 The Right Amount of Cyberstalking
Experts say this is how to decide on the right amount of pre-first-date research:
  • Focus on sensible “cyberstaling” - Start with verifying what you already know about them. Confirm they work where they say they do by checking out their LinkedIn and get a feel for their personality by scrolling through their Instagram.
  • When it becomes overkill - Things like running a paid background check or combing their social media profiles to do a deep dive into their past and looking at their ex’s tagged photos are definitely too much.
  • Check for red flags - Not having an online footprint is a major one. Even if they don’t like social media, most people have a LinkedIn profile, if they don’t and you feel like something is off, you may want to reconsider meeting up in person.
  • Don’t overprepare - This is a date, not a job interview, so don’t spoil the genuine way you get to know someone by researching more than you need to.

Feeling Financially Comfortable
We are not talking annual salary, this is total.
  • Americans don’t need a million dollars to be financially comfortable, just $839-thousand will do it, according to new research from Charles Schwab.
  • Their survey reveals that figure is much lower than the $2.3-million people consider wealthy.
  • When asked to define what “wealthy” means to them, respondents’ top three are happiness (45%), “amount of money I have” (44%) and physical health (37%).

Corey's Brain
When I am trying to sleep, it is like three movie screens are playing. One is playing music from the 'Mary Poppins' soundtrack, another is questioning whatever happened to my college boyfriend...this third is me counting back from a 100, version of counting sheep. Does anyone else have a multiplex churning when they just want to rest?

Second Date Update
  • Maya met Eric online. They are both into fitness and health, so take a yoga class for their first date. They even enjoyed smoothies afterwards. Why would he ghost?
