- The Intermittent fasting relationship style. Can it work for you? Maybe NOT seeing each other alot is the key to enriching a relationship and even starting a relationship?
Working w/laser focus five days a week & prospering. THEN seeing ur mate/partner/spouse 2 days/wk.
The intermittent fasting version of relationships.
This could work 4 me. Could it work for u?
That question can immediately calibrate ur "neediness" ....or does it?
Comment pls

I used the vortex method on my last woman, lets just say I pleased her on the molecular level.
Expecting a video on that soon 😇
Lol the Sultan needs to pin this ASAP!!!
How does that work
BRAVO, BRAVO!!
Were you, uh, using chopsticks? Asking for a friend
I had my fiancé leave to her parents and I went on a 36 hour isolation into my room, no light, window and doors blocked off. Felt very rejuvenated but after I came out it even rejuvenated my relationship.
Men used to leave for days, to hunt, to track, to conquer and then come home. Time apart is healthy
Familiarity breeds contempt. Absence makes the heart grow fonder.
"Believe what people do, not what they say."
You just earned yourself a subscriber, my friend.
I have been married almost 32 yrs, and the last 18 of those yrs have been spent working side by side with my husband, every day, to build the business we created those many yrs ago. It is not for the faint of heart, to be sure. He would tell you that I often say to him, "you need to go hang out with the guys" ...so he does. I think we have made it this far because we decided to.The right kind of "space" is a wonderful thing!
One of my favorite humans. Carry on Sultan
I like this human too.
I think I can speak for many you're the cool uncle I never had. Wise, calm, tough, yet fair. Coach Sultan, There are days I'll wake up feeling like I'm down 6 points on my own 3 yard line, with 8 secs left and one hand tied behind my back. Thanks for being in my morning locker room to pep me up. In China (my home for 15 years), there is the concept of 孝顺 (xiao shun) - Google it. Another character attribute for which I highly respect you.
I’m a 23 year old Muslim male I watch your videos.
Just because your Christian doesn’t mean you don’t have wisdom and vice versa
I would appreciate connecting with you.
I’m Muslim, Egyptian living in China and watching your videos in the morning and it’s really wonderful talk, it gives a lot of relief and insight about dozen of stuff
Thanks George
Interesting perspective and comments around here. Imagine if we can all someday even meet and have a bourbon and cigars conversation discussing these issues. Good luck!
100.000 subscribers! Way to go George
I have been married for 29 years and I will say, my husband is a retired Marine, that his many deployments allowed for individual growth and fondness for each other. The daily phone call or facebook message or way back in the day-a letter would mean so much. They were the hardest and best times of my life.
" individual growth"
Yea you had a LOT of fun while he was deployed didnt you?.....he he
John Luke LOL
“There are times I want to punch 🤜 a wall and want to cry”...thank you Man I really needed to hear all of your message
You mention being a care taker, I remember when I was a child in 1999 I was the care taker for my mother who died of cancer that year. My dad made the choice to be gone most of the time. Pretty much all my mom had were her nurses and me. I will never forget the strength I saw her display. I think she is where I got my strength from. My father died in 2001, I still resent him for many reasons. I do not believe that I will forgive him anytime soon for all the things he put on me at such a young age. that time was really full of struggle but yet there was beautiful lessons embedded in that struggle.
I agree with your views on relationship fasting. I think if couples are too available to each other it can kill desire.
I work on a hydraulic fracturing crew 14 days at a time, 15.5 to 16 hours a day. I get to come home 6 days a month. My wife will usually come visit me once, and if I'm on day shift, she will rent a room and we will stay together. We are very excited to see each other. Yes, we are also normally very excited to participate in nude adult activities with one another as well. Absence usually does make the heart grow fonder. It takes a strong bond to be able to have this type of relationship in my opinion. I enjoy your videos, thank you!
Respect for taking Care of a person with Parkinsons. My dad had it for 12 years.
Not easy- i saw the toll it took on my mom at the time.
Indeed an a labor of love!❤
This man is the grandfather I never had. So much wisdom, I would love to even have a fraction of it by the time I'm his age.
These videos are addictive on a molecular level. Thank you for your advice, see you tomorrow!
5am daily (Mon - Sun) riser and 1 cup of coffee ☕️ has been my quiet zone routine for years.
It indeed helps keep the sanity. 🥴
Giving space, it honors the other person. Wow, thats truly deep. Hits home.
By learning how to die you learn how to live meaningfully. You cut out everything that's irrelevant, all the background noise.
