So, what the hell are you supposed to do? Well, lucky for you, on the latest episode of The UnF*ck Your Relationships Podcast I talk more about: Dating tips to foster a true connection Ways to take the pressure off yourself Dating can be a vulnerable and scary experience, but most things that are worth it are vulnerable and scary.
