Summary
Have you ever wondered what the right amount of effort to put in with a guy is? Should you let him know you’d like to go on a date with him? And what about after the date… Should you let him know you’d like to see him again if you felt the date went well but he’s not being proactive about setting up another one? Where is the line between showing a guy you like him, and chasing someone who’s simply not that interested? It can be tricky. But I want to make it simple.
You may have heard me say, “Invest in those who invest in you.” But that could leave you wondering to yourself: “Fine Matthew, but so often that means I’m doing nothing because no one is investing in me! And doesn’t someone need to take the first step to invest something if anything is ever going to happen?” It’s a valid point. I’ll show you exactly how to solve this at the end of this episode, so make sure you listen all the way through!

| 0:00.0 | Hello there, Pickles peaches, puddings and pears. It is your old pal Stephen Hussey here, |
| 0:27.9 | and I am the host of the Love Like podcast, and I'm going to hand over to old Mattie boy today, |
| 0:33.9 | because he's going to be talking all about that situation where you're sitting there, maybe |
| 0:39.2 | you're looking at the phone and you're like, hey, I like this person, but I'm not going |
| 0:43.8 | to pursue first. I should wait for them to pursue first, right? But then maybe I should |
| 0:47.9 | give a bit first, because then they know I actually like them, but then am I giving too |
| 0:51.7 | much? How do I decide when I should actually wait for the investment and when I should |
| 0:56.8 | actually pursue and go for it? And how do we get out of this stalemate situation? So before |
| 1:03.4 | I do that, Matt mentions a guide in the clip, and that guide is to get the seven surprising |
| 1:10.0 | signs that a guy likes you, and you can download that at doeshelikeu.com. So you want those |
| 1:16.1 | signs? Does he like you?com? And you can go download the free PDF. Okay, that's it from |
| 1:23.5 | me for today. I will see you real soon. Over to Matt. |
| 1:27.8 | So last week I ended with the conclusion on a bunch of terms like ghostings on being |
| 1:34.0 | haunting that they all just represented low investment. And therefore, we're all indicative |
| 1:40.3 | of a central problem, which was that we tend to invest in people based on how much we like |
| 1:45.8 | them, not based on how much they are investing in us. And I've said this ad nauseam over |
| 1:52.0 | the course of the last decade of my life, the people that follow me a lot will be able |
| 1:56.2 | to repeat this phrase easily because I say it so much, invest in those who invest in |
| 2:01.6 | you, don't invest in someone based on how much you like them. But there is a challenge |
| 2:07.1 | to this that I think is interesting because it adds a little nuance. Someone could easily |
| 2:11.8 | say, but Matthew, and by the way, someone did say this. I was on a podcast with Lisa |