Well sad
How do you prioritize what irrelevant? I have family I need to cut off but I'm being hit with a guillt trip and its hindering my acceptance of opportunities and progression. Anyway. Since subscribing I've been really navigating the bullshit on a stoic level and I appreciate the builds you offer.
@@TheeRebel Why do you want to cut off family? Are they lying to you? Are they making their and your life miserable? You need to ask yourself questions about why you want to do things.
You get hit by a guilt trip ... and if it resonates then it means there's something there you don't want to acknowledge.
Learning how to die... but first coffee...
Be. Wise that wasn’t a ghost. They don’t exist. That was a demon. Know Christ and love our God, fill yourself with the Holy Spirit, and you will not end up like that demon. Don’t and you surely will. God bless you
i can remember that when you stopped to just giving beard related advice only , there was a lot of critisism from people. things like; just tell us about beards stop being some motivational speaker and trying so hard. Haha, 100 k subs; you showed them! you are one of my favourite people George, love to listen to your advice!friendship from Belgium!
I have a friend moving to Belgium. When he gets there, I'll introduce you. A real good dude
I love when I surf YT and come across little Gems like this channel!! Blessings.
Aaron.
Sir Bruno, thank you for opening up about a real unspoken issue: caregiving. Stoicism keeps you alive and maintains your passion through the arts and sciences.
Thank you for sharing your situation. It helps a viewer like me to appreciate you more as a person than just a personality.
Thank you for the work you do George. As a young blue collar working man, you are a source of guidance and wisdom in a world full of deceit and superficialities. Like the wise uncle we all need.
I have great respect and admiration for this man, he is honest, dependable, and mentally resilient. He voices a message that many men should heed and act upon.
I’ve been lurking your videos for a while now but you being a Christian is what made me subscribed to your channel. I hate people who shove religion down someone’s throat but I do love people who have a foundation based on the Bible
This was just wonderful! I was so memorized I couldnt pull myself away. Thank you for all the great advice! God bless you brother in the LOrd.
My wife and I see each other primarily at week's end due to our work schedules. The week is spent pursuing career success while the weekend is spent pursuing each other. Men, never stop pursuing your mate. Don't confuse that with smothering. Hold onto that relationship like delicate crystal not a torque wrench. Always nice to enjoy morning coffee with the Sultan. Sieze the day. Skol!
My 6 year old is autistic, and it definitely added routines and suitability as a necessity. Your words here are great for all to hear, especially your thoughts on managing your intense emotions (also shared.) Good stuff, my friend.
Wow I knew I needed this info. I can so relate as I have a daughter with a chromosomal disorder, autism, and epilepsy. I struggle immensely with my emotions. My daughter deserves stability Thanks you for putting this out there Sir!!
New subscriber to your channel - I am female - and I love your content. Applying stoic principles to my life has helped me stay stable since the death of my son six years ago. That and my faith in God. Thanks for all the great wisdom in your videos and the calm and soothing delivery. Wishing you a Merry Christmas.
Thank you. Peace
This is the most open video I have ever seen, you are a great person and to see the struggles you have in your life and still make it work is inspiring
45 male, never married & no kids. I love the guy fawkes mask hanging on your wall. Nice touch.
This is one cool man. Would love to meet him and have a cup of coffee and a cigar. Need a more people like you George.
Very solid session. You're a quality dude. This show is quality. I enjoy it. And yep, true about realtionship fasting. Fasting is healthy... in several areas. Think ab that for a second. Haha
Freedom is a most wonderful gift ...a blessing ,and a yearning for freedom is a constant ,for any without it
Man, just watching you take a sip of coffee relaxes me.
Wow, where have you been? Finally, a real man in the manosphere.
Explain please.
@@ListenMySonYou're gentle yet masculine. You seem to be a professional with clinical experience in a field which I feel gets blasted inappropriately on the "manosphere". As a social worker myself I hear so much "advice" given which is beyond laughable and a poor attempt at being a "for fun" therapist online. Most "masculinity vloggers" are poorly veiled actors and the amateur hour of one shot and poor clinical engagement with men. If they had to talk to the same guy for more than 5 or sessions, their lack of skill would be blatantly obvious to all. I've watched a bunch of your stuff now and it's satisfyingly positive and balanced, without those corny absolutes or "get laid now" schemes. I appreciate the richness of your wisdom and how you choose to show it.
