And I think 175 00:08:39,840 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 3: that all you have to do is just sit it 176 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:47,439 Speaker 3: down and be like, so I I really she seems 177 00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:49,440 Speaker 3: like the type person's probably gonna take it poor either way, 178 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,720 Speaker 3: But just say, like, I I'm really excited to tell 179 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:55,640 Speaker 3: you that I'm pregnant, and I just I wanted to 180 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 3: wait to tell you until I was kind of sure 181 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 3: it was going to be healthy and good, and I 182 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 3: really want to respect you know, the struggles. It's hard 183 00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: as well, because like, what are you actually saying that 184 00:09:03,360 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 3: out loud? I feel like it's not the right thing to. 185 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:05,600 Speaker 3: I don't think you do that. 186 00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: I think you don't even acknowledge that really well, I 187 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,720 Speaker 1: think as a best friend, say you were having a 188 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 1: kid and struggling and whatnot, and then you knew does 189 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 1: she know that her best friend's trying to or not 190 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:17,480 Speaker 1: at all? 191 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,760 Speaker 3: Nothing? So the girl that's pregnant, she knows her best 192 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 3: friends trying because she's having fertility issues. 193 00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:26,560 Speaker 1: And does the best friend who is really competitive know that, No, 194 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: she didn't know. 195 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:29,520 Speaker 3: She didn't even know they were trying. But also, here's 196 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: where you've gone wrong. You were scared to tell you 197 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,559 Speaker 3: were even trying. Yeah, because I was unfortunately as a 198 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,359 Speaker 3: best friend, like say. 199 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: Jake was trying and struggling and then me and Cassie 200 00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 1: got pregnant and like I knew he was struggling. I 201 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,319 Speaker 1: think you would still be like, oh my god, I'm 202 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: so happy for you. 203 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:44,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I would be like, I'd be like, I'm 204 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 3: so happy for you because we're trying and struggling. Yeah. 205 00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:48,800 Speaker 3: But that's like that's how my mind was. 206 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 1: But I'm thinking, like, does this make you reassess your 207 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: relationship if you're scared to tell your best friend the 208 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:54,800 Speaker 1: best friend the most beautiful thing that could ever happen 209 00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: to a human being. And she and if she just 210 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 1: goes full self centered and like. 211 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:01,480 Speaker 3: Ah fuck yeah, fuck yeah, she sounds just a little 212 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 3: poor me type is. Yeah, so I think that I 213 00:10:04,880 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 3: guess there's probably no wrong way to do it. I 214 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,480 Speaker 3: was gonna say, rip the bandaid. Yeah, it's going to 215 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 3: be a rip the band aid off situation. Just tell her. 216 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 3: And how she reacts is how she reacts. If she 217 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 3: gets really upset, she gets really upset, you might need 218 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 3: to take a break for a little while, but hopefully 219 00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 3: she comes to her senses and apologizes for how she reacted. 220 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 3: And yeah, I think that the biggest issue I see 221 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:32,200 Speaker 3: is that you were too scared to tell her you 222 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:32,680 Speaker 3: were trying. 223 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: I would even say the biggest issue is the dynamic 224 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: of the friendship. So I don't know, it sounds scared 225 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,319 Speaker 1: of her, Yeah, as a best friend. If like some 226 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: of the if you annoy me that much, and you're like, yeah, 227 00:10:42,400 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: she does sound scared, I'd be like, girl like step back, like. 228 00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:49,240 Speaker 3: This is controlling my life. How competitive you are? 229 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, basically I think does own it, rip it 230 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:54,880 Speaker 1: off and deal with how she reacts. 231 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, agreed, and. 232 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:57,720 Speaker 1: Then the balls in her court she can do I reckon. 233 00:10:57,800 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: You could also be overthinking in a sense of rip 234 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: it off and she goes, oh my god, this is 235 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:01,400 Speaker 1: the best thing ever. 236 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm happy for I've ever benefited doubt, and she'd 237 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:07,600 Speaker 3: be like, dang, we're struggling, happy for you.

Yeah, be tasteful, Like, but 240 00:11:14,520 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 3: just be tasteful about it, just in conversations. Just keep 241 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,079 Speaker 3: in mind that she is struggling, you know, if it's like, 242 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 3: maybe let her bring up how is the pregnancy going? 243 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 3: Let let her You still want to be able to 244 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 3: vent to people about things, But it's like it would 245 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 3: be a little bit hard to say, like if you 246 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:33,760 Speaker 3: got pregnant and then we were really trying, Like if 247 00:11:33,800 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 3: Cassie got pregnant, me and Beth were really trying and 248 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:40,079 Speaker 3: we couldn't and like Beth and Cassie were hanging out 249 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 3: and Cassie just like was complaining about pregnancy a lot. Yeah, 250 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,440 Speaker 3: it'd be that's like distasteful because like Beth really wants 251 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: to get pregnant and she can't, So you just got 252 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 3: to make sure you keep things in mind. 253 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, be conscious of it. I think as an adult too, 254 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,080 Speaker 1: she should be mature enough to realize even if she 255 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 1: is really competitive and like struggling, just show face for 256 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,079 Speaker 1: your best friend how happy you are for her, and 257 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: then go home and complain to your boyfriend. 258 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, and like, naturally she's gonna be jealous that you're pregnant, 259 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 3: and but like if she takes that out on you, 260 00:12:05,960 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 3: that's crazy.

