83. How to feel hopeful while dating, even if you keep getting ghosted

If dating were easy, this podcast probably wouldn't exist. This episode is packed with reminders and mindset shifts to help you stay positive on your dating journey, even when you keep striking out. I discuss believing vs. hoping, checking our own expectations, and examining the reality of what's actually happening in your dating life, despite how it feels. At the end I answer two dating dilemmas! One is about maintaining a FWB while looking for a long-term partner, and the other is about talking to your partner about a phrase they keep using that bugs you.
