In this episode, Bianca breaks down 'almost relationships' and why these heartbreaks are just as significant as those of traditional relationships. By being honest with ourselves, we learn to reflect on what we were seeking in the relationship and why we settled. Ultimately, it was just another experience to understand what we're looking for in our future relationships.
"When you settle for an almost, you settle for an almost in every single aspect of what a relationship could be...or should be. You settle for almost happy. You settle for almost valued. You settle for almost chosen. But you deserve more than that.”" - Bianca Sparacino

Reading all of these comments, and I'm so glad the words and the podcast episode is helping all of you to feel less alone in what you're going through. Just wanted to remind you that you're worthy of being chosen, and loved, and that you deserve the empathy and the effort you give to everyone around you. 💛

Trying to get over someone you never dated, feels worse because this person lives inside this bobble and on a pedestal. The fantasy of them. You never got to know all their bad sides, so they are perfect. It’s hard getting over something that is perfect. Of course they aren’t perfect. But you never got to see that. All you have is the story in your head. The potential. You’re mourning what could have happened. Not really them.

It’s much worse when you developed feelings for them even after seeing their bad side. The good, the bad, and the ugly. All through that you saw the good in them when no one else did. Just for them to toss you to the side and discard you like none of that mattered to them and neither did you. Utterly horrible feeling.

It is the worst feeling, I am going through that right now. He is my assistant, I like him before he became that. We spent a lot of time together every day. We get along so well. I really feel this deep connection between us. I confessed to him that I had feelings for him and he friend zoned me right away. I tried to be cool around him, but it hurt so bad. And I know that this is just a fantasy because I only see one side of him as mentioned in Emily’s post. I want to move on but it’s been very hard.

Had a girl I was dating for about 3 months. Our last 2 dates, She asked me to meet her parents, and then the next day she asked me to set up an outing with her, me, her best friend and MY best friends. Then for a week she went radio silence. I didn't freak out I just said "Okay I'm sure she's busy, and we saw a lot of each other last week." Another week was going by, and I asked her if she wanted to meet up again. She suggested just coffee. Of course she broke it off, and all she could say was that her feelings changed and we were better as friends. It was only 3 months. It was only 12 or 13 dates or so, and a handful of text messages. But that was enough time and enough investment for me to care. And right at this 3 month mark, I had just started to let my guard down and really hope that this "thing" might be going somewhere. And then, it wasn't. A month later she texted saying she had made plans with her gal pals (who were also mutual friends of ours) and asked me if I wanted to tag along. Basically, she ended things with me out of the blue with very little explanation, but claimed she still valued our friendship. But when it came to friendship, she was only treating me like an afterthought, after making plans with the friends she really enjoyed. After getting dumped, I said straight up, "I admit I'm sad, but I'm glad you were honest about how you were feeling." But after that, I gave up on her half-hearted attempts at niceness and the shallow friendship she basically seemed to be tossing me as a bone. Whenever she texted me something frivolous or asked me last minute to something, I politely said thanks but no thanks. It was hard, and I felt hurt and sad because I had truly truly liked this girl, and thought we had a great connection, but looking back, I'm glad I set up my own boundaries. I'm proud I didn't hang around her and hope for scraps of affection, romantic, friendship, or otherwise. Sometimes, it really is that the other person is just all mixed up, and you can't let their confusion drag you down. Better to just let go of them forever. Build on friendships and romantic connections that actually have had the time to mature, and have depth, and develop real worth. Always remember, 3 months might be long enough to fall for someone, but it's not long enough to know or love someone. So if you didn't really know each other, and if you didn't really love each other, then give yourself permission to move on from this muddled connection that keeps causing you stress, and find people that are better for you. :)

it really hurts. He was perfect. The first mature guy I've talked to after many, many immature, and toxic individuals. I wanted a relationship and he didn't. I still value the friendship, but at the moment, I feel like I can't see him otherwise it'll just remind me of what could've been. Personally, I have a hard time letting go and I know it happened for a reason.. I just can't seem to shake it off. Feeling really, really heartbroken.

