Today's guest has come hotly requested by many of you and we're so happy to dissect the not-so-happy topic of childhood trauma with her. Anna Runkle, aka the one and only  @CrappyChildhoodFairy , is the author of the upcoming book "Re-Regulated" (releases October 1, 2024 - preorder below). She has amassed a whopping 860K+ Youtube subscribers with her content covering how to heal from Complex PTSD—or as she has coined, Childhood PTSD. If you struggle with regulating your emotions, if you get stuck in “looping,” repetitive, negative thoughts, if you struggle with anxiety, depression or overwhelm, or if you always find yourself with unavailable or inappropriate partners, it's highly possible a childhood of neglect or abuse might be to blame. Anna knows the experience well because she lived it herself. Today she breaks down the symptoms of CPTSD as well as her tried and true techniques to regulate your emotions and regain control of your life and your relationships. Listen on to heal!

Hi Shandy's So, we wanted to pop in here - not to release a new episode (we will soon, don’t you worry) - but to let you know about another podcast that we think you will love. You know we love reality TV, we know you love reality TV, and another podcast that shares the same addiction is…The Bravo Docket! The Bravo Docket is a podcast where reality TV meets the courtroom. The show is hosted by two practicing attorneys, Cesie and Angela, who have a passion for pop culture and dive into the juiciest lawsuits and legal battles in the world of Bravo. But don’t worry, if you aren’t a Bravo fan, this podcast is still very entertaining and informative - plus they talk about legal topics beyond Bravo… like high asset divorces in general, and Britney Spears conservatorship. So, make sure to go follow The Bravo Docket wherever you’re listening to this podcast now, so you don’t miss an episode! Whether you're here for facts, fun, or Law 101, get ready to laugh, learn, and lawyer up with The Bravo Docket. To learn more about The Bravo Docket, visit their website https://www.thebravodocket.com/ or follow them on Instagram @thebravodocket and listen every other Wednesday, wherever you get your podcasts.

We're thrilled to debut a new series in our episode lineup, A Day In The Life! These are episodes dedicated to meaningful, intimate conversations with your favorite people! Our first ever A Day In The Life guest is none other than Dave Neal, standup comedian and host of The Rush Hour podcast! This is a man who never seems to sleep, and our curiosity finally got the best of us so we decided to ask him for ourselves: Where does he find the time to do so much? What's the hardest thing about running his empire? Where is the weirdest place he's ever recorded, and what has been a "pinch me" moment in his meteoric growth? Listen on to find out!

Caller sessions are back in session! Today we're joined by two lovely callers: Our first caller, Ali, has found herself PLANNING the reunion of an old friend group. However, she's been feeling ostracized and like maybe she's outgrown this circle. Should she simply not attend the reunion that she's planned, or is that more trouble than it's worth? Our second caller, Kat, is a Shandy who we've actually met in person (in Switzerland!) Her close relationship with her aunt has been strained lately and she's not sure why or what to do. Is it better to let this sleeping dog lie, or should she confront her beloved aunt? Listen on for the Shandy take!

If you're single and sharing an Airbnb with couples and even some families, should you pay the same amount for a room in the rental, even if there's only one of you?

Attachment Styles are at the core of SO many relationship dynamics yet so few of us know much beyond "secure", "anxious", and "avoidant". Isn't it about time we learned WHY we behave the way we do so we can learn how to stop getting in our own way? We're thrilled today to be joined by Eli Harwood, aka  @attachmentnerd , therapist, author, and attachment theory expert! Eli has amassed a massive following on Instagram with her attachment expertise and analysis. She is the author of "Securely Attached: Transform Your Attachment Patterns Into Loving, Lasting Romantic Relationships" and the upcoming "Raising Securely Attached Kids: Using Connection-Focused Parenting To Create Confidence, Empathy, and Resilience", so we could not be in better hands! Today Eli breaks down those famed Attachment Patterns (spoiler alert: there's WAY more to this than secure, anxious, and avoidant!) and how and why we as adults behave the way we do in our relationships. (As Andy puts it at one point, Attachment is "EVERYTHING"!) We learn how much of a role gender plays, why some of us are different in platonic vs romantic relationships, and how much is nature vs nurture. There are also parenting questions for our caregiver Shandies out there! Shandy also gets personal with their own experiences that have shaped their own attachment patterns. Finally, the big question: HOW DO WE HEAL? Eli has the answers you've been waiting for and manages to deliver them in the most relatable and easy-to-understand way. As Shandy puts it, you just might see your childhood flash before your eyes!

At the heart of so many relationship questions we've received—and relationships in general—is a common thread: EMPATHY. This "healing force", as our esteemed guest calls it, has the power to not only heal our relationships with others, but with ourselves. So why do so few of us understand its powers? Today we're honored to be joined by THE foremost expert on empathy, Dr. Judith Orloff, dubbed “the godmother of the empath movement.” Dr. Orloff is a board-certified psychiatrist and the New York Times best-selling author of several books, including 2017's landmark "The Empath’s Survival Guide" and her latest, "The Genius of Empathy: Practical Skills to Heal Your Sensitive Self, Your Relationships, and the World". Today she helps dispel the misconceptions around empathy, demonstrates how to draw healthy boundaries, and explains the transformative, healing power of SELF-empathy. She explains why it's OK that your partner isn't the same empathy "type" as you, whether or not you can have too much empathy, and how to approach someone whose beliefs you fundamentally disagree with. Today's conversation is the warm hug you needed and will hopefully inspire healing in your more complicated relationships, especially the one you have with yourself.

In case you missed our Confessions Of A Matchmaker episode with Maria, aka Part 1, it's here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dear-shandy/id1525795747?i=1000597672805 Today Maria returns to answer follow up questions from Part 1, but also to give us her tough-love and honest take on the rules of dating. Sharpen your pencils, Shandies, because Dating School is in session! How is swipe culture affecting dating today? What's Maria's 12-Date Method, and her Pre-Date 3-2-1 Prep? Who pays on the first date, and does she believe in living together before getting engaged? Finally, what is Maria's "controversial" opinion, and will Shandy agree or disagree? As always, Maria's brutal honesty is a breath of fresh air and Shandy's delighted to welcome her back!

