Speaker 3: thought I got here?
Speaker 1: Yeah? What have you learned? I want to know, Like,
Speaker 1: because I feel like you've had a lot of life
Speaker 1: changes recently.
Speaker 2: I feel like as a person you've evolved heaps in
Speaker 2: the past since we've started this podcast. I feel like
Speaker 2: it's been a real evolution for you, which has been
Speaker 2: cool to see.
Speaker 1: But what have you learned?
Speaker 3: Twenty eight Things that I've learned before twenty eighth? Number one,
Speaker 3: do you have a list? Don't believe anyone when they
Speaker 3: say shaving your pubic care will rid you of crabs.
Speaker 3: Always wipe front to back. Number two. Number three, always
Speaker 3: walking pairs at night? That's from scary movie. I was like,
Speaker 3: what have I learned? I've learned a lot, haven't I?
Speaker 3: In the last couple of months. Like I said on
Speaker 3: something I learned was that I've really started to really
Speaker 3: figure out is that like nobody thinks they're the bad guy,
Speaker 3: are in the wrong in a situation, and they were
Speaker 3: like argue their point till they're blue, and that a
Speaker 3: lot of people struggle to see it from another person's
Speaker 3: point of view. What else have I learned recently?
Speaker 1: Everyone's the main character in their own story, in their own.
Speaker 3: Story, Yeah, that's the true, the same thing, yeah, character,
Speaker 3: So they're telling it from their point of view but failing.
Speaker 3: And I'm guilty of it as much as the next person.
Speaker 3: But because I've noticed it, I've taken a lot more
Speaker 3: notice of it and trying to realize that other people
Speaker 3: have their side of the story. Yeah, I've changed my
Speaker 3: whole outlooks outlook on your life as well. Was in like,
Speaker 3: I've changed my priorities. It's not so much going out
Speaker 3: now just you know, it's saving money, like putting a
Speaker 3: lot of focus back into.
Speaker 2: Myself, your very goal orientated, like we both are, which
Speaker 2: I think is like really positive. And it's almost like
Speaker 2: we don't want to go out and drink because we
Speaker 2: don't have time.
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly.
Speaker 1: And it's so good. It's such a good feeling.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I really do enjoy waking up sober and
Speaker 3: not hungover on a Sunday, feeling fresh from the night before.
Speaker 3: That's really good.
Speaker 1: That's a big evolution for you, to be honest.
Speaker 3: Oh, I've drunk enough for a lifetime. When I was younger.
Speaker 1: I've seriously taken a couple of years off your life. Probably.
Speaker 3: Yeah, guys, don't think because I don't enjoy it now
Speaker 3: like I used to go hard. Like you've seen me,
Speaker 3: You've seen me do it. Yeah, I have fun, But yeah,
Speaker 3: just change. I guess people grow up, mature, different life situations,
Speaker 3: different places they are in their life.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we have something very exciting coming up at the
Speaker 2: end of this month as well.
Speaker 3: We do.
Speaker 2: We're going to be doing a live show at Splendor
Speaker 2: in the Grass. So if you're going there, make sure

Speaker 2: tent and we'll be doing a bit of a live show.
Speaker 3: That's exciting, really exciting. Are you nervous or are you do?
Speaker 2: You know what I think When we did our first
Speaker 2: live show in Melbourne, I was like very apprehensive. I
Speaker 2: was like, you know, I didn't know what to expect.
Speaker 2: I didn't know how we were gonna be. But I
Speaker 2: think we do the podcast twice a week, it's very
Speaker 2: second nature to us. I mean, we just roll in
Speaker 2: here and we just have a chat with each other,
Speaker 2: and I think Splendor is gonna be a lot of fun.
Speaker 2: We're excited to see some of the people playing there.
Speaker 2: We have some interviews hopefully that are getting lined up
Speaker 2: some of the artists that we'd love to interview on
Speaker 2: the podcast from Splendor. It's gonna be a fun time.
Speaker 2: I've never been to Splendor. Michael's actually coming up with
Speaker 2: us as well. I would like to him, should I
Speaker 2: take one of the girls, like you know it's gonna
Speaker 2: be me, and that Matt's decided to bring his younger
Speaker 2: sister Emma, Should I bring one of my girlfriends? And
Speaker 2: Michael's like, no, Splendor, It's been on my buck at
Speaker 2: least for my whole life.
