    Really enjoying reading all your comments this Sunday everyone. I’m curious, now that you’ve watched the video, what is an excuse someone gave you at some point about why they couldn’t give more to the relationship, that you started co-opting and using when talking to friends and family to justify why things were the way they were between the two of you? What logic did you start parroting that wasn’t actually authentically YOU, but you buying into someone else’s logic at the time? Leave me a comment and let me know.

      "It's just the wrong time" not sure if someone actually used that... But I've started describing a lot of past relationships that way. Genuinely, there's only one I'd characterize as that- i was stressed out from my phd program and was absolutely terrible to be with, and I don't blame him for wanting out 🤷🏻‍♀️. He did support me (emotionally) through some heavy going, and I'll always be grateful. (Ofc he took his new wife on honeymoon to the place I'd wanted to go, so I'm not that enamored of him anymore 😂 - but we did have very much in common wrt to taste in travel, tv, etc). Oh well 🤷🏻‍♀️

      Yes. Sometimes the connection isn't that strong and you let it go and no harm, no foul. But other times, you know you like each other alot and he's making excuses, so saying something is worth it because maybe, if he knew how you feel, he'd make more time. I think that's giving him and the situation the benefit of the doubt. He may not do anything about it, but at least you can walk away with no regrets that if you had done or said something, things may have been different.

      Yes, I agree that people would make time for each other. Years ago, it didn't seem like guys acted hot and cold in my dating world. Nowadays people seem to be more greedy, more superficial, want instant gratification (especially if they don't like their lives), and social media seems to have influenced this kind of behavior. People just seemed a little bit happier (and I think more trusting) before Facebook was invented. My ex had jealousy issues and behaved like our relationship was just a game. He became very possessive and controlling. So I guess you could say that he was hot and cold in his own way. He would be so happy and loving towards me, and then cold and emotionally abusive the next day. I don't even know if I will be ready for a relationship again.

    Life is too fucking short to play dumb cat & mouse games with guys. I've dealt with guys like this who is unsure about me or about what he wants in general. Went for 2-3 great dates with future talk and all that shit but in the end he gets cold feet since it gets too real then decide to stay casual/friends with me because he's unsure if he's ready for serious relationship. I decided to moved on and now I'm in amazing relationship but this past dude still try to show up begging for me to come back / date him & gave him another chance. Told him that he had his chance and he blew it himself. I'm glad it happened because I'm happier than ever with my current relationship :) never stay with someone who isnt sure about being with you.

    I think thats great advice.

Much easier to move on after that without wondering ‘what if’ because you said what you wanted to say.

They are scared of a strong person, stronger than them. Last time I dated guy he throw me into situationship because of his insecurities and I couldn't handle anymore, so I just blame him straight to his face, how dirty it was to say and act like interested and after he caught my attention just throwing like that bullshit.

    A very powerful video Matthew. Thank you!

Your videos have helped me much to express myself sincerely and openly. And oh my God, it gives me so much strength and confidence. Saying what you feel is such a force to reckon with! And you are so right that it makes us more human. Thanks a lot!

    I was begging last year because he dumped me and blocked my number. He unblocked me on 9/27/2021. And he showed up at my new gym on 12/14/2021 and he started to chase me again. He was like “hey how are you? Can I work out here with you? I said “hey it’s good to see you, I’ll talk to you later”, and I never went back to that gym. So recently back in 8/4/2022.. he showed up at my new gym again and I acted cold to him. He regret losing me 😂…

    It actually makes me realize that sometimes when using such messages, I was gaslighted into thinking that my message was too much but seeing such a message from you makes me realize that I drew the wrong conclusion. There was nothing wrong with the message, all I had to do was to realize that the person I sent it to was not someone I was compatible with.

