They treat it like, well, if you want me, there must be something wrong with you.

You don't want me, then you must be on to something.

Hey everyone, it's Matthew Hussey with the Love Life podcast.

I wanted to share this important idea with you today.

I think you're really going to love it.

So check it out and let me know what you think.

Have you ever found yourself attracted to the wrong person?

What is the wrong person?

Well the wrong person could be someone who doesn't notice us or frankly doesn't even care

that we exist.

It could be someone who is treating us badly, someone who is toxic.

It could be someone who's simply not prepared to invest on the level that we are.

But why do we fall for this kind of person?

There are two answers to this.

One is perspective, the other is self-esteem.

Let's start with perspective.

Sometimes we find someone who appears to be hard to get, uniquely challenging.

And because they're uniquely challenging, we immediately attribute a value to them based

on a kind of cerebral supply and demand economics, if they're not available, they must be worth

more.

And that's why when people come to me and say, Matt, why am I always attracted to the people

I can't have, but the people that want me, I'm never attracted to.
