      gracielas galaxy - Sorry to hear that. Every reading I’ve seen or had has said she’s coming back. It’s prolonged my healing and moving on by months and months. And then I got addicted to them. Starting to wean off them now though. Extremely dangerous. Hope you’re ok 🙏💙

      The Healing Heart oh my god it’s so funny to see this comment! I totally got addicted to watching tarot for like six months and I’ve just made myself stop. EVERY ONE of them constantly says, “They’re coming back...they’re thinking of you all the time.” And even though I didn’t really believe in it, it totally kept me stuck obsessing on my ex. And now I found this video 😆 🤷🏽‍♂️

    12 Signs It’s Time To Say Goodbye For Good
    1. You’re not happy. You’re always crying. You’re feeling down all the time and it’s affecting your well-being, your productivity, your energy and your mood.
    2. Your contact is diminishing. If there’s little to zero contact then that’s a clear sign that the most important factor (communication) is missing and you can’t build a connection if you don’t have solid communication.
    3. You don’t know exactly what you mean to them anymore. You don’t know if you’re a friend or more. You don’t know if they love you because they haven’t said it. You don’t even know if they like you because their actions don’t show attraction or admiration.
    4. They’re not who they were when you first met them. Something has changed and something feels ‘off.’ Whether it’s a change in behavior or just another side you haven’t seen before. And I don’t mean minor changes, I mean changes that make you question if you may have misjudged that person in the first place or if they were pretending to be someone else to impress you.
    5. You don’t have an answer when people ask you about them. You don’t know what to say anymore, you don’t know if you’re together or if they’re talking to someone else. You don’t know if you’re ‘dating’ or if it was just a fling and now it’s over.
    6. You don’t really trust them. You don’t think they have your back because they disappointed you so many times before. You don’t think they’ll fight for you if you walk away. You don’t think they’ll protect your heart because they keep breaking it.
    7. There’s more distance than intimacy. If your time together is short, cold, indifferent and feels more like an obligation, then it’s a sign that they checked out a long time ago and it’s only a matter of time before it ends. If you’re not growing closer then you’re definitely growing apart.
    8. You feel like it’s one sided. You’re always the one making an effort, you’re always the one reaching out or finding ways to try to fix what’s broken. You’re constantly giving and giving and getting very little in return.
    9. You’re resentful. If you’re carrying a lot of negative emotions, anger and bitterness because of what they put you through, then you’ll never be in a healthy mental or emotional state to be a better or more loving person because you’re still hurting from their actions or the way they treated you.
    10. You’re still hung up on their ‘potential’ not on who they really are. When you really like or love someone, you tend to believe that they’ll eventually come around and be the person they’re capable of being, but sometimes real life is not that romantic and that person stays the same because they’re simply not ready or not willing to change and your love won’t always be the magic wand that turns them into that amazing person they could be.
    11. Everyone tells you that you deserve better. If your friends and family keep telling you that it’s not worth it, that you deserve better or that you need to move on, listen to them because they want what’s best for you and they can see that this relationship is draining you and wearing you out.
    12. Deep inside, you know it’s over but you just don’t want to admit it. At the end of the day, we have a strong intuition that warns us when something is wrong or when it’s time to walk away but sometimes we choose to ignore our intuition because we want to believe that there’s still hope if we try harder. If your gut is telling you that it’s time to say goodbye - do it - no matter how hard it will be. You’ll thank yourself later.

  • @raymondpastoral2311
    @raymondpastoral2311 4 года назад +296

    Based on my experience, I think one of the reasons why some people have a hard time letting go and moving on is regret. Sometimes, it's really hard to accept why everything has to end when in fact you were able to have good times together. Sometimes, it's hard to understand why things have to end up this way when you were happy in the beginning. It's really hard to let go of the good times and many people wish how they could just rewind and go back to how things were before. We regret the moments we could've experienced if we'll only fix things together.

    The hardest part for me was accepting that they never loved me the way they claimed. They moved on so easily after 3 years! I was in a relationship with a narcissist and it felt wonderful and so powerful at times but the thought of it meaning nothing to them was devastating to me at first! But after about 9 months of internal agony and feeling lost without her I started realizing that if she never really felt the way I thought she did what was I really losing or missing? It wasn't real, it was me that created that love! I realized that I can do that again but with the right woman for me! So I am excited because I know I have the compacity to love as much as I did!

      Sadly, there really aren't plenty of good fish in the sea. Healthy, self-aware/conscious, empathetic, secure, self-loving human beings do NOT grow on trees, or swim in stormy seas.
      I'm generalizing here, but choosing your romantic partner is the single biggest decision one makes in a lifetime.
      So, what do we do?
      Do we spend a lot of time asking questions, looking for verbal and non-verbal cues, reflecting and checking in with our intuition?
      Do we check out their family, their history, their track record, their personality?
      Do we check out their friends?
      Do we soul-search before we enter into a relationship?
      The usual answer: NO.
      Oh look, there's a rainbow over that unicorn!
      But I do concur that your ex doesn't matter. Absolutely. That's how they feel about you, so we need to try and do the same.

