How to be successful in modern dating with Claire Grigson

Single Sounds

VALENTINE'S DAY LIVE SHOW TICKETS

15th February 7pm @ The Ministry in collaboration with LUVISS

Katie interviews dating coach Claire Grigson on finding success and happiness in modern dating. They discuss Claire's unique style of relationship coaching, common dating problems Claire sees with clients, and how people can set themselves up for dating success in 2024. They also tackle questions from Katie's audience on whether to pay for dating apps, how to choose partners, the dreaded friend zone, and the differences between app dating vs real-life dating.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

· Define what success in dating looks like for you specifically through self-reflection and journaling on your intentions, values and vision. This helps assess potential partners.

· Move conversations to in-person dates quickly when using dating apps, within 2 days ideally, to avoid unrealistic expectations from excessive messaging.

· Pay more for a dating coach, events and activities likely to expand your social network versus paying for premium dating app features, which tend to increase overwhelming options.

· People often subconsciously choose partners that recreate dynamics with unavailable or inconsistent parents to try and rewrite the story, seeking love that feels familiar.

· Accept and respect when someone says they just want to be friends after dating, for the sake of your emotional health, it likely won't change.

· In-person singles events allow more accurate vibes assessment and expand your social network, despite potential initial nerves.

BEST MOMENTS

"My definition of success in dating is to make interesting connections with people that align with me."

"Be kind, like, still have a brief interaction with this person...people notice that."

"When you can allow yourself to just push out your comfort zone a little bit and do it, you'll probably find that you're like, that was actually all right."

ABOUT THE HOST

Katie McNamara - London.

I started Single Sounds to create a new fun method of dating as I felt that there is now little variety with how to meet people. I absolutely love podcasts and believe in the strong sense of self you can get from them so I thought it was perfect for a dating medium.

As I like to say this podcast is for people who have too much personality for a dating app.
