    As a guy, my anxiety is always my not so hidden shame. I've had experiences in the past where the communication and vibes are heavy early on, but if one little thing changes ....like some daily communication to a lapse in a text message of three hours or so...my anxiety kicks in and I become concerned I'm being abandoned and she's no longer interested in me. And it hurts so much and makes dating a nightmare.

    • @Luc3ntiX
      @Luc3ntiX 5 лет назад +121

      I'd say that regarding messages, let's say she writes you, you respond, then 4 to 6 hours go by, without a message from her,you start to wonder, maybe she doesnt really like me and such, shift your thoughts to, if she wouldn't like me, she wouldn't write me to start with, or to she is busy at work or with her family, start to shift the flow of negative thoughts to positive

  • @joshuamacgregor622
    @joshuamacgregor622 4 года назад +632

    For me the anxiety comes from texting and online interaction. I find that when we are together in person, there can still be some anxiety but for the most part it’s just not there at all. I get the most anxious when I don’t get a text back right away, when she responds to my relatively long text with a short text... things like that. Also when I wake up in the morning and see that she has posted on her social medias but I go to my texts/snapchat and see nothing from her.
    Deep down when I think about it logically I know it is nothing to worry about. I know she loves me so much but still my mind just can’t stop filling in the blanks with terrible negatives. It makes being in a relationship really hard for me sometimes. I really just wish this anxiety would go away because it can definitely get debilitating.

      Absolutely the exact same thing for me. I work away and a lot of the time. While we’re home it’s good, like you said a little anxiety, not much. As soon as I’m away, it goes completely opposite. It feels for me how much love and passion you have for this person and you’re not getting it on return the same you give it.
      The anxiety and stories that my mind makes can make me feel so sick and the lack of sleep is awful.
      It’s son very hard.

      I'm telling you, mate, if you have the mental capacity to see your flaws, you have the power within to change them. One of the most important things is to stop hating yourself when the problem occurs. The worst thing you can do is being your own enemy. Self-love goes a long way. It's the first step. The seed of healthy change is the realization that you're not horrible the way you currently are. You're alright and you deserve to be even better. I've spent years trying to get a gym routine going, fuelled by self-hatred and always stopping after a few months. Now I'm in the best shape of my life, all because I've learned to accept myself as the first step.

      Hey girls, same. And I do communicate. But it doesn’t help. I feel better for a few days but then memories come up or I start to think I am not good enough again. Thankfully he understands and try’s to comfort me when I go through this. But I just feel so bad for bringing up my insecurities. I also feel like he’ll leave eventually because I can’t get over it and it’s been years. I thought I would be somewhat better... but it’s not. I often want to leave because I think he’ll be better off, I’d rather just rip the bandage off, but I can’t. It’s like Zenoa said, a type of ptsd that just keeps reoccurring in memories and dreams. Small behaviors can trigger me when generally he’s just tired or dealt with someone difficult. It’s just so annoying and I wish my brain would just get over it.

And as I watch this video, I finally learned something. Yeah, just think that you have a special place in your partner's heart that no one has and you also have to love and trust yourself. Both of you have your own life. No matter your difference are, you two are still connected to each other. Thank you for the advice.👍

Always doubting myself and always thinking the person your with is gonna do you like a previous relationship did. I remember being confident in myself and never getting thoughts that felt like they were being pushed into my head where that all you can think about till your hot all over sweating and that's when I vomit. I'm glad I'm not the only one like this but then again I wish no one felt the way I do.

    The 3rd point is really a game changer! It really comes down to self love. Filling yourself up first. Knowing and being who you are. Accepting who you are. Trusting who you are. For the first time in my adult life I am able to truly show up authentically as I am getting to know someone new. My level of consciousness is a result of learning and more importantly feeling love for myself. Healing past wounds. This now gives me the opportunity to freely give to someone else....without all the pressure and expectations for someone to fill me up.

  • @MsGuard3
    @MsGuard3 5 лет назад +28

    This is good advice. In the past I have had relationships with narcissists and surrendered my whole self to their wants and needs. They still cheated on me and left me. Now I have done a great deal of self work, and being on my own and learning to love who I am gain confidence and undo all of the damage from years of insidious emotional abuse. I have recently met a lovely guy and my anxieties naturally surface. The key is not to be NEEDY and stay true to yourself. Treat the other person as a PERSON, love them and care for them as a friend. Love and care for yourself as a friend too - and I find talking out loud and asking myself questions, and reassuring myself helps get me back into a healthy space. I recognise triggers and can analyse where they come from. If you just be yourself, and kind, and not demanding from the other person, you will have a friend first and foremost. If your partner is a narcissist, then no amount of kindness will make them love you, as they are incapable. A good person will talk things over and not be defensive if you approach any problems with kindness. This new relationship is unlike any other because I am now with a person who actually cares about my feelings, and that is quite amazing to me.

    What causes my anxiety is that I worry I’ll mess up somehow or that we’ll encounter a problem down the road that we both won’t be able to fix and it makes us both very unhappy. I worry that one day one of us will wake up and just not love each other somehow? Not that I think it’s possible for love to fade so quickly. I know some of these fears are irrational, and I always try to convince myself that we can fix it or brave through it no matter. We’ve gotten this far already. It gets hard sometimes to rationalise like this.