They say they're afraid of hurting me 264 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: because I'm too sweet or too pure. I've even been 265 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 1: told you're too sweet. I just want to protect you 266 00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:31,559 Speaker 1: from the world. I feel like I'd hurt you if 267 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: we were together. This has happened at least five times. 268 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,400 Speaker 1: She had a crying face emoji day After that. We 269 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:42,679 Speaker 1: usually stay friends, but then I get the little sister treatment. 270 00:12:42,960 --> 00:12:46,280 Speaker 1: They become overprotective, warn me about other guys, say things 271 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: like don't trust him, don't trust any men, let's meet him. 272 00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 1: I honestly don't understand it.

It makes me feel unwanted and it's 280 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,640 Speaker 1: really confusing. I'm getting older, I'm thirty, and I keep 281 00:13:13,679 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 1: hearing the same thing, you're too innocent.

That's going 285 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:27,760 Speaker 3: to a point where you think something's wrong with you. 286 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,559 Speaker 1: Well, I guess yeah, And I could understand why she 287 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 1: feels that way because it's happened so many times for 288 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: so long, and you're like, it's a. 289 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 3: Me problem now, Yeah, you would be convinced of you 290 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:43,200 Speaker 3: problem human nature. Yeah, I just like, I don't know 291 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:47,400 Speaker 3: why people are saying you're too innocent. I assume if 292 00:13:47,400 --> 00:13:51,360 Speaker 3: it looks thing you think like, she just looks really 293 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,720 Speaker 3: innocent and young. She looks in it, she looks young, 294 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 3: looks innocent young, she's I don't know if that would 295 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 3: make me think you're too innocent, because like you meet 296 00:14:01,480 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 3: someone and you see how the way they act, so 297 00:14:05,679 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 3: like innocent sounds like a insult, right, it does? It does. 298 00:14:12,600 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 3: It's like kind of it's coming across as an insult. Yeah, 299 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 3: And I assume because like innocent is not an insult, 300 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:22,640 Speaker 3: you know, like quite often for a man, it's you 301 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 3: as like, oh, you're so innocent, But if you've been 302 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 3: hearing it your whole life, it's probably very annoying to here. 303 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 3: So for you, it is an insult. But I'm just 304 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:36,400 Speaker 3: trying to think, like we can shout from the rooftops 305 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,880 Speaker 3: that there's no, there's nothing wrong with you, because from 306 00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 3: our perspective and everyone else that would have ever heard this, 307 00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: they would think that. But like you're the one experiencing it. 308 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 3: So it's just hard because you want to stay true 309 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 3: to yourself and five people have said you're too innocent, 310 00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 3: and I just want to like protect you. 311 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess it comes back to like, oh, it's 312 00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,920 Speaker 1: not what you want to hear. It's like, dude's a shit, 313 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 1: men a shit. Yeah, And like it's so hard to 314 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: detach from what they're saying. 315 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 3: But in the end, I think. 316 00:15:11,200 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: Whatever makes you innocent, looks, personality, anything, is what makes 317 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:18,080 Speaker 1: you who you are, and that is beautiful in a sense. 318 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:20,360 Speaker 1: And one guy eventually is going to come along and 319 00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: appreciate everything that makes you you. And some people are 320 00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: categorizing this as innocent, So I just say, be true 321 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 1: to yourself. It's easier said than done, but fuck them, yeah, 322 00:15:29,880 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 1: because I think. 323 00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:33,320 Speaker 3: Maybe I think this could be a case of where 324 00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,280 Speaker 3: you have just actually had some genuine bad luck with men, 325 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 3: and maybe you are giving innocent okay, And so these 326 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 3: people are using something that they're making you the reason 327 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,200 Speaker 3: why they don't want to be with you. But I 328 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 3: think that you're not too innocent. I think that they 329 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:00,920 Speaker 3: just don't want to be with you, and they're too 330 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,520 Speaker 3: scared and not mature enough to tell you they just 331 00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 3: don't want to be with you because like the scapegoat, 332 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 3: because yeah, to be to say you're too innocent, I 333 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 3: think I'm gonna hurt you. That I don't want to 334 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 3: hurt you. That's just projecting onto you and making you 335 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 3: the problem when you're not the problem. And now you're 336 00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 3: convinced you're the problem, and so I think that, like 337 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 3: because someone someone said to it, Oh I just want 338 00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:29,120 Speaker 3: to protect you, fucking protect me, then be with me. 339 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 3: They just don't want to be with