This week on Bad Life, Good Advice: a dad roasts his daughter's dating habits. A Cosmo article about "Chalance" reveals what Gen Z actually wants in relationships. And we discuss the hardest breakup nobody talks about—ending friendships. Sometimes the best thing you can do is let people go.

As always, real dilemmas, common sense, and two people who understand that not all relationships last forever.

Stories discussed:

The Serial Dater's Dad: A father teases his teenage daughter for constantly switching boyfriends. Is he being disrespectful, or is he just being a dad?

Chalance: A new dating term taking over TikTok and dating apps. Gen Z is using it to signal they want serious commitment—and millennials have no idea what it means.

The Friendship Fade: A woman of 10 years with her best friends realizes she's become the third wheel. When is it time to quietly exit a friendship? Do you need closure, or can you just... let go?

Key Takeaways:

Teenage dating is messy, but it's normal

Be clear about what you want in relationships (serious or casual)

Not all friendships are meant to last forever—and that's okay

Sometimes the kindest thing is a quiet exit