Speaker 1: I thought it was done. I'm thirty four. I thought
Speaker 1: it had been and gone.
Speaker 2: And He's like, this is my opportunity to tick it
Speaker 2: off the list.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I've actually never thought of Splendor in that
Speaker 3: way as something that I want to obviously, like there's
Speaker 3: I've done Beyond the Valley multiple times, so I just
Speaker 3: never thought about going up to Splendor. But more I
Speaker 3: talked to people were more like they're like, yeah, that's
Speaker 3: an awesome, like awesome festival out there, And I was like, shit,
Speaker 3: I'm excited now.
Speaker 2: I do love Byron Bay as well, Like Byron Bay
Speaker 2: has just this very cool, chill type of vibe. Obviously,
Speaker 2: I've never been up there when Splendor's on. I'm assuming
Speaker 2: it's going to be packed.
Speaker 3: Last year and they said that it was full.
Speaker 1: On really really yeah.
Speaker 3: So that's exciting.
Speaker 1: So yeah, we obviously, well.
Speaker 3: Last time we went to Buyer and we were at schoolies.
Speaker 1: Well I don't know if we can.
Speaker 2: We went on like a trip like couple's trip, and

Speaker 3: So very excited for that, Anna, I was getting everything ready.
Speaker 3: How was your weekend?
Speaker 1: It? It was very good.
Speaker 2: We have officially moved into our new house, so we
Speaker 2: had to buy a new fridge because at the old
Speaker 2: apartment the fridge was in built, so I sold it
Speaker 2: before moving in, so we bought a new fridge, but
Speaker 2: that is the only thing we're buying because.
Speaker 1: We're obviously broke.
Speaker 2: Now since we have our own house, we now have
Speaker 2: a mortgage. But yeah, so excited to be in.
Speaker 3: And that sounds old. I'm talking about twenty eight You
Speaker 3: guys have a mortgage.
Speaker 2: Hey, you're going to be moving into your new play
Speaker 2: suit hopefully cross manifested.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it was.
Speaker 2: It was stressful, but the movies did an amazing job.
Speaker 2: And yeah, I'm just so excited to be in. I'm
Speaker 2: excited to explore the area. And we got cameras for
Speaker 2: the front door, so hopefully that makes me feel a
Speaker 2: little bit more safe.
Speaker 1: But yeah, excited to be there.
Speaker 3: On furniture, what I've always said to literally a lot
Speaker 3: of my excess when I've been with like two banks
Speaker 3: as well moving and I've said the same thing to
Speaker 3: both of them, why do you buy nice furniture before
Speaker 3: you've got your house that you've bought and living in.
Speaker 3: I know that. Kira week, when she was moving her
Speaker 3: fridge got dinted, the whole front of it down the railings.
Speaker 3: Jen's marble table had chips all taken out, of it,
Speaker 3: and I was like, I don't reckon investing in stuff
Speaker 3: until you've got your house that you're living in and
Speaker 3: you know you're going to spend twenty years there or
Speaker 3: however long twenty years well, I don't know how long? Yeah,
Speaker 3: like ten years, indefinite, who knows.
Speaker 1: See how we go? I know.
Speaker 2: Well I kind of had this conversation with Michael because
Speaker 2: obviously I wanted to buy all new furniture because you know,
Speaker 2: movie into a new house. And Michael was like, yabeuch
Speaker 2: you no but no. But Michael was like, babe, we're
Speaker 2: going to Europe in August. Like we need to be
Speaker 2: like a bit more savvy. And I'm not used to
Speaker 2: being super savvy.
Speaker 3: But you have a mortgage now.
Speaker 1: We have a mortgage now.
Speaker 2: So like all of my expenses, I'm just like watching everything.
Speaker 2: There's more Uber eats, like I am like on a budget.
Speaker 3: Uber eats that gets yeah.
