Interview with a Dating Disaster Hunter
In this episode, we had a fascinating conversation with an anonymous guest who goes by the name ‘Ask Josie’. Burned by her own online dating experiences, she started a Facebook group 2 years ago aimed at helping other women and warning them about men online. But what started as an exposure group has grown into so much more. Josie talked to us about cat-fishing, the trauma of ghosting and romance fraud. Plus Brenda and Julie share their own online experiences too of course!
Bye for now and stay safe out there. Dating online is no joke.
Read about some online dating safety advice here.
