I love the trash can analogy. I don’t know why this showed up my algorithm but it definitely gets me thinking about my husband when we first met and what has kept us so happy these last 18 years. For me, it is the simple fact that from day 1 of living together (after marriage) he always comes out the front door to great me in the driveway. He has the same look on his face today as the first time he came out to greet me all those years ago. He opens my car door, grabs my water bottle and purse, gives me a kiss and checks the trunk to see if anything needs to be brought inside. I can’t tell you how much I love and appreciate that he does this everyday. How does he still feel so excited to see me? I know I am blessed. I cherish him and our daughter with all my heart. Take care of each other, laugh a lot, have a short memory and be quick to forgive.
One thing I would like to mention - if ever you are approached by another who presents themselves as interested in you, just be kind. If you are not interested, just be kind. This advice is for everyone.
But also the 2nd half, don't be one dimensional and find a unique pairing, an "and", don't be boring and entitled, love takes work. The more being a rare bird, the more unique pairing makes them harder to lose
Towards the last quarter: Don't be needy, insecure, boring, expect a partner to fix it, and especially for too long, it's too much pressure, keep working on yourself.
I was adamantly against asking out a guy that I liked. I believed that I deserved to be pursued and that if he didn't make the first move by asking me out, or even talking to me, he wasn't doing that. I wanted a man who was assertive and manly and I didn't think he was because he hadn't talked to me in months. After watching one of Matthew's videos talking about how hard it was for men, I decided I would ask the guy I liked out for coffee. I worked up the nerve and he was delighted. We hit it off amazingly and have been inseparable since. I now know that he wanted to talk to me but would not have asked me out as he believed it would have been inappropriate because of the situation and he was tired of putting himself out there and being rejected over and over. Turns out, he is assertive, incredibly engaged and communicative, and has pursued me every step of the way. Taking the chance to ask him out and "drop my handkerchief" was the best decision I ever made, and I realized playing hard to get was actually hurting me.
Few Good Men will approach a woman unless she gives a clear signal to him. A smile, a flip of your hair while looking at him. These all give a signal to man that you are open to an approach.
If he is indeed, assertive , then he should’ve had no problem initiating communication with you. So if he is assertive etc and didn’t do that, then he may have not been as interested.. not to be mean.. but men rarely turn women down so once you asked, he probably just went along with it. If he lacks the confidence to approach me then I rather not bother personally
I literally went thru like a near five yr period where every man I met made me make the first move!? It was like a thing. I felt like I was being taught some unknown lesson by the universe Guy would sit there the whole night ! And not make a move but want to. It drove me nuts!!
@@UnpredictableAri That may have been initially true, but I took a lot of factors into play when making my decision. We only saw each other in a church setting (awkward place to meet someone, especially when you’re not a teen or young single) and I have 3 children who were with me on a regular basis. I thought the same thing as you which is why I refused to talk to him first, but I didn’t know him or his history. A mid thirties man going around church asking single mothers if they want to go on dates would come across as more agressive than assertive, in my opinion. (There was an older man who asked to get to know me more and I believed his approach to be assertive, which I liked at first. But it was quickly revealed that he was agressive, manipulative, and lied to me about very important information.) We were both fairly new to the church and still getting to know people, so mingling can take some time. I guess I could have simply introduced myself and initiated conversation as opposed to asking him to get coffee with me, but I knew I already had a crush, I’m in my thirties with three kids, not interested in games, and didn’t want to get to know someone at church a few minutes here or there with everyone watching us (and everyone was definitely watching us). So, as much as I have held the same belief you do, I decided to take a chance, really with the intention of just getting over my crush, and find out who he was. Thankfully, he wasn’t JUST being nice. He was actually interested in talking to me and getting to know me and had been working up the nerve for several weeks. From the moment we started talking he showed an incredible amount of interest and has never stopped. I have never been more pursued or loved more purely and passionately, and everyday I’m grateful I took that chance. The initial disinterest was about dating and being rejected or let down again, not me personally, and the diamond ring on my finger says he’s very much interested in spending his life with me and my children. He’s my best friend and the best thing that’s ever happened to us, and thankfully my children are as obsessed with him as much as I am.