Speaker 2: And like even just like how people were talking about
Speaker 2: the interest rates rising, now, I'm like, fuck, now you
Speaker 2: understand what Now I'm understanding completely what people were going.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, when they'd have those chats in front of
Speaker 3: me in the sauna and that I was just like
Speaker 3: I have no idea. I still don't, but I guess
Speaker 3: you understand it now.
Speaker 2: Well, you've been talking a lot about potentially purchasing a house.
Speaker 2: You're twenty eight now, it's something that's definitely been on
Speaker 2: your mind. But the repayments is what like really stresses
Speaker 2: you out right?
Speaker 3: Yeah, we had this chat before and I said, you know,
Speaker 3: like buying house is fine, Like I've saved the amount
Speaker 3: I could go buy.
Speaker 1: I've got your deposit. I've got my deposit.
Speaker 3: Ready to go. It's like but then fuck, like, yeah,
Speaker 3: putting away money now when like you're living with my
Speaker 3: I'm living with my mum. I'm grateful enough to live
Speaker 3: with my mom at the moment to putting away money
Speaker 3: is quite easy. But you know you're making repayments to
Speaker 3: a like a mortgage. I think that's more like how
Speaker 3: much is that? I don't want to ask, but like
Speaker 3: that's not quite a big expense because you've got like
Speaker 3: rent as well as well.
Speaker 2: The only reason we even bought a house was because
Speaker 2: our rent went up significantly. And then when we did
Speaker 2: like the calculations, essentially, we were like having a mortgage
Speaker 2: isn't that much more expensive? I mean, it is more expensive,
Speaker 2: don't get me wrong, but it wasn't a great enough
Speaker 2: amount where I was like, it doesn't make sense.
Speaker 1: It was like it made more sense.
Speaker 2: To have a mortgage, and then the mortgage repayments almost
Speaker 2: like became savings. Obviously, I know a lot of it's
Speaker 2: interest rates, especially for the first like couple of years,
Speaker 2: like a lot of it is interest rates. But as
Speaker 2: the mortgage starts going down, you just start paying it
Speaker 2: off more so.
Speaker 3: Also another thing about that I'm hesitant about as well
Speaker 3: about doing that is I've spoken to my psychologists about
Speaker 3: this year is do I want to can like get
Speaker 3: a house or do I want to use that money
Speaker 3: to go on like an awesome holiday. You and me
Speaker 3: have discussed this as well, like what do I want
Speaker 3: to do. I'm in this state of mind where I'm
Speaker 3: now twenty eight And she said a lot of guys
Speaker 3: at this age sort of like stop and go fuck
Speaker 3: like what I what I said before, Like what I
Speaker 3: used to enjoy I don't so much enjoying now, and
Speaker 3: like I'm at this sort of thing where I still
Speaker 3: want to be young, like and you know how important
Speaker 3: to me being spontaneous and like absolutely you know, like spueling.
Speaker 3: Like my side of my brain, it's like the spontaneousness
Speaker 3: and like the not knowing what's happening. But then at
Speaker 3: the same time, I want ritual.
Speaker 1: You need stability. You hate when things are up in the.
Speaker 3: Air, constant battle for anyone that's got Ahd's like you
Speaker 3: want the stability, but you want to be able to
Speaker 3: do stuff and be spontaneous and like it's like, well,
Speaker 3: what do I want to do? I want to buy
Speaker 3: a house? Or do I want to do this? What
Speaker 3: path do I want to go?
Speaker 1: So what's the taker ad do both?
Speaker 3: I just said a bunch of It's say, you know
Speaker 3: that thing.
Speaker 2: Answers you want soft talkers seriously, Like I think the
Speaker 2: happy medium for you as a friend is to potentially
Speaker 2: buy house. But then also like your life is imporing.
Speaker 2: We're fucking going to do a live show. It's splendor.
Speaker 2: Like if I don't know what's going to give you more.
Speaker 1: Adrenaline than that, that is quite adrenaline.
Speaker 2: Also going on tour with the podcast, like we're going
Speaker 2: to be Life's good.
Speaker 3: I mean I just did own my mind. I sort
Speaker 3: of get into this thing where I'm like, well, shit,
Speaker 3: what do I do you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: I get you. I get you.
Speaker 2: It's a it's an inner battle that we're all facing.
