    Thank you for watching this powerful video with Matthew Hussey!

    -----
    Matthew Hussey is a sought-after dating coach and NYT best-selling author who is a breath of fresh air in the dating advice scene.
    Matt and I met a couple years ago around a TV show that he was a matchmaker on and I was impressed not only by his dating savvy but by his business savvy as well. He is now a regular on the Today Show and hosts live events that close to 100,000 women have attended. And his CZcams videos where he gives dating advice are amazing (I watch them myself).
    He came by my studio and we had an awesome conversation (which could have gone on for hours) about the best ways to actually meet someone you are interested in. He also gave great advice about keeping the desire in your existing relationship. Beyond his tips, however, Matt dove into the other reasons we struggle to meet the partner of our dreams - and it has a lot to do with entitlement.
    I loved this conversation and can’t wait to have Matt back on the show.No matter where you are in your love life, prepare to get expert coaching from Matthew Hussey in Episode 189.

      Yep, in my mid20's, I realized that I was tired of "fun guys", and deliberately chose a stable, computer geek. He was terrible in bed because he had no experience, yet was open to learning and it worked well for 20 years! We've been divorced for about five years now, used a mediator, and our son can see we have a good friendly relationship. Most of these on line guys are looking for cheap sex, and will drop you in a heartbeat if they deem you "clingy/crazy" if you expect more attachment after sex. No more online for me. I don't need to be told how to be attractive to a man; I already am...the problem is warding off the schemers. I'm not going to be a nurse and.a purse for any man; I actually am an RN, and much more wealthy, healthy, and fit than the creepers 5-10 older than me. Some websites and you tube offenders are selling some kind of bullshit program to supposedly help losers find attractive women and sleep with them without a date. SMH...Listen Up, Mister scores a lot......just pay for a pro and stop the scamming....

      @@gigi9301 Men who want a nurse/surrogate mother, open legs and an open wallet are an interesting breed of parasites. Mr Party Animal acting like a lothario has less appeal than a dependable, considerate and patient computer geek. Excitement grows tedious and exhausting. Many addicts appear dynamic and the life of the party when high then crash into a dribbling, demeaning and depressive mess. Sober, caring and serious with a playful edge, sharp eye and cheeky sense of humour sure beats a crazy, cunning, calculating and cocky con artist or helpless draining man-child.

    I think a lot of times that we are in love with the imaginary person that we want them to be when in reality they are really not that person at all, which is why the relationship ended. A year from now most of us will be like "what the hell was i thinking"? Not in a bad way, just in how we moved on and how life is fine without this person that we thought we couldn't be with out.

    This is why when my friend says she's looking for a man who's ambitious and passionate about work, I just scoff. I dated a super-ambitious workaholic before. I was initially attracted to him because of his success and passion. Then I realized that his priority is always his work, everything else just takes second seat. It got too frustrating and lonely.

      A man who’s super ambitious and successful is already extremely rare. You trying to find the perfect balance will be damn near impossible. Sometimes you need to make sacrifices to get the life that you want… the life that a successful man can provide you. A man that’s successful most likely will not have a lot of extra time for you unless you want a guy that’s near retirement. Think in terms of probability, not possibility

    "You were boring..."
    What I've learned thus far in life, relationships or not, is that when somebody tells you something that's initially hurtful to you (whether you ask or not), it's probably for your highest good NOT to fight back. Not only because losing your cool is, in a weird way, a "gift" to the other person, letting them know that they GOT you, but more deeply...being told something is an opportunity to stop and ask "Well...could this be true?" I've been told many things in my life that were hurtful and not true. "You're lazy, you're unreasonable...etc, etc"...Hurtful, but an opportunity to stop and look at yourself. That's my opinion, anyway.

      @victoriatrzaska3815 Před 3 lety +3

      @@jimmypetri12 She is probably checking if you've moved on. It's a natural reaction. I think she cares, but does not realise that she is conflicted herself. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder". In my opinion, listen to your own heart and try to understand what made you both have a break up.
      The likely hood of you guys separating is because she (in this case if she broke with you) doesn't know if the gras is greener outside of your relationship.
      Some people may think that "no matter what" there "must" be a "better" or "GREATER" person out there. An imaginary person created in their fantasy mind that fits their "needs". It's like being a treasure hunter trying to find a treasure that can't be found "vision". The point is, there is no perfect or in this case "GREATER" out there.
      You attract what you are energetically. Again, law of attraction.

