Co-Host Susan Winter (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/susanwinter) One of the most enduring stereotypes in the dating world is that women are always looking for a long-term relationship, while men are simply looking to increase their 'body count'. Well, my returning guest is expert dating coach Susan Winter, who is always up for a frank, intelligent conversation about even the stickiest dating topics. So how about it, then? Is the stereotype valid? What does it all have to do with the way men and women are wired psychologically? How is it that some people can't seem to differentiate between someone they could connect with long-term and someone who simply makes them horny? And for women's part, how is it they can fall for a guy who's clearly a 'player', expecting a long-term relationship to come of it? What, then, is the best game plan for a good, decent man who wants to attract the right woman, for a change? Is it still true that how we see relationships modeled as a kid shapes our attitudes, or has the media taken over that role? And what's up with one-night stands anyway? If someone is worth having sex with once, wouldn't you want to keep them around longer than at least one round? And that brings us to the whole 'friends with benefits' situation. What's the middle ground between a ONS and a LTR, and how does that work? What's Susan's concept of 'Love a la Carte' about? How much can a 'dry spell' inhibit us from making good relationship decisions, Captain Obvious? What's Susan's smart way to make sure the right conversation about where everything is headed happens earlier in the relationship than later? I mean, when IS it time to go exclusive?
