Does the first date tell you all you need to know, signs of a good first date, spotting the red flags early on and not romanticizing the outcome too quickly. In this episode we dive into dating, Janani's personal first date stories, awkward first dates and the 5 green flags to spot. Dating is not easy, putting yourself out there is not easy and bad dates are plenty. But at least we get to share our misery here on the podcast and laugh (while secretly cry) about the worst part of finding love.

Dealing with an ‘almost relationship’, knowing what you’re looking for, players playing the ‘potential game’ and mediocre sex. It's the big V day and I'm here to eat my metaphorical box of chocolates in front of the TV, crying my eyes out and realizing that I'll never know true love. Have you also found yourself in one or many 'almost relationships'? Been cucked by 'players' leading you on with the potential game? Settled for mediocre sex? Let's talk about the 2 month free trial that is an 'almost relationship' when you're like me and looking for the lifetime subscription.

I'm not afraid of putting a label on us - heyy girlfriend! Welcome to the first episode of our long committed relationship. We're at a cafe, chatting like girlfriends do, gossiping, complaining, learning and sharing stories to feel validated. We have a lot of ground to cover so let me kickstart by telling you what this podcast is going to be about, who I, Janani (your host), am and how we're here to feel a little less alone, and a lot more seen.
