Summary

In this episode, I virtually sit down with Jon Birger, author of Make Your Move. We discuss the rise of hook up culture, declining marriage rates, why Jon is anti dating online, if men are afraid to approach women, his theory that men don’t need the chase, why you should date your coworker, and maybe even propose to your male SO! This episode starts with a solo where I discuss feeling safe in a relationship vs. feeling bored, what makes a bache- lorette fun, how Taylor Swift’s red re-release affected me, how Austin was, craving intimacy while you’re single, and more!

0:00.0	The following podcast is a DR Media production.
0:06.5	Hey guys, welcome back to We Minute Act Me. Today is quite the debate. I have on author John
0:14.0	Berger and he wrote a book called Make Your Move and lots of other great books too. And we don't
0:22.1	necessarily agree. And that's okay. And I feel like you like that. Like you like when we don't agree.
0:27.5	So hopefully that will be entertaining to you guys and I'm excited to hear your thoughts.
0:32.7	Gonna answer some of your questions before we get into it. Someone wanted some wedding updates.
0:38.7	What can I tell you? We are still so behind. No band, no floral, no decor. We have a photographer.
0:47.7	We have no makeup and hair yet. Maybe hair potentially. We've got dresses of all kinds.
0:57.2	And I'm starting to have doubts of like, should I be changing so many times? Like do I want to be

1:40.2	It's funny. Like I obviously have thought about just being like, oh should we just like a
1:43.8	lope and save all this money? But just talking to other brides who have been really supportive of
1:49.6	this experience. And you know, they have shared their own. And I think that it's all worth it in
1:56.8	the end. So hoping that that is true. Somebody wanted me to talk about how to get and satisfy
2:04.8	cravings for intimacy while single and focusing on yourself. I don't think that you
2:09.6	like can't satisfy this while being single. I think that you can still go out on dates. You
