I realized a huge truth about getting rid of loneliness that I didn’t mention in last week’s video.
Learn this simple-yet-powerful concept, and you’ll have an essential tool to create happy, meaningful relationships and feel connected again…

I’m afraid of being too vulnerable for the fear that the person (most often a guy I like) will think that I’m a push-over.
Also, I’ve been noticing over the last few years or so that more and more people are sad and depressed. So, if I say something sad and depressing to them it’ll make them feel even worse, so, I try to always be positive and upbeat, even if I don’t necessarily feel that way.
So I’m not sure how to reconcile these feelings and thoughts. Any ideas?
Wow Matthew I always liked you. I could feel your positive energy and deep desire to help people. It is great to see you drop down another layer in that quest!
I will be sending you a letter soon that might assist in you taking this deeper still.
Hi every one !
The video is great and inspiring as always. I feel a little ashamed to admit but I also loooooooooooooooooooooved the mix Matthew hussey/Jon Snow thing ^^ It distracted me a moment I had to go back in the video to catch what he was talking about back then.
I’m also super happy to discover there are also French girls following him !! OMG if you re living in Paris and are single we should totally go out together to practice his technics !!!
Matthew, I’m a huge fan! It’s been three years.I dont even know to express the respect and tender I developped for you.
So I will just wish you a great week to come.
You’re doing good.

ps. I am almost finished with the book called 7 Keys to Connection.
I so wish it were done and I could send it to all your people hurting. It is a very close look at the roots of this disconnection both culturally and in our personal histories. It then offers so much understanding, tools and processes to help shift the deeply held issues with in.
I so wish I could share all the insights and practices in the book with all the beautiful people feeling their loneliness right now.
Nice word of loneliness
Hello Matthew!
This was great I hope to maybe get a response from this question, you said vulnerability was one of the cures. One of the ladies who said she feels alone when she asks her S.O. a serious question, but he doesn’t want to talk about it isn’t she being vulnerable? What could she do differently other than self-worth?
I really appreciate the work that you do and the people you have helped, including me!
Thank you Matthew. I’m new to watching your videos, but they’ve already helped a great deal. I look forward to each one.
Just wanted to say how much I enjoy your videos. Relationships are so important to each and everyone of us and we’re struggling so hard sometimes … I won’t take the ones I have for granted and will do something nice today to have those guys I love know that I love them. Thank you!
Hi Matthew,
Love your videos lately. This topic of lonlieness is extremely important. I think it’s important to recognize what you said about it not necessarily being cured by being around people. Lately I started my new training for becoming a marriage and family therapist and I’m seeing my own clients. While I’m finally doing what I’m so passionate about and it feels surreal, I’ve met even more amazing people, but my days are long with training, another job, and school. I’m doing what I love but I’m so busy all the time and so exhausted I am feeling lonely. I don’t have a partner and while I have many friends I’m either too tired to go out or their schedules don’t match mine well anymore. I want to just be grateful and know this is a temporary busy period while I’m building my career, but it can be difficult!
I hope that anyone who reads this, and still feels lonely, can find a little piece of sunshine from my comment. I am sending happy thoughts your way… even if we don’t know each other, I care! Being lonely can hurt, but you have the power to turn it to a special time and learn about the beautiful you that you are and explore what really makes you happy! Here’s to you!
I don’t usually comment on your videos although I’ve found everyone to be very helpful in so many ways. Last weeks video was very special to me because loneliness is an issue I’ve struggled with all of my life and has always caused me to turn to harmful behavior especially in relationships because I’ve accepted a lot from men in order to avoid loneliness as it’s an emotion that truly terrifies me. Last week I watched your video over and over, and nights when I might have cried myself to sleep or reached out to an individual who would inevitably hurt me, I found strength in your words and reassurance that I could overcome my loneliness and in some ways and at the right times embrace it. Thank you for that, I’m so grateful.
Thank you Matthew for your initial post regarding loneliness and this follow-up. Hearing you speak and the comments and voices of others has helped me greatly … I’ve been trying to make an effort to embrace my loneliness and grow from it, although I struggle to not fall into suffering. But your messages remind me I’m not alone. And thank you to all who have shared their messages and shared their own feelings.
Harry Potter meets Jon Snow… awesome! Are you going to wear that watching the finale tonight? Lol. ;)
Vulnerability is key… but not always easy to do. Something to practise every day. Brené Brown talks about this in her work… “Vulnerability is the core of shame and fear and our struggle for worthiness, but it appears that it’s also the birthplace of joy, of creativity, of belonging, of love.” That always blows my mind, because it’s true and I can certainly see my self in it.
You are amazing. You post videos and send me emails that directly synchronize with my current vibration and answer the questions I have in mind. I’m sure many other people feel the same so I just want to say …CONTINUE ON THE PATH YOU ARE ON! You are beautifully affecting the world around you while inspiring life.
This video was Vansite phone I just hope one day I get the chance date nice man.
It’s very hard for me to get out and guys don’t really reach out to me. I have a disability (cp)
Nephew please read my comment!
“Vulnerability is a standard” I love this.. seems we are guarded more as a standard. But true to form, vulnerability is the only way to meaning and meaningful interactions..
Very good insight. I felt lonely a lot in my marriage. Now that I’m single I try to keep engaged in my gym and a social group. I actually feel less lonely now. But the real key is learning to like yourself and being okay by yourself sometimes
Hello matthew, i m not quite sure wether or not you will be reading this but, i would like to tell you that i have discovered that people are indeed able to change or affect others tremendously,we can help if we only showed kindness and love,be it a smile or a simple word, we can help people achieve themselves.I specifically appreciate that you made me think twice about relationships.I was able to get through a lot by understanding why people do what they do, and once you have this kind of knowledge you no longer suffer as badly.I was told many times that I m lonely because my standards are too high , but the fact is m not going to settle!I know what I deserve and I thank you for constantly reminding us to keep fighting.
I would also like to think that you actually care about people and their happiness and you want to make a change in the world, and not just for the sake of money. For that i tell you, i admire your perseverance goodness,and enthusiasm! God bless you !
hi, Matt, i’m a guy from Italy wich love to watch your videos. Sorry if my english is not so good but i’ll try to explain myself anyway. I wanna first truly thank you for your videos, that helped me thousand times in difficult moments, and then i wanna tell you my experience. I’m 25 years old this year, and it’s almost a year that i came out of a relationship and that thing has destroyed me in multiple ways. I was worrying a lot about my work, and try my best to give her all the time i could but i was really tired after my long days and she couldn’t keep up with it. She didn’t believed in my work (i’m a musician). Now that i lost her i truly want my work to worth the loss, but it’s always difficult and that lend me to a lack of confidence. I had some occasions to love someone but in certain way i feel empty, and after 5 years of relationship i can’t find a way to restart my love life or to completely move on. I’m really closing up emotionally, i’ve got friends but i can’t connect to them i a way i can be less lonely. I miss all that little things that i truly loved and now i have lost forever. I find myself sleep for the most of my free time to evade my mind thinking bad things, and i’m phisically, emotionally, and mentally tired. I’m starting to feel used to be lonely, but i don’t like it, expecially when i see someone that has what i have lost. I’m starting to think that i couldn’t find what i’m looking for, sometimes i think that i couldn’t be happy anymore. Please, give me some advices, i feel really lost.
Gabry
