Is subscribing to someone's OnlyFans cheating? What about texting an ex, keeping a dating app "just to look", or fantasising about someone else during sex? In this special watershed episode, we're diving into the murky grey areas of modern relationships with a boundary-pushing cheating quiz that sparks some surprisingly revealing conversations. Together, we unpack the behaviours that sit between loyalty and betrayal, exploring emotional affairs, secret crushes, dating apps, hidden messages, workplace flirtations, exes, social media boundaries, and what "cheating" actually means in monogamous and non-monogamous relationships. The truth? There isn't one universal definition. What feels harmless to one person might feel devastating to another. This episode is designed to help you better understand your own boundaries, communicate your expectations, and start the conversations many couples avoid until it's too late. ⚠️ This is a Watershed episode. Free listeners get the first half of the conversation, but if you want the full debate, all our answers, and the deeper discussions around ENM, trust, honesty and relationship agreements, you'll need to join us on Patreon. Whether you're happily monogamous, exploring ethical non-monogamy, or simply wondering where your own line is, this episode will leave you with plenty to think about.

Today, we dig into dating apps from every angle: the history, the numbers, the psychology behind swiping, and whether it's actually making anyone better at relationships. James shares a story about creating a fake cowboy profile for a buddy in Wyoming, explains why the whole thing just feels off to him, and we land on a take that might surprise you. Real connection isn't found in a grid of strangers. You still have to show up.

Dr. Paul Eastwick, PhD, is a professor of psychology at the University of California, Davis, and a leading expert on the modern science of mate selection in humans. We discuss what people actually look for in a partner, including surprising findings about age preferences, finances, and physical attractiveness. We also discuss why dating apps often lead people to select for traits that don't support lasting partnerships. We discuss how initial attractions form and evolve and which factors best predict romantic relationship stability and satisfaction. We also explain activities that can expand your dating pool, as well as practical tools for building and sustaining healthy romantic relationships. This episode is for anyone currently in or wanting to be in a relationship. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

What do dating apps and real estate have in common? More than you might think. In this episode, we're diving into a surprisingly accurate comparison between online dating profiles and home listings. Just like people can present themselves differently online, homes can look very different in photos than they do in person. That's where home staging comes in. We break down the difference between staging, interior design, and creating a home that truly works for your lifestyle. Whether you're preparing to sell, shopping for your next home, or simply looking for ways to enjoy your current home more, this conversation is packed with practical insights that can help you see real estate differently. At the Todd Tramonte Home Selling Team, we believe great real estate advice goes beyond buying and selling. Sometimes it's about helping you see what's possible in a home and making the most of the place you already live. CALL or TEXT us ANYTIME 214-216-2161 Have you ever toured a home that looked completely different than the photos? Tell us about it in the comments!

Dating apps and social media didn't invent infidelity, but they changed its mechanics, its speed, and its emotional architecture. This episode breaks down the psychology behind digital temptation, from dopamine-driven novelty-seeking to the rise of “micro-cheating” in DMs and comment sections. We explore why technology lowered the barriers to betrayal while making detection both easier and harder than ever before.

Falling in love is often effortless. Staying in love is where the real work begins. Sarah sits down with attachment theory expert and founder of The Personal Development School, Thais Gibson, to explore what actually keeps love alive long after the honeymoon phase ends. Why do so many couples mistake the loss of butterflies for the loss of love? What happens when feelings fluctuate? And how do healthy relationships maintain connection through stress, change, conflict, and the ordinary routines of everyday life? Sarah and Thais discuss the difference between falling in love and staying in love, the role of commitment and intentionality, why relationship maintenance matters, and what it truly means when people say that love is a verb. Whether you're dating, married, healing from past relationships, or trying to build stronger connections, this conversation offers practical insights into creating lasting love that goes beyond chemistry and infatuation. Because the strongest relationships aren't built by people who never disconnect. They're built by people who keep choosing each other. If you've ever wondered how to keep love growing after the initial spark fades, this episode is for you.In this episode:• Why the honeymoon phase isn't meant to last forever• The difference between chemistry, attachment, and lasting love• How to navigate natural fluctuations in feelings• The importance of relationship maintenance• How healthy couples reconnect after disconnection• Why curiosity is one of the most underrated relationship skills• What it means to choose your partner through seasons of change• The habits that help long-term relationships thriveDownload HILY Dating App from the App Store or Google Play, or visit https://hily.go.link/d31uDDISCLAIMER: This podcast offers information for educational and entertainment purposes only and is not a substitute for professional advice.