I recently stopped dating a guy because we had conflicting core values (I highly value growth and new life experiences, he highly values routine, stability and security). Great guy, mature adult, but we both recognized that it we would have to compromise ourselves too greatly to have a long-term relationship. Yes, all relationships take work but I still want someone who is a proper match and who aligns reasonably enough with my values. I won’t significantly change my path for someone else, but I am willing to veer if their path is close enough to mine.
Typical. You are a victim of feminism and you probably don't even realize it. The ambition you have will lead to loneliness because you believe you can have it all right? Strong and independent powerful woman not willing to settle. You are such an idiot.
In relationships, it’s like a delicate dance, just like the wrong move, you must correct and continue on, that way there is less damage control or repercussions in the end❤
Oh my gosh...my heart when he says " its the trashcan that determines the relationship..." that is how I think!!! Choose happiness in the little moments!
I started listening to Matt when he first started showing up online. He’s really full of great observations. All his work has certainly built up a wealth of knowledge. This was a Great conversation.
This guy is successful because he’s great at coming up with analogies. Anyone can have a great time at Disney World - but the themed trash cans throughout the park make it truly great. You fall in love with Space Mountain (thrill ride) but it’s the trash cans (attention to detail) that make you truly happy.
Why did I guess that once he said perfect relationship everyone would only concentrate on that. He doesn't mean relationships are perfect, he means the prefect one for you! Someone who works hard at the relationship and wants to grow together. Cuz, let's face it, we have a very hard time finding one person who it works with.
I happen to believe that the perfect relationship can only be found with you and yourself and even that takes daily effort........but Matthew and you are two lovely people that make this world a happier place for so many. Thank you ! xx
Lots of great, invaluable information Matthew! You have much wisdom for a man of 27 years. I dare to disagree on one point. In this video, you gave us ladies advice that trusting our instincts might not always be a good thing. I think your concept is correct. I would rephrase to say "don't trust your insecurities". Instincts are apart from our insecurities. I learned that from someone and it stuck with me. I once didn't trust my instincts and decided to be insecure regarding my own intuition, this led me to latch on to an abusive relationship, to which I am now free from, and all the more wise when it comes to instincts 🎉
This is the best dating advice: it’s the little special things that are big (eg Disney’s detailed trash cans, not the rides) and the couple needs to be mutually builders of its ‘castle’ (the home of the relationship)
@ 16:55 - 19:00 - This part is REALLY great ! It's so seldom do people talk about the difficulty between transitioning back & forth between our THALAMUS ( the seat of our emotions [ original lower part of our brain ] ) & our CORTEX. The problems are not only are they on different levels but if you get too emotional it can overload your cortex so you can't use it! But even if you are calm it takes time to transition to your cortex - known as applying a CORTICAL PAUSE. Sometimes the transition comes so easily that you're not even aware of it, other times you have to take a little time to apply it "consciously". With awareness & practice it comes more easily. But then this is yet another thing we are not taught when we are much younger so I guess it's hardly surprising there are so many people wandering around on this planet who don't have a clue as to how to even start using their cortex !
Yup. Right now I’m grieving getting to the 4th stage and realizing compatibility is not there as much as it seemed to be and decided to let it go as much as stage 1, 2 and 3 were ON POINT !!! So painful.
