Is dating secretly a competition? In this episode of Sharing My Truth, Mel and Suzie ask if men actually date better when there’s rivalry in the mix. Do guys bring more effort when they know other men are in the picture—or is it just toxic game-playing disguised as romance? We dig into psychology, ego, attraction, and whether competition makes men step up… or just act out.

If you’ve ever wondered why men suddenly plan dates, dress sharper, or turn on the charm only when there’s “another guy,” this one’s for you.
