Whether you’re single, coupled-up, or not even interested in a cuddle buddy at the moment, this episode’s question about dating is really about so much more. It’s time to explore the mind-opening world of personality temperaments with a letter from a listener who signs her name, “Successfully Single” ... and a chorus of bored children from your Teddy Ruxpin dreams.

Our guest for this episode is the brilliant Moira Weigel, author of Labor of Love: The Invention of Dating. She’s a writer, translator, and scholar currently at the Harvard Society of Fellows. In 2017, she received her PhD from Yale University. Her writing has appeared in many publications, including The New York Times, The Guardian, and The New Republic.
