Heartbreak is almost inevitable with love; or, at least it can be experienced in at least one capacity within the lifetime of love. Heartbreak occurs within breakups, miscommunication, and even in the grieving process. But why does heartbreak show love rather than its opposite? Find out with Prince Vince in this week's episode!

Prince Vince extrapolates the idea of head versus heart knowledge into dating and relationships, shedding light on the notion of passionate and rational love. When some individuals are looking for a relationship, they act solely out of their head knowledge, checking off boxes. It is important to have those standards but it starts with an internal reflection and zeal of becoming the person that other individuals deserves. One question of focus for this episode: Why does it appear you become pursued more often by others when in a relationship?

When one falls in love or begins to experience a deeper reality of love, that individual remains in that realm, receiving love to the fullest capacity. However, we are called as humans to step beyond this experience and share this love with the world. We cannot become complacent with the inpouring of love to ourselves, we must look outward and outpour these fountains of love to others. Love is contagious! It's time to go spread the joy and truth to all!

What is the best way to advise somebody? Is it about sharing the specific details and step-by-step processes to success? Or a combination of trusting the process and orienting ourselves to the end-goal. Advice should not be given as to portray the individual as a parrot or puppet, regurgitating information. Rather, the best way for advice is to assist and teach the other person to see the world from the other's perspective and to understand their vantage point.  

Prince Vince invites another guest on the podcast, another college friend Luke Utrie, to discuss the differences between casual (college) dating and intentional (real world) dating. Casual dating is for the purpose of being a relationship and dating while intentional dating is seeking fostering a relationship -- a staircase toward somewhere else.

Find out some of the main components of intentional dating - purpose, intentionality, and why -- as these and other topics are further developed and discussed in this episode.

Robert Frost's The Road Not Taken depicts a story of a man at a fork in the road. Taking one path versus the other has made all the difference in his life. This notion is often viewed as a positive but that is not explicitly stated in this poem however. In this episode, the moral of this story is extrapolated into the aspects of love. How is love like the road not taken or the road less traveled? What makes the difference in love? Find out in this week's episode of Love Hints by Prince Vince.

Karol Wojtyla, (later, St. Pope John Paul II) entitled a book "Love and Responsibility" in which he explains the forms of human love. In this episode, Prince Vince utilizes and expands on one of many profound quotes found within this text to illuminate the origins of responsibility for another within love. Having responsibility in love directly counteracts the societal notion of "relativism" or "you do you" mentality. Since, in love, we cannot separate ourselves from the other.

"The greater the feeling of responsibility for the person the more true love there is." - Karol Wojtyla (a.k.a., Pope John Paul II)

Talk of "red flags" in relationships signify the destructive aspects of people or relationships on a certain individual. However, this type of assessment fails to recognize the components of love that may still be present in the relationship despite these "red flags". Prince Vince formulates, based upon findings of the past week, that "green flags" should be sought after instead of these malicious "red flags". This episode is all about the colors of love -- when to stay, when to go, and when to tread lightly. 

As children, we pull petals off of flowers while repeating "They love me, they love me not." How does this sweet gesture point to a deeper meaning in love?? Find out with Prince Vince this week. In love, we allow the other person to share with us their feelings, their life, and their love (or lack thereof) rather than assuming with the petals of the flowers or even our hearts.

Each individual has a unique and personal experience of love. We may not have all the answers or the full-on definition of love, but we at least know when we are in that experience or have seen it unfold. Prince Vince uses Winnie the Pooh and Theodore Roosevelt quotes to emphasize that love is unique and full of care.
