In this insightful discussion, relationship coach Hazem Salah explores how a man’s behavior shifts when he develops feelings for a woman. Does he change for the better or worse? Some men play positive "games" like giving attention and quality time, while others resort to deception, like pretending to have a different lifestyle. But after all the effort, what if the woman only sees him as a brother or friend? Hazem Salah also delves into the pain of rejection in relationships—why it hurts, how to minimize its impact, and why rejection can happen at any stage, even after marriage. He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness before entering a relationship, encouraging both partners to evaluate their compatibility in terms of culture, social status, and personal needs.
