Great video. My relationship of five years ended a month ago when the love of my life decided to move on. I loved her deeply, and I can't stop thinking about her and the memories we created together. I've done everything I can to try to bring her back, but nothing has worked. I'm feeling frustrated and can't imagine my life with anyone else. I've tried to push the thoughts away, but they keep coming back. I’m not sure why I'm sharing this here, but I really miss her and wish I could have her back.
The fact that I thought she was about to get super vulnerable and she segwayed into an ad is just crazy.
I appreciate Audrey's take when she says 'you have my attention for and my interest for now but if you start to show me that this attention is misplaced then I will take it away.' Its not about knowing your worth if things no longer serve you. No games being played and don't chase them either or try to get a reaction . It's about striking that balance and knowing when to move on if the situation no longer presents itself as something you want to continue to invest in. Thank you very much.
Ok so why people think that silence is the right answers to someone? i hate it when someone i like doesn't reply, instead of being honest and say the truth. they just don't say anything.
When you express genuine interest toward someone who consistently shows disinterest either through communication or body language it often reveals a dynamic rooted not in mutual connection, but in a desire for validation. Individuals who seek attention without reciprocating it may be compensating for a lack of self-worth. In doing so, they inadvertently devalue not only the other person’s time and emotional investment but also their dignity as a human being.
Very wise way of navigating this: ”you have my interest… for now”
I mean, reality is, if they genuinely see you that won't matter. Secure people will love it if you show interest, not pull away.
I feel like I've done the right thing after listening to this. I showed my interest, twice,..and he pushed me away. I don't see the point in going in for a third attempt. Yeah, you're right this doesn't interest me any more. Walk away, move on.
playing hard to get = Playing games = The person will loose.
Hi Matthew. I'm one of your subscribers and I think there's a group of people whose dating needs you may have not been addressing, and those are the people above 50, 60 and perhaps even 70 years old. Sadly, There is very high trend of grey divorces the past 15 years and navigating dating after being with one person for decades have unique needs and styles which need addressing. I think this can be your next book and will be a bestseller. Think BabyBoomers who need dating helps!These men and women may have a lot of wealth or at least financially stable, kids, and other factors which may complicate dating or seeking a long term partner at this stage in life. Will you please talk to this age group as well? Thank you very much for considering.
Starting at 8:00 mark, she says/explains all that perfectly. She’s an excellent role model for women. I understand that’s how she handled Matthew when he started to flake. She proved herself to be different from every other woman out there
Amazing video. Can we highlight the part where Audrey says, "Look inward and see if...maybe I'M also interested when people are hot and cold, and so I believe that's why other people would be interested. And I don't believe that an authentic, mutual connection doesn't ever flourish into a real relationship"? Wow, wow, WOW!!! That's it. That can be a whole video on its own! I so needed to hear that and said in that exact way. I'd love to see a video more specifically on that.
I think we are decoding the hard-to-get thing wrong. That person just isn't interested in you. That person that all of a sudden is slow texting and giving low energy vibes after a date, they aren't interested. Male or female. All relationships I had with a woman they gave clear signals and reciprocated energy. Nothing ever happened with the low energy low effort woman. Not a single time in 45 yrs.
If you play hard to get, you end up being hard to want.
7:25 onwards - absolute gold. Needed to hear that. Wow. Thanks ☺️
Show interest they run away Dont show interest gets chased Show interest then runs away Play hard to get takes to long nothing ever happens just happy to look at each other Dating games no fun and complicated Have mutual energy then get ghosted Waiting for the one all over again definitely draining 😢
I'm not asking you to change your content for me (😂) but I realized after being 3.5 months into a stable relationship, these videos are less applicable to me...and it made me realize that you speak mostly to early dating--dates 1, 2, 3 etc, picking the most compatible person, not chasing etc--rather than how do you settle down and get along once you meet an amazing person. Maybe those later-dating skills are supposed to be intuitive, but they're not for me (and a lot of people prob)...so if you ever feel like shifting topics into how to make long-term relationships flourish, just know you'll have one eager listener and prob many others ❤ (who have grown up with your content and now moved to the next stage!)
Sigh... you show too much interest the guy will pull away. That sux. You start playing games, which is not a good thing. I mean, why play games to begin with. I mean, you might as well leave him alone.
Gorgeous Audrey !
