About this episode

This episode dives into chaotic advice on dating, relationships, and recognizing red flags.

This week on DBAD… it’s chaos, it’s advice, it’s “what the hell is wrong with men?” energy. We’re kicking things off with Bear updates (because obviously he’s perfect and we’re obsessed), but then we spiral, in the best way, into everything from toxic relationships to internet drama to real-life “am I the dick?” dilemmas. We’re talking: -Love bombers and emotionally unhinged men (yes, we’re naming names… kinda) -Why women still feel the need to shrink themselves in dating -The reality of modern friendships, weddings, and spending money you don’t even have -The biggest red flags you’re probably ignoring (but shouldn’t) -And the one thing you absolutely do when a married man slides into your DMs It’s unfiltered, it’s honest, it’s slightly unhinged, and it might just save you from making a very expensive or very emotional mistake. If you’ve ever felt like you’re overthinking… you’re not. If you’ve ever gotten the ick… trust it. And if he’s acting weird? He probably is. Let’s get into it. 📧 To get in touch with the podcast, email: teamgretchen@avoiragency.com __ 💕 Watch episodes on Youtube and follow Gretchen on Instagram and Tiktok __ ✅ Please make sure to subscribe, follow, rate…