For our first Hot Topic episode of 2024, we wanted to shake things up a bit! We often bring on therapists to discuss matters of the mind, but since so many of us struggle with overthinking and analysis paralysis, Sharleen felt it was time for a different conversation. What if we weren't haunted by the choices not chosen, the pros and cons lists, the indecision that keeps us from feeling truly confident in our decisions? What if, instead of attempting to "logic" our way through life, we listened to—gasp!—our *intuition*? Our guest today is Natalie Miles, acclaimed channel, psychic medium, writer and author of the best selling book “You Are Intuitive. Trust Your Truth. Take Back Your Power.” But whether or not you believe in psychic abilities, this conversation is still for you. Natalie is not here to change your beliefs, but rather to help you tap into your OWN intuitive gifts, the "higher power energy" inside you that is there to guide you towards your truest self and most fulfilled life. Today, with Natalie's help, we discuss intuition vs instinct, intuition vs hopes/goals, and how to distinguish between intuition and anxious thoughts. She gives us tips on getting out of our head and into our body, explains why Google isn't your friend, and inspires you to notice the part of yourself so many of us have lost touch with. That's right, Shandies, today we're going a bit woo-woo (or as Andy puts it, wee-woo), and we hope you're as inspired by this conversation as we were!

It's Caller Day! Today we're joined by two lovely callers. It may be very early in their relationship but "C" and her boyfriend are madly in love—would moving in this early on ruin a good thing? Our next caller, Hannah, is childfree by choice, yet her boyfriends never seem to believe her when she says this. Are they all jerks who don't believe a woman when she tells them who she is, or is she the common denominator in the types she's attracting? Listen on for the Shandy take!

It's a BIG day, Shandies! We've been wanting to pick the lovely Katie Thurston's brain since we first recapped her Bachelorette season 2.5 years ago, and at long last, that day is here. Plus, it's been awhile since we've had a Confessions episode and we're thrilled this former Bachelorette and current star of F-Boy Island could make the time to join us! Katie's had a very busy and very public last 3 years, so today we talk the ins and outs of watching yourself back on TV, whether contestants behave differently IRL versus on TV, what she's learned about human nature after being on the receiving end of MILLIONS of opinions. What has been the key difference between dating "civilians" versus celebrities, has her notoriety helped or hurt her love life, and has her time on TV changed her personal relationships? And for our longtime Shandies, don't worry, Andy also brings up THOMAS! Multiple times. (See time stamps!) Don't miss Katie on Season 3 of F-Boy Island, currently airing on Hulu and the CW!

Today's the day, Shandies! We've been wanting to cover the topic of childlessness for quite some time, and when Sharleen read Ruby Warrington's newest book, Women Without Kids, she wouldn't take no for an answer in getting Ruby on the podcast! This conversation is for every person, with or without kids. Few books have impacted Sharleen the way Ruby's did, and today we dive deep into the world of Womanhood WITHOUT Motherhood. How often have you heard terms like "maternal instinct" and "labor of love", or phrases like "You don't know true love until you have children" and "But who will look after you when you're old?" Today, with Ruby Warrington's expertise, we examine The Motherhood Spectrum, the truth behind "having it all", and whether or not we can argue with "nature". We discuss the (very real) fear of regret, finding meaning and legacy as a non-parent, the guilt in not bestowing our parents with grandchildren, how to age as a woman in our youth-obsessed society, and of course, Climate Change. This conversation will hopefully guide your heart and help you hear to something inside yourself, versus listening to what so many of us have been conditioned to believe for a lifetime. If you experience grief over the path not traveled or have felt your dearest friendships wither as you and/or your friends have started making babies, this episode is very much for you.

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today Shandy is joined AT HOME for their third ever in-person Love Fest, by a couple whose relationship Shandy got to witness firsthand when Sharleen hosted Bachelor In Paradise Canada! Last Summer Chelsea Vaughn (Bachelor S25 & BIP S7) and Austin Tinsley (Bachelorette S17) met on Canadian soil and left as a couple in love. Because the season didn't air until a near year later, Chelsea and Austin had to keep their relationship under wraps for a whopping 13 MONTHS! Needless to say, they've learned a thing or two about each other in the interim! Today Chelsea and Austin join Shandy to share fun Paradise Canada #BTS, how they complement each other, what it felt like learning to text each other (yes, really!), and of course, how they fight!

Today's the day, Shandies! We've been wanting to tackle the ever-relevant topic of NARCISSISM since Dear Shandy's inception, however, we insisted on waiting until we could get the best of the best to join us. Our patience paid off as today we're joined by the acclaimed, unparalleled expert on narcissism, the one and only Dr. Ramani. Trust us, she does NOT disappoint! Today Dr. Ramani sets the record straight on the definition on narcissism, how social media has changed the narcissist landscape, and how many of us fall on the narcissism spectrum. She gives us insight on how aware of their own narcissism narcissists are, whether or not they have a moral compass or can improve, and whether or not you can "win" in your battle against a narcissist. We wrap with actionable tips for those healing from their relationship with narcissists, those who have no choice but to live or work with narcissists, and what "red flags" to look out for. Our minds were blown multiple times during this conversation and this is easily one of our all-time favorite Hot Topics to date.

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today is our second ever in-person Love Fest and an absolutely epic one! You watched them meet and get engaged on Paradise S7, and now 2 years later, Bachelor Power Couple® Joe Amabile and Serena Pitt join us in the living room to dissect the ins and outs of their relationship.Today Joe and Serena share their honest first impressions of each other—in Serena's eyes, was Joe in fact the "George Clooney" of Bachelor Nation we described him to be? They get specific with adjectives about each other (yay!), discuss how and when the 11 year age difference rears its head, unpack the early hurdle that took time to overcome, and of course, describe how they fight! This episode is loaded with goodies including Serena and Sharleen's biggest City Hall regret and the surprising ways in which the native Chicagoan and native New Yorker are similar. Finally, a Newlyweds Game that is heavy on "OR"s but not remotely lacking on fun! Who knows who better?

