Survivors, the apps are quiet (briefly).

We’re closing out the year with boundaries, hydration reminders, and elite-level side-eye for recycled “hey stranger” texts.

From Trixie’s therapist calm to Petra’s festive chaos, Sir Rexington’s etiquette, Megalosaurus logic, and a Consentasaurus cocoa-approved reminder, this holiday send-off is validation wrapped in tinsel.

Rest. Reset. Decline invitations.

You’re not asking for too much.

You’re just asking the wrong people.

Happy holidays, survivors

What does consent actually look like in modern dating and why does it matter more than chemistry?

In this episode of Dating App Apocalypse: Clever Girl’s Survival Guide, Clever Girl is joined by the Consentasaurus, Keeper of the Boundaries and sworn enemy of “but we already started.” Together, they unpack how consent shows up in real-life dating moments, from unsolicited photos and mixed signals to pressure disguised as romance and silence mistaken for permission.

This episode explores why attraction isn’t consent, politeness isn’t consent, and confusion definitely isn’t chemistry. You’ll learn how to recognize red flags, understand freeze responses, set boundaries without over-explaining, and spot the difference between healthy interest and entitlement. With feminist field-guide wisdom, humor, faux ads, and Petra the Passive-Aggressive Pterodactyl’s blunt truth bombs, this episode makes consent clear, practical, and yes, attractive.

Featuring the interactive Wheel of Vibes, real-world consent scenarios, communication check-ins, and tools for navigating dating apps, relationships, and digital boundaries with confidence and self-respect.

Consent isn’t paperwork.

It’s presence.

It’s clarity.

And it’s hot.

Perfect for anyone dating online, rebuilding boundaries, healing from people-pleasing, or learning how to trust their gut without apologizing for it.

In this episode of Dating App Apocalypse: Clever Girl’s Survival Guide, we break down the three core attachment styles in dating: Secure, Anxious, and Avoidant. Discover how your attachment style shapes your relationships, texting habits, emotional triggers, and modern dating patterns. Are you a Secure partner who builds connection easily, an Anxious dater who spirals over “seen” messages, or an Avoidant type who shuts down when things get real?

Clever Girl explains the psychology behind attachment theory, how childhood patterns show up in swipe culture, and why understanding attachment styles can help you choose healthier partners. You’ll learn practical tools for emotional regulation, creating secure connection, and evolving your attachment style so it stops running your love life like a rogue dinosaur.

This episode blends relationship advice, humor, and survival tips to help you date with confidence, communicate clearly, and avoid repeating patterns that keep you stuck. Adaptation > extinction.

Upgrade your emotional toolkit and stop letting prehistoric patterns pick your partners.

Instant chemistry? Cute. But can your spark survive the group chat? Clever Girl is back in the dating laboratory with Trixie the Therapist Triceratops to test why some connections combust while others actually… function. Expect bubbling emotions, questionable specimens from the swiping wilds, and a cameo from Petra the Passive-Aggressive Pterodactyl swooping in to roast everybody’s love life.

Survival Lesson: Chemistry lights the match. Compatibility keeps the jungle from burning down.