THE BREAK ROOM, 6/17/26, 9AM Hour. Dating apps are often hit or miss. Some people find a lot of success, even finding their partner. Others hate it more than anything else that exists.

But what happened to this celebrity on their most recent flight?

Fans were left stunned after one of the stars of the Harry Potter franchise was reportedly spotted looking for love online.

Falls ihr zum Beispiel gerade auf der Suche nach einem neuen Hobby seid, dann bekommt ihr hier heute Inspiration von Annika alias Annikazion! Sie ist Vollzeit-Creatorin. Die meisten kennen sie vermutlich von ihren Reaction Videos auf Youtube. Da kommentiert Annika Reality-TV-Formate und kritisiert zum Beispiel toxisches Verhalten oder feiert schöne Momente ab. Bis zu unserem Gespräch hab ich mich immer gefragt, wie sie es schafft, neben ihren Youtube- und Instagram-Kanälen noch SOVIEL andere Sachen nebenbei zu machen. Und damit meine ich nicht ihre große Leidenschaft für Sport - die hat sie nämlich auch. Ich meine eher, dass ihre Inhalte sich manchmal anfühlen, als würde sie jeden Tag ein anderes Leben leben. Mal lernt sie nähen oder Brot backen, dann radelt sie von München nach Wien, und am nächsten Tag bringt sie sich selbst bei, wie man Schlösser knackt. Die Antwort darauf, WIE sie das alles unter einen Hut bekommt, hat mich dann doch überrascht – genau wie die Tatsache, dass diese vielen verschiedenen Sidequests von Annika sogar mal der Auslöser für Ängste und Unsicherheiten waren.Außerdem habe ich für Annika auch wieder eine Überraschung dabei. Das hatte ja in der letzten Folge schon so gut geklappt, als zu Mirella Precek plötzlich noch Louis Klamroth auf die Bühne kam. Dieses Mal hatte ich eine Botschaft von Coldmirror dabei und hach, das war ein richtig schöner Moment. Hier kommt also eine gute Stunde mit Annikazion!►►►Deutschland3000 Instagram: @deutschland3000 https://www.instagram.com/deutschland3000YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/deutschland3000 AnnikazionInstagram: @annikazionhttps://www.instagram.com/annikazion/ YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/annikazion Eva Schulz Instagram: @evaschulzhttps://www.instagram.com/evaschulz/ ►►►Der Artikel, aus dem Eva Paula “La Polcevita” zitiert: https://www.stern.de/kultur/reality-tv--die-staerksten-momente-von-mirella--silvi-und-paula-35320176.html Zum Podcast „Wie geht‘s“ mit Robin Gosens kommt ihr hier:https://www.ardsounds.de/sendung/wie-geht-s-mit-robin-gosens/urn:ard:show:a9ef89f368d9bc71/ ►►►Host: Eva SchulzRedaktion :Sabine Lebek, Ruby-Ann Schwiethal, Axel Schöning und Kim Vanessa SchangTeam YouTube: Javan Wenz, Jana Keifenheim, Camille Laveu, Tim Terborg, Albrecht Elstermann und Fehri LarianiFotografin Cover: Leah RuprechtGrafik Cover: BR/Lena Waldispühl, Simon HeimbuchnerArt Direction Cover: Veronika GrenzebachProduktion: KONTER Studios GmbH und das Sounddesign kommt von Soundquadrat. „Deutschland3000“ ist ein Podcast von N-JOY (NDR) und dem BR für die ARD.

