First Date Red Flags, First Date Green Flags

Wise Readers, have you ever missed some red flags—waving banners that might have been there on the first date?
We’ve all been there! And if you (or someone you love) is tired of it, check out this new article in Newsweek, today: https://www.newsweek.com/biggest-red-flag-first-date…

Equally important: Do you know the number 1 *green* flag to look for? Scope that out in a separate Newsweek article: https://www.newsweek.com/biggest-green-flag-first-date-according-relationship-experts-1993512
Did you guess the dealbreakers and deal-makers I named? What stands out for you? Are there other red or green flags you would add?
I’d love to hear what you think! Your life is your own experiment. Going forward, what will you try that’s different?
Cheers,
Duana

New Podcast episode at Live Your Life: How not to be single

“How do you find success in modern dating? Science. At least, that’s what Dr Duana Welch has devoted her life to, helping individuals find (and keep love) using science as a guide. Advice from friends and family can be helpful, but what about having a strategy to understand what works for most people, most of the time? There are, of course, exceptions, but do you want to be an exception? Dr. Duana says “There is a word for people who don’t devote strategy and concentrated effort to finding a partner, and that word is ‘single’”. Check out episode 43 of The Live your Life Podcast to learn more from Dr. Duana.
“Dr. Duana Welch (pronounced DWAY-nah) is the dating coach and author known for using science to help men and women find and keep the love of their lives. A former professor in Florida, California, and Texas across 20 years, she is an expert for Paired, the science-based couples app, and she has contributed to NPR, PBS, Psychology Today, and numerous other outlets and podcasts. Her book Love Factually: 10 Proven Steps from I Wish to I Do, is out globally in five languages; its revised and updated edition released in 2022. She coaches clients worldwide, via Zoom and other technologies.”

GET SCIENCE AND LOVE ON THIS NEW EPISODE WITH DEEPER DATING

When it comes to finding your life partner, have you felt like things aren’t going the way you’d hoped…but you don’t know what might help instead?
If so, then this is THE podcast for you. Oprah featured it. It and its host Ken Page are major! I have wanted to be on Ken Page’s Deeper Dating for *years*—it’s soooo good. Ken is all about love, respect, and kindness.
And I’m delighted to be on episode #175, where we discuss:
• What does it mean to date the hard way?
How can you re-brand the term ‘high-status’?
• What’s the difference between that and hard-to-get?
• What to do between the first contact and the first date?
• Why and which boundaries are so helpful in dating?
• Are there benefits to waiting to have sex?
• What does science say about setting up a dating profile?
• How to ask the hard questions on a date? (scripts included!)
I’m so excited about this episode and this podcast, and I know you will be, too!
Listen to this all-science-based dating episode here:
And please lmk how you liked the show! What stands out for you? Your life is your own experiment. What will you try that’s different?
Cheers,
Duana
