Another round of quick and dirty dating advice! We talk about whether dating is mostly luck, what to do in those moments when you miss being with someone, but most importantly: My BF keeps stealing my food after insisting he's not hungry, wat do? Not Lilly and Not Julio go deep on this last one, mentioning healthy boundaries and the importance of a balanced diet. 

Some say meeting people at bars is no longer a thing, while others are meeting people at bars. In this episode, we give some tips on which bars to pick, how to get to know people and start conversations, and the unexpected benefits of becoming a part of the community. 

Adult sports leagues are a great place to meet people in real life. And don't worry, they don't have to be traditional competitive sports (for example: did you know there are mini golf leagues? we sure didn't).

It's all about the drinks before and after anyway, so in this episode we'll give you some good suggestions for finding a sports league that is in-line with your interests as well as for enjoying yourself along the way. 

Now that you've started attending meetup events, you may have noticed that some lead to socialization more than others. With so many groups and events out there, it's hard to know what to pick given your interests and desire to meet like minds. In this episode, we talk about how to browse for meetups, picking events that will lead to interesting conversation, and we even go over some of the groups and events we've liked so far. 

In this episode, we insist on continuing to talk about how to meet people out in the real world. In this case, by attending meetups using meetup.com! (not a sponsor btw). This episode focuses less on finding the right meetups (future episode btw) and more on getting started. We'll talk about living with the pre-event jitters, not talking yourself out of going, and wtf to do once you're actually there, among other things.

Sometimes it's much easier to assess chemistry in real life instead of through dating apps, so we are kicking off a new episode series that'll walk you through how to meet people in the real world. 

But before we get into specifics, let's go over some ground rules to keep in mind whenever you go out into the world (whether it's bars, meetups, etc.) Things like being assertive, the importance of surrendering expectations, having fun with the process, and more.

Lilly is wondering if some of the dating advice aimed at women is actually valid or just another dead end. She asks Julio to give his thumbs up (or thumbs down) on specific advice about how to effectively attract men (spoiler: some of it is solid, some of it is way off). 

Instead of going deep on one or two questions, we're giving some very quick-and-dirty advice on as many questions as we can fit in a 20 minute episode. Is it ok for someone to have multiple pics with the same person? I like him but he's in a frat what do I do? I'm taller than her but she says I'm not tall enough? We solve these and other world problems. 

Boundaries are the new black, everyone. They’re sexy, they’re useful, you need them and you can wear them past labor day! In this episode, we discuss the obvious as well as the less evident benefits of boundaries when out in the dating scene. Emotional health, increased attraction, better compatibility matching, and more...

After being married and losing their spouse, this person found what they feel was a deeper love with someone new. Their new relationship is over, however, and this person wonders if they will ever find such a deep connection again, while also wrestling with guilt over not having felt as deep a love for their former spouse or other people in their past. Lots of advice on this one.
