was on making sure Adam was not alone. All of the other stuff is extra. Paul said it is good to be content in whatever state you are in. That means happy. If you can't be happy with the love itself, of course you are not going to appreciate your spouse. If a person who marries you makes you feel like you are never good enough, they don't love you. They may say you don't cook enough, but then when you cook, it doesn't taste good enough (even if it truly does). They may say you need to work, but then when you work, it won't be the right amount of income. If you get the right amount of income, then you need to lose weight. Once you lose weight, then you need to fix your attitude. Once you fix your attitude, then you need to find a hobby. Once you find a hobby, then you need a purpose. Once you have a purpose, then you're getting old and need to look younger. People like this are never satisfied because they truly aren't in love with you. Companionship has nothing to do with all of the other things mentioned above. So if you find someone placing an emphasis on the other things, they want pride, trophy, luxury, not love and companionship. To be honest, unless you are that trophy, they likely aren't going to fight for you. But even if they enjoy their life with the trophy they want after they've moved on, they will eventually pay the price for breaking the covenant they had with you. And to be frank, most of the time that trophy won't be enough because there is always not just a few other women that can surpass the trophy in every area (good and bad), but millions more who are way beyond her, many of which he will eventually come in contact with. This is why Paul said its better to not even marry. You could potentially marry one of those people who will keep you distracted as you try to fulfill their commands while they play God. They will never be happy with you even when you meet all of their expectations because they're always looking for the next best thing instead of cherishing the moments you both create uniquely together in even the trivial things in life as husband and wife. That's the companionship, not all the bells and whistles.

And now that he’s back home he’s not really making an effort but yet texting me good morning beautiful. I’m tired of men thinking that that’s enough. I value myself more than that. And I deserve better. So I am the one who has backed off and decided to start dating again. I know I deserve somebody that doesn’t have to think twice about loving me or caring about me.

