153: Ask The Everygirl: I'm Demisexual and Dating is So Hard–Tips to Meet Someone IRL?
"I’m in my mid-thirties and have never dated anyone. I think I may be demisexual because while I like the idea of a relationship, I always talk myself out of the things I’d need to do to meet people in real life. Online dating terrifies me, especially with my lack of dating experience, and I have no idea how to actually flirt or convey interest (I’m concerned I’m giving off a general ‘unavailable’ energy when I don’t mean to). One of my goals for 2025 is to try to meet someone. Any tips?". Josie is joined by Everygirl editor McKenna Pringle to discuss why dating feels like such a bummer RN, tips to give off "approachable energy," and how to meet people IRL. Josie and McKenna chat about how to find confidence in dating and why there should be more demisexual rom-coms (Netflix, are you listening?). Stay tuned at the end of the episode to hear stories of how listeners met their significant others off the apps.