Brother, thanks for sharing your story about your family. Being a parent of a child with special needs is heartbreaking, amazing, gut-wrenching and wonderful all at the same time. The daughter that we lost in May (as I mentioned before) had many medical challenges and conditions. She was an amazing little girl and is now home with Jesus. I forwarded a brief version of our story to the gb email. I pray that you continue to find peace and pass along your wisdom. I am changing my life thanks to your videos, interviews, etc. Going to get unstuck. Love you, man.
I also have 3 children, one is autistic too. I am stable and stoic and have control over myself. I appreciate other men that have these values.
You really find out what you are made of when times are crazy. I lost my apartment and job and been dealing with health issues now. I have days where I feel like noone will ever want to be around me. I have no choice but to be strong and stay positive.
You DO have a choice! And you clearly are making the right one!
"Let there be spaces in your togetherness . . ."
I made sure that was part of our wedding ceremony.
When i first found out your channel i thought you're a carnivore Dieter.
Later i found out you're also a red piller. Very cool.
I intend to perform at my optimal level. Seeing the world through reality lens. I'm also a red piller, stoic, old soul, and starting my carnivore diet.
Best wishes to your journey. Love from Hong Kong.

When careGiving your parents are any loved one?There's a sense of spiritual pride and connection.That comes along with that when they're there and when they pass on you feel it. There's no regrets putting your life on hold.Even when you think you'r missing out, but you could never replace the I.Dea that you prioritize them just as they did you when you were young. Much love to you sir. I hope your mother Our father are well.I said good energy and loving energy to them.Add to yourself.
Gotta say, you're the first person who mentions the red pill that acts like a good person. It seems the loudest of those who claim this tend to be ignorant and shout at people. I'm so glad to have found your channel to get to hear a sane person who I don't always agree with, but ALWAYS learn from. Thank you for doing what you do. I look forward to your video tomorrow. Thank you for the insight into your life. It gave me hope that I will find the success on my journey that I seek.
I’m 17, and I was born a stoic. I don’t know whether it is wise to search for what unlocks my emotions. Because of this, I do not open myself up to people in order to protect myself from being shaken by them.
George The Prophet is a Amazing book. Such great wisdom. My favorite book besides the bible . You are giving perfect wisdom . Amazing wisdom keep up the great advice. Thank you for your passion your the best.
I’m 34 and I went through all phases of life so early, from the top to the bottom, I was surrounded by lovers & haters, I was loved & cheated, I was rich & broke, I was hugged & stabbed, but eventually I became what I am now. A free man, who struggles to increase his space of freedom and to help other “ healthy “ people to reach their goals, and avoiding the BS in this life.
I agree with most of what Bruno says, if you don’t “ establish “ a solid psychology in this world, then you’re never gonna make it. To reach this state of mind you need experience, patience, and a lot of stamina. Otherwise you’ll end up making wrong choices again and again, repeating the same mistakes !
Bad marriage ✋
Great children ✋
Done breeding ✋
56, wasted most my life✋
GREAT CHILDREN IS A GOOD THING.!!!!!
Stoicism! A thing that's been near, and dear to my hart the last few years. Even more so over the last couple of months.
Thank you for sharing that.
I'm a very emotional man too. I'm a father of a 4 year old and my wife has been having issues with depression since August. I've been slowly learning how to be a stoic since my daughter was born. It's a freeing thing, to be in control of your emotions. I feel like I can tackle any problem put in front of me. And along with watching your videos is also helping me become a stronger man than I have ever been.
The punch a wall and cry part was deep and strong. Realistic as well. Thank you for your honesty, it’s nice to know these frustrations from time to time are common for most of us
Give them the gift of missing you .
So many miss this ,Bruno
Warmly Johannes
It is difficult to be a rock in people's lives but that makes you a king! I relate to you on that level. It is an honor to serve.
"I Love deeply and hate deeply."I really can relate to that. Much love and respect. PEACE
This might just be my favorite video I’ve ever seen on RUclips.... don’t freak-out ....I’m a woman 👩. I’m almost 40 no kids and my husband and I have been together almost 15 years.... everything in this video makes sense to me.
Enjoy listening to your topics. I am around the same age as you and can relate to a lot of your experiences and I also share the wisdom gained from them. Thankyou for sharing yourself here
I was surprised to hear you say that men are more smothering than women. The opposite has always been true for me. I love your concept of relationship fasting.👍
I'm glad I found your channel Mr. Bruno
I look forward to 2019 and improving and applying some of these principles. I feel we are very similar in thought/moral. Much love to you. Have a blessed 2019.
