Those are guys with mommy issues. Grew up with either single/ divorced mother or had a very weak father. They are attracted to those women while hating them at the same time because of the unsolved Oedipus complex. Those that I know have got physical punishments from their mothers and that's especially what contributed to the attraction/ repulsion thing.

They have a name Narcissist

One rule I was taught and have always lived by: _"If a man pressures you, or makes you wonder where you stand, or if you feel confused at all, stand down and back away._* And don't give some emotional speech about it; just simply become less available and step away from that 'whatevership' and do *you.* Go out with other people, get busy doing other things. You teach people how to treat you. When they see you're busy and living life, they may either decide that you're worth getting to know better, or they may not. The point is, you have to put yourself in a position where you're not beholden to their whims, where you are not codependent on their treatment of you to know your worth. Start acting like you know your worth, and when someone starts treating you like the above, add tax!

Agreed. People are complex. Relationships aren't. If they want to be more than friends, they'll say it and back it up. If they don't, then they may be friends. If they can't even behave like a friend, they're not even friend material. And who, in their right mind, would want a deeper (more vulnerable) relationship with someone who can't even be a friend? It's not complicated.

Typical disorganised/ fearful attachment style. Today is my birthday and she has disappeared. I was expecting it. I don't care. I have grown. She can't have me back. Some people have so much baggage that they can't be in a relationship with anyone. I had the same problems, I had trauma and abuse. I worked on myself and healed myself. If unhealed people push you away, it is just a reflection of them, not of you. They'd have pushed away anyone in your position. Keep working on yourself, keep growing. Soon they'll be miserable without you. Not my loss, definitely her loss. Happy birthday to lovely, loveable me. Onwards and upwards!

Im between dates he went quiet on me 3 or 4 days. In my mind it felt like a constant message to me: you don't matter to me. You are not in my thoughts. He would initiate meeting up consistently but due to weekly business trips abroad we met once every other weekend. I told him, I am fine with quality connection over quantity in terms of frequency bc a special connection is rare to find but what confuses me is after being close 3 days no text. Well we ended the connection and he said 'bad timing' and " I'm emptionally unavailable". His last text was 6 weeks ago: allright..next week I will be travelling but after I'm back we can talk". So I went from sad to happy that he wanted to reconnect and fix it together. I replied : sure..no pressure. He never texted me again and I felt humiliated,hurt and angry bc he didn't need to text that while I was trying to let it go.

I want to add that many broken men are unfortunately wrapped with good superficial things except for emotional wealth, which is what confuses many intelligent women. Just because the garbage bag is golden color, it doesn't change whats inside. Prioritizing emotional availability over amazing traits is the most self loving thing a woman can do for herself. Do not confuse familiarity and history with someone with love, love takes a lot more than that. Do not try to fix a broken man. If you can't change the man, change THE man.

Even though I've only seen him a handful of times, I could identify patterns, especially after he revealed his true self. I was very nice to him. I'm happy I remained kind and firm in my beliefs, but it was time to let go, mourn the man he pretended to be, and focus on my mental health and life goals. Ladies, run away from men like this.

I can tell you that being used by a guy hurts like hell especially when the guy doesn’t want to talk about the fact he used you. Not to mention get frustrated when you’ve brought up the fact you felt used.

If you have red flags at any point in your dating relationship ... RUN ... don't walk to the nearest exit. Narcissistic Sociopathic, broken child men don't change, don't work on themselves, because they don't see or believe they are the one's with the problem. You can't "fix" them, you can't heal or help them heal, you can't hold them up enough, you can love them enough, you can't support them, you can't ... anything enough. They will push you so far down a black hole, you may never find a way out. It will be your fault they are unhappy, cheat on you, that it's not working out, etc. It's not worth the turmoil you are going thru or will go thru, it's not worth changing yourself in hopes you'll be what makes him happy. Because you'll never fill that black hole within him (or her). I know ... in almost 30 yrs, the only thing I managed to do .... was to lose who I was & become miserable. I can change me ... but I'll never be enough of anything to fill that void that has forever damaged him, long b4 I came around.

