    Reasons Why People Breakup | They Said "I Need To Find Myself"
    ↓↓↓ READ MORE ↓↓↓
    A young lady had reached out to Coach Adrian, telling him that her ex boyfriend broke up with her because he needed to find himself. Quite often, people reach out to Coach Adrian because their exes needs to find themselves, and it’s a topic that is very common and applies to a lot of you all over the world. It's one of the reasons why people breakup and we’re here to give you guidance if you hear those words, “I need to find myself,” “It’s not you it’s me,” “Give me some time.”
    One of the most popular reasons why people breakup is they said "I need to find myself." It happens mostly to women, or to people who are dating men who are not fulfilled professionally, and it can also happen to men and women in a time of midlife crisis, or when in an “empty nest.” A lot of times, this need to reinvent oneself, based on the fact that someone is not happy with where they are at this stage of their life, to where they think they would be. Many women have reached out to Coach Adrian over the years because of partners who, all of a sudden, out of nowhere, start to blame the relationship for pain, struggles, or because they are not happy with their life, or specifically, with their professional life.
    And you should not take this personally. It’s not your fault. A lot of times when someone tells you they need to find themselves, believe them because it’s true. People are unhappy, and they are not unhappy because of you, or because of the relationship. They are unhappy because of where they are. So give them time and space. Let them realize that they are going to be less happy without you, than they were with the safety net of the relationship.
    The mistake that most people make is that they cling on. They cling on because they are afraid to lose their partner, they are afraid that finding themselves will happen with another man or another woman. And because you stand to suck in, or take in that insecurity that your partner has carried with them for quite a while, you latch on, you beg, you plead, you start to devalue your worth, you lower your standards, you try to match your partner’s self worth just out of fear of losing them. That is a recipe for disaster. That is not the way that you want to approach this.
    Bet on yourself. Focus on making yourself happy. Choose to take on that challenge of being single as well. And sooner or later, they will realize that they have made a big mistake. That they still have to deal with those same insecurities, and that you’re not there to bail them out, you’re not there to support them, to validate them.
    Sometimes it takes a little bit of time. If you’re patient, strong, supportive, in letting them figure themselves out, they will come running back. They WILL come running back. You don’t have to cut off all contact, but you can’t be needy, you can’t chase. You can’t chase someone who tells you that they need to find themselves. You need to give them that space. That is the best breakup advice that we can give you.

    This is exactly what happened to me this time last year and i managed to stay strong, 6 months after he left we found ourselves back together. It was NOT easy and you should only do it for a person you deeply care for and love but it does work and makes things better in the long run.

      Did you have contact sometimes? I saw here after 5 weeks of no contact. She wanted so much to hug me, and she is thinking she is abnormal and have a mental problem. She said she destrojed something inside here, and she will never be in love with someone. Is is so hard. But after 6 weeks and deep reflection and still so much feelings for here i think it worth it to let her do it.

    You guys it's easier to accept the break up , cry and listen to music but after a while please do yoursef a favor and find something positive through the pain. Find a project , go to school , start a business and get out there and mingle with people .. All isn't lost , life isn't always about loving someone sometimes it's about your life path.

    My girlfriend just left me for this reason and I know she is unhappy and depressed in her life. I support her and this helps get rid of the hurt, knowing I did nothing wrong and that I genuinely care for her. I don't see myself getting back with her and I hope she finds what she's looking for, without me. 😊

He doesn't exactly want to break up but looking for complete space. This video has given me a bit of clarity on the situation 🙏

    This is great but actually kind of false. I'm on the receiving end of this as I left my partner a while back. After that I realize I was much happier by myself. The only reason I am stating this is because I don't want everyone having false hope. That their partner will come back. That is just living in a fantasy. I don't think anyone should wait around for their partner to find themselves but live for yourself... and don't get to absorb in it.

It's extremely messing with my head, but I told her I understand, we can be friends still, but we need to have space when I actually hated the very thought of even saying that. I hope the time for her pays off for herself and hopefully me if she wants me back. I feel this is true love I've never shown for someone, to let them go and me left here alone and miserable for the time being. 😭

  • @RobinApplewood
    @RobinApplewood 4 года назад +18

    This just happened to me. As much as it hurts (so much!) and its confusing because we both admittedly really Love each other, Im not holding out for her to come running back. I want her to find herself too, so that if we do happen to come back together it will be from a less co-dependent place. Some of the hardest work we do have to do on our own, so that we can be more stable and trustworthy partners to others. I plan on opening my heart to new people when I am ready, even though we still may have a good chance down the line.

