Ever had a potential partner vanish with the "I'm too busy" excuse? You're not alone.

In this candid fishbowl session, we dive deep into a listener's experience with a Hinge match who, after just three dates in a month, pulled the classic "right person, wrong time" card. While he claimed his busy work schedule was the culprit, we unpack what's really happening when someone uses this excuse.

The truth? When someone genuinely wants you, they make time—no matter how packed their schedule. We share why this fundamental principle matters so much in dating and why accepting the "busy" excuse sets a dangerous precedent for how you'll be treated throughout a relationship.

We also tackle the controversial but crucial topic of intimacy timing. Drawing from years of dating experience, we explain why waiting for exclusivity before becoming intimate can save you heartache and help identify partners who value you beyond physical connection. This strategy isn't about outdated morality but about understanding relationship psychology and protecting your emotional wellbeing.

Whether you're actively dating or taking a break from the scene, this episode offers practical wisdom for recognizing genuine interest versus convenient excuses. Remember: you deserve someone who makes you a priority, not an afterthought.
