1
hi i might hurt your feelings right now and uh
2
if i do good um
3
because i don't want you to waste any more time in
4
your life having crushes is a waste of your time having crushes on people is a waste of your time
5
because i was having a conversation with my friend the other day
6
and we were talking about boys as girls do and
7
and we got to a specific part of the conversation where
8
she was talking about oh my god there's this guy at my college
9
and i think he's really cute
10
and you know i'd really want to go on a date with him
11
but like i don't know if he's interested
12
and i told her i was like why don't you just
13
walk up to him the next time you see him
14
and give him your number she's like no i could never do
15
that that's so bold like girls aren't supposed to give their numbers out like
16
that like i have to wait for him to come to me
17
and i was like why like fucking why it's a waste of your time to give someone
18
so much attention and energy when you don't know whether it's a rejection or an acceptance.
19
Like you don't know if they're feeling the same kind of connection on the other side.
20
And it's better to figure out whether it's actually a connection or a rejection as soon as possible because,
21
and this is the only piece of advice that my ninth grade English teacher gave me that I actually listened to.
22
I did not like my ninth grade English teacher
23
because he was the only person on my entire report card
24
that gave me a B and I had to take AP classes,
25
AP biology to get my GPA up to a 4.0 so that I could graduate with a 4.0.
26
So thanks to him, I had to take AP biology.
27
That's not the, that's not the point.
28
He told us, he said,
29
if a romantic partner tells you no,
30
if someone rejects you, if someone breaks up with you, thank them.
31
And we were like, the fuck you talking about?
32
Can we get back to the Odyssey?
33
And he said, no, no,
34
no, no, no. Listen to me right now.
35
Listen to me.
36
When someone rejects you, they break up with you, thank them.
37
Because they are not wasting your time stringing you along.
38
They are giving you a clear and concise answer that they do not want you.
39
And hey, guess what?
40
It's one in like eight billion that's going to be your match.
41
Why do you think that the first person you get into a relationship with is going to be the one, right?
42
You're going to experience rejection and heartbreak and breakups.
43
So when someone says no,
44
it means they're not wasting your time and you're one step closer to the love of your life.
45
And let me just say that advice applies to crushes as well.
46
Because what do you mean you're going to sit and build up this idea of this person in your head,
47
think about them all the time,
48
have them take up all of this brain space have them take up all this energy
49
because whether you believe it or not when you think your brain burns calories
50
and no this isn't anything to do with like weight loss
51
or anything let me look this up your baseline caloric need is 20 of your
52
and of your body's total energy
53
which is roughly 300 to 400 calories per day for the
54
average person it's 20 of your body's total energy is used within your brain.
55
So think about how much fucking energy you're wasting thinking about a dumbass boy that doesn't even know you exist.
56
Crushes are stupid.
57
They are.
58
And I've fallen victim to them again and again and again and again.
59
Crushes are stupid and we've really overcomplicated this idea of connection.
60
And truly, to overcome crushes,
61
you have to overcome your fear of rejection.
62
You have to be okay with people saying no to you.
63
You have to let go of your people pleasing and your fear of rejection.
64
And that's how it's going to be easier for you to find the love of your life.
65
Because think of it this way.
66
If you feel a connection with a person,
67
whether it's a friend, a random person you meet on the street,
68
someone you meet on a dating app,
69
which by the way, dating apps are crap.
70
Don't download them.
71
Just find someone naturally.
72
My God, go to places and things that you like.
73
Go to clubs, go to classes.
74
Find people with similar interests to you and you'll find someone.
75
Best believe me, there's a billion people on this planet it,
76
but you don't have to go on Tinder and find some boy who needs mushrooms to feel empathy.
77
You know, you don't need that, girl.
78
Come on.
79
But that's not what I'm trying to say is the second you feel a connection with a person,
80
give them your number.
81
Walk up to them.
82
Start a conversation.
83
Say, hey, I find you attractive.
84
Hey, I find you cute.
85
Do you find me cute?
86
Do you find me attractive?
87
And if they say yes, awesome.
88
Connection formed.
89
Feel it through till the end,
90
and you'll either experience heartbreak on the end of it,
91
which will be okay, or you'll experience the love of your life.
92
And the reason that we're so scared of just having that conversation,
93
that initial conversation with a crush of just like,
94
hey, this is how I'm feeling.
95
I'm going to lay myself out here and just,
96
how are you feeling about me as a person?
97
Like, just tell me your feelings is two reasons.
98
One, we fear rejection because we think that them rejecting us is them saying that we're a bad person.
99
Rejection is not them saying that you're a bad person,
100
that you're an undateable person,
101
that you're the worst, ugliest,
102
most disgusting thing in the world.
103
No, it just means that they don't feel that way towards you.
104
You know, some people don't like olives.
105
Some people like pickles.
106
Maybe you're a pickle and the boy that you're asking out likes olives.
107
Cool.
108
Do you want to date someone that likes olives when you're pickle?
109
This is a horrible analogy.
110
Stay with me here, folks.
111
Or do you want to be with someone who loves pickles for who they are?
112
You need to find the person that wants you for you.
113
And why would you be with someone who doesn't want you?
114
And our brain just like jumps to these extremes of if this person rejects me,
115
oh God, who am I going to find?
116
What's going to happen?
117
Like what's going to happen next?
118
Because we fear abandonment so deeply that our brain just like vacillates to the extremes
119
and also when you let feelings linger for a crush before having
120
that conversation of hey do you like me do you not like me you'll build them up in your head
121
so large
122
that they become like this godlike entity this like incredible person
123
you put them on the pedestal oh my god i love them
124
so much they're my everything and it's like and it's like bitch you don't even know them
125
you know the version of them that you've built up in your head
126
but you don't know who they actually are you're feeling an
127
initial attraction you're feeling a connection it's best to ask just
128
point blank period like hey i'm feeling something are you feeling
129
it too you're having a crush for a reason having a crush is a feeling the same way
130
that danger is a feeling
131
and in my experience every single time i've seen a person
132
have a crush on a person they have learned a massive lesson from
133
that person whether that lesson was rejection whether
134
that lesson was love the same way
135
that you're attracted towards a person is the same way
136
that you have like cravings for food
137
and there was a study cray cray there was oh god i'm gonna violently misquote this
138
or the foods we crave our body knows
139
that we can get certain nutrients from these foods
140
or certain things from these foods so it's craving them specifically
141
because it wants that thing i think sometimes we crave specific people
142
because our soul knows the lesson we're about to go through
143
when we experience this person which is why we have a crush on them
144
which is why we feel attraction which is why we're drawn towards them
145
and we need to tell them as soon as possible so
146
that we can start the ball rolling on whatever lesson we're meant to feel from this person.
147
And let me just tell you,
148
every crush I've ever had on a boy,
149
all of them have just taught me the ways in which I do not want to be loved.
150
And I left there being like,
151
okay, I don't like this.
152
I didn't like this.
153
I liked this.
154
I didn't like this.
155
That was my biggest takeaway from the last couple of guys was just,
156
I don't like to be treated this way.
157
And like I said, I've never had like a long-term boyfriend or anything like that.
158
It's because these boys in the past either just absolutely disappeared and ghosted me,
159
or I was just completely rejected, which is awesome.
160
And it taught me a lot.
161
And it taught me to move on.
162
I've watched so many people have so many crushes on people.
163
And the second I'm like,
164
why don't you just go fucking tell them?
165
And don't get me wrong.
166
I understand that feeling of just like,
167
oh my god, what if they know and ah, you know, that feeling.
168
But just fucking do it just fucking say it
169
because you're wasting your time that you could be spending in love with either them
170
or with someone else you need to hear that yes or
171
that no so you can move on or so you can start
172
that connection but you need to open the door you need to open the door
173
and tell them how you feel and have that courage
174
and also if you don't have the courage to say how you feel to
175
that person how the hell are you going to have the
176
courage to be in a relationship with them that's my take on it because relationships are hard work.
177
I know I've never been in a relationship,
178
but I know that they're hard work.
179
I know that there is a fuck ton of communication
180
and compromise and decisions that have to go on within it that if you don't even have the courage to say,
181
hey, I have a crush on you,
182
why the fuck do you want to be in a relationship with that person?
183
I'm just saying the people you love should also give you courage.
184
And if you don't feel courageous in the face of telling them how you feel,
185
then maybe they're not the one.
186
Maybe they're just someone that you find pretty
187
but you don't want a relationship with
188
but either way it's always better to just open
189
that door as soon as possible in my opinion i don't care
190
if you're i don't care who you are just fucking say it
191
because for all you know you're robbing yourself of the love of your life just
192
because you're sitting there ruminating and being like oh my god will they say yes
193
or will they reject me just fucking say it just fucking do it what's the worst
194
that could happen they say no oh move on then anyway
195
that's my two cents having crushes are a waste of time
196
you have better things to do girl boss i love you