you. And that's 340 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 3: the harsh reality of it. So I do think this 341 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,920 Speaker 3: is a case of unfortunately, you've had a couple of 342 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 3: bad men. Maybe they seem nice, but they just haven't 343 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:41,320 Speaker 3: admitted that they don't want to be with you, and 344 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 3: they've said it's because of you that they don't want 345 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 3: to be with you, and they're trying to make themselves 346 00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,240 Speaker 3: feel better. Makes it harder together. I think you just 347 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 3: need to keep on going, you go. I think that's 348 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 3: I think that's the harsh reality of it. And I 349 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 3: don't have an answer of how to fix that, because 350 00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:55,440 Speaker 3: there is nothing wrong with you. So I'd say you 351 00:16:55,480 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 3: just have to keep on going and there will be 352 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 3: a man that like you're the one. I bet there 353 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 3: will be. 354 00:17:03,760 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: I bet he will appreciate all these characteristics that you have, yes. 355 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 3: And he will not take advantage of them. Am I 356 00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:12,639 Speaker 3: the asshole? 357 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 2: Oh? 358 00:17:13,359 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've been hanging out with my boyfriend for a 359 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,080 Speaker 3: year now. Yeah, wait, what hanging out? No, I've been 360 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 3: going out with my boyfriend for a year now, and 361 00:17:21,640 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 3: as much as I love him and we have fun together, 362 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:26,679 Speaker 3: it doesn't seem like he cares all that much about 363 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 3: me or what I think. For my birthday last year, 364 00:17:30,119 --> 00:17:33,040 Speaker 3: I really wanted a specific set of pajamas and he 365 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 3: knew this and got me them. Only thing is he 366 00:17:36,560 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 3: got them in the wrong color. Is this a red flag? 367 00:17:40,280 --> 00:17:44,200 Speaker 3: I mean, maybe that's extreme, but I did specify which 368 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:47,480 Speaker 3: two colors I want and he didn't get either. This 369 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:49,959 Speaker 3: isn't the only occasion of small things going out the window, 370 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 3: and maybe it's not even an issue, but I can't 371 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,720 Speaker 3: stop overthinking it means he doesn't really care enough about 372 00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:59,359 Speaker 3: me to take those things into account. Any input would 373 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 3: be helpful and be as harsh as you like. I 374 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 3: won't get offended. Thanks so much. Hmm, you know it 375 00:18:06,560 --> 00:18:11,640 Speaker 3: actually could. He genuinely just isn't listening to you. Could 376 00:18:11,680 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 3: be a bigger problem. So I can totally see why 377 00:18:15,000 --> 00:18:20,199 Speaker 3: you would think does he even care? Yeah, And the 378 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,920 Speaker 3: short answer be maybe no, he doesn't. It's a very 379 00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:29,199 Speaker 3: very simple thing to be like listening to your girlfriend 380 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,560 Speaker 3: say I really want these pajamas. I really love the 381 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 3: red and the blue, and you go into the shop 382 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,080 Speaker 3: and you think like what did she say? What did 383 00:18:37,119 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 3: she say? Would say, I'll just get the purple, like 384 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 3: one thing having a bad memory, but like I just 385 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:47,679 Speaker 3: think something like you know what I mean? Yeah, and. 386 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,480 Speaker 1: I'm gonna say stay here and be on your tippy 387 00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: toes for more to continue, Like if it's. 388 00:18:57,160 --> 00:19:00,439 Speaker 3: A reoccurring thing, I think that because this one not 389 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:02,399 Speaker 3: giving him an excuse. You don't know if the color 390 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,440 Speaker 3: was in stock or not if you didn't ask him. 391 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 3: But also it's like if he knew what color you 392 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,040 Speaker 3: wanted when you opened it, he would have said, I 393 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 3: know you really wanted one of these two other colors, 394 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,480 Speaker 3: but this is who they had, true, and so I 395 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: just really wanted to get you the pajamas. That's the 396 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:18,840 Speaker 3: right thing to do, you know what I mean. And 397 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,119 Speaker 3: it's like, clearly he just didn't give a fuck. 398 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: It brings up a bigger problem though, where like I 399 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,200 Speaker 1: think a lot of men don't listen to their partners 400 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: or the way they treat their partners aren't very healthy. 401 00:19:30,440 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 3: They kind of just like, I. 402 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:36,960 Speaker 1: Don't know his companion the right word, I don't keep going. 403 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: I was talking to this guy recently, actually my back guy. 404 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,119 Speaker 1: Oh he spat it as an absolute bar. 405 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:44,639 Speaker 3: I guess I'm definitely gonna butcher. 406 00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: It must be nice having a bad guy, Yeah, And 407 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: it was the different versions of men we were talking about. 