Summary
I'm joined by Zac Stern, Founder, and CEO of Official, the app for enhancing your relationships. We discuss why dating apps aren’t setting us up for relationship success, the biggest challenges that couples are facing right now, and why we’re so afraid to communicate with our crushes and partners. Zac walks us through what led him to start Official and why we’re more comfortable on our phones than IRL. We answer listener questions about date ideas, how to identify someone’s intentions, are they not interested if they didn’t ask for your number, can a girl change an fboy, are men honest when writing what they’re looking for on the apps, and more.