      8 months after the breakup, I still think about her even more and it's exhausting. We were in a relationship for 5 months, lived together for 3 months, and everything was great.
      We broke up because she was smoking weed every day and smoking weed with other men in the parks.
      A month after the breakup, she contacted me and said she wanted to reconcile, but she had something to tell me. She slept with some random guy she smoked weed with, and she slept with him just a week after the breakup.
      That information destroyed me, knowing that she was willing to throw away all the good we had for sex with some random guy... How could she sleep with someone so soon after just a week? Even to this day, that information haunts me. I felt so broken and betrayed.

    How do you forgive yourself for the mistakes you made during the relationship?

    • @faithfuleagle
      @faithfuleagle 4 года назад +16

      By trying to understand why we made the mistakes, what was lacking in us to make those bad decisions or behavior. Learning how to fulfil in ourselves what is lacking so we can except and appreciate our mistakes and truly using them as tools to be better people. Knowing we dont want to hurt or be hurt, and that building on these improvements will hopefully help build a stronger relationship for the future. Staying positive because we ll resolve to enrich ourselves from what we ve learned.

But I made a BIG change this time and totally disconnected my phone number and blocking all communication. The Hope that i had by believing his words would diminish with his actions over and over. He is in his addiction of women and I deserve so much better and will take some time to heal and be the best I can be for myself, my kids, my friends, my family.

    This was such a great video for me. I was in an 8 month relationship that was on and off with someone I think was a narcissist. He discarded me over nothing a month ago and I am having such a hard time moving on. He had broken up with me in the past a couple times over an ex-boyfriend even though I swore that relationship was totally over - I thought he was just sensitive and hurt. But this last time was ridiculous over something a friend of mine said to him. It hurts so much because he made me feel like it was so real (I want to grow old with you, I want this more then you can know, you are all I think about blah blah blah the things he said went on & on) yet he is able to drop me on a dime. The good times were so good, that;s what makes this hard. I am saving this video and watching it every day. I really have to stay strong - he hoovered me once & here I am wanting him back. It's an awful place to be.

I feel like it helps to talk to people, especially people that don’t know you & can give you some perspective from the outside looking in. I know how hard it is to refrain from having contact with someone you really care about even though you know they aren’t good for you! I’ve been doing this myself, matter of fact I had stayed no contact for 3 months & all of a sudden I got weak 3 weeks ago & started talking to him. And just like before, he stops talking to me all of a sudden bc his girlfriend’s in town. So Ive got to start the healing process all over again. Have you found yourself doing this too?Maybe if both of us can STOP talking to our ex’s & do this 2gether, it will give us the determination to stop altogether! Wouldn’t that be great! I’m going to be praying for you & fingers crossed that you will do this. I have faith in you even though I don’t know you! My gut feeling tells me you are a very good person!!

      Petra; I have watched many videos about narcissists, and was beginning to become slightly cynical - not only did everyone I had ever disagreed with look a bit like a narc, I was beginning to wonder if I was one myself. What Steph's videos have done is to draw my attention to why I have found myself drawn into a series of dysfunctional relationships - I can tend towards co-dependency - and that's when the penny dropped: rather hoping that they would change - which they probably couldn't, I probably couldn't help them with, and it wasn't my responsibility any way - I needed/need to do some work on myself. It sounds embarrassing - almost an admission of weakness and neediness - but its not: it's REALLY empowering. I would like to hear more from Steph about 'self-parenting', but she is absolutely spot-on when she talks about the inner dialogue we have with ourselves, and how that is the key to having a successful dialogue with anyone/everyone else in our lives. I used to be slightly co-dependent; I still am; the difference is, I know that now, and that knowledge is absolute dynamite

Wouldn’t tell me who it is or why. I tried to love her but it was just constant bad moods, secrets, selfishness, taking, attacking my character (reflecting HER hatred of herself on to me), rollercoaster emotions. The sex was incredible and we had an amazing connection but I was always hoping she would become more secure and “let me in” but it never happened. When we got close, she would push me away again. So fucking EXHAUSTING. I almost want to warn the new guy haha. I needed to hear this video because the hope keeps you completely STUCK. Thank you 🙏🏻

I am just a mix of feelings, and I want him to have happiness & peace but how do I start over let this huge chunk of my life that was basically a lie go?