    I think also that conversation and transparency is one of the keys for a long term relationship. It starts with small black points here and there, each person keep it inside, and all that time it's growing, till it exploses one day. Couples need to talk when it's not okay too.

    • @blueviolette
      @blueviolette Před rokem +1

      Exactly, and such as Matthew's example: if she told him before that she felt he was being boring and that she wanted different activities, etc. from the relationship, things could have changed. But she chose to leave instead. I don't understand how one person can think some things are unchangeable and just leave the relationship. They should be able to communicate the issues with their partner and see if they're solvable, and then decide whether they still want to end it or not.

    I suspect if you have rare qualities or unique pairings in your personality some people might be worried that they can't match you so don't try to date you because they'd feel they don't bring as much to the table. Or they may think you're too good to be true.

At first I was impressed with his commitment to his children's happiness. Unfortunately, as time went on, I realized it was to an unhealthy level and at a detriment to his own needs, hobbies, interests, friends, romance, even his own parents took a backseat to his children. Like to the point where an elder is on death's door in a hospital and because his daughter (the 16 year old) had a soccer game, he chose that over going to the hospital for what could of been the last time they saw the person! 😳 And yes, he and the hospitalized family member were close.... yet apparently not close enough to miss his daughter's game. Nevermind she had a lot of games obviously. And no- it wasn't a championship game or anything unlike a normal activity. That's just one of MANY examples that made me go... 🤔hmm??? I recognize it now as a codependency that probably (at least in part) developed after his divorce from their mother - but usually that tendency is there already. I think these divorced parents have a hard time with a guilt of the marriage breaking up so they go overboard trying to make up for it. While I understand they want their children to feel loved, I told him they need to understand the world does not revolve around them - not to the detriment of more important priorities- (or what SHOULD be a priority). Moderation and a happy medium was not his strong suit, and a cornerstone in codependency theory - everyone's needs - or certain people's needs- over others or self. Not too mention the defensiveness when he was challenged or felt judged, and zero self-awareness about any of it. He even yelled at his sister who was upset he wasn't at the hospital, I heard it.
    Without bothering more with that story, the point is that yes - something that is a great quality (like being a devoted parent) can turn into an unattractive quality. In his case, his children were his ONLY interest and reason for living. Why someone like him bothered to date me (or anyone else) I'll never understand except he said over and over he wanted a romantic partner yet his actions said otherwise. As Matthew stated, if you're not well-rounded, you're boring. And as my story points out, it can even be an obsessive focus on something leaning into an unhealthy attachment issue. Yeah...not so attractive anymore.

      I suspected my husband always texting a lady on his phone , We’ve been married for 18 years, we’ve both been happy together until recently when he switched side and I found out he has been cheating .I explained my story to a colleague at work then she introduced me to this genuine hacker, Darkwebprohacker who gave me access to his phone , I had complete access to his phone right on my own device and I could see all his activities for the past 2 years and also have access to new notifications, his text messages, Facebook messages,location, call logs, and I found out my husband was also flirting on dating sites..I love my husband a lot and I still don’t understand why he betrayed me, I have been a good hardworking wife and never for once cheated on him. I tracked him down and found out he was always going to sleep in another woman’s house with me thinking my husband is always at work for night shift. You can contact this great hacker who helped me found out the truth about my husband at darkwebprohack(at)gmail com or Whats app +19087998357 or text and call them directly on the same number.They helped me get access into his phone without even touching his phone.I have enough evidence against my husband and I am thinking of Filing for divorce.I want advice if I should give him another chance or let go ? We have 2 kids together
      it's a painful feeling but I believe things happen in life it comes as it goes, as it says what doesn't kills makes you stronger.

    One trait is not enough. It’s the unique pairings that continuously attract people. Thank you Matthew!

