Speaker 1: to talk to today.

13
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 3: I had to said when they first came to us

14
00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:57,760
Speaker 3: about I Do Part two, and we said, okay, it

15
00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,160
Speaker 3: sounds fun. They gave us a couple of names, and

16
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:04,399
Speaker 3: then they told us about Kelly bin Simone. I was like, okay, cool, fine,

17
00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 3: and went back and watched her season, yes, our seasons

18
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:16,480
Speaker 3: as a real housewife yep, and got one impression. But

19
00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 3: then when we met her, she is absolutely one of

20
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: the highlights of agreeing to do I Do Part two.

21
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 3: She is just this is a compliment, Kelly, You're a hoot.

22
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 3: That's a compliment. Okay, she's a hoot.

23
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: She's full of life and enthusiasm, and I would just

24
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,279
Speaker 1: go with this. You're passionate, Kelly, and I appreciate someone

25
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 1: who's invested, and that means sometimes when things are good

26
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: and sometimes when things aren't so good, but you know

27
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: exactly where you stand. And I appreciate people like that.

28
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,680
Speaker 1: You don't mince words, you don't pretend, you say what

29
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,080
Speaker 1: you think, and you mean what you say. And so

30
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 1: we like people like you.

31
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 4: Kelly, oh Amy, you guys are the best. I mean,

32
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,720
Speaker 4: you know, I started this with you, and so I'm

33
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 4: actually really excited to talk to you because I've changed.

34
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,280
Speaker 4: I know people are like I've changed, No, but I

35
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 4: genuinely and inherently feel a fundamental change, not only in

36
00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:17,480
Speaker 4: the way that I see myself, the way that I

37
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 4: talk about myself, but the way that I uh handle

38
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 4: myself with other people, and how I and the expectations

39
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 4: I have for myself and the expectations I have for

40
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 4: other people.

41
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 3: What prompted the change, Kelly, Uh.

42
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 5: It was a very cathartic moment. We've seen some very

43
00:02:38,120 --> 00:02:41,840
Speaker 5: strange things. We've seen some like Alison wonderfully, I'm like.

44
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: Ah, I cannot say that, No, but you've been really open,

45
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: You've been really open about your love journey, and we

46
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:53,399
Speaker 1: actually are coming to you for this podcast because we

47
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,800
Speaker 1: want an update. You actually had a first date in

48
00:02:57,919 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 1: real life. You were set up by one of our

49
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: producers here on I do Part two, and we cannot

50
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: wait to hear the details because this was weeks in

51
00:03:07,440 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: the making. Correct.

52
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,920
Speaker 4: Yes, I mean we've had a lot of fun. You know,

53
00:03:12,080 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 4: Jenna Kramer and I have had so much fun. She

54
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:20,920
Speaker 4: I like literally was dming movie stars with her and

55
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 4: new friends that we've been Cheryl Brooke has been a

56
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 4: really good, good new friend of mine.

57
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 5: I've made some other new friends on the podcast.

58
00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 4: We've been doing all these fun and wild like antics

59
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 4: to meet new guys. But actually, my executive producer, she's like,

60
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 4: I have this great guy for you, and there's a

61
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 4: reason I want you to meet him, and you're gonna

62
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 4: tell me.

63
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 5: Why after you met him.

64
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,680
Speaker 4: So we start talking and texting first, and then I'm

65
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 4: chatting on the phone for the past like two weeks.

66
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 4: I'm stellar human, highly educated, beautiful family, respectful to his

67
00:03:57,200 --> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 4: ex wife, really good genuine father. You guys are you

68
00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 4: guys are great parents. You can really appreciate that. Just

69
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 4: a very stellar human and you know, it's interesting because

70
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:13,720
Speaker 4: she's like, how was the date? And I was, you know,

71
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 4: saying we were kind of I'm gonna talk about that.

72
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 4: But before we even talk about the date, the thing

73
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 4: that for me is just so wildly important is that I,

74
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 4: Kelly Calaurin Ben Simone, can finally date.

75
00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:30,160
Speaker 5: A stellar human.

76
00:04:31,600 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 4: I have confidence to actually date someone who I respect,

77
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: and I think that is.