    Response to: Obsessing over a Past Relationship. Thabks!! i am a Mature Women and this is " Great"! I think You Really " Understand" about Relatuonships. And it is Great to see " a Women" on here giving advice. Thousands of People literally I think are " Pining" over an Ex. And trying to get them back. I am NOT trying to get Anyone back. But I have 2 Ex's who came back " as Just Friend's" and another " Ex" out there who is " Very Curious". I Used to have a Hard time figuring out " how to" get an Ex back even as a Friend. But My Ex's seem to get Curious. And I am a Sweet, Kind. Women. But Sometimes You Cannot help but to go down Memory lane with a Past Ex. And it can Really Hurt sometimes to realuze it is over. But Thanks for Reminding Us Women or Men that We may " Miss Out" on a Great Potential Partner in the " Future" if we keep looking backwards! So that is a Valid point. Another Good Point is as You said " to Know" what were looking for in the Future. And if an Ex comes back fine. We can maybe be Friend's . And like you said it is like a Job, You said You have to know what Your looking for. Good point. The Best Relationship I Ever had was at "17" Years Young. I Asked God to Please let me Meet a Nice Young Man with " Good Values" who Believed in God etc etc... One Week only and I was Invited to an Unexpected Party. And this " Very" Handsome Man from another Country asked Me to Dance. He fell " in Love" 1st..We had " Great" Communication. We were " So" in Love and So " Close". But unfortinately We Broke Up.. We Both made some Mistakes. But we were Honest about it. One time he Hid that a Women came over to Visit him and he began Dating her too. The Relationship Ended. But I do NOT try to get him back. It is Too Late for that!! Too Much water under the Bridge. By Now he probably is Married with a Family!! That was in my Young Youth. But I am " So" glad I atleast Experienced that " Beautiful" Unconditional Love. Thanks for reminding Us All to look ahead. And Not be stuck in the past..If an Ex comes back and says " Hi" then we can deal with that Reaiity if and when it happems..It is True that Low Self Esteem and Doubt maybe on " Both" sides. Maybe " Both" People feel BAD that the person appears to be moving on. Your So So Right Dear!! Life is Too Too Short!! I know, I had " Malignant" Cancer a few Years ago!! I Survived. But. were All going to Die sometime. If we Believe in " Jesus Christ" We will be Rewarded " Eternal Life" and one Day we Will Live Forever God Willing in Heaven. Also I Recommend Praying and Asking God to send the Right Partner in the Right time..But it is okay to be " Single" and to have Dear Friend's. God Bless. Your " Beautiful" inside and out. I did give a Thumbs Up and I did Subscribe. Please Make MORE of these Thousands of " Hurting" Bad Women and Men NEED to Hear this " Positive" and " Very" Intellegent Advice. Thankyou, Kindly amd " Sincerely"!!

    Self love is great and all, but sometimes, people truly do deserve a second chance. We all make mistakes in our lives, and as long as we learn from it, I truly do believe some people deserve a second chance.

    Very helpful! I'm struggling with completely getting over my ex. He treated really awful at the end by giving me the silent treatment. It was the worse feeling being shut out but I knew I had to end it. Your tips on focusing on myself and what I need will help me to fully move on and attract the right person for me. Love your videos!

      Silence is truly deadly. He won’t reply to any messages with no explanation he just ghosts. It’s a hard pill to swallow

    Thank you! I broke up with my ex, and said that we should be friends. He messaged me two days later, and it got pretty emotional. Then he made me feel like he was leaving me... and I felt like crap after that. I wish I had never replied to him that day. 🤦🏾‍♀️ I definitely need my confidence back... but it will take time. I'm in a weird place at the moment.

      Jae Me Literally going through the same thing, I poured my heart out to him and it’s like he didn’t even care, I broke up with my boyfriend as well due to certain issues but I ended up blocking him after our last conversation just to save myself, like I want him to care but I can’t force him.

    My narcissist blocked me on absolutely everything. Because I said I was going to out them. How do I forgive myself, accept she’s never coming back. And heal.

    It's been almost a year since she left me. I have two therapists, meditate, journaling, awareness and gratefulness exercises. Nothing changes, I think about her essentially the whole day, I don't get a break from these thoughts. I'm about to give up, for real. I just can't take the sadness and the hurt anymore. It's better not to be here anymore.

    Thanks for sharing, this is the exact push I needed. I've been trying to rid myself from the clutches of a relationship that ended 20 years ago that I thought I was over but realized I wasn't. Memories kept bothering me but because of your video, I to stop the replay in my head and remind myself that if we were meant to be, we'd still be together.

  • @gustavogarcia0634

    Very good video. Sadly, I was the reason for the separation. I didn't want it but I caused it. It hurt but I sat through this video as if u were talking to my beautiful, strong ex. Now this kinda break up, the one I see from my pov is a hard one. I didn't notice the things I was doing that ultimately pushed her away until it was too late. Like da saying goes, "U don't know what u have til it's gone." Anyway, seeing this video thru "her" eyes, was good for me. I totally get why she had to call it. I'm somewhat at peace now, if that makes any sense.

