Episode notes
Early Spark Can Mask Love Bombing
- Early signs like intense attention or fairy-tale dates can be love bombing rather than true availability.
- Matthew Hussey explains that the aftermath (how someone behaves over time) reveals whether early excitement was genuine or manipulative.
Test Momentum With Reciprocity
- Look for reciprocity and momentum: both people should sustain contact and initiative between dates.
- Ask whether they text to keep conversations going, set up the next date, or call when you prefer calls as concrete tests.
Bring Up Needs And Watch The Response
- Communicate needs and watch their reaction: an emotionally available person responds with a conversation, not punishment or withdrawal.
- If pointing out a small need ends the relationship or leaves you blaming yourself, it's a red flag of unavailability.
