The Top Driver Of New Relationships In 2026

from Mostly Dating · host Carleigh

Welcome back! Today we're kicking off with an update on my meditation challenge, and I open up about a recent experience that had me momentarily questioning my "the right thing won't pass you by" advice. Next, we get into listener questions from a woman dating a man who is fresh into a marriage separation, a listener who feels like she's asking her boyfriend for the same things over and over with no results, a woman who's boyfriend ignores her when they're around friends, and more.Join my Substack with a free trial for access to more in-depth advice, tips, and personal essays on all things dating and relationships.As always, find me on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@mostlydating⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.
