We're back for SEASON 20 with something you need to hear right now. In dating, we think we're asking for too much, when in fact we ask for far too little. So we say – scare them away. Because dating is just is much about attracting the right person as filtering out the wrong ones. We're discussing why we're so afraid to scare away the wrong people in the first pace, how to release the mentality that you may "mess" things up, and ways to start dating with your needs at the forefront.