78
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:43,599
Speaker 5: Something that is so new for me.

79
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,040
Speaker 4: And I'm just you know, very very happy that I

80
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 4: got to meet mister Tennis.

81
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 3: You know it also Kelly called me crazy. This doesn't

82
00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 3: sound like a transition. What you're explaining here is something

83
00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,760
Speaker 3: that would happen overnight. How long have you been going

84
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 3: through this thing? I mean, has your and tired, tired

85
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 3: dating life been that other Kelly who was maybe dating

86
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,640
Speaker 3: someone that you shouldn't have been dating and now here

87
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,200
Speaker 3: you are? But how that has to be a year's

88
00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: long process to get to this point.

89
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:20,159
Speaker 4: Well, I mean it's been really full on since I

90
00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:22,159
Speaker 4: met you guys last fall.

91
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 3: No, seriously, so you prompted it, you are, you know,

92
00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 3: this is why we're here. We're here to do good work.

93
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 4: Seriously, and you know, it was really interesting because, like

94
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,120
Speaker 4: you know, talked about how you know you met me

95
00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 4: and you know you you know you watch my shows

96
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 4: and then you then you met me in real life,

97
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:44,200
Speaker 4: and you know when I sat down with you, with

98
00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 4: you guys for the first and I've been interviewed by

99
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:49,440
Speaker 4: a lot of people, and I just felt immediately very

100
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 4: drawn to you guys, and I my my executive producer.

101
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 4: She was like, when you first did that interview with them,

102
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 4: She's like, I could tell you really want wanted to

103
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:06,600
Speaker 4: tell you know the two of you more. But I

104
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 4: was just so like wound up and so guarded that

105
00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:14,560
Speaker 4: I was afraid. I mean I was even like I

106
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 4: wasn't even looking up the entire the entire podcast.

107
00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:17,840
Speaker 5: I'm looking down like that.

108
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know what. You know what it is, though, Kelly.

109
00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,720
Speaker 1: I think when you've lived a lot of your life,

110
00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: or at least the life that people know of you

111
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: in front of a camera and you know you're viewed

112
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,520
Speaker 1: through that lens only you know people are looking at

113
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:37,120
Speaker 1: perhaps maybe your weakest or your least proud of moments

114
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: and defining you by that, you start defining yourself by that.

115
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 1: You don't feel like you're worthy, you don't feel you

116
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 1: can look up because people have seen you not just

117
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,279
Speaker 1: at your best shining amazing self, but maybe at your

118
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 1: at your not your worst moment, but at your less

119
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,400
Speaker 1: than best moments. And that's tough to know that they

120
00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: live on and people can watch them and then form

121
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 1: opinions of you before they even meet you. That's that's

122
00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: not a fun space to be in.

123
00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 5: Right, And I appreciate that.

124
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,000
Speaker 4: I think you never hear the good because you're not

125
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 4: really focusing on the good.

126
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 5: All you do is hear that. You know, people are like,

127
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 5: oh my god, you're awful, You're this, you're that.

128
00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,960
Speaker 4: And so I was just wildly insecure for so long

129
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 4: for obvious reasons.

130
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,160
Speaker 5: When you spend a lot of time.

131
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 4: By yourself, it's not like you're like, great work, You're awesome,

132
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 4: good job, you know, it's like you're just like, you know,

133
00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:26,760
Speaker 4: a one man band. And you know, my ex husband

134
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,440
Speaker 4: was significantly older, and we weren't, you know, we didn't

135
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 4: have that kind of virgin River love where you know,

136
00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 4: you see people and they're.

137
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 5: Like, how is your day? I just really care about

138
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:40,800
Speaker 5: how you feel. My exis was French. He never he

139
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 5: didn't even know what was he gonna say? Oh, your feelings,

140
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 5: how are your feelings? We never asked that.

141
00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,440
Speaker 1: I love that you made a Virgin River reference. I'm

142
00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:51,920
Speaker 1: obsessed with that. Also, just such a false narrative of

143
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: what life is or love is. But anyway, still get

144
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: sucked into the narrative of it all. That's hilarious.

