How important is it for someone you’re dating to be a good texter? Does this show that he’s just not that interested in you? Or is it a red flag for someone who isn’t going to be a good communicator in other ways? In this episode, Olivia fights for the importance of being a good texter especially early on. There’s something about keeping the intrigue there in between dates, and even keeping other more negative thoughts at bay (“is he just a bad texter or is he ghosting me?”).
In this episode’s 60 Second Sips, we talk about swiping related to food and eating habits. And we learn that while Amy is okay with questionable texting behaviors, she’s okay with someone feeding her on a first date. And just for the record, ranch is gross.
And since we’re disagreeing about everything this episode anyway, we might as well talk about bedtime now that we’re in our thirties. This includes the appropriate amount of sleep to get, sleep hygiene habits, caffeine intake, melatonin, sleep sounds, sleepytime tea, and more. This becomes a surprisingly heated discussion; did we all wake up on the wrong side of the bed today??
We wrap up this argumentative episode by talking about something else we disagree about – friends with benefits! Are we too old for this? Is a good FWB relationship the exception and not the rule? Is it possible to be FWB without complications? Mom, stop listening when we get to this part of the episode!
