  • What Are Girlfriend Duties vs. Wife Duties? Threads Explains
    Feb 15 2025

    What Are Girlfriend Duties vs. Wife Duties? Threads apparently explains!

    Alright, picture this—you're vibing in a relationship, doing all the things, but then you stop and ask yourself: Wait… is this a girlfriend thing to do/give/be or a wife thing? We're unpacking that strange perpetually chronically online urge. Not in a dusty "play your role" kinda way, but in a WOW we don't have any common operating terms for this way. We're talking effort vs. expectation, investment vs. entitlement, and why the whole "wifey treatment on a girlfriend budget" debate is way deeper than just cooking and cleaning.

  • I Redownloaded the Dating Apps: What Changed? Dating in 2025
    Jan 1 2025

    New Year, So I Redownloaded the Dating Apps: What Changed?

    Dating in 2025: how to use these features to find love in the New Year! I redownloaded the dating apps—Tinder, Bumble, Hinge—you know, the usual suspects. In this episode, I dive into what's changed, what hasn't, and whether the swipe scene is any less chaotic than before. Spoiler alert: it's probably still a lil weird and VERY full of hope! If you've ever wondered whether dating apps are worth the hassle in 2025, this one's for you.

    Along the way, I share some hard-earned dating advice from my time swiping on over 3,000 profiles and making 160+ matches. Looking for love, something casual, or just bored scrolling, this episode has plenty of insights (and a few laughs) to tell you what's been going on since you last opened the Big Apps!
