The Q&A Episode: Green Flags, Ghosts, and the Guy Who Gifted a Fake Trip to Italy

We’re answering 15 real questions submitted via Instagram—from the deeply relatable to the wildly absurd—serving up hot takes, red flag radars, and honest reflections on what it means to date in an era of soft launches and disappearing acts. Whether you’re questioning your own dating patterns or just here for the chaos, this episode offers equal parts insight, validation, and laughs.