Speaker 2: But I mean, I think everyone's also running their own race,
Speaker 2: and like exactly, so I.
Speaker 3: Say that that's my motto. That's something I've learned twenty
Speaker 3: eight things before twenty eight. Everyone's running their own race.
Speaker 2: Now it's just going to keep adding them to the
Speaker 2: to the non existed list that he never made.
Speaker 3: Made up literally as I was sitting here.
Speaker 2: So you celebrated your birthday on the weekend? How was that?
Speaker 3: It was good? So I saw my mates Friday. God,

Speaker 3: was you believe it or not, had no body in it.
Speaker 3: It was just me leaning on a broom. There you go,
Speaker 3: you set that I have my face.
Speaker 1: The stress of photo shoes. You just we forget.
Speaker 3: We do, yeah, we do. Even when we did that
Speaker 3: nude one for the two million listens, somebody my mum
Speaker 3: showed some woman of her friends and she said, oh,
Speaker 3: has Matt stopped working out?
Speaker 1: Are you kidding?
Speaker 3: People? People?
Speaker 2: I don't know why everyone comes for you for your
Speaker 2: body like you look good. I don't know what the
Speaker 2: thing is even your friends they like call you fat
Speaker 2: and stuff. I think it's ridiculous.
Speaker 1: It actually pisses me off because I see how it
Speaker 1: affects you. It actually like it really gets to you.
Speaker 1: And then you're like, I need to go to the
Speaker 1: gym every night, and it makes me feel sad because
Speaker 1: you look great.
Speaker 3: Thank you, and I appreciate that. I think that it's
Speaker 3: just because what I once was.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but what what you once were wasn't healthy. That's
Speaker 2: the facts of it. You were modeling, you probably.
Speaker 3: Were very underweight, we'd very underweight. So the other day
Speaker 3: I'm now one hundred and ten hundred and twelve kilos whatever,
Speaker 3: you're going to take your opinion. My mat say that
Speaker 3: I look a bit like thick in that, but I
Speaker 3: would say I'm not that thick. But when I was modeling,
Speaker 3: I was eighty two, which.
Speaker 1: Is so underweight for you.
Speaker 2: I mean, you're six foot five probably six six.
Speaker 3: Two meters one hundred and ninety eight centimeters exactly.
Speaker 1: I really don't think you being eighty two iculos it
Speaker 1: would be healthy. So I don't think you should take
Speaker 1: it personally.
Speaker 3: I know, I know everyone just says that, like I
Speaker 3: once was what I want, and I'm like, yeah, but
Speaker 3: like today I'm twenty eight years old, Like I'm not
Speaker 3: twenty one year older, and you don't.
Speaker 2: Want to be if you could go back to being
Speaker 2: edy Tequilos, I would hope that you would say you
Speaker 2: wouldn't want to go back to exactly like you're happy with.
Speaker 1: How you are. Don't let anyone Matt's mum's friendship's fuck off.
Speaker 3: Yeh, she's out, She's Twitter in the beatning she's done.
Speaker 2: I'm going to start putting all these people around you
Speaker 2: who are saying this to you in a bit because
Speaker 2: it's actually pissing me off because I hate how it
Speaker 2: like affects your confidence and it shouldn't.
Speaker 1: I mean, you're pretty confident as it is.
Speaker 2: You don't need more confidence, but it does affect you
Speaker 2: because you do take pride.
Speaker 1: In your appearance.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I And like, I remember my mate when I
Speaker 3: was modeling, he was older than me. I used to
Speaker 3: work with him on the tools and he was like, dude,
Speaker 3: when you get older, women don't want you looking like
Speaker 3: you do, like they're not attracted to a skinny little boy.
Speaker 3: And I was like, nah, this is the industry. The
Speaker 3: girls love it. People love it, but like, since I've
Speaker 3: got an older I know what his means now, Like
Speaker 3: they want a bit more meat on you, they want
Speaker 3: a bit more like Yeah, no one wants a skinny
Speaker 3: little you know what I mean, ripped up abs.
Speaker 1: I definitely don't want ripped up as that's for damn sure.
Speaker 3: I know. It just shows that a guy has takes
Speaker 3: more time in he's training than he does with you.
