When Is "Casual Fun" Dangerous in Dating...

MATTHEW HUSSEY
About this episode

Casual relationships and hook-ups are more common than ever. Some even talk about a "hook-up culture". But even though we have more choice than ever, there are sometimes consequences we never anticipate. Society says we shouldn’t have stigma around hooking up and casually dating - and that's a good thing - but it can also be painful if we aren't honest about what we really want. We always have to ask the question: is this serving us? Am I feeling respected or am I doing something because it's simply easy right now? Matt, Stephen, Audrey and Jameson discuss the good and bad of casual fun, what you need to think about beforehand, and how to we make sure we don't hurt other people (or ourselves) in the process.
