Do dating apps suck or is it just me?

Being Single, Getting on Apps, and Learning How to Communicate

Dating apps: can't live with them, can't find a date without them. Today I am joined by Ilana Dunn (host of Seeing Other People) and Stevie Bowen (creator of The City of Dating) for an honest, also hilarious breakdown of the modern dating landscape. From which app is actually worth downloading to whether you're a catfish if you haven't updated your photos in three years, as usual, nothing is off limits.

Today's Questions

• What is it like dating with a public "persona"?
• How do you resist the urge to social media stalk before a first date?
• What's the breakdown of the dating apps? What should you use if you're looking for something serious? (check out our last episode if you're looking for something that's not 😜)
• How do you navigate being the only single friend in your friend group?
• How do you choose the right photos for your profile?
• What can you do if you've gained weight or have had another significant physical change since your photos were taken? Is it catfishing if you don't update your photos?
• What is proper "texting" etiquette on dating apps? Are you ghosting if you simply never respond? 👻
• Is it helpful to date more than one person at a time?
• How do you recognize signs of incompatibility? How many chances do you give someone?
• Community Q: What if your partner finds your flirting awkward?
• Community Q: What do you do when the energy feels one-sided and the person you're dating never takes initiative to plan dates?

Ilana and Stevie share some great advice and a lot of relatable stories...and you know I brought the laughs. Hope you enjoy listening!
