I kick off this solo episode by opening up about career growing pains, feeling sad about the dating world, and the pressure I put on myself to succeed. After concluding my vent session, I answer listener questions about when and how to say "I love you," whether or not I think guys and girls can be just friends, how to handle If someone treats you like a boyfriend or girlfriend but won't call you that, maintaining your independence when you start talking to someone new and being newly single when your friends are in relationships.
