 Five months in love with a man that will not have a relationship with me, he says, because he has been hurt two times, he will not do it again. Why can't we just do what we are doing? He says, well, and so this is about you, right? So he's getting what he needs. That's what he's saying right there. When he says, why can't we just do what we are doing? What he's saying is I'm getting all my needs met. Why can't we just stop right here? And so what you need to decide is whether one of your needs is having something more or not, whether it's the label, whether it's the ring, whether it's whatever it is that you feel like you need, you need to decide whether that's one of your needs and whether that's something that you absolutely want or not. And if it is something that you absolutely want, you need to pull away and start seeing other people and kind of let him alone and stop sleeping with him, stop making, getting his needs met, right? Because if he's getting all his needs met and he doesn't care about your needs, then he's not going to do anything about it. But if you pull away and you're like, okay, okay, I'm gonna find somebody that is willing to give me what it is that I want, if you're not willing to, then he's gonna do one of two things. Either one, he's gonna step up and start being a man for you and start actually being compassionate and making sure that you are getting your needs met or he's gonna end up saying, okay, it's not worth it to do this again. I'm too scared, my inner child is hurt too much and I'm just gonna walk away from it, right? It's gonna be one of those two things. He's either gonna step up to the plate and become the man that you want him to be or he's gonna walk away completely and decide that it's not worth it for him. And that's a choice that he has to make. And if you're coming from a place of power, which is what I suggest and I've talked about in some of these other videos, I think you've been in some of the other live streams and you've probably seen me talk about kind of coming from this place of power instead of the place of force, that's where you need to be coming from. So that there's choice. So that he has a choice and he makes a choice whether he wants to be with you or not.
