In this episode, Matthew, Stephen, and Audrey dive into the “box theory”—the idea that people get placed into one of three boxes when dating: "Want to date," "Just for fun," or "Not interested." But is it really that simple? And can you change boxes over time?
We break down the psychology behind first impressions in dating, whether it's possible to shift from casual to committed, and what really makes someone decide we’re ‘relationship material’.