  • @Alpaca.....
    @Alpaca..... Před 3 lety +2

    Unique pairings sounds really positive and I've just realised that as a mum parenting alone I do not prioritise enough time in the day to focus on myself, so some strengths I had which were my unique pairings such as 'fitness funtime' or 'dancing feelgood' literally don't happen.
    What do you recommend for mothers who are literally focusing about 60 percent of time on their children's lives; school runs, packed lunches, teaching, inspiring, growing, friendships and basics, life tools.
    In short, a mother without a fellow parent is literally having to give up on at least a couple of unique pairings in order to function because there is nobody in UK society to pick up the slack if a mum decides to focus on herself.
    I was in a relationship with a lovely guy, we found life even more difficult trying to manage his two children as well as my two...so that eventually broke us for many reasons to do with our inability to be our unique selves. Our unique selves had to be second to being chefs, managers and cleaners for 4 kids which took up literally the entire weekend and exhausted us! By Monday I'd be sat alone after school drop off thinking omg I'm just too shattered to focus on anything for myself right now!
    So I wait patiently for them to grow up 🤣🤓😳 I mean none of your insights yet mention parenting or break ups during parenting, or the affects to the individual who is left parenting as their isolated responsibility; financially and mentally physically emotionally and spiritually.
    I cope but I'm definitely not reaching my original unique experience levels. It's like I landed in the midst of an unmade puzzle and only i can solve it.
    I have someone spe ial I'd like to date but again, he has currently been thrown a shit storm and is having to focus on parenting over his own unique pairings.

    Divorce is high and people stay breaking up because people are not whole and look to relationships to fill voids. People should focus on cultivating their most healthy selves and then go out and find someone who has equally been doing that internal work. whole + whole = one unified whole.

    It’s a bit of variety yeah? I feel that I’m definitely often the one who got away bc I’ve got so many facets that you will find in no one else. I know when to lean in and when to pull away. It’s a tango, a total art. This is for both men and women. What I needed to hear from this that I didn’t have in my tool box is that I’m not entitled to that Hollywood perfect love. It doesn’t even exist and wouldn’t be healthy. I have attracted very toxic people bc I held this standard.
    I’m not owed some flawless connection right off the bat.
    I also need to be willing to let that person at least have some cards in the game before writing them off.
    Especially when I do it based on fears. Thank you for you work.

  • @Glad1atorbari
    @Glad1atorbari Před 3 lety +3

    If someone is calling you "boring" is because they are unhappy internally and cannot generate that happiness from whithin... so they try to find a "man" who is happy in order to extract that thing from the relationship and their partner thats why with time you became "boring" because at some point you got exhausted trying to be "more" for the other person standars while in reallity they had to be "more" for themselves. Happiness is personal responsibility - she didnt have a life outside of you - so its easy to blame you, and its not right for you Matthew to be so self-critical about it. Yes you maybe should have been more nurturing towards the relationship but in general I dont see how, you can fill fundamental pit in someone else. So what Im trying to say is if "as a woman" you dont have those quality's (passion advanterous etc) if you find yourself boring - the relationship will be a mirror for you - and you will blame the person for the same things you dislike about yourself... PEACE!

    Carl Jung once said that as a general rule a particularly beautiful woman is a terrible disappointment. That is because women pretend to be someone they’re not in order to gain the attention of men. At some point the makeup and heels come off and the best behavior is gone. You can pretend to be someone you’re not but at some point it will catch up with you. And since real relationships are based on trust, that relationship will be over.
    It’s vulnerable and humbling to be authentic with someone for the very reason that they may not want to be with you but honestly, it’s better to be alone than in a relationship where someone is in love with the fake façade you created instead of you.

    I completely agree with what you are saying Mr Matthew but the problem with that is in reality most men are too busy doing many other things that no way they will ever have the time to keep improving and adding more and more attributes to their dating skills or relationship skills . The other problem with what you are saying you might have two attractive attributes that could possibly attracts only certain types of women who are looking for those attributes . What I have learned through life experiences is that you you attributes and qualities are too good and looks to perfect to women they have a hard times trusting you. Because women in nature always questions everything , the first question will be I don't understand why a man like you with such amazing attributes is single or is dating me , how were you not able to keep your ex and so on.

    I am finding that my confidence can be affected by the apparent "mountain" that I am told to climb as a man, that constant and daily "What will I do better today than yesterday to keep this relationship alive as it's all down to the man to keep this going" mentality, if I am right.
    I wouldn't have a relationship where I would need to keep looking over my shoulder where I could "slip up" at any moment with the slightest detail "missed" and then she's gone, just because.
    In amongst this, surely the couple will be reasonably content and happy with what they have together without the need for daily "I want to keep him/her" games?
