Summary

You’ve just started seeing a guy you’re really into. You just can’t get enough of each other. You spend night and day together. You cancel plans with friends so you don’t miss a chance to see him. Before you know it, you’ve got a toothbrush and a drawer of clothes at his place, and you’re wondering whether to say “I love you” (even though it’s only been a whirlwind few weeks). Then suddenly, out of the blue, he starts ignoring your texts and phone calls. He ditches plans with you to go out with the guys. You can feel the shift: he’s starting to pull away from you. In today’s LOVE Life I’m going to explain exactly WHAT is going on inside his head, WHY this is happening, and HOW you can get through this tricky phase with your relationship intact. I’ll even give you a script of what to say to reverse the situation, create more attraction, and make your relationship even stronger than it was before.

0:00.0	Matthew Hussey here with Love Life, I have a question for you. When you think about going
0:07.3	after the things you want most in life, how do you feel? Excited, inspired, capable of
0:13.2	doing anything you put your mind to? Or do you feel overwhelmed, discouraged, like you're
0:18.0	facing an insurmountable obstacle? If your answer is overwhelmed, you're not alone.
0:23.6	Most people feel the same way, and the reason is this. Most people think that in order to
0:27.9	achieve their biggest goals, they have to take big monumental actions, and that makes them
0:33.0	give up before they even begin. But the truth is, the key to achieving our goals is consistency.
0:39.2	Small actions done regularly. Consistency can make all the difference between achieving
0:44.5	your dreams and staying stuck and unfulfilled where you are. So let's set you up for success.
0:50.5	I'll do my part by showing up every few days with a new episode filled with advice to help
0:56.2	you live your best life. Think of listening to my show as your one small action you can do
1:02.4	consistently. Here's your first assignment. Go to iTunes and click the subscribe button.
1:09.0	This will make sure that you get the latest episode as soon as it's released. Ready to get
1:14.7	started? Let's go. You want to know something interesting? One of the most dangerous parts of
1:21.7	an entire relationship is the romantic phase. Is the phase where you feel completely crazy about
1:28.4	someone and they feel completely crazy about you. Allow me to explain. When we feel this way
1:35.8	about someone, when we feel this crazy burst of passion, we want to see them as much as possible.
1:43.6	There's almost no limit to the amount of time that we could spend with them and it not get old.
1:48.2	So what we do is we begin to try and rush through the early stages of a relationship. We try and
1:53.4	spend every day and night with them. We blow things off in order to see them. We even try and speed
1:58.6	things up when it gets to the stage of what we say to each other. Do I say I love you? Do I say I
2:04.2	like you? How much of myself should I be giving to you? To what extent should I be ignoring my friends
