S&M After Dark: What’s Alive for Us Right Now

We’re doing something different this week and recorded after hours and decided to share where we’re both at in dating and what’s alive for us right now.  Buckle up, buttercup!

We haven’t talked about the dating apps in a while.  Megan gives an update on that (spoiler alert- frustration ensues) and we talk about intentional dating and overall respect.  We’ve both had experiences with people that seem self-absorbed lately so we delve into that further and offer our thoughts on why that may be happening (oh, and the importance of self-awareness because how could we not).  And we talk about breaking trust and the repair that needs to happen to be in a healthy relationship. So, lots of topics- we went on an adventure of sorts. 

Then Shannon gets into what it means to be an empath vs having empathy.  We talk about compassion and the 3 strike rule, how hurtful it is when someone’s actions don’t line up with their words, and healing in a relationship.  Which leads us to talk about what we’re both looking for in a relationship.

Megan asks Shannon for her thoughts on speed in a relationship and feeling at peace in a relationship.  We also get into post relationship reflection- the fun stuff!

We threw in a PSA for men- take the chance and ask her out even if you think she’s out of your league!

And we ended talking about an upcoming speed dating event that we’re helping to run.  Update on that coming soon!