Speaker 1: Exactly.
Speaker 3: My recommendation this week is speaking of bodies and all
Speaker 3: that sort of stuff is and training, I've started to
Speaker 3: do sit ups and push ups. I used to do
Speaker 3: this just to you know, keep it going while I'm
Speaker 3: watching TV at night. Yeah, yeah, so I start, you know,
Speaker 3: I just I got an exercise ball and I just
Speaker 3: do push ups and I sit up.
Speaker 2: It seems to feel bad because you're just talking about
Speaker 2: how people are making you feel insecure.
Speaker 1: Now your recommendation is doing sit up.
Speaker 3: So I was watching TV spiral down, but it's just
Speaker 3: killing two birds with one stone. I used to do it,
Speaker 3: and you know, it keeps me young, keeps me fit.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and you do like to say fit, So I
Speaker 2: know it's not related, but it just it's just now
Speaker 2: I feel bad for my recommendation, which I'm about to
Speaker 2: give because mine is also exercise related. In my new unit,
Speaker 2: I have to go one flight of stairs to get
Speaker 2: to my front door, so I've been taking the stairs.
Speaker 1: A lot more.
Speaker 3: Do you have an elevator?
Speaker 2: No, No, we have no elevator, so we have a
Speaker 2: flat of stairs, so you have no choice.
Speaker 1: So I have no choice but to take the stairs.
Speaker 2: But my recommendation is instead of taking like escalators, kind
Speaker 2: of sub them out for stairs, because it's just such
Speaker 2: an easy way to get like your steps up for
Speaker 2: the day.
Speaker 3: Yeah. I used to during lockdown because we had nothing
Speaker 3: to do. I used in the apartment I was living in.
Speaker 3: I used to run the stairs.
Speaker 2: Really fuck that's savage. Was fu wow wit Do you
Speaker 2: know that I actually once did this thing. It was
Speaker 2: like for charity, and I had to walk all the
Speaker 2: stairs of the Eureka Tower, which is like the tallest
Speaker 2: building in Melbourne.
Speaker 1: It was fucking savage. I was exhausted.
Speaker 2: It was a lot, but it was like a race,
Speaker 2: so I had to go fast and I was like
Speaker 2: so exhausted, I was like dead by the end of
Speaker 2: it wasn't like a race race, but it was like
Speaker 2: everyone had to do it quickly.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, when was the last time you did the
Speaker 3: thousand steps?
Speaker 1: It's been a hot minut.
Speaker 2: But do you know what, since it's like very wintery
Speaker 2: at the moment, I've seen that there's a lot of
Speaker 2: snow falling around that area, and I really want to
Speaker 2: go up to the Dandenongs.
Speaker 1: I love it up there.
Speaker 3: Talking about timing, remember when we went to the Dandekongs
Speaker 3: for my birthday.
Speaker 1: Yes years ago to Miss Marples. Yeah, with both about exit.
Speaker 3: The pie and the skyplace, and you couldn't see the fog.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that was amazing. I really like that's on
Speaker 2: my to do list. Like I don't know if I
Speaker 2: want to have like a chill weekend next weekend just
Speaker 2: because we've just moved and I just want to relax.
Speaker 2: But over the next coming weeks, I really want to
Speaker 2: go up to a Linda, which is the suburb in
Speaker 2: three years ago.
Speaker 3: Yeah, literally to the day my birthday.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's there's nothing better than just like really rugging
Speaker 2: up and like going into the mountains.
Speaker 3: It's beautiful, So yeah, I do enjoy those days up there.
Speaker 1: Also a recommendation.
Speaker 3: I went there last year as well for my birthday.
Speaker 3: Did we drove from the wineries down that way?
Speaker 1: Beautiful? Do you know that area as well?
Speaker 2: There's like a I think it's in a Linda and
Speaker 2: they have like a little toasting marshmallow area on the fire.
Speaker 2: It's really nice. Yeah, I yes, so do I. It's
Speaker 2: just got a really good feel about it. Okay, we'll

Speaker 3: All right, my turn to get back on the door
Speaker 3: like some sentimental thank you. Okay, so this next hotline
Speaker 3: is anonymous.
