I'm joined by Garin Flowers, writer, journalist, communications expert, and former Bachelorette contestant. We chat about how long you should wait to see if chemistry develops, how to talk about your values and dating goals on a first date, and whether or not a first-date kiss is a reflection on how the date actually went. Garin shares what he learned about dating and confidence from being on The Bachelorette, as well as how being a journalist has helped him navigate communicating on dates. We answer listener questions about moving in with your partner against your parents' wishes, dates ending after going deep, and always being the 5th wheel.