  • @btdtpro
    @btdtpro Рік тому +89

    I feel like a keyword in this is "deepen" a relationship. Deepen could mean a lot of things, but I bet the translation is, "get more commitment or buy-in from the other person."
    I could maybe even be put,
    "I like the feelings this guy has brought to my life. The feelings of excitement for what could be. The feeling of being desired, of romance, of being sought after, of my positive traits being recognized. In fact I've already formed a bit of an addiction to these feelings, and this makes me worry about losing access to this drug. How do I get the supply to sign an exclusivity contract? When he's doesn't seem to be trying to sign one with me"
    If you want to deepen any other relationships in your life, family relationships. co-workers, friends, etc, no one thinks of exclusivity commitment. They think of having deeper, more honest, and personal conversations, or sharing experiences, trying each other's hobbies, etc.
    I've had several relationships where I noticed pretty early on, the women were really pushing for commitment. I have no problem with commitment, but my focus is always, what I would consider the truer meaning of deepening a relationship, actually getting to know each other.
    I know Matthew has to keep the solution kind of nonspecific, so many people might be able to use it, but for me, the solution kind of feels inorganic. To me the issue wouldn't be her just not hearing from him, but him taking a long time to reply, since it would be weird if she was disappointed not to hear from him, if he was the last one to text. So what did she text him that he hadn't replied to?
    Ideally if they want this to go somewhere and have been texting for a month and a half, they're talking about deeper interests than just wondering what happened that weekend. Is he working on a project for work? Is he stressed or excited about it? What is happening with him and his family relationships, friendship relationships, hobbies, etc.
    With one woman I dated, who I really got along well with, at any given point we had at least two text conversations going on at the same time between us, because we had so many topics of interest between us. We'd be talking about work, books and shows, articles we'd read, things happening with us and our friends, our ideas and goals, all shooting back and forth. We never had to wonder about deepening the relationship, we just were. So to me it's less about how to hear from someone more, but instead more about why the topics of conversation aren't causing engaged responses. Letting someone know you're disappointed they didn't do something, might make them do it more, but my preferred way is to increase their excitement to do it.
    It's almost like sex.
    Let's say you text a guy you'd been dating for a while and have had sex with, and say, "Loved our time together this weekend", and he replies, "Me too, a little disappointed we didn't have sex though". Does learning you disappointed him, arouse a desire for sex with him? or does it kind of turn you off? I mean, there's either a reason you didn't have sex, like you'd had a fight or something, or him wanting to have sex that weekend was news to you, in which you're thinking, "well you could have given me a snuggle or kissed me on the neck or something. Something to show me what you wanted while exciting me to match your state of desire." Conversation is the same. "Hey, how was your weekend?" reply, "I had an amazing weekend! I'm excited to hear from you, I've been dying to know how (the big pitch), (your hiking trip), (the talk with your dad), went.
    Side note, if after he tells you how X thing went, he doesn't then ask you something, "but tell me what happened in your amazing weekend", or follow up on some previous conversation point from earlier texts.. or both; then dump his poor conversation skills have’n ass. If you have to carry the conversation alone, guess how much help you'll be getting from him if you're ever carrying his baby.

I love hearing content in many different facets because it helps reiterate standards and allows that vulnerability to come through early on so that time isn’t wasted. You constantly reaffirm to establish that we have a great time and a great life apart from the relationship we are starting or are currently in. This allows established ways we can be bold which prevents sooo much time being wasted. Feel more high value in the last two years than Im my whole life. Thank you!

    Thank you for this video, Matthew. Being vulnerable takes courage--the courage to risk being hurt again and again. But, I do believe that without a risk, there is no reward. Vulnerability creates the opportunity for great victory in relationships--for something real to be cultivated. This video really validated a recent experience I had. I remembered your advice about putting myself out there, and even though the relationship didn't end up where I wanted it to go, I am proud of myself for owning my needs and "keeping my side of the street clean." Would eventually love to see more content from you on relationship advice that moves past the initial stages. Thanks for all you do.

    Happened to me recently. It got me confused, the first week we were okay. Miles and 7hours apart but we managed to talk simultaneously. A week later he became busy but would still message from time to time. Then on the 3rd week, he suddenly stopped.
    I'm not sure if I was vulnerable enough to trust him too soon and let go of my guard. It does hurt me but I think it's a two way street to work things out. I was actually willing to bend things but it just doesn't sit well with me that he can't give me a minute of his day, and the irony of it all is I'm a doctor for pete's sake 😅 I should be the one who's too busy 🤣🤣🤣 so yes it hurts but I have to move on 🤓

    Matthew, I appreciate your advice and I think it's great but I am the sort of person who will put effort into a relationship or into getting to know someone. I
    f I am not getting the same kind of energy back, if I am not getting the same kind of enthusiasm, open communication or effort from the person who I am interested in, then I will get bored, annoyed or pissed off real quick.
    I am not the sort of person who will sit around and wait to hear back from them or play texting or dating games.
    I am a busy individual and I like myself enough and in fact I love myself enough to know that if a guy is a lazy texter, a lazy individual or simply isnt interested, I move on very quickly.
    Life is too great for me to worry about wether he wants me or not.
    I have high self esteem and if a man who I am interested in playing games, has past traumas, isn't asking me out regularly, makes me feel alone or is simply a player; I forget he exists. I am not into men who cant step up.
    There is the door. GOODBYE!

    I don't stop living my life because of this relationship.
    If he makes a demand or negative remark I turn his statement right back at him.
    If he responds like a child I ask him how old he is; that I don't want a relationship with a child or anyone who can't stand on there own two feet.
    I will get the silent treatment sometimes but I don't react to it. I either trust him or I don't. So whatever he wants to do with his anger is up to him. It's his, he owns it.
