How To Get Back Up When Love Brings You Down

"Pain is a gift in shitty wrapping"-- LOVE that, Bern!  What a powerful truth. 

Thankyou for inspiring me, i started to give up hope, after a toxic relationship, which has effected my self esteem. After being in a drawn out relationship of empty promises, i need brush myself off n rebuild my confidence again.

Yes needed this encouragement!! Love the analogy

Thank you Bern for all of these great videos.  I watch them all and they are always spot on and so genuine. They really do make a difference.  Keep on being the great person you are.

In connection with above, if you think I must postpone getting to know him, can you please guide me on how to be patient because a part of me longs to connect with him daily. Right now I dont contact him at all (but it's frustrating at times) and despite connecting with my own friends often, this urge to want to touchbase with him daily doesnt go away.

Hi Bern, thanks for your vlog. Am addicted to coming in here often now ( in a good way of course!). Can I ask you something? How does one approach dating when being a work in progress? Should I postpone the dating as I am in the process of creating a life I love or would you recommend getting to know the person side-by-side?

This guy I met set me off the path to finding the true me. While i like getting to know him and hoping for us to date exclusively, I am not sure how to ask for what I want. Or if I have a right to make that ask? What I want is his steady regular attention to me via phone calls and one on one conversations with a specific purpose instead of random texts. At least once a week. Given that am not in a great position myself do you think am jumping the gun here? I really think he likes me too and do not know how to approach such conversations.