Sorry to hear about your mom. I hope she will be okay
Wow!!!!!! Where do I begin, perhaps at the beginning!!! My life thus far in capsule form, first marriage, he was 21 & I was nineteen, went to my fathers house into my husbands house with "NO" experience of the outside or real world!!!! Had one child with this marriage, 6 1/2 yrs. into the marriage. Everything was wonderful, we were inseparable,we both loved the outdoors, working together on projects etc.When our son came along he too enjoyed everything with mom & dad.We moved from PA. where we were all born to Maine, where we always took family vacations. It was our dream to enjoy the great outdoors in beautiful Maine!! We lived in Maine four years working hard, husband having a full time job, myself having a full time job in the school so that I could be off in the summer to be home for the boy. Also we were running a 175 acre farm. My husband was a workaholic.
And then it happened, after 20yrs. of marriage my husband shares with me that he has been having an affair and will be moving out!!! I was left with a thirteen yr.old boy who loved his father, and all other family was in PA. I never took care of myself, now I was faced with also taking care of my son, for you see my husband ignored his son for a whole year! To say the least it was hell. Divorce came, farm had to be sold, son graduated from high school, son went into the Coast Guard for 12 Yrs.
I stayed single for 6 1/2 yrs. met husband # 2 at my place of work where he also became an employee. Again, we were inseparable,drove to work together, food shopping together, traveled together, turned camp into home.Were married for 15yrs., but have to say the last five years were hell, I felt so smothered, had lost all my own identity, wasn't doing anything that I enjoyed on my own like before, simple things like kayaking, photography ,walking in the woods, just being connected with nature!!! The house literally became divided, just like we painted a line down the middle, there was honestly no hanky panky going on from either spouse. He was a man who did not like confrontation, but I knew this couldn't go on, not good for him or me! I was not looking to destroy this man emotionally,finacialy or any other way just like I did not do with husband # 1. That is not who I'am.
So I started the talking and we both agreed on the divorce, did our own divorce, agreed on the division of all we had together, I'am now single for another 5 yrs. and husband #2 and myself remain good friends! Unfortunately,husband # 1 died of a massive heart attack at way to young of age of 47,he had no siblings, mother and father deceased's I take care of his cemetery plot faithfully.
I guess I'am missing this female gene that if you go thru divorce" FUCK HIM OVER",I never took a cent of husband # 2 either of his two pensions, the girl who got married at 19,was left on the farm to raise a 13 yr. old son learned damn soon had to take care of herself!!!
My point of this whole tale is this, the first marriage with child, we forgot what it was like to date one another, we built our whole life around our son and forgot about us as a couple. The second marriage, we never had our " ALONE" time, we honestly smothered one another to the point of lost self identity!! Don't feel guilty for spending time apart,,,,,,,,,,AMEN
Don't deny your emotions ,, delay them. I needed to hear that!
your voice is very soothing
I've been watching The Sultan for a couple of years. Found him during my divorce while starting a new job. I turned 41 yesterday. He had something to do with that. Be it a small part. But a watch doesn't work even if its missing its smallest gear. Or even a tooth on its smallest gear.
Dear sir, you help keep certain trains on the track. Espeacially in the mornings. When your achey and cold and dreading work. He gave me something to focus on to help get me over the hump at every creeky, creepy morning.
Thank you Mr. Bruno.
Just ordered my first manual coffee grinder and first french press based on your recommendations. I look forward to my first cup!
I like this vid... You have a great marriage by finding your soul mate from the get go. You are winging it because you have responsibilities to cater to, i.e children.job. I kinda think the Pilots are held in high esteem by those lovely lady stewardessess!.
Relationship fasting has been a natural process for me and my significant other. We both have our own children from different relationship and jobs that demand long hours. The short time we lived together everything went to shit. When we live apart and see each other one maybe 2 nights a week everything is fine.
I don’t quite know what it is but I find myself drawn to your videos I think it’s because I only have to listen, there’s no talking required. And you make me think on levels I don’t see for myself, which I think I really need right now. I’m a British veteran with severe PTSD and depression which I have medication and counselling for but I’ve also been up and down in other areas of life however when I’m alone with my pipe, tobacco and of course a coffee you aid in some way to ease me and help me see clearly - and the funny thing is I’m very much a proud man that feels capable of dealing with myself - but it seems that’s not the case. I need help. I’m getting help. You help. you didn’t know that until now and you still don’t know ME, that’s pretty amazing I think. And BTW............thanks man! Barry.
