We’ve all heard the saying: if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. But isn’t that a terrible way to look at life? Because if you go into everything with negativity, you might miss the best thing that could ever happen. But, dear listener, the saying is a saying for a reason. What if sometimes when your gut is telling you this may all be just TOO good… it is?

Moving in together. Some do it quickly, some choose to wait a while. For Fiona and Steve, it was the former, wasting no time in creating their own special memories and routines. Plus, it really is the best way to really get to know someone. But even though you share a space, there are always places to hide secrets. Secrets that when found, will have you questioning whether you ever really knew that person at all. Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com.au Follow us: @everyonehasanex See omnystu...

What would you do, Dear Listener, if you found out something about your partner that changed the very fabric of your relationship, at a point when you felt you were too far in? Would you cut and run, or would you trust the fact you’ve now found out and try to move on? So maybe you do keep moving forward. Maybe you move forward for six years. But through and after it all, it turns out what you’d thought was the issue didn’t even scratch the surface. Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com.au Fol...

When it comes to relationships, there are great relationships, terrible relationships, broken relationships and all those relationships in between. But there’s another kind we don’t talk about that often. Perhaps because it’s not really a relationship? It's the situationship. While not having a title, they can be just as intense, confusing, all consuming and chaotic as something more official. Just ask Amanda.

It’s often said women have a sixth sense. Our guts are strong and can play a big part in whether we trust someone or not. But a gut instinct isn’t evidence. Can our bodies play tricks on us? We can choose to ignore, to live with the icky feelings or, we can confront them head on? That was the question Claire had to keep asking herself for almost 4 years.

Not every relationship is perfect. Christ, none are really! But some are far less perfect than others.Unfortunately, though she didn’t really see it at the time, that was the one Alice found herself in. But she loved him. Isn’t that what we so often hear? You let things slide, you ignore the little things in pursuit of more of the great times. But what about when they’re not just little things anymore, but instead something really, really big?

We all know what they say — if there are question marks or gut feelings early on in a relationship, it’s probably because it’s not the right one. Your match should be someone with who you have no doubts. It should be easy. But sometimes even the best, strongest and happiest relationships can carry secrets. Some small and insignificant in the scheme of things. But others, no matter how hard they’ve been hidden, once out can destroy everything. Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com.au Follow us...

Trust. It’s the pillar of any relationship — romantic or not. That’s what Indy believes. She also thinks there’s no reason NOT to give it out when you first meet someone. But others would disagree, arguing trust should be earned. That, Indy reckons, is just going into life with a negative attitude and nobody’s got time for that. So what could possibly happen to make someone with her shiny outlook do a complete 180? Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com.au Follow us: @everyonehasanex CREDITS :...

There are many great loves women can find in their lives. Best friends, sisters, ‘The One’, the one who got away and of course, the gay best friend. It really is a love like no other. And because it’s a friendship, deep and fulfilling but platonic, it doesn’t have the same pressures as a romantic relationship. Nothing could ever come between you, or change what you have. Until, it does. Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com.au Follow us: @everyonehasanex CREDITS : Host: Georgia Love Producer:...

Money. We work hard for it. It can bring so much joy, especially when shared with loved ones to create long lasting memories, as was the case for Bianca. But there’s a dark side to money. Or more so how it can turn acts of kindness into entrapment and loved ones into vultures.

Acceptance. We all crave it and it makes us feel good. But it feels extra special when it comes at a time in need and from someone who you immediately fancy and this was the case when Sacha met Jay. But the thing about acceptance is that when you have it, it’s something you’re scared to lose. Even if what originally felt so good, starts to feel isolating and….off. And what once felt safe, feels very, very scary. SUPPORT If you or anyone you know is a victim of domestic violence, you can visit ww...

Age differences. Do they really mean anything? You’re only as old as the person you feel, age is but a number, etc etc etc. It doesn’t matter when you’re in love, right? That was the case for Carly.

