It's Not Me, It's You

Dating apps aren’t just awkward anymore… they’re kinda dark.

In this episode, Matt breaks down his real-life experiences on dating apps...from sketchy situations to straight-up fraud, and why “trust, but verify” isn’t paranoia, it’s survival.

  • The illusion of safety on dating apps

  • Red flags that show up way too late

  • When giving the benefit of the doubt turns into being naïve
