At the end of the day, I now have the freedom of consistently checking up on myself because I love me, a human that is mine. If i practice this everyday, then i could at least carry myself through any kind of situation, hard or good times. I get to be strong all the time while also recognising, acknowledging and accepting the emotions i feel (emotional buttons) and still live. Thank you Matthew Hussey!

My experience being open and vulnerable with a woman led to them putting that knowledge in their pocket to be used against me when it suited them. Of course not all women are like that, but there are plenty that are. Some will even demand to know your vulnerabilities, not to be closer or bond, but because they want that ammunition and they will emotionally blackmail you to get it.

If you confess things you're not proud of, women will absolutely use it against you and most likely will use it as justification to dump you too. Sad but true

@dokilar1 Месяц назад

Im 40, and when my first marriage was falling apart, I asked my grandpa how he was able to stay married to grandma so long, and his answer was problematic, but I now think is 100% true. Relationships and love are different between generations. Todays society and generations are (in my opinion) less inclined to thrive or even survive in difficult situations. My grandpa said he went through countless problems in his relationship, but him and my grandma were committed to the sanctity or marriage and the idea of love. When things get tough and you know that you can just throw in the towel, avoid pain and suffering while simultaneously engaging with someone else in a completely different relationship it doesnt inspire you to put in any real effort. People don't and are being raised to avoid discomfort, and when they face adversity, they do the easiest thing, and oftentimes, that involved leaving their partner.

@dolphin7860 Месяц назад

I have been blessed enough to meet and date women who were very appreciative of me showing vulnerability. In my experience, it actually increases connection. That said, it is NOT something I would show in the courting/dating portion of the relationship and it MUST be seen as a nice surprise - meaning she should already have many experiences with you being a strong person and this is rare softer side. Cry too much and you’ll get left lol

@MyFriendsKitchen Месяц назад

I've been mulling over what @James Smith said "Do people love you for who you are or for what you do?” and I got myself stuck in a loop. It's still transactional if someone likes you because you're funny and kind, but not wanting anything thing to do with you if you're going through a tough time. Then I was thinking about Robert Green saying if someone does something to you once they'll do it again. It's hard to know if it's worth pulling someone up on their bad behaviour, if it's a constant thing then you probably should let them go, especially if it's the same bad behaviour. Not forgetting you need to question your own behaviour and if you're open to change for the better. I can see why people put up with bad behaviour, the thought of being alone is too much for them.

@brianmeen2158 Месяц назад

@CJB333 Месяц назад

What worked great in one relationship for me was an open door to communication no matter how stupid it may seem to the one bringing it forward. Like even if one felt jealous and knew it was dumb or petty, it was encouraged to bring it up and just say hey i know it's dumb but i felt off with that. It got to any potential long running issue by bringing it out immediately and talking about it when it's small and trivial. Drinking killed the rest of it but a bad substance issue is a tough one to survive

I think it is actually men who have it harder in dating and love. I am no Brad Pitt but Im an intelligent and decent looking guy but the majority of times when Im out and about, I just feel completely invisible and an imposter whenever I see women I want to talk to. My previous relationships were as a result of putting myself out there and approaching women for months at a tkme before my confidence got to the point where I didnt have the same nerves and I was able to charismatically express myself to the women I eventually dated. Men are suffering from unprecedented levels of loneliness and dating apps have made things 100 times worse.

@gregm762 Месяц назад

At 37:20 I felt like he was essentially describing my issue. Love, if you can find it and most won’t, is truly amazing, but dating is absolutely excruciating. Like him, I’m a very private person and deeply introverted. The idea that I’m going to have meaningful conversation with strangers or worse, open some app and click on the picture of someone I don’t know from Adam is deeply unappealing. Let’s not even talk about the flaking, ghosting, lying, and other horrible behaviors people engage in when “dating.” I got a taste of the dating world when I was much younger and knew it wasn’t for me. If we could just skip over all of the B.S. and find true love… I think many will have to make peace with living the single life like I did.

