Speaker Series: Relationships and Private Stuff, hosted by Liz Dore

As part of our Sextember event series, Liz Dore joined us on campus to discuss dating, sex and love.

Don't be afraid to ask someone out! Liz Dore suggests a casual coffee or activity during the day to avoid awkwardness and keep things light. Use it as an opportunity to get to know the other person. #datingadvice #askthemout #casualdates

When it comes to texting, wait for a response before sending multiple messages. It can be overwhelming and even off-putting. Liz Dore #textingtips #dating #respect

Physical touch is important, but always respect boundaries. If someone pulls away, it's a sign they might not be comfortable. Pay attention to cues and communicate openly. #consent #respectfulrelationships Liz Dore

Liz is talking about consent now. She emphasises that it's essential in all relationships, even long-term ones. Always ask,always listen, and always respect your partner's boundaries. #consent #healthyrelationships Liz Dore

Breaking up is hard, but having a strong support system can make the process easier. Liz Dore encourages building friendships and seeking support from loved ones. Build it before you need it (and keep maintaining it, even when you fall in love). #heartbreak #support
