Stop Chasing Emotionally Unavailable People (Listen To This To Attract a Long Term Relationship And Stop Wasting Your Time In The Wrong Ones) With Lisa Bilyeu

I will choose purpose over a family event. Radhi will choose family over a purpose event for her. Neither is right or wrong, it's just who we are. And I love that for her. If she would choose to go and spend time with her family over an event that I had to go to, I would love that for her. Why? It makes her the person I love.

The reason she's so adorable and lovable and everything is because of her value. And why would she be happy for me to choose purpose over the family event? Because she knows that's what makes me lovable. The man that she loves, the man that she admires, the man that she respects is that man who makes that choice.

So you trying to change your partner's values are gonna make them less of the person you love and more of the person you don't love. You're actually gonna take away from them their spark and their joy and their heart and their value and everything and you're actually gonna become their kryptonite and shrink them because you're taking away what they value.

Yeah, absolutely. There's three things. The first is you have to check whether that person wants to change and how they want to change and who they want to be. And that will take time because it will take time for them to open up and admit

Because let's say they want to be that person they were before, that's hard for them to admit because it feels really far for them and they feel it's quite impossible. So in the beginning, they may say, I don't want to talk about it. In the beginning, they may say, no, I love who I am. In the beginning, they may say, no, I'm happy with how life's going.

But those are just defense mechanisms to not really go there because they find it an unimaginable task to become that person again. So you have to be patient and check and that will take time. The second thing after checking and seeing if they're even ready for change, if they are, is are you open to being the person that is now required of you while they change? Are you willing to be patient?

Are you willing to shift? Are you willing to adjust in order to be patient now that you know how they're changing and where they're growing and going? It's all about you, it's not about them. It's about, are you okay with that? And then the third is, are you willing to fall in love with them again?

Are you willing to fall in love with the same person again now that they're a different person or are you not? So it's all about you. We think it's about them. I'll give you a really practical example. I was working with someone years ago now and they had discovered that their partner was addicted to porn.

and it was really hurtful to them because they didn't want to be in a partnership where the other person had this addiction. So their first reaction was, this has to end, I can't be with this person, I thought they were the one, I can't believe it.

When they sat themselves down and finally got the partner to open up, who by the way was ashamed, guilty, dealing with all of their stress around this themselves, the partner finally said, I don't want to have this addiction either. I really want to work on it. So now we move to question number two.
