Bro, I’m Far More Than Cute
from Flirtin After Forty Hosted by Tracy Lopez
Scratch is officially off the roster—but not because anything dramatic happened. Sometimes two people simply stop reaching for each other, and that tells you everything you need to know. This week, I’m talking about chemistry, trusting that little feeling when something seems off, and realizing that “nice” is not always enough. I’m also fresh off a surprisingly wonderful trip to Michigan with my kids, slightly less wonderful interactions with my ex, and the very real realization that I am tired, menopausal, and completely ready for school to start again. Then we head back into the dating apps, where the men are still leading with “you’re cute,” asking for phone numbers after three messages, posting mysterious emoji-only profiles, advertising “magical tongues,” and apparently placing bananas in their pants. So yes, I’m back on Hinge. I’m not sure I’m happy about it—but it does mean more entertainment for all of us. Plus, this week’s Burned Haystack red flag: the man who wants you to know he is extremely busy…but might make time for you if you prove you’re worth it.
