Beducated Founder Mariah Freya Featured in Cosmopolitan Article on Intentional Dating
(Los Angeles, CA / August 6 2024) – Mariah Freya, founder of top pleasure-based sex-ed site Beducated.com, is featured in a new Cosmopolitan article, “Here’s What Intentional Dating Can Do for Your Love Life”.
In the informative piece by Sophie Saint Thomas, Freya shares her expertise on the concept of intentional dating, offering valuable advice on how to navigate the complexities of modern relationships with purpose and clarity.
“Intentional dating is a remedy for the superficiality of modern dating,” explains Freya to Saint Thomas. “Instead of endless swiping, ghosting, and small talk, it emphasizes quality over quantity and depth over surface” and focuses on “meaningful connections with a clear vision of what you want.” Why? Because “knowing your goals and communicating them up front can significantly enhance your dating experience.”
Freya also clarifies the term ‘hardballing’, which Freya says “means making your romantic intentions clear from the start, sometimes even before the first date… this might include discussing how many dates before intimacy, long-term intentions, or partner preferences. While it might seem extreme, it can be a healthy way to communicate your goals… you don’t need to mention marriage and babies on the first date but can express that you’re looking for something serious.”
She also advises, “Intentional dating is about the journey as much as the destination. Embrace the process as an opportunity for personal growth and self-discovery. Each step builds toward not just finding love but also enriching your relationship with yourself… share your goals, visions and dreams. This approach naturally filters out those only interested in casual hookups.”
While maintaining personal privacy is important, Freya says she firmly believes in being “honest about your intentions, whether you’re looking for a serious relationship, casual dating, or something else”. Otherwise, there’s simply no point.