Today's Hot Topic conversation is great for just about anybody, but *especially* those who have considered therapy but haven't pulled the trigger for whatever reason (accessibility, cost, finding the right match...)! Our guest, Owen O'Kane, is an acclaimed London-based psychotherapist and the best selling author of Ten Times Happier, Ten to Zen, and most recently, How To Be Your Own Therapist. But that's not all! Before pursuing psychotherapy, Owen spent a decade working with the dying as a Clinical Nurse Specialist in Palliative Care, which we think adds a unique dimension to his perspective. Needless to say, he is abundantly qualified to help us tackle the journey of self-therapy today!Today, beyond sharing his own personal story of self acceptance, Owen discusses what drives us, victim mentality, gratitude, tips for handling our anxious episodes, what 10 minutes of self therapy a day looks like, and what "The Goal" of therapy even is (happiness? meaning??). Last but not least, Andy picks Owen's brain after his experience working in Palliative Care—what did caring for the dying on a daily basis teach him? This episode has a little something for everyone and even includes a peek into Andy's own thoughts and fears. Whether you consider "therapy" a dirty word or part of your regular vernacular, you won't want to miss this chat!Thanks to our sponsors!- Go to https://www.babbel.com/DEARSHANDY to save up to 55% off your subscription!- Go to https://www.lomi.com/SHANDY and use promo code SHANDY at checkout to save $50!- Go to https://www.nutrafol.com and use code SHANDY for $10 off your first month's subscription!- Go to https://www.athenaclub.com and use code DEARSHANDY for 25% off your first order!More Owen O'Kane:- The Book "How To Be Your Own Therapist": https://amzn.to/3NnIpzS- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/owenokaneten- TEDX Talk: https://youtu.be/SenbZnxn_N8- Website: https://www.owenokane.comTime Stamps:0:00 - Welcome To Owen O’Kane!1:54 - Is The UK Behind The US In Terms Of Therapy “Taboo”?4:32 - Owen’s Story, Part 17:10 - What’s “The Goal”?

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today we're joined by engineer Ivan Hall (Bachelorette S16 & Bachelor in Paradise S7) and his fiancée, anesthesiologist Tailour Robison. These two *just* got engaged and Tailour has never done a public interview to date, so we're thrilled to get the exclusive on this legit power couple.Today Ivan and Tailour share how young love can be mature love as well, how they complement each other, how they fight, and they even prove Shandy wrong on the adage "you break up because it's broken"! Finally, a hilariously academic Newlyweds Game that has Andy on the edge of his seat even more than usual. Who knows who better?

Today's Hot Topic will likely resonate with many a Shandy. If you struggle with perfectionism, your inner critic, feeling the need to prove yourself, and/or analysis paralysis, this conversation is a must. We're joined by Homaira Kabir, author of ‘Goodbye Perfect: How To Stop Pleasing, Proving and Pushing For Others… and Live For Yourself’, whose career is built on the research of how you (yes, you!) can flourish. Today we cover everything from the difference between being a perfectionist and just having high standards, how to not grow resentful when others can't live up to your "perfect" ideals, whether or not perfectionism equates to competitiveness, how not to raise perfectionist children, and how our purpose ties into all of the above. This one really tugged on Sharleen's heart strings and she thinks it will speak to you, too.

Today's Hot Topic dives deep into the world of open relationships! We're joined by author and ghostwriter Emily Gindlesparger, who not only opened her own relationship years ago but discovered her own bisexuality throughout the process. Her new memoir, "Please Make Me Love Me", describes her journey from traditional, straight monogamist to becoming polyamorous with multiple serious girlfriends. Today she shares how she shed her jealousy once and for all, the impact an open relationship had on her primary partnership, the challenges of logistics, and her advice to couples interested in non-monogamy. Emily manages to answer a TON of questions thoughtfully and succinctly, so if you've ever been curious about exploring polyamory—or are just curious how others manage it!—this conversation is for you.More Emily:- The Book, "Please Make Me Love Me": https://amzn.to/3Zwrhfz- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/emilygindle- Website: https://www.emilygindlesparger.comReferenced Links And Books:More Than Two - https://www.morethantwo.comEsther Perel’s “The State Of Affairs: Rethinking Infidelity” - https://amzn.to/3SDhO43Jessica Fern’s “Polysecure” - https://amzn.to/3ZuwKU5Time Stamps:0:00 - Welcome To Emily Gindlesparger!1:47 - What Do People Most Commonly Ask When They Learn She’s Written A Memoir About Open Relationships And Discovering She’s Queer3:27 - Was There A Moment Where She Went From Jealous To Non-Jealous7:06 - Would She Say The More She Leaned Into What Was Making Her Jealous, The Less Jealous She Became8:16 - Did Jealous Get Flipped On Its Head To Where She Found It Enjoyable10:43 - What Made Her And Her Partner Decide To Disclose Everything To Each Other (Versus “I Don’t Want To Know”)14:02 - Did They Ever Fight About This15:06 - How Much Of Her Decision To Open The Relationship Stemmed From A Desire To Live Life To The Fullest Versus Wanting To Explore Her Sexuality19:42 - What Does She Think Is The Most Common Misconception About Open Relationships22:41 - Is It Worth Bringing Up That You Want An Open Relationship If You Know Your Partner Is Deeply Monogamous24:33 - Does She Believe One-Way Open Relationships Can Work26:59 - What Advice Would She Give To Someone Whose Partner Wants To Open The Relationship28:27 - Would She Have Ever Opened Her Relationship Had She Been In A Different Community30:47 - Is A “Logistical Toll” Part And Parcel With Maintaining Open Relationships33:06 - What’s Easier: Monogamy Or Polyamory34:54 - Let’s Say A Couple Wants To Open Things Up—Where To Start39:43 - When Did She Realize She Wasn’t 100% Straight43:31 - What Advice Would She Give Her Younger Self On The Topic Of Her Sexuality45:31 - Does She Consider It A Shame To *Not* Explore One’s Bisexuality48:32 - Would She And Her Partner Even Open Things Up Again51:17 - Did She Tell Her Family And If So, Why54:41 - What Self Work Does She Recommend For Those Contemplating Opening Their Relationship58:05 - Shandy Debrief If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] Dear Shandy: https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsSubscribe and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandyMore SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.comMore AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

How can two people see the same relationship so differently, and what should she have done differently? Brutal Andy honesty ensues.

