When I joined the wonderful Bibi Lynch on her podc When I joined the wonderful Bibi Lynch on her podcast last year, she shared stories of her dates: arriving with a bag that read “Back Off!”, wearing her dad’s fisherman jumper, and making everyone laugh.

Now, humour is a beautiful thing, playful, magnetic, connecting. But I asked her: “Are you using humour to invite people in… or to keep them at arm’s length?”

That question lingered. Bibi bravely explored her patterns, and here’s the joyful twist: after years without a relationship, she now has her first boyfriend since 1997! 💕

Humour can be the sweetest bridge into intimacy when it helps us feel seen and safe. But sometimes, without realising it, we can also use it as a shield.

✨ A gentle reflection: next time you share a joke, is it opening the door to connection… or quietly closing it?

I’d love to hear, how do you use humour in love and dating? 💌
