Summary

In this episode, I virtually sit down with dating coach Damona Hoffman. We discuss what isn’t working for you when it comes to dating, people who don’t date outside their race, being your authentic self, how to date like it’s a job, trying to force a relationship, and more. This episode starts with a solo where I discuss dealing with unemployment in a relationship, dating a divorcée, how young is too young to get married, and what I learned from each break up.

Hey guys, welcome back to We Met It Acme. I'm so excited for today's episode with D'Amona.

0:11.7

She is awesome and just great energy. So I feel like after you're done listening, you're going to be

0:19.3

energized and recharge, which is always a good feeling. And before that, I just wanted to get into

0:26.4

some of your questions that you had submitted. The first one is someone wrote, I've had friends

0:34.1

with this issue and questioning whether guys aren't asking them out because of COVID versus not

0:40.7

interested or getting enough attention via text. I feel like this boils down to like, you know,

0:47.9

the standard answer that I have to this, which is that, you know, if they're interested, they will

0:53.1

text. I don't think even a pandemic will really, you know, hold them back. I think that

1:00.0

there are ways to go out now safely and socially distance and sit at a restaurant outside

1:05.6

and, you know, get a drink at an outdoor bar. So I would say, or, you know, even go in a walk. So

so overly anxious and stressed about my partner in our relationship now because I don't have much

going on in my day and it's definitely taking a toll on our relationship. I really struggled with

1:36.3

this, you know, whenever I wasn't working, I would fixate and I would brew and I would stew and I

1:42.4

would kind of sit and I would say, what seems off to me in my life? Like, what can I obsess over?

1:48.7

So if I were single, it would be like my friendships and if I were in a relationship, it would be that

1:53.2

relationship and it's so hard not to do and you should never beat yourself up for doing that because

1:58.8

it's only natural when we don't have something to focus on. We focus kind of like internally and