Speaker 5: Okay, hey guys, here's a quick story for you. I
Speaker 5: met this guy towards the end of last year. Early
Speaker 5: this year, we were dating.
Speaker 6: We met on hinge.
Speaker 5: We had a really awesome first date. We met up
Speaker 5: quite quick actually after messaging, but it was like big
Speaker 5: summer romance energy.
Speaker 6: We went to a gig and then we went.
Speaker 5: To like four other places and we had such a
Speaker 5: fun night of like dancing and kissing and like just
Speaker 5: really great time, like good big chemistry energy and yeah.
Speaker 6: It was like such a great night.
Speaker 5: Like went home and I like voice noted my best
Speaker 5: friend just being like dude, that was insane. And immediately
Speaker 5: he was following up with when can I see you again?
Speaker 5: Like I really want to hang out, Let's do all
Speaker 5: these things, and I was like, okay, amazing fun. And
Speaker 5: so from that point we kind of started hanging out
Speaker 5: more and like going.
Speaker 6: On picnics and coming here.
Speaker 5: I was cooking for him and we went to a
Speaker 5: gallery like doing all of the things and amazing sex,
Speaker 5: like the best sex I've ever.
Speaker 6: Had in my life.
Speaker 5: He was a giver and just so so gentle, so hot,
Speaker 5: so kind, all of the things in the bedroom. Anyway,
Speaker 5: so we're having this great kind of time, and there
Speaker 5: was always this like thing that I was noticing around
Speaker 5: whenever I was trying to bring up the past, it
Speaker 5: would get like super vague and it was hard to
Speaker 5: kind of really pull.
Speaker 6: Things out of him. So if you were talking.
Speaker 5: About it X, it kind of wrapped up really quickly,
Speaker 5: and there was like so I could feel there was
Speaker 5: something there, but I was no rush to find out
Speaker 5: those things to.
Speaker 6: Us, like this is very new. I don't need to know.
Speaker 5: There was one stage to our dating time where I
Speaker 5: was like felt like I had been ghosted, which is
Speaker 5: just not on. So I had sent him a message
Speaker 5: saying like we've spent so much time in intimacy.
Speaker 6: Together, like I really would have appreciated a.
Speaker 5: Message rather than being ghosted, like just tell me if
Speaker 5: you're not feeling it, to which he responded with like
Speaker 5: an essay and two phone calls around how like that's
Speaker 5: just not in his wheelhouse, Like he would never do that. Okay, great,
Speaker 5: moving on, So we still hung out, and like it
Speaker 5: came to Christmas and like I was in I was
Speaker 5: into State and he was in Melbourne, so it wasn't
Speaker 5: We didn't see each other for a little bit there,
Speaker 5: and then I came home and it was New Year's
Speaker 5: Eve and I had plans on the evening time and
Speaker 5: so did he. So we hung out during the day,
Speaker 5: had this great time, had awesome sex.
Speaker 6: It was just it was it was a great time.
Speaker 5: And then yeah, I went to my festival and we
Speaker 5: were like texting and then kind of texting up until
Speaker 5: midnight time and then I'd never heard from him, and I.
Speaker 6: Was like, okay, a new day whatever.
Speaker 5: Everyone has their things, and so it was came the
Speaker 5: new day and I didn't hear him from like three
Speaker 5: days after that, and I was like what the fuck
Speaker 5: is going on?
Speaker 6: And so I.
Speaker 5: Started to do some stalking and I went on to
Speaker 5: his Instagram, which he doesn't it's private.
Speaker 6: There's like two photos or whatever.
Speaker 5: So I was like, okay, I'm going to go to
Speaker 5: LinkedIn because I knew he worked, and so I went
Speaker 5: onto his link profile in LinkedIn profile and like pretty blank,
Speaker 5: to be honest, like not much there, but there was
Speaker 5: like all these endorsed skills, and I was like okay.
Speaker 5: And there was this one person who had done all
Speaker 5: these endorsed things, like you know when you get endorsed
Speaker 5: for LinkedIn or Excel or Communication or whatever. So I
Speaker 5: clicked on her profile. It's this gorgeous girl, and I
Speaker 5: was like, oh okay. So I was like searched her
Speaker 5: name in Facebook or Instagram, and like immediately pops up
Speaker 5: this beautiful girl and her beautiful child who's about three
Speaker 5: and looks exactly like this guy.
