Not having the best luck meeting people on dating apps? This episode is all about other ways you can put yourself out there and find love. Whether it be the comment section of a post on any platform, through TikTok (Jonah’s favorite dating app), sliding into the DMs, or finding love on Club Penguin (Ilana’s pick), it’s not all about dating apps. Our listeners chime in to tell us about their experiences meeting people via email, Instagram DM, and from a TikTok video. We discuss the right ways to approach people on all different platforms so you can set yourself up for success. Later, we change gears to meeting someone IRL– in an elevator to be specific, as we sit down with Ilana’s good friend and former FWB, Alex. Ilana and Alex share their story of their transition from friends, to friends with benefits, to a situationship that took them on a European "honeymoon," all the way to a potential relationship, and finally to a friendship-ruining spiral. We dive into the nuances of friends with benefits, whether or not it’s possible to go from FWB to a relationship, and if you can be FWB without ruining the friendship.
