Episode notes

A lot of people, they meet on the apps and they're like, well, I need to talk to this person for a long time to figure out, do I want to meet up with them? And so it's really critical to shift from online to offline to see not do I like the way you text, but do I like being around you? The longer we go before we meet up, the more that fantasy grows. Instead of creating that fantasy in your head, meet up with the person as soon as possible,. But meet the real them, not the version of them that you've created in your head.

Logan Ury helps Glennon’s former husband and co-parent, Craig Melton, navigate the wild world of dating as a grown up: How to identify your patterns that aren’t working for you; how to know if something’s really a deal breaker; why dating in your twenties is like “start-up” while dating later in life is a “merger”; an honest audit of Craig’s online dating profile; how to ensure you’re meeting who you want to meet; and how Craig factors whether or not Glennon and Abby will like who he’s dating.
