Slow burn dating asks a deceptively hard question: how much can you know after one meeting? Tony Tedesco and Jen Kirsch offer two ways to think about a connection that takes time, helping you decide when to stay curious.
Jen nearly ruled out an Uber driver after one uncomfortable ride. When chance put them together again, the experience changed. Her story raises a dating question: are you seeing a pattern, or judging someone by a single fumble?
Tony sees value in learning whether your goals fit before becoming deeply invested. He also admits he makes quick decisions himself. How do you give someone room to grow in your life while staying honest about what matters to you?
