The Truth About ‘Vibes’ Dating: Why Men Think Basic Questions Are ‘Too Much’ | Cocktales Podcast

Today’s episode dives into the truth about “vibes” dating — and why so many men swear that answering basic questions is “too much.” After we mix up this week’s cocktail, the refreshing pH Balance, we unpack Medina’s viral conversation about dating communication, the hilarious (and sometimes concerning) comments from men, and what dating looks like when you’re grown, intentional, and done wasting time on vibes alone.

We also get into:

✨ A listener’s peppermint-oil disaster that turned sensual into survival
✨ Kiki’s Texas trip, Friendsgiving chaos & her deconstructed sweet potato pie
✨ Medina’s elevator meet-cute while delivering pies in her “Amish dress era”
✨ Cat-mama advice from Black women who REALLY know cats
✨ Why communication isn’t nosiness — it’s compatibility
✨ How to ask deeper questions & skip the surface-level dating loops
✨ Exploring Atlanta, survival kits, bookstores, and new kinds of dates
✨ Why “vibes” alone will have you raising kids with somebody you don’t even like
