Why'd he bail after we slept together ? - MONDAY MAILBAG - The JTrain Podcast w Jared Freid

The JTrain Podcast

It's Monday AKA Mailbag Monday 🙌 📩Fresh off a trip to Boca for the Jewish New Year, and Jared tells us about his love for the fall season, the nostalgia of classic Halloween movies, and the joy that comes with the cooler weather. He shares why October might just be the best month of the year—no stressful holidays, still nice enough to go outside, and the perfect time to embrace everything Halloween-related🎃Then Jared shifts over to dating topics! He explores the complexities of early dating expectations. A listener writes in about her situation with a guy she’s been seeing for a few months, navigating mixed signals and inconsistencies in communication. In the listener mailbag, Jared addresses a dating dilemma about salary differences and who should pay on the first date.

Jared dives deep into the dynamics of texting in the early stages of dating 📲 He questions whether the listener is being herself or playing it safe by waiting for the guy to make all the moves. He reflects on how some people, including himself, have found themselves taking a passive approach to dating, keeping score of actions like texts and dates without showing their true selves. Jared emphasizes the importance of being authentic and upfront early on, especially when it comes to establishing expectations around consistency in a relationship.

As the episode progresses, Jared highlights the difference between expecting consistency and commitment, and how sometimes, vague requests for "consistency" can push someone away. He also discusses the listener’s experience of transitioning from casual dates to physical intimacy, and how it led to a sudden shift in behavior from her dating partner. Jared offers practical advice on how to be direct, express vulnerability, and navigate uncomfortable conversations to avoid falling into the trap of "safe dating."

We move on to another listener mailbag, Jared addresses a dating dilemma about salary differences💰This has caused tension in their relationship. Jared says, just split it so you don’t feel this way!
