Summary

One of the biggest frustrations about red flags is that they can be filtered out by our rose-colored glasses, only allowing us to see them clearly in hindsight.

But there are ways to appropriately respond to red flags in early dating (if you can spot them), and in this episode, I show you one way to “crack the code” . . .

That is, of course, to always have a North Star.

This week, I walk through what, exactly, a North Star is, why it’s so important to have in order to be successful in dating, and how to choose one . . .

Hey everybody, it's Matthew Hussey with the Love Life podcast. So happy you're here and I think you're really going to love this episode today. Let's get into it.

It's quite fascinating isn't it? The red flags in early interactions that we miss and I was made aware of one in particular that's a really interesting one.

0:53.2

I think a lot of people miss by one of my Love Life Club members on a live coaching call I did with them the other day.

1:03.2

By the way, for those of you who aren't a member right now of my Love Life Club, you can join for a 14 day free trial at askmh.com for anyone who wants to go and check out that membership for themselves and be perhaps on the call with me where I coach you.

This particular person said that she had met a guy right at the beginning of COVID. They had stayed in touch over the course of COVID. They hadn't seen each other during that time.

1:28.4

And then at one point they were able to see each other in person. She lived in London. He lived in New York and she flew out to see him in New York.

1:40.4

They had an amazing few days together. Really got on well. It was really romantic. They did amazing things. Went to beautiful restaurants. Had a great time. And then she flew home.

1:54.2

Then he invited her to go to Burning Man. For those of you that don't know, I mean I don't even really know that much about Burning Man Jamison despite the fact that we live in LA.

2:05.8

I know that it's in the desert in the middle of nowhere, which is a great place for a date.

2:11.4

No, Burning Man, there's lots of people that go and absolutely love it and swear by it and go every year.

3:00.3

It went off in the sense that I thought, hmm, this guy doesn't sound particularly serious.

3:06.4

But the second detail she gave me is really the part that confirmed it. She said, one of the things that I feel frustrated by is that

3:18.1

since I've come home, we've not really talked much. He doesn't reach out regularly. We don't have long chats.

3:27.2

But he is dead serious about me going to this festival with him. And she actually said to him,
