You're basically creating a blank space that they can fill in with whatever thing has been on their mind that they haven't been talking about.

Welcome everybody to the Love Life podcast with me Matthew Hussie, Stephen Hussie.

Hello everyone. Jameson Jordan. Greetings listeners. And Audrey Lestrat. Hi everyone.

Full house today guys. James. Every card in the pack. So who coined the name James for us? Was it you or was it Jameson?

I think it was you. So James is a, did I really? James is an acronym Jameson Audrey Matthew and Stephen.

Which everyone knows because they listen to the previous episodes. Did we do James in the previous episode?

Yeah, it was in the previous episode. Oh, I don't think we did.

Listeners can tell us who coined it if we did mention it in the previous episode. I hope we didn't do it in the last episode because I really, I just am not remembering things.

I don't remember anymore if that's the case. We definitely did. And we Stephen. Yeah, I think we did.

Well, welcome everybody back to another episode. Now before we jump into today's topic, which Stephen and Audrey maybe, because you sprung today's topic on me.

So maybe you can just give us a little teaser of what today's topic is. And then I want to read an email review from one of our listeners.

All right. Well, everyone knows that the last two years have been fraught difficult for many reasons for both single and couples alike Matt.

And we want to talk today about a little solution for people who are dating or with someone. And this is advice from none other than the New York Times itself Matthew on the seven essential questions.

You can ask your partner for a relationship check in. And I think these all apply to a lot of people as well, whether you're in a relationship or not.

I think you're going to get a lot of value out of hearing what these are.

So even if you're just seeing someone right now, do you think there's some value in these? Yeah, absolutely.

All right. We'll see. Very good. I look forward to them. We have an email review here from Hannah who says, hi, Matthew and everyone.

I love an idea or rule that I just recently heard you, Matthew say it was the idea of you and your partner whom you live with getting ready separately when you're going for a date.

I love that idea. What a brilliant idea. I feel like this is one of the many techniques you can use to keep the spark and the attraction alive and well in a long term relationship.

Love your content so much. You changed my life in a phenomenal way 10 years ago. And I've loved listening to you ever since much love Hannah.

Well, thank you, Hannah. I stand by that rule. Yeah. I agree.

I mean, you know, it's not easy in every house. Some people live in a studio. And so you might just have to take turns.