    Thank you so much. This video is really helpful. My ex said exactly those words that he wasn't happy with me that he needed to find himself & he wanted to be sure whether or not he really wanted to be with me. I was so immature that time. I begged him & chased him. Now, it has been four months without contact, not even on social media anymore as he deactivated all his accounts & ran away. :D Now, I am on my own road to building myself again. Some days I struggle finding out what was wrong & other days my focus is completely on me. I don't even fantasize anymore abt his coming back. Anyway, RUclips channel like this, really helps me a lot. Thanks again to all the amazing coaches here.

I have really grown to love appreciate accepted her I wanted to cherish her for the rest of my life. I need help right now because I can't move on it's too painful I really need help she has cut off all communication with me because she said it's too early or too soon to be friends.

    My ex became depressed over his life. A lot of it has to do with his mother being mentally ill and her latching onto him. I’ve tried encouraging him to get out and go with friends, gym, work. But he chose to stay Him. Ultimately his parents forced him to break up with me and blocked me on everything. I haven’t heard from him since but I’m really worried about his well being.
    Days before he begged me to stay cause he loved me and can’t see himself with anyone else. I truly feel like we had a connection deeper then anything. So it hurts me how I couldn’t help him enough.
    I don’t know what to do. I’ve been told to wait. But I have no hope cause of his parents being involved.

I was able to discover a deeper strength I never knew I had. Realizing I had codependent tendencies I was able to release them. They gave me the space and opportunity to reinvent myself. I've learned what it means to truly love unconditionally. I got to experience the grief, hurt, pain, and disappointment that comes with letting go. The process of rebirthing myself has been painful I'm glad we separated, I was able to learn and grow on my own, on my journey as well as to greater appreciate those who stuck by me from day 1 and have consistently loved me for who I am without ever letting me go.

    I suffer from PTSD, and anxiety which leads to my current or ongoing state of depression from military service. I was taking pills thinking this was the answer, and thought I was in a mediocre job below my qualifications just because I hadn’t found what I was meant to do, but unbeknownst to me and my girl of 3 years I have been depressed for a year at least after we moved to AZ from AK together. After two years here I am still in the same job having trouble finding something that provides stability. She is a high performer, owns two businesses and had finally gotten tired of waiting for my potential to produce something. She was also two weeks out from a bikini comp when we had our first really bad fight and I left. A lot of emotions stress hormones on both sides, but I understand where she comes from. The thing that kills me is I know it’s my depression hindering my effort. We have limited contact and my stuff is all packed up in the garage, but we aren’t talking and I have not been able to see my mental health Doc yet. I am an intelligent, healthy, and educated man with ambitions, but something inside me is broken or not being addressed correctly. I know we can work through it after three years of a lot more happiness than struggle, but i don’t know if she can understand or be patient with the healing process I must go through to get better and focus on being the best version of me. To be clear, I want to go home, and work through things, but she is distant now and I am worried she is completely done. My ex wife left me under similar circumstances with my little girl. My girl is strong, I need to focus on me, but I want us back together when she’s ready. All very surreal.

    WoW! For the first time after viewing so many videos from you guys this is EXACTLY what my situation is! 2 months ago my girl asked me for space and needed some time to figure herself out. I honestly had no clue of what to do but I felt that getting into no contact would have been the best option. Now seeing this video I feel bad because as Coach Adrian said, you can once in a while, at least from what I picked up, stay in touch. Problem is now... these two months with nothing is it a problem? What can I do to show that I’m here but not needy? I’ve worked on myself and feel I’m doing great, but again, because I care for her so much, as a human and for who she is and could be I am more then willing to stick to following a process and at the right time show her that I’ve grown for myself and I am willing to support ber! What could anyone suggest that made it through positively in getting their ex back? It would mean soooo much to me! This situation is me!!!

      I’m in the exact situation bro. I’ve watched a lot of these and from what she told me and what I’ve read is that I need to give her space. The fact that I don’t know how long it’s going to take. Makes me want to pull my hair out. I want nothing but the best for her and for to be happy. She doesn’t want any contact with me. None.