推薦影片

為什麼通過這個影片練習口語?

在學習英語的過程中,培養口語能力至關重要,而通過觀看影片來練習口語是一個非常有效的方式。這個影片討論了關於暗戀的主題,激發觀眾對於個人情感的思考。在觀看和模仿影片中的對話時,您不僅能提高您的語言表達能力,還能更好地理解人際關係的微妙之處。通過這樣的情境練習,您能夠逐步克服與緊張和不安有關的問題,增強您的自信心,幫助您在實際交流中變得更加流利。使用這個影片作為看YouTube學英語的一部分,您將發現快速提升口語能力的新途徑。

語法與表達在語境中的運用

在這個影片中,有幾種重要的語法結構和表達方式值得注意:

  • 直接引語與間接引語:影片中提到的對話展示瞭如何用直言不諱的方式表達個人感受,如“我認為他真的很可愛”。這種直接表達使得交流更加真實和有趣。
  • 條件句:例如,“如果你跟他表白,他可能會接受你。”這種條件句能有效地表達假設和可能性,有助於學習者在複雜的對話中建立邏輯關係。
  • 感嘆句:使用如“我發誓,我從未親自做過這樣的事!”表達強烈的情感。這類表達讓語言具有張力,便於學習者學習如何在不同情境中調整語氣。

常見發音陷阱

在觀看影片時,某些單詞或短語的發音可能會特別具有挑戰性:

  • “crush”:該詞在非母語者中常常被誤讀,注意其發音應為 /krʌʃ/。
  • “waste”:確保將 /eɪ/ 清晰地發出,而不是誤讀為 /ɛ/。
  • “bold”:應該注意音節的重音,使其聽起來更加自然。

在實踐如shadow speak或shadowspeaks等發音時,多加註意這些細節,能夠有效提升您的口語流利度和發音準確性。通過反覆模仿和練習,您會發現,克服這些發音障礙並不困難。

影片中的語法

說話人最常用的結構,並附上影片中的原話:

結構影片中的用法
現在完成時 have/has + 過去分詞 — 過去發生但與現在仍有關聯的事I've fallen · we've really overcomplicated · you've built
定語從句 who / which + 從句 — 補充說明人或事物someone who loves · someone who doesn · person which is
被動語態 be + 過去分詞 — 強調發生了什麼,而不是誰做的be loved · be treated

什麼是跟讀法?

跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
