Ever feel like you’re stuck dating people who never fully show up?

Maybe they’re avoidant, inconsistent, or just not ready for real commitment—yet somehow, you keep holding on, hoping things will change.

In this episode, Matthew unpacks why we get attached to people who can’t give us what we need and how to break free from that pattern for good. You’ll learn how to reconnect with your self-worth, spot emotional unavailability early, and start saying “no” faster—so you can finally say “yes” to something real.

Is love really easier to find in Chicago than in Los Angeles? Or is it all in how you show up? In this week’s all-new Love Life episode, we unpack the myths and realities of dating in different cities—and what your zip code might (or might not) have to do with your love life.

Plus, we tackle a Love Life Line question from a listener in her 50s who’s navigating the tricky waters of dating men who prefer much younger partners. Is this a red flag, or should she keep an open mind?

This episode tackles a topic that’s as raw as it is real: “I no longer want to hear dating advice from conventionally attractive people.”

That line, from a recent British Vogue article, struck a chord with many people, and for good reason. So much dating advice comes from people who’ve never had to face what it’s like to be overlooked or rejected again and again. When you’ve never had to climb from the bottom of the mountain, “just be confident” isn’t advice . . . it’s a reminder of how far the gap really is.

This week, we’ll explore what dating looks like when the playing field isn’t level, and how rejection shapes our self-worth. It’s not about bitterness—it’s about honesty, empathy, and finding strength in our own story.

Why do we get so in our heads when we start dating someone new? In this episode, we dive deep into the most common fears people face in early dating — from getting too invested too soon, to navigating intimacy and exclusivity when someone’s seeing multiple people.

With over 1,300 comments from listeners sharing their biggest dating anxieties, we unpack the most relatable ones and offer real, practical ways to reframe them. You’ll hear us talk about:

• What it really means when someone wants intimacy but avoids emotional connection
• How to slow down without feeling like you’re “falling behind”
• Why obsession isn’t chemistry — and how to trust yourself more in the process
• The mindset shift that turns “what if I get hurt?” into “what if I stay grounded?”

If you’ve ever found yourself overthinking a text, reading too much into mixed signals, or getting attached too fast — this one’s for you.

In the aftermath of a toxic or narcissistic relationship, we can lose all sense of self. Whether our partner tried to steal our joy at every opportunity, or they wore down our self-esteem with endless arguments and cold-shoulder treatments . . . the end of a relationship like this will leave us feeling disoriented and lost, and it can be hard to rewire our brains and resume normal life once we’re free.

At this point, it can be unbelievably hard to trust other people again. Logically, we may understand that not everyone’s like our ex . . . but emotionally, we see danger at every turn. But there is a way we can heal—so we can move on and learn to trust ourselves again. And in today’s episode, I share 3 mindsets that can help you do just that.

In this week’s episode of the Love Life Podcast, we’re exploring how Gen Z is rewriting the playbook on love and relationships. Is romance really taking a back seat to mental health and ambition, or is the story more complicated than that? We talk about:

• Why Gen Z might be stepping away from traditional dating norms, and whether it’s a pushback against toxic dating culture or something deeper.

• The rise of “situationships,” “explorationships,” and other modern takes on connection.

• How social media and dating apps have shaped (and sometimes distorted) our ideas about love.

• The surprising ways Millennials and Gen Z approach dating, and the lessons any generation can draw from them.

The episode also dives into the emotional toll of modern dating, the fear of rejection, and why vulnerability feels tougher than ever. Don’t miss it!
