You gotta make him feel stupid for trying you—and the way you do that isn’t revenge, yelling, or explaining. It’s walking away for good.

In this video, we talk about why continuing to engage with a man who already showed you who he is only feeds his ego—and leaves you feeling drained, embarrassed, and stuck. If you’ve ever found yourself missing him, wanting to text him, or struggling not to fold even though you know it’s over, this conversation is for you.

I break down:

• Why men expect you to come back

• How continuing to engage gives him power over you

• The psychology behind silence and emotional discipline

• Why walking away hurts his ego more than chasing ever will

• How to stop reaching out, even when it hurts

• What actually happens when you leave him alone and level up

This isn’t about playing games.

It’s about self-respect.

It’s about discipline over desire.

And it’s about choosing yourself—even when it’s uncomfortable.

If you’re ready to stop stroking his ego, stop betraying yourself, and finally move on with your life, this video will help you shift your mindset and take your power back.

💬 Let me know in the comments—what was the hardest part about leaving him alone?