Pipes are our best friend my brother
George Bruno 100% mine is my religion it’s my way of achieving peace clarity and sanity
I like that Dr. Dispenza said you should romance the future more than the past. Live in the moment and you can't be depressed or anxious. If you really focus on it. God bless.
One of the greatest philosophers of the modern age was Rush drummer Neil Peart. Their song Entre Nous says it perfectly: "The spaces in between, leave room, for you and I to grow."
Beautiful.
sir sultan you are a beast ! young man here looking up to u here from Singapore
Started on this road three years ago. I did not realize it was called stoicism. It just seemed the right direction. It seemed to be what I needed and it seemed to be an aspect of Christianity that has fallen by the wayside long, long ago. I have since learned about stoicism. Everything good in stoicism exists in Christianity, though few modern Christians seem to see it.
all the best for your family sir
My father got is own apartment after my mom kicked him out, but they ended up staying together the rest of their lives. I saw my dad come in the moring and leave in the evening. The last 15 years they lived only 100 m from each other. :D
Hey George. I love the content you share on your RUclips channel. You have a lot of wisdom. It is appreciated. Thank you.
I hear ya about getting up early for quiet time, I do the same, you have learnt alot from those mistakes tho, learning from it is always a positive if you ask me, yeah too much generalization
I was a caretaker for my husband for over 8 years with kidney dialysis it is no easy ride but it was worth every moment of it
Man love your channel and your words of wisdom. Great information. I had a pretty nasty breakup. Were I had to walk away and make the decision to leave. But I thank God I had the balls and the strength to walk away all by myself and lived in my car for months after but slowly but surely I picked myself up after feeling sorry for myself. I just realized that my happiness is within me and loving myself. And learning to be happy alone. But still be there for my children thank you again and Namaste
George thanks for these words, I'm 37yrs old and your the reason Im actually am no longer afraid of becoming an older smooth gentlemen
Yes time apart, absence makes the heart grow fonder. My grandmother told me this as a child and it's stuck with me my entire life.
You know so much about a lot of things. YT queued this video for me. The changes from your presentation style are very apparent from then and now.
They always want all my time.
Thank you for opening up to us George.. Honesty and courage.
I guess maybe I knew some of this before I watch this. But just hearing someone say it outloud, blew my mind! It's so true! Thank you for all your videos!
Profound and True...Well along my Journey , Thank you !
You make the coolest videos. Your voice is relaxing and your videos are cozy. I love sitting back with a coffee and a smoke and listening to your thoughts and words of advice
This is probably some of the best advice I’ve ever heard
George man, you know you got to try and remember; not only are you here for us, but we can be here for you
In my pursuit of enlightenment I found the ability to suspend thought for extended periods of time. This ability ends all perceived problems of your life in an instant! Very effective when things need to be delayed.
"Let there be spaces in your togetherness. For the oak and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow..." - Khalil Gibran
George! I just discovered your channel a few days ago, I’m 26 and I must say.. your channel has become a morning dose of meditation/therapy for me! Thanks for all you do and share, my friend!
I am reading now "Philosophy for life and other dangerous situations" - Jules Evans. Besides recommending it to the Moon and back, stoicism is studied and present in several chapters. Quite fascinating.
For those that have had turbulent lives (childhood, relationships, etc...), stoicism is a must. Don't believe what the haters say about it. The man with the ability to control his emotions is the one that lives the fullest life.
I always watched his barber videos but never knew his close ones were affected like this until today....you sir earned my respect. George bruno for world president.
Sir, your talk to me everyday. It's like your experience is mine. However, I learn from you. Thanks.
I am 62..a working musician..and been seeing females from 26 to 44 for the last year or so..I work out with a trainer 3 times a week..run 16 miles a week..i put a portion of my time and money into helping others.. Stoicism is the order of my day..
As I watch this, I am drinking some Texas pecan coffee I just bought last week.
Awakened Samurai Hello there fellow Texan! I enjoy a Texas pecan whole bean from HEB!
Bryant Long I get mine from cirkle k.
Wish I could take care of someone that needs quality care. Value living day to day. Im not going to write a novel but I can live in the solution not the conflict. You are very fortunate. Vetting women is absurd. She should be who she is in her world. We are all the same. That is the problem. I fasted for 6 days and after the 3 rd day I stopped being hungry.I just drank water. By the 6 th day I was the most relaxed I have ever been in my life.My mind was so clear and relaxed. Amazing.
