  • Hey, it's Clayton and in this video, I'm going to talk about neediness. I'm gonna talk about

  • how to stop being insecure, how to stop being clingy in your relationships, and really how

  • to get this part of your life, or at least start getting this part of your life under

  • control. Now the inspiration for this video is— a couple conversations a couple coaching

  • clients that I've been working with recently who when we got to the crux of what was actually

  • happening between them and their partner was that they had this incredible fear of putting

  • pressure on their partner by expressing their needs. They thought, “God you know I just

  • don't want to be clingy. These are the things that I'm needing from him or that I'm wanting

  • to see this is what I want.” And even getting to that place where they can say, “you know

  • what it is that they wantwas a bit of a struggle. But once we got there then the

  • objection came up: “Well I could never say that because then I would be putting pressure

  • on him and he might leave me,” or, “I don't want to come off like I'm desperate

  • or controlling. I don't want to disrespect his time by asking for what I want.” And

  • see this type of thinking, if you can relate to anything that I just said there, it's this

  • type of thinking that actually keeps us locked in this state of need and we were locked in

  • the state of need that is what creates the neediness in the relationship. So, see you

  • might be noticing there's a little bit of a paradox here that if you want to escape

  • this neediness view, if you want to no longer be needy or clingy in a relationship, you

  • actually have to express the need because expressing the need allows that feeling to

  • complete itself. Perfect example, I was working with a woman who had told me that she was

  • losing sleep that she couldn't even function at work because the man that she had been

  • dating, she was falling in love with and she had been with him for several months now,

  • and she wanted so bad to tell him that she loved him and she just couldn't bring herself

  • to do it. So, after dealing with this for a while, she finally worked up the courage

  • and she said it and what happened was that she transformed in the relationship after

  • that she felt this total burden just lift from her chest all this weight of holding

  • this in just go away and suddenly the relationship was able to move to the next phase. So, because

  • she's able to express that it's almost like a declaration that she makes to herself of

  • yeah I deserve to be seen for who I am in the relationship. My authentic real self

  • is worth it to come out in the relationship.” And that's really where miracles happen in

  • the relationship, I see a lot of relationships end because people are afraid of expressing

  • need because what they think is gonna happen is that they're gonna put too much pressure

  • on their partner. They think that they need to minimize themselves, that they need to

  • discount what it is that they're wanting in order to be in a relationship. And ironically

  • that is the exact type of thinking that actually causes relationships to end because if you

  • are not showing up in the relationship and expressing your need, what ends up happening

  • is, you as a woman, you as a man, actually disappear in the relationship. Because you

  • are perhaps becoming whatever you think the other person wants or maybe you are completely

  • withdrawn and the other person doesn't really even know who you are then because when they

  • know what it is that you want and what you need suddenly you appear as a real human being

  • in the relationship. And you also by expressing your need give your man or your woman a clear

  • roadmap of how to satisfy you of how to be in the relationship to create moments of happiness

  • and without that expression of need the other person is kind of flying blindly. So, the

  • first thing that we're doing here just even by talking about this is we're beginning to

  • reframe that you being able to ask for what you want in a relationship, whether it's reassurance,

  • whether it is more presence, whether it is a deeper listening or just more security,

  • that gives your partner a gift. It allows you to show up as somebody that they now have

  • a roadmap for of like how to love and how perhaps make happy. And it really creates

  • this clarity where you both can figure out where you stand with each other. And that's

  • what allows the intimacy to deepen. It's this of trying to avoid this conflict trying to

  • avoid expressing what it is that we want that actually creates the conflict, that actually

  • creates a separation and the lack of intimacy in the relationship. Now let's distinguish

  • this component of putting pressure on somebody, “Okay well that sounds great Clayton. I

  • want to express. I want more time or more attention or maybe I want to see my partner

  • more often. But you know they're going through a lot right now and I don't want to be a burden

  • on them. How do we fix that?” Well here's the difference between in terms of communication,

  • what makes it pressure and a burden versus what actually makes it clean communication

  • that allows the other person the freedom to fulfill on it and maybe feel good about it.

