In this week’s Halloween special, we dive into the dark, hilarious underbelly of modern dating — from “shrekking” (aka girls dating ugly guys) to the ghosts and ghouls of our past who just won’t stop haunting our social media. We’re breaking down why women sometimes fall for the ogre next door, what ghosting really says about someone, and how exes always seem to resurrect themselves around spooky season. Grab your broomsticks and your boundaries — it’s about to get messy in the dating graveyard.
