(Matt Monday): Should You Lower Your Standards?

December 26, 2022 08:09 - 6 minutes - 8.53 MB

As we roll into the New Year, it seems like as good a time as any to talk about our standards. We think of a new year as being a time where we reset our standards, don’t we? And yet, have you ever worried that you’re being too picky? And have you ever wondered if this “pickiness” is the thing that’s stopping you from finding a relationship?

196: When Is "Casual Fun" Dangerous in Dating?

December 21, 2022 13:48 - 47 minutes - 68.2 MB

Casual relationships and hook-ups are more common than ever. Some even talk about a "hook-up culture".  But even though we have more choice than ever, there are sometimes consequences we never anticipate. Society says we shouldn’t have stigma around hooking up and casually dating - and that's a good thing - but it can also be painful if we aren't honest about what we really want. We always have to ask the question: is this serving us? Am I feeling respected or am I doing something becau...

OK, picture this . . . I’m in my local coffee shop, minding my own business—my business in this case is ordering an oat milk flat white (just in case we ever go to coffee and you want to know what my order is)—and I get talking to a woman who tells me she’s mad at me. She knows who I am, she’s a fan, she even said my program worked for her, and yet she told me she was mad at me. In this episode, I tell the full story . . .

Do you know what really makes relationships fall apart? I do.  Having now coached for over 10 years on the topic of dating, I’ve seen the worst behaviors over and over again.  And if we don’t work on eliminating these toxic relationship habits, it doesn’t matter how attractive we are: we’ll always find a way to self-sabotage and drive our partner away. I don’t know about you, but a lifetime of painful arguments and emotional mind games isn’t something I ever want to settle for in...

(Matt Monday): 5 Reasons You're Single That Have Nothing to Do With Love

December 12, 2022 14:19 - 18 minutes - 24.8 MB

“Why am I still single?!?” If you’ve asked yourself this question long enough, you might be starting to feel like finding love is simply a matter of luck. And sometimes that’s true.

December 09, 2022 07:33 - 7 minutes - 11 MB

For a long time I thought it was crazy how many women asked me to talk about this topic. But now, I realize the reason is obvious: In 2022, more of us are doing long-distance relationships than ever. You meet a great guy on Instagram who doesn’t live in the same country... You start dating the perfect man in your city, only to find out he’s been offered a new job 1000 miles away… And suddenly, you find yourself having “Skype dates”, and you now spend half your work day sending si...

(Matt Monday): This Dangerous Guy Keeps You Single

December 05, 2022 14:31 - 14 minutes - 20 MB

I’m curious if you can relate to this . . .   You know you have a lot to offer someone, but you can’t seem to get out of the cycle of dating the wrong people—bouncing from one emotionally unavailable guy to the next.   What you may not notice is that—without even realizing it—you’ve likely conditioned yourself to attract those types of guys. While a casual fling with someone like that may feel harmless, you may be surprised to learn just how much it can shift the way you approach dat...

(Matt Monday): Confusing Sh*t Men Say (And What They Really Mean)

November 27, 2022 18:31 - 17 minutes - 23.9 MB

“Let’s just take it day by day.”  “We may not be ‘official,’ but I basically act like your boyfriend.

How is it that you can have great communication with a guy in nearly every area . . . yet when it comes to talking about the relationship, you feel lik...

(Rewind): Never Make This Flirting Mistake In Conversation

November 25, 2022 14:04 - 5 minutes - 7.33 MB

You're on a date with someone. You're both sharing stories.  He tells you that he plays the guitar. You notice that he seems really proud when he tells you about playing his first gig. Then without missing a moment, you start enthusiastically telling him about your friend who's also in a band, is the best guitarist you've ever seen, and has just released and album. Suddenly, his eyes narrow and he seems emotionally checked out, maybe even less interested. Why? What happened? In t...

November 23, 2022 08:44 - 1 hour - 91.5 MB

There may be few more controversial and divisive topics than that of watching porn in relationships.  For some, it’s cheating.

(Matt Monday): The #1 Thing Men Say to Avoid Commitment

November 21, 2022 18:28 - 7 minutes - 9.92 MB

In the early days of dating, figuring out if someone is actually open to a relationship is key. But what does it mean when you ask them whether they're interested in a committed relationship and they respond, "I could be open to that. . . with the right person"? This sentence can make us feel safe to dive in, but do we really know whether they're truly looking for a relationship. . . or just telling us what we want to hear? In today's episode, I give you three things to look for in th...

