Love Life With Matthew Hussey

We all know the feeling. We start speaking to or dating someone and we begin to get excited about them . . . but then as soon as we show interest, they start to pull away. This can be painful and demoralizing. But why does this happen? Is it them, or is it us? In this episode, Stephen and I break down a number of “them” and “us” scenarios. For instance: • Some people loathe themselves so much that they devalue anyone who starts to see value in them. • Others might have an obsession with attainment, and once they “get” you, they just move on to their next quest. Thankfully, in these examples, you want to scare off a person like that. But sometimes our actions may inadvertently scare them off. For example: when they see us valuing them more than we should, especially given the stage of the relationship we’re currently in.---►► Matthew Hussey’s free Three Relationships newsletter isn’t just about dating—it’s about creating a life you love.

Long distance relationships can feel intoxicating. The late-night calls. The fantasy. The sense that if it weren’t for geography, this could really be something. But when does distance deepen connection—and when does it quietly keep us stuck in something that can’t truly grow? In this episode of the Love Life Podcast, we go deeper than ever on long distance love. We talk about why these connections can feel so powerful, how fantasy can sneak in and blur reality, and the often-overlooked skill of restraint (knowing when not to let yourself fall, even when attraction is there). This episode is about discernment, self-respect, and learning how to protect your heart without closing it off . . . whether the person you’re talking to lives across the world or just across town. -----►► Tired of relationships that go nowhere?
