If you’re like a lot of my clients, you have grumbled many times about people your messaging with, people on the apps, flakey dates - “The common decent thing to do would be {insert what you think they should be doing instead of what they are currently doing here!” If they’d just ask you out already… If the’d just confirm the date… If they just tell you what they want… All frustrating parts of dating. And part of the reason you shake your head at all these people is because you know how they SHOULD be behaving.

We all have these manual and rulebooks for how people should be more like we think they should be. And in this episode we’re going to explore them.
