Love Life with Matthew Hussey

I’ve heard this story a thousand times before . . .   You go on a date with someone and hit it off. Things seem to be going well, and pretty soon, you're seeing each other all the time. You text them daily, make plans for the future, and every time their name pops up on your phone, you feel a surge of happiness and excitement.   That very same excitement keeps hitting new peaks until, suddenly, you feel a shift. They grow more and more distant, and at first you're not sure whether you're imagining it or whether they really are pulling away. You double down on effort and communication, but it only seems to drive them further away until eventually they call it a day and stops messaging altogether.   If this has ever happened to you, then you know it can drive you crazy working out how to act when someone is clearly pulling away from you.   But as it turns out, there is a right way and a wrong way to proceed when this happens, and it can determine whether someone stays or goes.   In today’s episode, I’ll share with you the #1 reason why people pull away and a high-value way to respond to it. ►► Never Face Your Love Life Alone Again Try Matthew AI for Free at. . . → http://www.AskMH.com ▼ Get My Latest Dating Tips and Connect With Me… ▼ Facebook → @coachmatthewhussey Instagram → @thematthewhussey Twitter → @matthewhussey

It’s strange how we often feel more comfortable with the idea of going on a date with a stranger than talking on the phone. 

But isn’t it a good idea? Shouldn’t we test how they are on the phone before we meet in person? In this clip, we answer a question from someone who feels that men get scared off when she suggests a phone call, and give some practical tips for how to build more comfort before the first date.

In today’s new episode, I’ll share with you exactly how to do that through 13 highly practical tips to get him to take you more seriously. Some of these are subtle, but each one of these points can have an outsized impact on how your relationship moves forward.

I really wanted to make this episode because the tone you set in the beginning will serve you throughout your entire relationship, and the influence you can have on being taken seriously by someone is huge. It can determine whether your relationship will be a casual one that’s on their terms, or a committed, loving one where you’re building something together.

And in addition to being practical, this episode breaks down the psychology behind each of these tips and provides you with examples (and in many cases, specific texts) you can customize and make your own.

When you've been betrayed or hurt by someone, you can often ask yourself, "How did I miss the red flags?". And in this reaction you may end up blaming yourself. Especially if you feel like there's a recurring pattern in the people you've chosen to date so far. So what is the role of our own responsibility when we date people who hurt us? And how do we practice self-forgiveness and compassion for ourselves so we don't get caught in a trap of endlessly beating ourselves up for someone else's bad behavior?

I’ve heard this story so many times before . . .

You go on a date with a guy and instantly, you feel a strong connection. What was supposed to just be drinks turns into dinner, which turns into a 12-hour affair. When you do eventually part ways, you look down at your phone and find a message sitting in your inbox saying, “Can I see you tomorrow?”

You feel amazing.

Over the next few weeks, it’s a whirlwind. He wants to spend every waking minute together, he’s outspoken about his feelings for you, and upon waking, you always have a “Good morning, gorgeous!” text waiting for you.

He may even go so far as to introduce you to his friends and family . . . or say those three little words that so many others have struggled to say to you in the past . . .

It’s intense and fast, but it feels so good that you just let the romance sweep you off your feet.

Overnight, your life has turned into one of those romantic movie montages that show the highlight reel of a perfect relationship, except instead of the montage spanning a year or two, it’s hitting those milestones after a few weeks.

And then, of course, it happens . . . something feels wrong, the communication slows down, he starts to pull away, and before you know it, he vanishes completely.

You’re left dazed, shellshocked, and wounded—fully relating to the term “love bombing” and wondering if any of it was even real.

If this sounds familiar, then this video is for you as I share 3 tests that will help you spot a love bomber.

Maybe this will sound familiar: After a few bad dating experiences, you say to yourself, “My life is pretty awesome as it is, so why do I even want someone else disturbing my peace?”

The thought of not having to deal with the dating process may feel like a huge relief in that moment . . . but what actually happens when you decide not to put yourself out there anymore (when deep down, you still want to find love)? 

In today’s episode, I share 5 ways you can get back into dating that won’t lead to burnout. You’ll see how to maintain your peace while also giving yourself permission to take small (or even big) swings in love.

When it comes to dating, does the fear of rejection stop you from being yourself?

