172. When You're Looking For A Slow Burn, But They're Rushing It

In this episode of Dating Intentionally, I’m talking about the very real and very common experience of rushing a connection in dating. You’ll hear the signs to look out for, like constant texting, premature intimacy, or talking about the future way too soon. While some of this can feel exciting, I explain why it’s often a red flag, not just enthusiasm. I’ll walk you through how to recognize when things are moving too fast, how to set boundaries without killing the vibe, and why it’s so important to actually get to know someone before you start planning your life together. I wrap things up with some concrete ways to slow it down and find a pace that feels right for you.