After almost 4 yrs online and having lots of separations and getting back together etc.. he started asking too many personal questions like wanting my SS# to help me with home improvements and my Bank # for his Insurance so he could help me money wise etc. He was in the army deployed in Afghanistan and we chatted as often as possible phone chats too and planned to meet this Summer but too many little things gnawed in that gut feeling you get somethings not right...Told him long ago you have to have all your Covid shots or it's a no go! He refused so I called our local Army Reserve and yes all Soldiers must have them...That did it! 3 weeks and my ❤is healing slowly...Being a Widow of 19 yrs I'm set in my ways and I know like my sweet Dad used to say "If it sounds too good to be true it probably is! And no I never gave him any money either! Sorry so long but feel better writing all this anyway🙏⚘
I think this interview is great. It unearthed a lot of unique insights that I don't usually hear about. Although Lewis asked really good questions, I think perhaps he could let Matthew elaborate on what he want to say rather than cutting him off abruptly and going off on a tangent right then and there. Maybe Matthew's elaboration could open up to more interesting questions insights. In terms of tangents, I think it could explored later in the interview, perhaps writing a note about it and then going back into it after Matthew has fully elaborated on it or in the later parts of the interview. I think this would make the interview really awesome overall. But I overall I still did enjoy the interview, and thank you for asking really good questions.
My favorite part of this conversation begins after Lewis asks Matt why he thinks that people bail on relationships more than ever. What Matt has to say about love and desire is very astute. Everything he says after that is golden.
@@ShawnaMarieQueenBee he pretty much said there has to be desire Desire is there in the very beginning bc there was space As the relationship progresses, create space to maintain desire
The Castle analogy reminds me of the song "Being in Love" from the old Broadway muscial The Music Man where the character Marian the Librarian sings about wanting a man "who is more interested in Us, than he is interested in me." It's her anthem about learning the difference between fairy tale love vs. a real life committment.
I don’t think using time like 30 years is always an indicator of a good relationship and love. I’ve know people who stay together 10, 20 years because one is so codependent and one walks all over them, that isn’t healthy love where you are building a castle together.
I think you have to be open to learning each other….have no expectations or if you have, don’t hide them, share it with your partner so they understand you. Communication us a must….
Lewis, I love your videos not just because the people you interview are great people with great insight into their fields, but your questions are always so neat!! congrats on your fantastic job.
Loved the section on discernment between Love and Desire and how it is cultivated... (and the antithesis mentioned many times which is boredom) Love to introduce Ecstasy which is the dance between both Love and Desire. It can be cultivated and is also discovered in an innate state of deep presence (intrinsic and extrinsic.) Hello, infinite attraction - thanks to curiosity. Curiosity can be circumstantial as in using distance, to create desire but also can be created deliberately no matter the circumstance, asserting that you don't know your partner and then delight in discovering them. Also known as the Art of the Question that leads to the Art of the Meow-time that follows :D
Relationships are difficult, Jim and i been together for 16yrs and been married 1yr now. We been through so much. But he is my soul mate and treats me like a queen.
We need to stop this rat race, work less leave more, have funn, be more in nature, find who we really are, have time for anything we want to have time, introduce quality...
Spot on guys! Such a great breakdown on this whole topic. And Lewis also always does the perfect job on questioning exactly what we're all thinking haha coupled with the perfect answers!
one thing i have learnt about men is they get attracted every moment they meet an attractive girl so at some point they must break your heart and they thing that you dont have the same feeling as a woman
Rejection for a woman is close to impossible to recover from. Smile and look friendly if you are interested in a guy. If he approaches, great, if not, you still have your heart intact.
Cant wait till you do it , your advice is incredibly insigtful based on the feedback from us who have done it , what you may underestimate is the damage done to people , and the massive complications from that damage interpersonal from one damaged person to another , it gets very hard as time goes by.
I actually think it's fun to approach a guy I find interesting every now and then. I think it's refreshing, it feels natural, and I mean, who cares about etiquette? I think it's better to just go with your gut and have fun. As long as you're being yourself, it's okay.
I only just started listening to you and I’m sure you already know why haha … but I love your story about the two builders …I feel so much more optimistic already … there is a lot to still learn but well … when better than now … better late than never 🥰
This was so helpful. I wanted to understand and relate to some of these things and concepts but had nothing to draw from. I do now. Thank you so so much.