Whether it’s approaching someone at a coffee shop, reaching out first on an app, or allowing yourself to “let go” whilst on a date, this fear is the very thing that will have you looking back wistfully and saying “What if?” years from now rather than saying “Why not?” in the moment.

Of course, in a world where people are constantly trying to curate and filter their lives, it’s no wonder most of us find it scary to try something where validation isn’t guaranteed.

And while it might not be possible to feel completely immune to the fear of rejection, there are things you can do to move beyond that paralyzing anxiety.

In today’s episode, I’m going to give you three secrets to changing your relationship with rejection . . .

Do you attract emotionally unavailable people? Or maybe you have a pattern of meeting good people and pushing them away because “something doesn’t feel right.” If this sounds familiar, you may struggle to trust your own decisions when it comes to love.

What if you’ve been dating someone with whom you feel a truly unique and natural connection, but they have a fatal flaw that means a relationship is impossible?

There is a real danger to the feeling that this person is irreplaceable, when you tell yourself “I can’t find this connection with anyone else”. 

If we never make space for something new, never let go, and always hold onto hope of what might have been, we can get stuck on an old relationship forever.

So if you’re ready to truly move on and get over “the one that got away”, this video will help you move forward with confidence and certainty.

Joe met Lisa on a trip to the Bahamas.

He saw her sipping a cocktail and asked her what she was drinking. (It was a Mai Tai.) He ordered a Whisky Sour.

Then it was on to talking all night. They kissed, they danced, and he told her after a few days that he had never met anyone like her.

Now Lisa had a weird feeling: “Uh-oh, I’ve fallen for this guy…”

She thought about him every day when she got home, remembering that perfect moment on the boat trip when he took her hand and pulled her tight to him.

But then... he never called…(I know, it’s horrible, right?)

The truth is, this often happens because of some very simple mistakes we make when it comes to falling in love.

In this week’s rewind episode, I’ll show you how to avoid them...

It would be nice if we had a crystal ball telling us which romantic flings would work out at the very beginning so we didn’t invest precious time in the wrong people.   It can be hard to read someone’s intentions in the early stages.

I can’t make you a foolproof lie detector, and I can’t guarantee you’ll never be ghosted again, but I can make you a competent “detector of intentions” so you have the best possible chance of investing your time into people who are serious about a relationship with you.

There’s a line from the movie Vanilla Sky that I’ve always loved. It’s when Tom Cruise’s character realizes: “The little things... There’s nothing bigger, is there?” 

That’s often true in attraction too.    So many people are looking for the huge epiphany, instead of the subtle-yet-powerful changes to their behavior that can skyrocket their results. 

As you’ll hear in this episode, turning someone’s head doesn’t have to be complicated.

Over the past week, so many of you have expressed how much Angela’s story in my new book, Love Life, touched you deeply (in the chapter titled “Have Hard Conversations”). So this week I thought I’d share the actual interview with her from my Live Retreat. I’ve found that one of the biggest confidence-killers in dating happens when we dwell on the reasons why someone may not be attracted to us. Our looks, our age, our past, even the fact that we have kids—the fear of rejection for who we are can stop us before we get started. Angela’s story is one of the most impactful I’ve heard on confidence and insecurity, and I think you’ll love hearing it in her own words. ►► Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► Transform Your Relationship with Life in 6 Magical Days.

I’ve been asked this question several times a week for the last 10+ years.

On dating apps, first impressions matter.

And after you clear the first hurdle of endless swiping and find someone who piques your interest, it’s often the next step that’s the hardest . . .

That is, of course: What on EARTH do you say to them?!

You scan their bio, hoping inspiration will strike and you’ll manage to figure out the perfect opening gambit. You think:

Would a simple “hey” or “great photo” show a lack of imagination?

I’d like to just be myself, but it can feel so hard to be authentic without seeming too eager . . .

Many times, thoughts like these make us overthink everything to the point where we end up sending something awkward . . . or worse, not sending anything at all, letting the opportunity of connection pass us by.

A bad date—where we know we won’t see the person again—can be frustrating since it wastes our time. But what’s even MORE frustrating? An amazing date with someone who just disappears after seeing us only once or twice.

It leaves us wondering: “What happened?? I thought we had real chemistry!”