I will do the same cause these guys have similar dailogues😆😆😆

I am totally guilty of being the one who made him my everything. Lack of attention would kill me. I confessed my feelings to him and now I am being taken for granted. I am very unsure of what's going on. Not that I am a demanding or a needy girl, all I wanted was him to take out at least 5 minutes a day to talk to me. Or if asking him where the relationship is heading towards sounds demanding - then perhaps I might be one. Clearly I am being undervalued now, and if this continues to be the same I am left with no option but to leave him. I like him a lot but I cannot stand to be with someone who doesn't value me, who isn't afraid of losing me. Edit - Well... easier said than done. I always knew I had to break up but Goddddd it was always so hard. It always felt like cutting a piece of myself forever. And so I could never do it, until this month. 15th of September, I broke up with him. It was quite hard for me in the beginning but now, 15 days later, I find myself in a much much better position. I still think of him and it still makes me feel a bit upset, but I'm glad I didn't enter into the depressed mode. I guess I move on pretty soon and that's a great gift. I'm glad I stepped out of such a relationship, which would never keep me happy and fulfilled. I hope you all girls don't take so much time like I did and end the bullshit if it doesn't make you happy and keeps you worried, thinking and confused all the times! It's just not meant to be. PICK UP THOSE GODDAMN RED FLAG LADIES, THEY ARE DROPPING THEM FOR A REASON. Don't keep ignoring them and fooling yourself. Ps - This was my first serious relationship, and his nth casual one. Update (10 months post breaking up just in case it makes you feel any better lol because I understand how terrible it feels to be in such a toxic relationship and to move on) - I know I said earlier that I was moving on pretty fast but lol nooooo. It took me some good 5 months to come out of that zone, to actually stop feeling bad about all that went wrong. And all those 5 months, let me tell you, I was at my lowest, hit the rock bottom. I was at my worst, alone, and sort of depressed. I was in dark, but you know what? I was positive. I knew good times and bad times do not stay forever. I was inside a dark tunnel and although I couldn't see the light, I knew all I needed to do was take baby steps, one step at a time and the tunnel was definitely going to end someday. Ladies, right now I'm in the best state of my life. The experience has changed the entire trajectory of my life. Never been this happy, this internally satisfied, this positive, this spiritual in my entire lifetime. And so you know what, the experience only strengthens my belief in the fact that - "Everything happens for good". You always know what the right thing to do is. All it takes is a little courage in that moment. Please trust your instincts, and most importantly - act on it. Women have a strong 6th sense and you already know where this entire thing is heading towards. You take the charge of your emotions, your feelings. Don't let them control you, dominate you. Take the situation in your control. If they truly love you, they fear losing you. Otherwise it's just one of those 'to be doomed right from the beginning' relationships (just like mine). Also do not fear not being able to fall in love again. Don't romanticize the idea of "I once truly loved someone and now won't be able to love anyone anymore" just like they do in those movies, books and songs. Be open to everything that comes to you. When you are at peace with yourself, when you are in love with yourself, the right thing will definitely come to you at the right time, and the negative ones will automatically get rejected. There is no such thing as one true love, or the one and only. You'll fall in love again and again. And everytime that you fall in love, it will only get more intense, more pure, maturer than the earlier one. It gets better with every experience. So be grateful to everything that comes into your life, and for everything that goes out of your life. Nothing will be there forever. I do think about him sometimes, but I don't miss him anymore. I don't feel bad anymore. I am grateful for everything that had happened. Not that I am letting him enter into my life again lol (once gone is gone forever), but I don't hold any grudges anymore. I am at peace, and this is really blissful. Update - 4th October 2022 This man came back into my life again, in April 2021 (probably right after my last update lol). I was wrong about having moved on lol (and so fucking embarrassed right now but I'll anyway share 🙈😂) I hadn't. And I let him in, again. Biggest mistake. He fucked me over again. 9 months later in November, he breaks up. 3 months after breaking up, March 2022 - he comes back. 3 days later, he says he's changed his mind. I was so fucking done with him I had to write him a harsh letter and block him from everywhere, changed my city. He fucked me real bad lol. Went through everything again that I was feeling 2 years back, even worse this time. Started smoking, alcohol, hoed round mindlessly, went to astrologers, therapy and what not. I was 19 when I had met him and I'm 22 now. Still dealing with everything but at least I've left no doors open lol. I loved him way too much, I would never have been able to leave him even if it meant sacrificing my own happiness and needs just to be with him. I'm glad he did it, and kept doing it again and again until he left me with no option but to shut him away from everywhere. This time, I promise, I truly am in a better place. :) Update - December 2023 - We got in touch again, went on and off for the entire year. I am disgusted at this guy. He is never going to change, he is going to remain the same forever. This time I am changing my phone number for good. I don't want him to contact me ever again in this lifetime.

No need in staying some where you are not appreciated and don’t waste your valuable time waiting around! That’s where women mess up and the man is no dummy in that aspect. He knows she’s waiting on him. If he doesn’t make you feel loved and cherished, step away. It may hurt for a while but your worth and happiness is way more important then him dragging you along!

Was in such relations. Now after brake up and time went I see how toxic relations that was thinking that I could finish all that crap much earlier. Well it's a lesson but now I see much clearly what it was and can finally value myself

How to quit in a realtionship?

Allow him to work for it 😉

Very true if a woman is confident to walk away from the relationship anytime the guy gets scared

I’m cool with all of this, it’s just getting over the emotional part. If I could simply turn off my feelings, then I would be great!

Yes, know this but it's the feelings. You cannot just turn off like a switch. I'm not a robot

"Don't make it too easy, allow u him to work hard." in short, don't rush, let it work out a more natural way as much as possible. 👍👍👍

Shortly, we should never give on our own life and happiness and make someone the center of our happiness. Instead care of our precious life and allow things to happen naturally. Then only what is good for you will come, relationships will evolve and balance is restored :)

You literally described me. When I got married I literally felt like I gave up my identity, now I must reclaim the strong independent woman I am.

It was my mistake, I was taken for granted, and moreover not only he didn't say thank you to me but started gaslighting me that I'm not giving him ENOUGH!!! I am much happy with myself now, you should love yourself at first sight , firstly. When you don't love yourself people treat you like you're dust under their boots. Thank you, Brian 👏👏🔥💞

Very good, my dear! I’m glad you see your worth! I get very pleased to see strong women stand up for themselves by walking away and leaving the manipulative jerk alone!