145
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 4: So anyway, my point is, and then from that on,

146
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 4: from that and you know, moving on to different dating

147
00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:07,440
Speaker 4: different people, like you know, being a television and dating

148
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,320
Speaker 4: people that were not the right people for me. But

149
00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:12,400
Speaker 4: you know how in the housewives world, you know, you

150
00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:15,160
Speaker 4: guys are in the news. We're in the funny business.

151
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 4: So it's like, you know, people treat you because they

152
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:21,320
Speaker 4: respect you, and they they can't wait to hear what's

153
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 4: coming out of your mouth. For us, it's like it's

154
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,880
Speaker 4: a show, what's happening, you know whatever.

155
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: We became both Kelly just so you know, true.

156
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:34,360
Speaker 4: And yet I thought it true true, But I mean

157
00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 4: just for the birth, like you know, the ninety percent

158
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 4: is like the good news, and so I guess just

159
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 4: from being a part of that narrative, which was very

160
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,080
Speaker 4: difficult for me to navigate and also be raising two

161
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 4: kids alone, I became I was around people that were

162
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 4: like if they liked me.

163
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 5: I was like, oh, they like me, of course, you know.

164
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 4: I wasn't like, I'm going to wait, I'm going to

165
00:08:57,800 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 4: kind of figure out what, you know, what are the

166
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 4: things that I I am looking for in my life?

167
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:06,760
Speaker 4: And so I kind of gravitated towards those love bombers,

168
00:09:07,120 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 4: you know, the super fast we're going to get married tomorrow,

169
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:14,760
Speaker 4: all of that kind of nonsense. And you know, now

170
00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,040
Speaker 4: we know of them as red flags, but like I

171
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,920
Speaker 4: am focused on the green flags. I am focused on

172
00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:24,400
Speaker 4: all of the good news, the slow and steady wins,

173
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 4: the race, the stellar humans, the the.

174
00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 5: Good the good news, like the good Bears.

175
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,000
Speaker 4: I don't you know, I'm not interested in anyone who

176
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:34,920
Speaker 4: wants to like, there's no song and dance.

177
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 5: I don't want you know, that's that's the past.

178
00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,800

315
00:15:54,360 --> 00:15:56,480
Speaker 3: if you didn't interview him kind of what was the

316
00:15:56,520 --> 00:15:58,640
Speaker 3: back and forth, the conversation, a lot of laughter, where

317
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 3: the drink's flowing. It was an eye of how that went.

318
00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:03,360
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, so we went to the corner bar. We're

319
00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:05,920
Speaker 4: at the bar. This was one thing that he did

320
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,560
Speaker 4: and I thought was very sweet. They the bar at

321
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,840
Speaker 4: the corner bar is like this highly coveted bar, and

322

Speaker 5: I want seats that are over there.

327
00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,000

328
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 4: making an effort to create an environment that was, you know,

329
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 4: calm for him, but also like I wasn't sitting in

00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:36,720
Speaker 4: like a salad at sant Ambrose and we just walked around.

471
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,200
Speaker 4: And then he wanted to get tennis sneakers because I

472
00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 4: told him when he came, because he's a tennis player,

473
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 4: I said, you should definitely play tennis at Vanderbilt. You

474
00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 4: have to play tennis there. It's the coolest, coolest court.

475
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 4: So he got tent He was like, I need to

476
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 4: get tennis shoes. So we went to the Wilson store

477
00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 4: on Broadway and he's like, what are you telling you about?

478
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 5: What is going on here?

479
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,919
Speaker 4: They have a tennis court in the back of the store,

480
00:23:00,359 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 4: which we discovered, so we're like literally playing tennis.

481
00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:05,800
Speaker 5: He taught me how to throw football.

482
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,280
Speaker 4: We were like, you know, shooting basketball. It was really

483
00:23:09,320 --> 00:23:11,800
Speaker 4: like fun. I felt like I was on the Bachelor.

484
00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 4: I was like, wait a minute.

485
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,600
Speaker 3: This is like, Kelly, this is cool. We've gotten to

486
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:20,640
Speaker 3: know you a little bit. And yes, as you described

487
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:23,560
Speaker 3: our first meeting in that first episode we taped, we agree.

