    Same Girls, Different Boundaries

    In this episode: Overfunctioning No More: We were both in charge of handling everything in our marriages to giant babies and are no longer willing to be the “cruise director” in the relationship. We can get Spicy (and no shade to Sluttiness). 🌶️ 🥵 Reciprocity of effort, with the first date setting the tone. Michelle definitely has stronger dating boundaries than Kat does. We both love men - and that’s the problem. Men aren’t competing with other men, they are actually competing with the peaceful single lives we have built for ourselves. Love doesn’t need butterflies - we are now in a No Drama Zone. Things we are no longer here for: competing with our kids for attention, breadcrumbing, mixed signals, flakiness. No chasing - if he ghosts, we don’t need to overthink it. We block & keep it moving. Dating As A Mom: New Rules - No Second Chances for First Dates.
