EPISODE 67: How to Quit Dating Someone You’re Just Not Into

He didn’t make the bed so I ended it (but there’s more to this story….).


What started as a promising connection took a turn on date seven, when the effort (or lack of it) just didn’t match up. It took around 3 seconds for me to be fully checked out and this time I ended things immediately. That’s growth for ya…


In this episode of The Date with Confidence Podcast, I’m sharing how to stop dating someone when you know it’s just not it, even if they’re “nice.” I talk about the guilt that can creep in when someone seems great on paper, the fear of letting a good one go, and why it’s actually kinder to end it sooner rather than later.


Plus, I’m introducing a fresh new format to the podcast (exciting!) — with updates from my own dating life, your dilemmas, and juicy mindset shifts to help you date with confidence.


The vibe of this episode:


1. Why it's okay to walk away from someone even if nothing’s “wrong”


2. The shame we feel when we ignore our gut and stay too long


3. How to end things kindly without overexplaining or apologising


4. Why texting is totally acceptable in early dating breakups


5. The exact message I sent when I realised he wasn’t the one


6. The realisations that came flooding within minutes of me getting the ick


7. What I’m doing next as I start dating again


If you’ve ever wondered whether you're being “too picky” or you’ve struggled to end things without overexplaining, this is the pep talk you need.