Ever wonder what a matchmaker would give you as "homework", what demographic makes the hardest client to match, what it costs to hire a matchmaker, or what tops men's and women's lists of desires?

Due to an unexpected change in Sharleen's singing schedule, today's episode contains two Dear Shandy firsts: 1) we're recording remotely, and 2) we're breaking down our personal "greatest hits" Q&As of 2022! We recap and air our favorite Q&As of the year and explain why they stood out to us (and whether or not we'd answer differently). This will be our last episode of 2022 and we'll be taking a 2 week break, so we'll see you back here on Jan 12! THANK YOU, Shandies, for another great year of kindness, analogies, weirdness, specificity, and laughs.

Is the opposite of hate truly indifference, and if so, does my partner "hating" his ex mean he isn't over her?

It's Caller Day! Today we're joined by lovely caller Rosemary who has been with her partner for 2.5 years. The two always thought they might be open to non-monogamy one day, but she's suddenly faced with the reality of that idea and isn't sure what to do. Should she lay down the law and wait for circumstances to be just right, or is there never a "just right" circumstance and should she take the plunge?

To say Shandy enjoyed getting to know these two is a massive understatement (in the words of Sharleen afterwards: "I want to be friends with them.")Today Ben and Stacy join Shandy to share how they went from "just friends" to married with a baby, how they overcame a very relatable early hurdle, Stacy's journey from believing she didn't want kids to wholeheartedly loving their son Logan, and of course, how they FIGHT!

Today's Hot Topic theme addresses the relationship you have with yourself—your deepest desires, your beliefs, and what might be getting in the way of your own goals and happiness. Our guest, Roxie Nafousi, wrote THE book on manifesting and has been hailed “the manifesting queen” by Forbes and “the face of manifesting” by The Times. While the idea of manifesting might seem surprising for longtime Shandies, we were truly blown away by the ideas and perspectives Roxie shared in this delightful conversation. If you've ever felt your dreams were too lofty or have struggled with fear and imposter syndrome, trust us, this episode's for you.Thanks to our sponsor!- Go to https://dailyharvest.com/SHANDY to get up to $40 off your first box!More Roxie:Book "Manifest: 7 Steps To Living Your Best Life" - https://amzn.to/3Fgu5GVInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/roxienafousi/Website - https://www.roxienafousi.comTime Stamps:0:00 - Welcome To Roxie Nafousi!1:13 - What Motivated Her To Write A Book About Manifesting4:52 - What Is Manifesting And How Is It Scientific?8:31 - What Are The Top Misconceptions About Manifesting?11:22 - Is The Term “Manifesting” Overused?12:53 - How Should One Get Started?19:38 - Sharleen’s Q: What If You Don’t Even Know What You Want?25:33 - Andy’s Q: What About Misdirected Talent?30:59 - Are There Certain Areas Of Life That Are “Easier” To Manifest?33:40 - How Does She Reconcile Manifesting And The Adage “You’ll Find It When You Stop Looking”?37:59 - Thoughts On Realism, Entitlement, And Toxic Positivity44:28 - What About True Skeptics?45:56 - Tips For Recovering When What You Manifested Didn’t Come To Be?51:31 - How Do You Know What You *Think* You Want Will Actually Make You Happy?54:00 - If There’s One Takeaway She Wishes The Shandies Would Have From This Conversation, What Would It Be?56:09 - Shandy DebriefIf you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] Dear Shandy: https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsSubscribe and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandyMore SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.comMore AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It's Caller Day! Today we're joined by not one, but TWO delightful callers. Our first caller, Ray, has been texting with a guy daily for 6 whopping months. The catch? They live in different countries and have never even kissed. How can she take things to the next level? Our second caller, James, had his "number" used against him towards the end of his last relationship. When, if ever, should one share The Number, and is honesty really always best?

Today's Hot Topic conversation finally tackles a common theme among our Shandies' relationship questions over the last 2 years: What to do when one partner wants to get frisky way more than the other? Shan Boodram, our esteemed expert joining us today, could not be more qualified to take on this subject: Shan is a certified sexologist and sex and intimacy educator, among her many other qualifications, and she helps us navigate how to broach the topic of wanting more sex, how to work towards raising one's own libido, how to communicate likes/dislikes in the bedroom (without killing the mood), and how to get back into sexy time postpartum. Shan is as fun as she is knowledgeable and we guarantee you'll both laugh and learn something new throughout this conversation!More Shan:Book "The Game Of Desire" - https://www.thegameofdesire.com/buyLovers And Friends Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/id1586679298Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/shanboody/Website - https://www.shanboodram.comShan's Turn-On Trigger Quiz - https://www.thegameofdesire.com/quizTime Stamps:0:00 - Welcome To Sexologist And Intimacy Educator Shan Boodram!3:16 - What Is Sexology And Why Did She Get Into It?8:36 - Tips For Couples Navigating Mismatched Libidos13:55 - Does Bringing It Up More Scare It Away?20:14 - For The Partner Who Wishes They Wanted Sex More27:56 - Comfort and Familiarity29:29 - Turn-On Triggers31:12 - Where’s The Line Between Maintaining A Sex Life With A Low Libido Versus Agreeing To Have Sex When You Don’t Want To? 35:44 - Does More Beget More?37:55 - Advice For Sex And Intimacy Postpartum 40:53 - Tips For Orgasming43:44 - Tips On How To Get A Partner To Change What They’re Doing Without Killing The Mood?46:12 - True Or False: Ejaculation Is Good For Men’s Health50:32 - Thoughts On Today’s Swipe Culture And Dating Climate 57:42 - Shandy DebriefIf you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] Dear Shandy: https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsSubscribe and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandyMore SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.comMore AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It's Caller Day! Today's lovely caller, Hanna, is happily married with 3 young children. Everything's as it should be in their very small town, but she feels drawn to nurture her personal and social lives with a move elsewhere. Sounds simple enough, but when she considers one option, she can't help but weigh the pros of the other. At what point does a fear of a choice not taken become a fear of making any choice at all?