I love these two guys...I could listen to them all day. "Music happens between the notes" was my favorite quote. The castle analogy was spot on. I'm not looking for a partner right now, just working on better myself and I realized that listening to them talk about love, relationships, etc is really enlightening and good advice to use on ANY relationship. At the end of the day the world functions because of the infinite relationships that ties every single organism in an invisible, intricate web of connections.
The best teacher is through experience. And there's no perfect relationship you can find (fairytale vs reality) because we can only tell it at the end, if that is a perfect relationship.
True my experience alone already taught me what they are saying so when they say it now it resonates with me..it's not rocket science for me I thank God I will I allowed myself to go the experience route
How about moving to Costa Rica, and after a year he tells me that my kids aren’t welcome to be there(more of a vacation place). I decided to pack up and leave because he never tried any solution. Now he’s upset, he went through an angry spell, I had to tell him what I’d do as a man if I loved a woman. This is a unique situation that I’m not sure how to deal with. Giving it time until summer as I’m back in Canada.
So you never let go of that and put yourself in the moment of being with your woman. You have to learn to compartmentalize or as some people say let it go and enjoy what you're doing in that moment and when you go back to work let let it go and get fully engaged in the moment
Thanks to u and Hussey for sharing valuable information! Trash cans was a first one for me! I was thinking 💭 somebody has to pick up the stinky trash. Respect for them!
I really enjoyed and appreciate both of your explanations based on your experiences and valid thoughts about life, love and relationships. It'll really be beneficial for many of us. Thank you so much for your kind efforts. Love and respects from India
Lewis you did a great job of as an interviewer in reading your guest and just letting the guest go on and on and keeping a neutral response (especially during the trash cans part).

200 years ago, a woman would purposely drop her handkerchief. Omg, Matthew just told the same story as i was typing this. Hilarious 😂 Bottom line, she has to help him out. ❤️❤️ 2 of my favourite guys here. Adore you both.
I have learned so much educated myself this video is perfect ! I like the castle analogy it’s really something to think about often times women we just don’t know any better so we end up being taken advantage of and in fantasyland this video helps us not to be that way.
Love this compilation ❤️ Lewis, thank you for this, and for Matthews book! It has helped me so much with a few relationships of mine over these past few months 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m glad I found him like over 7 yrs ago. It helped and he is correct on some things, I remember when he said watch out, what I tell you is dangerous Use what I say on good terms, or evil or something like that Haha I would love to see him in Australia. I learned to say hello to everyone or ask what time is it, directions somewhere, ask for their help or their opinion, show interest ask questions so many times someone has said why don’t you google it. I say I like asking people I learn more, I would never do long distance unless someone can move ASAP.
Yes, they are talking as if there just normal, open, nice people out there going for a coffee because they want a relationship...They completely omit all the crazy ones, narcs, addicts, etc. You never know what you are going to get, you can only look at the outside.
What he is talking about they are all rightfully correct to all the things he is sayings I’ve seen and know that some would do things like that Playing games teasing men To the point they’re recognized
I don’t know if I should call myself lucky or unfortunate to have met exactly the type of guy they are talking about here 59:00 I’m in love with him and I kinda pushed him away cos it’s impossible not to fall head over heels for someone like this.
I am never alone and it' gets very minutnous I haven't figured out what I want n I do like my alone time I do not want to loose it what do I do without insulting anyone I've tryed various things nothing is getting threw
I disagree with the very first part of his answer...being a man does NOT discredit him at all. I digress. I love listening to his wisdom and the wisdom of so many who society "deems" as "unqualified". 😃💯🙌
How about when the guy is always txting you you dont know his motives he is not courting the hirl but always like and heart your post and texting you thank you have a good day for almost one year.
Boldness comes in different stages in your life once it shows in earlier years of of teenage lives those are bullish people doesn't matter their girls or boys the nice guy will win always with his right approaches bold type and

I love this!
