Why won't he call me his girlfriend? - MONDAY MAILBAG - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid
Episode description
Feather feather! It’s another Monday Mailbag with Jared Freid, where your dating dilemmas get the Papa J treatment. First up, a listener wonders if she's dating a guy or just a part-time pen pal. After four amazing dates, the daily texting is great, but why does it take him five days to lock in the next hang? She’s debating how to ask for more consistent planning without coming on too strong. Jared breaks down how to communicate your needs without the ultimatum vibes.
Then, we’ve got a long-distance lover on the edge of a meltdown. Nine months of FaceTimes, two visits, future talk, and even marriage chatter—but no “girlfriend” title. Is his “I just need to work on myself” line legit, or is she stuck in a situationship that’s going nowhere? Jared gives his no-BS take on labels, timing, and when to call it quits.
If you’ve ever been caught between casual and commitment, this one’s for you. Hit play and let Papa J guide you through the chaos!
