  • Dealing with Differences

    08/07/2018 Duração: 20min

    A lot of singles dismiss going out with someone who seems too different from them. But if this describes you, you might be closing the door on people whose differences will make your relationship stronger than you think. When do differences benefit a relationship, and when do they poison it? How can they add vibrancy, and how can they tear the couple apart? What about religious differences? Personality differences? And how can you determine which differences are helpful and which will likely cause harm? Join Micki Lavin-Pell and Molly Livingstone for a crash course in navigating differences while dating, and learning how to allow these differences to enhance your connection to each other.

    When you're going out, you're probably (hopefully?) on your best behavior... and so is your partner. So how can you know if he or she will really be there when you need big-time support? What can you do to find out if you'll be able to trust him when the going gets tough? How can you make sure that he knows that he can trust you? Micki and Molly talk about all this and more, as well as the big question of how honest should you be on a date, and whether showing "the real you" is the way to go or just incredibly stupid.

  • Being Yourself in a Relationship (or suffering the consequences of faking it)

    25/04/2018 Duração: 14min

    Maybe when you're dating, you pretend (a little) that you're interested in things that, maybe, you find a little... boring. Maybe you're just trying to put your best foot forward; maybe you're attempting to impress. But what are the long-term costs of pretending that you're someone that you're not? What happens when your fluid self changes, even if you were originally honest about your likes and dislikes? How does this relate to serious issues such as a person's sexuality, and choices about motherhood and career? And why should Melania Trump listen to this podcast sooner rather than later?
