Creando lección...
1
hello my dears so i had the interesting topic brought up to me about the difference between
2
slow love versus fast love let's look up the definition of slow love
3
according to ai overview slow love is a romantic orientation
4
that involves taking a gradual approach to relationships rather than rushing
5
into commitment a overview's definition of fast love is a term
6
that describes a culture of superficial expressions of affection
7
and fleeting emotional connections it can also refer to the idea of falling in love quickly which is sometimes called hemophilia.
8
I didn't know that.
9
Known as emotional promiscuity.
10
This is a term for people who tend to fall in love quickly and often.
11
People with hemophilia may feel an all -encompassing passion for romantic interest in a short amount of time.
12
Huh.
13
I'm gonna start off with saying
14
that there's nothing wrong with wanting to experience a fast love there's nothing wrong with wanting to be understood
15
but there are the side effects of being understood too quickly it shows a level of curiosity
16
that wow this person really wants to get to know me on such a deep level and curiosity is important.
17
There is a difference between cramming for the exam versus fully understanding the subject.
18
I'm going to use an example.
19
There is a person that can get to know you within weeks.
20
They ask all of the right questions.
21
They start to really understand who you are, but who they are studying is the person that you are at
22
that exact moment versus the person
23
that has gotten to know you over a span of years
24
and this person has witnessed seeing you change instead of the
25
first example of where they asked all the right questions and they found out who exactly you are
26
it's
27
so much easier for them to kind of put you in
28
this box of what they studied you to be versus is
29
the second example of where they witness the box keep growing the first example
30
that person may feel like whoa you're changing it up a little too much what happened to the person
31
that i used to know you to be
32
but the second example is able to understand you to such a fundamental level of throughout all the changes
33
that i have witnessed you go through these are the points
34
that have stayed the same
35
and i know this is you to your core to be
36
honest rushing love is actually very simple all you have to
37
do is just lean into the crush of this person
38
or lean into the few things that you do like about them
39
and just exploit it and keep using that as a carrying vessel for the rest of the relationship.
40
It's very easy to do.
41
The common denominator between slow love and fast love is that there is the chemistry.
42
I'm not going to take away from the fast love that there isn't a connection there.
43
There definitely is.
44
It's just what you do with the connection is extremely important.
45
I'd say with maturing, you start to understand how to stop being as indulgent with
46
love the same way how you would with sugar we love
47
sugar it's delicious it's a nice treat love is like a nice sweet treat
48
but we want to be able to learn how to pace ourselves
49
because when you take
50
so much of it all at once for an extended amount
51
of time you're gonna feel sick we want to avoid feeling sick from our loves
52
so with slow love we are practicing patience.
53
Continue on your life as you would because you still want to put time
54
and effort into the goals that you have outside of the relationship.
55
I'd say that's what I notice a lot with the fast loves that I've experienced as well as observed.
56
A fast love usually puts the rest of our life on hold, while the slow loves, they take such small chunks of time out of our days
57
and we can still eat the rest of what's on our
58
plate like they are the sweet treat at the end of the day but we still
59
fulfilled the main course which were our responsibilities and our ambitions
60
and i'd say that's a well -balanced meal we would love
61
to have well -balanced meals as our well -balanced loves
62
but with the fast loves it gave us no room left in our bodies to have that love for other things
63
that actually correlates to one of the main reasons as to why i'm scared to fall in love again
64
love is consuming it's not to say
65
that i don't want to give this time and energy the problem is
66
that i do from the first time
67
that i fell in love i didn't know any part of
68
how to keep a well -balanced meal i only knew how to keep indulging in what felt great
69
and a couple heartbreaks later
70
there's someone here
71
i was just young and that was to keep leading into this love
72
and forget everything else but to live a little too presently we love living presently
73
but you know when you're eating a cake it's like oh this feels great
74
but you're not thinking about how it's gonna make you feel bad later you're just completely indulging into the present
75
and just wanting more of this until your satisfaction isn't actually
76
satisfying it's sickening with a slow love sure it's not going to be it's not going to be overwhelmingly magical
77
but i'd say it's the small bits of magic
78
that continues to prove to me it is sustainable
79
and it will be there through my thick and thin
80
because it already has versus the fast loves it's like who are you and a lot of the answers to this problem.
81
I wouldn't even call it a problem.
82
It's just this rite of passage in life is learning how to be more patient.
83
We all have different styles of being patient too.
84
It's truly just further understanding yourself and what your well -balanced meal looks like.
85
At least definitely with the times that I've experienced fast love, I was running away from something.
86
Whether I knew it or not.
87
I was running away from something.
88
One of my fast loves, I was running away from what my purpose was in life.
89
I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up
90
and the fact that I had already been at the age of grown up
91
and I wasn't in the career that I wanted to be in yet, it was agonizing to admit I was lost.
92
So then I fell into a really fast love.
93
There goes the well -balanced meal.
94
I avoided the vegetables and I just went straight for the sugar.
95
I didn't want to confront that I hadn't had eaten any vegetables.
96
So yes, the slow loves that I have been experiencing as of late,
97
I am just truly ever so in love with the fact that you exist.
98
I didn't know
99
that slow love existed until i found my best friends i think my abandonment issues really really subsided
100
when i found love within these people they have been there through the thick and thin
101
i believe that my soul is tied to them
102
and it truly took time in order for
103
that tie to be created with a knot so strong over time and weather
104
and erosion the knot will still be there versus with the fast loves a knot is still tied
105
but it can become so undone
106
so quickly with extreme ease it is upsetting it's very upsetting
107
that oh my gosh i thought
108
that i tied such a beautiful bow with this person
109
and you probably did but the bow is made of silk
110
and although it had the most beautiful presentation is slipped right from underneath itself versus the shipping rope
111
that I have with my slow loves.
112
I have no fear and only trust for the slow loves that I have accumulated.
113
In terms of how to get slow love, I would say it is paying attention to the other aspects of your life
114
and that is how you can start practicing a slower love you want to divide
115
and experience life in moderation especially the good
116
and the bad parts it's the balance it's it's the well balanced meal i have to go now
117
but i hope you enjoyed this video and i love you
118
so much my romantics i wish you to find all the pairs of your socks
119
and all the quarters in your pockets thank you so much romantics i have to go now bye guys
120
and a couple heartbreaks later i started to understand and a lot of the answers to please let me know guys

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
