88. Hard dating truths from a matchmaker who has seen it all w/ Maria Avgitidis (@matchmakermaria)
About this episode
In this episode, you'll hear Matchmaker Maria and I get into a ton of topics, from social media's effect on today's dating culture to whether or not my fiance and I should combine finances. We talk about online dating, meeting people IRL and a lot about how her company's matchmaking services work. We also got into Maria's 12 Date Rule, Green Dress Theory and living with a partner before or after engagement. At the end, we do a rapid-fire round of "Ask A Matchmaker."