@FAD_SANMITH 23 дня назад

Yes, it is. These days, it feels like it’s almost impossible. Most people just want the good part of a relationship, and don’t accept the bad. Most people don’t know the definition of “true love”, which is to put that love first, before any others-not just in the good times. It’s easy to love someone when it’s all light and breezy, and the worst thing that happens is that you might help them move or bring them chicken soup when they catch a cold. That’s not really love, that’s just being a decent human being. True love is what I witnessed between my mother and father. My father became paralyzed, and my mother took care of him for the last six years of his life, and made him the sole focus of her existence. His paralysis caused chronic health conditions, from which he eventually perished. True love was seeing my mother tearfully sign off on a “DNR” notification with shaking hands, because she knew that my father wouldn’t want to live like that, hooked up to machines. True love like that is so rare, you may only hear about it through the grapevine. Ask the person who says they love you if they will take care of you when you’re in a wheelchair. Ask them if they could make your end of life decisions. (Note: if they don’t marry you, that’s a big sign that they do not want this responsibility.) That’s where the rubber meets the road. Everything else consists of just filler relationships, and they don’t mean anything.

@MC-ze8wj Месяц назад

Another thing that's sad about not settling down young isn't just the possibility of ending up alone but it's the loss of getting to have all your youth with your spouse. A lot is said about how fun it is to have your youth for yourself; you get to try new things and relationships and party unrestricted, perhaps travel the world without being beholden to anyone else. Getting to meet your spouse young however lets you grow together so strong. You're still pliable and so you grow together in your beliefs even more than what brought you together. All the shared experiences, and the lack of trauma from bad previous relationships. Of course people talk about the bonding that happens between first partners that is diminished with each following one but I think there is even more than that to it. Personally, I met my husband at 18 (we're 33 this year) and I feel like I've grown up with him, like he is a part of me, and I wouldn't trade the experience of getting to have grown with him and had all our youth together for all the fun party/ world travel experiences or carefree college years in the world.

What I learned today was the self-love part, cuz I also never resonated with the idea of self-love. It was discriminatory to the rest of people, BUT, I still think it needs more...more exploration. Like, Matthew did bring it closer; in terms that how self-destructive our approach is, to ourselves, and we need to cultivate a 1-on-1 relationship with our humans, and try to do the best with them, more like a parent does for their child, but I think it still needs further exploration.

Why does finding love require writing down your "identity matrix"? Supposedly the podcast is about the question "Why is Love So Hard to Find in the Modern World?", but the two people on the show talked themselves into giving evidence for the opposite: more people than ever are doing highly enlightened things like understanding the layers of their identity, and conversely basically no one in our parents generation did that. I think the viewers should be pushing back more with episodes like these.

I know this isn't the majority opinion, but Dating/Relationship Podcasts like this are so frustrating and I'm not sure I can finish it. There was one line that I found relatable ("Struggling to find love, disappointed, and asking myself 'why am I struggling? Why are people around me content and seem to glide through?'"). This podcast was frustrating to me because 1) the guest wants to frame the subject around deep and psychological issues and 2) he doesn't actually want to open up after vaguely gesturing to them. On the first part, the reasons why the viewer isn't finding love probably are NOT that deep and psychological... it's probably a question they shouldn't dwell on excessively, and instead the useful thing to dwell on finding a sense of ease and peace. On the second part, there were so many times where the guest performs as if he is opening up WITHOUT actually providing any details for us to remember or relate to. Examples: opening up about an insecurity with Audrey, opening up about an insecurity with a previous girlfriend, when he said "being incapable of sitting with his feelings" in his 20s, and "not sorting his own stuff first". What happened in all these things? Are these really relevant to why the viewer can't find love? What were the situations, the feelings, the details? No elaboration given, nor does he see that as the point. How am I suppose to relate to anything they are saying? I don't relate, I also don't think it is relevant to me, and I don't think I can finish.

This is the best and most relatable modern wisdom episode yet, and not just because Matthew had a year of ringing in his ears. But how did he get rid of the ringing??? Asking for a friend.

