64 - DATING - Stop asking why their behaviour is confusing and instead start asking - why am I so attracted to it?

Louise & Dr Tari jump on a quick OPENHOUSE HOTLINE episode to answer a submission about a guy who's behaviour has been confusing, unclear and misleading since a listener first started dating, interacting and sleeping with him. The episode takes an interesting turn when Dr Tari starts to talk more about the listener, than the guy in question. Dr Tari talks focuses the episode talking about the concepts of intentional dating, communication, pacing, boundaries and more and helps shift our perspective on a situation that so many of us have experienced before. Louise shares her personal experience with a similar situation, as well as the concepts of:⇢Why silence drives a cycle of 'pick me, choose me'⇢Why stupid games lead to stupid relationships⇢Why the cool girl needs to die ⇢How communication can alleviate the likelihood of pain, rejection and ghosting ⇢Why you don't 'have to test the sex before investing in them'And more.