Today's conversation has been a loooong time coming! So many of your questions over the last 2 years have swirled around whether or not to become a parent, or seeking #parenthoodclarity. Since Shandy is far from qualified to give you advice on the matter, we're thrilled to be joined by clarity coach Keltie Maguire who also happens to be #ChildfreeByChoice. Obviously none of us can answer this deeply personal question for you, but what we can do is have a conversation. We chat about everything from how Keltie came to make her decision, the shades of grey of uncertainty, "but who will look after you when you're old", and our thoughts on regret. Just as this is personal for you, it's personal for Shandy, too, so please respect us and each other when discussing.More Keltie:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/keltiemaguireWebsite - https://www.keltiemaguire.comTime Stamps:0:00 - Welcome To Clarity Coach Keltie Maguire!3:07 - Getting To Know Keltie5:03 - When And How Did She Decide To Be Childfree?14:07 - Does She Get This Question As A Clarity Coach?17:30 - How Much Does She Think Her Lifestyle Has Informed Her Decision?20:30 - Her Thoughts On The Following: "Having a baby is like getting a tattoo on your face.

This is Sharleen's all-time favorite Hot Topic conversation. You will probably also learn more about Andy's mind and thought process here than in any other episode Shandy's ever done.Are you deeply moved by sad music? Do you find comfort in a rainy day? Does the word "poignant" resonate with you? If you answered "yes" to these, you just may be the Bittersweet type. (Spoiler alert: so are both Sharleen and Andy!) According to our esteemed guest, author Susan Cain: "Bittersweetness is a tendency to states of long­ing, poignancy, and sorrow; an acute aware­ness of passing time; and a curiously piercing joy at the beauty of the world." She argues there's great power in the bittersweet outlook on life and why our society has been so blind to its value. We discuss everything from being inherently melancholic in a happiness-obsessed culture, to navigating being a Bittersweet type's partner, to several existential questions of Andy's.To say this episode was a highlight of Shandy's near two years of podcasting is an understatement.