  • The difference is this: when you are expressing your need, are you asking the person to fulfill

  • it from them being in a place of not being okay? Are you making them not okay because

  • you have a need? So, for example: Am I blaming you because I'm not getting the presence that

  • I want? Am I saying things like you should be more this or you should be more that or

  • am I assuming that I know your intentions behind why this need of mine is not being

  • met? Because see if I'm assuming that I know your intentions without actually talking to

  • you about it, without actually expressing the need from a clean place, the other person's

  • listening shuts down because they suddenly feel like they are pushing off this attack

  • and they have to become defensive. So how you keep the communication clean is by ensuring

  • that they are okay, that you are making them okay with your communication which means you're

  • not making assumptions about their intention. And if you are not thinking that, if that

  • they know better, that they are purposefully not fulfilling this need because they're trying

  • to be mean to you, or they're trying to create a reaction. Now just that alone seeing that

  • maybe that person is just actually they just don't know is that you want allows you to

  • communicate from a place of where you're saying rather than saying for instance, “you know

  • you never do this, we never hang out anymore, or we never have these deep conversations,

  • or you never listen to me, or you're always on your phone, you're never present,” which

  • is all the blame making them not okay. It's saying something to the effect of, “I'm

  • really feeling like I'm needing more attention, maybe it's my insecurities. But I'm really

  • wanting some reassurance from you, right. I know it's not in your intention but I'm

  • feeling a bit neglected. I'm feeling a bit unsure. I'm feeling a bit alone in the relationship

  • and what I'm wanting is X Y Z. What I'm wanting is for us to be together more often or to

  • have more conversations during the week.” Now see, what you're doing there is you're

  • owning your experience. You're owning your experience and you're not blaming them for

  • your experience. You're naming your experience. Naming it out loud which is irrefutable right.

  • No one can argue with your experience and that's what makes it clean. And the next you're

  • following with a request of what it is that you would like. Now a lot of this also has

  • to do with the way in which you approach, the tone, body language and just the intention

  • that you have. And communicating this is also really important. So, it really is trusting

  • that maybe the other person, the reason that you're not feeling like you're getting what

  • you want out of the relationship or the interaction is not because of something that's wrong with

  • you or something that they're doing on purpose to try to deny you, it's rather they might

  • just be ignorant. So, when you assume that it might be that they're just ignorant it

  • frees you up to say, “Ah okay. This is an opportunity for growth for us to go deeper

  • so, on a service of the relationship, to respect the relationship, to respect our connection,

  • I must insert my voice into this dynamic.” So, he has the opportunity or she has the

  • opportunity to be able to step up and meet these needs here. Now if you still think that

  • it's pressure and you think that oh well you know I'm just afraid that he's not gonna want

  • to do it at all or such say that he does have an a reaction where you can see that he's

  • not wanting to do these things even if you're communicating them clearly, then it might

  • be important to reassess whether you are with someone that you are compatible with; whether

  • the vision that you have of a relationship, the vision that the two of you have created,

  • whether you guys have gone different directions or whether you both want different thing.

  • And it's better to know the truth and get more connected to the truth because then you

  • can have a conversation around it rather than operating under all of these assumptions and

  • hoping that somehow it figures itself out on its own. So, that's it around neediness,

  • post any comments that you have below, post any questions. I want to plug something really

  • quick and there is a webinar that is happening, it's right underneath this link, it's called

  • the Three Keys to Being Relationship Ready. And it is for women who are wanting to become

  • relationship ready which means that you are at a place in your life where you want to

  • have everything together on your side of the fence so you can create the space for a quality

  • partner to walk into your life and for you to be able to navigate it both mentally, psychologically,

  • emotionally and truly have a high-quality partner that you can create a conscious relationship

  • with. So, go ahead and click the link below this, if you're interested. If that intrigues

  • you at all, subscribe to this channel, hit the bell and thank you for watching.
