Your Soulmate Isn’t On Hinge

In this episode, Dr. K explains why finding a "spark" feels harder than ever in a world dominated by dating apps. He explores the biological difference between logical compatibility and true romantic passion, showing how our modern approach to dating might actually be short-circuiting our ability to fall in love.

What to expect in this episode:

• Compatibility vs. Passion: Why treating dating like a job interview uses the wrong part of your brain and prevents you from feeling chemistry.

• The "Spark" Calculus: A look at the Rate of Intimacy Model, which explains why passion comes from how fast you learn about someone, not just what you know.

• The Dating App Trap: How having too much information upfront prevents the dopamine hit required to feel a deep romantic connection.

• Dopamine Burnout: How modern habits like social media and video games can physically exhaust your brain's ability to fall in love.

• Leveling Up Together: An introduction to the Self-Expansion Model, where two individuals transition from a "spark" into building a shared life as a single unit.
