Are dating apps making us better at dating — or just better at swiping past the right person?
In this episode of Love Sex LA: Unfiltered, we’re sitting down with celebrity matchmaker, Alessandra Conti, to talk about what matchmakers know that dating apps don’t. We get into modern dating, compatibility, chemistry, red flags, green flags, dating mistakes, dating outside your type, and what actually matters when you’re trying to build a real relationship.
We talk about the biggest ways people sabotage their dating lives, from unrealistic expectations and first-date mistakes to misreading the spark, ignoring healthy connections, and over-prioritizing the wrong things on dating apps.
We also break down the difference between chemistry and compatibility, whether attraction can grow, how long you should give a connection before deciding there’s “no spark,” and why dating outside your type might be the thing that finally changes your dating life.
Plus, we play Date or Ghost where we decide whether dating scenarios are worth pursuing or worth ghosting, followed by a Rapid Fire round of quick dating questions and honest matchmaker advice.
This episode is for anyone who is tired of dating apps, stuck in the same dating patterns, questioning their type, confused by chemistry, or ready to date more intentionally.
