Author and professional bridesmaid Jen Glantz brings her hit newsletter to life in this judgment-free space for messy wedding, friendship, and relationship dilemmas. What do you do when an ex comes back and says he made a mistake?
Dating expert Erin Davis — VIP matchmaker at Three Day Rule and the “female Hitch” — joins Jen to tackle one of the messiest relationship dilemmas out there. Together they break down how to know if someone is truly ready for a relationship, why women fall in love through trust and safety (not instant chemistry), and the small dating “icks” that signal something much bigger.
Erin gets brutally honest about first-date mistakes men keep making, why your apartment could be tanking your dating life, and why the first three months of any relationship are far more fragile than people think. Plus: a listener writes in after her ex reappears six months post-breakup — apologizing, saying all the right things, and asking for another chance. The catch? She’s not sure she wants the life she used to want with him.
In this episode:
- Why getting a second or third date is where most people lose the relationship
- The first-date rule Erin thinks every man needs to hear
- How women build attraction through trust and safety — not pressure
- How to know if a second chance with an ex is actually worth it
- Why six months of no contact can change everything
- The difference between missing someone and just being triggered
- Dating red flags hiding in your home (yes, really)
- Why confidence beats clothes, grooming, or any dating “formula”
- How to know if you’ve outgrown the person you thought you wanted
