    I Went On A Date… He Talked About His Ex 😭

    🎙️ Barely Thriving Podcast | Episode 29  In episode 29 of Barely Thriving, we get into a Hinge date gone very wrong… think oversharing, awkward bill splitting, and zero self-awareness. We also talk about: • The “I’m just a girl” trend and using it to justify chaos • Lowering your standards the second someone shows attention • Romanticising the bare minimum • Spending habits that make no sense (but we stand by them) • Non-negotiables that somehow become negotiable • Being the “acts of service” girlfriend who does the most If you’ve ever ignored red flags, settled for less, or convinced yourself “it’s fine”… this one’s for you.
