Love Life with Matthew Hussey

It always surprises me how often a potentially great relationship is cut short because of avoidable mistakes and insecure behaviors that we haven’t learned to manage. “But doesn’t love solve everything?” Well, not exactly. What often happens is that these toxic patterns slowly undermine every chance at love we find (or at least make the search much harder than it needs to be). In this week’s Rewind episode, I want to share the three most common behaviors that can scare someone off before they have a chance to truly fall for you. Avoid these, and you’ll find it much easier to let someone see your best qualities and build a healthy, happy relationship. --- ►► Ask Matthew AI Your Biggest Dating Question for Free Now at. . . → http://www.AskMH.com ►► Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” → http://www.DatingWithResults.com

How do you stop obsessing over someone you’ve recently started dating? When someone seems to tick all our boxes, it can be hard to NOT become flooded with thoughts of a possible future together. We anxiously wait for their text. We put them on a pedestal . . . and as a result, potentially push them away. In this week’s episode, I share 5 things you can do to stop falling for someone too quickly. By following these steps, you’ll be able to keep your value and actually enjoy dating instead of getting stuck in anxiety. ►► Ask Matthew AI Your Biggest Dating Question for Free Now at. . . → http://www.AskMH.com ►► Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” → http://www.DatingWithResults.com

Over my career, I’ve had so many people ask me how to get someone to actually call them. We seem to live on our phones these days, and yet, it feels like no one wants to pick them up and actually have a conversation. We're all good with texting, posting on social media, or sending messages, but when it comes to hearing someone’s voice? Well, that seems like too much to ask. Or is it? I've seen people make this way more complicated than it needs to be, so let’s simplify things. If you're tired of texting endlessly and want to create a real connection through conversation, here are 3 killer techniques to get them to pick up the phone and call you... --- ►► Ask Matthew AI Your Biggest Dating Question for Free Now at. . . → http://www.AskMH.com ►► Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” → http://www.DatingWithResults.com

THIS is one of the top reasons why a breakup can feel so raw . . . You may have only recently let your guard down and shown your real feelings, only to have the other person end things. This can feel especially painful because it’s like they’ve rejected you for who you truly are at your core. But it doesn’t have to feel that way, because it’s not actually true. And in today’s new episode, I explore 5 different mindsets that can ease heartbreak and restore confidence so you can find the right person faster. ►► Ask Matthew AI Your Biggest Dating Question for Free Now at. . . → http://www.AskMH.com ►► Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” → http://www.DatingWithResults.com

When you’re in love and someone decides to end the relationship, it’s natural for your brain to go into "panic mode." Why are they doing this? How can I be the person they want? What can I say to win them back? If you allow these swirling thoughts to take over, you’ll likely end up pushing them further and further away. Now, I’m not here to tell you whether or not you should give things another try with your ex. There are many factors to consider, which we can talk about another time. But what I do know is that if you want to have a real chance of reconnecting, you must understand this important truth before taking the next step... --- ►► Ask Matthew AI Your Biggest Dating Question for Free Now at. . . → http://www.AskMH.com ►► Order My New Book, "Love Life" at → http://www.LoveLifeBook.com ►► FREE Video Training: “Dating With Results” → http://www.DatingWithResults.com

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. We may even start to loosen our standards and become attached to someone who’s only giving us crumbs. In today’s episode, I dive into the subtle-but-profound difference between those who successfully find love, and those who continue to remain in limbo. 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. It’s a rational, practical strategy for how to navigate your love life after someone has hurt you, or broken your heart or your trust (or all 3). ----- ►► Discover the Biggest Reason Why People Struggle to Get Commitment, and How You Can Avoid “Relationship Limbo” Once and for All.

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 learn in this episode, making a deeper connection doesn't have to be complicated.

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