    Ex is 36 with two kids. I’m 28. We were together for almost 7 years and she left me to find herself. I lost my family and I miss them. I love her and I love the kids. She called me a week ago to say we needed 30 days no contact because we were mad at each other and we need to let the anger go. I hope I’m not being strung along.

    My gf is a state of I need some time and space for myself. She was single for 9 years before we got together. She is having a midlife crisis of sorts. New job, our relationship, mental health, and body image issues. Myself I'm in the middle of a nasty divorce. Plus I had a very bad accident at work. The everything happens in threes has me at a breaking point. So I'm going to give her all the time and space she needs, I want her in my life. I'm going to live mine in the mean time. It's been 4 weeks so far, I did no contact but it wasn't a wise choice based on her mental health.

Saying that he needs a long space..

    My fiance broke up with me. His excuse was "I need to find myself". He went directly into a rebound relationship and lied to me about it when I asked if there was someone else. He has been this her now for 8 months. After he left I begged and cried. But he was set on being broken up. After I found out about this other woman, I asked him "why would you do that?" He replied " I don't know." It is amazing when I listen to all the videos how similar things happen and the behaviors people exhibit. I am staying in no contact going on 5 months. Still waiting for the light to come on in his head.

    @MR1HUZTLA 8 месяцев назад

    I can relate to this. My partner of 12 years has recently just asked to find ourselves. Just a bit of a story about what lead up to this is my partner was hurt in our years together and I’ll be honest I wasn’t the most supportive partner and I did cause a lot of pain which lead us to this point and I am noticing that I was so ignorant that it took a break up for me to notice all the signs.
    I moved overseas for her to do this and yes I am obviously missing her so much and the space thing drives me nuts because I’m not use to just blacking her out but I don’t want to devalue my self by begging for her back.
    I am trying my hardest to support her needs because i still want to spend the rest of my life together.
    I really wish I could know what to do to make her satisfied enough to get back together and regain her trust but I guess that’s what self journeying is all about to understand that it’s not her I’m trying to focus on, it’s me who i need to change for “myself” and that she will see the truth if I am really happy with myself.

  • @Dlovely516
    @Dlovely516 5 лет назад +5

    So yes, he had a "plan" for us to take care of some things on our own. But When they "leave" but then don't. It gets complicated and confusing. Then keep luring you in staying in contact pretending to care so you will "stay around". THAT'S when you have to cut off contact. And I didnt. I let him control things per se. I played myself. Not realizing I was allowing him to manipulate me and taking my Love for granted. But when they start having the "grass is greener" syndrome and, "Oh, look at what I can do". Have my cake and eat it too. Things get messy, trust and RESPECT is lost. So even if they say that... try your best to keep focus on you and be mindful that THINGS CAN HAPPEN. People come in, your wants and desires change, they play with your feelings thinking they can come back when they want. YOU have to be in control of YOU. When you purposely put time and space between lovers a lot can happen...if you let it.

    I’m in this exact situation. My boyfriend lost his job, car broke down right after, so then no money, no way to get to a new job. Horrible cycle to it bring him just all the way down. I was with my boyfriend for about a year (friends for a couple years before that). And I’m very proud of my self-control in not begging, I told him I wanted him to do what he needed to find self-happiness, and essentially left the door open, but told him I would not be waiting. It was the most respectful breakup I’ve ever had, and we both don’t think this is the “end” (though I’m essentially treating it as such). We ended one week ago today, and I’m on day 5 of NC. In a breakup with a man dealing with self-doubt/depression, do you still go about things the same way as any other breakup as far as the no contact, and reestablishing contact at a later time.. or in a situation like this do I need to just wait for him to come to me? I made sure he knew I held no resentment and to feel safe if/when he was ready, but I need to just pretty much wait him out, yeah?

