Rust Belt Love

Samantha's friend and dating mentor, Amy, shares her very positive experiences using Match.com.

With Amy's coaching Samantha updates her profile and is inspired to get back out there.

After revisiting past conversations regarding in-car selfies and children in dating profile photos (and news from our Episode 4 guest!), Samantha and Cathy discuss some other ways to meet fellow singles if you want to take a break from the dating apps--matchmakers, dating coaches, speed dating, getting fixed up by friends and making use of other apps such as Meetup.com.