This is literally making me cry, lately Ive been feeling and asking the question "is there something wrong with me?" It's like men will like me or think im such a great/sweet girl but always choose someone else, or will commit but then we'll break up but they won't let me go, and let me move on with my life. And it's so frustrating. I've began to feel like i don't need to date at all right now because i sometimes feel like i don't love myself to my core, like having someone else love me also will complete me, and at this point it's just tiring. But this podcast just spoke to my soul thank you!

It hurts so bad to realize that it was so different for him than it was for me. I loved wholeheartedly and yet it wasn’t enough. We connect on so many levels and such bonds don’t happen often, but to him it is not reason enough to pursue me because he feels like “it’s not meant to be”. I feel like I will never find the person who will reciprocate. Every story like that crashes my heart into billion little pieces

Sometimes we meet a person whose only purpose was to help us overcome some obstacle we had. Or perhaps they needed us to help them overcome an obstacle. People come into our lives for a reason, a season or hopefully a lifetime. The lifetime ones are usually family spouses or good friends. The reasons are to teach us something. The seasons are to help us through different situations. Yes they can be married and we are not, yes we can fall in love with them. Then without any reason they leave, once the Lesson or obstacle was was solved.

Bianca nails it in this vid at 9:15 - "when you accept an almost-relationship, you're telling someone they aren't responsible for how the relationship emotionally impacts you. There are no boundaries. And if there are no labels the partner can just pick up and choose whatever they feel like doing in a relationship, there are no consequences for any actions."

Thank you, as an Infp and an empath, this keeps happening and I was getting to the stage of feeling humiliation for having emotions. Just because you didn't actually date the person, the loss hurts just as much, if not more, because you begin to question your own judgment. Someone can be perfect for you and still not want to take it further. That really kills me. Thank you for justifying the feeling of abandonment, it needs to be felt to try to move on. But as you said, the what ifs are what keep us stuck. I met my soulmate, but he won't open up. I have to try to move on. But it really does sting. 🌺

I can relate to your pain Karina. I too am an empath, INFP and normally have a secure attachment style but this last relationship has floored me as it was my final attempt at a meaningful connection after so many false starts over my lifetime (I’m 62) I will resign myself to being alone now, as I have nothing left to give and won’t trust anyone again 🙁

This was something I convinced myself wasnt happening to me, but it was and it did. We had been in this situationship for 7 months on and off. 1 of which he ghosted me for an entire month before reappearing in my life as if nothing happened.. and I let him. I knew I wasn’t really what he wanted but I loved the feeling he made me feel. The idea of us being in a relationship when he never even wanted that at all. I created this version of him in my own head that never even existed. That hurts but it’s the honest truth. I let him hurt me time and time again thinking we would be in a relationship even though this was breaking me emotionally, physically, and mentally. I’m finally ready though, to let him go. He let go of me a long time ago I just kept hanging on because of the bond and the attachment. I don’t think I want a relationship at this point in my life anymore. That hurt and pain is not worth feeling again. I have goals and aspirations that i’m pursuing and I don’t want to feel that strongly about a single person ever again.

Exactly the same thing with me. She appeared at a time I was going through a painful divorce, and I thought the world of her for standing by. Kept calling daily, she mirrored me so much it was like I was talking to my own self. Same ghosting, same acceptance, then offered to be my friend, I said no, I won't do friends, only soulmates, she continued and then suddenly threw in the towel 7 months later. I think she was a scam artist, expert at her job, and must be doing the same with someone else now. I feel sick at how I kept trying to be with her, though I felt often I should ask her to go. As the podcast says, it was a potential, not the real thing, and I kept deluding myself. Hope you never have such a sick person in your life again, but there are many such. I don't believe the solution is to change ourselves, but we are wiser after our experiences and less likely to fall for this again.

