Wife Or Bust, Ep 15 - What Dating Taught Us in 2025 (And What Changes in 2026)

Episode 15 of Wife or Bust is our 2025 wrap-up. Not the highlight reel. The real one.

We talk about: Why ambiguity is more exhausting than rejection How “clarity is kindness” plays out in real life The surprising Hinge stats most men never see Why being specific attracts better matches What we’re changing going into 2026 (apps + real life) If you’ve felt stuck, tired, or unsure whether you’re doing dating “wrong,” this episode is for you. I’m Chris Bates, author of The Dating Edge, and this series exists to show you what dating with clarity, integrity, and intention actually looks like in real time.
