#201: Tired of feeling whiplash from dating that starts strong, then fades by month three? We're pulling the curtain back on the pattern so many women recognize: consistent texts, thoughtful questions, future talk, and then a sudden dip in energy that gets explained away as “not ready” or “let's go with the flow.” We explore why these early signals feel like intention, how they set expectations, and what to do when words and actions stop matching.We dig into the deeper wiring, too. If inconsistency felt normal in childhood, your body might confuse unease with chemistry and intensity with safety. That's why steady effort can feel boring while the rollercoaster feels alive. We also unpack a subtler trend: when emotional intimacy becomes a shortcut to closeness—asking all the right questions without the capacity to maintain real responsibility. Masks don't just fall; they expire. Around the three to six month mark, performance gives way to patterns, and that's your clearest data point.So where does that leave us? With practical choices. We're choosing actions that don't need interpretation, a steady pace over fireworks, patterns over promises, and emotional responsibility over convenience. We talk about age and accountability, why access without direction is a dealbreaker, and how to ask for structure without apologizing. Most of all, we reframe “pressure” as a request for alignment: if the reality is close connection, let the definition reflect it. Silence protects the pattern; clarity protects you.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a confidence boost, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find us. Your story matters—what pattern are you choosing to stop recycling next?You can now send us a text to ask a question or review the show. We would love to hear from you!

"Throning" in modern dating is a trend where an individual dates someone primarily to elevate their own social status, influence, reputation, or social media presence, rather than seeking a genuine emotional connection. This concept is seen as a contemporary twist on "gold-digging," where the focus shifts from financial gain to social capital, such as followers, fame, and online visibility.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/lets-talk-sex--5052038/support.
Michel is a successful single dad and self-described traditionalist who believes in asking a woman out, planning the date, and paying for it. But when it comes to dating apps, he says finding a woman who appreciates his values feels nearly impossible. In this episode, we dive into modern dating culture, dating app expectations, and whether traditional romance still has a place in today's swipe-driven world. Do dating apps reward effort—or misunderstand it? ⚠️ Warning: Strong opinions, honest takes, and zero sugarcoating ahead.

In this episode of The Almost Amazing Podcast, Jennifer, Justin, and Ashley dive into the latest cultural headlines and their own wild week! Ashley shares the chaotic story of her friend's apartment flooding in the middle of the night, detailing the four-hour ordeal of scooping out dirty water. Then, the hosts tackle a viral topic: Is it embarrassing for an independent woman to have a boyfriend? They debate the changing expectations in modern relationships, the impact of absent fathers, and the low perceived value-add men seem to bring in the secular dating world. The discussion pivots to the spiritual realm, where they talk about the breakdown of the family and how they've had to navigate the struggle between a child's happiness and their spiritual character. Jennifer also recounts a bizarre experience buying a car for her daughter, Olivia, from a mysterious, vacant warehouse-style dealership.
In a recent survey, 62% of men believe that “women have too many expectations of how men should be in relationships these days”. 44% say they would have to change too much about themselves in order to make a serious relationship work long-term…Last week, guest host Anna Daly was joined by SPIN1038's Katie Gallagher and Conzo, Comedian and Freelance Journalist to discuss the topic. Today, they join again to give an update, and discuss whether or not there is still hope in the modern dating world…

In this episode, I unpack the question - could much of the frustration and difficulty in dating and mating be attributed to (at least in part) to hyper-elite women practicing what is known as ‘Reproductive Suppression'?Vogue published an article titled ‘Is Having a Boyfriend Lame?' Which prompted Rob Henderson to put forth his hypothesis about Reproductive Suppression in this brilliant piece titled ‘Girl Boss Gatekeeping' - https://www.robkhenderson.com/p/girlb... I draw on research from Rob Henderson and Dr. Dani Sulikowski as I break down female intragroup conflict and why all the body positivity, you don't need a man, and red flag culture that seems like it's in solidarity with women might actually be a covert strategy to keep women from finding mates.Listen in to learn about how high-status females (including chimps) keep low-status females away from mates, how modern tech amplifies ‘aspirational' lifestyles, why rom-coms feel like castration for men, how dark-triad traits correlate with anti-natalism, and much more.This one is an evolutionary psychology nerding out episode - enjoy!TIMESTAMPS:00:53 —Intro 01:03 —One on one coaching spots03:15 — The Question of Elite Women as "Mean Girls"05:00 — The Proximate and Ultimate Reasons for Elite Women's Behavior06:16 — Intergroup Conflict and Covert Passive Aggression in Women 07:36 — Unconscious Competitive Strategy to Keep Women from Mates 10:12 — Girl Boss, Body Positivity, & Female Entitlement 13:16 — Technology, Consumerism, and the Tornado of Reproductive Suppression14:37 — Heartbreak of Women Who Prioritised Career Over Family 17:00 — Reproductive Sabotage: Disrupting Women's Mating Preferences 18:01 — Demonising Traditional Masculine Traits & Rom-Com Castration20:50 — Proximate vs. Ultimate Summary & Lying to Women21:58 — Elite Women's Access to Resources and Protection23:55 — Male Envy and Psychopathic Insanity 24:50 — Dark Triad Traits and Lack of Introspection25:52 — The Frustration of double standards27:16 — Historical Examples: Elizabeth Cady Stanton & Victoria Woodhull 28:54 — The Narrative of Oppression vs. Reality for Elite Women 29:57 — The Twisting of Pain into Man Envy (Betty Friedan) 31:17 — Conclusion & Call to Action for Harmony32:24 — Outro___________________________If you found some value today then help me spread the word!

