❤️ It's OK to be a little delulu sometimes... | The Dateable Dish

May 10, 2025

Hello Dateables, 

Happy Friday all! We think we've officially entered spring....and it's 🔥🔥🔥. And not just because we aired an episode about flirting this week –  but because it's literally a heat wave in the Bay Area where we'll both be this weekend for some book events. We're excited for a bit of a different type of event at the very high brow Las Positas Literary Arts Festival (which PS is actually free to the public!) We'll also be doing a book signing at Books Inc. in the Marina in San Francisco beforehand. Stop by and say hi – hope to see you there!  

Also a friend just texted this to us....ummmmm this is amazing. Thanks Book Inc. for making our day!

PS: if you aren't local or around for these events and still haven't gotten the book, you can get it here.


This Is What You Need To Hear Right Now: It's ok to be a little delulu sometimes...

We'll admit: we have a love-hate relationship with the word flirting. If you have this same response, it may be because flirting can feels cringy and contrived. But firting absolutely can build rapport, connection, and that magic that leads to another date.

When we heard our guest Benjamin Camras speak on the topic, it resonated:  it's all about finding a way to authentically flirt so you're showing interest in a way that doesn't feel forced. You don't feel like a shell of yourself acting in a certain way. But you're bringing out the playful and fun parts of your personality that draw the right person to you like a magnet.

This conversation is filled with so many nuggets. But we'll leave just one for you now: it's ok to be a little delulu sometimes.

Yup, you heard us right. Because so many times we're asking: Were they interested? Were they flirting or just being nice? I couldn't tell...

But sometimes you need to just assume they are! And go with it. Because that could open up a world of possiblities. Because of course someone would be flirting with you! And if they weren't, then it's totally their loss (see, the healthy level of delulu is kicking in...)

❤️ Share with a friend that also needs to hear this as well. 


What We're Up To This Week

🎧  New Episode Alert! How To Flirt (Without Being Cringy).  Seriously, this will change your POV on flirting. Make sure to subcribe today and stay tuned for this week's brunch talk...it's a good one with the difference of overthinking vs. being intentional and cautious.

If you're sick of endlessly swiping and want a real connection, this is for you. This is our best content yet—we’re not holding back any secrets and hope to see you there.

🎶 Julie got her Outside Lands Tickets (which is a big music festival in San Francisco) and cannot wait to see Glass Animals (heatwaves is one of her and her fiance's songs).

🧗🏻‍♂️ Yue finally climbed Potato Chip Rock! (Right outside of San Diego) As someone who has a fear of heights, it felt like a big accomplishment!
