    Episode 2: Dating App-ventures | ON Finding The One

    This episode’s owls: Darren, Yujing (Sin) Aside from sharing their stories and laughter (#goodvibes), they also came up with the aptly punny title. To my #HuoHuas, thank you again for doing this for + with me. And yes, dinner on me the next time we hang. 💖 And to you who’s here, I hope you enjoy listening to this episode as much as we enjoyed recording it. Take and keep whatever’s good or useful for you: 🌻 Prologue [00:00] Intro “I hope you know that you are special, know that someone cares. Know that we are here for you, if you need a listening ear.” [00:18] Location description. 🌻 Part 1: From chatting up to meeting up. [00:48] Describe your current dating situation. [01:22] What kind of person do you usually swipe right on? [02:21] How do you usually start a conversation on the app? [02:55] How do you end the conversation or take it to the next level? [04:16] How do you gauge if a first meeting is good or bad? [11:40] Share your worst date from the app(s). 🌻 Part 2: Perspective, perspective. [18:41] “A boyfriend/ girlfriend is like a best friend that you have sex with” agree or argue? [22:37] What is the single most important factor in a relationship (for you)? [24:39] How do know if someone is being truthful? [27:25] How do you catch yourself catching feelings? [31:57] Do you believe in ‘The One’? [33:32] Do you think that love is a feeling or choice? [36:02] What are the pros of being on dating apps? 🌻 Epilogue [40:49] Words of encouragement - For those who are STILL using dating apps. [42:05] Words of encouragement - For those who are NOT using dating apps. [44:38] Reiterate 1 major takeaway for this episode's topic(s). In my head, it seemed like a good idea to record while strolling around Botanic Gardens. Learnt the hard way that, I can be too idealistic. I did my best-est editing this episode. The process took me longer and was tougher than expected (still, thank you Adobe Audition, for the normalize/compressor/hard limiter functions). Thoughts like “why am I doing this/ what am I doing this for” kept bugging me. I’ll touch on this in one of the upcoming episodes. Disclaimer: Not sponsored by Tinder/ Bumble/ CMB or the council of dating apps (might exist!). Very serious about doing podcasts together, if, like me, dating apps are just not your thing. ✨
