Matthew
Hussey, for those late discoverers (like me), is a dating expert who coaches
millions of women. Thousands at live events, millions online. And he really has
the correct answer to everything.
Now, don’t
raise your eyebrows at the phrase “dating expert” or “dating coach.” He knows his stuff, and has a knack of
disclosing that knowledge in a very fun and sincere way.
And trust me, having
only liked He’s
Just Not That Into You (and What
The Hell Is He Thinking for why he is not) as far as any dating tip
(collection) is concerned, I am very picky. I’ve been there, done that, heard
it all. Or so I thought.
I first
heard about the dude through a Glamour article.
The writer said that she was sent to the event to bust his bubble, but was so impressed
by what she saw that she decided to write a piece about getting a guy in 7
days, with guidelines from Matthew Hussey of course.
Now, while it was a fun piece and made me wonder if the guy was nearly that good, it was just easier to assume the writer got lucky.
Nevertheless,
I googled him and decided to check his
website. It turned out he was a life coach, not just a dating coach. After
watching one of his live events entirely, I decided that he was a damned good
one at that. But more on that later.
His dating
advice website Get the Guy
looked decent enough in design, but even with all the credentials (he has been
featured on NBC, CNN, The Independent…), I still thought he would be all hyped.
Hell, I was ready to bail the moment I detected tips on game playing. Well, he
did no such thing. (If anything, he is against game playing. And makes a point
of showing why playing hard to get has never worked.)
So then I
went on to watch the sales video of The
Man Myth. Now, it is a sales page that actually sells. And what he offers
is the video (online) of a live event where he covers a lot from meeting
different men to scoring dates, from getting to see following dates to managing
relationships. It also includes a 14-day free trial for the more detailed
stuff. And it is $29.95.
So yes, I
bought it. If it'd turned out to be disappointing, I would have had material to write
for the blog. As it turned out, I got so much material for pretty much
everything, including answers to any question I’ve ever had about dating and
guys.
None of the
links I used are affiliate links by the way. I just really liked what I saw.
Here’s some of the stuff I found out:
*Why I
attract so many guys I don’t want to attract (the one I was most curious
about!)
*How that
not-so-pretty girl could land that gorgeous, nice and successful guy
*Why taking
risks is important
*Why you
have to risk rejection, but how you can minimize the chances
*How to
meet anyone
*How to
make the first move without making it seem that way
*Why some
things worked and many things didn’t.
*Men and
women are from the same planet. We just have different languages.
*Why
couples love hanging out with couples, and how it is not productive for the
singles to socialize with them all the time
*How to
make yourself understood without ever having to fight or losing your temper.
*Why the
best-looking guys might not be the hardest to approach
*Why any of
your excuses (your looks, age, location….you name it) are not valid. (and I
believed I had some pretty good ones!)
…..and a
whole lot more.
You might
think you know the answers, but trust me, you don’t. Not for the most part. And
even when you do know the answers, you learn about why you can’t seem to put
that into practice, and how you can go about applying them with success.
And you
know how I know that he’s right? Because I did some of the stuff he said in the
past, sometimes consciously and sometimes not, and it all worked. I just didn’t
do it enough.
His video
is bound to kick your ass into gear. Because throughout, he proves that he
knows what he’s doing over and over again. And it is so much fun. This is coming
from someone who actively avoids any training/how-to videos. Seriously. They
bore me. I would rather go through an e-book at my own speed, skipping if there
is anything irrelevant or boring. Well, he doesn’t say anything irrelevant or
boring.
And he
practices what he preaches, and he looks the part. He’s good-looking and very
cute, confident but not arrogant, funny and blunt but never obnoxious. It
sounds like the kind of guy you’d like to date, right? Someone who knows what
they are doing, approachable and friendly.
Trust me,
Matthew supports my line of thinking. Just listen to how he picked his fitness
coach.
And the
best part is? You don’t have to hire him as a life coach to learn a lot more
than how to manage your dating life.
Just watch
his event, and you can learn about how to:
-Be a great
public speaker
-How to
build your brand
-How to
start and manage your own successful business
And if you
are a blogger, you can learn about promotion, design, brand consistency, using
video and so on. I should make a whole other post on this for my writing blog.
Bored with
my praises? You don’t think he is worth it? Go try it, and we’ll talk then.
He’s Just Not That Into You is a good resource. But it fails to tell you why he is not
just that into you. And how he could have been.
And if you
don’t want to spend $29.95 right away, just go through his blog posts, watch a
couple of his videos. Trust me, you’ll want more.