A heads up: this episode deals with serious themes including domestic violence, coercive control and suicide. Listener discretion is advised. We always hear how great a relationship is when it begins. Why else would it, right? There’s butterflies, late nights staying up talking, a sense of belonging, desire and comfort. Having that one person to plan life with and who’s just desperate to have you around all the time. But what about when that desperation becomes too much and starts looking and fe...

Words. Some say they’re the most powerful tool we have as humans. Words have the ability to portray thoughts and emotions, share stories, convey feelings and make people feel loved. But when something holds power, it can go both ways. Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me? Bull. Some words can not just hurt - they can change the course of someone’s entire life. END BITS: Got a story you want to share? Email us: podcast@mamamia.com.au Follow us: @everyonehasanex CREDIT...

Online dating. We've all heard a story - good or bad. It’s the way of the world now. You log on, upload your best pics, think of a few witty pickup lines and get swiping. And if you're lucky, you won’t be swiping too long, because the perfect person is right there at the tap of a button - without having to even leave the couch. But how well can you really know someone before you’ve actually met them? How can you trust everything they’re telling you? Where they say they live, what their job is, o...

The blindside. A simple term, but it can mean so much. It comes in many forms. There’s of course the good sort, where the unexpected is a welcome, happy surprise. But, it can be a bad thing too. And For Sarah, there were other things she didn’t see coming. That other type of blindside that only other people experience. One that turns a seemingly dreamy life together, into a complete nightmare. END BITS: Got a story you want to share? Email us: podcast@mamamia.com.au Follow us: @everyonehasanex C...

And when the universe not only listens, but delivers, it is a truly powerful thing, which was exactly the case, for Jess. But what is more powerful than manifestation at its best, dear listener? It’s that little thing called gut feeling. When everything seems perfect, but your intuition suggests otherwise. Sometimes it’s subtle, but other times it raises an internal alarm that cannot be ignored And a h...

The age of online dating. It certainly has its ups and downs. Sure, it takes away a bit of that face-to-face connection you’d get meeting someone at a bar. But it also means you don’t have to be in the same bar as someone to meet them. There’s a whole world full of options right at your fingertips. And it allowed Sophie to meet Stelios. And it’s a normal way to meet someone. Gone are the days of being concerned about creeps lurking in dark rooms on their keyboards, or embarrassment about connect...

They say love is blind, but do we ever really listen? Because in those first precious moments with a new love, where you’re sharing stories, trading secrets and talking for hours on end, you truly think there’s nothing that will shake that unbreakable bond. And that was the case for Rachel and Ben. But dear listener, no matter how many hours you spend talking, or how many truths be told, can you ever really truly know someone? Because some parts will always remain hidden…sometimes in deep, dark ...

Love bombing. We’ve all heard of it. When, right at the start of a relationship, one party bombs the other with so much love, attention and romance, the other just can’t resist. And for Stella, there was even an added layer that it came from her high school sweetheart. But while those seemingly innocent gestures may make you feel warm and sparkly in the beginning, there’s nothing innocent about them at all. That love and attention turns into control and manipulation…and the romance, into gasligh...

Urban Myths. A story or statement that is not true, but is often repeated and believed by many. Some people believe the idea of a soul mate to be one of these urban myths. That there’s one person on this planet meant for each of us. Well according to Steve, this concept was as real as they come. But what about that other urban myth….you know the one where you put a frog in a pot of water and when you gradually heat it, the frog will stay there, not realising it’s getting hot until it boils to de...

America. The land of the free. There’s always been an unofficial rite of passage for single Aussie twenty-somethings to live it up in the country that rom-coms and Sex & The City made oh-so-appealing. But as the age old story goes, isn’t it always the way that when you plan on being single, the universe has other ideas. But the thing about stories is that they can take on many forms.

Well that was the textbook romance of Ali and Jules.

Before people met on Tinder or e-harmony, or sliding into each other’s DMs. A time when two people actually met in person before deciding if they wanted to be together!
