What happens when you say you want a relationship yet act in ways that drive away the exact thing you want? Introducing relationship chicken...which we think is one of THE biggest traps of modern dating. We're discussing why our dating culture often promotes unhealthy dynamics, the reason trying to protecting ourselves doesn't ultimately protect us in the end, and how to embrace your vulnerable side head-on so you don't fall for this trap.
