09: Love, Sex, Dating, Relationships

If you've ever had a dating experience where you felt you coudn't control yourself or the eventual outcome, that was your genes compelling you to behave in a certain way. This is a double-edged sword. On one hand, you can be optimizing your genes surviving but on the other hand, it may be detrimental to long-term happiness.

We have evolved to enjoy the pursuit of love & sex through dating and relationships. In this episode Dr. Lisle discusses how we can optimize happiness in this area by beating our genes.
