Summary

It’s Season 7 and Your Favorite Aunties are back and we’re starting with a bang. In this episode, we’re talking about dating in the age of the internet and how the way we post, share, and interact online is changing the game. From switching up your social media presence once you’re boo’d up, to setting digital boundaries with the opposite sex, we’re getting real about what love (and thirst traps) look like these days.


We even get a little personal 👀… sharing where we are in our own relationship journeys and how it’s shifting how we show up online and IRL.


💭 Have you ever deleted a post for your partner? Stopped liking certain pics? Soft launched your boo?

Tell us in the comments or tag us in your stories! We wanna hear all about your online love rules.

Searching for a romantic summer getaway, escape with Rich Girl Summer, the new audible original from Lily Chu. The exquisitely talented Philippa Su returning to narrate her fifth Lily Chu title. This time, Philippa is joined by her real-life husband, Steven Pasquale, set in Toronto's wealthy cottage country, aka the Hamptons of Canada. Rich Girl Summer follows the story of Valerie, a down on her luck event planner, posing as aite's long lost daughter while piecing together the secrets surrounding a mysterious family and falling deeper and deeper in love with the impossibly hard to read and infuriatingly handsome family assistant, Nico. Caught between pretending to belong and unexpectedly finding where she truly fits in, Valerie learns her summer is about to get far more complicated than she ever planned. She's in over her head and head over heels. Listen to Rich Girl Summer, now unottable. Go to audible.com slash rich girl summer.

Let me tell you something. Today, we're going to be talking about what goes down in the DMs. Okay. We need to have a conversation of what types of conversation need to be had in the DMs. You know, because like when you're in a relationship and when you're single, your DMs, you know, how you operate in them, that's a switch. That should switch up. Yeah. I'm wondering though, like, okay. What? Okay. Not trying to be no kind of way. I have not been actively engaged in DMs in a little while. Yeah. Has anything changed in the dating streets in the last two and a half years? Ooh. For me? I haven't put myself out there like how I was. So yeah, it's definitely switched up. I don't get the, I don't get the DMs the way that I used to. When I was like more active and you know, just really putting myself out there. So it's changed for me. It changed for me. So yeah. Because you know that like the dating landscape changes every few years. Yeah. And that's why I feel like when we first started talking about dating we will always say if you haven't been out here Chill out right because it changes like quite often. Yeah, so with everything going on in the world I'm like, I don't know. I don't know if it's still like it used to be I mean sometimes you do run into Some guys who are and you think like okay, who gonna be the boy?

3:44.2

Okay, Miss Gural, you know, but that's another part of the conversation. So I mean, I think that part of dating is real, whatever to navigate. Just getting over like seeing who you're compatible with, what things are gonna work and what things are not gonna work. So how do you figure out like, how do you figure out what works and what doesn't work? Baby, as soon as you get something that don't work, as soon as you get something that don't work, that's immediately how you know what it's gonna work. What's gonna fly, what's not gonna fly, okay? Baby, sometimes you can't say what you do want, but you can't say what you don't.
