Hey! I'd love to hear your thoughts, send me a voice note.

Pretending physical attraction doesn't matter? That's just another form of romantic delusion.

In this episode of The Realistic Romantic, Drew breaks down the difference between the features you were born with and the appearance you choose to present, why intentionality can make you more attractive, and how to care about appearance without becoming shallow.

Plus, we're talking about pheromone-maxxing, the internet trend where some men are skipping showers because they think their natural scent will make them more attractive.
