I post new love life advice for you every weekend.

It’s Halloween time, and for the occasion, in today’s video I talk about what might be the most insidious form of ghosting.
If someone ghosts you after a couple of tepid dates (which doesn’t feel good, don’t get me wrong) you can usually assume they just weren’t feeling the chemistry . . .
But what does it mean when someone pulls away after saying they want to be exclusive, or after texting constantly and telling you they want to see you all the time?
In this brand-new video, I give you three reasons why someone might do this, what you should do when it happens, and the strange reason why they may choose to ghost but leave the door open. You can’t miss this topic!

Ignoring or acting indifferent is the best thing you can do. Literally act like you didn’t notice his absence. If he asks you out again, simply say thanks for asking, but I’m really busy. Or don’t respond to his texts or calls at all. Men hate indifference, it makes them question themselves. Never respond with anger or genuine emotion. These men are immature and unworthy of honest conversation. Stop giving away your power. Don’t waste another minute of your valuable time, and don’t grant these guys access to your emotions. What these men need is a reminder that they’re not that special, not that great in bed, and not particularly rememberable. Move on. I don’t care if you’re 20 or 80, men are everywhere. Let those time wasters go.

Of course, there are good reasons as to why that's the case, but women who aren't his mother don't deserve to be punished for her mistakes when he was a child.

Whewww I totally believe this. This past spring/summer I encountered the most flattering love bomber I’ve ever met. I really thought he was the one. Part of me felt like his compliments were a bit much but I was filled in his admiration because I’m still learning to love myself. Well I fell for it and then he dropped me like a bad habit. Now he’s in a “loving” relationship with someone else. Which means he was never invested in what we had because he was clearly talking to her at the same time. Even though he said he was exclusively talking to me. It’s crazy because I thought we had something. It was so hurtful. I never want to go through that again.

@RosemaryBabyZVllX Год назад
Please remember that ghosting is very loud communication - it's silent but what is communicated is "no" , "I'm not interested", " I don't want to continue". These things are difficult to spell out but the silence means exactly that. Take it as a communication, instead of " not communication". At this point you have to say to yourself : "I heard that clearly and loudly that you are not interested. Well, it's time for me to say as well that I'm not interested neither. Why would I be interested in someone who is not interested in me????" " If and when they decide comeback, just say no. Because if you're saying yes, he will leave you again. Silence for me means loud no, means he has no respect for me or desire, and it means it's my turn to say no to him, as well. Girls, take care of your heart. If it breaks many times, you will end up depressed, cynical, old lady. Please be happy and take care of yourself, there are so many good men, you will find someone for yourself who will respect you. .

I think we are only hitting the surface. We need to be frank and really call this out. A lot of men have emotional issues and don’t know how to be relational. It’s an ego boost and toxic tactic they employ because of their own personal traumas, lack of self love, and disregard for others. It’s more than them being immature, it’s a complete lack of empathy and emotional intelligence. These men will never be good partners, even if you get with them, prepare to be taken advantage of, gaslit, and emotionally neglected. They refuse to heal their emotional wounding then go off and bleed all over everyone else. We really need to start leaving reviews on people like that black mirror episode and calling out this toxic behavior.

This is so spot-on, Matthew. It happened to me recently where someone came on really strong and idealised me, only to then play hot and cold/push-pull as soon as I reciprocated. I called them out immediately, politely but clearly and stated the kind behaviour (consistency, reliability) that I was looking for. They "improved" for a bit, then went back to playing games, then ghosted, while still throwing breadcrumbs ("likes") on social media. I called them out one last time and asked them for a personal talk and to explain their behaviour. Unsurprisingly, the person went ghost again yet continued to "like" my social media. I blocked them on all channels. It's completely unacceptable behaviour and utterly disrespectful and selfish. I don't think such people are actually happy in their lives...but that is theirs to carry.

