How do you do love? Let's explore in a unique way. First, I'll perform chapters of my show and then next, my good friend Ang & I will chat about the themes! We've both had a LOT of dating experience plus we have both explored our inner selves and learned a great deal about human interaction as educators over the years. We enjoy talking about how WE do love and how we want to be loved and we have a LOT to say! Do you have something to say? Any comments or ideas around our themes are welcome: Drop us a voice memo that we could add to the next episode: dahlbergme@gmail.com
Our need to be seen, hearing what we want to hear and other ramblings. . .
We unpacked a lot of things in this episode! 1- Why do we have such a deep need for people to know 'how important we are'? 2- Do we just hear what we want to hear at the beginning of a relationship to keep it moving forward? 3- We scratch the surface of commitment and what happens when the unexpected happens and a loved one becomes injured or ill? And, of course more talk about Archie, Betty, Veronica & Reggie! How do YOU do love? Send us a text!

Losing yourself in relationships, lying on the apps and other ramblings. . .
Here we go! Ang is feeling the challenge of wanting to talk about relationships in general without sharing too much about her current beau so we zoom out and respond to more comments and questions including - do we let go of our 'deal-breakers' as search for a partner as we age? How do we not lose ourselves in new relationships? Is it okay to lie on the dating apps? What do you think? We'd love your comments: Will Mag ever want to date again? Do you think Mag is guarded? On a lighter note, wh...

Following your gut and other ramblings. . .
Learn what happened after Ang's THIRD date with that FOURTH guy. At what point do you drop the strategies and just know to trust your gut? Or is that simply retrospective in itself? Also Mag gives away a little more info about how she is living single and free again. What do you think of pictures of people with pets in online dating apps? Send us a comment about that or anything else that inspires you! How do YOU do love? Send us a text!

Online filtering, Gaslighting and other ramblings
OK folks, Ang is online dating now and we talk about a LOT of universal relationship concepts. When we knows we are a 'no' we have to let a suitor down. Why are we so hard-wired not to tell people the truth if it is a negative message? Also, gaslighting - why it is so damaging. Do you have a comment for us? Please send us your thoughts.

Online dating and many other ramblings
This episode further explores love-bombing and an online dating 'how-to' list. Ang & Mag get down to it as Ang gets CLOSER to going online herself.

Being honest with ourselves and other ramblings
Ang & Mag continue the fun, talking and sharing their ongoing life challenges - in relationships that are romantic but really ALL relationships: How being REALLY honest with ourselves can be a game changer; How our reactions to people or circumstances can simply be habits; How being present and in the moment is often what everything comes down to.

Chapter 7 - It's Time
The play concludes with a final reflection back on the same night as Chapter 1 was set in. We talk about a few things from what it means to find the strength to take chances.

Chapter 5 - Monster in my Closet
This episode is the 'mic drop' in our heroine's life where she finally realizes that SHE is the problem and that she has work to do. Our tendency to fixate on the external is common and many of us do have a critical moment or experience that leads us to take more 'responsibility' for the state of our lives and contentment. Has this happened to you? Do tell! How do YOU do love? Send us a text!

Chapter 4 - Middle Ground
Things are getting interesting! Now our heroine has started online dating for the first time in her life. Especially challenging since her last relationship began prior to the modern technologies! Ang & Mag continue to unpack struggling to know when to run screaming and when to stick it out. Plus, they do a deep dive around online dating which is a pretty crazy place to swim.

Chapter 3 - Comfort
So as the show itself gets sillier, we get a little more serious because we delve into the concept around self-love and acceptance. It's a lot easier to think about changing who we are dating than accepting ourselves for who we are! What have you done to find a level of self-acceptance or compassion for your authentic self? Does self-love bring a deeper level of 'happiness' in life or relationships? What do you think? How do YOU do love? Send us a message or a voice memo - I can keep it anony...

Chapter 2 - Eas'ly
After listening to Chapter 2 of the play, you hear of our heroine trying to make it work by changing herself to fit the guys she meets. Ang & I explore these things: Why is it we ignore red flags in the early stages of dating? Or, we settle for a guy who is clearly not a fit OR we morph ourselves to someone different than our authentic selves OR we pull out all the stops and strut our stuff on a level we can't maintain? What do you think? How do YOU do love? Send us a message or a voice m...

Chapter 1 - Enough
We cover all kinds of relationship-talk after listening to Christine reject the picture-perfect proposal. Here are some questions: Why don't we want the more available people? Why are we often more attracted to the 'hard to get' people? What about asking for what we need? Has online dating stopped being effective? Is it okay NOT to reply to texts? How does attachment style impact our relationships? Are people newly separated really ready to settle down again? Now it's YOUR turn. How do YOU do...
