Deep dives
Cutting off red flags early in dating
Successful people in dating are those who cut off potential partners as soon as they notice red flags. If someone says they're not ready for a relationship, it's a giant red flag indicating they will hurt you. Investing time and energy in someone who isn't ready for a relationship is a waste, especially if you're looking for something real and committed.
Believe people when they show you who they are
When someone tells you negative things about themselves, such as being mean, selfish, or not wanting a relationship, believe them. They know themselves better than you do. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to emotional harm and disappointment. Protecting yourself in a relationship is important, and it's essential to listen to what people say, especially when it goes against their own interests.
The danger of the 'one day wager' in relationships
Hoping to change someone in a relationship is a risky bet. People change internally when they're motivated to do so, not just because their partner wants them to. Betting on someone's future change can lead to disappointment and despair. Instead of holding out for someone to change, consider the difficulty of changing oneself and explore other options that offer lower risk and higher potential payoff.
It’s easy to ignore red flags when we’re falling for someone. But our heart pays the price. When you’re really attracted to someone, you can talk yourself out of acting on your concerns. You may pursue someone who doesn’t want a relationship in the hope of changing them, or prioritize someone else’s needs over your own because of your feelings of admiration. For today’s episode, I’ve gathered some of my best advice over the years on spotting and acting on red flags . . . so you can move on faster and avoid the pain of heartbreak with someone who just isn’t ready. --- Follow Matt @thematthewhussey Follow Stephen @stephenhhussey --- ►► Discover the 3 Secrets to Taking Control in Your Love Life.
