S17E9: The Benefits of Situationships

Yup, you heard us right. We often talk about how situationships wreak havoc to your love life...but today we're back with a solo episode looking at how situationships may actually help you. We’re discussing what relational skills you can learn even in a situationship, how to use them to understand what you need in a partner (or what you'll never stand for again), and why even the worst situationship can help open your heart for something bigger and better.
