Welcome back to Someone Had to Say It! with Olaoluwa and Temitope Oladokun. In this episode, we’re tackling a hot topic in modern relationships: Is there such a thing as being too picky in dating?

Join us as we dive into the nuances of dating standards, exploring when pickiness is a strength and when it might hold you back from meaningful connection. We unpack:

• What does "picky" really mean? Is having high standards a bad thing, or a sign of self-respect?

• Healthy standards vs. unrealistic expectations: Where’s the line between knowing your worth and chasing a delusion disguised as a preference?

• Fear in modern dating: Are people more afraid of settling for the wrong partner or facing loneliness?

• The “ick” factor: Have you ever passed on a great person over a minor flaw or unmet expectation?

• Choosing well for marriage: What does it mean to make a wise, intentional choice for a lifelong partner?

This episode is for anyone navigating the dating world, wrestling with their standards, or seeking clarity on how to choose a partner with purpose. We explore how fear, faith, and modern dating culture shape our decisions, offering practical and spiritual insights for building lasting connections.

Because dating isn’t just about finding “the one”, it’s about choosing well.
