In this episode of Dear Tisia, we’re unpacking the uncertainty that shows up in modern dating — when feelings are real, but consistency is questionable.

✈️ One woman meets a man who flies to see her, asks for a relationship… then changes his mind about long distance later the same day. Two weeks later he’s back saying he made a mistake and wants to try again. Was his hesitation honesty… or a warning sign?

🤔 Another caller is dating a single dad she met online, but something about his living situation is making her uncomfortable. He lives with a gay roommate and plans to continue living with him. Is this a real concern… or an assumption that needs to be unpacked?

🏠 And one woman is nervous to tell the man she’s dating that she still lives with her parents. When does transparency matter in dating — and how do you share where you are in life without shame?

🚩 In the Red Flag Report, we discuss the growing conversation around what some are calling the “Crush Recession.”Many singles say they rarely develop real romantic feelings anymore due to dating app fatigue, situationships, and the emotional exhaustion of modern dating.

👇 Let’s talk about it.
