S15E10: Is it Chemistry or Anxiety w/ Ilana Dunn of Seeing Other People

When you start questioning everything from whether they’ll text back to if they even like you, it can make the best of us a big ball of nerves. But is it standard pre-date jitters or a sign something is wrong? We’re chatting with Ilana Dunn about how she went from being the most anxious of daters to feeling secure in her relationship. We discuss how modern dating can make us prone to anxiety, when to lean on your friends vs trust your own instincts, and how to use your past experiences (the good and the bad) to identify signs of a healthy relationship.
