Could your biggest obstacle to dating success be the advice you've been following?

In this episode of Do As We Say, Not As They Did, Dr. Liz Powell and Harris O'Malley endure the trenches of r/PurplePillDebate, a supposedly neutral subreddit where you somehow end up with advice like "Men, don't talk to women." Huh?

According to one self-proclaimed 10, "ugly" men shouldn't bother trying to talk to a woman in person because they simply have no chance. After all, if no one wants to swipe right online, what makes face-to-face any different?

And boy howdy, do Harris and Dr. Liz have some thoughts.

Tune in for:

Dating is not a business, so stop looking for your ROI

People can sense desperation, and it's not attractive

How misogyny hurts both men and women

You'll be more interesting if you're interested in things (genuinely interested)

Tom Holland's Umbrella performance is the hottest thing to ever exist

Looks are a small part of attraction

Most people just want to make a connection. But they want to make a connection with someone who has hobbies and enjoys things. If you've been striking out in the dating department, take some notes. You just might have been getting advice from the wrong place.
