This week, we're opening up the hotline with some extra support to help with your questions!

Topics and questions discussed this week include…

How do you decide to go on another date with someone that you're not totally into?
What's the line between people not really communicating and me not wasting my time?
It can be extremely dating to be extroverted with people that are not friends or family. It feels like I am bringing all the energy to the conversations and dates.
Should I still talk to other people when I'm going on dates with people?
An update on a previous caller who moved to another city!
Being empowered to communicate your communication needs.
I keep finding men that just want something casual. How do I express what I'm really looking for?
I'm suffering from app fatigue. It's becoming too much to juggle between different apps.
I found out I can't have kids. How do I tell the guy that I'm seeing?
