The Dark Truth About Long-Term Relationships 

Yes! I join you in thanking you ❤

Humanity is in the Dark Ages from all points of view, including food, basic rights like free speech, and dimmed sunlight.

It’s always been there in the dark ages, but now we are starting to really see that. The internet has shown us what has been really happening in this world.

They censored my answer, but still they sent me notifications for other comments in the thread. How thoughtful of them.

Exactly, same here. All the best❤

Word.

She is beyond good and I do believe that a lot of these people deriding her here are government plants.

Same. At one point longevity was THE ONLY thing that kepts us together... Imagine how horrified I was when I cought myself thinking "How other people will react if we divorce?" That was the moment I knew something was seriously wrong

@@meileverse same! By the time I told my parents, I had gone through every possible discussion and was totally at peace with it. I see now that peoples’ reactions are a reflection of what they’re going through and I don’t take it personally

You’re describing attachment which has nothing to do with love haha

Not true. Love is not ment to be always sunny and rainbow. Teal is more speaking about perfect relationship and even she concluded there is none or extremely rare.@lsAndAnarchist

@@salonez91 again, you’re describing attachment, not love. “The perfect romantic relationship” Is merely an image that many, many people attach to. And all of them have a different idea of how the image is supposed to look. Love is unconditional, and if it’s not unconditional, it’s just another form of attachment masquerading as love.

Unconditional love is a myth. Obviously adult love is conditional. But respect is crucial.

@@CoraBellotto it’s really not. But I have noticed that very few people find it. That is because, it is in the present, where everything “real” exists. And most people live instead in their imaginations, thinking they’re in the past or the future. Stuck in a personal narrative which doesn’t “exist” outside your head. What Buddhists call “the dream state” or “samsara” I’ll take that statement as a sad one, that you know neither the difference between reality and your conceptual frameworks And you don’t know the difference between attachment and love yet But don’t feel too bad; it’s very rare that I meet someone who actually does

Right women get bored with safety security comfort peace serenity and tranquility. They dissapear from the Good Men's life. Good Luck

Did you learn anything from the video? 🤔🤔

@@Invisibility397what a dumb and irrelevant generalization…

My grandma and grandpa met at 16!! They literally stayed til death do them part. My grandma was an amazing painter her house full of paintings.. my grandpa a Freemason died at 81 and I always thought it was so beautiful that they have all of those memories and years shared together? Who tf even stays that long! It's a bunch of empty promises mostly only to never be held again by that friend/relationship but my grandma and grandpa they had a beautiful simplistic house they were so peaceful my grandpa on his death bed said "never give up on the one you love, you can be mad we all make mistakes but don't give up on your truest love" The happiest year of my life was 2019 I lived in a beautiful peaceful home with my grandparents before the wrong boys fucked up my mental... And even still 2019 was the best because of them... 😢

Yeah, that’s one frustration I have when teal does episodes on topics and doesn’t go into what is needed or does look like, just exposes an issue or shadow and leaves it there.

@@wittjablonski2699 you stole my thoughts, I felt the same incompleteness, I really want to know her approach to the way we can address these patterns and resolve and to know how does doing it look like. What I wrote in the original comment is my answer to same 😊

I agree with your assessment of it. A consciously beneficial relationship seems to be one that's governed by light (vs shadow) compatibility and a genuine willingness to heal and move into a healthy connection.

Its always easier to point out the problems then it is to give solutions i guess... I wasn't aware that people assumed that longevity of a relationship = good relationship... If you come from a culture were Women are .. i guess oppressed you know this is not the case.. We are not all enlightened beings.. We are a work in progress.. So being in a somewhat "dysfunctional" relationship of some kind is understandable.. Iam no Guru or anything but i found that being vulnerable and letting your partner know what issues you have then working on them helps inspire them to be vulnerable in return.. The key is to genuinely be working on yourself without expecting anything in return.. Let them work on themselves.. Meditation helps alot..

Look into secure attachment. That's the goal in relationships. There are wonderful resources on RU-vid such as Heidi Priebe and Thais Gibson (Personal Development School).

They can judge all they want. What’s the problem?

@HomeschoolingDepot1 Yes they are happy like mother with a child. Grandma paid with her health. They are enmeshed and will never see the truth. God bless them.

Yes…this what the world like, approve, applaud and revere as a great success/love story and present it as the ultimate goal that we should all live by! It’s every married couple’s goal…for better or for worse…actually they should clarify this in the vows as through narcissism and enmeshment, through codependency and trauma bonding…till death do us part!! 😅😅 Maybe that’ll make the dream princess happily ever after weddings less misleading to the naive young girls and boys attending them!! 😂 Until then only people who are divorced or separated will see otherwise! Even Teal doesn’t explain a solution to this properly in my opinion… Cause in a different video she talks about how the universe loves a loose-loose scenario and whatever path you chose to walk into will determine your great success…in spite it being for the right or wrong reasons… I’m actually confused about this…😞

You can't change what you don't acknowledge. You're already very aware. Stay strong & clear.