Today we have the pleasure of speaking with Blair, the “exvangelical” brains behind @TalkPurityToMe, a humorous account dedicated to unlearning the shame taught by purity culture, both on Instagram and TikTok. Purity culture, based on the belief that sex should be had only within heterosexual marriage and that all lustful thoughts before marriage are sinful, has been a theme among our Shandies' questions, so we're excited to finally have a conversation on the topic. With Blair's help, we unpack everything from how to go from sex being bad to suddenly a beautiful part of marriage, navigating judgment from friends and family, and the ways in which purity culture resembles abuse. If you're currently struggling to shed the shame "purity" has cursed you with, or if you experience shame but aren't exactly sure where it comes from, today's conversation just might be for you.Thanks to our sponsors!- Go to https://www.talkspace.com and use code SHANDY to get $100 off your first month of therapy!- Go to https://www.zocdoc.com/SHANDY and sign up for free to book a top-rated doctor!- Go to https://www.squarespace.com/SHANDY and use code SHANDY for 10% off your first website or domain!More Blair:- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/talkpuritytome- TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@talkpuritytomeTime stamps:0:00 - Welcome to Talk Purity To Me's Blair!2:52 - Defining Purity Culture4:54 - Blair's History With Purity Culture10:10 - How Far Into Her Own "Deconstruction Process" Is She And Does She Still Struggle?13:12 - Her First Sexual Experience14:04 - What Inspired Her To Start An Account Dedicated To Unlearning Purity Culture?15:35 - How Have Her Family And Friends Reacted?20:39 - What Are The Most Common Themes She's Seen In Terms Of The Damage Purity Culture Can Cause?23:52 - Has She Found A Stronger Response From A Particular Age Range?24:14 - Have Any Responses She's Gotten Taken Her By Surprise?25:48 - Are There Any Less Obvious Ways She Thinks Purity Culture Manifests?27:05 - Tips For Shedding The Deeply Ingrained Mindset That Sex = Shame29:17 - Do People Who Leave Purity Culture Tend To Swing In The Opposite Direction?32:21 - Tips For Being More Open-Minded Sexually35:53 - What Advice Would She Give To Someone Staying With Their First Sexual Partner Solely Due To Their History With Purity Culture?40:28 - Tips For Trusting Your Intuition/Hearing That Inner Voice42:06 - Was There A Pivotal Moment That Changed Her Mindset?49:03 - Her Advice To Anyone Wanting To Go On Their Own "Deconstruction" Journey While Maintaining Meaningful Relationships With Loved Ones51:30 - What Is Her Relationship With Christianity Like Today?56:24 - Does She Think There's A Correlation Between Being Raised In Purity Culture And Difficulty Orgasming?57:24 - Does She Consider Purity Culture A Form Of Abuse?59:02 - Does It Ever Get Better?1:01:07 - Shandy DebriefIf you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsSubscribe - https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyListen on iTunes - https://bit.ly/DearShandyiTunesMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandy More SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.com More AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today's guest, Allison Raskin, is a New York Times best selling author and mental health advocate. Her 3rd and latest book, “Overthinking About You: Navigating Romantic Relationships When You Have Anxiety, OCD, and/or Depression” just came out on Tuesday (May 3). When we polled you, our Shandies, over on Instagram about this topic, the floodgates of messages and emails opened, so we do our best to cover the most common themes today, including when to reveal your mental health struggles in a new relationship, how to communicate your needs (and what to leave out), and how to tell the difference between your anxiety and your gut instincts. If you've ever found yourself obsessively agonizing over whether or not someone's right for you, today's conversation just might be for you.Thanks to our sponsors!- Go to https://www.apostrophe.com/SHANDY and use code SHANDY to get your first dermatology visit for only $5!- Go to https://go.factor75.com/SHANDY120 and use code SHANDY120 to save $120!More AllisonBuy Her Book - https://amzn.to/3MRMPNyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/allisonraskinInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/emotionalsupportladyPodcast - https://foreverdogpodcasts.com/podcasts/just-between-us0:00 - Welcome To Allison Raskin!5:19 - When Should One Share Their Mental Health Struggles With Someone They're Dating?9:32 - The Difference Between Process And Content—How Much Should You Share?15:43 - Where's The Line Between Unnecessary Anxiety And Listening To Your Gut?17:28 - Attraction21:24 - How To Combat A Lifetime Of Being Told What A "Right" Relationship Looks Like25:21 - What If Your Partner Doesn't Know How To Help Or Understand?28:35 - Thoughts On If One's Partner (Or Partner-To-Be) Expresses Hesitation Because Of Their OCD?36:01 - How To Prevent Your Partner From Eventually Taking Things Personally?39:58 - Must One Have Their Mental Health Struggles Under Control Before Dating?41:40 - Tips For Navigating Dating When It's A Cause Of Anxiety48:16 - What To Do If Your Partner Refuses To Help Themself?51:43 - Advice For Couples Where Both Parties Are Struggling Individually53:34 - Medication57:31 - What's The Gold Star Response To Give When Your Partner Opens Up About Their Struggles To You?58:49 - Shandy DebriefIf you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] - https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyListen on iTunes - https://bit.ly/DearShandyiTunesMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandyMore SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.comMore AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Parasocial relationships are defined as one-sided relationships, where one person extends emotional energy, interest and time, and the other party, the persona, is completely unaware of the other’s existence.Have you ever wondered how the celebrity in this situation, or the "persona", feels about this dynamic? Today we're joined by accomplished actor, writer, and Youtuber Josh Peck, to chat how it feels to be on the other side. With 3.5 million Youtube subscribers, 7 million TikTok followers, 12.6 million Instagram followers, and having been on TV since age 10, it's safe to say Josh is on the receiving end of millions of parasocial relationships.Can he even process that so many people caring about him or feeling like they know him? How does it feel to know he could be shaping the identities of so many? And does he ever feel a reverse dynamic, where he feels attached to his fans or even betrayed by them? Listen on for a fascinating discussion about human nature, our relationship with ourselves, and the strange dynamic that is parasocial relationships.Thanks to our sponsor:- Go to https://www.hellofresh.com/SHANDY16 and use code SHANDY16 to get up to 14 free meals, plus 3 free gifts!More JoshHis Book "Happy People Are Annoying" - https://amzn.to/3tdttvdInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/shuapeckTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@joshpeckYoutube - https://www.youtube.com/c/joshpeckCurious Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/curious-with-josh-peck/id1378163166If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandyMore SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.comMore AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today we're joined by one of Sharleen's closest Bachelor Nation friends, Jacqueline Trumbull, and her fiancé Paul Seli!You may remember Jacqueline from Arie's season, where she, like Sharleen, withdrew in Week 7. She and Paul are both in psychology (Jacqueline is a PhD student at Duke University, where Paul is a professor of Psychology and Neuroscience), so needless to say, there's fun analysis of relationship dynamics in today's conversation. We learn how Paul overcame jealousy in the early stages, how their psychology backgrounds play a role in their relationship, and their thoughts on The One.

It's Caller Day! Today we're joined by TWO lovely callers. Our first caller, Lisa, is in the very early stages of dating a guy who seems accompanied by red flags. Should she end things before she gets invested, or is it too soon to throw away the first "butterflies" she's felt in awhile? Our second caller, Danielle, is an introvert in a relationship with a full-blown extrovert, and she feels their differences in this regard could be causing a red flag. Should she attempt change her ways or does this speak to a deeper problem?

In keeping with tradition, we're doing something a little different to ring in the New Year. This topic has been requested for awhile now, so today, inspired by Episode 1 (How We Met) and Episode 21 (Our Proposal Story), we're doing another throwback! We're going back in time to January 2015 thru September 2017, to what happened after Andy proposed. Listen on to hear why we waited 2.5 years for a wedding, what expenses got out of hand, how "influencer"-dom played a role, "The Moment" that made it all worthwhile, and in retrospect, what we would have done differently!0:00 - Introduction2:35 - City Hall5:33 - Considering A Wedding10:23 - Choosing A Venue14:15 - Postponing14:54 - Deciding To Hire A Planner15:38 - The "Influencer Wedding"20:49 - Thoughts On Having A Planner21:43 - The Dress34:10 - Tasting35:23 - The Cake35:33 - Our Cake Topper36:31 - The Dress, Continued38:06 - Wedding Day41:02 - The Big Reveal42:37 - Our City Hall Officiant43:57 - "The Most Important Day In Your Life"46:03 - Wedding Day, Continued46:47 - The Ceremony50:11 - Cocktail Hour/Reception50:38 - The Moment53:50 - Wedding Favors54:06 - Jewish Traditions54:30 - In Retrospect: Regrets, Surprises, Things We're Happy About1:08:48 - Overall TakeawaysIf you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] Dear Shandy: https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsSubscribe - https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyListen on iTunes - https://bit.ly/DearShandyiTunesMore Dear ShandyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandyFacebook - https://fb.me/dearshandyMore SharleenInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntBlog - http://www.alltheprettypandas.comMore AndyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevineProduced by Gabrielle Galon - https://www.instagram.com/gabsamillionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today's topic came hotly requested and we're thrilled to be joined by a familiar face: Whitney Bischoff Angel, winner of The Bachelor Season 19! As an experienced fertility nurse, as well as a woman who has gone through the egg freezing process herself, Whitney is more than qualified to answer the Shandies' burning fertility questions!Whitney shares the leading contributing factors to infertility, whether or not the age 35 is overblown as being THE age when fertility begins to drop, the step-by-step process of egg freezing (as well as the cost!), and her thoughts on the media's messaging around fertility in general. Whitney really is a wealth of knowledge and this conversation was both so enjoyable AND informative for us. We hope you think so, too!