408 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: At Lost Paradise I went to. We were staying across 409 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,320 Speaker 1: from like this group of boys and one girl was 410 00:19:58,320 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 1: staying with him and he was a partner of one 411 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: of the dudes, and me and Cassie, my girlfriend was 412 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: sitting in like the getting ready and you can hear everything, 413 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,359 Speaker 1: and he was joking and like it was it wasn't fine, 414 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 1: but he was in It was in a playful manner. 415 00:20:09,119 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: Like every day he would like complain to her about 416 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 1: like dumb shit, like once they're going into the festival 417 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,199 Speaker 1: and he's like, I can't remember what her name was, 418 00:20:15,320 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 1: potend it was Amy. 419 00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:18,560 Speaker 3: He's like Amy, hurry off, Like what are you doing? 420 00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 3: I've got to get in there with the boys. Like 421 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 3: what are you doing? He's like, you've been here all 422 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 3: day to sitting around doing enough. And he was joking, 423 00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 3: but also like he wasn't. 424 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: I mean, Cassie was at the start like oh it 425 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 1: was hah, And then it was just like this is 426 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: kind of like the it's just a little bit off 427 00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: the way he treats girls and the way he views 428 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:37,600 Speaker 1: his girlfriend. And I was telling my back guy about 429 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: this and he explained it in a sense of we 430 00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:44,960 Speaker 1: sort of talk about it as in frontal lobe development, 431 00:20:45,119 --> 00:20:48,760 Speaker 1: but there's different levels of men and relationships, and he's 432 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: in a relationship. And it's also not to say it's 433 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:57,440 Speaker 1: the girls in it too, where the loving attachment style 434 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:00,119 Speaker 1: is she kind of looks up to him, Okay, and 435 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:03,760 Speaker 1: she's therefore like just because that's what she thinks love 436 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:05,720 Speaker 1: is and how she can be treated. But you can 437 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: realize that you can't see it when you're in it. 438 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:10,040 Speaker 1: And we've seen this plenty of times that that's not 439 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:10,679 Speaker 1: what love is. 440 00:21:11,160 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 3: And this guy might be thinking round circle two. 441 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 1: I'm hoping I land here the pajamas thing that he 442 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: like he can do whatever he wants because she looks 443 00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 1: up to him as a partner. He could be like 444 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: subconsciously thinking that, Yeah, and there's different levels to love 445 00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:25,760 Speaker 1: and you don't realize it too. You get to the 446 00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: next one, and the next one I actually might do 447 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: some research on the other ones were really really insightful. Okay, 448 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:30,719 Speaker 1: that was like the bottom line, and that's not what 449 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,760 Speaker 1: love is. And you'll eventually realize it. And so the 450 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 1: girl and the festival and this girl right here might 451 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:37,520 Speaker 1: realize that, actually, this isn't what love is. This isn't 452 00:21:37,560 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: how I should be treated, This isn't anything to do 453 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 1: with love. And I've just been here thinking it's love. 454 00:21:43,240 --> 00:21:47,920 Speaker 3: Hey, I actually I think that so to you, the Baud, 455 00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,680 Speaker 3: he's sending this dilema in like, this is clearly something 456 00:21:50,680 --> 00:21:57,359 Speaker 3: that bothers you, and why should you have to just 457 00:21:57,560 --> 00:22:04,399 Speaker 3: accept that this is what he's like? Fuck that say something? 458 00:22:05,400 --> 00:22:09,480 Speaker 3: And I think people get scared of bringing something like 459 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:12,840 Speaker 3: this up because their feelings toward it are going to 460 00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:16,760 Speaker 3: get invalidated, and so then they think that the feeling 461 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,800 Speaker 3: is actually an invalid feeling because someone has said, you're crazy, 462 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 3: you're overthinking it. And so one of my biggest pet 463 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:28,920 Speaker 3: peeves is when someone's feelings get invalidated. And I try 464 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,040 Speaker 3: my very best all the time to just like try 465 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:34,000 Speaker 3: I try not to like sometimes I sometimes I invalidate 466 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,760 Speaker 3: feelings and I try my best not to. And I 467 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:42,639 Speaker 3: just think that if you say something and he says 468 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,720 Speaker 3: that's dumb, he's invalidating your feelings. And if you say, 469 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 3: don't you want do you not see that that is 470 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:49,359 Speaker 3: just invalidating how I feel. I'm trying to tell you 471 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 3: how I feel about a certain thing. It's just a huge, 472 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 3: huge tell to how they are as a person. So 473 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 3: it's like you're unfortunately figuring out that this isn't someone 474 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 3: you want to be with. Yeah. 475 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 1: And I would go as far as saying, the fact 476 00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:07,440 Speaker 1: that you sent a dilemmay in, I'm going to assume 477 00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:08,160 Speaker 1: that this isn't. 478 00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:10,080 Speaker 3: The only thing she said. There's many more. 479 00:23:10,160 --> 00:23:11,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I reckon, like, the fact that you've sent 480 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:15,679 Speaker 1: this dilemma in is you realizing that it's an issue. 