Summary
A different type of podcast - vlog style. If you have Spotify, you can watch the video on the app, or watch the video on YouTube here. GET READY WITH ME FOR A FIRST DATE in London, one of my favorite cities in the world. This past December I decided to take a solo trip back to the UK to celebrate the holidays, have some good comfort food, and experience what it's like to use dating apps for the first time in A WHILE. In this particular situation, I ended up connecting with a guy on instagram, and then there was a major plot twist...enjoy!

| 0:00.0 | So I'm taking you guys on a date with me tonight in London. It's my last night here and I had no plans on doing this. I had no plans on going, but this guy has asked me a couple times. I've also never done this before where one I'm |
| 0:15.2 | literally documenting the date and two I met this guy through Instagram which to me |
| 0:22.2 | is typically kind of already a red flag because he knows what |
| 0:27.1 | I do for work, he knows about my podcast, he knows about my following and like he knows pretty much everything he's probably done some |
| 0:35.1 | sort of deep dive on me so I don't really know anything about him and it's kind of |
| 0:41.6 | weird going into this situation because it's something that I've never actually done before like I don't meet up with people from social media I never have it's never been my style |
| 0:50.7 | especially because it always raises this fear of mine that someone is going to use me |
| 0:57.6 | and not have the best intentions when going into a new dating situation. |
| 1:02.0 | I just want to make sure that that person is there for me and for who I truly am and not for like my Instagram following or |

| 1:21.1 | has actually used me because of social media and because of what I can like bring to the table as far as my career |
| 1:27.2 | It's an embarrassing amount of times like I've attracted so many men in my past and this is like several years ago but there's a lot of men |
| 1:34.8 | that will use me for you know my connections social events money vacations things that come with the perks of sometimes like being a content |
| 1:46.7 | creator and being an influencer. And I've had guys try to like ride on my coat tails as my dad likes to say my dad is so |
| 1:55.4 | protective of me and every time I tell him I'm going on a date he's like |
| 1:58.3 | make sure they're not riding on your coat tails it's like such a weird old person thing to say, |
| 2:04.3 | but it's true, okay, there is truth to it. |
| 2:07.4 | So I'm a little skeptical, okay? |
| 2:09.6 | I'm gonna give this guy the benefit of the doubt |
| 2:11.2 | because he seems pretty friendly and nice and he sent me a |
| 2:14.4 | voice note over DM and he seems normal. But this could go either really good, it could be in the middle or really terrible. |