In this episode, I explain exactly why someone pulls away after a first date… (and how you can tell the difference between someone who’s a keeper vs. someone who’s just telling you what you want to hear.)

Long-distance relationships are a tough gig. You miss each other. You feel like a separate part of their life at times. And you don’t always know when you’ll be together again. So . . . is it worth it? Well, it depends. Long-distance relationships are tough, but there are warning signs that can help tell you if it’s likely to work long-term. In fact, there’s one thing someone can SAY to you that basically guarantees a long-distance relationship won’t last, and I share it in this episode. ►► Pre-Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► Join a Community of People Learning to Transform Their Impact with People, Their Happiness in Life and Their Love for Themselves.

Dating fatigue is real.

Given the option, I think most people would choose to bypass the process entirely and skip directly to being in a meaningful relationship.

But since science isn’t quite there yet, how can you manage your energy so the dating process—the part you need in order to FIND that relationship—doesn’t burn you out before you even GET to the good stuff?

In today’s video, I share 5 tips that will help you find an energy-replenishing relationship rather than an energy-depleting one. You’ll learn how to:  

• Ease into getting to know someone rather than pinning all your hopes and dreams on them.

• Communicate from a place of strength rather than insecurity.

• Match your investment and energy to the stage of the relationship you’re actually in.

You’ll want to bookmark this video and rewatch it before any date.

People think going on a date with someone is simple.

You dress up, groom yourself, and head to an overpriced bar. Then you talk, ask questions, blah blah blah. Gulp down a few drinks. Maybe a kiss. End of story.

Well... that’s not bad.

But do you really want to be just the “not bad” person in their head?

Wouldn’t you rather they go home in a romantic haze, unable to take their mind off this new, unendingly fascinating person who they just pray will answer their texts the next day?

Thought so.

If you really want them to miss you after only 24 hours, don’t leave the first encounter without throwing in a few of these techniques...

Why does the end of a passionate short-term romance sometimes feel more devastating than a longer-term relationship? It’s because short-term romances are like fireworks—explosive and exciting—only to fizzle out soon after. We get addicted to the feeling of intensity they give us, and feel empty when they disappear. In today’s episode, I’ll show you the best way to move on from a short-term romance and stop obsessing over “the person who got away.” ►► Access My Happiness After heartbreak Series for FREE by Pre-Ordering Your Copy of Love Life Now at. . . → http://www.HeartbreakSeries.com ►► Pre-Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” → http://www.DatingWithResults.com

Dating is tough.

The person we’re meeting up with may have been on multiple other dates this month. How can we stand out when there seems to be so much competition? 

The #1 way to separate ourselves is through great conversation. And yet most of us spend all of our time trying to look hot without ever thinking about what we’re going to say when we get there.

 I’m sure you already have the “looking great” part taken care of.

 But in today’s episode, I cover the “what to say” part—specifically, how to stand out by asking one of 8 tried-and-tested questions I’ve put together for you.

Do you know why heartbreak hits us as hard as it does? In today’s episode, I found the answer in an interview with the world-leading expert on grief, David Kessler. It turns out, a lot of us are carrying around “unattended grief” that affects us in ways we don’t even realize. We often don’t give ourselves the space to fully feel what we need to in order to break free. This new episode is an important one.

It’s normal to want to put our best selves forward on a first date . . . but sometimes this makes us hide who we really are. And that’s a shame, because someone may not see the real version of us—the one they’d want to see again and again. So how do you create authentic attraction early on? What are the things you could do that would make someone excited for a second date with you? In today’s new episode, I share 3 natural ways to get and keep someone’s interest on a first date and beyond. 

You may not know this, but you probably have an unconscious dating mindset.

We all do. It might be learned from our parents, an early relationship, or any other kind of formative childhood experience, but it affects so much of our behavior when we meet someone we like.

In today’s new video, I’m going to share 3 of the most dangerous dating mindsets to avoid, and one powerful mindset that will let you enjoy the process while naturally attracting the person you really want.

Have you dated someone you find so amazing and impressive that you almost start to feel not good enough for them? Maybe it’s their attractiveness or intelligence . . . or perhaps it’s their success, wealth, or status (such as the example in today’s episode) that has you feeling lucky whenever they turn their attention to you. Whatever it might be, the reaction we often have to this feeling is highly toxic for our happiness . . . because we start to shrink our needs. We become pleasers and find it almost impossible to set any kind of boundaries for fear that this will drive them away and they’ll disappear.

