Summary
I’m joined by the anonymous founder of @couplesconfessional, an online safe space for relationships, dating, and singles to share stories, ask questions and start related conversations with other followers – anonymously. We discuss what led her to start Couples Confessional, the benefits of getting advice from strangers, what people are struggling with the most in modern dating, and the most relatable and memorable confessions. We hear confessions about struggling to get over someone you never actually dated, feeling like you’re “too much,” and seeing someone who cuts off communication and then comes back, over and over.
