About this episode
Getting to date three is hard and getting past it can feel impossible. In this episode, I’m breaking down why connections so often fizzle by date three, how to tell if you’re subconsciously pushing people away, and what actually helps build momentum early on. I share practical tips around texting, planning dates, pacing, and confidence. At the end, I get into a dating dilemma about a concert invite months in advance. Previous Episode Mentioned21.Are you dating for validation?
