They’re "Not Sure" They Can Commit to Yo...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

"I’m not sure if I’m ready for a relationship with you right now. . .” 

Nobody wants to hear these words. 

Especially when it’s coming from someone you genuinely care about. 

Someone you’ve invested time and energy in. . . and someone you feel could be the right person for you in the long term. 

It leaves you wishing they could just get over their indecision... 

If that sounds familiar, I have a simple solution: 

Because there IS a right way and a wrong way to handle this situation... 

The wrong way is to try and convince them of all the reasons you’re a great fit (even if every reason is true). This can accidentally push them further away. . .

The right way to handle this situation is to meet their confusion with love and kindness, while also standing strong and respecting yourself. 

(Here’s the surprising part: this is actually an incredible opportunity to show your value and remind them of what they risk losing.)
