Ad break

I’m breaking down the real signs someone is actually ready for a relationship beyond what they say on a dating app or how excited they seem early on. I’m also covering what doesn’t mean much on its own (like good morning texts or initial excitement), how long it should realistically take to see these signs, and what you’ll never see from someone who’s truly ready. Along the way, I share personal examples from my relationship with Johnny. At the end, I tackle a dating dilemma from a woman whose boyfriend aired his doubts about her to his friends, which is causing them major issues.

Episode mentioned: are you ready for a relationship?
