After 15 years of being single, Jodes has finally decided to dip her toe back into the dating pool⌠and, honestly, the water is fucking weird.
In this episode of Just Jodes, Iâm talking about getting back into dating after a VERY long break â from the highs and lows of Hinge to endless chats that never actually turn into dates, rejection, and the terrifying prospect of meeting a complete stranger and hoping they like you.
I also share the story of my first date in 15 years â including the slightly unexpected outcome and why, despite it not leading to a second date, I actually consider it a huge success.
Because sometimes the biggest win isnât finding your person. Sometimes itâs simply breaking the seal and proving to yourself that you can do the thing youâve been scared to do.
Weâll chat about rejection, comparison, feeling âbehindâ in life, waiting until youâre ready, and why confidence often comes after you take the leap rather than before it.
So whether youâre single, newly dating, getting back out there after a long break, or just putting off something because youâre waiting to feel readyâŚ
This oneâs for you. đ
And if nothing else, youâll get to hear Jodes discover that apparently having great banter and planning a pub quiz date does not necessarily mean youâve won Hinge. đ