Modern dating isn't just “cute kilig stories” anymore. It's ghosting, orbiting, love bombing, FUBU, dating apps, and a whole generation trying to heal childhood wounds through romantic partners. Twins Danah and Stacy Gutierrez unpack how media, MTV dating shows, hypersexual culture, and social media shaped the way they dated: from FUBU “situationships” and toxic patterns, to attachment styles, daddy issues, and why so many women settle for low-quality love just to feel chosen. They talk about: * How MTV, reality dating shows, and K-culture shaped their early views on love and sex * Why so many relationships now start with sex and end in confusion * Attachment styles, childhood wounds, and why you keep chasing emotionally unavailable people * Dating apps, ego boosts, and why “options” can destroy real connection * What healthy dating should look like: emotional safety, shared values, and building instead of performing This isn't a glamorization of their past, but a reckoning with it. If you've ever stayed with the wrong person just to feel seen, or molded yourself to fit a man's preference, this conversation is for you. Come for the chismis, stay for the uncomfortable truth, and maybe walk away with a little more clarity about why you date the way you do.

Send us your thoughts and possible requests for show topics. SUBSCRIBE TO OUR SHOWWhat happens when three opinionated hosts invite three Jersey women to dissect modern dating with zero filters and a lot of receipts? Sparks fly, rules get rewritten, and the truth about apps, scams, red flags, and real chemistry spills out in full color. We set the tone with tech chaos and holiday snark, then dive into the meat of it: why Hinge roses and premium paywalls turn connection into microtransactions, how filters and height inflation erode trust, and why chatting for weeks only breeds projections. The women's stories are brutally relatable—scammers with overseas “bank lockouts,” rent-ask bots, and first dates that fizzle after two Foreigner songs—while the guys admit the male versions of self-sabotage, hedging, and performance-mode dating.We push for a saner playbook: meet faster, keep the first date short and public, and cut your chat queue to two or three to lower the noise. Single parents get real about time: kid ages, custody rhythms, and mom guilt can derail momentum even when the spark is real. The crew doesn't shame meds or history; they call for honesty. If there's an antipsychotic on the list and you're hiding it, that's different from being transparent about everyday treatment and showing stability. We laugh about museum marathons, karaoke misses, and the worst selfie angles on Earth, but the takeaways stay sharp: use current photos, drop the filters, and write profiles that sound like your actual life. Offer a clear plan, respect boundaries, and notice who shows up like they text.By the end, we land on a hopeful note that isn't naive. Apps are tools, not casinos. You can set a tighter radius, meet sooner, protect your drink and your time, and still stay open enough to let something real start. If you've felt burned out, this conversation will leave you with practical steps, better filters for red flags, and a reminder that a good laugh can reset your dating mindset. If you enjoyed the ride, follow the show, share this episode with a friend who's swiping, and leave a quick review—it helps more listeners find us and keeps the good conversations coming. https://www.thetakeitdeepshow.com
How did the ancient Celts celebrate Samhain? Are our theories sound or was the truth lost to history? We may never know exactly how this Sabbat looked long ago, but we can be relatively certain that it was an end of summer celebration and a time to usher in the dark half of the year. Samhain reminds us that even in the darkness and uncertainty of winter, we have the ability to make merry! We can put on costumes, dance around a bonfire, and feast! We can stare down our fear and stand boldly in defiance of it. As the sky darkens and the air chills, imagine the light that you will carry into winter. Happy Samhain!

Dating these days? Absolutely brutal. If you've managed to dodge the endless swipe-fest, consider yourself lucky. According to a new Rolling Stone piece by a high school senior, Gen Z guys are tapping out of dating altogether. Kennedy says to delete the apps, grab a drink, and talk to someone in person.

Many Catholics are struggling to find a spouse in today's modern dating culture, but Candid is a new fun way to meet people that blends the old school conversation with the new school technology available to us. This week you get not one but TWO Taylors and we are joined by the founder of Candid, an online dating site that plays matchmaker for Catholics through their online speed dating platform. I love this idea! It gets past the simple swipe left/swipe right monotony to having real conversations with other single Catholics to see if there's a spark.

Relationships are more transactional than we admit. Psychologist Orion Taraban explains what men and women actually want versus what they say! [Pt 1/2]Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1212What We Discuss with Orion Taraban:People often can't accurately describe what they actually want in relationships. Women may say they want kindness and safety, but these qualities only matter from men they're already attracted to. The key insight: watch what people do, not what they say they want.According to Orion Taraban, people are always in relationships with their perceived best available option. This involves both emotional connection and practical value calculations. While this framing may feel uncomfortable, it helps explain why purely psychological dating advice often falls short.Contrary to popular belief, there aren't different strategies for short-term versus long-term relationships in modern dating culture. Since sex typically precedes commitment, the path to long-term relationships requires first succeeding at short-term attraction dynamics, then maintaining those behaviors over time.Men tend to cheat while staying in relationships (often due to opportunity rather than dissatisfaction), while women are more likely to cheat as a way to transition to better relationships. Women may also engage in "consecutive cheating" — ending one relationship and immediately starting another, which technically isn't infidelity but serves a similar function.Focus on attraction first, everything else second. The most practical takeaway is understanding that attraction must be established before other relationship qualities matter. Whether you're looking for casual dating or marriage, you need to first master the fundamentals of becoming attractive to your target demographic. This means being honest about what actually creates attraction rather than what you think should create it. Stay tuned for the second part of this two-part episode (airing later this week), where we'll dive deeper into specific strategies for building and maintaining this attraction in both short and long-term contexts!And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
