Summary

On this week's Unfiltered episode, I’m joined by Mitchell, a 26-year from Minnesota who shares his experience starting a situation off casual, but later having it turn to more. We discuss how "box theory" doesn't account for how dynamic we are as individuals and how our feelings are constantly evolving. Mitchell opens up about learning from each dating experience and relationship he's had, and how he holds himself accountable for not making the same mistake twice. Finally, we discuss the pros and cons of dating as an introvert.

Think you're alone out there?

0:18.9

Think you're the only one whose ex hooked up with your mom or whose last date ended up being a catfish? Think again. Think you're alone out there? Think you're the only one whose ex hooked up with your mom

0:21.4

or whose last date ended up being a catfish? Think again. My name is Mitchell. I live in Minneapolis,

0:27.7

Minnesota. And just here to talk about, I guess, some of my past relationships and how they've

0:35.5

evolved into relationships I still have today and some that I don't.

0:40.6

I think that's a good way to put it.

0:42.9

I think that's a great way to put it. And I think that that I like how you said that because

0:48.3

that really allows us to like zoom out and think about our own dating and relationship experiences where it's like, oh, yeah,

0:55.7

like everything evolves and then some things work and some things don't. And that's the way it is

1:02.0

versus like that was a failure and I still haven't gotten where I am. It's like, well,

1:06.2

everything evolves the way it should. And there's a lot we can learn from looking back and from reflecting on

where we are now. So I am so glad that you're here to do all of that. Yeah, absolutely. I'm looking

1:35.3

one that you might currently be in. Yes. Yeah, that would definitely be correct. I just, I thought it was

1:43.1

interesting when you were doing the listener questions and

1:46.8

one of them was like, do you like put people in a box of like hookup or relationship? And that was