Speaker 6: So I was like okay.
Speaker 5: So I started to do a little bit more digging.
Speaker 6: I found out that he has a three year old
Speaker 6: and is he still married somewhat.
Speaker 5: Maybe recently divorced, perhaps separated, it's hard to say, but
Speaker 5: he's only thirty one. So I was like Okay, that's
Speaker 5: a bit, you know, not everyone's. It's pretty unusual I
Speaker 5: guess maybe yeah in my circle to be married at
Speaker 5: thirty one.
Speaker 6: So I was like, okay, you know, it's a lot.
Speaker 5: I mean at the time, I was totally heartbroken because
Speaker 5: I felt like, maybe like this was information I could
Speaker 5: have been priven to by the time that we you know,
Speaker 5: where we were at in our relationship, but apparently not. Anyway,
Speaker 5: I have yet to hear from this guy. And this
Speaker 5: is like a few months ago. I never heard from
Speaker 5: him after like the stroke of midnight. So he moved
Speaker 5: into you with totally different intentions than I did. But yeah,
Speaker 5: just wild that, like people have many alives.
Speaker 2: Huh wow, fuck.
Speaker 1: That is savage.
Speaker 3: Okay, well two things. Do they have an exclusive chat?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: No, I reckon he's living a double life. I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna say it. I reckon he could be still married
Speaker 2: one hundred Like, why would you not bring up that
Speaker 2: you have a kid or like an wife. Well, if
Speaker 2: he wouldn't if you were still married.
Speaker 3: From a guy, maybe he's like not thinking of it
Speaker 3: as seriously as she was. So she was like, there's
Speaker 3: no need. I'm an overshare. I know a lot of
Speaker 3: my mates aren't over shares, so they'd probably be like,
Speaker 3: there's no point telling this information if I don't see
Speaker 3: this going further. It's no basis.
Speaker 2: It doesn't really sound like that, because they obviously went
Speaker 2: to a festival, hung out heaps, and they were like,
Speaker 2: she was cooking for him, and they seemed to be
Speaker 2: doing like relationship type of far.
Speaker 3: But we thought, it's not as cynical as we think.
Speaker 3: Maybe he was on a break.
Speaker 1: You're going to say, maybe he died.
Speaker 3: There's bad chance as well.
Speaker 1: There is that God he could have died.
Speaker 3: That's even more cynical. But he he might have been
Speaker 3: separated from his like the mother of his child.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he could have been that's true.
Speaker 3: He could have been separated. He could have then maybe
Speaker 3: on New Year's gone to an event with her or
Speaker 3: gone to an event that she was at, sparked it
Speaker 3: back up and thought, I'm going to give this another
Speaker 3: go with the mother of my child.
Speaker 2: But the thing to this, the thing for me that
Speaker 2: I just don't get is if he sent her this
Speaker 2: big old essay on that he's not a ghost and
Speaker 2: blah blah blah, and then he actually goes and ghosts
Speaker 2: her that just doesn't make a lot of sense.
Speaker 3: Maybe he did turn into a pump? Can it be nice? Cerella?
Speaker 2: If I had to guess what happened, I would say
Speaker 2: maybe he was married, they have a kid. They went
Speaker 2: on a bit of a break when he kind of
Speaker 2: stopped texting her. Maybe he started talking to his ex again.
Speaker 2: Then he was kind of like, what do I want?
Speaker 2: And he was like, no, I still want to beat
Speaker 2: her and see how it goes. He's obviously had sex
Speaker 2: with her on the thirty first, just before New Year,
Speaker 2: but then obviously he's been with someone else on New
Speaker 2: Year's night and something's happened. To me, it sounds like
Speaker 2: he's probably hooked up with the mother of his kid
Speaker 2: and they're back on. And maybe the mother of the
Speaker 2: kid has seen her messages come through and maybe blocked her.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that would be a possibility.
Speaker 3: You never know, never know. Maybe yeah, maybe he's he's
Speaker 3: like trying to kick it off back with the mother
Speaker 3: of his kids again. But still just send a message.