You just summed up a year of therapy after 30 years od people pleasing due to having been abandoned as a baby. Your videos are amazing and I’ll treasure your words. Thank you, take care

That was me. Just sitting there always speaking my mind standing my ground and looking back things got worse. He got so Lazy, overwhelmed and Fearful. That he let so many things and people come between us. Instead of talking to me. I lost him months before he actually left. But what I should have done was to shut up, fall back and enjoy my Life, give him space and to Fall back. But I kept rowing. And believe me...it costs.

"I'm about to go wax my horse" priceless :-)

He is a good prince if he fights for his princess. ☺️

"I am about to go polish my horse...." love Brian's humour and his advice is not to be sniffed at either.

This is hard to accomplish during a lockdown. All my interest and hobbies are cancelled 😭

Regarding lockdown... I'm in Melbourne, we can't go 5 kms from our houses and I'm working from home but I'm having a great time! I've got a new excercise routine I've been experimenting with the best strategies to lose weight and I've found the right one so I'm kicking goals. I'm educating myself using KZread clips and realising my value. I've discovered that I am enough so I've gone no contact with my disrespectful alcoholic partner. He took me for granted and I'm realising now that I allowed that. I'm monitoring myself-talk and not letting me 'beat myself up'. I've not been this happy or relaxed in years. This is possible in lockdown!

It just seems like it comes down to having self worth and self value. Realizing that you are worth being valued and valuing yourself. And surrounding yourself with a community and things in life that support that belief.

This is so true and I didn't even know this was a thing! I tend to give my ALL to someone I love and will sacrifice my comfort and wants for making others happy. I felt like my needs weren't met. He would ignore me and rather play video games or hang out with his guy friends. I though perhaps I was being too clingy so I backed waaaay off. I always initated text messages and said good morning and ask how he was but he never responded until late in the day. So I decided not to text at all. I purposefully ignored and gave a time limit of when to respond instead of IMMEDIATELY. And he is now actually paying attention to me! It confused me so much. Then I realized he was taking all my love and sacrifices for granted. It was when I became distant did he fear losing me. I just hope this isn't a constant thing :/

If the connection is really there, it doesn't take games to keep it alive. - though this is really good information for those relationships where the connection is not strong enough to sustain a lasting level of respect for each other.

so True.....i made it too easy for him. Lesson well learned. Thank you Brian :)

Me too, let's hope the best for the best of us and even for those who are trying their best and deserve it.

I love this guy! I love his sense of humor and his down to earth, wisdom and advice. Thank you for what you do.

You're right. Everything you said is very true and I think that the more we start to love somebody the more we love to be with that person and sometimes we make the mistake of just becoming too available because we just love that feeling we get when we're with that person so we tend to spend way too much time and that actually makes a man value you less .I think that it's important for us to have a balance between having our own time and time with our partner.

Excellent advice, once again. Your explanations are concise and direct, with humourous, silly analogies. I've followed your strategies. They work for dating. I stopped doing more, while he did less. I didn't get upset or complain, nor let resentment build. I just acted fast, and stepped back. He has consequently stepped forward.

@SamElle thats why you are here to learn..listen to brian teaching..learn that you deserve the best in any relationship..it seems hard because most times you meet douchebags but trust me there are goodguys outthere...Focus on being a wise young woman,you will attract the right man..from your age you are still very young,never make having a relationship your topmost priority ur great achievement..you have so many years ahead of you bu God's grace..Invest in wisdom and knowledge,improve yourself on all levels mentally,physically,spiritually(know your identity in the one who created true,God)otherwise and watch your life attract the right people like a magnet.

I did this already. The thing is if he loves you and you let them know you are not planning to stay if he's only giving you the bare minimum efforts it will wake him up, he will keep thinking about it and will get scared of the idea of losing you. Then they will fight for you. Honestly, this is a case to case basis depends on how he value your worth. Some men knows exactly your worth but will still try to take advantage of you. Weird.

guys definitely take me for granted but also my fault for letting them get away with it

I think I'm gonna totally act on that. My date (for one year) doesn't even feel the need to label our relationship. Maybe he'll feel the need to, when I'm not coming over for the weekend if he asks after Wednesday. If he doesn't secure time with me at the beginning of the week, I'll have my weekend booked. May it be girls night, another date or simply doing something to advance my career.