@LLL-fr3ow Месяц назад

I made the mistake of sharing something I was insecure about with my ex I was with for 9 years. She told me she needed me to be more vulnerable than when I was she left 😂. I then learn women do not like negative vulnerability( they don't want to see your weakness). I've opted out of romantic relationships all together. Being loved for who you really are is not a privilege men get, we are only loved for what we can provide. We have to be bulletproof and unshakable and that's not even possible, at least not for me.

Not all women, the man I loved was vulnerable with me, he cried once or twice over something and I only conforted him as I would do with any loved one of mine. I didn't left him for that reason, in fact he left me because he wanted to fuck around

As a somewhat emotional guy, I actually hate the concept creep of "trauma." There's good in developing an understanding of your upbringing, insecurities, and emotional response patterns... but connotatively equating your lack of confidence from getting made fun of by peers at 8 years old to severe abuse, having your broken femur sticking out of your thigh and nearly bleeding out, or seeing your brother in arms blown to pieces in front of you by an IED is a mistake. You're diluting the word and encouraging an endless recursion of psychological navel-gazing by suggesting "trauma" in modern parlance is anywhere near as debilitating as such experiences. Also think - even if you do feel deeply - aspiring to a level of stoicism and confidence that allows others to rely on you is admirable, and the over-focus on mental health in current times is an over-correction. Sometimes you should upbraid yourself. Have standards to both move toward and away from.

@brianmeen2158 Месяц назад

Great point! I have to admit that in current day there is a bit of fixation on trauma and some bathe too much in it. I think long term therapy has actually some people more than it’s helped

Listening to this conversation I feel like IFS therapy/modality would be very beneficial for EVERYONE to understand the model presented in IFS...that you have different parts that can be contradictory for one...and secondly, it gives an excellent understanding of things so that you can be compassionate with yourself firstoff, as well as compassionate with others... Exiles, protectors/managers and firefighters with Self capital S...the model makes so much sense when you understand it...if Dick Schwartz hasn't been on the show I would hightly suggest.

I think it's time I finally accept the fact that after a lot of minutes watching dating advice videos on the internet, I'm not really the audience for this. On another level, I find it really insulting that these attractive men and women can openly talk about their "insecurities" when they have a significnantly easier time in the dating market.

@nalianalianalia Месяц назад

Yep. More on this: Matthew's wife Audrey about which he speaks so much looks like a super Instagram model, but obviously he stayed silent on *that* point and preferred to speak about her being able to gear him on with her vulnerabilities and understanding. Right. These two attractive people (Chris and Matthew) carry on whole such message about focusing on authenticity, not rejecting people who love us and respect is etc. not because we should (and can) do so but because they want us to dream on. Because that's how they make money on their podcasts.

In your 20’s you’re drunk with freedom in your 30’s you experience possibilities In your 40’s you think you know better In your 50’s you are now wise enough to know you know nothing so you forgive others and treat yourself better. Good self talk helps less self criticism is the key. Things start coming your way. It gets better lads.

@hopefull2070 Месяц назад

It's been excruciating looking externally for love. I've been through many painful experiences to finally recognize that ultimately love grows and flourishes from within. I was emotionally and physically neglected as a child, so I've really struggled in my adult years to not seek, need, even expect, to be understood, cared for and loved. I'm now in midlife and have finally grew to accept that love, compassion, empathy is cultivated from within and shared externally, rather than the other way around. It's just a matter of finding someone who resonates with the love i have to offer. To be single and peaceful, to be fully accepting of oneself is a great indicator that i am now ready to share myself with another. I think understanding our attachment styles and working through that with one another in compromise and compassion really helps with mutual balance and a deepening of each others realities.

I'm in the same position. Constantly being told that I'm a catch. Ironically the same woman that say that are the same ones that won't date me because I "didn't have the "hot chemistry"", "didn't generate spark ", " don't have the right look" etc. It drove me up the wall for the longest time and even interviewed a PUA for lessons, but he turned out to be a douche during the interview process. I'm coming to terms that God gave me the "ick" to compensate for the other gifts that he gave me.

The type of love Matthew describes in connection to self-love, is the same type of love God has for us. He even mentioned that the inspiration came from parental love. Like it was taken straight out of the bible; and I like it. Funny how he did not see it.