481 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,800 Speaker 1: It's an issue, and you want confirmation that it's an 482 00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: issue because you don't know in your head. But realistically, 483 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:21,640 Speaker 1: if you listen to your gut, listen to your brain, 484 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:22,880 Speaker 1: listen to your heart, you'd be. 485 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 3: Like, hmm, this doesn't feel right, does it? Yeah? Yeah, 486 00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 3: And they it's kind of hard because it's so hard 487 00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 3: when you're in it. So this little thing means something 488 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 3: to you, Right, And so I go through maybe a 489 00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 3: dilemmas in my head of like sometimes some feelings actually 490 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:47,720 Speaker 3: are invalid, And it's like, how do you navigate when 491 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 3: there is a feeling that is invalid. My answer is, 492 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:56,720 Speaker 3: actually I don't actually know, but usually something can just 493 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 3: be so outlandish that it's fucking invalid. But I just 494 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:05,120 Speaker 3: think that to me on someone on the outside, if 495 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 3: you told me that you brought this up and it 496 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:09,320 Speaker 3: didn't get taken well and you broke up with them, 497 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,240 Speaker 3: I wouldn't think like, you're insane neither, you know what 498 00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 3: I mean. Like, I wouldn't say, oh, you're you've got 499 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 3: two high standards. I would be like, honestly fucking vallid, 500 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 3: like little things matter. 501 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,800 Speaker 1: And it's also like deeping it quite a lot. Like 502 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 1: another thing this boyfriend's done is maybe in his life. 503 00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 1: Maybe in his life, birthdays don't mean anything to him, 504 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:36,680 Speaker 1: but in yours they do him as your boyfriend should 505 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:38,600 Speaker 1: realize how much something means to you and make it 506 00:24:38,640 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 1: special for you. Yeah, and like just see what makes 507 00:24:42,920 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: up your girlfriend. 508 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:48,200 Speaker 3: He's not doing enough, I'd say, I agree. I don't think. Yeah, 509 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 3: I think he's not doing enough. I think that unfortunately. 510 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 3: I think you need to bring it up and hopefully 511 00:24:54,119 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 3: he changes and if he doesn't, dump him. Agreed. Agreed, 512 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,280 Speaker 3: So no, you're not the asshole, by the way, Oh 513 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 3: not at all. That was a name only author. 514 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 1: Next dilemma, I think we've done something similar, but seems 515 00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,640 Speaker 1: to be a reoccurring problem, so let's talk about it. 516 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: My boyfriend and I have been together for about a year. 517 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 1: We're talking about moving in when our least cycles are 518 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,480 Speaker 1: up in about six months. I love him a lot 519 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,760 Speaker 1: and see a future with him and can't wait until 520 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: I get to come home to him every day. The 521 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 1: problem is we have very different standards of cleanliness. I'm 522 00:25:28,960 --> 00:25:31,840 Speaker 1: a perfectionists, like to keep things organized, tidy, and it 523 00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 1: helps me feel less overwhelmed and stressed. He has raging 524 00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 1: adhd in brackets, has tried meds, didn't like them, and 525 00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:43,919 Speaker 1: his place is a mess where talking counters full of stuff, 526 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,200 Speaker 1: clothes and shoes all over the place. I often ask 527 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 1: him to pick up a bit so I can see 528 00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,000 Speaker 1: the floor before coming over. He has a dog, who 529 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: I also love, but mess plus dog for only makes 530 00:25:56,320 --> 00:25:56,720 Speaker 1: it worse. 531 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: He says, when we move in. 532 00:25:58,640 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 1: Together, we will make a tor chart and if that 533 00:26:01,720 --> 00:26:06,959 Speaker 1: doesn't suffice, hire a cleaning service. This sounds fine in theory, 534 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: but my thought is why not start now. If he's 535 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: not keeping his own place clean, why should I expect 536 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 1: him to all of a sudden improve his life when 537 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,120 Speaker 1: we move into move in together. People who have said 538 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:19,480 Speaker 1: that's true, it's different when you do live with someone 539 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,000 Speaker 1: and it's a shared space. So my dilemma is, do 540 00:26:22,200 --> 00:26:24,600 Speaker 1: men really change when living with a partner? Or should 541 00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: I expect to be stuck living in squirrel? 