It's easy when we like someone to feel like we have to make excuses for their avoidant behaviour. Sometimes they may have genuine psychological issues that need to be resolved. But how much should you wait in limbo if the person you're dating still hasn't figured themselves out? Should their issues with their previous ex be an excuse to not move forward? And what can you do about it? Matt, Jameson, Stephen and Audrey sit down to talk about dating a celebrity, being a "challenge", valuing yourself, and much more!

Who pays on a first date?

Six years ago, I made a controversial video tackling this very subject, and it went viral.

Millions of people watched and reposted it (wikiHow even used it as the definitive video answer to the question) . . . It was so popular that it went viral AGAIN earlier this year when someone posted it under the title “Man Humbles a Room Full of Women.”

So this week, I decided to make a reaction video to my own video.

In the early stages of dating someone we like and feel excited about, everyone is worried about coming across too keen and blowing it.

This is a very human experience felt by men and women alike. And it is that very emotion that will have us mute our needs and desires as we go into overdrive to impress the other person.

But as we know, people like what they value, and communicating our standards early on is a key part of attraction we often overlook.

Expressing your needs in early dating can seem daunting, and in this conversation with my friend Lisa Bilyeu on her channel Women of Impact, we talk about how we can get brave and do exactly that.

If you want to know how to have the conversation about getting exclusive with the person you're seeing, I've created a brand-new free guide centered around how to define the relationship. It includes a script you can make your own and a comprehensive step-by-step guide that breaks down exactly how to ask for the things you want in a high-value way.

You can get it at LeaveLimbo.com . . . it's totally free and I can't wait to hear what you think.

We asked men "what is the brutally honest truth about why you get scared of committing to someone?", and boy do we have some answers for you! Matt, Stephen, Audrey and Jameson talk about whether they agree with the reasons men give for avoiding commitment, what makes some men want to stay single, and what we can do to influence it.

Does it sometimes feel like men are afraid of commitment?

You could be dating someone for a few months—and have a ton of chemistry and a great emotional connection—and yet, like clockwork, you hit a wall the moment the relationship gets to a stage where it feels like it should be progressing to the next level. Just when you start to feel that this could be something real, he puts his guard up and isn’t ready to commit.

Situations like these can be unbelievably painful, and they can leave you feeling crazy as you analyze the situation to death, wondering if you’re somehow not good enough.

Well, in this brand-new episode, I’ll share with you 3 of the main reasons why a lot of men are afraid of commitment and what you can do to turn things around by circumventing those fears.

Is there someone in your life who keeps going hot and cold with the attention they're showing you? One minute they want to see you, and the next, you feel them pulling away...

What's up with that?

When someone you like disappears and then reappears, it's easy to drive yourself crazy trying to work out the BEST way to get their attention again. You think, "Do I ignore them to teach them a lesson? Do I play it cool and pretend it was no big deal? Or do I show them I'm hurt that they disappeared?"

In this clip, I share with you an exact text message you can send them that will demonstrate your standards in a really attractive way.

One of the unchanging truths about love is that even though it's beautiful when we find it, there's always a chance we can lose it.

But how do we move on from an old chapter when it's over? How do you develop the right mindset to get back in the game when you've faced a major setback?

Matt and the team sit down to discuss starting over and why it can be both a painful and beautiful experience.

I’ve heard this story a thousand times before . . .

A woman goes on a date with a guy and they hit it off. Things seem to be going well, and pretty soon, they’re seeing each other all the time. He’s texting her daily, making plans with her for the future, and every time his name pops up on her phone, she feels a surge of happiness and excitement.

That very same excitement keeps hitting new peaks until, suddenly, she feels a shift. He grows more and more distant, and at first she’s not sure whether she’s imagining it or whether he really is pulling away. She doubles down on effort and communication, but it only seems to drive him further away until eventually he calls it a day and stops messaging altogether.

If this has ever happened to you, then you know it can drive you crazy working out how to act when someone is clearly pulling away from you.

But as it turns out, there is a right way and a wrong way to proceed when this happens, and it can determine whether someone stays or goes.

In today’s episode, I’ll share with you the #1 reason why people pull away and a high-value way to respond to it.

It's easy to feel like our struggles, or past, our pain, is holding us back in life. And I'm not here to pretend it's easy to deal with those burdens we carry with us. But they don't have to define you. In fact, if you choose, you can make them the start of a completely different story that gives you more power than you could possibly imagine.

So today, here is a personal message on what it takes to create light even in the darkest moments...

Do you have a dating type? Have your previous relationships always been with a similar person, in terms of looks, personality or behavioural dynamics?

It's easy for us to look at the past and tell ourselves, "This is who I am. This is who I like." And it can affect how we date now simply because of what we're used to. But is it helpful to lock ourselves in on a single kind of person? Or should our tastes be more flexible when finding love?

Matt and the team talk about the topic of dating types and how to choose your compass when looking for the right person so that you focus on what really matters in love.

On dating apps, first impressions matter. And after you clear the first hurdle of endless swiping and find someone who piques your interest, it’s often the next step that’s the hardest . . . That is, of course: What on EARTH do you say to them?!

You scan their bio, hoping inspiration will strike and you’ll manage to figure out the perfect opening gambit. You think: Would a simple “hey” or “great photo” show a lack of imagination? I’d like to just be myself, but it can feel so hard to be authentic without seeming too eager . . . Many times, thoughts like these make us overthink everything to the point where we end up sending something awkward . . . or worse, not sending anything at all, letting the opportunity of connection pass us by. So how can we make an impression on people who haven’t yet had the chance to meet us and see how awesome we are?

In today’s episode, I’m going to share with you 3 openers you can send right away to stand out on a dating app.

You wouldn’t believe how many people read every blog, watch every YouTube video, and follow every Facebook post I put out, and yet still say:

“Yeah, Matt… I get it. But there’s this one guy that I really like…”

And because they’re so head-over-heels for this man, all of the advice goes out of the window.

In this episode, I’m about to reveal 2 simple words that will tell you everything you need to know about men and how to get the love you really deserve…

When you're scared of someone else leaving, it can make you bail at the first sign of an argument or problem. You make assumptions and think the worst any time you have a negative moment.

If you've struggled with the insecurity of worrying someone else will leave, this episode will give you some tools and mindsets to help feel more secure and clear about your worth and be comfortable in your relationship again.

In today’s new episode, I’ll share with you exactly how to do that through 13 highly practical tips to get him to take you more seriously. Some of these are subtle, but each one of these points can have an outsized impact on how your relationship moves forward.

I really wanted to make this because the tone you set in the beginning will serve you throughout your entire relationship, and the influence you can have on being taken seriously by someone is huge. It can determine whether your relationship will be a casual one that’s on their terms, or a committed, loving one where you’re building something together.

And in addition to being practical, this episode breaks down the psychology behind each of these tips and provides you with examples (and in many cases, specific texts) you can customize and make your own.
