Summary
Erica Shea is back on the pod to catch up with us about taking time off from dating and finding the strength to end her most recent situationship. We talk about how it's normal (and sometimes beneficial) to be in a dating drought, how she knew it was time to end the situationship instead of continuing in discomfort, as many of us do. Later we discuss mindset shifts and laugh off some hilarious bad date stories.

| 0:05.5 | Hey guys, it's Alana and you're listening to seeing other people unfiltered. |
| 0:10.5 | It's Thursday, so that means real-life daters are coming on to share their real, sometimes shocking, and always unfiltered experiences. |
| 0:18.4 | Think you're alone out there? |
| 0:19.6 | Think you're the only one whose ex hooked up |
| 0:21.6 | with your mom or whose last date ended up being a catfish? Think again. Hi, I miss you. I miss you too. |
| 0:28.1 | It's been a minute. It's been a minute. Also, I'm literally sweating balls. Like, it is a thousand |
| 0:34.4 | degrees in New York. I don't know what it's like in San Diego now. |
| 0:40.5 | It's like warm, but it's definitely not the humidity of New York. |
| 0:41.3 | So it's different. |
| 0:43.0 | I'm like unwell. |

| 0:53.0 | Do you get it? |
| 0:56.7 | Yeah, it's from Ted Laso. Okay. So first of all, I haven't recorded in this spot. I'm like in my dining area. I haven't recorded here in a minute. Okay. |
| 1:01.1 | This is like where I eat. But today for some reason, I was just like feeling it. Maybe because |
| 1:06.8 | it's further away from the window and I don't want to sit on me. But, yeah. Okay, so I have this believe sign above my bedroom door. It's yellow construction paper with believe written. And it's from Ted Lassow. And the thing about the sign is this is where I do most of my meetings. So like Zoom meetings, people either get it or they don't. And if they get it, it's this like instant connection. Like we vibe. I know I'm going to like land the deal if it's like a partnership. And if they don't get it, they think I'm like a live, laugh, love, girlie. Oh, and you're like, no, no, no. I'm just like so funny and like quirky like Ted Lasso. It's so high risk, high reward. That is super funny. No, yeah, of course I get it. |