(Matt Monday): 7 Ways To Create Chemistry (Make Him Ask You Out Again)

November 14, 2022 16:31 - 11 minutes - 16.3 MB

You felt like the date couldn’t have gone better. They told you they had the best time, and as soon as you got home, you started counting down the minutes until you could see them again . . .  Except you never got that second date. Why would someone disappear after saying they had a really great time? Today’s episode reveals the #1 reason why this happens, and what you can do about it. I’ll give you a hint: chemistry is the key factor that turns a first date into a second one—and in th...

(Rewind): If You’re Thinking About Other People In A Relationship, Listen To This…

November 11, 2022 12:30 - 9 minutes - 13.5 MB

Back in ye olden times, the fear that a partner might be cheating was enough to keep someone up at night. But in recent years, we’ve added a new layer of anxiety to the mix: “micro-cheating,” a.k.a. “back burner relationships.”   In fact, when Psychology Today recently polled people who are in a relationship, 56% revealed they had a back burner person: someone they’re in contact with who could be an option if their current relationship doesn’t go the distance.   That’s not to say that ev...

190: How To Leave A Narcissist (Part 2)

November 09, 2022 06:55 - 27 minutes - 39.1 MB

Why are toxic relationships so hard to leave? One reason is because you hold onto the small good moments and fail to acknowledge the extent of the bad.  And when we feel sympathy for someone, this also makes us doubt ourselves. We think "Maybe I'm wrong?", "Maybe I'm being too harsh on this person?", "Maybe it's actually ok?"  In this episode, Matt, Stephen, Audrey and Jameson talk about how to get the courage to let go of a narcissistic or toxic relationship and feel certain in your dec...

(Matt Monday): How to Stop Obsessing Over Someone You Want

November 07, 2022 20:57 - 16 minutes - 23 MB

Have you ever created an entire relationship in your head before going on a date with someone? Perhaps you’ve been texting with them for weeks and have already deduced they could be “The One,” or maybe you live for the two minutes of conversation you have with them before spin class.

(Matt Monday): He Said He Wanted You Then Pulled Away? HERE’S WHY…

October 31, 2022 17:06 - 14 minutes - 20.2 MB

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 episode, I g...

Ever notice how you completely fall apart when you try to speak to that guy you’re really attracted to? It’s like with your best friends you can be effortlessly funny, talkative, and smart, then suddenly you’re talking to this guy and your brain turns to mush. Then begins the negative self-talk: “I’m not pretty enough,” “I have nothing interesting to say,” “He’s not going to like me.” It’s like you instantly lose all of your game. You go into “impress” mode. You over-analyze everyt...

Do you feel like your brain is wired wrong because despite your better judgment, you’re only attracted to the bad boys or the players? You know . . . you love the idea of a great, stable guy who treats you right, but somehow you’ve become so accustomed to the highs and lows of roller-coaster relationships that you can’t imagine feeling chemistry with such a man.

Do you want marriage and kids? Feel like you have a sense of urgency because of your biological clock? It’s common for our desires for the future to bring up all kinds of anxieties in dating.

(Matt Monday): Why He's Not Giving You the Respect You Deserve

October 10, 2022 18:50 - 12 minutes - 17 MB

Wondering why the guy you’re seeing doesn’t seem to respect you? You might be surprised by the reason . . . If your tendency is toward anxiety, you’ll go to great lengths just to restore the peace and get things “back to normal” as quickly as possible. This often includes the compulsion to say “sorry” even when something’s not your fault. The danger with this is that when we make it clear to someone that we’ll do anything to avoid difficult conversations, it becomes easy for them to ta...

Does absence really make the heart grow fonder . . . especially when the person you’re into seems to forget you exist when you’re not in the same room? When you’re together, life couldn’t be better. You have off-the-charts chemistry, they’re totally focused on you, and your connection feels genuine. The catch?

Have you dated someone you find so amazing and impressive that you almost start to feel not good enough for them? Maybe it’s their attractiveness or intelligence . . . or perhaps it’s their success, wealth, or status (such as the example in today’s video) that has you feeling lucky whenever they turn their attention to you.

Ever sat ruminating obsessively over something you could have or should have done differently in your relationship? Something you said, something you did, or something you wish you’d have done more? It’s a dreadful, sickening feeling. I know because I’ve felt it. It leads to regret, anxiety, self-loathing… not to mention a lack of appetite and insomnia.

What do you do if you’re dating a Narcissist? It’s one thing to recognise the signs: questioning your sanity, feeling devalued, never having your needs account for. But what about when you FINALLY decide you have to leave? That can be the hardest part. A narcissist can make you feel guilty.

(Rewind): Don’t Settle For Less. Settle On What You Want

September 09, 2022 12:20 - 4 minutes - 5.86 MB

There's a huge difference between settling FOR something in life and settling ON something. When we "settle for" something, it's often the result of us lowering our standards.
