    In this powerful guest episode, Tisia sits down with Nate Cottman for an honest, grounded conversation about love, purpose, healing, and what actually matters when choosing a partner.
    Nate brings a refreshing perspective on masculinity, integrity, and emotional depth, reminding us that a man’s purpose should come before partnership. Drawing from spirituality and the biblical story of Adam being given purpose before Eve, Nate explains why diligence, alignment, and character matter more than charm or chemistry.
    Together, Tisia and Nate explore:
    • What women should truly look for in a man beyond attraction
    • Why integrity and purpose are non-negotiables
    • Emotional transparency and being known for your heart
    • How family dynamics and father wounds shape how we love
    • The role of faith and staying aligned with God
    • Emotional regulation vs shrinking yourself in relationships
    • When effort is reciprocal… and when it’s not
    • Therapy, healing, and timing in relationships

    💌 Dear Tisia Voicemail SegmentThey also unpack a listener voicemail from a woman who feels like she’s losing herself trying to stay chosen in her relationship. The discussion breaks down:
    • Emotional regulation without silencing your needs
    • Whether effort after conflict is growth or a red flag
    • How to tell if a relationship needs boundaries — or an ending

    This episode is for anyone navigating love while trying to stay whole, aligned, and emotionally honest — without over-investing in relationships that cost you yourself.
    🎁 The episode closes with a heartfelt moment of appreciation and a surprise gift for Nate, celebrating friendship, empathy, and seeing the value in one another.

    In thiis episode of Dear Tisia, we’re unpacking what happens when love ends without closure, when generosity turns into resentment, and when being “too nice” costs you clarity.

    🎄 One woman is blindsided when her fiancé leaves the day after Christmas — no conversation, no explanation — after years of her supporting his dreams and building a shared life with her son.

    💔 Another caller is labeled a “gold digger” after she refuses sex post-breakup — exposing how unhealed grief and emotional immaturity can masquerade as “nice guys.”

    🧠 And we talk about the sweet spot — how women can lead with warmth and boundaries from the very beginning.

    ✨ In Btch You Smell Good*, we feature Bond No. 9 Nolita, a fresh floral-woody scent that smells like confidence, clarity, and moving on with grace.

    🚩 In the Red Flag Report, we unpack the revelation that Yandy Smith and Mendeecees Harris were never legally married — despite nearly a decade of playing husband and wife — and what that means for commitment, protection, and accountability.

    👇 Let’s talk about it.

    This episode of Dear Tisia sits at the intersection of compassion, discernment, and self-protection.

    💔 One woman wonders if a man grieving multiple family suicides can truly be ready for love — or if she’s being pulled into emotional labor too soon.

    🚨 Another caller admits she’s caught feelings for a client she met while working in a prison — and now chaos, overlap, and emotional unavailability are clouding her judgment.

    🤍 And a single mom, still healing from trauma, asks how to eventually date the right way — without letting fear or past mistakes dictate her future.

    ✨ In Btch You Smell Good*, we revisit Montblanc Signature, a soft, comforting scent that feels like calm confidence.

    🚩 In the Red Flag Report, we debate whether living together before marriage is a smart test run — or marriage rehearsal without commitment.

    This episode of Dear Tisia confronts uncomfortable truths about commitment, protection, visibility, and the modern dating culture that keeps people emotionally half-in.

    💔 One woman discovers her “boyfriend” is living a double life — claiming love while still asking for other women’s Instagram handles. Is that love… or entitlement?

    🚨 Another mother faces a terrifying reality when her child’s father wants to co-parent — despite his girlfriend having abused her son. How do you protect your child without being painted as bitter?

    🫥 A woman questions whether love can survive without public acknowledgment after her partner repeatedly refuses to introduce her — even at major life moments.

    ✨ In Btch You Smell Good*, we feature Hundred Silent Ways by Nishane — soft, sensual, and quietly powerful.

    🚩 And in the Red Flag Report, we unpack nanoships — tiny love stories that feel good in the moment but quietly rob you of real commitment.

    💔 And a 22-year-old woman opens up about staying with a man who cheated — with someone nothing like her — and how race, identity, and broken promises have shattered her confidence.

    ✨ In Btch You Smell Good*, we highlight Givenchy Irresistible Eau de Parfum, a soft, feminine scent that feels like confidence without force.

    🚩 In the Red Flag Report, we unpack the viral debate around chest-to-chest hugs with married men. Is it about respect… or control?

  • Love Without Feeling, Cheating Cycles, Unchosen Love & “No Title” Relationships

    Love Without Feeling, Cheating Cycles, Unchosen Love & “No Title” Relationships
    Dec 15 2025
    This episode of Dear Tisia is heavy, honest, and necessary. We’re talking about emotional detachment after hurt, cheating cycles that won’t heal, loving someone who never chooses you, and the growing trend of relationships with no titles — but all the intimacy.

    💔 One woman ended a three-year relationship after her partner admitted he wasn’t attracted to her — only for him to come back once she lost weight. Now he’s doing everything right… but her feelings are gone.

    💣 Another couple cheated on each other — but only one mistake is being weaponized. Can trust ever be rebuilt when accountability turns into punishment?

    😔 And a 23-year-old single mom opens up about loving a man who barely calls, never committed, and only shows up for sex — yet still feels impossible to let go of.

    ✨ In Btch You Smell Good*, we feature Montblanc Signature, a soft, feminine, comforting fragrance that smells like warmth and self-assurance.

    🚩 In the Red Flag Report, we discuss Teyana Taylor and Aaron Pierre — doing everything that looks like a relationship… without calling it one. Is avoiding labels emotional maturity — or avoidance?

    👇 Let’s talk in the comments. Which story hit you the hardest?