Have you ever wondered what the right amount of effort to put in with someone is? Should you let them know you’d like to go on a date with them? And what about after the date. . . Should you let them know you’d like to see them again if you felt the date went well but they're not being proactive about setting up another one? Where is the line between showing someone you like them, and chasing someone who’s simply not that interested? It can be tricky. But I want to make it simple. You may have heard me say, “Invest in those who invest in you.” But that could leave you wondering to yourself: “Fine Matthew, but so often that means I’m doing nothing because no one is investing in me!

One thing no one ever warns you about happy relationships is just how many awkward conversations they can require you to have. And despite all the big ones of politics, religion and family – I find one topic almost no one wants to talk about is money. Who should pay on a date? Should you be honest with your partner how much money (or debt) you have? How do you handle it when one of you earns significantly higher income in a relationship than the other? These are all hugely important, and yet most people bury their heads in the sand and hope these issues will magically work themselves out if you’re truly in love (pro tip: they won’t). So in this week’s video, I sat down with my good friend Ramit Sethi, bestselling author and CEO of "I Will Teach You To Be Rich," to learn exactly how to have these difficult conversations so you can feel happy and secure about money in your relationship. I’ve never talked about this before, so I can’t wait to hear your comments on this one... Appearance by RAMIT SETHI Ramit Sethi iwillteachyoutoberich.com

 It’s hard to find love when you don’t feel loveable yourself. When you know you’ve made a ton of mistakes. Or you’ve internalized the idea that you’re just not a likable person. It becomes a self-perpetuating cycle: “I don’t like myself, so why should anyone else like me?” Then we feel lonely, beat ourselves up, feel like a failure, and like ourselves even less than before. We retreat more and more into our shells and lose that “spark” that makes us attractive to someone else as a potential partner. This is exhausting. It’s unfair. And it doesn’t do justice to who you really are on the inside and everything you have to give to the world. It’s an overwhelming step to think about how to suddenly become supremely confident.

I’ve found that one of the biggest confidence-killers in dating happens when we dwell on the reasons why someone may not be attracted to us.

Betrayal. Anger. Heartbreak. These emotions are normal in the wake of a breakup. But often, especially if we feel we’ve been mistreated by the person we broke up with, anger lingers long after it’s productive.

There are many qualities that help keep a long-term relationship. When people typically think of things that matter in a relationship, they often list traits or things they like in an ideal partner: sexual chemistry, a sense of humor, intelligence, and kindness.

When you get excited about someone, it's easy to get caught in the trap of obsessive thinking. You try to move too quickly. You check your phone constantly waiting for their texts.

Over the past 15 years, I've coached so many high-achieving individuals who seemingly have it all, but for whom finding love is a massive struggle.

What's holding them back? FEAR.

They fear that opening themselves up and facing rejection could shatter the identity they've built as a confident and accomplished person. To me, this is shame, as it is clear their ego is getting in the way of being happy.

In today’s new episode, I talk with author and radio host Tanya Rad, who shares what she did to get what she wanted in dating and how she found her current boyfriend in the process. Her honesty is refreshing, and whether you’re in a relationship or not, I think you’ll learn something new about setting standards (and going easy on yourself when things don’t go as planned!) Moreover, her insights will help you weed out the people who are just looking for something casual so you can find the right person faster. --- Discover the 4 Secrets for Escaping Casual Dating Traps.

Do you find yourself always measuring your life against other people you know? Or are you worried about whether you have achieved enough, made enough money, or got the right partner by a certain age? If so, you know what it's like to be stuck in the "comparison trap". While it can be useful to have goals to keep us motivated, we have to remember we are often comparing ourselves to people with completely different lives and experiences than us. In this clip, Matt explains his own struggles with comparison and how to keep your happiness and get perspective so you're not always focusing on other people's journey.

When someone we hoped we would be with forever breaks up with us, the pain of heartbreak that follows can be akin to torture.

Sometimes it’s hard to tell the difference between dating anxiety and your needs not being met.   If you know your insecurity can lead your thoughts down irrational pathways, how can you figure out if something you’re stressing about is a real concern? For instance, if you had the most amazing date last weekend but they haven’t texted you for a few days, should you be worried? And most importantly of all, how do you get more investment from someone if you’re feeling this way?