And we wonder why we didn't nip it in the bud early and walk away right? That's because things within us needs healing from our childhood if we are not recognizing the red flags early , setting boundaries and putting ourselves first. Because we teach people how to treat us. The reason other people and situations come along is to be a direct mirror to reflect back to us what needs healing within ourselves. We are accountable for whatever we attract because we emit a vibrational frequency. So whatever we don't want to attract, we have to know ourselves well enough , be aware of our frequency , whether we are in alignment with our true self or not, and change ourselves to become what we want to attract. If we are attracting something we don't like or don't want, that comes from a subconscious Childhood Program running in the background that we are not aware of, there is some emotional traumas that we experienced that we didn't even realize were emotional traumas which created the way we speak and act. It's amazing how to learn that whenever we see another that we do not like it's because it's a trait that is in ourselves. You will not find a truly healthy, aligned and balanced person vibrationally attracting to a superbly unhealthy or unhealed person with deep woundings and manipulation tactics

I agree, you have to leave them, unless they are self-reflected and willing to actively work on their issues. But most of them are hoping that love will heal and fix and save them - this never works out in the long run, it's actually the perfect recipe for disaster. And in the end they'll happily blame it all on you. What I learned from all of this: Don't give your all to someone else. Leave a bit for yourself. Make yourself your priority. You are responsible for yourself and investing in yourself will always pay off. Don't ignore red flags. Trust your gut. When something feels wrong over and over again there's a good chance something is wrong. And never date the guy who says he's an asshole, even when he absolutely treats you like a princess. Take a close look at how he treats other women and people in his life. It's only a matter of time until it will happen to you. Sad, but true.

@@deedee446 In my opinion he's unable to deal with his emotional pain and difficult situations in general. And it's easier to find someone who eases your pain and distracts you for the moment, than actually dealing with your pain and take time to heal. The thing is, even the best relationships aren't always easy or perfect, so sooner or later their issues will come back to hunt them. They are only running away. I wish I could finally let go, but I can't yet. I'm worsening my pain by looking up what's going on in his life. And it hurts that he appears to be somewhat happy with his new gf. They are together for 3.5 months now. I'm sorry to hear you got treated bad. It would be easier for me to let go if he treated me secondary, but he treated me like a princess (unless he was jealous), talked about our future together all the time and said he's going to marry me. Our mutual friends later told me that he was talking about how wonderful and perfect I am and how much he loves me all day long. No one could believe it when he left me and he was crying more during the break up then I did. No one could believe how terrible he treated me after the break up and how he just threw me away as if it was the easiest thing in the world. He's literally acting like I'm dead to him. It hurts to know that he most likely idealised the women after me just as much as he idealised me and that he tells them the exact same things he told me for months.

I always assumed that a person’s actions spoke louder than their words, but when I fell in love with someone who told me upfront that he wasn’t looking for a committed relationship, I didn’t believe him. Why? Because he basically let me move in with him, repeatedly told me he loved me, and we had so much fun together. But he wasn’t kidding, and as soon as he met someone he liked better than me, he was done with me. I don’t regret the seven months we spent together, but it still hurts. So if someone tells you they’re not looking for a committed relationship, believe them, no matter what they act like! Sometimes words speak louder than actions. In my own defense though, I wasn’t really looking for a committed relationship either until I fell in love with him. Ouch!

As 51yo man who just found out I may have this. I had no clue until now. My son's mother was with me five years. We had a child together even. Then one day like flipping a switch she just called it all off and never attempted to fix or rekindle. This crushed me as I had never had that happen before and this was my best relationship ever. I had imagined us being together forever. I have been alone every since. I lost mom and dad both the same yr not long ago and then started getting like brutally lonely which now I believe is leading to depression for the first time in my life. I been trying to figure out why I can't connect with anyone and that when I discovered this avoident attachment type. I took a test that says I'm that type but I don't have alot of the symptoms maybe mine has gotten better over time but still not right. I don't recall any issues as a child other than bullying. Now Im worried the loneliness is gonna kill me literally. I wish my ex could have at least communicated the issue so I could have been working on it on along. I hear it takes yrs to fix. My ex replaced me in under a month and was married but divorced all within a yr. She now has 4 baby daddies two don't even claim the kid. Perhaps we both had issues. I found a young like 23yo girl on here the other day that I believe may also be a dismissive avoident and it is so sad. She just wants a genuine connection with someone but can't feel one she says. I'm starting to think this is a much much bigger issue than we realize. I suspect it comes from my being sent to a daycare. It was just one lady but she cared for several kids. Perhaps she had to ignored my cries and I put up a wall as protection and the wall is still standing 51yrs later. I honestly believe I would still be with my ex had she better communicated and worked with me. I would have gone to counseling she never offered and honestly she wouldn't even speak to me and even held my son from me for a year. That really tore up my son more though since we were close back then and saw each other daily. God help us in this depopulation agenda! 🙏

Never ever takes ownership!! Very childish!! Blames me for everything!

Loving someone who always accuses you of things you didn't do hurts. ALWAYS loving and then always being ridiculed...

Avoidant attachment style - my estranged husband has this and I spent 10 years being patient and thinking I could love him enough… it is exhausting.

