About this episode

The episode explores the concept of deserving better in relationships and the disconnect between what people say they want and their actions.

This week on CockTales: Dirty Discussions, we’re unpacking a word we use all the time but rarely question… deserve. What does it actually mean to deserve something? Is it earned… aligned… or just something we say we want? From dating standards and “soft life” expectations to the reality of accepting less than we claim we deserve, we get real about confidence, self-worth, and the disconnect between what we say and how we move. Plus, one of us shares a wild dating story that quickly turned into a lesson in knowing when to walk away… immediately. If you’ve ever said “I deserve better” but stayed anyway… this episode is for you.
