Stevie B and I talk about limbo land, that murky space so many people end up in early on in dating. The situationship. Not quite together. Not quite nothing.
We talk about how any interaction between two people is a relationship, whether you label it or not. And how often one person is being clear about what they want, while the other is quietly hoping it’ll turn into something more.
We get into wishful thinking. Reading into moments. Convincing yourself that chemistry, closeness, or intimacy means commitment even when the words say otherwise.
I share honestly about our early days and how easy it is to override what’s being said because you want a different outcome.
This episode is about:
- The cost of staying in the grey
- Why clarity matters more than potential
- How self-respect gets eroded in limbo
- And why honest communication is the only way out
If you’ve ever found yourself waiting, hoping, or trying to make something become what it isn’t this one will land.