He gets them hooked on him and then he keeps them on a string. He lies a lot and is always giving excuses as to why he couldn't call or text them back or see them that night. Once I called him out on always saying he's been "busy." I told him that I had heard a man say that if a guy is always busy, he probably doesn't care much about you, and then he quit contacting me. I believe he's gotten a few women pregnant, too! I'm glad I never got intimately involved with him. He also lies a lot. Thank you for this message. There are many people who could benefit from hearing it! Blessings to you!

It’s really cool to find people who actually want to be better. It’s sick how people really just use people… try to “confuse you” to make you stay. Fk that. Everyone value yourselves and say NO. If it doesn’t feel good, it’s not meant for you and that’s that!

It was really inconsistent. I was so emotionally invested at the beginning and then I got more distant to protect myself. The inconsistency was still there, but it hurt less. I communicated with him all the time and it didn't do any good. Sad it's over, happy I am without that conflict.

Agreed absolutely, and I'll only add that this video PERFECTLY described my ex - a woman. She had a rough childhood and I had a world of respect for her because she'd carved a life out of one of the worst hands anyone has got. However, she was emotionally stunted, partly because of that childhood but also because of bad experiences with other men as an adult. Any attempt to move from the casual to the serious ended in disaster. I found myself giving a lot more - emotionally, financially, physically - to the relationship than she did. I called it off when I realised she was still on dating apps. The gall of that still shocks me, but she's singing from a well-worn hymn book.

They're called borderline, narcissists, and secondary psychopaths. If it's a duck, call it a duck.

Not everybody who's an asshole has a personality disorder. Some people are just assholes. Using psychological terminology sloppily helps no one.

I was this emotionally broken woman. Now I’m just honest and say I don’t want a relationship or ready for a relationship. I need to spend more time alone in my own independence before I even consider a serious relationship. I need to heal.

Avoidant men can pull away, even though they are interested. Sad truth.

I just vetoed a guy. He’s divorced for a year after a 20-year marriage. He told me his ex is a narcissist but what ge described sounds like she just fell out of love with him. In a way he pinned the failure on her personality disorder, no mention of his own behavior and conduct in the marriage. That is a red flag in my book unless I can get the scoop from the ex to verify. He’s 64. However he really behaves like a 40 year old. His ego seems easily bruised every time I offer any suggestions. He still relies heavily on his body, looks, and athletic prowess (he’s a triathlete). I am some years younger than him but I have stopped relying on my looks and body 10 years ago. Now I am grateful to be healthy and mobile. He puts up a friendly gregarious and energetic front, subtly flaunting his triathlon achievements and cars. Unfortunately I don’t place high value on what he values the most. Thankfully I took time to put him at arm’s length to observe and listen. After 2 months I lost interest and permanently friend zone him.

Broken men are usually unaware they are broken.Some men will tell you they need your love.They almost demand it. Then, once you love them, they have NO PLACE TO PUT IT.Then they will try to destroy you.I suspect they are deeply damaged by and unloved by their mothers.The most emotionally needy men I have been with were all doctors.(They find me across crowded rooms ).I've been called a healer, so I think doctors need healers.

The dream

This is avoidant behavior and it is a painful, destructive roller coaster. If they are not in recovery and actively seeking to repair this damage, it is pointless. Don't even waste your time fantasizing about how good it could be. Look at the man in front of you and ask yourself if you can live with him, as he is, if nothing changes. Then leave, because odds are, that change is never going to come and your self esteem will be the price you pay.

I can't believe this spot-on, insightful video popped up in my feed the day after I had to break things off! Last night, I was in painful despair, this morning I felt numb. After watching this and reading many comments, I now believe I dodged a bullet. Lovely man, but his incongruent behavior was messing with my self-esteem. So glad I prioritzed my mental health. Thank you everyone for helping me feel grateful so quickly!

Brilliant, AGAIN !!! "Right on the money"... "When you feel DRAINED after a date"...Walked away !!!

Widowers are terrible news. I just tried dating one and he used me for sex but pretended that he loved me and could finally move forward because he met me. Just as fast as he came into my life, he was gone. He said he felt like he had another child. The ironic part is he was the one getting drunk every night… he was the one who couldn’t talk about emotions. And yet, I was the immature one? He felt like he has another child bc he asked me if I wanted him to make me breakfast and I said okay and he toasted me a bagel? Unbelievable. I should’ve listened to my instincts and that this man was trouble.

I just broke up a week ago w this type of guy. He's so sweet when he's trying to date me, convinced me into relationship but then he turned colder and meaner. I've cried a lot but now I just need to moving on from the damage he caused.

I dated the last type - emotionally childish man. You are spot on. He’s 41, professionally accomplished. Poor thing, probably spent all his time on his career but not on personal dev’t and his relationship with people. But I wish him the best.