I’ve honestly been thinking about this comment alot lately it’s like the person you WANT isn’t necessarily the person you NEED and maybe I need to acknowledge the fact that I don’t really know what I need and what’s the best for me. Instead of going around in circles pining for someone who’s not going to love you back. Till I figure that out I’m just going to work on myself and be a better person

Yes! ---- who we need and who we want can be entirely different things. A good book to read is "The Erotic Mind". Its also good to explore your attachment style. If Im mutually, sexually attracted to someone I find that I become an anxious attacher -- a full-on 5 stage clinger 🤣--- But if Im not really sexually attracted to a person but more intellectually stimulated I can and have stayed in loving companionships for over 15 + years. So now Im trying turn inward and examine exactly what you mentioned---what is it that I really WANT and what is it that I really NEED?? The question is can I ever reconcile the two? Or do we simply follow our childhood wounding patterns? Another really beneficial thing I'm doing is watching videos on the benefits of staying single --- listening to speakers on this side of the question is really enlightening. Its helping me move past pathological loneliness and into a space of ultimate self - love ❤️🦋💥 It's a Short life and people usually show you who they are early on if you listen with your intuition. Emotional and romantic thinking can get you into trouble these days. There are so many amazing things in life to see and do! We should partner first with ourselves in joy. Like the speaker says in this video - If they say they cant commit walk away... never settle.. people usually don't change. Lesson from and old Kenny Rodgers song "The Gambler" You got to... Know when to hold em Know when to fold em Know when to walk away Know when to run Good Luck on your Life Journey--- Protect your yourself, fall in love with you and keep an open heart 🙏🏻

my situation: I met this guy on tinder. I truly believe it was a sign that we met because we were at the same edm concert the night we matched. I didn’t see that he texted me till the next morning though. at the concert it was a really small venue too, so we were like 100 feet away from each other the whole night. (keep in mind i’ve never had something so this was my first real experience) after a few weeks of talking we met up. after that we met up about 4 more times. (he was about 50 minutes away) I would make the drive for him. even when I didn’t have my car, I paid for a lyft just to see him (he did once too). in the beginning of talking he kept telling me he wasn’t looking for a relationship and he kept reminding me of his baggage. I ended up staying because at the time I truly liked him and saw past that. even though he didn’t want a relationship, we acted like we were in one. he made me food whenever I stayed over. if he didn’t make food, he always ordered and paid. he made me breakfast once and told me he’s never made breakfast for anyone, not even his ex, and I felt special. I truly liked him because he was the first person who actually seemed interested in me. someone who started the conversations and gave compliments. I met all his friends and even his sister. someone who gave their 100%. after a month or so he started to distance himself from me. I even caught onto it because I confronted him about it and he admitted to it. that night I confronted him, we almost ended it but he told me he liked me too much to end things so we decided to keep trying and let whatever happen, happen. around a week or two later I drove up to attend his roommates birthday party and that weekend is when things ended. what made me sad is that, that weekend we were so good. then the last night I was there, some new people came over to hangout and he ended up talking to one of them and they gave him an “eye opening” moment. the eye opening moment was that he felt like he was using me to fill an empty void and he didn’t realize he was. he wanted to focus on himself. now trust me, I’m happy he’s choosing himself for once and wanting better for himself but I hate how it took that long for him to realize it. I hate how we told each other everything. things we have never told anyone. I do feel like he took advantage of the fact that I have never had something real before. I don’t regret anything but I wish I would have waited for “that person” to do things with. I hate that my first experience ended so badly. honestly I didn’t care for a relationship label, but I hated the label “friends” whenever I would ask him. I hated it because friends didn’t do what we did. friends didn’t kiss and cuddle. friends didn’t call every night and say they miss each other. I truly did see so much potential in us. we were different but we had similarities. our differences balanced us so well. we never argued and when we did disagree, we wouldn’t make a big deal out of it. I was planning on telling my family about him very soon if things had never ended. I feel like sometimes I don’t have the right to be sad or hurt because we never dated. I do know my feelings are valid but I feel like people expect me to move on fast. I cant though. I can’t because it was my first everything. I hate that I am holding on the possibility that he will come to the realization that he made a mistake and wants to try again. it hurts holding onto that because I do feel like he has moved on already. I know I am only hurting myself more but it’s hard to let go of something you saw so much potential in. I know for a fact that my family would’ve loved him. they would’ve gotten along so well and would have welcomed him with open arms. I know people say to not think about what it could’ve been but I do think about it. I think about it, because he wasn’t a bad person. he was genuinely a great and caring person. so of course I saw a future. I refuse to believe our story was supposed to end so soon and end like it ended. we agreed to start over as just friends but it hurts. i’m scared to see the day that he brings someone else over. although we did make a pinkie promise that he won’t talk to anyone new it still hurts because I feel like he will break that promise. now don’t think I am controlling. we made a promise because the reason he ended things was to focus on himself. I even told him that if he were to talk to someone new I would feel disrespected because why couldn’t you just continue things with me then? I hate that I question myself if I didn’t anything wrong. If I was enough. If I am deserving of love or what my worth is. It’s hard moving on and letting go especially when you saw so much. I don’t want to meet anyone new. I just want him. I hate going through the same process that I went through with him. I wish I was enough for him to stay. I hate that I fell so deep and can’t get out. I hate that when he ended things, a part of me has been missing. I have been in a slump ever since things ended. people keep telling me to not be friends because I will just hurt myself even more but I don’t want to let go. I don’t want him out of my life but I also feel like him out of my life will help. we were talking about being friends with benefits and honestly a part of me was leaning towards saying yes but only because it would mean that we would still have that physical and intimate connection, which sounds sad. I know it’s bad and that I am deserving and am more than that. but I can’t let go. some days I feel okay but then the waves of sadness come and go. I just feel so lonely now.

