Dating Hack: 5 Things You'll Learn From A Video Chat That You Need to Know
If you already purchased Master the Art of Love you know the genius of a Video Chat. If not, let me give you the scoop….
There are 5 things THAT YOU NEED TO KNOW that you will learn by setting up a video chat with a potential date.
1) If there’s chemistry.
You cannot tell for sure if there is good chemistry over text or a phone call. Anyone who thinks you are too demanding because you ask to check for chemistry before going on a live date, is not your person!
2) What kind of environment your potential date is in.
Texting and talking is great but seeing a person and their surroundings takes it up a whole other notch. Is anyone yelling “honey” or “daddy” in the background, do things look put together, can they only talk on the go? These are things you want to know!
3) What they lied about on their profile.
Sorry, but the statistics are staggering. Even well-intentioned people lie on their dating profiles: weight, height, general appearance, age–you name it! And now they can use AI to completely fake their pics! Before wasting time, money and mascara on a live date, find out who they really are.
4) If they are comfortable enough with themselves to have a video chat.
Someone who is too ashamed of how they look or where they live–or is hiding something even more interesting--will weed themselves out at this stage. That’s a great benefit to you.
5) If they are attracted to you enough and available enough to have a video chat.
Someone who is not really available or attracted to you will not take the time to have a video chat with you, good, now you know! Someone who is just looking for a booty call will also fail to take the time to really vet you, the way you want to vet them. Dodge that bullet if you are looking for something serious!

This is just the beginning of what you need to know to date effectively and happily in the modern era.

Frequently Asked Questions about Using Video Chats in Dating
1. Isn’t it a little awkward to ask for a video chat before meeting?
Maybe at first—but it’s worth it. Anyone who’s serious, respectful, and emotionally available will say yes. If they don’t? You just saved yourself time and trouble.
2. Can’t I just get a sense of someone through texting or phone calls?
Nope. You might get good banter, but chemistry, body language, tone, and vibe are all easier to read over video. It’s the best pre-date screening tool you’ve got.
3. What if someone refuses a video chat?
That’s your answer. If they’re not willing to hop on a quick call, they’re likely hiding something—or not truly available. You want a partner who values clarity and connection, not secrecy or delay.
4. What should I look for during the video chat?
Notice their environment, their energy, and how they treat you. Are they fully present? Can they hold a conversation? Are they honest about how they show up? These things matter more than a polished selfie.
5. How long should the video chat be?
Keep it short and casual—10 to 15 minutes is enough. The goal isn’t a virtual date, it’s just to see if there's a spark and a sense of safety before planning something in person.
