Episode #70 – Bridging The Love Gap with Jenna Birch

March 22, 2018 by Dr. NerdLove Leave a Comment

Normally when I talk about dating issues, I’m talking about issues that primarily affect men, from a man’s perspective. However, it can also be incredibly useful to look at the dating issues that women face as well. Not only does this help overcome misconceptions that men often have about the dating experience for women, but also illustrates ways that our own misunderstandings about relationships and what women want can get in the way of dating success. So this week, I’m talking with Jenna Birch, author of The Love Gap: A Radical Plan to Win at Life And Love about her book, what women go through in the modern dating world and what straight men might want to know about dating from the other side of the equation.

Show Highlights:

  • How men and women approach dating differently
  • Why what we say we want in a partner and what we actually pursue are often so different
  • Laser thinking vs. Web thinking
  • How Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs can affect your love life
  • Why backburnering may not be a bad thing after all

And so much more…