In this episode of the Worth Loving Podcast, Keana dives deep into the complicated world of dating apps and explores whether they're helping or hurting modern dating. With her signature trauma‑informed, emotionally grounded approach, she breaks down how dating apps impact self‑worth, emotional health, and the way women show up in relationships. This episode is honest, compassionate, and full of clarity — perfect for anyone navigating the digital dating world.✨ Episode RecapBefore jumping into today's topic, Keana recaps last week's episode, Why Your Self‑Worth Determines Your Love Life. She revisits the core message: your sense of worth shapes who you choose, what you tolerate, and how you show up in relationships. When your self‑worth is low, dating becomes confusing and painful. When it's healthy, you date with clarity and confidence. This foundation sets the stage for understanding how dating apps affect your emotional experience.✨ What We Cover in This Episode1. The Promise of Dating AppsHow dating apps expand your access to potential partnersWhy convenience can be helpful for busy womenHow apps can support self‑discovery and clarityWhen dating apps can be empowering and aligned with healthy self‑worth2. The Problems With Dating AppsThe paradox of choice and how it leads to shallow connectionsGhosting, breadcrumbing, and emotional burnoutHow curated profiles create unrealistic expectationsWhy dating apps can amplify insecurity and comparison3. The Psychology Behind Dating AppsDopamine, novelty, and the addictive nature of swipingHow apps trigger old patterns and unhealed woundsWhy understanding the psychology helps you take your power back4. How to Use Dating Apps in a Healthy WaySetting emotional boundaries before you download an appCreating a profile rooted in authenticity, not performanceRed flags to watch for earlyHow to pace conversations and avoid fantasy‑bondingWhen to take breaks and protect your emotional energy5. So… Do Dating Apps Help or Hurt?Keana offers a balanced, grounded conclusion: dating apps are neutral. They can help when you're dating from worthiness, and they can hurt when you're dating from loneliness or insecurity. Your self‑worth — not the app — determines your experience.✨ Reflection Questions for ListenersUse these questions to check in with yourself as you navigate dating apps:Why am I using dating apps right now — connection or validation?Do I feel more confident or more insecure after using them?What boundaries do I need to protect my emotional energy?What patterns do I notice in the people I match with?Am I choosing from worthiness or from loneliness?✨ Final ThoughtsDating apps can be a helpful tool — but they should never define your worth. Keana encourages listeners to date with intention, protect their peace, and remember that they deserve love that feels safe, consistent, and emotionally nourishing.✨ Connect With the ShowIf this episode resonated with you, share it with a friend who needs encouragement on their dating journey.

Finding Love Over Fifty –Based on his in-depth interviews with over 800 guests on GUY'S GUY RADIO, Robert shares what he's learned, what he knows, and what he does to live his best life. Today we're turning the microphone around and putting host Robert Manni in the guest chair for an honest, insightful, and entertaining conversation about dating and relationships for over-50 singles. Drawing on Robert's experiences, his novel The Guys' Guy's Guide to Love, and his many conversations with dating and relationship experts, we'll explore how mature singles can confidently navigate modern dating, online apps, first dates, intimacy, communication, and building meaningful relationships later in life.

Comedian, podcast host, and author Jared Freid joins Closed Course presented by Pins & Aces for a hilarious conversation about golf, dating, stand-up comedy, and why the first tee box might be more nerve-racking than walking on stage. Jared talks about improving his golf game, sneaking onto his parents' club in Florida, playing random muni courses while on tour, and why golf in New York City is an all-day battle. The guys also get into Jared's new book Walking Red Flag, modern dating apps, relationship advice, comedy crowd work, bombing on stage, and the surprising similarities between golf, dating, DJing, and stand-up. Plus, Jared roasts Wells Adams, breaks down why playing golf with family hits different, gives his "caddie advice" for life, and explains why "we write to edit" might be the best advice for comedy, golf, and everything in between. Presented by Pins & Aces Produced by Guerilla Sports

In the early 1990s, match.com debuted as the first major dating app on the world wide web, but it was far from the earliest way that people used technology to meet other hopeful singles. For this episode, we'll look at what came before the apps we know today, the video dating of the 1980s as well as the original computer dating of the 1960s, and we'll learn about the way that “dating” itself came to exist in the Victorian era when swiping left or right was done with proto-speed dating and analog opening lines. Then we'll look at the ways that the dating apps we know today have come under control of major corporations that seek to siphon our money away by manipulating our emotions, and potentially, to use our data for far more nefarious means. ⁠⁠⁠Become a Patron⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to support our show and get early ad-free episodes and bonus content Or subscribe to American Hysteria on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us on instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠@americanhysteriapodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠ to see the videos that go along with this episode Get some of our new merch at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠americanhysteria.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, all profits this month go to The Sameer Project, a Palestinian-led mutual aid group.