We’re all familiar with obvious red flags, but some red flags feel so good, they’re easy to miss . . . you know, like when someone is saying the most romantic things, wanting to spend all of their time with us, and making plans for the future . . .

Are you one of those people who “loves the chase” in dating? You meet someone, you find them attractive, maybe even go on a date, and you start to become MORE obsessed when they show you less attention, less affection, or when they play hot and cold.

When is the appropriate time to ask where a relationship is going? If you’ve been seeing someone for a month and are sleeping together . . . can you ask then? Should you wait four months to make sure you don’t come on too strong? Or maybe you should wait for THEM to ask you? And if they don’t bring it up . . . is that a bad sign?

"What if you're so afraid of rocking the boat with someone you REALLY like that you forget to uphold your biggest standards?"

We’ve been told from a very young age to “play it cool” . . . But as we grow up, we realize that when we feel we need to “play it cool” to keep someone interested, that often means we’re feeling anything but cool . . . and it usually comes from a place of insecurity or a fear of being rejected. Pretty soon, we find ourselves calibrating our conversations and contorting ourselves to meet the other person’s needs so we don’t come off as needy or a nuisance, and little by little, we start to show them that our needs can be ignored with no repercussions . . .   In today’s new episode, you’ll learn the best way to increase attraction and investment in a way that doesn’t diminish your value or make you feel like a nuisance simply for stating your needs. --- ►► Finally Start Believing in Your Own Worth.

We've all been told that we should never come on too strong, and that playing it cool is the best way to get someone interested. But how much interest is the right amount to show in the early days of dating?

In today's brand-new episode, I share 5 tips on how to approach this in the early stages of dating so you can not only show the right amount of interest, but also encourage the same in the other person.

• The importance of connection + preventing male loneliness

When it comes to the traits we want in a partner, “emotionally unavailable” is never on the list. So why do so many of us end up dating not just one emotionally unavailable person, but a series of them?

Whether our partner tried to steal our joy at every opportunity, or they wore down our self-esteem with endless arguments and cold-shoulder treatments . . . the end of a relationship like this will leave us feeling disoriented and lost, and it can be hard to rewire our brains and resume normal life once we’re free.   At this point, it can be unbelievably hard to trust other people again.

We all long for financial independence, relationship bliss, greater familial connection, and a generally peaceful life with fewer hardships. But as it happens, life doesn’t care about the straight-line trajectory we've planned for ourselves. It will capriciously take a person from us at a time we weren’t prepared for. It will injure us when we need to be active. It will rob us of our finances in a bad business deal we thought was a sure thing. It will take away a relationship we thought would last forever. And when these things inevitably happen, it can feel like we’re grieving the loss of some future that’s now no longer available to us . . . But life is cyclical and doesn’t trend in just one direction. This is why it is imperative for us to take our focus off of where we feel we “ought to be” and make peace with life as it is today. Because the truth is, there’s always time to reinvent ourselves, meet somebody new, or fix something broken in our lives. And it is our job to cherish and learn from the wisdom gained from our past experiences instead of wishing things had gone a different way. --- Get Real Results in your Love Life This Year...

Have you ever felt like a magnet for avoidants or wondered if commitment-phobic people are all that’s left in the dating pool?   It’s as if you can’t even get anything off the ground, because consistent communication is never in the cards with the people you’re dating. And when you’re dating someone where everything’s falling into place EXCEPT for the fact that they’re avoidant, it can be tempting to rationalize any reason to stay.   But why do we do this, and why does this situation make us want to hold on so tightly to a person who’s not giving us what we need?

A huge number of relationships that end, should end. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But how do we know if ‘ours’ should have ended. We leave with a giant question mark: “Did I just lose the person I was supposed to be with?” ⠀ That lack of closure is a horrible feeling that eats away at us. We don’t always get perfect closure. But there is a way of being proactive about getting peace of mind if you feel like you have someone who is worth fighting for. ⠀ It’s through a simple conversation, and I tell you how to have it in this video. ⠀ And here’s the good news - whatever happens, you and I are going to move into this next chapter of our lives stronger. (Massive thanks to @rayna.greenberg, @ashhess and the @girlsgottaeatpodcast for making this conversation possible!)