Have you been seeking marriage or a longterm relationship but find it eludes you? Have you ever wished someone would just give you the honest truth about what's up? Today's guest is the famed straight-shooting relationship author, Tracy McMillan. Tracy shares what she believes the single biggest mistake people make when it comes to dating, why she thinks FWB arrangements aren't a good idea, and her thoughts on masculine/feminine energy in a dating climate which, unlike a mere decade ago, forces women to pursue. Whether you're in a happy relationship (in which case I promise this will have you nodding in agreement) or you're single and looking (or not!), Tracy's perspectives on human behavior and relationships are as satisfying as they are insightful.Tracy McMillan is a television writer, relationship author, and was a matchmaker on NBC's Ready For Love. Her viral Huffington Post article, "Why You're Not Married" is Huffington Post's most-viewed article ever (!!) and it inspired her subsequent best-selling self-help book, "Why You're Not Married... Yet". She has appeared on Oprah and Dr. Phil among many others, and her Ted Talk titled "The Person You Really Need To Marry" has over 16 million views.More TracyInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/tracymcmillanBuy Her Book, "Why You're Not Married...

It's Q&A time! We're back, answering YOUR burning questions. 🔥 Does texting style affect our perception of a person, and how good an indicator is texting compatibility for real-life compatibility? If your current flame ended an engagement a mere 3 months before you met, and won't commit for that reason, is he just not into you or does he really just need more time? (And on that note, had Andy met Sharleen only 3 months after his ended engagement, does he think they still would have worked?)

Have you ever wondered what dating and relationships are like when you're a celebrity? How do famous folks meet these days, and when they do, what's different? Do they behave differently in dating than the rest of us, and do "civilians" stand a real chance with them? Our resident celeb is comedian, famed roaster, and podcast host Nikki Glaser! She is brutally honest in her assessment of dating at her (self-assessed) "B-list" level of fame, her own celebrity crushes (including some of Bachelor Nation's finest), and the do's and don'ts of sliding into the DMs of the rich and famous. In addition to being simply hilarious and her trademark unfiltered self, Nikki has poignant takes on love and "The One"—do NOT miss this one! Thanks to our sponsors!

It's Caller Day! Our caller, Kate, has a unique predicament that veers into discussions about mismatched Love Languages and our cultural expectations surrounding proposals.

Have you ever watched a reality TV dating show and wondered what that poker-faced host is REALLY thinking? As Temptation Island fans and general admirers of its host Mark L Walberg's piercing commentary, we're thrilled he agreed to join us for a Confessions episode! Temptation Island brings on four straight real-life couples who are at crossroads in their relationships, separates them for a month, and has them live with (very forward) straight singles of the opposite sex. It originally debuted in 2001, at the start of the reality TV boom, and was rebooted in 2019. As the host of a show with an obviously controversial concept, how does Mark navigate the usual trappings of reality TV "trash"? Does he make his own personal predictions about the couples and their outcomes? Does he pick favorites among them? How much does he really know when heading into a "bonfire"? How has Mark's own marriage informed his ability to spot and call out destructive relationship behavior? Mark is a very open and endearingly honest guest, and whether or not you're a fan of Temptation Island, his perspectives on relationships, love, and life are worth listening to. In case you're interested in dipping your toe into Temptation Island, Sharleen's favorite season is Season 4 (or Season 1 of the reboot), and Andy's is Season 5 (or Season 2 of the reboot).   Thanks to our sponsors!

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today's happy couple is downright iconic in Bachelor Nation: Desiree and Chris Siegfried! We recorded this after they were able to put their boys to bed on the West Coast, which resulted in a very late night and thus very delirious/loopy/giggly chat. Truthfully, this couple exceeded every (already high) expectation: they're refreshingly real and down-to-earth, and simply fun to hang out with.

It's Caller Day! Our caller, Elise, has a predicament that might resonate if you've ever lusted after a close friend. If you found yourself in love with your close friend-turned-roommate, what would you do? What if said roommate had a longterm girlfriend, yet simultaneously seemed to reciprocate your affections?

It's Caller Day! If you've been in a relationship throughout this pandemic, our first caller's predicament just might resonate: How do you reason with a partner who just doesn't see eye to eye with you on COVID safety? Is this potential dealbreaker material? Our second caller's issue is on the other end of the spectrum: If you were dating someone exclusively (to your knowledge), what would you do if you found their dating profile actively being updated? Is it what it looks like? Watch on for the Shandy take! PS—Our first caller, Rebecca, attended an Ivy League school but wanted to keep the school name private, so that's what the bleeps are.

Jealousy is a beast of a topic, so we thought long and hard about who to help us tackle it. Shandy brought the big guns: who better to talk jealousy than the woman who quite literally WROTE THE BOOK on open relationships? We're thrilled to welcome Janet W. Hardy, the co-author of The Ethical Slut, the iconic guide to polyamory that was first published in 1997 and is now on its 3rd edition. As someone experienced in both monogamy and non-monogamy, Janet is no stranger to the jealousy trap. We ask Janet: Why do we feel jealous, what do those feelings often represent, and how can we navigate them? Can jealousy be a good thing for a relationship, and is there such a thing as not being jealous enough? Finally, we pick Janet's brain about open relationships and her personal experiences with polyamory. Can non-monogamy work if it's only one-sided, and do open relationships reflect an inability to commit? Janet is an incredibly frank and honest guest, so Shandy invites you to listen with an open mind and enjoy. "The Ethical Slut" by Janet W. Hardy and Dossie Easton - https://amzn.to/39pWx97 The referenced Rolling Stone article - https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/the-ethical-slut-inside-americas-growing-acceptance-of-polyamory-112319/ More Janet on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/jhardyauthor/ Thanks to our sponsor - HELLO TUSHY!

