The creator delivers a mock 'TED Talk' presentation explaining the concept of the 'mental breakup' in relationships.

Women never go shoe shopping barefooted
No today we have, you lose your girl long before the breakup. A lot of guys get blindsided with the breakup because they're not able to identify the signs that a breakup is coming. First, you have the mental breakup. This is how women operate. They check out of the relationship long before the breakup actually happens. They start becoming less interested. They start caring less. They start doing some activities that are questionable more often. The nights out start to increase all of these things. So you need to be able to identify and look at the signs. Cause if you're not able to identify and look at the signs, you're not able to have the conversations that could prevent the future breakup from even happening. Once you see these signs, you need to have the difficult conversations immediately. If you're noticing that you're a girl starting to care less, she's not interested, she's not present in your conversations, She's on her phone a lot around you. The connection isn't where it used to be. If you don't nip that in the better immediately, that's gonna start to compound. If you keep sweeping that under the rug, and that's where she emotionally and mentally checks out of your relationship. And what ends up happening is women never go shoe shopping barefoot. They never go shoe shopping barefooted, and this is not about shopping for shoes. People always say a woman's never single, woman's always got a backup, man. That's because she checked out of your relationship four months ago. So she's already been weighing new options so that when she decides to finally break up with your dumbass, because you ain't know what's going on, she's already got somebody else that she can move on to so that she's not lonely. You need to be able to identify the signs and you need to nip those signs in the bad immediately. Because even if those signs aren't fixable, you at least save yourself your dignity, and you save yourself getting blindsided four months from now when the breakup's eventually gonna happen. So instead of prolong prolonging the inevitable, you can nip it in the bud now. Thanks for coming to my TED Rank today, and I'll see you at the same time again tomorrow.