Have you experienced a situation where in spite of having dated someone for a short time, it took you weeks (sometimes even months) to start to feel like you’re over them? And have you found it’s EXACTLY at that moment—the moment you decide to move on with your life—that they suddenly pop back up like clockwork? Even though you know better, they somehow draw you back in with the hope that this time, things will be different. This week’s new video will allow you to finally rid yourself of the hold this person has over you, so you can begin to sculpt your life the way you want it. And don’t miss the “value exercise” I share at the end. I know you’ll get a lot out of it! --- ►► Start Truly Believing in Your Own Worth.

This is something a little different for you today. I wanted to share a beautiful conversation I had with my good friend Humble the Poet, where we talk about how to love yourself, set boundaries, and build healthier habits around love and attraction.   In this new episode, we go deep. It touches upon some incredibly important truths relating to how to get back in touch with ourselves (and what makes us happy), so we can make better choices in a partner.   I found his words incredibly heartwarming and uplifting, and I hope you’ll feel the same way.

One of the most special moments in life is when we feel seen and in turn see somebody else for who they genuinely are. But this level of DEEP connection requires vulnerability. Truly opening up, being vulnerable and allowing someone to see us at our very core can be terrifying. It’s especially terrifying if we’ve opened ourselves up and been hurt in the process. We all have those negative reference points from our past. Maybe it was the way we were brought up, something that happened at school or the way we were treated in a past relationship. We experience pain and as a result our guard goes up. And although we may think that we’re avoiding pain, refusing to get vulnerable comes with its own pain. The pain of stagnation. The pain of avoidance. The pain of knowing that on some level we’re not opening ourselves up to the possibility of a deep connection, an amazing relationship or simply the opportunities that would allow us to create our best lives. So, I challenge you to make today the day you change that. --- The Virtual Retreat is officially back this June 2-4! And there's a special "Early Bird" offer available until the end of January.

Have you ever been a victim of the most painful kind of ghosting . . . where you’re haunted by the fact that you never got closure with someone? It’s the sort of thing that can consume your thoughts as you obsessively look over the final exchange you had with the person and enlist your friends to help you dissect it, hoping they can spot a clue you might have missed. The reality is that this need for clarity and closure is a bid for control in a situation where you have none. Not only that, but every time you allow your thoughts to head in that direction, it’s another scratch at a wound that wants so badly to heal. In today’s brand-new episode, I give you the tools you need to move on for good from this kind of ghosting, including a text message you can send . . . not to get closure from them but to give yourself the closure you need. ►► Unlock My Best Dating Solution for Your Current Dating Situation Take the Quiz for Free at. . . . → http://www.YourDatingSolution.com ►► FREE download: “9 Texts No Man Can Resist” → http://www.9texts.com ►► FREE download: “5 Compliments to Get Him Addicted to You” → http://www.SayThisToHim.com

I truly loved this conversation my friend @lindseystirling . So often in life we’re told how important it is to love ourselves without any explanation of what that actually means or how to practically apply that advice. If you’ve ever found yourself struggling with this concept, one practical tool is to recognize how we love other really important people in our lives. Our parents, children, siblings, nieces, nephews, old friends . . . our love for them doesn't have anything to do with whether they have a good day or a bad day today. We love them because they’re ours, even though they can sometimes be difficult or don't always realize their potential. And that’s how we have to start viewing ourselves. We don’t need to find all of these amazing things about ourselves to start valuing ourselves more. We love ourselves because we’re ours. WE are the ones responsible for looking after us. Love yourself like it's your job; because it IS. --- Download your free guide on how to get back into dating after heartbreak. Go to 3SecretsToLove.com and get your copy.

Why is it we become “too nice” with someone we like? It can feel like there is a before/after switch, where we decide we’re attracted to someone, feel the butterflies in our stomach, and can’t help but tighten up and struggle to express our real selves. And often, this can result in us being too accommodating, or giving polite-yet-boring responses, or in trying too hard to be liked instead of allowing natural chemistry and flirtation to happen. In this episode, Matt, Stephen, Audrey and Jameson talk about why we become “too nice", what we can do to be more of who we really are, and how to show our most attractive self in dating.

