10: Biological Clock, Sexual Variety, Settling Down, & Male Groupies

A follow-up to last week’s episode, we will be going over more common mistakes that we all make in the mating dance that is dating.  

If you’ve ever had a dating experience where you felt you coudn’t control yourself or the eventual outcome, that was your genes compelling you to behave in a certain way.  This is a double-edged sword.  On one hand, you can be optimizing your genes surviving but on the other hand, it may be detrimental to long-term happiness. 

We have evolved to enjoy the pursuit of love & sex through dating and relationships.  In this episode we discuss how we can optimize happiness in this area by beating our genes.
