And so this is when you figure things out. You have these tough conversations and then you're like, wait, you know what? Maybe we aren't compatible after all. And that's okay. This is how we learn by dating people, getting to know them. And then sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. And that's okay. Not everyone you date is supposed to be your next husband or wife.

Because by the way, these conversations going through this stuff is how we learn and grow. Because to me, even if this doesn't work out, or even if it does, this is a real opportunity to have a really great conversation. This is an opportunity to build real intimacy.

If you both can come at it from a vulnerable place and just have a conversation of like, I totally get why you want me to meet your family. I realize that that's so important to you as it should be. You know, your family is the most important people to you and their opinion matters. And I value that and I respect that. I think because it's only been a month, I'm having a difficult time with that.

And so maybe we could just meet in the middle and push it off a couple more months, whatever it is, you know? And maybe you say, you know, because I don't know, like, I just think everything stems from childhood. So being able to express that of like, why is it too soon for you? You know, or why does she feel this urgency to have you meet the family? Like I would...

I would come at it from curiosity of like just asking questions to understand like what that need really is about. That's how you develop real intimacy. Okay. How to break up with someone you love, but you know, isn't your forever person. That is the hardest thing. That really is the hardest thing to do. I think it's just that. It's that conversation.

I think when you end things with people, it can be that honest. I think it should be that honest. I think it's, I'm in love with you. I just know long term. And for whatever reason, I mean, you can list why, or, you know, but those are the hardest breakups when you break up, not for love lost, but because you know, it's not right for you or, you know, it's not your forever person.

And that's really hard. I really empathize with that. Those breakups take a long time to get over, I think. And it just takes time. And I also have an episode about breaking up and how to help a breakup. If you guys are going through a breakup and you miss that one,

But I think this shows how strong you are as a person because if you're able to make yourself a priority like this, I think that's huge. And I think everyone should make themselves a priority. I think a lot of people are stuck in unhappy relationships. And that breaks my heart because life really is so short. And...

yeah, while there's going to be temporary pain for three, four, five months, whatever it is, if you know, it's not your forever person, that's going to be a lifetime of that always in the back of your mind. And so, yeah, ripping off the bandaid, knowing it's going to be painful, knowing it's going to be really hard, but still doing it shows a real level of strength and power, honestly.

And I don't mean power, like abusing power. I mean, like I think it's important for all of us to realize how powerful we are and how we can really... shape our lives how we want them to be. We are in the driver's seat of our lives and doing scary stuff like that is where we really start to build confidence with ourselves and really start to love and value ourselves.