488
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,360
Speaker 3: But you are on fire right now looking at you,

489
00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,280
Speaker 3: and the folks can hear it in your voice. I'm sure,

490
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,320
Speaker 3: but you are excited as well. You should look at her.

491
00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:40,199
Speaker 3: She looks smitten. That's the word. You look smitten. And

492
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 3: you should stay there until further notice.

493
00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:46,640
Speaker 1: That's nice because it could have been awkward. It could

494
00:23:46,640 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: have gone sideways. You could have realized there was no chemistry.

495
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,440
Speaker 1: So this is like, it sounds like best case scenario.

496
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,440
Speaker 1: Do you what I've got a question in here again?

497

611
00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,240
Speaker 3: that that we've had on and who are trying to

612
00:28:54,280 --> 00:28:59,880
Speaker 3: find love. What have you now learned through your ex

613
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 3: experience that you're really ready to pass on because you

614
00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 3: were giving advice earlier on before you kind of came around,

615
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:11,800
Speaker 3: before you became the whole, new, full, new Kelly. So

616
00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 3: what advice now are you able to give given the

617
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 3: new Kelly and the new experience that you're going through.

618
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 4: Well, it's just it's interesting because I've been doing so

619
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:28,960
Speaker 4: much talking about relationships and so with him, I talked

620
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,320
Speaker 4: a lot about relationships, and he really liked that. He

621
00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:37,840
Speaker 4: liked hearing He likes talking about his relationships. I think

622
00:29:37,920 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 4: that he appreciated that I was open to hearing about

623
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:44,160
Speaker 4: whatever he wanted to share with what he was doing

624
00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,080
Speaker 4: and what he was going on with him. Like, I

625
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 4: think that that is something that's new to me. I mean,

626
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,320
Speaker 4: I'm not I've never been the person that's like, tell

627
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 4: him about your ex, can't wait to hear all about her.

628
00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:56,040
Speaker 5: I'm like, I don't care. Like I literally was like

629
00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:56,960
Speaker 5: I did not care.

630
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,960
Speaker 4: And I just been a dated you know, men who

631
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,920
Speaker 4: have had such wild exes that like, I really have

632
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:09,959
Speaker 4: zero interest in hearing about people's exes.

633
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:12,160
Speaker 5: But I I asked him.

634
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 4: Because I just was like, you know what, I'm not

635
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 4: going to be that person. I'm not going to be

636
00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:17,480
Speaker 4: closed off. I'm not going to be judgmental. You know,

637
00:30:17,560 --> 00:30:22,840
Speaker 4: everybody has everybody has people in their in their orbit.

638
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,120
Speaker 4: And I also, just like I said at the beginning,

639
00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 4: you know, the top of this just about how like

640
00:30:28,480 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 4: I just have more self respect, and so it's easy

641
00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 4: to say to somebody, oh, you have an ex, I'm

642
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,120
Speaker 4: sure she's so stupid and ugly. Like I used to say, like,

643
00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:40,320
Speaker 4: oh my god, your ex wife, she's so skinny, she

644
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:43,200
Speaker 4: hasn't eaten since the ice age. I think those are

645
00:30:43,240 --> 00:30:44,959
Speaker 4: the things that I used to say, which are awful,

646
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 4: and I don't want to say those anymore.

647
00:30:47,520 --> 00:30:48,000
Speaker 1: I love that.

648
00:30:48,360 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 5: I just don't want to have that narrative.

649
00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:51,920
Speaker 1: Well, it's about you. It's not about their past. It's

650
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: not about comparing. It's not about the comparison or the

651
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:57,840
Speaker 1: contrast of what he had versus where he is now

652
00:30:57,880 --> 00:31:01,240
Speaker 1: and all of that, and that's incredible growth I'm curious.

653
00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 5: I was interesting.

654
00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:04,560
Speaker 4: I'm not going to interrupt you, and I apologize to you,

655
00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 4: but it's interesting that because I didn't come to when

656
00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:11,040
Speaker 4: we were talking about his exes or what he was

657
00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,640
Speaker 4: doing with his life, because I didn't come with like

658
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:20,200
Speaker 4: defensiveness or negativity. There was just like a conversation, Yeah,

659
00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:24,480
Speaker 4: like you and I having a conversation versus like, you know,

660
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:27,400
Speaker 4: me being like competing with someone I don't even know.

