Dumped for Someone Less Impressive Than You!? | Coach Ken
1 on 1 Coaching call: realcoachken.com/
Getting dumped for someone who seems less impressive than you can be a challenging and confusing experience.
You might feel confused and shocked, wondering why your partner would leave you for someone who appears to be less impressive or less compatible, which triggers insecurity to an even higher degree.
Self-Doubt is a common reaction which causes you to question your own self worth and feel insecure. You might start to doubt your attractiveness, intelligence, or overall value.
Feelings of anger and resentment towards your ex-partner and their new partner may arise. You might feel betrayal or that you were unfairly treated or that the new partner is not deserving.
You may find yourself constantly comparing yourself to the new partner, trying to understand what they have that you don't. This can lead to unhealthy thought patterns and increased anxiety. The fact that you seem to be the better choice can actually trigger obsession and magnify the pain and anxiety of an already excruciating breakup.
In this video Coach Ken explains some of the principles that can pull you out of the hurt and hyper-analysis compulsion that comes when you find yourself dumped for someone less impressive.

    I have been trying to get back my ex for 4 months- she is the love of my life. l met her in church Sun we held hands & kissed. Two days later l get knock on my door - 3 police officers served me with an order of protection. I was devastated- we went to court told judge we were together and l loved her & still do but l will do whatever she wants. Outside courtroom l told her l gave you with u want- l’m sorry we couldn’t work it out and l wanted to spend my life with you. She couldn’t even looked me in the eye. Yet lm still hoping she comes back to me- hard to do cause there is a restraining order against me unless she drops it. Devastated it was one of the worst day of my life yet l still love her & would take her back.

    I'm definitely not interested in someone like that if they slept with someone else because the entire time never was sexual with me whoever that was because nobody else has been with me in that way for 18 years. And I'm certainly not sexually interested in somebody that's with somebody else like that. Not in my account like that. Person is sleeping with somebody else hell na they're not my partner I don't even want in my account like that. THE PERSON LIKE THAT KEEP AWAY FROM ME LIKE THAT.

    I'm not doing no contact because someone ended a relationship with me, I'm doing it to get respect and an apology from someone. I'm not sure if this is the right thing to do though? I tried using words at first but they fell on deaf ears. He was stalking my socials for a while but seems to have stopped now. I'm not sure if he knows that all it would take would be a simple apology and I'd take him back...

That being said, the bottom line is she made a clean break/no contact, and this talk is really helping me to not reach out trying any of those 3P's.

Along with a close friend of mine in the same day. So do I stay in no contact until she reaches out to me? And what do I tell those she reaches out to say to her?

    Coach Ken, my ex came back but insisted that we're not exclusive. She then saw a girl call my cell and now shes passive aggressive, ignored my text to meet up. It's not fair how entitled shes acting. I pushed to meet and talk and she ignored me.. what does this mean for me? I tried to show her i still cared about her. She took a day to respond. I got a little pissy about the disrespect and now she ignored me.. she knows in on the hook now and i look unattractive

    How do you handle "no contact" when you still live together and co parenting your kids? You're both there for the kids, one (me) wants to be with the other (him) the other has said "i don't want to be with you anymore i will always love you " but he stays and then gives mixed signals showing he does care. That gives me mixed feelings and instead of being spiteful and stubborn, i forgive/forget and seem to do the "denial" thing in hopes to keep things going positively. I am almost always willing to do whatever he wants to do, i go off of his Mood and the way he acts towards me. I realize how all of this sounds and honestly it doesn't even sit well saying all of this. TBH it feels as though i am belittling myself. After watching this amd seeing the comments i figured i could be open and letting myself be vulnerable is something i don't just openly do, most of the time anyway. im hoping to get some advice or feedback to help me by sharing this. Is there a way to turn my feelings off being in this situation? He seems to know how to do that. How can i truly be happy when my needs/wants aren't getting met anymore by this man. I've told him in several occasions what is missing and what i need from him. To date, nothing has changed, i get no response, no reaction. Its like talking to a wall and life keeps on going. Ugh! Help...... please....... anything will do at this point. I would be incredibly grateful. What should i do or not do, it would be so helpful and definitely boost my confidence just to know how others have dealt with similar situations.

    • @CoachKen
      @CoachKen День тому

      Its referred to as "smart/strategic/modified no contact" - The key is to try to be "on display" by letting him see you up close and consistently NOT chasing or trying to plead with him into staying. The core principle of no contact is really just not showing signs of pursuit/persuasion/pleading to get the other person back - so you can even be living with someone and not give them the consistent reassurance of your affection and desire. It's difficult because you're in a position to feel reminded of what your losing by seeing them so often which makes the instinct to pursue them greater - but fight that instinct and let them SEE YOU up close and consistently preparing to live without them. When they see you strong enough to not chase them even in close proximity that creates a sense of loss they likely aren't expecting - the drawback is it can be very painful for you to in essence pretend to not want them - but its not pretending as much as its you displaying the self worth to not chase someone who has made it clear they don't want to be with you. I hope that helps - if not you can schedule a call with me at realcoachken.com to go over more details. I know a short message can miss some relevant points.

    I am borderline (quiet, high functional) and while I did contribute my share of dysfunction in relationship (that since ended) I was in fact the one getting abused (gaslighting). Currently, I have no issues not reaching out, but I am being hoovered constantly. However, I don't have self respect not to answer, becasue I am still attached. And it breaks me every time. On some weird masochistic level I am sure I am actually enjoying this, it's all I've known. I am sorry for all victims of abuse. My mother is also borderline, that is where I got it from and the psychological damage done is immesurabe. I wish everyone - with bpd or getting abused by us to be able to heal from this and move on with our lives.

      He's talking about the disconnect that happens when someone with ADHD explains their experience to people who refuse to accept anything other than their idea of normal behavior. The right person, the people that really care will either listen and accept or find middle ground, or else won't really need all that much justification from you in the first place. He's saying people with ADHD often feel so guilty, wrong and faulted that they constantly look for justification for their actions, but the right people don't need all that

    I hate to break it to you love birds, but most people do not come back. They move on to something better for them or stay single a long time, and even if they miss you, ego controls most people and they won’t want to admit their mistakes. No contact is for YOU to move on, heal, and meet someone better for you. Don’t wait on anyone. Move on with your new lessons.

I wasn’t the best boyfriend and I had a bad temper and I can’t stop beating myself up. Now I feel like I pushed her away and she removed me from the lease and moved into our apartment without me and immediately signed up for dating apps… I’m devastated… I feel completely replaced. Her family never liked me, and said I’m never going to be able to provide for her. I can’t help but feel they are happy she left me. I feel tossed away like trash.

I’ve actually presented myself as. All definitely need to be more disciplined and set better boundaries and standards this time around. I truly want things to work again which I do because I love her dearly, but I don’t want the same problems to happen again. Thank you for this coach.