You nailed it. Going through this right now only knew her for a month. We talked as friends. I never had any intentions with her. But we met in person and things escalated quickly. I knew she was emotionally unavailable but I thought I could change her mind. I feel so hard it was unbelievable. Just when things felt so right she got scared and ran. The hardest thing is accepting the fact that I never got a fair shot and never will.

But we stayed friends... and still we are close friends I thought I could do that, I would move on with time given and keep one of my best friends But I can't stop being in love with him..

I know how you feel. I tried with me best friend for 3 years. Did everything for her. And she keeps passing me up. No matter how much fun we have and how easy it is with us. It took that long of chasing her for me to realize it’s just never gonna be me. And I had to walk away just recently. And I’m the one hurting and I’m the one slowly dying and she’s fine. When love is one sided you have to find a way out and find yourself value cause much as they say they do or portray they do. They truly don’t cause they don’t feel the same, and they may never feel that way.

I can't stop thinking about her 24/7 ,I cuddle my pillows at night as if it's her, I don't think she feels the same way although we shared a kiss before she left. I can't tell her how I feel because, it's just too early and I've never been vulnerable around girls. Falling in love is an extreme sport you are always prone to being hurt.

It’s so sad. It reminds me of those lyrics, ‘I didn’t fall in alone.’ I finally admitted my feelings to him since his behavior suddenly changed on me with no explanation. I was moving away and just wanted to put everything out there so I’d have no regrets. He said he didn’t feel the same. Now looking back I feel like I was kind of used- like a therapist? From those moments when he actually was vulnerable with me and I thought we were getting closer. None of it makes any real sense. It feels like emotional hijacking.

YES! Exactly this... thank you. Dated a guy and finally felt the way I wanted to feel again. He was a good guy and told me he thought I was special and wanted to treat me as much. Turns out he's not over his ex and I made an entire relationship in my head when he just was not available. He was a proper gentleman in how he told me as well, so I can't really hate him for it and somehow that hurts worse. Because if he was an asshole he'd be easier to get over, but he is genuinely out there trying to find someone (though perhaps he should focus on himself for a while). And anyways, that's a lot of details but... I feel so silly for letting myself feel so connected when in the end it was one-sided. crushing. So thank you for putting this video out there. All the comments below also make me feel less alone.

