This week's question comes from Sue:
Dear Orna and Matthew,
I need your help.
We dated for 6 years; we had our ups and downs but always managed to get past them. I noticed his feelings shifting in December. He pulled back a little but we got past that and we're making plans for the up coming months.
Then February 13 out of nowhere he ended things. I tried to get back with him but he seems totally uninterested. Just recently when I reached out he seemed to soften a bit, but still has not made any move to contact or see me.
I'm at a loss. I see him in my future but I do not know what to do, every program says I should not contact him nor should I tell him

Topic: Heal Your Heart
Can I change who I attract?
This week's question comes from Milike:
Hi Orna and Matthew,
Whenever I start being more intimate in a relationship and want to get more connected and more intimate they leave me without a real reason. I know that they like me but they don't want to have a relationship. Maybe I don't see the red flags maybe I'm not in my feminine energy (I am working on that).
I have a question if you can answer. I think I feel not good enough, not worthy of love and I don't trust the flow of the relationship. My father wasn't there for me to solve my problems and show me the solutions when I was a child; my mother was doing that for me. I don't know if this is the reason but

Can we just be friends?
This week's question comes from Michelle:
Hi Orna and Matthew,
My heart is so full of gratitude and love for the advice I am receiving from you.
I enjoy reading or listening to them again and again, so insightful and good.
I am 43 and single parent, was married before and now annulled.
I have a question that is bugging my mind. I met a man and fell in so madly in love with him. We became lovers but he broke up with me when he learned I was having a conversation with a guy on Facebook. It has been 5 months after the break up and that time, there was communication, as he wanted us to remain friends. I agreed as the pain was unbearable. Also, I am

7 Years – No Itch!
Hello Love On Purpose Community!
Today is our 7-year wedding anniversary so we decided to mix things up and instead of answering one of your questions today, we decided to share our “secrets” with you.
Often times we are surprised to hear from our friends that they think our relationship is EASY! They want what we have…
The truth is that it was very easy in the beginning. We had both transformed our blocks to love, cultivated discernment through the dating process, and were on the search for an ideal match.
Every relationship needs the SPARK of attraction and that chemical high we call “The Romance Stage” in order to create longevity in relationship. It’s like

Is it time to just give up?
This week's question comes from Traci:
Hello Orna and Matthew,
Thank you in advance for answering my question. I’ve been struggling with this for a while and don’t know what to do.
I have had a tendency to start relationships with unavailable men, so I am trying to stop that, but is there just a point where you have to give up? When you live in a remote area where you are involved in just about every thing you can be and still have no ability to meet anyone, is it just time to give up?

Dear Traci,
Thanks for reaching out to us and we hear the desperation that you are feeling. It can be hard when it seems like no matter what you do, you can’t meet

Why do I fall in love so quickly?
This week's question comes from Emma:
"Dear Orna and Matthew,
I love reading your notes and believe that you give the best dating advice online. I hope you can help me! I am tired of struggling to find love.
Here is my question:
Why do I fall in love so quickly when I find a man fancies me?
I skip over all the stages of examining if the man is right for me, and dive right into the stage of being in a relationship. And once I am in a relationship, I just get too focused in it, and too ignorant to other parts of my life instantly. I need help."
