In this unfiltered bonus episode of Vibe N Affirmations: Hallway Chronicles, we're diving headfirst into one of those questions that always sparks chaos:
“How many dates till you clip?”
It started as a hot take—but once the smoke settled (literally), the conversation went way deeper. We talk about hookup timelines, emotional triggers, fake “chill” energy, and whether rules around sex actually mean anything in a time where vibes move faster than intentions.
From first-date fireworks to slow-burn connections, we unpack:
What “clipping too soon” really means—and who decides that
Whether emotional detachment is real or just delusion with good lighting
The silent expectations people carry into casual encounters
And how we sometimes perform "cool girl" energy while quietly spiraling
This is the extended, uncensored version. No edits. No filters. Just hallway honesty and big “don’t lie to yourself” energy. Whether you’re team “same night” or “not until we’re official,” you’ll feel called out—in the best way.
So go ahead, pick a side… and don’t act brand new.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
