They Don’t Commit Until These 4 Things A...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

What really makes someone commitment-worthy in dating? And what qualities do we need to make sure are there if we want someone to choose us? 


In this episode, Matthew, Stephen and Audrey look at 4 crucial must-haves for commitment. If you’ve ever been unsure if you’re choosing the right person (or want to make yourself someone who is seen as a great potential partner), this is for you.


Topics include:

  • Why chemistry isn’t enough for commitment
  • How to decide what is “enough” in the qualities you need in a potential partner
  • Attractive micro-behaviors that make someone see you as the person they want to commit to
  • A listener question on whether you should keep trying to get commitment from someone working through their own blocks and traumas
  • The importance of a “shared vision” in commitment
