291. Are No Red Flags a Green Flag? (First Date Vibe Check)

[upbeat music] Jenny, welcome to the Dating Intentionally podcast for our first date vibe check.

How's it going?

I'm really well, thank you.

Yeah, hot here in the UK, but can't complain about the sun too much.

Yeah.

No, it's, it's been hot everywhere.

[laughs] It's, it's rough right now.

Bad.

[laughs]

And I mean, speaking of hot though, your dating life, you got a lot of dates going on.

I do.

So can you tell-

Yeah.

[laughs] Can you tell me and just listeners a little bit about what you're looking for in this season of life when it comes to dating? Like, what's the goal?

So my goal is just to gain confidence going on dates, practice meeting people, um, and yeah, hopefully, I don't want to say...

Yeah, soon be ready to, like, go for a relationship.

Not to say that I'm not open to having a relationship with someone I meet, like, immediately, but I think that's not my main goal at the moment.

Yeah.

That's really interesting.

I think a lot of people listening, they do have the goal of dating for a relationship, but they encounter people who aren't.

So can you just share a little bit-

Mm-hmm

... more about why you know right now you're just in a season of life where you're, you're not, like, trying to get into a long-term?

So I've never really been on dates before.

Um, I've not been in a relationship before.