The unfortunate reality of it is that it's the path of least resistance, and that's the path most people tend to choose. Technology has made it easy to ignore people, and this has spread into the IRL realm. Confrontation is difficult and unpleasant, so if you can just ignore someone and hope they get the hint...why not? It's a crappy thing to do, but often the person ghosting isn't trying to be mean. In fact, in a twisted way, they don't WANT to hurt you and they think by ghosting you you'll forget about them like they forgot about you. It's cowardly and selfish, and unfortunately more common all the time.

I am happily married now, but back when I was single, I got ghosted sometimes. It was no big deal to me. I just understood right away that the guy was not interested and I quickly moved on. I actually appreciated that he did not feel the need to "explain" the reasons why he was not interested. Because that can be very hurtful. They are avoiding confrontation, because they don't want to tell you why they don't want you as they know that you will be insulted and hurt. I never needed or wanted to know the reasons "why". I only needed to know that they were not interested and that was enough. If you go out on a date with a guy and then afterwards, three days passes by and you don't hear from him. It's over. Just move on and don't look back. There will be many other guys out there for you to date.

Good that you can accept this and move on. I had a crush on someone who never initiate contact and barely responded my messages and I struggle to get over this. I shared a lot of my vulnerabilities with him and loved spending time with him. for me it would be easier to have a reason for example that he already has a lot of friends or that he is in a relationship. But he just let my messages unanswered and I am left thinking that I am not enough - not enough good looking, intelligent or that I came on to strong (which would be important to know). I really wish that both women and men would have rhis difficult conversations and tell me carefully that they have a girlfriend or that they are looking for friendships that match more their energy. Those are no reasons that I take personally. I also don’t want to just end friendships without telling people for example that I am tired to have to wait for months before they also reach out.

@@Nina-ur3ld I really get what you are saying here, however, sometimes there are reasons that they know will hurt you if they tell you what they are. It could be something as simple as they think you have bad breath. They think you are a bad kisser. You have a chipped tooth that they noticed. You have bad posture. They don't like your jokes. They don't think you are intelligent enough. It could be just about anything. They already know that the reason they give is something that would make you feel insulted or embarrassed and so they choose not to tell you to avoid hurting your feelings. In this case, as I said, I am grateful that they chose to spare my feelings. Or yes, it can even be that they don't feel attracted enough to you. I never wanted a guy to have to tell me that I was not pretty enough to turn him on or be his girlfriend. That is a punch in the gut. Better to keep the reason to himself.

A few dates is whatever. People ghosts several months and years in. Some even do it at the first sign of conflict or leave before the others. It’s not as simple. It is absolutely disrespectful to to ghost no matter the reason. It takes a moment to say hey, blah blah blah and generalize the topic if need be to avoid being hurtful. I have had to do it myself with a guy I broke up with after dating for 9 months. He was nice just not for me…his vision was different than mine.

@@Regina.Clarke Hi Regina. Thanks for your reply. I actually was referring to just within a couple of dates, not an actual established relationship. Yet, I agree with you that no matter what it is disrespectful. Oh, yes, I absolutely know that it is low down, rotten and disrespectful. Yet it seems like so many people operate this way, that I just learned to not let it bother me. I can really understand how it bothers people in general though. It's just basic good manners and etiquette to give that person the heads up that you don't want to continue with them and yes you can give a generalized reason. Being ghosted always made my feelings vanish very fast, because of how weak and passive it is. A real man communicates. He takes responsibility. It shows strength of character. A true gentleman will treat a lady with regard to her inner feelings and sensitivities.

Moving to the city, university, career, and meeting people from all over with different values who are likely to move away, doesn’t make for a better life.

Blame women for the current dating climate. Decades ago, men publicly courted only one woman that was a virgin, and he had to be heavily vetted by her family to even get a chance. Nowadays women were the original ones to insist on having multiple options and giving themselves to the best guy in their mind and ghosting all the others. Guys have just simply adapted to the game. And guess what? This dating game will only get more cutthroat until women decide to be more traditional again.

