  • How Long Should You Wait To Date?
    Apr 14 2024

    Navigating the choppy waters of post-breakup dating can feel like setting sail without a compass—exciting for some, but daunting for others.


    In this episode, Maica, Meg, Kate, and Monica shared their insights about the dating timelines.

    Dating in your 30s is an entirely different voyage compared to our younger days, filled with the wisdom of past relationships and a desire to maintain our inner peace.


    Listen in as we talk candidly and reminisce on the lessons learned with every dating experience—those that led to love, those that fizzled out, and even those that simply added another story to our collection.


    The Better Filipinas invite you to chart your own path in the dating world, ensuring your next adventure is as enriching as this shared discussion.

    or Is it okay to stay with one person forever?

    Is it okay to not have kids? or Is it okay to have kids now?

    How do you deal with mistakes?