Happy New Year, Friend!

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about the New Year's resolutions people make, and I'm curious how you're feeling about yours today.

After indulging during the holidays, we often place our hopes in the hands of our future selves, determined that this will be the year everything changes. Of course, having goals is a good thing, but the biggest challenge with New Year's resolutions is how quickly they can buckle under the weight of our expectations.

But it doesn't need to be that complicated.

Whether you're stressed about the fact that the "you" who woke up today feels just like the "you" who woke up yesterday ... or you just want to ensure your love life goals actually happen this year, this brand-new episode is going to help you get into the right mindset for 2023.

You've got this!

As we roll into the New Year, it seems like as good a time as any to talk about our standards. We think of a new year as being a time where we reset our standards, don’t we? And yet, have you ever worried that you’re being too picky? And have you ever wondered if this “pickiness” is the thing that’s stopping you from finding a relationship? I was on stage when a woman stood up and asked: “Matthew, should I listen to my mum and lower my standards?” It’s a hard thing trying to figure out if the reasons you are rejecting people are valid, or if they represent an “unreasonable” standard that you need to let go of. I hope this provides a little clarity... Happy Holidays again, friend. I’m thinking of you more than ever right now. --- ►► Discover the Text Messages That Get You Off Your Phone and Into a REAL Relationship… → http://MomentumTexts.com

OK, picture this . . . I’m in my local coffee shop, minding my own business—my business in this case is ordering an oat milk flat white (just in case we ever go to coffee and you want to know what my order is)—and I get talking to a woman who tells me she’s mad at me. She knows who I am, she’s a fan, she even said my program worked for her, and yet she told me she was mad at me. In this episode, I tell the full story . . . You’re going to want to listen to the full story, because it highlights how so many people get hurt because they follow 95% of my advice, but ignore one of the most crucial things I say. Think of it this way: you can have all the right ingredients to bake a cake, but if you forget to add baking powder, the cake isn’t going to rise.

If you’ve asked yourself this question long enough, you might be starting to feel like finding love is simply a matter of luck. And sometimes that’s true.

For a long time I thought it was crazy how many women asked me to talk about this topic. But now, I realize the reason is obvious: In 2022, more of us are doing long-distance relationships than ever. You meet a great guy on Instagram who doesn’t live in the same country... You start dating the perfect man in your city, only to find out he’s been offered a new job 1000 miles away… And suddenly, you find yourself having “Skype dates”, and you now spend half your work day sending silly photos to each other on Whatsapp. You feel like you’re falling in love with this guy – but can it actually work long term?? Should you follow your heart and go for it, or should you listen to your head and call it quits? What’s the answer? These are big questions, so I decided this it was time to be super honest about long-distance and my thoughts on it. --- Here’s what you really need to know... ►► FREE download: “9 Texts to Get Any Man” → http://www.9texts.com ►► FREE download: “5 Compliments to Get Him Addicted to You” → http://www.SayThisToHim.com

“Let’s just take it day by day.”

 “We may not be ‘official,’ but I basically act like your boyfriend. Aren’t actions enough for you?”

 “I like you too much to be with you . . .”

Any of these sound familiar?

Trying to decode the excuses guys give for the reason why they don’t want an exclusive relationship can get incredibly confusing. How is it that you can have great communication with a guy in nearly every area . . . yet when it comes to talking about the relationship, you feel like you’re speaking different languages?

For today’s brand-new episode, I asked you to send me the “most confusing thing a guy’s ever said to you,” and you didn’t disappoint. 

From classic excuses to creative new ones, you’ll learn how to figure out whether what he’s saying is actually a red flag indicating that he’s just looking for something casual with you, or whether it’s safe to proceed. Together we’ll walk through 9 of the top excuses so you know how to spot them in the future and avoid unnecessary pain.

You're on a date with someone.

You're both sharing stories. 

He tells you that he plays the guitar. You notice that he seems really proud when he tells you about playing his first gig.

Then without missing a moment, you start enthusiastically telling him about your friend who's also in a band, is the best guitarist you've ever seen, and has just released and album.

Suddenly, his eyes narrow and he seems emotionally checked out, maybe even less interested.

Why? What happened?

