Are you actually ready for a committed relationship, or are you just lonely?
This Pride Month, Yo Aunteas are joined by elite gay dating coach and matchmaker Lamont White from betterwaytomeet.com to unpack the brutal truths behind the modern dating landscape. If you've been wondering why the dating pool feels impossible to navigate, this conversation is your ultimate reality check.