    • @LoveAdviceTVCommunity

      Hey Tiff, yes, he needs to feel and think, "Crap... I lost a great woman because I didn't get over my own sh*t! I need to fix this before I lose her." It's only been 5 days. You need to give him time to REALLY feel the loss. You did good though! Good job! - Coach Adrian

    • @amandatiffany7882
      @amandatiffany7882 5 лет назад +1

      Love Advice TV Yes, I should wait for him to come to me? Or yes that I can establish contact after a good amount of NC? His whole thing is he wasn’t very happy where he was in life financially before, and since losing his job and then his car- it affected absolutely everything around him, down to even just being mentally present for his child. And he said he wrestled with the idea of breaking for a little while in not wanting to lose me, but didn’t know how to give anything right now, that he was so mentally exhausted. I said I understood. He said it was a “right person, wrong time”. We both cried quite a bit, but I never once tried to change his mind. But after our talk ended, he told me he felt so relieved, which really hurt my feelings, though I still stood strong. In watching a lot of these vids after the fact, I actually feel so confident in my actions though. Thank you guys for all that you do.

    This really helped me im going through it right now. My partner 29 wants to be alone he's moving out of our home after xmas. His reason is that he just wants to be on his own. He finished his masters in August and he hasn't found work. He bases his value on that as he's turning 30 soon. I'm 5 years older and I try to reassure him most people arent always where they picture themselves at 30. He said he's lost and doesn't know what to do. As hard as it is i'm trying to be supportive logically he's not getting work as we are in lockdown in Ireland and there are not much jobs in his finance field. I love him, my heart is broken but i'm not pleading or begging or fighting with him to stay because I don't want to build resentment and I want him to be happy and fulfilled in himself. I guess only time will tell. Thanks for this video.

He wanted me to keep her while he ran around and was sneaking women in his house. I broke it off completely. I was being used and his whole line of I need to find myself was BS he just wanted to find himself in some one else’s pants. Luckily it was a phone call from the husband and several other people that told me what was really going on. I am worth more than that and I am happier now with out him.

I was clingy and needy because I was scared to lose him because he is my first love and the person I envision a future with. Now we decided to be friends with benefits but I’m still so in love with him. We saw each other about a week ago and he said every time he sees me he gets confused about everything so he asked for space and time.

      As someone who continued sleeping with my ex, I realized I was having sex because I wanted to feel that he loved me because I didn’t love myself. The best thing you can do is walk away. Know your worth. Don’t settle for less than what you really want. If you really love him and want to be with him, don’t settle for the scraps he’s giving you. Set boundaries. If he wants you, he has to meet your standards. Nothing less. You will stay in this cycle if you don’t put your foot down. I personally had to walk away and go no contact. But he respects me so much more since I stopped settling. Now he knows if he wants me in his life, he has to treat me like how I deserve to be treated. Which is like a Queen (:

    My boyfriend of two years broke up with me today. We've been living together since for a while now and even had plans on expanding our living space. Then, what seems out of no where he said in the morning that our fights are to much and he doesn't know how to handle them. Later in the day he said he needs space, he needs to find himself. He told me it's not me but I can't bring myself to believe it even though it's probably true. At first yeah I broke down in the bathroom and I didn't want to believe it was over. But the thing is, he's done this before. Before, about 6 months in he said he didn't like how fast we were going and we took a break. During that time I was struggling with depression, and fear for what my future looked like. I had a panic attack in the bathroom in the middle of the night and it woke him up. He thought I was having an asthma attack but the paramedic's told him it was a panic attack. He's never seen me have one so he didn't know what to do. The rest of the night he broke down and told me how much he loves me and how he never wants to see me like that. Back to today. After watching this video I do have hope. He's been struggling with work trying to get his certification in I.T. and it hasn't been working out the way he hoped. I didn't think of it the way you explained but I'm starting to see that maybe he's feeling like he's failed. I myself have a stable income and make twice as much as him. I apologized to him for my out burst earlier and told him I just want him to be happy, we need space to really find what we think is missing. I love this man with everything and he's reassured me he loves me too. I won't give up

Like i was nothing. Thanks Darling.. thanks for telling me how much you love me. First Boy you wanna have kids with? First Big love? Wanna be forever with me? The was people left you, show you how they loved you. She just ignored me. Words lie, actions dont. I always told her that. Iam very sad, i move on, but i still love her. Iam happy, i didnt have seen her since 2 months I think. Iam happy not to see her, because iam affraid of her, you never know, the first time we broke up, i saw her with another Boy. The second, third, fourth and fifth time I saw her with another dudes... I mean, how ofthen can she break a broken heart? I asked her about that, she told me: i didnt know what iam doing. Anyways I wish her all best, because I lovee her, but god gave you a head to think, if she didnt use it right, she will never know what i was for her. Nobody would love her like i did.