661
00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:30,000
Speaker 5: Does that make sense? Yeah, I feel like that's what happens.

662
00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,840
Speaker 1: Or feeling threatened by someone who seems like they have

663
00:31:32,880 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: it all together. Stranger right, A stranger.

664
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,640
Speaker 5: Right correct, and we don't know anything.

665
00:31:37,840 --> 00:31:40,880
Speaker 4: Like they have their relationship, but their relationship is their relationship,

666
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 4: and my relationship with him is my relationship, and I

667
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:45,320
Speaker 4: just want to keep that.

668
00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 5: However, you know how it is.

669
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:50,720
Speaker 1: I have a question for you, Kelly, for people who

670
00:31:50,720 --> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 1: are listening, for folks who are listening and they are

671
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 1: just starting off, maybe they're they're in your boat, they're

672
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 1: they've just started to date someone new and they really

673
00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,920
Speaker 1: like them. How often do you text them? How often

674
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,680
Speaker 1: do you call them? How often do you like do

675
00:32:04,720 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: you wait before you return the text? Are you still

676
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:10,680
Speaker 1: playing little games or are you just being vulnerable and

677
00:32:10,880 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: open and sharing your feelings or are you withhold Like

678
00:32:14,400 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 1: I'm just curious. So that's always the dance. People don't

679
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,520
Speaker 1: know what to do and what the right thing is

680
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:21,120
Speaker 1: and what what would be a turn off, what would

681
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:22,520
Speaker 1: be a turn on? Are is that all in your

682
00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,800
Speaker 1: head or are you just going with your well?

683
00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:26,880
Speaker 4: I mean, of course it is like, like, you know,

684
00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:29,440
Speaker 4: I'm a single female. I've been single, you know, for

685
00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:35,160
Speaker 4: fifteen years, so I and you know, it's interesting because

686
00:32:35,160 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 4: most people are like, oh my god, you've been single

687
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 4: so long, You're just a player.

688
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 5: I'm like, no, no, no, no, not a player. That's one

689
00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:40,640
Speaker 5: thing I'm not.

690
00:32:42,160 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 4: I'm just very like whatever I feel like if I

691
00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,520
Speaker 4: feel like calling you, I feel like texting you. I

692
00:32:48,560 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 4: mean I was like thinking I was just because it

693
00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:51,640
Speaker 4: was so nice. I wanted to write him like a

694
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:54,000
Speaker 4: little thank you note, just thanking him for you know,

695
00:32:54,080 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 4: I'm just a very open and like, I'm very like loving,

696
00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 4: but that does not mean that I'm in love, do

697
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:05,360
Speaker 4: you know what I mean? Like I'm just a jet

698
00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:09,840
Speaker 4: I'm just a very love loving person. So I just,

699
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:12,840
Speaker 4: you know, I text him things but I'm also, you know,

700
00:33:14,120 --> 00:33:16,640
Speaker 4: dating other people, so it's not like he's the only

701
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 4: person that I'm dating, and I just want to be

702
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:25,920
Speaker 4: open to myself and to my new journey.

703
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:28,320
Speaker 3: Why he's not the only one you're dating? But why

704
00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,560
Speaker 3: is he the only one we're talking about? Kelly?

705
00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,560
Speaker 4: You know why you know what we're talking about him

706
00:33:32,600 --> 00:33:37,840
Speaker 4: because my executive producer set me up with her best

707
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 4: friend's brother.

708
00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:41,320
Speaker 3: Okay, but is this guy? Is he the Is he

709
00:33:41,400 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 3: a front runner? Though? Kelly? Is he a front runner

710
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 3: and all the guy?

711
00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:46,920
Speaker 4: That's my point, that's my point, Like he is someone

712
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 4: that I'm being introduced to by someone that I respect,

713
00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 4: and so I am definitely giving this person, you know,

714
00:33:57,240 --> 00:34:00,880
Speaker 4: like open eyes, like you know, let's see what happens.

715
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:03,680
Speaker 5: You know, It's not like I don't feel need to be.