Speaker 3: Don't think like when you've gone on a high horse
Speaker 3: about called her twice, sent an esavor. How you don't
Speaker 3: ghost and then end up ghosting your hypocrita.
Speaker 2: I also think that if you're serious about someone, you
Speaker 2: want to spend New Year's Eve with them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sorry, I hypocrital was the wrong word. You're you're
Speaker 3: a liar.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I also think it's a red flag if someone doesn't
Speaker 2: want to spend New Year's Eve with you, because when
Speaker 2: you're first seeing someone and you're kind of in that
Speaker 2: honeymoon stage, you want to have a New Year's Eve
Speaker 2: kiss with them, right, even if you're both doing separate plans,
Speaker 2: you somehow like make it work to come and see each.
Speaker 1: Other or try and like collide. Play.
Speaker 3: One of my exits, she had her party, I had
Speaker 3: my party, and then like before midnight, she came to
Speaker 3: mind just so we could kiss. Yeah, and then she
Speaker 3: went back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a red flag that he didn't want to
Speaker 2: I feel bad though. It's annoying when you find someone who, like,
Speaker 2: you're having the best sex ever with and then they
Speaker 2: just end up being douchebag, you know what.
Speaker 1: Everyone who I've had like.
Speaker 2: Actually that's not true, because I had the best sex
Speaker 2: ever with Michael, but there was this one other guy
Speaker 2: who I had like pretty good sex with and he
Speaker 2: ended up being a douchebag.
Speaker 3: Do you reckon. That's what makes them makes them good
Speaker 3: at sex because they douchebags something.
Speaker 1: She said, it was just a lot of practice.
Speaker 3: She was gentle, he was gentle. Drink sex.
Speaker 1: That's that's cute.
Speaker 3: I like that gentle.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like gentle, but knowing what you're doing so you're
Speaker 2: not like aggressive or raugh for.
Speaker 3: I think brought to my attention that I'm not very gentle.
Speaker 1: Now that looks he's looking at me like he's done
Speaker 1: something wrong.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just never thought it was a thing until recently.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to try and be gentle. It's not
Speaker 1: like it's a gentle area, you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, no, I I yeah, I just like in
Speaker 3: general just with like like I'm not really I'm very
Speaker 3: I don't know, strength the very heavy handed like oh
Speaker 3: cuddle when I like, you know when only general like
Speaker 3: grab it by the back of the neck and like
Speaker 3: walker into random things just fun like I'm very like,
Speaker 3: I don't know very Yeah.
Speaker 1: You're a bit like just like rough.
Speaker 3: Yeah you know that kid had you well, I broke
Speaker 3: a lot of my toys growing up, like because I
Speaker 3: was so rough with.
Speaker 1: Okay, but just because you broke a lot of your toys.
Speaker 1: Growing up doesn't mean that you can't be gentle in
Speaker 1: the bedroom.
Speaker 3: I'm not. Yeah, I'm talking in general.
Speaker 1: Okay, but you're also talking out in the bedroom.
Speaker 3: Yeah, in your bedroom as well, like if a like
Speaker 3: even at night, like I'll like pull in like it's
Speaker 3: like really roughly.
Speaker 1: Probably, Oh my god, it doesn't sound good.
Speaker 3: Just been brought to my attention recently.
Speaker 1: So you're gonna try and be a bit more gentle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I will. I don't even know I'm doing it.
Speaker 3: It's just me.
Speaker 1: I love it when I wish, like I'm gonna post
Speaker 1: the video.
Speaker 2: But like Matt when he said that he looks like
Speaker 2: he was like a naughty like school kid.
Speaker 1: He was like knew he'd done something wrong. Like I'm
Speaker 1: not very gentle.
Speaker 3: Very very rough handed with things, like a lot of
Speaker 3: my stuff break because I'm very like rough and like
Speaker 3: don't really treat things. You've seen me do stuff, I
Speaker 3: don't really do it that elegantly.
Speaker 2: And okay, well I'm not going to rinse you because
Speaker 2: it's your birthday. Birthday, Okay, guys, make sure you send
Speaker 2: Matt some Instagram love and TikTok love because he's on
