Hello Aleš,

I joined the 30-day relationship program because I’ve been single for some time. I grew up in a family where alcohol was present and where I was the one fixing my parents’ problems. I was the parent in the family, not the child, as it should have been. All of this deeply affected my relationships with men. Either they cheated on me, used me, were emotionally unavailable, or I never knew where I stood with them, always feeling uncertain and unable to rely on them.

During the program, I ended a relationship that had lasted for years without any progress—just more exploitation, etc. I had been spinning in circles for quite a while and knew it was going nowhere, yet I couldn’t manage to end it. First, I had to set boundaries and no longer allow my parents to burden me with their issues (I already addressed part of this before the program—my father, and the other part during the program—my mother). I had to stand on my own feet. During the program, I finally managed to end that relationship that was leading nowhere. For the first time, I feel like I’m living in the present and have left the past behind.

In the past, I was very nervous in stressful situations (my mother still is), and I constantly wondered when the right partner would come along, someone with whom I could have a healthy, emotionally mature relationship. Through the program, I managed to eliminate that nervousness, as I now feel calm inside and trust that the right partner will come into my life. I no longer ask when, where, how, or who it will be. I find it easier to let go and trust. Even at work, when situations are extremely stressful, I remain calm and believe that problems can be solved. I believe I can solve them and trust in that.

Now I’m working on trusting myself more and trusting my feelings. I can now express my feelings to others in person more easily (I used to struggle greatly with this—expressing myself, especially face to face). Now I see that I genuinely want that, that I want to express myself, share my feelings, and have face-to-face conversations.

I’m happy and proud of myself for deciding to join this program because it gave me a lot of new knowledge and helped me become aware of and resolve patterns that I hadn’t been able to recognize or deal with before.

Grateful for your program and your explanations.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Mateja