One thing I would like to mention - if ever you are approached by another who presents themselves as interested in you, just be kind. If you are not interested, just be kind. This advice is for everyone.
Excellent recommendation 👌
Four components to a successful relationship (about an hour and 21 minutes in:) 1. Admiration 2. Connection 3. Commitment 4. Compatibility
🙌
But also the 2nd half, don't be one dimensional and find a unique pairing, an "and", don't be boring and entitled, love takes work. The more being a rare bird, the more unique pairing makes them harder to lose
Towards the last quarter: Don't be needy, insecure, boring, expect a partner to fix it, and especially for too long, it's too much pressure, keep working on yourself.

"Being a genuine team" ...I love that.
My favorite part of this conversation begins after Lewis asks Matt why he thinks that people bail on relationships more than ever. What Matt has to say about love and desire is very astute. Everything he says after that is golden.
Where is that time wise in this video?
@@ShawnaMarieQueenBee a little past midway
@@ShawnaMarieQueenBee he pretty much said there has to be desire
Desire is there in the very beginning bc there was space As the relationship progresses, create space to maintain desire
Self development is really our responsibility before our partner helps us.
The Castle analogy reminds me of the song "Being in Love" from the old Broadway muscial The Music Man where the character Marian the Librarian sings about wanting a man "who is more interested in Us, than he is interested in me." It's her anthem about learning the difference between fairy tale love vs. a real life committment.
I don’t think using time like 30 years is always an indicator of a good relationship and love. I’ve know people who stay together 10, 20 years because one is so codependent and one walks all over them, that isn’t healthy love where you are building a castle together.
I think you have to be open to learning each other….have no expectations or if you have, don’t hide them, share it with your partner so they understand you. Communication us a must….
🙌
@Shukuat Abiola I have mine
OMG!!!! 🤔🤔🤔
That's brilliant...
The difference between "being in love and being happy...."
You can be in love and be unhappy...😔
Lewis, I love your videos not just because the people you interview are great people with great insight into their fields, but your questions are always so neat!! congrats on your fantastic job.

Loved the section on discernment between Love and Desire and how it is cultivated... (and the antithesis mentioned many times which is boredom) Love to introduce Ecstasy which is the dance between both Love and Desire. It can be cultivated and is also discovered in an innate state of deep presence (intrinsic and extrinsic.) Hello, infinite attraction - thanks to curiosity. Curiosity can be circumstantial as in using distance, to create desire but also can be created deliberately no matter the circumstance, asserting that you don't know your partner and then delight in discovering them. Also known as the Art of the Question that leads to the Art of the Meow-time that follows :D
Relationships are difficult, Jim and i been together for 16yrs and been married 1yr now. We been through so much. But he is my soul mate and treats me like a queen.
Love. Love, Love this video! So insightful, helpful, and enlightening!
Lewis Howes and Matthew Hussey together are a breath of fresh air!
TRUE When surfing I was drawn in by a currant, I stayed calm and that current took me back safely to shore!
Lewis u have a nice smile ☺. You're face is glowing with energy all the time. You're so bubbly when you talk. Thanks!
Appreciate you! 🧡
I love this intelligent man!!

We need to stop this rat race, work less leave more, have funn, be more in nature, find who we really are, have time for anything we want to have time, introduce quality...
Yessss
You are absolutely right, Arzu Cowie :-)
Amen to that
Spot on guys! Such a great breakdown on this whole topic. And Lewis also always does the perfect job on questioning exactly what we're all thinking haha coupled with the perfect answers!
one thing i have learnt about men is they get attracted every moment they meet an attractive girl so at some point they must break your heart and they thing that you dont have the same feeling as a woman
Rejection for a woman is close to impossible to recover from. Smile and look friendly if you are interested in a guy. If he approaches, great, if not, you still have your heart intact.
I totally agree with Mathew, love at first sight doesn't exist,if you want a lasting relationship you have to invest on it. It never happens over time
I fell in love at first sight with my husband. We were married for 40 years till he passed away.
