Modern dating sucks, but it shouldn't have to – and in fact, we can make it better, we know we can. We're catching up on what's been going on in the new year and re-airing an episode where we were guests on the podcast Seeing Other People with Ilana Dunn. We discuss the biggest mistakes that are happening in all our dating lives, how we can turn each date into a learning experience, and why it's important to focus on the positives when dating.

Follow Ilana @ilana.dunn and @seeingotherpeople and listen to Seeing Other People wherever you listen to podcasts

From being the "cool girl" to avoiding difficult conversations to blowing up when trying to DTR, we're unpacking more bad dating habits that we both had – that you probably do too. But this week, Julie is interviewing Yue about her dating history and how these behaviors got in her way – even today. We're discussing how dating games ended up being counterproductive, why bad dating behavior is often a self-protection mechanism, and how to continue to grow at any stage of a relationship.

We're turning the tables as we hear the full story of mismatched timelines, becoming "ready", and letting her love story unfold as we chat with Amy about the trials, tribulations, and triumphs of her relationship with Will (who you may remember from last season!). We discuss the challenges no one talks about with relationships, how to handle difficult conversations and situations when you two just aren't aligned, and how YOU stay the main character despite whatever is happening in your love life.
