Here\\u2019s what happened. A few months ago, Raeann\\u2019s friend told her about this app. It\\u2019s called feeld, and it focuses on establishing connections based on your sexual desires in the \\u201cspirit of openness and experimentation.\\u201d Because she\\u2019s someone who approaches things with an open and curious mindset, she downloaded it and made a profile. Find out in this episode how she ended up having \\u201ca more positive experience\\u201d than other dating apps, got out of her comfort zone, and learned how to be up front with her expectations sooner in her dating life. P.S. This one might make you blush.

\\u201cI\\u2019ve been thinking about sober dating, as in not drinking on the first date. I think what is happening is that I\\u2019m getting drunk on the first date, which is fun. But then I\\u2019ve got the drunk goggles on, which is why I\\u2019m so obsessed with them at first.\\u201d - Raeann

What we talk about:

  • A pattern Raeann has noticed in her dating life\\xa0

  • What Kristina\\u2019s loving about rediscovering play through motherhood

  • How Rae\\u2019s views on sex have evolved over time

  • Raeann reads examples of different types of profiles on the app and her own profile

  • What has happened on dates with men she met on the app

  • What she has learned about her own sexual desires and needs before having sex through this experience

  • Ask away: Am I rude AF to my significant other?

\\u201cWhat I\'ve learned is that they might be on to something with having these conversations earlier on. It does tell you a lot about a person outside of even sexual things: how they can communicate, how open they are, how they are able to compromise. It\\u2019s just wild to have these conversations I\\u2019d never traditionally have on the first date.\\u201d - Raeann