    I love this! This has always been my biggest issue in relationships. Thank you for the insight! I just thought of a great analogy! I feel very secure in my job. I know I do a very good job so I am a valuable employee. They will encounter a very big setback if they lose me. They NEED me. Because of this, I know if I continue to work hard and find more ways to integrate myself, I will become even more indispensable. The thought of getting fired will never even cross my mind.

    • @Articulated84Beauty

      Jo See that’s a very unique analogy!
      So, I honestly feel that way about my job! The question is, why wouldn’t I feel the same in my relationship? Could it be because I haven’t thought about this before using this specific analogy or other areas of my life I achieve greatly in? Is it because it takes two to make someone secure in the relationship? Very interesting content to ponder on! Thanks!!

  • @lisaariottiart
    @lisaariottiart 3 года назад +4

    I have entered the dating scene recently after years of committed relationships. I find that my attachment anxiety is magnified enormously with texting and internet dating. In trying to work through this I realized that I can not enter into any undefined situationship " nor can I be sexual prior to building a deep, trusting friendship. I also need the man to move forward in his masculinity, first in terms of claiming me and wanting monogamy during the dating process and second in his consistency of communication. Without these assurances the relationship will be doomed and I become, for lack of a better term a freaking basket case. Clarity, Boundaries and Consistency are just as important these days as a foundation to partnership as are Romance , Chemistry and Loyalty. And I would argue they are a biological imperative ... no human can successfully handle the specter of emotional or physical abandonment . Understand the Self, understand the psyche & be kind to Other's ❤️🙏🏻.

I'm gonna go to the gym more often, because I can do to use 10 pounds or so. Plus, im doing research into how to improve myself. I told my interest about my anxiety, and she says it's fine, but it's time to shape up.
    I mean, she wouldn't be talking to me, let alone try to see me, if she wasn't interested. Everyone gets busy. She says she misses me, says sorry when she's not online. Like honestly, what am I thinking. I can now answer my questions with "If she says all those things, there's no way she's not interested." :)

      Now, I will tell you this.
      Inside your heart is your true love
      And you actually know who that is but for some reason you are not together and its probably something like you are scared to make that choice
      and so you choose "New" people - but then discover that your body rejects the idea.
      That's because your body and heart are TELLING THE TRUTH - our Body and Heart can Never Ever lie.
      The only real challenge for you is to Quieten your mind which has given you a massive list of "reasons why it has to be NO'
      ..
      and you have to do the brave thing.
      Follow your True North
      Get on the path of your Heart xxx
      Have courage !

I love how you mentioned how these qualities aren't limited by gender because you're absolutely right. By girlfriend and I both have masculine and feminine qualities, but they are opposite and thus balanced.

We've been back together for four days now but I'm getting more and more paranoid every single day. I'm so tired of worrying and I feel like I'm going to go insane. What if he gets bored and breaks up with me again? I don't think I can handle that so I don't want to break up with him but I've never been this stressed in my life.

    I was once so anxious about my relationship to an ex, I left her. It seems strange now, someone who overwhelmingly says they love you, but the stress and confusion I felt, made me leave her. It was like after years my mind just was looking beyond the relationship. It was like I had to accept we were no longer together and i was living a life beyond her even though I was still with her. It started when questions in my mind started to get more and more to the forefront. It was like what I thought should a relationship was being questioned in my heart and mind and it was hurting. To this day I regret how it ended, I couldn't apologise enough. This was a relationship which ended years ago, I have been another relationship since now for years. But i know what I did and I could never put it right or express my deepest regret.

    I find myself getting extremely insecure and overthinking how much I make my boyfriend laugh. I have never experienced this until recently as he has made some really good close friends that have him cracking up all the time. I can never seem to make him laugh as much as his friends make him laugh, but then we have moments where we are dying laughing and it’s because I wasn’t overthinking every single moment I’m making him laugh. Does anyone else have a similar feeling? It’s so silly but it crippled me to the point where I feel a girl who is as funny as his friends will come along and sweep him off his feet.

    I feel relationship anxiety because he keeps lying to me, saying he deleted his dating profile, but he hasn't. Then he ghosted and sorta came back and breadcrumbung since.

      Look at the book 'attachment' amor levine understand which attachment you may have first work on that to feel more secure in yourself then look at what you can do for the relationship if you're able to

      Can you expand? When they don't commit in what type of context... to be your boyfriend, monogamous, marriage?
      Thanks and I appreciate you asking.

    when it comes to comparing I think that being in a gay relationship makes it slightly worse. I mean, as a man I tend to compare myself with man and I find myself doing it with the person I'm with. All comparison is nonsense since we're all very different, even if there is no "polarity" in this case.

      Fidel Spagolla not true. Men and women can possess the latter. A woman can have masculine traits and vice versa.

    Hi Clayton. Thank you for your in-depth advice, I really enjoy your videos.
    I have a question. At the beginning at the video you say that a person’s core value shouldn’t be in the things they do. Yet the third point of curing the anxiety in relationship is through continuing of doing things to improve yourself. That sounds contradicting to me.
    My question is, is there a distinguished balance where you do things to improve yourself but they don’t become a source for your core value? Thank you.