In this episode with my brother Stephen, I'm going to reveal a simple flirting mistake that is all too easily made, and why it's can be such a turnoff to guys in dating.

In the early days of dating, figuring out if someone is actually open to a relationship is key.

But what does it mean when you ask them whether they're interested in a committed relationship and they respond, "I could be open to that. . . with the right person"?

This sentence can make us feel safe to dive in, but do we really know whether they're truly looking for a relationship. . . or just telling us what we want to hear?

In today's episode, I give you three things to look for in those early days to limit the guesswork and know if things are actually progressing toward real commitment.

Back in ye olden times, the fear that a partner might be cheating was enough to keep someone up at night. But in recent years, we’ve added a new layer of anxiety to the mix: “micro-cheating,” a.k.a. “back burner relationships.”   In fact, when Psychology Today recently polled people who are in a relationship, 56% revealed they had a back burner person: someone they’re in contact with who could be an option if their current relationship doesn’t go the distance.   That’s not to say that everyone realizes what they’re doing. Many feel it’s harmless—that they’re just being friendly and keeping in touch with a friend.

Today’s clip will give you a simple test to figure out if you’re in a back burner relationship, and provide you with the mindset you need to give your current one its best shot.

Why are toxic relationships so hard to leave? One reason is because you hold onto the small good moments and fail to acknowledge the extent of the bad. 

And when we feel sympathy for someone, this also makes us doubt ourselves. We think "Maybe I'm wrong?", "Maybe I'm being too harsh on this person?", "Maybe it's actually ok?" 

In this episode, Matt, Stephen, Audrey and Jameson talk about how to get the courage to let go of a narcissistic or toxic relationship and feel certain in your decision when you keep doubting yourself.

Have you ever created an entire relationship in your head before going on a date with someone? Perhaps you’ve been texting with them for weeks and have already deduced they could be “The One,” or maybe you live for the two minutes of conversation you have with them before spin class.

And in order to fan the flames of your excitement, you turn into a social media detective, where their posts and information become “compatibility clues” that either build up or tear down the relationship you’ve created in your mind . . .   Unfortunately, living in our heads in this way can turn into obsessing, and render us incapable of feeling excited about anything other than seeing or hearing from that person. In other words, they occupy a space in our minds they’ve not yet earned!

In this week’s new video, I share with you the mindsets that can both help and hurt you in dating, as well as the best way to determine if you and this person could really work out.

In a previous episode, we talked about the struggles dating can pose when women are thinking about their desire for children and their biological clock, and all the associated anxieties that can come with it. 

And we had some incredible and thoughtful responses to what is rightfully a very difficult and emotional topic to discuss (but also an essential one).

In this episode, we take the conversation further and look at the disparity between men and women in future planning, why freezing your eggs and planning fertility can be its own enormous challenge, and how to think about making decisions about the future you want when you haven't met the right person yet.

It’s Halloween time, and for the occasion, in today’s video I talk about what might be the most insidious form of ghosting. 

If someone ghosts you after a couple of tepid dates (which doesn’t feel good, don’t get me wrong) you can usually assume they just weren’t feeling the chemistry . . .   But what does it mean when someone pulls away after saying they want to be exclusive, or after texting constantly and telling you they want to see you all the time? 

In this brand-new episode, I give you three reasons why someone might do this, what you should do when it happens, and the strange reason why they may choose to ghost but leave the door open. You can’t miss this topic!

Ever notice how you completely fall apart when you try to speak to that guy you’re really attracted to?

It’s like with your best friends you can be effortlessly funny, talkative, and smart, then suddenly you’re talking to this guy and your brain turns to mush.

Then begins the negative self-talk:

“I’m not pretty enough,” “I have nothing interesting to say,” “He’s not going to like me.”

It’s like you instantly lose all of your game.

You go into “impress” mode. You over-analyze everything you say. You get in your head. Instead of just having fun in the moment, you start playing it cautious, like you’re in a game of chess and the stakes are life and death.

If you want to finally stop putting guys on a pedestal and instill new empowering beliefs that will make you bring your best to the table (no matter who you’re talking to) listen to this clip before you do anything else...

You know . . . you love the idea of a great, stable guy who treats you right, but somehow you’ve become so accustomed to the highs and lows of roller-coaster relationships that you can’t imagine feeling chemistry with such a man.