Great interviews! Thank you, Lewis and Matthew! Love your interviews! Learned a lot! God bless you for your hard and deep work!
Cant wait till you do it , your advice is incredibly insigtful based on the feedback from us who have done it , what you may underestimate is the damage done to people , and the massive complications from that damage interpersonal from one damaged person to another , it gets very hard as time goes by.
I actually think it's fun to approach a guy I find interesting every now and then. I think it's refreshing, it feels natural, and I mean, who cares about etiquette? I think it's better to just go with your gut and have fun. As long as you're being yourself, it's okay.
I only just started listening to you and I’m sure you already know why haha … but I love your story about the two builders …I feel so much more optimistic already … there is a lot to still learn but well … when better than now … better late than never 🥰
This was so helpful. I wanted to understand and relate to some of these things and concepts but had nothing to draw from. I do now. Thank you so so much.
I love these two guys...I could listen to them all day. "Music happens between the notes" was my favorite quote. The castle analogy was spot on. I'm not looking for a partner right now, just working on better myself and I realized that listening to them talk about love, relationships, etc is really enlightening and good advice to use on ANY relationship. At the end of the day the world functions because of the infinite relationships that ties every single organism in an invisible, intricate web of connections.
That last sentence though wow
👌👌👌
Well it doesn't hurt that they both look easy on the eyes 🤗
Well said
Well said, INDEED.
i love the castle building analogy and the drop the handkerchief hack, thanks!
Matthew always dropping gems. Please make a video on how to flirt with men without over stepping or appearing weird or awkward.
The castle and trash can analogies! 🤯 wow! Loved this thanks
The best teacher is through experience. And there's no perfect relationship you can find (fairytale vs reality) because we can only tell it at the end, if that is a perfect relationship.
True my experience alone already taught me what they are saying so when they say it now it resonates with me..it's not rocket science for me I thank God I will I allowed myself to go the experience route
How about moving to Costa Rica, and after a year he tells me that my kids aren’t welcome to be there(more of a vacation place). I decided to pack up and leave because he never tried any solution. Now he’s upset, he went through an angry spell, I had to tell him what I’d do as a man if I loved a woman. This is a unique situation that I’m not sure how to deal with. Giving it time until summer as I’m back in Canada.
So you never let go of that and put yourself in the moment of being with your woman. You have to learn to compartmentalize or as some people say let it go and enjoy what you're doing in that moment and when you go back to work let let it go and get fully engaged in the moment
The frustrating thing about putting in the effort and doing all these things is not doing it it's guys not putting in the same level of effort
Thanks to u and Hussey for sharing valuable information! Trash cans was a first one for me! I was thinking 💭 somebody has to pick up the stinky trash. Respect for them!
I really enjoyed and appreciate both of your explanations based on your experiences and valid thoughts about life, love and relationships. It'll really be beneficial for many of us.
Thank you so much for your kind efforts.
Love and respects from India
I give them a big warm smile , and they usually come over
Thank you Matt for making this crystal clear with the castle analology. I needed to hear this.
Lewis you did a great job of as an interviewer in reading your guest and just letting the guest go on and on and keeping a neutral response (especially during the trash cans part).
🧡

Valadation of Love is the Teaching process of Who U-R= If You Wasn't Validated as a Child You Look for it as an Adult. Be 🙌 😇 Blessed
What does that mean
Thank you Mathew and Lewis! Happy thanksgiving ‼️‼️I'm thankful for you both and what you talk about ❣️😊
Happy Thanksgiving too! 🧡
Is this an old video? This conversation sounds familiar 🤔
Yes. These are clips from old videos all put together.
I thought the same thing! I was like this isn't new! Hey I've seen this before.
200 years ago, a woman would purposely drop her handkerchief. Omg, Matthew just told the same story as i was typing this. Hilarious 😂
Bottom line, she has to help him out. ❤️❤️
2 of my favourite guys here. Adore you both.
