The Real Faces Behind the Fake Profiles

How Seeking is Changing the Dating Game Online dating should be exciting. It should be about making real connections, not worrying whether the person on the other side of the screen is even real. Unfortunately, for decades, scammers have made that difficult. They hide behind stolen photos and fake profiles, turning what should be meaningful connections into heartbreak and financial loss. In 2023 alone, Americans lost more than $1.3 billion to romance scams. This isn’t a small problem. It’s one of the fastest-growing forms of cyber crime in the world. And most other dating platforms have looked the other way. ...

The Cool Girl Is Cancelled

Say Hello to the Confident Woman Once upon a time, she was the gold standard—the chill girl who didn’t ever get mad, or ask for too much, and certainly never ordered the expensive wine. She was low-maintenance, zero-drama, and practically allergic to having an opinion. But lately, the myth of the Cool Girl has been crumbling. She’s over—out—and yes, cancelled. Women everywhere are walking away from the performance of being cool. Enter the Confident Woman who knows exactly what she wants and isn’t afraid to say so. She sets the tone for the date and clearly defines what she needs ...

The Power Move: Why Being Selective is Your Greatest Strength

I’ve noticed a trend. Dating advice lately seems to echo a single, exhausting refrain: be open, be flexible, and most of all, be willing to compromise. Standards, we are told, are obstacles; desires, optional. And that success in love belongs to those who have learned how to round down their dreams without making too much noise about them. But these narratives feel outdated, almost laughably so. Selectiveness has emerged not as a flaw, but as a form of radical self-respect. It isn’t a barrier to connection—being selective is a heightened expression of emotional intelligence. In a world still busy rewarding ...

Success Is Hot – Why Stinginess Is a Red Flag

In dating, generosity isn’t extra – it’s everything I need to get something off my chest: Let’s stop pretending stinginess is just “being practical.” In dating, being frugal is not a personality quirk. It’s a warning sign. There’s a difference between having boundaries and withholding, between discernment and scarcity. And if you’ve ever been on a date where someone showed up empty-handed—no plan, no effort, no curiosity—you’ve felt the chill.  Stinginess isn’t just about money. It’s an entire worldview. It says: I don’t give unless I have to. I don’t lead unless I’m guaranteed a return. I don’t extend myself—because ...

You’re Not Too Much—You’re the Match Some Can’t Handle

Some women were never meant to fade or play small. They move through the world without flinching at ambition, never softening their voice to make others comfortable, and they resist shrinking to resemble someone else’s idea of “enough.” These women are often described as “intimidating,” not because they lack kindness or tact, but because they don’t shy away from their clarity. If that’s you, you already know the double-edged language of modern dating. You’re told to be successful, though not too successful. Beautiful—but not overly self-aware. Independent, though not so much that someone can’t feel needed. It’s a confusing script, ...
