Tired of dating the wrong people? When we really want to find a relationship, saying “no” to the people who don’t align with our core values can feel scary . . . especially when we’re not meeting a lot of people we connect with.

You’ll also learn how to cultivate the right culture in your life to attract a lasting, fulfilling relationship (plus I share a story from my younger days as a DJ).

Have you ever been hurt badly by someone in love?Those wounds can stay with us a long time. They can stop us from taking chances again in love.They can make us afraid of getting close to someone again… Afraid of being vulnerable again…Afraid of letting someone in…Because if the result of letting our guard down and choosing to love someone is that we give up all of our power, then why bother, right? Sure, we may be giving up the special experience of being in love, but at least we don’t have to experience those dreadful lows.If you can relate to this, today’s episode is for you. You’ll hear me doing a live demonstration with someone who is going through exactly this issue. And what I tell her may be exactly the words you need to hear right now.This episode isn’t a pep talk.

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: AskMH.com ►► Get My Latest Dating Tips and Connect With Me: Facebook → @coachmatthewhussey Instagram → @thematthewhussey Twitter → @matthewhussey Hosted on Acast.

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.---►► Transform Your Relationship with Life in 6 Magical Days . . .

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.

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 . . .---►► Transform Your Relationship with Life in 6 Magical Days . . .
