This episode exposes the digital mirage of modern romance, where texting chemistry often leads to real-life disappointment. Eric, Erica, and Ruby dive into why online flirts so often fizzle offline, breaking down the psychology behind the digital dopamine rush that keeps us hooked on the idea of connection—while ignoring the lack of substance. They unpack how false intimacy thrives behind screens, why some men peak in the DMs and disappear in person, and how to stop confusing emotional exposure with emotional availability. No sugarcoating, no excuses—just raw, unfiltered truth and the tools you need to start vetting for real connection.
