How to Stop Wasting Time with the Wrong People - Emotional maturity with Jonathan Aslay
Build emotional maturity and the real skills for long term success in dating for life.
Most people treat dating like a lottery; swipe, hope, repeat.
Jonathan Aslay lost $2 million, his marriage, and his son. What saved him wasn't positive thinking. It was asking one brutal question: "What happened in your marriage?"
Not to judge. To observe. Because how someone talks about their ex reveals everything about their emotional maturity. Self-love isn't bubble baths and affirmations. It's having the spine to walk away from someone hot but emotionally stunted. It's recognizing that your body screams "yes" while your values whisper "run."
Chemistry is a drug. Compatibility is architecture. Most relationships fail because people confuse the two.
You'll learn:
-
The exact question that exposes emotional immaturity in 30 seconds
-
Why chemistry without shared values guarantees failure
-
How to interview dates without sounding like HR (and why you should)
Stop wasting months on people who were wrong from day three.