716
00:34:03,640 --> 00:34:08,120
Speaker 4: Guarded because I am interested in him and I and

717
00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:12,760
Speaker 4: he's already been vetted, so there's a trust. Whereas everybody

718
00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:16,160
Speaker 4: else at I'm meeting, I don't necessarily know them or

719
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,080
Speaker 4: I know them kind of through someone.

720
00:34:19,440 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 3: You know.

721
00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:22,000
Speaker 4: The last guy that I was dating was younger, and

722
00:34:22,040 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 4: he was very sweet, but he was like love bombing

723
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 4: me and saying like after like the first date, he

724
00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:27,800
Speaker 4: was like, we're getting married.

725
00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:31,120
Speaker 5: You're my person, which was very.

726
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:35,920
Speaker 4: Kind and I appreciate that. But you know, his actions,

727
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:39,040
Speaker 4: you know, actions speak louder than words, and so you

728
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:40,920
Speaker 4: can just say how much you love me, but if

729
00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:43,320
Speaker 4: you're not like making plans, making you know, trying to

730
00:34:43,320 --> 00:34:48,120
Speaker 4: make situations, doing stuff that does not that does not

731
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 4: make me feel like you're in love with me and

732
00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,880
Speaker 4: you want to get married to me. So I'm like

733
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,920
Speaker 4: learning my lessons slowly, but surely I'm going to make

734
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 4: a lot of mistakes. You guys, I'm going to fall

735
00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:58,759
Speaker 4: through a lot of holes, so you might have to

736
00:34:58,760 --> 00:34:59,439
Speaker 4: pull me out.

737
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:03,160
Speaker 3: Sounds like you're doing great. I sounds like you're doing great, Kelly.

738
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 3: My only my last thing is how does he feel

739
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 3: about dating you? With you telling your entire dating story

740
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:12,640
Speaker 3: essentially to the public.

741
00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 5: So I asked him that, I said, what is it?

742
00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,719
Speaker 4: How do you feel about He was like that, He

743
00:35:17,800 --> 00:35:18,480
Speaker 4: was like, that's.

744
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:19,240
Speaker 5: I think that's amazing.

745
00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:20,640
Speaker 1: That's great.

746
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,520
Speaker 4: And he there's a lot of confidence too, And that's

747
00:35:23,600 --> 00:35:25,840
Speaker 4: another thing, Like he has a lot of confidence.

748
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:29,960
Speaker 5: You know, he's not intimidated by what I'm doing. He

749
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:33,640
Speaker 5: just is happy for me. And excited for me to you.

750
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:35,080
Speaker 4: Know, he just said to he said to me, it's like,

751
00:35:35,120 --> 00:35:37,400
Speaker 4: I'm just so happy to have met you, which is

752
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:37,960
Speaker 4: so nice.

753
00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,640
Speaker 1: That's a very sweet thing to say. And it sounds

754
00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:43,840
Speaker 1: like he followed up with actions exactly.

755
00:35:43,880 --> 00:35:47,000
Speaker 4: And actions speak louder than words. So to answer Amy,

756
00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:50,400
Speaker 4: what you're what your your question? Actions speak louder than words.

757
00:35:50,480 --> 00:35:53,120
Speaker 4: And I feel like if you like someone, you know,

758
00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,359
Speaker 4: I mean, I wouldn't be sending like heart emojis every

759
00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:59,759
Speaker 4: two seconds, but you know, thinking of you or you know,

Speaker 4: scare anyone, you know, like, oh my god, what if

764
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:12,719

Speaker 1: so happy for you, and I know everyone listening is

780
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 1: excited too, because it's one of those when you hear

781
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,680
Speaker 1: something good happen for someone else, someone who's been searching,

782
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:07,760
Speaker 1: someone who's been single deliberately for fifteen years, finding something

783
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,240
Speaker 1: that could lead to something, that there's that little spark,

784
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,680
Speaker 1: that little excite. It's it's hope for everyone else too.

788
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,399

789
00:37:23,480 --> 00:37:26,640
Speaker 4: kinetic and there's frenetic. And when like something good happens,

790
00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:28,560
Speaker 4: more good things aren't going to happen.