542 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 3: Or? What's squalor? Is that when used in a sentence, 543 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:38,199 Speaker 3: I know what it means, but I don't actually know 544 00:26:38,240 --> 00:26:42,000 Speaker 3: what squalor means in squalor for the rest of eternity living. Yeah, 545 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 3: it's hard, like when using a sense I kin'd of 546 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 3: know what she means, maybe just like stuck in the situation? Yeah, 547 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 3: but yeah, I don't actually know what that means in 548 00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 3: definition to answer your question. So, I don't think I 549 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,119 Speaker 3: was ever as bad as this guy sounds. But I 550 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 3: I changed when a movement with Beth. You were dirty? 551 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 3: We live together? You? 552 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 2: No? 553 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 3: No, I wasn't bad. I was just like I definitely 554 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:09,400 Speaker 3: changed though, Like I went from being somewhat pretty neat 555 00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:14,000 Speaker 3: and dirty to now being like, fucking I'm a pretty 556 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 3: bit of a neat freak now, and it like annoys 557 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,080 Speaker 3: me and I actually can't really relax when stuff is dirty, 558 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 3: and so I would say I definitely changed, but mine 559 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 3: wasn't like an extreme change. 560 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 1: So we're hoping love takes over this man and so 561 00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 1: just becomes a bit of a neat freak. 562 00:27:30,359 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 3: And this and that's the thing. So it's hard, Okay, 563 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 3: let me think about this. So I have said before 564 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 3: that when I lived with my sister, I weaponized my incompetence. Right, 565 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 3: she was cleaner than I, And now I would say 566 00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 3: I am now as clean as she was when I 567 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 3: lived with her, But for some reason, it took moving 568 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,479 Speaker 3: in with Beth to do that. And so when Joanna 569 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 3: and I live together, she would complained about things and 570 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 3: I would weaponize maing competence by being like, there's different 571 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,680 Speaker 3: levels of cleanliness, like yours is higher than mine, blah 572 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 3: blah blah blah blah. And then after she moved out, 573 00:28:03,160 --> 00:28:05,199 Speaker 3: or after I moved out, unfortunately, I came to the 574 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 3: realization of there is really only one level of clean 575 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:12,639 Speaker 3: and that's clean. And so I just don't want you 576 00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:15,960 Speaker 3: to be a victim of him weaponizing his incompetence, you 577 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 3: know what I mean. Yeah, And so basically there is 578 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:23,280 Speaker 3: only one level of clean. You're not too clean, all right, 579 00:28:23,400 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 3: Like you're not a perfectionist, like you just like things clean, yeah, 580 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 3: and like everything has a place to you. That's good 581 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:35,119 Speaker 3: because everything should have a place. So I think that 582 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:39,320 Speaker 3: in this situation, I just am not too sure whether 583 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,920 Speaker 3: or not compromise needs to be spoken about. I think 584 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:45,480 Speaker 3: he just needs to literally fucking pick up his act. 585 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: I was gonna say, like your thinking process in a 586 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: sense of you're like, why doesn't he make a change now? 587 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 3: Even though I'm coming over and stuff? Why don't you 588 00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:55,440 Speaker 3: just say that to him? 589 00:28:55,680 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, be like, look, I'm looking forward to moving in 590 00:28:58,600 --> 00:29:01,920 Speaker 1: with you, but we both know look around, like it's 591 00:29:01,960 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 1: not very clean here. 592 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:04,680 Speaker 3: I don't feel very comfortable here. It's overwhelming. 593 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just outright gross, and like I want to 594 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:09,600 Speaker 1: live with you, but I'm struggling to see what that's 595 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: going to look like if you continue to live. 596 00:29:11,600 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 3: This way, ballad bro, Because like, I wouldn't think it's 597 00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 3: a bad thing to say. I don't even think it's 598 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:20,800 Speaker 3: harsh if you just say because I will not live 599 00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 3: like this, because why would he expect that of you? Exactly? 600 00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 3: And to his point, so he's got ADHD which see 601 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:31,160 Speaker 3: I don't know what it's like to live with that, Yes. 602 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:36,280 Speaker 1: But not taking away from that. His sort of way 603 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 1: out of it is high a cleaning service. To me, 604 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:39,800 Speaker 1: that seems like laziness. 605 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,880 Speaker 3: It's laziness. But also they come once a week. You're 606 00:29:42,880 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 3: not going to have them there every day, because that's. 607 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,800 Speaker 1: Very like hiring a cleaning service doesn't seem like you're 608 00:29:46,840 --> 00:29:48,200 Speaker 1: trying to do anything. 