Seeing Other People

We have a solo episode this week! I’m sharing what has been upsetting me about modern dating and what I would do to change it if I had a magic wand. Later, I answer listener questions about whether or not we are limiting ourselves off by having specific things we’re looking for in a person, how to navigate having feelings for your best friend, and what to do when someone comes back two weeks after ending it.

I’m joined by Taylor, a 24 year old woman living in Los Angeles who shares her experience dating with chronic health issues. Taylor’s life was turned upside down 2 years ago in a matter of 24 hours when she started experiencing what she now knows is long-COVID. Taylor opens up about dealing with her loss of identity, struggling to do certain physical activities on dates, having to reschedule dates because she’s not feeling well, and when/how to explain her diagnosis to someone new.

Sam Panitch and Joey Lane are here to provide the male perspective on your burning dating questions and confusing scenarios. Sam and Joey share what they wish they could change about modern dating along with misconceptions women have about men when it comes to finding love. We answer listener questions about liking thirst traps on Instagram, why he likes your stories but doesn’t text you back, how long it takes for a guy to know if he wants something serious with you, if guys and girls can just be friends, and the best and worst questions asked on dates. Sam and Joey share whether or not they want a girl to text them thank you after a date, if it’s okay for a girl to text a guy first, and what it means if they take a long time to text you back. We discuss reconnecting with exes, how to tell if you’re being strung along, what to do if they don’t know what they’re looking for, and more.

Unfiltered: Anonymous joins the podcast to share her healing process from being cheated on, including what steps she took to recover and what finally led her to getting back out there. We hear how she meets her next boyfriend, how he's the polar opposite from her ex, and what green flags he gave off. She share how the relationship unfolds, suspicions she has along the way that he may be cheating, how he reassures her that he isn't, and why she stays. We talk about going through someone's phone, how many times can you give someone the benefit of the doubt, and why being cheated on is not about you. Lastly, we discuss how she's come to terms with her past but doesn't believe that just because her two exes have cheated on her does not mean that every other person she dates will.

We kick off the episode with some of this week's dating wins and an update on my wedding venue search! Then I'm joined by Carly Silverman to answer your questions about if it's still okay to ask someone to facetime before a date (and how to pop the q), when is the right time to move in with your partner, accepting a missed connection, what to do if you're talking to a bad texter, how to move on when you wish things hadn't ended, what to do if you're still thinking about your ex, and more.

I'm joined by a 28-year-old man who shares the story of a short-lived but very intense dating experience that lead him down a path of self-discovery and growth. We hear how their connection was off to a great start on the apps, how it felt like they've known each other forever on their first date, and how they each had a "second date curse" and "third date curse" that they wanted to overcome. He opens up about why she ended it, the feedback she gave, and what mistakes he made that he was able to see in hindsight. He shares his therapy journey, what he's learned, and how he plans to approach dating differently in the future.

Carly Silverman is back on the pod to help me answer listener questions! We talk about why we're so frustrated by influencers making grand statements about how much sex you should be having, why we always question “what’s wrong with me,” how we get so in our heads and make wrongful assumptions, accepting that not everyone is going to like you, how to stay positive when you keep losing hope from the dating world, and more.