I literally blamed myself for being in an almost relationship. I told myself I broke my own heart. I'm the one who decided to leave cause I wanted more but I know that he doesn't want anything than just what we had. No commitment. Just feelings, and skinship. I was happy I ended things but I started missing him and when I texted him he turned cold and basically told my friends he doesn't want me around anymore. It broke my heart. I know that I deserved better. I know that we weren't compatible. I even knew that I only like the ideal relationship of us. But that hope of what we COULD of had was something I still held onto. This almost relationship hurt more than my 3 years relationship. I really appreciated this cause it resonated with me a lot and reassured me that I'll be fine. Still need time to heal.

Take all the time you need to heal. This kind of healing is a journey, but you're going to be okay. 💛

I knew from the start that it was going to hurt, after all our first phone call had me playing therapist and feeling like I had stayed up for two weeks straight after it ended. I even asked myself if I wanted to keep talking to her and my heart said “yes she needs your help” and even though something inside me was waving every red flag ever created, I still kept trying, only to be left feeling chewed up and spit out in the end. No words can describe how thankful I am for what this video helped me realize!!

I stuck by my best friends side thru it all. Fell in love with my best friend. It’s been three years and it took that long for me to realize I may never be the one she chooses. No matter how obvious that we would be best for each other. To lose someone you love hurts. But to lose your best friend also in one quick swoop. It hurts. To walk away after so long and it feels like she’s fine. And I’m slowing dying. You guys ever ask how much pain can a heart can take. How much pain can one take before you finally become so hurt and broken. That you finally give up on something you wish could be. Give up on someone that you believe in. Sigh..... I’m gonna miss her so much.

I so relate to what you’re saying here, I hope you took the step for yourself and chose yourself and let this relationship end. Because I’ve been there my friend. I was so occupied, so drained and consumed by a relationship where I was so confused, I was give so much in it and I was receiving nothing. We used to talk day and night, we were a couple but he refused to give us a label because he doesn’t want to commit, at first I was okay with that but then as days went by I knew I want more and I deserve better and more, I was so scared and so many fears were stopping from walking away from such a relationship, but in the end I did it, it’s hurt but I’m getting better!!! Idk if you still need help I’m here to help you. But do this for yourself, choose yourself, the universe will choose you, because you deserve better 💛

I fell in love with my "almost" boyfriend when I was 14. I am currently 20 years old. He made me feel special in my life. He was the first person who I've ever had a special connection with besides someone from my family. We had plans to meet in person once we got older, not having an exact plan and wanting to be with each other. This video made me want to take the first step in moving on from the relationship. I'm going to work on myself and work on bettering myself for me. Not to make other people happy or try to please someone else, but doing something on my own. This video has inspired me to move forward and I can't express how grateful I am for having something that very accurately depicts how I feel in my heart... From the bottom of my heart thank you for making such a wonderful video.

I don't know how to quite put my finger on it. Had a friendship where at times each of us may have wanted something more but circumstances and actions got in our own way, but we would always try to reconnect over time and felt happy whenever we did. Eventually had other relationships where the person loved me more directly and more openly but on the other hand in some ways was less compatible, but despite that it was harder to say no to someone who genuinely liked me and showed it. But guess who I think about now when I hear a romantic song on the radio 10+ years later?

I said no...but I felt a lot for him and while he took the no he also took what he could from me when I let him. It's been a year now, I dont even think I love him in a romantic relationship way but yesterday I realized how toxic it came to be for both of us, how much I expected from him and how much I gave him...it hurts like hell now. I feel stupid and I hate both myself and him. But thanks to your kind and beautiful words I can see now that it's ok to cry, to mourn and to learn and be better. So thank you so much

I wrote in my journal last night that I am thankful for the podcasts that we come across when we're at our lowest because they speak our soul. They make us nod while we're into the first few minutes, agreeing that maybe, Bianca is right. We deserve nothing less for ourselves. I just hope that there will be more episodes of this. The last upload was in 2021. Please make more content. 🥺 Now more than ever, for people like us who caught feelings too fast with someone we never dated, we need someone like Bianca to talk to us bluntly, amd then gently remind us that this, too, shall pass.