How queer men in Kazakhstan navigate dating apps in a context of stigma, surveillance, and limited legal protections. It shows how platforms like Grindr, Hornet, Tinder, and VKontakte function as spaces where trust, visibility, and safety must be continuously negotiated. This episode explores how queer men in Kazakhstan navigate dating apps in contexts shaped by stigma, surveillance, and limited legal protections. Drawing on interviews and platform analysis in Shymkent and Almaty, the research challenges the idea of dating apps as neutral or purely liberating spaces, showing instead how they function as ‘ambivalent infrastructures' where connection is always intertwined with risk. Rather than simple tools for meeting partners, apps like VKontakte, Grindr, Hornet, and Tinder are used as distinct social environments that require careful interpretation and strategy. Users constantly assess authenticity, safety, and potential harm, often moving across multiple platforms, starting with apps, then shifting to messaging services like WhatsApp or Telegram, and using calls and additional checks to verify identity before meeting offline. Set against Kazakhstan's broader socio-political context, where queer visibility can lead to harassment, outing, or violence, the episode highlights how digital intimacy becomes a form of ongoing risk management. It ultimately reframes dating apps not as spaces of free connection, but as complex systems where trust, visibility, and safety must be continuously negotiated. Yerkebulan Sairambay is a scholar at risk based at the Centre for Oriental studies in the University of Tartu (Estonia). His research interests involve, but are not limited to, the following areas of expertise: political participation, new media, civil society, climate change, clan politics, democratisation, queer studies, academic freedom, transitional justice, and nation- and state- building with a particular focus on the countries of post-communist Europe and former Soviet Union. He holds a PhD in Sociology from the University of Cambridge, and IMRCEES Erasmus Mundus Master's Double Degrees in Russian, Central and East European studies (University of Glasgow) and political science (Corvinus University of Budapest).

Ich wusste, dass dieser Moment kommen würde, trotzdem war ich überrascht. Vor einer Woche bekam ich zum ersten Mal auf einer Dating-App eine Nachricht, die offensichtlich von ChatGPT geschrieben wurde. Scheinbar fiel dem Typen keine schlaue Antwort ein, nachdem er mich nach meinen Lieblingspodcasts gefragt hatte, und ich vom 50+2-Podcast schwärmte, dem Fussballpodcast von Nico und Niklas. “Der Podcast sagt viel über dich aus – du konsumierst Fußball nicht einfach nur, du hinterfragst ihn. Das ist selten. Es hat etwas Besonderes, wenn jemand Komplexität aushalten kann, ohne am Ende unbedingt eine einfache Antwort zu brauchen. Hast du manchmal auch das Gefühl, dass oberflächliche Stammtischgespräche umso schwieriger werden, je mehr Fußball man schaut und Nico und Niklas zuhört?” Learn more about your ad choices.

The way women give birth is changing, according to BBC analysis, which has discovered that one in four births in England are now emergency caesareans. The current figure is 26% - an increase of 8% in the past five years - and the rate of elective caesareans has also gone up. The Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists say the system is struggling to cope with this increased level of unplanned surgeries. To discuss what's behind the rise and the potential impact on women, presenter Kylie Pentelow is joined by BBC Health Correspondent Catherine Burns, President of the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, Dr Alison Wright, and Helen Cheyne who's a Professor of Maternal and Infant Health Research at the University of Stirling. Hannah Murray was at the height of her fame as an actor in 2016, having found fame as the much-loved Cassie in E4's teen drama Skins, she was now a regular in the HBO fantasy series Game of Thrones as Gilly. But behind the scenes Hannah was struggling with her mental health, and she found herself involved in an organisation which offered courses in magical healing. The following year, Hannah was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. She's since retired from acting and written a memoir about those turbulent times, called The Make-Believe – A Memoir of Magic and Madness. Women's rights charity FiLiA has launched a new national campaign to get Sexual Entertainment Venues, commonly referred to as strip clubs, off the streets. This is informed by new research examining how the venues are viewed and experienced by women living, working and moving nearby. They spoke to more than 700 women across Cardiff, Edinburgh and Manchester, with 55% of women opposed to the venues, and 8% expressing supportive views. Dr Laura Favaro, Director of Research at FiLiA, joins Kylie to discuss their report. The female CEO of dating app Hinge has said that Gen Z "need AI to start conversations on dating apps because they lack the confidence of older generations". Jackie Jantos told the BBC that daters in their 20s are spending less time with other people, compared to two decades ago, has affected their ability to meet and chat in person. To discuss whether AI could help or hinder dating, and the challenges of meeting people IRL, Kylie is joined by author and journalist Olivia Petter and Jessica Evans, founder of events company BODA, which stands for Bored of Dating Apps.And BBC Music correspondent Mark Savage joins us to discuss the breaking news that Kayna King, the entrepreneur and founder of the Mobo awards, has died aged 57 from colon cancer. The Mobo Organisation called her one of the UK music industry's "most fearless champions". Presenter: Kylie Pentelow Producer: Sarah Jane Griffiths

