Seeing Other People

Unfiltered: Anonymous joins the podcast to share her healing process from being cheated on, including what steps she took to recover and what finally led her to getting back out there. We hear how she meets her next boyfriend, how he's the polar opposite from her ex, and what green flags he gave off. She share how the relationship unfolds, suspicions she has along the way that he may be cheating, how he reassures her that he isn't, and why she stays. We talk about going through someone's phone, how many times can you give someone the benefit of the doubt, and why being cheated on is not about you. Lastly, we discuss how she's come to terms with her past but doesn't believe that just because her two exes have cheated on her does not mean that every other person she dates will.

I'm joined by a 28-year-old man who shares the story of a short-lived but very intense dating experience that lead him down a path of self-discovery and growth. We hear how their connection was off to a great start on the apps, how it felt like they've known each other forever on their first date, and how they each had a "second date curse" and "third date curse" that they wanted to overcome. He opens up about why she ended it, the feedback she gave, and what mistakes he made that he was able to see in hindsight. He shares his therapy journey, what he's learned, and how he plans to approach dating differently in the future. Learn more about your ad choices.

Carly Silverman is back on the pod to help me answer listener questions! We talk about why we're so frustrated by influencers making grand statements about how much sex you should be having, why we always question “what’s wrong with me,” how we get so in our heads and make wrongful assumptions, accepting that not everyone is going to like you, how to stay positive when you keep losing hope from the dating world, and more.Follow Carly @carlyrsilverman on tiktok and @carlysilverman on Instagram!
