Our first caller is spiraling: is she running away… or just not that into him? The second caller's boyfriend won't let his kids meet her and she's wondering what that really means. And our third caller is asking the ultimate question: if we're compatible, how much does the spark actually matter?

"That's like the new romantic phrase of 2026: 'I always talk to my therapist about you.'"
