There’s a big difference between wanting someone and wanting their attention.

The tricky part is that they can feel almost identical in the beginning.

Here are 6 signs you may be more interested in being wanted than in the person themselves:

➡️ You want them more when they pull away.

When they’re available, you’re unsure. When they become distant, suddenly you’re much more invested.

➡️ You think more about whether they like you than whether you actually like them.

You’re tracking their interest instead of paying attention to your own.

➡️ The chase feels better than the connection.

The flirting, anticipation, and uncertainty are exciting. The actual relationship? Not nearly as much.

➡️ Your attraction fades once you know they’re interested.

Sometimes the uncertainty was creating more chemistry than the person was.

➡️ You’re focused on impressing them instead of getting to know them.

You care a lot about what they think of you, but you’re not asking enough about whether you genuinely enjoy who they are.

➡️ You want the validation more than the reality.

The texts, attention, flirting, and reassurance feel good. But when you picture actually dating them, the excitement isn’t quite the same.

I see this pattern a lot in dating.

Someone can occupy a huge amount of your attention without actually being someone you’d be happy with.

You shouldn't just be asking, “Do they like me?”

You also need to ask, “Do I actually like them?”

One of the hardest parts of matchmaking isn’t finding my clients great matches.

It’s watching them talk themselves out of a good connection before it ever gets a real chance.

I see it in a lot of different ways:

They pull away as soon as things start feeling vulnerable.

They overanalyze every interaction.

They expect certainty or perfection immediately.

They compare someone new to an ex.

Or they decide something is wrong before there’s actually enough information to know.

Most people don’t become guarded for no reason. Past relationships and disappointment can make self-protection feel smart.

But there’s a point where protecting yourself from the wrong person can also keep you from recognizing a good one.

If every possibility gets filtered through fear, even the right person can start feeling wrong.

09/02/2026

You can be wildly attracted to someone and still know they wouldn't be good for you.

Sometimes the chemistry is real. But the reason behind it? Questionable.

Here are 6 signs you may be attracted to them for all the wrong reasons:

➡️ You want them more when they pull away.

The less available they become, the more interested you get. When they’re actually consistent with you, some of the excitement disappears.

➡️ You’re more hooked on being chosen than on who they actually are.

You spend a lot of time wondering whether they like you, but not nearly as much asking whether you genuinely like them.

➡️ Most of the attraction lives in the chase.

The uncertainty, flirting, mixed signals, and anticipation feel incredible. But when you picture an ordinary Tuesday night together? Suddenly there’s not much there.

➡️ You’re filling in a lot of blanks.

You don’t know them particularly well yet, but your brain has already built a very impressive version of them from a handful of great moments.

➡️ They check the exciting boxes, not the important ones.

They’re gorgeous. Charming. Confident. Maybe exactly your “type.” But when it comes to kindness, consistency, or whether your lives actually fit together… you’re doing a lot of overlooking.

➡️ The intensity is doing most of the work.

You feel butterflies, obsession, anticipation, and assume that must mean the connection is special. But attraction and compatibility are two very different things.

None of this means the attraction isn’t real.

It just means being incredibly drawn to someone isn’t the same thing as being a good match for them.

And unfortunately, chemistry shouldn't get the final vote.

Have you ever been incredibly attracted to someone you knew was completely wrong for you?

09/02/2026

Dating apps didn’t just give us more options. They changed what we call a “standard.”

There’s a difference between having high standards and having a very specific wish list.

Your standards should probably involve things like character, values, honesty, emotional maturity, and how someone actually treats you.

But somewhere along the way, dating got incredibly specific.

He has to be over 6 feet.
She has to look a certain way.
They need the right job, lifestyle, hobbies, aesthetic, social presence...

And when you can swipe through hundreds of people, it becomes really easy to believe there’s always someone who checks one more box.

Preferences are fine. Attraction matters.

But if a superficial preference automatically eliminates someone who could otherwise be a fantastic match, it might be worth asking:

Is that actually one of your standards, or just something you got used to filtering for?

Pulling back after flirting doesn’t always mean someone changed their mind.

Sometimes they realize they just made their interest a little too obvious… and immediately try to put the genie back in the bottle.

Here are 6 signs they may like you even though they pull back after flirting:

➡️ They get noticeably more casual right after a flirty moment.

There’s obvious chemistry, a compliment, lingering eye contact, or a little teasing, and then suddenly they’re acting like absolutely nothing happened.

➡️ They create distance…but never actually disappear.

They may back off for a minute, but they still respond. They still find reasons to talk to you. They still keep themselves somewhere in your orbit.

➡️ They watch to see what YOU do next.

After flirting, they may become less obvious and wait. Do you initiate? Flirt back? Move closer? Their next move may depend on whether they think the interest is mutual.

➡️ The flirting keeps coming back.

