    "Men in Berlin are very lazy or horizontal", Mimi from London is visiting the podcast! She talks about her journey of dating in London, before, during and after Covid, including finding the difference between what you think you want and what you really want. She talks about figuring out what she really wants now. Spoiler: It is not finance bros in suits. She also discusses how dating apps are not the real world: "I have the administration down now. I think I was too polite and too reserved in some of these conversations." Listen and learn!

    1.8 There is hope and maybe green flags?

    Catherine is inspired by a lot of positive stories of happy relationships on Facebook and Amy tells a bunch of cute stories.  Is the person you are dating showing green flags? Like they may not be a bad person, but are they just "there"? Also, dating is like choosing a dope bike. But choosing your dream bike is even more pressure, because you can't dump a bike.

    1.7: Got Trauma?

    Flirting - Why can't Berliners do it? Also, a poly woman doesn't have everything she needs in her relationship, should she end it? We use an economic theory to work out an answer. Got Trauma? Yes, because everyone has it. When is a good time to tell your partner about this? Note: If you would like to find a therapist in Berlin, this is a very helpful website: https://www.therapie.de/psyche/info/ (you can also search based on location, if they are open to taking new patients, types of therapy, and the languages they are able to offer therapy in.)

    1.6: Tschüß, next!

    The German word "Tschüß" kind of sounds like a sneeze. We wish we could sneeze away the men that are not worth it. We talk about a specific flavor of single man in this episode. Are you experiencing this very typical Berlin single guy? He wants a women to f**k and be his therapist, but it doesn't really matter what woman, or for how long. If you have met his type, at least you are not alone. We talk about an article. You can find it here: https://shanisilver.medium.com/start-blaming-single-men-right-now-ed732ade0ec1 Also, do you grow more when you are single or when you are in a relationship?
