    I will break my own heart if I just walk away from this friendship, he is such a good person, but after 18 months we should be somewhere together and we just aren't. I keep hitting the same wall. THANK YOU ASHA FOR BEING SO CLEAR. I am twice your age, I should know better! I just got comfortable and thought one day, maybe one day, he'd wake up and see that what we have is worth investing in for the future. For me it is, for him it just isn't. I'm so hurt and feeling rejected. He's just not the right one for me, I need to let this friendship go and seek what it is I really want with someone who wants me just the same. My heart is breaking. I can hardly finishing typing this because I can't see through the tears.

I have a piece of advice.. ask yourself this.. (metaphorically speaking) would you put so much of your investment into something that gives you a temporary energy? Like rehabbing a home , making it luxurious but end up putting it out on section 8?... believe me when I say, invest into what is being invested in you.

    Guys pull the sympathy card to elicit responses and guilt trips to emotionally play us and it’s beta. Clean breaks and “dropping the mic” is the best strategy when you’re not fulfilled.

    Giiiirl you're a blessing to me! I ticked all these boxes and it's sinking in that I'm playing with myself here. This level of confusion and overthinking is not acceptable, at MY BIG AGE! No more. It's over, sis. All the women in me are TIRED. God bless and thank you 💕

    This video is the voice of intuition, all the things it tries to say. I have learned a lot in life and I am saying it, she speaks the truth. Why do we as women make ourselves monogamous to people we aren't in relationships with, it's better that we see other people and take off those blinders that causes us to only see them. Unless they always shower us with attention and love, what are we doing?

    I love the analogy with the square and the circle. It's also pretty comforting, because it shows that it doesn't necessarily mean you did something wrong, often it just means you're not compatible and someone else than him is meant for you. There's nothing you can do about it.
    I'm 23 right now and only had once a situation where I initiated the contact to a guy that I liked who also flirted with me. We went out two times (nothing intimate happened, just talking), but then he told me that he's not looking for a relationship right now because he still has feelings for someone else that are pretty complicated. And that he's pretty flirty by nature.
    So at least he had the decency to tell me a direct reason and open up about his current situation.
    But I was still hurt because I liked him a lot.
    Naive that I was, I made the mistake that I wanted to stay friends with him, so I asked him if he'd like to hang out one last time before he leaves to his semester abroad. I guess I thought that I would be okay with just being friends, because I just wanted to see and talk to him one last time. I regret thinking that way.
    What happened? On the same day we initially planned to meet, he texted me and wrote that he'd like to "cuddle". I replied "Well you're still in love with someone else, so I won't go any further than really just cuddling". And then he suddenly bailed. Yeah.
    I mean, I guess I still dodged a bullet, because right when I made it clear that I won't sleep with him and that I'm not really comfortable with being intimate with him, he didn't want to see me anymore whatsoever. So who knows what would have happened if we actually met up one last time. But it still hurt like hell. It was an important lesson about guys and dating that I had to learn and your video confirms this so well.
    If he's interested, you'll know. You can show flirty signals, but still let him come to you. If you're the one who always has to initiate, something isn't right. You shouldn't even feel like you have to initiate in the first place if he's actually into you. This is the advice I'm going to follow from now on :)
    Not that I resent men, not at all, but next time I'm seeing someone, I'm going to be more perceptive and if he says he's not ready for a relationship (with me), I'll believe him and just let him go and walk away, even if it hurts.
    Why would you even be interested in someone who's not interested in you? I need to get this carved into my soul so I won't ever forget this mindset.
    There are so many people in my life who love and care about me and I didn't really have to run after them and convince them that I'm worthy of being liked.
    If you already feel like you constantly have to prove yourself to him that you're "worthy of his love" so he'll eventually be interested in you one day, it's already all wrong.
    Great advice, Asha! Even if you often take the tough love approach, I can tell it's because you truly care about women and their broken hearts.

    I think I personally have grown a lot through this channel and through some others that now some of these videos actually aren't even me anymore. Like I actually find videos where it's stuff I did way back when but I can't relate to now. There's some that I still have mistakenly done and this channel helps me pull back into sanity. Some of the videos I watch just as I don't know some sort of review. Thank you for your huge contribution in my growth and many other women's.

    Hey Asha! I am one of your OG Angels! When I started watching your videos, I was a pick me and the things you would advise against would make me angry because you were low-key speaking to me in every one of your videos and I still subscribed to your channel. Almost a year ago, I made the decision to take myself seriously and started applying your advice to my life and now I feel so much better about myself and I even worry when you don't post a new video because I know it will change my life in one way or the other. Thank you so much for these relatable videos. I see myself in all your videos and now I don't get mad at you advising us, I apply the change where it needed and continue working on being the best possible version of myself. I am a beautiful, intelligent 20 year old from South Africa and so happy to be part of the A-team

    Even though this video seems more for women, I felt the need to comment because a lot of what was said here has applied to me and I've gotten the same treatment from women. I've gotten the same "I'm not ready for a relationship (with you)" so many times only to end up seeing them next week, heck, even sometimes a day or two later with someone. I'm in my late 30s now and I just got that response about two months ago. The reason I stumbled across this video is because I needed to remember and get through the rejection. Whoever needs to hear it, I know it hurts. But you can't make someone want you who just doesn't want you. Let them go. Work on yourself, keep talking to people, don't let it hinder any progress you've been making and keep taking steps forward. But you have to let them go. If you're like me, you've cut people off before or simply let them drift off. It doesn't get easier, I just learned to handle it a bit better.

      How do you not know if you like someone? It’s easy to tell. You can’t wait to see them, talk to them, you feel happy when you’re together, you want to learn everything about them, etc.
      Wanting validation is all about your ego and is selfish. You want to feel wanted, admired, etc. it has nothing to do with him as a person but what he can do for you

    Glad I seen this video. My ex and I just ended our first real relationship which lasted for two years and a half. It hurts me so much and I would go ghost hoping that he’ll miss me but I don’t think he does. The last time I seen him, he wouldn’t let me go through his phone and he told me he was trying to hurt me because he thought I didn’t care about him anymore... I don’t understand how men work 😑 if you want me back all you have to do is show me, not pretend to take someone on a date to hurt my feelings

    Ok this video angered me on so many levels. Reason being I have been in this situation before. I have done this and it has not worked, like I ghosted this guy for a month and then I come back and this dude was like hey how have you been and I was like dude did you not even notice I was gone? So ladies take it from someone who has done this, it is not for us it doesn't work ok it's not in our nature we can't do it cause all that happened is that I ended up looking like a damn fool! We have to learn to get up from the table when love is no longer being served.

    it is so amazing to hear all these as a woman almost 29 and been there it all. did all of these for guys who would NEVER. EVER change and I'm thankfully at a point I am so financially and even emotionally enough for myself that at this point, I only have strict standards for the one that will be strong enough to match them and say "I'm putting in the work, I want you"
    cause, listen, I have played all the games and did everything for those that weren't worth it, and I'm worth the best with everything I am waiting to offer in return.
    I wish every high quality woman a man that will match him.
    amazing video, Asha!

    You cba always speak up if a man treats you nasty, you don't need to be his gf, I am convinced.
    Just using feeling statements and putting your feelings out there, like feeling confused, upset or uncomfortable. That's feminine and also puts your boundaries out there. And if he ignores that, we'll then he is really not a good fit.
    What do you think?
