(Rewind): What Dating an Emotionally Una...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

an you relate to this?

You start dating someone who seems too good to be true. Maybe they treat you like no one ever has before, or they check all the boxes you’ve been looking for, or maybe it’s their success or status that makes you feel like the luckiest person just to have their attention (as in today’s example).

But here’s the catch: they’re sending you mixed signals when it comes to commitment. You keep spending time together, but you’re still unsure of what they actually want.

It’s a tricky situation. Even though you can sense something is off, the fear of losing them—and the uncertainty of finding someone as amazing as they seem—makes it nearly impossible to set boundaries or create distance. You’re stuck, holding onto something that might not be what you thought it was.

If this sounds familiar, don’t miss today’s episode—it’s a rewind you won’t want to miss.
