TalkItOver: The only dating show that begins in bed

Money Imbalance In Relationships

One of the toughest struggles in the dating process is to create an open line of communication about money. What if your partner is experiencing a job loss due to the pandemic or going through a career change? Can you openly talk about it? Would you feel diminished if you are dating someone who has more money/status than you? How do you feel about a partner who earns less and cannot afford to pay for dinner? Is financial status one of your priorities in choosing a partner? What is the difference between self-worth and net worth? 

We are not trying to find the right answers. We are just talking it over in our Big Ole Bed. Now let's pull back the sheets...

What is your sex language?

We already know that there are 5 Love Languages (check the episode from Jan 26, 2021). Apparently, there are another 5 languages that define our relationship with sex and each other. How do you like to be loved? Have you ever felt like you and a partner were not speaking the same language in the bedroom? Have you ever felt misunderstood for your sex preferences or judged your partner for his/her? But wait, are there only 5 categories on what is turning us on and how we most like to receive pleasure? Aren't we all unique and sexually wired differently? 

Let's pull back the sheets and talk it over. All our guests are in a great mood and ready for a hot and fun discussion in our Big Ole Bed.

What are your biggest fears in starting a new relationship?

Do you know what happens if you invite a writer, a comedian, a marriage therapist, a wellness coach, and a producer to the show and put them in one big ole bed? - you have an amazing episode of TalkItOver. And we are going to talk about the biggest fears in starting a new relationship. 

Have you ever heard that the word FEAR is an acronym for False Evidence Appearing Real? Basically, there’s no threat or risk of a failure in the present but our mind reconstructs an illusion based on the past experiences that prevent us from doing what is good for us. So are fears of starting a new relationship real? Are they so powerful that they prevent you from love? Are you afraid to be misunderstood, hurt, or get disappointed? Do you have a habit of self-sabotage? Have you ever analyzed why you have these fears in the first place? Can a reasonable amount of fear be healthy?  

Enough of the introduction, now let's pull back the sheets...

Love languages: how to read them and do they need to match?

Love languages: can you name all five of them? What if your partner's love languages don't match yours? Can you adjust if you really care about your loved one? What to do if your partner keeps misinterpreting your needs and, for example, brings you chocolate when what you really need is a hug? Should you learn all five languages to prevent any misunderstandings? Do your love languages change through time? 

We have an amazing group of people in our big ole bed and even a professional audience next to it. Now let's pull back the sheets...

Is it a deal-breaker if someone is lying on a dating profile?

If you have ever created a dating account, you know that most dating sites require a short story/bio to complete your profile. But must the story also be 100% true to be effective? Can lies assist you to attract the right one? Or will it be a big turn-off when the truth is revealed? Is any lie a deal-breaker? Or can a small exaggeration get a pass? What's the fine line between deception and embellishment? A Kaspersky survey of online daters from around the world found that over half of online daters lie. Why are so many people making up stories about themselves? Are dishonest daters, first of all, lying to themselves?

This hot topic raised even more questions, but we are not looking for the right answers, we just talking it over in our big ole bed, which keeps growing. Now let's pull back the sheets...