This week's Sesh starts in one place and somehow ends somewhere completely different, which is honestly how most great conversations go. We dive into Utah's long history with prescription pills, share stories about pain medication, addiction, recovery, and how easily people can find themselves heading down a road they never intended to travel.  From there, the conversation shifts into chronic pain, fitness, alcohol, personal responsibility, and the frustrating reality that sometimes the best solutions come from random people who've lived through the same problems rather than the professionals you expected to help.  Then things take a turn into dating, relationships, identity, self-worth, and the strange expectations we place on ourselves and each other. We talk about modern dating, why genuine connection feels harder than ever, how people confuse job titles and income with value, and why many of us are still carrying stories about who we think we're supposed to be.  Along the way we explore friendship, fatherhood, religion, community, personal growth, networking culture, leadership, and why helping other people often ends up helping ourselves just as much.  Utah's long history with prescription pill abusePain medication, addiction, and recovery storiesWhy movement often helps chronic pain more than medicationThe surprising similarities between dating and video gamesHow self-worth gets tangled up with money and careersDating apps, modern relationships, and connectionFatherhood, purpose, and personal growthWhy community matters more than networkingLeadership, hiring, and building better workplacesThe stories we tell ourselves about who we areOne Thing to remember,Most of us spend a lot of time trying to become the person we think we're supposed to be. Sometimes the better question is whether that story was ever ours to begin with.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

Want to meet your partner in real life, without ever opening another dating app? Y'all, this episode is for the woman who's so over-swiping she could scream, and who secretly still believes her person is out there (because, girl, he is).I'm joined by Lydia Klemensowicz, dating coach and host of the Flirting with Life podcast, for a juicy conversation on how to meet people in the wild and date from a secure, open-hearted place instead of fear. We get into where to actually meet your person off the apps, the coffee shop, the gym, a dance class, the new rooms you're not putting yourself in yet, and how to do it without feeling cringe.We also unpack why "I don't know how to flirt" usually means you're putting him above you, the pre-date ritual that gets you grounded and magnetic before you walk out the door, and how to reframe rejection (Lydia makes the case that it's actually sexy). Plus: "dropping the handkerchief" so you can be pursued and empowered, and how to stop absorbing everyone else's bitterness about dating.If you're healing anxious or avoidant patterns and want dating to feel fun again, this is your sign. Secure attachment + real-life connection = the healthy love you deserve.Free 3-Day Live Event Adored. Chosen.

In this live episode recorded on May 21, 2026, I'm diving into how technology is reshaping our sex lives, relationships, dating habits, and emotional connection. From dating apps to social media, doomscrolling, and phone addiction, I unpack why so many of us feel more disconnected, overstimulated, anxious, and lonely despite being more digitally connected than ever. I also answer listener questions about insecurity, menopause and orgasms, remote-control toys, and how couples can rebuild intimacy through presence, communication, eye contact, flirtation, and intentional connection. If you've ever felt emotionally distant, distracted in bed, addicted to your phone, or unsure how to reconnect with your partner, this episode is for you.

We are all in a very toxic relationship right now. And nobody is talking about it.   Could our phones be changing the chemistry of our brains, how we date, how we relate and how we connect? And are most of us too addicted to even notice? In this episode I sit down with my longtime friend Shannon Algeo, therapist and author of The Power In Your Hands, to have the conversation we all desperately need to be having. From dating apps and attachment styles to social media, AI and why an entire generation is having less sex than any before them, this is one of the most important episodes I have recorded in a long time.   In this episode we explore:

World famous relationship therapist Esther Perel has been studying relationships for over 40 years. She joins Nicole to share the most common problems couples seek therapy for, the 3 types of conflicts we fight over, and how to productively resolve them. Esther discusses how to get over "icks" while dating, and challenges us to ask ourselves: what "icks" would people find in you? They also explore exactly why modern dating feels so incredibly tough right now, the fact that therapy speak has gone mainstream thanks to shows like The Sopranos, and whether that's a good or bad thing. Plus, Esther shares a wild story about her first therapy session between a man and his AI girlfriend, and she totally flips the script on Nicole to ask the ultimate question: Would you date you?Celebrate the 20th anniversary of her groundbreaking book, Mating in Captivity.Watch this episode on our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@WhyWontYouDateMePodcastTake our listener survey and shape the future of the podcast!Support this podcast by checking out our sponsor:• Chime: Chime is not just smarter banking, it is the most rewarding way to bank.
