Why He Wants “Exclusive” But Not a Relationship

Dating is a mess right now. Let’s just say it.

In this episode, we sit down with Josie from The Everygirl to unpack what’s actually going on in modern dating — from situationships and ghosting to the rise of “exclusive" but not a relationship.

We also debate:

• Who should make the first move (and who should pay)

• Why “going Dutch” can be a dealbreaker

• The psychology behind ghosting

• The difference between dating, exclusivity, and being in a relationship

• The “taxi cab theory” and why timing matters more than love

Plus, real dating horror stories (including 39 missed calls… yes, really) and the mindset shift that makes dating way less miserable.

If you’ve ever thought, “why is this so hard?” — you’re not alone. Let’s get into it.
