Dating Advice That Actually Works w/Rachel Hoover Canto | The Lila Rose Podcast E134

How do I let men know I am interested without coming across as desperate? How do I become the man who is appealing to my dream girl and how should I pursue her? Where is the best place to meet good Catholics? Today I sit down with Rachel Hoover Canto to answer these questions and more from her new book, “Pretty Good Catholic: How to Find, Date and Marry Someone Who Shares Your Faith.” Rachel and I will discuss the best strategies based on her own courtship experience, common mistakes unique to the Christian dating scene, proven techniques to transmit interest to the opposite gender, healthy physical boundaries, red flags to look out for, whether you should have a 'type' and much more.