Appreciate you! 🙏
I actually enjoyed this more than I thought I would
Thanks, Matt & Lewis. Needed just this = best off 😌 all Videos, danke!!
What an interesting video. So much Information! Was a pleasure to watch! Thank you for making it 🙏
You're welcome,thank you for being here 🧡
Pure wisdom :-) Thank you both :-) I follow you for years and can say this video is one of the best ever :-)
Thank you!
L
good morning i like your show it teach me a lot
Happy to hear this :)
I love it, I love that mindset honest, open.
I have learned so much educated myself this video is perfect ! I like the castle analogy it’s really something to think about often times women we just don’t know any better so we end up being taken advantage of and in fantasyland this video helps us not to be that way.
Love this compilation ❤️ Lewis, thank you for this, and for Matthews book! It has helped me so much with a few relationships of mine over these past few months 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I've never seen somebody say 'trashcan' with such a big smile on his face...disneyworld here I come
It’s all games but true chemistry is king
The plot of land analogy is brilliant!!
I’m glad I found him like over 7 yrs ago. It helped and he is correct on some things, I remember when he said watch out, what I tell you is dangerous Use what I say on good terms, or evil or something like that Haha I would love to see him in Australia. I learned to say hello to everyone or ask what time is it, directions somewhere, ask for their help or their opinion, show interest ask questions so many times someone has said why don’t you google it. I say I like asking people I learn more, I would never do long distance unless someone can move ASAP.
Omg 😱 i needed this 3 years ago thank you for every word
🧡
Great interview and Great listening abilities from the interviewer.
2020 Dating is like wild wild west lol, every one is doing monkey double flips and jumping from one branch to another.
Contact him on whatsaap...
🤣🤣🤣
Lmfao 🤣
Yes, they are talking as if there just normal, open, nice people out there going for a coffee because they want a relationship...They completely omit all the crazy ones, narcs, addicts, etc. You never know what you are going to get, you can only look at the outside.
We
This was great. Thank you!
This guy is a genius. Translating life.
He has Great Knowledge that I can learn.. Thank you both 🙏🙏
You're welcome, thank you for watching 🧡
What he is talking about they are all rightfully correct to all the things he is sayings I’ve seen and know that some would do things like that
Playing games teasing men To the point they’re recognized
Relevant and so real...and makes so much sense..thank u

My Mathew Hussey 🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🔥🔥🔥
Tambourine....genious
Excellent information for us all. Thankyou
You're welcome🧡
I don’t know if I should call myself lucky or unfortunate to have met exactly the type of guy they are talking about here 59:00 I’m in love with him and I kinda pushed him away cos it’s impossible not to fall head over heels for someone like this.
I am never alone and it' gets very minutnous I haven't figured out what I want n I do like my alone time I do not want to loose it what do I do without insulting anyone I've tryed various things nothing is getting threw
Lewis Howe's facial expressions in this video ahahaa.. he looks so genuinely mindblown xD
I disagree with the very first part of his answer...being a man does NOT discredit him at all. I digress.
I love listening to his wisdom and the wisdom of so many who society "deems" as "unqualified". 😃💯🙌
How about when the guy is always txting you you dont know his motives he is not courting the hirl but always like and heart your post and texting you thank you have a good day for almost one year.
Also respecting the other person too! We have all 4 & respect as well.
I would LOVE TO SEE a series for neurodivergent people. From both sides~ it’s a HUGE THING😊
Very enlightened! Thank you.
You're welcome,thank you for being here 🧡
Amazing what this guy is saying. Truly valuable
👍
Wow Lewis, You knocked it out of the park again....thank you so much 😊❤❤❤👍
🎶🥰Beautifully put, Lewis.😊🎶
Boldness comes in different stages in your life once it shows in earlier years of of teenage lives those are bullish people doesn't matter their girls or boys the nice guy will win always with his right approaches bold type and
