Summary
You’ve been seeing someone for months. They give you attention, consistency, and intimacy—but when it comes to commitment, they always have a reason why “now isn’t the right time.” Sound familiar?
In this episode, Matthew Hussey coaches a listener through one of the hardest situations in dating: when someone gives you just enough to keep you hooked, but never enough to move things forward. You’ll learn how to separate reasons from reality, protect your time and energy, and finally stop waiting for someone who isn’t ready to say yes to you.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in a relationship that’s “almost” something real, this conversation will give you the clarity—and confidence—to move forward without regret.