609 00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:52,720 Speaker 3: You're just trying to offload the problem. Like that rubbed 610 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,200 Speaker 3: me the wrong way. Like, what's going to happen is 611 00:29:54,200 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 3: your house is going to be cleaned one day a week. 612 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 3: It's going to be cleaned for twenty four hours, and 613 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 3: then it's going to start to get dirty and two 614 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:01,760 Speaker 3: days in it's going to be fucked again. 615 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think the compromise is I agree with you, 616 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 1: there's only one level of clean. But maybe he has 617 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: an office or a gaming room which gets. 618 00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:15,120 Speaker 3: To be his room. I agree. I do agree with that. 619 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:18,920 Speaker 3: But also it's like I just think it just gives 620 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:20,240 Speaker 3: him a reason to be messy. 621 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,800 Speaker 1: I'm playing on the ADHD side of thing. Yeah, if 622 00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:24,040 Speaker 1: it was just the grub, I would say no. 623 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:31,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just don't know. Also, anyone with ADHD please comment. 624 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 3: Are we allowed to blame being messy on ADHD? You 625 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 3: know what I mean? Yeah, like is that the same 626 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 3: as you know, like pretty extreme example. But if someone 627 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 3: has ADHD, are they more likely to cheat? And they're 628 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 3: allowed to cheat because of that? Like it's an issue. 629 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 3: But like this is me asking because I don't actually 630 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 3: I don't want to go out there and say, like 631 00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 3: just because I don't want to be there be able 632 00:30:58,000 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 3: to go out there and say, you know, he needs 633 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:01,440 Speaker 3: to pick up his act even though he has ADHD. Like, 634 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 3: so my question is are people allowed to blame being 635 00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 3: messy on ADHD? Yeah? 636 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: And I don't know there'd be appropriate steps to working 637 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: with it, because I know ADHD is like you start 638 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:18,800 Speaker 1: cleaning and you think about drawing, and then you'd go 639 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 1: drawing and you think about, oh, I didn't get anything 640 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,040 Speaker 1: out of my car. I had a million projects going on. 641 00:31:23,160 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 3: I had the funniest ADHD moment yesterday. So I was 642 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:34,040 Speaker 3: downstairs putting laundry on. I put all the laundry in 643 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 3: and then there was one more sock. Put it in, 644 00:31:36,680 --> 00:31:39,480 Speaker 3: and then I knew where the second sock was upstairs. 645 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 3: All right, I go up to get the second stock, 646 00:31:42,680 --> 00:31:45,320 Speaker 3: second sock there's some clean washing on the stairs, and 647 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 3: I'm like, I will bring that back up with me 648 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 3: on my second trip after bringing the sock down, I 649 00:31:51,320 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 3: go up, I pick up the sock, I bring it down. 650 00:31:54,040 --> 00:31:56,440 Speaker 3: I put it in the dirty laundry basket. I go 651 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:59,560 Speaker 3: back upstairs. I leave that clean washing again. I go 652 00:31:59,720 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 3: up and then I start doing some work on my computer, 653 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:04,640 Speaker 3: and then Johanna comes in and she goes, oh, I 654 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:06,080 Speaker 3: do you reckon? I can get sprinkles out, which is 655 00:32:06,080 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: our pet snake, and I'm like, oh, yeah, why not. 656 00:32:09,160 --> 00:32:10,800 Speaker 3: I get sprinkles out for Joanna, and I'm like, oh, 657 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,920 Speaker 3: he's water needs filling up. I go downstairs, and when 658 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 3: I get to the bottom of the stairs with his 659 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:18,720 Speaker 3: water bowl, I'm like, I literally just got nothing done 660 00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 3: for thirty minutes. 661 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 1: Well, yo, my toxic trait is we've closed in the 662 00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: washing machine. I have an urge of like, oh, I'll 663 00:32:27,120 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: get clean, I'll do my stuff completely, forget about it. 664 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 3: My new washing machine doesn't beep e.

I read Akatar 675 00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,880 Speaker 3: and Fourth Wing and realized I'm in the wrong relationship. 676 00:33:12,320 --> 00:33:13,960 Speaker 3: Will I ever find a man as good as the 677 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:16,360 Speaker 3: one in my books? Or did I leave my relationship 678 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 3: on false hope? 679 00:33:19,760 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: You did not leave your relationship on false hope.

All right, but if you want, 689 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 3: if your standards are the way rece treats faivorh not 690 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 3: those standards hard to come by. No, I mean they're 691 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,080 Speaker 3: hard to come by.

Next one met 710 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 3: the most perfect man, flirted with him for months and 711 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,479 Speaker 3: invited him out one night, and we had so much 712 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 3: fun until his younger brother mentioned he had a girlfriend. 713 00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 3: So I slept with a younger brother. Then I find 714 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:21,400 Speaker 3: out that the other one is considering leaving his girlfriend 715 00:35:21,719 --> 00:35:27,280 Speaker 3: praying his younger brother doesn't say anything that's nasty, leaving 716 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 3: the girlfriend to get with her.

