S5E12: HE KEEPS SAYING NO, BUT SHE CAN’T LET GO

About this episode

Brianne seeks to understand the mixed signals from Mark, who has been clear about not wanting a committed relationship yet continues to engage with her.

No File 34-yr-old Brianne has been hung-up on 45-yr-old Mark for nearly 2 years.  Their relationship has run the gamut from friends to dating to FWB. Mark has been blunt, stating that he doesn’t want anything with Brianne – not even sex, yet he continues to see her and will occasionally agree to hook-up. Brianne comes back on Make Him Wonder to understand why Mark says one thing and does another, and find out what, if anything, she can do to try to get the committed relationship with Mark that she desires.