How soon should you know if the person you're with is "The One", and how much do age and experience play a role in "Knowing"? If you're unhappily married, and if divorce is Door #1 and a life of unhappiness is Door #2, is there such a thing as Door #3?

As "the other woman", which is more ethical: To tell your ex-lover's girlfriend about his cheating ways, or to stay out of their relationship and let her learn those tough lessons on her own? How far does "Do Unto Others" extend, or is it better to trust in karma? And in playing a role in the indiscretion, does one surrender the right to moral high ground? Shandy definitely wants your take on this one!If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyFollow us!Dear Shandy - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandySharleen Joynt - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntAndy Levine - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevine Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Today's episode is the first in our new "Confessions" series! If you could ask a recently divorced man ANYTHING, what would it be? We polled you over on Instagram and you delivered with fantastic questions. Our guest, Dov Davidoff, is a talented comedian, actor, and real estate developer. But most importantly, he's one of Andy's closest friends and was a groomsman in our wedding! He so graciously joins us today to talk the personal struggles of divorce, whether or not he saw it coming, and what he has learned. Open your mind and prepare yourself for brutally honest life lessons... More DovDov's book, Road Dog: https://bit.ly/3jUoJ5Hhttps://www.instagram.com/dovdavidoff https://twitter.com/dovdavidoffhttps://www.dovdavidoff.netIf you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyFollow us!Dear Shandy - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandySharleen Joynt - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntAndy Levine - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevine Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It's Q&A time! We're back in the living room, answering YOUR burning questions. 🔥 Is it sketchy if your boyfriend follows his ex's erotic accounts, and how much does it matter whether or not he tells you about it? Do longterm friends-with-benefits relationships ever lead to actual relationships, and what should you do if you find yourself developing real feelings? And how important is sexual exploration before settling down? Your questions are getting REAL and we're here for it! 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♂️ Watch on for the Shandy take...If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyFollow us!Dear Shandy - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandySharleen Joynt - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntAndy Levine - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevine Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

It's Love Fest time! 🎉 Today we're joined by engaged lovebirds Astrid Loch and Kevin Wendt! These two met on Bachelor in Paradise (Season 5) and got engaged a year later, in 2019. They join us from their new house (which is currently undergoing renovations!) to share their first impressions of each other and whether or not TV played a role. We discuss their thoughts on The One, what their (hilarious) peeves are about each other, as well as housework, handbags, and Dominos. (Unrelated: We also learn what happens to Andy's retired V-neck tees.) Finally, the Dear Shandy Newlyweds Game! Who knows who better?

Just how honest should you be in your dating profile? If you never drink, would it hurt your dating chances to share that? And if you're in your mid-20s and have never been in a romantic relationship of any kind, how can you take control of your love life? Today's episode is all about hard truths and tough love.

How familiar are you with the Enneagram? Have you ever considered how your type plays into your relationships? Today we are joined by certified Enneagram coach Stephanie Barron Hall. The Enneagram of Personality, rooted in psychology, is a typology of nine interconnected personality types. With Stephanie's guidance, we learn more about our own types (Sharleen's a 4; Andy's a 5) and how they play a role in our compatibility, how we feel loved, how we communicate, and yes, how we fight. Reflections and confessions lie ahead! More Steph Buy Her Book - https://bit.ly/TheEnnegraminLove InstagramInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/ninetypescoWebsite - https://ninetypes.co/ If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] and watch the episodes on YouTube! https://bit.ly/SubscribeDearShandyFollow us!Dear Shandy - https://www.instagram.com/dearshandySharleen Joynt - https://www.instagram.com/sharleenjoyntAndy Levine - https://www.instagram.com/machinelevine Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/dear-shandy/donationsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We're back to answering YOUR questions! You guys came at us with some tough topics this time around: Should you and your partner talk about your pasts? What should you do if you and your ex are in the same friend group? Do you only seem to want what you can't have? And after having been on The Bachelor, what was dating in the real world like for Sharleen? Our answers to your burning question lie ahead...

It's Love Fest time! Today we're joined by Vanessa Grimaldi and her then-boyfriend (but now-fiancé!) Josh Wolfe. (Josh proposed 3 days after we recorded this!!) We learn the unique way in which these two got to know each other, how they complement each other, and the hilarious hurdle Josh had to overcome.

You've definitely been there: On a date, and the onus feels like it's on you to ask questions and keep the conversation moving. Is your date self-absorbed, or is there more to this? Could you be accidentally contributing to this dynamic? This caller conversation went in a very different direction than expected, but we loved how it brought us (sooner than intended!) to Nervous Energy. We then segue into a couple of our big first date Dos and Don'ts. Do YOU commit any of these early dating crimes??If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] us every Thursday for a new episode of Dear Shandy!

Can you REALLY be friends with an ex? We're joined by Margie, Andy's ex-fiancée, who conveniently happens to have a PhD in clinical psychology. We go for a stroll down memory lane to learn about their history together. Then we discuss how they came to be friends today and what the key components are to true friendship post-romance. Finally, we get Margie's professional input: What are the biggest mistakes people make when it comes to dating and relationships?

Today is all about YOUR questions... the broader ones, that is. What are our thoughts on prenups, and do we have one? How should a woman deal with a man who doesn't satisfy her? After our meeting, did Andy go on dates with anyone else, or did he immediately close down the shop? And did Sharleen play it cool?

Can you have a genuine connection but still get played? Is age a factor in the likelihood of a guy being a player? And how old was Andy at his most "player-y"? Our caller's story has a magical start but a confusing end that left her wondering what she could have done differently.

We recorded this on a whim, not sure if it'd ever see the light of day. We weren't sure how best to introduce ourselves and kick off a podcast, but since it's our most frequently asked question, we ultimately decided to recap (and reminisce!) about how we met. Watch on to hear how two diehard skeptics who don't believe in fate, serendipity, or The One, somehow found themselves believing in something (almost). If you have a relationship question, write us at: [email protected] Join us every Thursday for a new episode of Dear Shandy!
