We don’t need a man to live our best lives…but it would be nice if someone else could drive.

🚗 From airport pickups to splitting the travel expenses (and yes, killing the occasional roach), we’re diving into all the sillyreasons we low-key want a husband. Because sometimes, it’s not about romance—it’s about convenience.

Join us as we confess our most ridiculous “husband perks” (tax benefits included), unpack the myth of total independence, and laugh about why being a passenger princess just sounds so much better.

💌 Plus, this week’s Single Serving: one hot take, one small joy, one petty complaint — all in under two minutes.

Call the One Sweet Hotline to share your silly reason OR your spooky dating stories at ‪(361) 857-9338‬ — that’s 361-85-SWEET. We might just feature it next episode!

“You’re too picky.”
“Have you prayed to St. Anne to find you a man?”
“You’re so great—how are you still single?”

…Excuse me?! 😳

In this episode, Marilis and Gabrielle dive into the wild, awkward, and downright out-of-pocket things people say to single women — and how to respond without losing your peace (or your sense of humor).

From “You’ll never find anyone” to “Are you sure you’re not called to religious life?”, we’re unpacking the unsolicited advice, the well-meaning comments that sting, and the subtle ways these statements reveal how our culture views women and vocation.

🎧 Expect laughter, a few “did-they-really-say-that?” moments, and honest talk about how to navigate these conversations with grace and a little sass.

Plus:
✨ Our One Sweet Slice segment — a single serving of one hot take, one small joy, and one petty complaint — all in under two minutes.

So buckle up, grab a sweet treat, and join us for a real talk episode that every single woman will relate to.
