Are Assumptions Ruining Dating?

Dear Media
About this episode

Do we actually know what the opposite sex wants when it comes to dating, or have we been wrong all along? On this episode, we’re discussing a recent study that shows how assumptions and misconceptions could be hurting your dating life. We talk about why and how we misread people in early stages of dating and how to stop, the importance of recognizing differences in your partner and their reactions, the male/female disconnect about etiquette, and more. Before we dive into the topic, we catch up on Ashley’s mortifying pharmacy moment and Rayna’s problematic new email address, plus we’re discussing how much day-to-day minutia you share with your partner vs. your friends, and sharing our and our listeners’ unexpected dirty talk turn-ons. Enjoy!
