“You Say You Deserve Better… So Why Are You Still There?”

This week on CockTales: Dirty Discussions, we’re unpacking a word we use all the time but rarely question… deserve.What does it actually mean to deserve something? Is it earned… aligned… or just something we say we want?From dating standards and “soft life” expectations to the reality of accepting less than we claim we deserve, we get real about confidence, self-worth, and the disconnect between what we say and how we move.Plus, one of us shares a wild dating story that quickly turned into a lesson in knowing when to walk away… immediately. If you’ve ever said “I deserve better” but stayed anyway… this episode is for you.Offers From Our Sponsors:Soaking Wet- VB HealthVisit soakingwet.com and use code CockTales for 10% offSuper.comStart building your credit the easy way.
