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.
We talk about:
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
How optimism can get you played
Protecting your energy, time, and peace while still staying open to love
This isn’t fear-mongering, it’s real conversations from real experiences.
If you’re dating online, thinking about it, or already tired of it… this one’s for you.
