Is Modern Dating Too Serious?

Is modern dating actually the problem—or are our expectations? In this episode of Last Date, Jenni and I unpack what's making dating harder than it needs to be. We talk about whether confirming the first date is required, the psychology behind some daters needing to feel like is obsessed with them before even meeting in person, why so many people avoid conversations about exclusivity, and how simply checking in can prevent months of confusion. We also dive into: - When exclusivity conversations should happen - Why immediate chemistry over text doesn't matter nearly as much as people think - Why "high standards, low expectations" might be the healthiest dating philosophy - Why people should stop treating first dates like job interviews - The guy who forgot about Jenni inside a weed shop One of my favorite takeaways from this conversation is Jenni's reminder that dating doesn't have to feel so heavy. Instead of trying to decide whether someone is your future spouse within the first hour, simply enjoy meeting another human being and see what unfolds. If you've ever found yourself overthinking, stressing over exclusivity, or wondering why dating feels exhausting, this episode is for you.