    Wow. You are great Stephanie. So true...you can't negotiate desire from another person. So why waste your energy trying to win them back. Find the person out there who is looking for the same things you are and is willing to fight for you when things aren't going great at times.

    I recently ended a 30 year marriage, after my husband got lost for a couple of years. Lost as in he was depressed about his career. Most of our years together had been wonderful. Best friends, and a deep love for each other. After trying to help him get out of his rut, I became lost.
    I regret leaving him. A week previous to my saying I needed to leave, he came back from a week of being gone on a trip, with a changed attitude. I failed him by not listening. I could see and feel that he had crossed over.
    I would give anything to get him back.
    I'm sure he felt abandoned and betrayed. I have tried to tell him that maybe we shouldn't end this marriage and instead work to make it right.
    Many people do and have a better relationship than ever.
    I moved clean across the country. I really made a mess of things .😢

    When your first relationship was in your 30s like mine, when you’ve struggled financially and with health, when you’ve been told by all your friends and others who say youre a catch, you’re funny and handsome and yet as a guy you can’t find an attractive woman or even whether online or in person it’s pretty depressing and very damn hard to move on. My ex pocketed me for the 2.5 years we were together though we had talked towards the last several months and I had been led to believe we would become public once I was able to meet her parents financial obligations. We moved from Melbourne FL down to West Palm and she had discarded not once but twice. After the first time was for a week or two in July and that got me to work on things such as being better with cleaning and being more active (it’s not easy with a very active ostomy). I even got vaccinated for her as I have Crohn’s disease and my doctor wasn’t quite sure if the vaccine would react poorly to the long term meds I would be taking around the same time. I stopped playing video games a lot and only occasionally and spent more time with her. I gave her confidence to do stand up and karaoke and made most of her social connections down there. Now she’s dating some shmuck who apparently is a snob, wanted to blow one of my best friends (in front of her) and a complete simp. She never celebrated me and even would joke when we would all play games that she would never date me yet she and I arrived together, and we would get drinks together and she would play footsie or hold my hand - but under the table. I’m so hurt, sad, upset and pissed about the whole thing. The new guy has his own tech business and has “potential” and even got to meet her family, something he didn’t want but I did and never got. He’s broker than me but he doesn’t have an ostomy (I’ve been working to get mine reversed since I first got it in august 2019) which had made it near impossible for me to enjoy swimming or doing many sports (fills up relatively quickly). My own mom thinks it’ll be hard for me to find someone while I’m still paying off my student loan debt but that won’t happen at this rate till I’m near my 50s. I’m so damn frustrated and can’t seem to focus on bettering my life, I’ve lost interest in my job and most hobbies. It’s been a struggle to do work (it’s tedious, monotonous and analytical), exercise (try to walk and or work out every day) and I feel so lonely. Most of my friends are in or on the cusp of being in relationships and so spend the vast majority of time with their loved ones. I’m trying to keep my head up but I go from deep sadness and loneliness to immense anger and frustration with people and life.

    I am so very glad to have found this channel and especially this segment! I broke up with my boyfriend over a month ago. I love him deeply still. I couldn't handle the jealousy and I am finding out, the narcissism that he was bringing to the relationship. It hurt then, it hurts now, with every breath I take! He has left me twice for an ex girlfriend of his, but because I love him so much, I kept going back each time he asked me to. It was excruciating. It made me very suicidal near the end. He still texts me and tells me that he loves me which makes it THAT much harder. I want to RUN back to him, but I know it won't be any different. I know that he will never truly love me. I am so broken. Why can I not just remember the bad things he did? Why can I NOT love him anymore?? I NEEDED to hear what you had to say. Thank you. I DO need to remember that I am worth so much more. I just wish you could tell me how to turn my heart off.😢

      Dear Angela, I wrote this to Troy Harper and then I read your note. Stephanie Lyn is a wonderful resource and I urge you to keep following her and those that are as generous and knowledgeable with this content as is she. This is what I sent to TH:
      Troy Harper, there will be nostalgia. Please consider that it is not her that you are grieving for but the real grief of not having the future with her that you believed/wanted to have with her. You, me everyone deserve(s) the stability and peace of living without the "back and forth". I was "in love" with my ex and occasionally I get stuck like Stephanie Lyn says "in that hope" . "Back and Forth" relationships are not stable and are not capable of providing a reasonable happiness. This is only my opinion and I speak only from the opinion of a parent wherein I would never want my son or daughter to live in an unstable world of "will my mom/dad be here at _____" . Like Stephanie Lyn says, you deserve to be happy.
