Dating Daze Podcast

This episode we talk about our experiences with speed dating. Jeff and Mindy went to separate speed meet n' greet events. One a traditional sit down talk for 5 mins and move to the next one and one a speed mingling where your group chats for 10-15 mins then moves to a new group. Both great ways to meet that might lead you to the love of your life.

We talk to psychotherapist and dating-book author Marlisse Testa and get her advice on finding your next great relationship. Tips on making sure you're ready to date, first date/Meet n' Greet ideas and suggestions. Plus some great fun concepts to help make your next first date, your last first date. Marlisse Testa Look for her new book coming soon: "Stow Your Luggage When Dating"

You're on a first date and they mention their ex and you assume they're not over them...or they say they like skiing and you assume they won't date anyone that's not an avid skier...don't make assumption and judgements based on the limited information of a first date...also don't stand up someone or ghost them it's not nice...this and more on this episode.

A lot of men say they want a relationship and that's why they're dating...but do they reallly? Others...a lot of others...say they just want to get laid. In this episode we talk to Justin Adams a masulinity coach. He helps men figure out themselves first and what they want and then helps them get it. Super interesting!

When you first start back into dating you might get a little nervous when you first meet in person (the Meet n' Greet-MnG). But after 300 or so first dates, like Jeff and Mindy, you won't even blink...but hoping you'll only ever need a few dozen MnG's here's some things to ask but maybe more importantly some things to not ask.

You're dating or in a relationship and you're doing some things that you just don't want to tell your friends. Tell us! Anonymously or you can tell us your name but you'll probably feel better when you're done. Listen to this tale and you'll probably think your dates or relationship tales were really not that bad. Sex, crimes, stolen identities...all that and more.

Can men and women be friends? Just platonic, no sex, no romance, no possible hookups? Yes but usually the men want more...but it's possible. Give a listen and see if you agree...we even did some research about this topic...

In dating we often do or experience things we're a little, or a lot, embarrassed to tell others. In this episode two anonymous guests tell some dating and relationship stories to Jeff and Mindy that they don't tell to anyone, so they're telling everyone on a podcast. Maybe their stories will help you get over your embarrassment. Chairlift confessions came about because Jeff would hold out confessing to Mindy some of his dating tales until weeks after they happened and the story was usually told on a chairlift skiing.
