SIDE EFFECTS: DATING APPS DEBATE

Dating apps are either helping us find love… or giving us enough stories for an entire podcast episode. 😂 This week, Priss and Tay are getting into the absolute chaos of modern dating Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, Facebook Dating, catfishing, height lies, instant icks, red flags, and the emotional damage of deciding whether you should redownload an app you JUST deleted. Priss shares how Tinder somehow worked out in her favor and led her to her husband, while Tay gets real about what dating has felt like after major weight loss being perceived differently, wondering if someone actually likes you, dealing with fetishization, and trying to figure out the difference between confidence and protecting yourself. And obviously… it gets unhinged. We’re talking horrible dates, a full-blown catfish situation, a blown tire, calling mom for backup, and those moments where one tiny thing happens and suddenly you’re like, “yeah… absolutely not.” Are dating apps actually ruining dating? Or are they just exposing how weird dating has always been? If you’ve ever swiped, matched, ghosted, been ghosted, deleted Hinge, redownloaded Hinge three days later, or questioned someone’s listed height… this one’s for you. 😂 🎧 Grab your headphones and get your weekly Dose of It. #TheDoseOfIt #DatingApps #DatingStories #ModernDating #WeightLossJourney #DatingAfterWeightLoss #TinderStories #PodcastGirls

Dating apps are either helping us find love… or giving us enough stories for an entire podcast episode. 😂

This week, Priss and Tay are getting into the absolute chaos of modern dating Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, Facebook Dating, catfishing, height lies, instant icks, red flags, and the emotional damage of deciding whether you should redownload an app you JUST deleted.

Priss shares how Tinder somehow worked out in her favor and led her to her husband, while Tay gets real about what dating has felt like after major weight loss being perceived differently, wondering if someone actually likes you, dealing with fetishization, and trying to figure out the difference between confidence and protecting yourself.

And obviously… it gets unhinged.

We’re talking horrible dates, a full-blown catfish situation, a blown tire, calling mom for backup, and those moments where one tiny thing happens and suddenly you’re like, “yeah… absolutely not.”

Are dating apps actually ruining dating? Or are they just exposing how weird dating has always been?

If you’ve ever swiped, matched, ghosted, been ghosted, deleted Hinge, redownloaded Hinge three days later, or questioned someone’s listed height… this one’s for you. 😂
