Are men and women making dating—and relationships—way harder than they need to be?
Relationship coach Jake Maddock thinks so.
In this episode of We Have A Problem, Kaylyn sits down with Jake for a candid conversation about modern dating, attraction, relationships, and the ways men and women may be unintentionally sabotaging their own love lives.
From masculine and feminine energy to communication, courtship, attraction and intimacy, Jake has built his coaching philosophy around what he calls a “10/10 relationship.” And some of his opinions about what men and women actually want from each other might challenge the way you think about dating.
We get into what men misunderstand about women, what women misunderstand about men, why dating has become so complicated, the behaviors that kill attraction, and what actually changes when you stop approaching relationships like a battle between the sexes.
We also challenge Jake on some of his more controversial takes—because relationships are complicated, people are different, and there probably isn’t one formula that works for everyone.
Are modern dating habits helping us find better relationships—or are we getting in our own way?
So, let’s talk about it.