Only way to prosperity is to learn Natural / Spiritual / God (our world and the world beyond) Law and to unite / bound together. Work as Groups of conscious people. The rest will follow.

😢I’m so very sorry!!!!!!

yep, because if you're jealous of them they must be doing something right, even if that is the only validation.

@@kyleydiamond I hate them.

This was illuminating. There's a lot of shame and avoidance these relationship examples. Now I'll go see what you say about dealing with shame.

Thank you Teal 🙏

I wish more creators did this. Thank you Teal, I love you.

Teal “swan” will just never sit right with me.

@@mmehendale3624 I don't think you understand how to use quotations.

I agree, I'm in a long term relationship, but I'm not happy about it.

Oh my god yeeess!!!

Yes please!!

I'd also love it if she addressed the shaming of female sexuality especially by weak men and jealous women.

@@carlyofearth HELLYESS

@@carlyofearth What does the strenght of a man have to do with whether he shames a woman sexuality or not?

you are not a failed human if you don't find a 60 year partner. I hope you feel LOVE, I hope you have meaningful connections in your life, but I hope Teal's message also highlights to not define your value by one idea of a relationship. if you feel like a failure until you're married for 60 years that's a big hole

I'm wondering where your past trauma came from. For me, it is primarily from my parents who were also traumatized by their parents. Trauma and dysfunction is generational in my family. My grandparents and parents were married forever just like in your family. My mother married someone abusive just like her father, my grandfather. I can see how I'm just like my mother and grandmother. I don't stay in my marriages however. And I'm glad because I am making an effort to break the tradition. Look at yourself as brave and not a failure ❤

⁠@@taylorfausett177most trauma comes from family of origin. If OP is admiring parents’ and grandparents’ relationship longevity but had trauma get in the way of their own relationship, chances are they have yet to see the reality of the relationships between parents and grandparents. Merely supporting each other is not a sign of a healthy relationship. The question is what their motives are for being supportive. A lot of support comes from a place of codependency.

When you say I choose to stick to love, what you are saying is I choose to stick to consciousness because that’s what love actually is. If you can have a relationship in which you are conscious all the time and the other person is as well, all the power to you but it’s highly unlikely. Most relationships are made of unconsciousness with at best intermittent flashes of consciousness so love is very fleeting if it’s there at all.

I'm also going to pop in and recommend a book- communion by bell hooks. it's about "women's search for love" and talks about all different relationships in which we can find love.

That's a good viewpoint. You cannot control how long the relationship will last . That depends on who you are dealing with also, but you are only in control of yourself and all you can do is give it your best shot😘

Yea, I believe that, even coming into this human body, is a form of dysfunction. It’s like we come here to play for a bigger cause. This is not the end all be all so the journey is dysfunctional in and of itself.

👏🏼

if all of us is dysfunctional,we would fit standard of being functional

@@stairway5008The fact that a majority of people is a certain way might mean it’s normal but it doesn’t mean it’s healthy.

@@CLCL748 how do you define healthy?like human cant see object 10 km away but eagles can ,do you define that unhealthy?

I understand how you feel completely.

Sounds precisely like me in my 20 yr relationship. His consciousness is rigid & high school level.

My pleasure! Friend, I'm happy to support those who are putting good vibrations out in the world. I have a suite of heart focused meditations on my YT channel that are all designed to help calm and balance your nervous system. No matter what you struggle with balancing your nervous system can improve your health.

Let go of those labels that you’ve experienced and choose to believe the truth I have seen reading your comment, you are aware, you have awoken, you may not have the relationship you deserve yet, but you will and even if you don’t…you’re conscious of “why we do what we do” so choose the freedom this brings 🙏🏻✨

@@randomelvis3359Thank you, that is really kind of you to say! The reason why I am kind of attached to these labels, especially the BPD one, is because it definitely puts explanation to my entire life, and I figured that out that December, so it's kind of relieving in a way. It doesn't make it easier or better, but it puts an explanation behind it all. And I guess that what you are saying is right, I have become aware of a lot, and I know a lot more about everything, that is going on with me, my life and my family , and it does bring some kind of freedom, indeed.

@@randomelvis3359 Thank you, that is very kind of you! And you're right, it does bring a certain level of freedom to be aware of yourself, and your life, your family, etc. Gotta use what you got, right?

Get a homeopath and live your life.

I agree
