Ep. 13 The Dating Scene: My Thoughts on Being Single, Dating and Finding Love at 36

This is a juicy one. Lauren (my podcast manager) felt that my Valentine’s episode didn’t cover enough of the dirt so here it is: dating in your 30s, casual sex, dating apps, paying for the first date etc. Strap yourselves in.Only one things for certain regarding dating and navigating romantic relationships. It is NOT a one size fits all situation. In this podcast, I share my thoughts, feeling and opinions but bear in mind, what makes me happy in a relationship could be your worst nightmare. Have dating apps had their moment? Are they still useful to actually meet your significant other today? Dating apps have a success rate of 20%. Would you use a laundry detergent that only worked 20% of the time? Would you marry for money? or for the lifestyle a man could provide you? Should the man pay on a first date or should the cost be split 50-50? Is casual sex harmless or harmful? When is casual sex not ok? How do you actually meet your future partner/wife/husband? What are your non-negotiables when you’re dating? Do you have sex on the first date? How much independence do you require in a relationship? Do you know what you want in your future partner? Do you have clear green flags and red flags? LET US KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS. We’re all different. Different strokes for different folks. Email [email protected] or send me a DM on Instagram.