They pull away, things become normal again…and then another flirty moment happens. If this cycle keeps repeating, the attraction probably didn’t vanish between Tuesday and Thursday.

➡️ They seem more confident when you give them reassurance.

A compliment, some extra attention, or you initiating contact can suddenly bring the warmer version of them right back.

➡️ Their behavior around you never becomes completely neutral.

Even when they’re trying to tone things down, there’s still extra attention. Extra eye contact. Nervousness. Teasing. Little reasons to stay near you.

Of course, someone pulling back can also mean exactly what it looks like: they’re no longer interested.

But if they pull back and then repeatedly find their way back toward you, that’s a very different pattern.

Dating dealbreakers aren’t just about smoking, kids, religion, or where you want to live anymore.

For a lot of singles, worldview has become part of compatibility too.

And that makes sense.

You don’t have to agree on every issue. But if two people see the world in completely different ways, that can affect a lot more than what they talk about at dinner.

It can show up in:

➡️what they value
➡️how they make decisions
➡️what kind of future they want
➡️what they’re willing to compromise
➡️and what they absolutely aren’t

As a matchmaker, I’ve watched this become a much bigger part of what people screen for before they ever agree to a first date.

The hard part is figuring out the difference between a real values mismatch and simply expecting someone to think exactly like you.

How much agreement do you think a couple actually needs?

08/31/2026

Nobody wants to make a move and find out they completely misread the situation 😅

So when someone likes you but isn’t sure you like them back, they may do a lot of waiting, testing, and very subtle flirting instead.

Here are 7 signs that might be happening:

➡️ They light up when YOU initiate.

They may hesitate to reach out first, but the second you do? Suddenly they have plenty to say.

➡️ They keep finding reasons to be around you.

Another question. Another joke. Another excuse to stay in the conversation just a little longer.

➡️ They watch your reaction when they flirt.

A compliment lands, and immediately they’re watching to see how you took it.

➡️ A little encouragement changes everything.

You compliment them, initiate plans, or give them some extra attention, and suddenly they’re much bolder.

➡️ They’re VERY curious about your dating life.

Not enough to flat-out ask if you like them, of course. That would be too easy.

➡️ They flirt... then suddenly act casual.

They give you a little something, then back off before they’ve made themselves too obvious.

➡️ They match your energy.

You move closer, they move closer. You pull back, they pull back. They may be waiting for proof that taking the next step won’t end in embarrassment.

One of these things means very little.

But several of them together?

They may be waiting for you to give them a sign 👀

Have you ever found out someone liked you and thought, “HOW was I supposed to know that?”

08/30/2026

“Everyone tells me I deserve better.”

Maybe you do.

But if every relationship keeps ending in the same place, reassurance alone probably isn’t going to help you get a different result.

Good friends naturally want to protect your feelings. They hear what happened, take your side, and remind you of everything you deserve.

A matchmaker has a different job.

Sometimes that means asking harder questions.

What are you choosing repeatedly?
What are you overlooking?
What happens when someone doesn’t fit the picture you had in your head?
And is there anything you could do differently next time?

The goal isn’t to assign blame.

It’s to figure out what actually gives you a better chance at the relationship you want.

08/30/2026

Not all flirting looks like obvious compliments or bold moves.

Here are 6 signs someone may be flirting with you without making it obvious:

➡️ They find small reasons to keep the conversation going.

They ask one more question, send one more message, or somehow turn a quick interaction into a much longer one.

➡️ They tease you in a way that feels different from everyone else.

There’s a little extra attention behind it. An inside joke, playful challenge, or comment that seems designed specifically to get a reaction from you.

➡️ They remember tiny things you’ve mentioned.

Something you like, a story you told once, where you were going that weekend. They’re paying closer attention than casual conversation usually requires.

➡️ They give you compliments that don’t sound like compliments.

Instead of simply saying you look good, they notice something specific about your style, personality, humor, or the way you do something.

➡️ They create little moments of one-on-one attention.

Even in a group, they keep turning back to you, checking your reaction, or finding opportunities to talk to you separately.

➡️ They leave the door open for you to flirt back.

A playful comment. A lingering look. A casual “we should do that sometime.” Nothing that forces the issue, just enough to see what you do with it.

One of these could just be friendliness.

But when several keep happening with the same person, the flirting may be a lot more intentional than it looks.

08/30/2026

Knowing the language is not the same thing as changing the behavior.

Someone can know their attachment style, talk about boundaries, recognize their triggers, and use all the right words about emotional safety…

…and still avoid difficult conversations, shut people out, refuse accountability, or repeat the same relationship patterns.

The language can be incredibly useful.

But it’s supposed to help you understand yourself well enough to do something differently — not give you more sophisticated ways to explain why you don’t have to.

Pay less attention to how well someone can describe healthy relationships.

Pay attention to how they actually behave when a relationship gets uncomfortable.