Its been a year and he doesn’t feel the need to call up a Relationship, Remember if he has the milk why he would need to buy the cow ? He is playing with you and probably he is waiting for another date to start a relationship with al the labels , it’s been too long of waiting I think you are totally able to meet other guys and have boyfriend . YES leave him and I recommend to block him from social media right away. Do not hurt yourself in any way overthinking of this situation with him.

@@acr29 there were always reasons for it (long distance, he's ten years older than me, I didn't want a bf during my exams). But you are right, I have to stop giving him boyfriend-benefits. I'm emotionally detached enough now but I think it would be rude to just block him.

At the end of the day we all must live out our destiny We have much less control than we like to imagine we have If we are to have a loving partner, it will come If not, it will not Rather than “looking for love”. Express love If Life finds you worthy love will find you Enjoy each day for the beauty it brings It passes so very quickly

U r 💯 correct iam one of the woman who left my career for him but couldn't get him I finally taken for granted

What a great man you are, thank you lots. It is very appreciated from people like me to be able to watch and gain valuable knowledge like this. Thank you, may I find the perfect man for me and may god bless you and may you live a long and blessed happy life.

God bless your mother! I like your real name better ...much love and sopport!

My ex tried to fight for me though until it became obsessive 😩I’m glad you’ve done this. As there is a huge difference between doing it out of love and out of obsession. You are the god of dating ❤️

My ex ALWAYS took me for granted until I walked away. I finally got fed up and gave him the boot. When I met Ed, I had worked on myself and felt so much inner joy. I think he was attracted to that and intrigued. we've been dating a little less than two months, so we'll talk about that down the road, but he is just wonderful and treats me like gold. It's so nice ✨✨ self esteem ladies, that's the key. ✨💖✨

Surely if you're both into each other you work together and make it easy for each other .

Thank you for your content. Sadly, he has the need to be right, be unaccountable and incapable of seeing things from another's perspective in real time. Using your advice, I quit taking it personally and focused on my value to me. Consequently the last time this happened, I calmly walked out of his home with no anger but with a definitive statement that I do not need this "situation". When I did not reflect his behaviour, owned my own value for three days, he doubled down on his therapy commitment, has altered his alcohol intake immensely and offered to go to couples counseling. It is the way of fighting for our relationship a/k/a "couple-bubble" that allowed him another chance with me. Brian Nox, your calm demeanor, logical approach and considerable insight has helped me a great deal. I am a happy subscriber grateful for your presence in my life.

I love this, Brian! You hit the nail in the head here. Keep these videos coming.

Yep. This is why my lazy boyfriend is on a break right now. And that poor dude even forgot to ask for what day we should end the break...

My husband of 12 years is not a bad guy and I'm not a bad woman. We are divorcing. I require way more attentiveness and most days I need proof that even cares/respects/loves/needs me and I will never get that from him bc he doesn't feel those ways about himself. He will never treasure me while is battling SEVERE self hatred/guilt/unresolved physical and emotional abuse before we even met. He has to heal himself for a while, but I refuse to keep putting myself dead last on his to do list. He is like an elephant on my chest every single morning and my bones are snapping. He has serious health problems as well which is why he is here, (and had to dump his gf of years when I found out about her) bc he loves me as his nurse, but not his wife but too selfish to let go. I have to focus on me now, and I have and I am feeling pretty good about it

Such great advice. I’m in a new relationship and I am leaning back and letting go of the Need for the relationship to work out. The amazing thing that happens is that the man leans in and makes more of an effort. As he does this, he creates more value for me to him. Men want to work for their women. Once I truly got that and quit trying to control situations, it got So much easier. Thanks Brian! Your info is pure gold!

I can be guilty of this, I'm having to dial my feelings back because I know it will make him complacent. It's really hard because guys, in my experience, go full throttle when they first meet u, then when they know 'they have u', they suddenly dial completely back. It's a game, a dance, one I've lost before,this time I'm not going to, because this time I believe he really is the one

Its fun watching you explain things, you make me laugh, giggle, and be priceless! Thanks Brian, u r awesome 🙂
