Dating Dramas Ep.2 -- The Perils Of Awkward Silences: From Matthew Hussey, GetTheGuy

Hello, Matthew Hussie here from gettheguy.co.uk. I'm back again. I'm trying to get out these videos at the moment because I'm trying to do something a bit more, a bit over and above, and people have been responding in an amazing way to the first couple of videos that we've done in the last week or so. So I'm gonna try and keep getting these out to you in my schedule and try and have some fun with them, too. And I want to continue the theme that we started the other day with dating disasters. I'm thinking thinking of calling this dating drama, this section of the blog. If you have a better name for it, email it in and we'll consider it, okay? For now it will be called dating drama. If you have a better one, tell me. Before we start, a couple of bits of news. What's going on? I filmed with MTV this week. For those of you who didn't see the little behind the scenes video, I did that in Madam Tussauds. It was really cool actually. They closed the whole place for us. So we were literally in Madam Tussauds, no one there, walking around, having a bit of fun with all the celebs in there. It was really, really cool. You'll see that if you want to check it out, go on my blog and you should see a little video there where you can have a look. Other than that, the next date for MTV filming is on the 9th and that's in Ibiza, so that should be a lot of fun. I'm going out there for a couple of days to film that and I'll tell you more about the show as we go so that you can kind of keep up to date with it and find out what it's all about. What else? This weekend I have my Women's Weekend Program. A group of women come in to really transform their love lives. That's our intention. Intensive program should be amazing. For those of you who want to come see me live in next Saturday, I'm doing my one day leading event. So that's called the Secrets of Attraction. You can find it on the website, Secrets of Attraction. Come see me. If you really want to kick start your love life and get this handled, come see me there and we'll have some fun. So dating drama, okay? Since the first video we did where we talked about the situation last time, if you haven't seen that, go back and watch it. It's really good fun. We've been sent tons of these. Women have really responded well to these. I mean, you can see actually underneath this video or underneath the last video, we had a ton of Facebook shares, a ton of retweets for these videos. Keep doing that, because we're getting the word out and women are passing them around and having a lot of fun with them. So I want this to be the same as well. This week's story, I'm gonna read it to you. This one cracked us up. These were in no particular order, but this one cracked us up and I thought I'd use it for the second day in drama video. Hey Matt, your video is really awesome. I've learned a lot from them. The most valuable lesson I learned was not to take dating and relationships as this huge and serious thing in life, but as an exciting challenge. I must admit, I was and still kind of am that girl that would analyze a guy before even agreeing to go on a date with him. Needless to say, my dating life pretty much sucked. After I watched your videos and reading your emails, I tweaked my outlook slightly and reaped many rewards. So, I thought I would share my most recent dating story with you. Here we go. I met this guy for coffee and it was slightly awkward at first. We had that awkward silence moment and I never respond well to those moments. So, I blurted out, oh my God, look at that lady. She looks like she should be on a street corner. She had one of these really revealing outfits, one of the most revealing outfits I've ever seen. His reply, that's my sister. I went blood red, apologized like a maniac, and left. Now, we read this and we immediately cracked up, but then had to take a step back and ask ourselves that there's a couple of conclusions to draw from this story. One of them is that the guy had his sister on the date. Why was his sister on the date? In fact, why was his sister even in the vicinity of the area? Why was she even there? If he invited his sister on the date, I don't think it matters that you ran. I think that's okay. I think you maybe did yourself a favor. If, on the other hand, which I know many people are out there thinking, she was a little bit hasty, She called someone a prostitute and then he said that's my sister as a joke and she then ran off. I want you to imagine this scenario. The guy goes on a date, it's awkward to begin with, there's an awkward silence, she then calls someone a prostitute and leaves and literally runs off. This literally have been cracking up, I don't know what one it is. If you sent in this email firstly thank you because I think it's It's gold, whichever way you look at it, it's complete gold. Tell us if it really was his sister or not, because I thought it was hysterical. The moral of the story, if a date's not going well, pick out someone in the area, preferably a member of his family, and call them a prostitute, then run. Okay? That's the guys lesson for today. Amazing story. Keep sending them in. By the way, just a little tip, because we do do stuff on this, we do have content on awkward silences. If you're in an awkward silence, just relax. It takes two people to have an awkward silence, okay? So you don't have to be part of that awkward silence. Sit there, people watch, and then when you're ready, jump back in as if nothing ever happened, okay? That's the quick answer. So keep sending me your stories, keep sending me these dating drama stories. I love them. I'm gonna try and do them once a week, maybe once a week, maybe on a Friday. a bit of light relief before the weekend and hoping that people have dates on Friday and Saturday night so we can have a bit of light relief that puts you at ease before you go on a date. At least you can think, I can't do anything worse than that. Maybe you can, if you do, send it in. Also, I want to really encourage people to start commenting under these videos and have some fun with it. We're creating like a little bit of a community right now. I'm trying to really put the effort into doing this and just getting people really talking and having fun in their dating lives. We create a bit of a revolution into having more fun in our dating lives, taking it less seriously and really taking those steps to take more risks and make more happen. So I'm going to give you a question of the day and I really want you to answer it in the comments and give me your answer. The question for today is what's the best date location you've ever had? And I'm going to let's narrow it down to first dates. So what's the best What's the first date you've ever been on in terms of the location? Where did you go? What was it that you actually did? Leave it in the comments underneath. I'm gonna start getting these comments out quicker as well, 'cause I know some of you have been waiting for the comments to actually go up. I'm gonna make sure they go up straight away too, and I'm gonna try and respond to those comments wherever possible. Thank you for watching. Thank you for allowing me to be your coach to share these stories with you, and I will see you soon. Take care.