Having been part of the sex, drugs and rock and roll era of the 60s and 70, and having been married 3 times , I was part of opening the door to the types of dating relationships I see today. I want to tell your community of women the advice I gave my own daughter. If you are looking for a relationship, Never sleep with, have sex with a man on a first date. The more attractive they are to you the more this advice is good. In order to have a long term relationship with someone you need more than a sex drive. I would say that you should date for a while before entering into intimacy. #1 Players are not willing to put 30 -60 days into a relationship without a payout. This eliminates the sleeze bags. #2 It allows you to know whether or not you actually like this person and have some sort of agreeable personality exchange.

I disagree. My current partner and I had sex on the first date and I've had sex on other first dates and because of my experience, here's what I think... ladies, if you feel like sleeping with them, FREAKIN GO FOR IT. If they're going to leave, they're GOING to leave, whether you have sex on the first date or the 10th. This message telling us to wait is sexist and outdated. The problem that comes up for woman though is they tend to attach outcomes to sexual encounters and THAT'S the thing you gotta let go of. The lady has ALL the control though, especially, in the beginning. Girl, if you want to wait, wait. If you don't, don't! The only rule is, there are no rules. FOCUS ON WHAT YOU WANT and if sex is one of those things, hunny, go get yours!

My inner voice sounds very enthusiastic, reassuring, and forgiving to my inner child. I still mess up, but it’s less and often a new level of conscience. I recently learned even some gentleman can be dogs if we allow them to see us as a cute toy. People read us to understand how we allow ourselves to be treated and they treat us as so. I will let a person know when I don’t like something or they will run the risk of loosing my presence in their life as I slowly pull away and create distance. This hurts the anxious inner child in me, but I’m protecting myself while have an open honest communication with the others. I know you can heal too because it all starts with you ❤️

He lived up to everything he said. The hard lesson I learned in life, no man earned you being excited in days. The most he should do is pique your interest. But enough to even stress about why he didn’t call? Nah. He hasn’t invested anything. He hasn’t had enough time to care. He barely knows you. The best thing is to approach it as a long trial period. And during the trial period you’re looking for words to become actions and actions to become consistent, that’s before even considering him as relationship material

This describes about 90% of the men I know. They're absolutely off the rails and trying to make sense of their madness drives me nuts! It's like they put our relationship in a race car and go 200 mph only to park us and abandon the car one lap away from the finish line, and sometimes they eventually come back and pretend they never left, and sometimes they don't come back at all. I finally realized I have the power. I set the pace. And any guy who wants privileges or benefits from me has to show up and step up and be consistent. And it's not being egoic or difficult on my end. It's giving a real man a fair challenge. That's the best compliment you can give a real man, is to be a fair challenge for him. I make sure that I set the terms clearly. I say, "I'd really like to be more intimate with you, I think you're very attractive, so I'm hoping you'll show me you're trustworthy. I'm ready to reward that when I sense it." I just started this so I've had mixed results with the last two dates I've been on. Both men responded very well! And I felt that they respected me and enjoyed the challenge. The first one hasn't called or texted me since our last date and I'm not chasing. But he did shift into a more thoughtful person and walked me to my door and kissed me very gentlemanly before he vanished. The second one slowed down his energy and has been more romantic! He's really shown up and it's impressing me so much! He's treating me so good! We'll see how it goes.

I used to think if a man ghosted me, it was an insult to me in some way. But, I've learned that sometimes it's actually respect because the guy realizes you need more than he's got to give and he respects you enough not to play around with you. So, he leaves...but he doesn't want to slam the gate because he thinks if he does improve his situation and gets his act together, if he comes back he'll try again. And be for real. So he doesn't want to say an official goodbye but he also can't be there for you right now...because he's ashamed of where he is in life. So, sometimes it's actually a compliment. Even though a sucky one. I'm working on myself right now. Self-reflection and self-improvement is very important for the relationship dynamic.

