Why do we get so in our heads when we start dating someone new? In this episode, we dive deep into the most common fears people face in early dating — from getting too invested too soon, to navigating intimacy and exclusivity when someone’s seeing multiple people.

With over 1,300 comments from listeners sharing their biggest dating anxieties, we unpack the most relatable ones and offer real, practical ways to reframe them. You’ll hear us talk about:

What it really means when someone wants intimacy but avoids emotional connection
How to slow down without feeling like you’re “falling behind”
Why obsession isn’t chemistry — and how to trust yourself more in the process
The mindset shift that turns “what if I get hurt?” into “what if I stay grounded?”

If you’ve ever found yourself overthinking a text, reading too much into mixed signals, or getting attached too fast — this one’s for you.
