You're Such A Catch

Q&A with GQ

Episode Summary

Erin sits down with Just GQ from The Travel Guydes to chat about how 2020 has impacted interracial dating. GQ shares experiences from dating outside his race, where his experience as a black man was invalidated. The two discuss conditional empathy regarding race, the importance of respecting each other's backgrounds, cultures, and generational history. GQ even points out that prejudice is the most unifying thing about America, sadly.

Episode Notes

The two discuss the importance of being upfront and honest and why someone might ghost versus spitting the truth if they're not interested. Erin also asks GQ some of the juicy questions women submitted, wanting his male perspective:

1. How can I talk to my significant other about our slow sex life?
2. You say you like a girl to be aggressive and text first, but we get ghosted when we do. Why?
3. How do I know if a guy is really into me or if he's just lonely because of the pandemic?
4. I've been hooking up with a guy. The sex is amazing. I enjoy his company, but I know he's not going to take things to the next level. Do I ride this wave until it flattens, or should I tell him I'd like to be more than friends with benefits?
5. How do I avoid always being friend-zoned? I hit it off with a guy, and we seem to be having a great time together, then he says he'd be down to "chill" again, but not romantically.