If you are ghosted by someone you love and\or are in love with while still having abandonment trauma/feelings of unworthiness. I have something that works. Use the triggers, sit with the feelings and heal the old wounds. When you feel okay, pour all your mental energy in self love. Detach from external validation, just you vs you. You validate you, you comfort you, you buy yourself flowers, you take yourself on nice dates, you do things you love that will fill you will genuine happiness. By the time you have reached this point, you have levelled up and will be strong enough to not only not want them in your life. They won’t be a vibrational match, so they can’t reach you. You’ll also be more aligned with yourself and people that are actually capable of loving you.❤

Why is ghosting even a thing? Who honestly thought that would be an acceptable way as an adult to handle any situation. This happened with my last relationship never seen it coming nor did I have any reason. He spoke about wanting kids, getting married, making sure we’re on the same page. I don’t believe in having conversations like that with anyone. I fell in love for the first time. We hit a point in our relationship where we both were scared to become vulnerable. Thought he felt the same so I decided to take the first step so he knew I wouldnt cheat or leave him. That should’ve been a red flag. I’ve heard everything at this point. First time being ghosted. Never had my heart shattered like that. Completely turned me off from dating. If someone thinks ghosting is an easy way out instead of having any respect at all to sit down like an adult to have a conversation, then that person should not be dating.

I waited to see if these people would want to invest time or energy into me. These two individuals had excuses for almost anything, so I stopped texting. Now im getting messages asking what they did wrong. Its simple really, if a guy is going to go out of the way to invest time and energy into you, be prepared to reciprocate.

I took this advice with a guy that has been coming back and being hot and cold for 6 YEARS. Once I unfollowed him on social platforms, the harassing messages and text messages that went unanswered became so frequent and obnoxious. When I responded with this level headed response, I think he was truly shocked but apologized. I feel so good having respected myself and setting a clear boundary.

If you can’t walk away from someone because of stirred feelings. Good thing they left. Love is having company not being addicted to their company. After one call and no response. Just keep doing what you were doing, but with out them. Like oooh what a tragedy. They gave you more free time to do thing you love. Ooh scary. 🤣🤣🤣

This is the best video! I have been looking for the answer to this question for the longest. No one really talks about the guy actually coming on strong, you having boundaries…not needy, none of that. He’s the one that actually brings up the topic of a relationship. And then boom he’s gone…

They all do only that little game of theirs to me. Whereas I’m careful and not interested in being used for sex or emotional labour. I got tired, burned out. How much do you have to tolerate, how much do you have to put effort in making them feel good, and it’s all pointless anyway, not returned. They can be mean but the moment you talk back lose “interest”. I almost stopped trying to invest my emotions and time into that. I’m mid twenties and there’s high risk of me dying an old maid and adopting. Maybe i’m just unlikeable.

I don’t think being passionate and intense in a certain moment is necessarily intentionally a lovebomb manipulation. Some people are just in the moment of lust. I’ve been on both ends of this. Then again I don’t ghost people.

This is actually what I needed to hear right now, thank you Matthew 😊. I communicated my standards to someone that came on strong and matched my consistency initially to then disappear for days avoiding making plans when we were supposed to be meeting up. It didn't feel organic to me, so I said if their plans changed it was honestly all good, but I'd rather know to reorganize my time. He then apologized and said he had been super busy and would reach out later on the day, so I was 'it's all good, I understand, sure thing, I'm happy to talk 😊', but he never did. So I was starting to doubt if I had jumped to conclusions too quickly or maybe come across as rude, too serious or sth. I found it difficult to do cause I really felt I had a genuine connection with this person and we were on the same page. Truth is if someone can't be consistent and I say 'I'm going to take a step back cause I feel the vibe on your side has shifted' and I don't find them putting a bit more of effort in but getting defensive instead, I kind of know everything I needed to know 🤷🏻‍♀️

That might be true up to certain extent, I'm a busy person myself, so only someone that hasn't anything going on will be always available. However, I do think that when we're genuinely into someone, we make sure they know we're interested and if we're about to get busy, we let them know, cause it's considerate. It's just what I do, but it's dangerous expecting our behaviour from others, cause we're all different. I don't think he did it intentionally, but I'm just not up for being left hanging and putting my plans on hold when in no world they'd be doing that if they were on my side.