Same here! He is the same age. Good guy, fun a lnd sweet but Emotionally childish and broken. Releasing him with love & prayers. I’m glad I woke up at the 6th month and didn’t prolong dating him. I never felt closeness when we’re apart, things are always surface level. Then later I learned he has fear of abandonment maybe from 2 failed engagements (from his soc medposts) which was in public years ago. :(

Nox, you just described my ex. He was a broken man when we met, his ex wife cheated on him when he was young and newlywed, his last gf cheated on him for months before he found out. He lost his belief in himself as a man. He once told me I "forced" confidence on him. I didn't. I just stimulated what was already there, and helped him rebuild it. In return he broke up and went on a banging spree, before going back to his cheating ex gf. This was after testing me to see what kind of abuse I would put up with. It backfired on him and caused him to leave. I told him he got the woman he deserved, wished him all the best, good luck and the life he deserves. The ironic thing is that he told on himself several times, and at the time I was so confused that I didn't see it. Now I do. When you hurt a good woman, you end up with the bitch you deserve. I wish him all the best of luck. He's gonna need it.

This was perfect! Please continue this work. It’s important that victims of unevolved men know they are not alone and it’s not them, it’s the broken man child.

Broken child syndrome

Wow, I went out with a guy, he ghosted me after three dates. He said he wasn't ready for a relationship, by the way, this worked out more in my favor. He seemed more interested in sex than me as a person. I put in a healthy boundary and he backed way up. The red flags and his behavior told me all I needed to know.

This just came at the right time as I was praying for an answer for the behavior of a man I’ve been interested in. Not a bad guy but he is very inconsistent in his behavior towards me. He will show interest for a while then treat me like he doesn’t know me. Most of his friends are married women. It’s very strange and exhausting.

He acted so loving, affectionate, love bombed me and told me I was everything to him but my client found him on a dating app while we were dating and of course I chose to believe him. But then, I found out recently that he matched with another one of my clients while we were still together. He’s never taken responsibility for any of the things he did and in response, he would gaslight me and tell me it was in my head instead of fessing up to the truth and in such denial, he would rage at me calling me names and blaming me for things that came out of left field to deflect from what he was doing to me, which was cheating on me.

Narcissist! RUN!

This is fantastic advice. It is hard to say goodbye to someone like this, especially when you've already made that connection. But it's for the best. Open yourself up to someone who isn't dealing with issues like these.

Spot on, Brian! As usual, you never disappoint! I finally escaped from a bipolar, up-and-down, year-long relationship. This guy looked good on paper but after 8 months, I realized I was feeling more and more confused and unsafe. He always made excuses for his wrongdoing and even blamed me for "making him" break into and search through my phone! Your wisdom has made me wiser and I will no longer wait so long to run from these wolves in sheep's clothing!

My best friend of now 8 years is this man exactly. He had a childhood trauma and hadn’t done the “work” (therapy)…I had to walk away. This video describes him perfectly!!

I ended a 3 year situationship with this man who i realized was a narcissistic compulsive liar and a manipulator... All the red flags were there but i chose to ignore them because of how "confused" i was with this guy.. Im so glad i found this video. It really sums up what he type of a scumbag he really was.

Take as much time as you need to heal from the last relationship. Heal until you are whole! Then, if you choose to do so begin to look for an equal, not a project. You're looking for someone who takes care of themselves and has the capacity to take care of you too. Someone on your level that you can respect and vice versa. Don't fall in love with potential My table is SET and yours should be as well. you got to bring something to my table besides a fork and knife! When you are confident in what you bring to the table, you don't have to beg and chase anyone to sit down and eat! What category do they belong in? Partner, project, parasite or pond? Putting people in the wrong category will mess your life up! Pain prevention is tied to people being properly placed in your life y'all!!

when a person is broken and he/she wants to heal - then there are chances you can do it together. when that healing process is not yet so far that a realationship is possible then it is possibly better for both people to not have one. it is just too exhausting yet - it just still needs time without (false) expectations. thank you brian for this video!!

Definitely explains why I am experiencing the things that I have with this man I am with. I will not reparent, try to rescue, or continue to try to counsel, or reason.. and all I know is I have my emotional health to protect. I love this man and what you spoke about resonates deeply. Thank you. ❤

This was an extremely helpful and enlightening video. Although my relationship with an emotionally broken man is in the past this was the confirmation i needed. Throughout the relationship I was aware of the red flags but I was hopeful I was mistaken. I see it now and I see that men like that are indeed not for me. Thank you!!🙏

God can only fix and heal the life of a broken and lost man. No human being can fix their past traumas except themselves and God.