Anyway? 718 00:35:32,120 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you always slept with the brother. That means 719 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:36,880 Speaker 1: the other one's off limits. It should mean that, but 720 00:35:36,920 --> 00:35:37,880 Speaker 1: some people don't do that. 721 00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:39,440 Speaker 3: No, some people don't do that, but it should mean that. 722 00:35:39,440 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 3: I agree.

Probably not a quick answer, though, Ah My 743 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: boyfriend has gained a lot of weight, like thirty key 744 00:36:46,680 --> 00:36:48,920 Speaker 1: lows in one year, and I don't know how to 745 00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:51,080 Speaker 1: tell him that. I want him to stop eating trash 746 00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,360 Speaker 1: and go back to the gym. I mean, he is 747 00:36:53,440 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 1: a totally different person than when I met him. He 748 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: can't even go up a bunch of stairs without losing weight. 749 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: I don't know what to do without losing breath. So 750 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: I don't know what to do. 751 00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 3: This is hard because on the subject of weight, it's 752 00:37:08,200 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 3: just a bit of a touchy subject. But well, she 753 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 3: did say one thing in there that resonated with me 754 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 3: a bit. She said, he's a completely different person to 755 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 3: whom I started dating. Now, I assume when you started 756 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,720 Speaker 3: dating like he was thirty kilos lighter, which that means 757 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 3: he probably ate differently. He maybe worked out, she said, 758 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 3: don't want to go back to the gym. So you 759 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:37,080 Speaker 3: started dating someone that ticked all these boxes, and so 760 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:41,759 Speaker 3: he is a completely different person because that even means 761 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:48,880 Speaker 3: like his personality is starting to change. I gotta say, 762 00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:53,920 Speaker 3: I think you just need to like say that. I agree, 763 00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:57,799 Speaker 3: because you have standards, you say like this, The weight 764 00:37:57,840 --> 00:38:00,879 Speaker 3: isn't the problem. His lifestyle is the problem. That's the thing. Yeah, 765 00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:03,960 Speaker 3: it's like him the way is a byproduct of the 766 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,359 Speaker 3: person that he's changed into. So yeah, like to you, 767 00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,919 Speaker 3: the weight probably makes you less attracted to him. Yeah, 768 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 3: you may feel shallow saying that, but look, it's fine. 769 00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 3: It is what it is. It's not shallow. It's like 770 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:17,520 Speaker 3: it's just it's just black and white. 771 00:38:17,560 --> 00:38:17,839 Speaker 4: It is. 772 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 3: And but I think, yeah, the problem is the fact 773 00:38:21,440 --> 00:38:27,720 Speaker 3: that he let himself get there. And so yeah, people 774 00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 3: just get real touchy around weight and feel bad. And 775 00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 3: he probably does feel self conscious. But it's starting to 776 00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:33,600 Speaker 3: affect you now. 777 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:37,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you just don't align with the decisions you 778 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:40,800 Speaker 1: make in day to day life with food health choices, 779 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 1: and it could be an underlying problem so you want 780 00:38:43,480 --> 00:38:45,440 Speaker 1: to be there to support him for why he might 781 00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,960 Speaker 1: be eating this way or putting on the weight, if 782 00:38:48,040 --> 00:38:49,799 Speaker 1: you want to stick around for that and get to 783 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,279 Speaker 1: the bottom of that together. But also you just need 784 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:54,279 Speaker 1: to voice how you're feeling because he might just be 785 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,000 Speaker 1: unbeknownst to how you're feeling. 786 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, and just think he doesn't even notice. 787 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:05,520 Speaker 1: It's the classic boyfriend bod Like prior to getting a partner, 788 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,719 Speaker 1: you grind the gym, you become the best version of yourself, 789 00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:11,880 Speaker 1: and then some people who haven't been relationships before just go, 790 00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:13,600 Speaker 1: I've got the. 791 00:39:13,520 --> 00:39:15,960 Speaker 3: Girl, like I don't have to try anymore. Yeah, it's 792 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,799 Speaker 3: a hard one. Yeah, a lot of people do that 793 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:19,040 Speaker 3: and they don't even realize they do it. 794 00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:21,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, the effort's gone, and maybe he might just need 795 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: a little kick in the bum and be like, look, 796 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: I fucking love you and I kind of just have 797 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: been doing the BAM in him and haven't even realized. 798 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,520 Speaker 3: Because like, how can you treat me good if you 799 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,560 Speaker 3: can't treat yourself good? Exactly A good question, I think. 800 00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:36,920 Speaker 3: Just tell him how you feel, and that's the only 801 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,680 Speaker 3: thing you can do. Yeah, it's like hard because you 802 00:39:38,719 --> 00:39:41,440 Speaker 3: don't you're making it sound like your love is conditional, 803 00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 3: but he's a different person. Yeah, this isn't who you 804 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:48,399 Speaker 3: fell in love with. Yeah, so it's hard to bring up, 805 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,560 Speaker 3: but gotta do it.
