    Why Your Ex Definitely Isn’t “The One”

    enDecember 05, 2015

    Podcast Summary

    • Friend's fixation on ex may be due to scarcity mindset or lazinessEncourage friend to broaden horizons, focus on growth, and remember there's plenty of potential partners beyond past relationship.

      If a friend is fixated on an ex-partner, it may be due to either a scarcity mindset or laziness. A scarcity mindset can lead to the belief that there's no one else out there like their ex, but this is an unrealistic and potentially damaging perspective. It's important to remember that a relationship involves two people, and if the ex doesn't want to be with your friend, then there are plenty of other potential partners out there. Alternatively, your friend might be stuck in their ways due to laziness, unwilling to put in the effort to meet new people. Encourage your friend to broaden their horizons and focus on their own growth and happiness. Ultimately, it's essential to remind them that there are many possibilities for love and connection beyond their past relationship.

    • Moving on from an uninterested exFocus on meeting new people and proving to yourself that there are others who want and value you, rather than chasing an uninterested ex.

      It's essential to move on from past relationships if the other person doesn't want to be with us. Matthew Hussey, from Love Life, emphasizes that chasing an uninterested ex is a form of objectification and an unhealthy obsession. Instead, we should focus on meeting new people and proving to ourselves that there are others who want and value us. It's crucial not to waste time on relationships that no longer exist or are unwanted. So, if you're still holding on to an ex, remember, if they don't want you, they're not the one. Go out and meet new people, even if it's uncomfortable or painful at first. Share this message with your friends who might be stuck in the past, and let them know that there's a whole world of potential partners out there. Don't let fear or nostalgia hold you back from finding true love.

    (Matt Monday): Get Too Obsessed, Too Soon? WATCH THIS
    Do you get obsessed too quickly in the early days of dating? This is often dangerous because it places WAY too much of our happiness in trying to attract and keep someone (even when we don’t really know them yet). 
     
    Thankfully, this kind of “anxious dating” is something you can actually solve. In today’s episode, I dive into where this obsession comes from, and give you 5 things you can do to stop falling for someone too quickly and self-sabotaging in early dating.

    (Rewind): Why We Get Attracted to the Wrong People

    Do you ever find yourself getting attracted to people who are unavailable (emotionally or otherwise)? Treat you poorly? Or simply aren’t interested in you?

    In this episode, I explain two fundamental reasons why this keeps happening. 

    At the end of this video, I give you a practical “mind trick” you can do on yourself to change this...

    (Rewind): Don’t Avoid Difficult Conversations In Relationships. Do THIS…

    (Rewind): Don’t Avoid Difficult Conversations In Relationships. Do THIS…
    Sometimes we avoid speaking up about what we really want with a person because we're afraid we will "make waves" in the relationship.

    We come from a place of fear and anxiety. "What if me telling him I want something to be different makes him walk away altogether?" we think to ourselves.

    So we ignore the conversation and silently suffer.

    But then nothing gets better. We just put off the conversation for another day while time keeps moving on.
    If this is you, this episode is for you.

    (Rewind): Do You Feel You’re Giving Too Much in Relationships?

    What do you do when you’re a giving person but you feel like your kindness gets taken advantage of in relationships? Maybe you feel like you’re always the one trying and then your resentment builds up until one day you explode in anger. 

    In this video, I show you why we get trapped in the curse of people pleasing, how to set appropriate boundaries, and how to ask for what you need from someone you’re dating.

    A 5 Minute Rant To Fire You Up for the Next 9 Years

    A 5 Minute Rant To Fire You Up for the Next 9 Years

    Today's episode is an epic 5 minute rant that I know you'll get some value from. I can't stress enough how early it is for all of you. Most of you watching this are still in your twenties and earlier thirties and are worried that you are running out of time, STOP. It's ridiculous to think that at thirty years old you have wasted all your time and "it's over" for you. Everything you have experienced up until now, both your successes AND your failures, will help you in your next endeavor. Please understand that this is only the beginning for many of you. Stay on the offense, try new things, learn about yourself, don't worry about where you are 10 years from now and when that time comes, then you can re-evaluate and readjust your strategy, but right now is the time to take risks and experience as much as possible.

    Enjoy! Let me know what you thought.