I def want to communicate my standards in the early days, but it always comes across as confrontational, so not too sure if I'm actually finding the bliss point in communication ngl 😂. In texting we def lose the chance to put the tone there, but people tend to avoid phone calls like the plague. I feel there's a misconcept when it comes to communication, cause people tend to confuse communicating effectively the things that actually matter with chit-chat every day and keep each other updated on everything they're doing and that's not what communication means to me

Ladies. If you met the ghoster guy through online dating where he has many options, you're being ghosted whilst he love bombs new ghostees. This is the side effect of supply and demand with a superficial based dating system where the guy you want is also wanted by most women on the site. Instead, try to meet genuine men in real life through common interest events and take time to get to know them first. Build a deep connection that will last instead of chasing unavailable feelings of lust. TC x

This question is off-topic Matthew, but I thought I would put it here. Many of your videos deal with who pays for dinner, who makes the effort, etc. etc.. yet not once have I ever heard. You mention how often women cook for men (not that men never cook for women, but you must admit it’s much more common for a woman to cook for a man). An example would be a guy I dated off and on for a couple of years and broke up with recently. First of all, he makes fully twice as much money as I do. that said, for every one time he brought me out to a dinner, I would probably make at least two or three dinners in my home for him(I am a good, cook and enjoy cooking). So if I knew he was coming over for dinner on a Saturday night, I would probably take a few days to plan, grocery shop, and prep for that meal. I enjoyed this process. I would get top quality ingredients from farmers market and local butchers and really go all out to make something beautiful and delicious. Often, the amount I would spend in time and labour to make a beautiful meal far exceeded what it would cost to take someone out, but that’s besides the point. A couple of weeks ago we went away for a weekend together, and he got upset when I didn’t offer to pay for half of the dinner bill. We went back to the hotel and had a discussion about it, and he told me that he felt “taken for granted” because when we went out, he always paid for dinner. I listen to what he said and then retorted “how many times have I cooked for dinner for you? ” the look on his face. I could tell he had never even thought about the time and effort or expense I went through to do that for him. Now you could say that maybe this guy was just clueless, or just didn’t think of a woman cooking dinner for him as any sort of effort since he grew up with his mother cooking , but honestly, this is not the first person I’ve had this situation with. So, who do you think was actually taken for granted? Every time he paid for dinner I was thankful. I felt that taking me out to dinner was a gift to me, just as me making dinner for him was a gift. I would really appreciate it if you would address this in one of your videos Matthew because I’ve literally never heard anyone talk about this, and it happens all the time to many many women .

I was impulsive towards him, we have like 3 misunderstandings in a month. And I deserved the ghosting, and I won't chase him, or say sorry again and again cause it is really shameless of me. He didn't blocked me but unfriended, and I don't want us to communicate again, I just trusted my guts. It's hard to love when you also have trauma in the past, you look forward more to pain than of beauty, and that makes you are not good enough to anybody. Keeping busy helps.

When I got involved emotionally he run off and was cyberstalking me daily for 5 months whilst ignoring my msgs of having any conversation.He got blocked for another 5 months again with no contact from him.Now I unblocked him to see if he is gonna cyberstalk me still or he has moved on to someone else.Dating is so fucked up these days

He then had the nerve by trying to come back 11months later to see if I would love a repeat of our weekend. I was absolutely livid & I'm afraid I told him straight what I thought of him & where to shove his weekend away & finally where to go. I explained that I had moved on as I wasn't going to waste another single minute with a toxic bloke like him or waste precious time wondering what I had done wrong bc I hadn't done anything it was him that had lied & ruined things .

I'm dealing with someone like him, who relied on the fact that because our relationship was initially work-related, he could continue to rely on me because I'm naturally kind and a people pleaser. This week I finally came to the conclusion that it was enough; I was ready to move on. And we had the tough conversation; I definitely can see him in your description. When I told him that I had to get if what he was it was enough for me, he was shocked; he believed everything was fine. He still didn't get how much he hurt me because I genuinely thought he cared. I focused more on what he seemed to me than what he really was, ignoring any possible red flags. For the first time, I really said what I needed without worrying about letting him slide away.
