This is 143 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,920 Speaker 1: two and a half months before the wedding. Prior to 144 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,320 Speaker 1: the situation of his dad being hospitalized, we talked about 145 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: how he hasn't proposed to mate. 146 00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 2: What why would you want that? 147 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 1: Well, he's already my fiance without proposing, as we had 148 00:06:23,400 --> 00:06:28,040 Speaker 1: a traditional engagement with families getting together. Wait, they're getting 149 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: married and he hasn't proposed. He already brought the ring 150 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,599 Speaker 1: and I know it because he updates me, and we 151 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,799 Speaker 1: even picked the ring out together. He has been sitting 152 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: on it for a few months and we had to 153 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: make our wedding ring soon. I wanted the engagement ring 154 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:43,240 Speaker 1: so that I can plan how my wedding ring would 155 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:45,680 Speaker 1: look like. At this point I knew he was just 156 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: stalling because he didn't know what to. 157 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 3: Do with it. 158 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: Or was awkward about proposing, et cetera introvert who only 159 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:55,120 Speaker 1: knows nothing, nothing but work. I told him it's not 160 00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 1: fair that he was not willing to do something as 161 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: simple as just kneeling down on one knee and proposing 162 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 1: with the ring. I would have loved if he had 163 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,680 Speaker 1: planned out something in a private place, et cetera. But 164 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 1: I had let go of all of my expectations and 165 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 1: just wanted him to go on one. 166 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,000 Speaker 3: Knee and propose. 167 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,239 Speaker 1: If you don't have any expectations for him, that's don't marry. 168 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,960 Speaker 2: What are we?

I was hurt and neglected and got super 186 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: angry at this point. I just felt like he was 187 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: never going to propose, and I was so absorbed in 188 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: that feeling. We eventually met to talk, but I was 189 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,480 Speaker 1: still angry at the whole situation, especially since I'm doing 190 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 1: all the wedding prep too, and I felt so underappreciated. 191 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,840 Speaker 1: He walked off mid conversation and went back to his house. 192 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:30,600 Speaker 1: I went over to his place and waited outside to 193 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: speak to him because I knew I made a mistake 194 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 1: by being so angry when we were trying to talk 195 00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:38,960 Speaker 1: things out. He refused to come out to meet and 196 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 1: talk to me, and I begged him over text for 197 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 1: so long. He eventually came, but at that point I 198 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,800 Speaker 1: was a mess. I went manic and started throwing my 199 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: phone on the floor. He called his aunt without consulting 200 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: me to come and mediate. I was super embarrassed at 201 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 1: the fact that we couldn't deal with things like an adult. 202 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: So you eventually asked us to sort things out. The 203 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 1: next day, and we did over phone call.

I was devastated. I asked him, as a 219 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 1: last resort, whether he needed some time to think about it, 220 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 1: and gave him two weeks no contact.

We've been together 227 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: so long that it's so hard to let it go. 228 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 3: It hurts so much.

I cut out the long sequences 458 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 6: of me walking, but I left in everything else. My 459 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:23,159 Speaker 6: teacher had a rubric of the types of descriptions and 460 00:22:23,240 --> 00:22:26,200 Speaker 6: numbers of things you needed, and taking any out would 461 00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:29,280 Speaker 6: lose me points. It was too dark out to film anymore, 462 00:22:29,440 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 6: so I stopped. The second part of the assignment was 463 00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,119 Speaker 6: to upload the video on the school website and post 464 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 6: comments back and forth, responding to several of your classmates videos. 465 00:22:38,840 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 6: One of my friends from class recognized the racist guy 466 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,359 Speaker 6: as someone who volunteers with the middle school soccer team. 467 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:49,400 Speaker 6: So the guy that was cat calling is teaching kids 468 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 6: how to play soccer.

I replied to say, does 473 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,360 Speaker 6: he teach the girls or the boys, and she replied 474 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:15,360 Speaker 6: back both.

A 477 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 6: guy in my class made a comment like the man 478 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,159 Speaker 6: yelling at his family is a police officer. He is 479 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:29,760 Speaker 6: always a very angry man. I replied back to say, 480 00:23:30,080 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 6: that is scary. The next day at school, my teacher 481 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 6: wanted to talk to me alone. She told me my 482 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:40,280 Speaker 6: video was inappropriate and I shouldn't have filmed the neighbors 483 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,000 Speaker 6: or the coach. I said that this assignment was literally 484 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,640 Speaker 6: to walk around a place you're familiar with and react 485 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 6: like you're having a conversation with a friend, and that 486 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:51,399 Speaker 6: is literally how it goes when I walk around my 487 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 6: house with my friends. My teacher said I was being 488 00:23:54,680 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 6: a belligerent on purpose, and I should have known that 489 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,720 Speaker 6: this stuff has to be dealt with delicately. I said, 490 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,800 Speaker 6: I just don't agree. It's just life, and there's no 491 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:05,000 Speaker 6: point of pretending that it's not happening. 492 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:08,520 Speaker 4: Facts, Opie, I like OPI is literally dropping these like 493 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:11,680 Speaker 4: philosophical gems, just yeah, nonchalantly. 494 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 6: She said she'd taken down the video and it was 495 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 6: the sort of thing that she'd be brought to the 496 00:24:16,200 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 6: authorities instead of posting for the whole class. I said, 497 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,320 Speaker 6: I didn't even know the guy in the car. And 498 00:24:22,320 --> 00:24:24,880 Speaker 6: who was I going to call about the cop?

She understood the assignment, Yes 507 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 6: she did. But there's an update, John Oh. I had 508 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,040 Speaker 6: a meeting this morning and I think it went well. 509 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:57,800 Speaker 6: I have a study hall now, so I have a 510 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 6: little more time to write an update. Last night, I 511 00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 6: did a bunch of prep before the meeting. I emailed 512 00:25:03,520 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 6: the video to the elementary school principal, guidance counselor, and 513 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:09,280 Speaker 6: a few parents I know with kids on the sports 514 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 6: team to say their coach had yelled sexually explicit and 515 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,120 Speaker 6: hateful things at me, a student in the school system. 516 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 6: I wanted to get out ahead and make sure the 517 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:20,919 Speaker 6: video was out there before the school might pressure me 518 00:25:21,040 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 6: to delete it. Then I backed up the video to 519 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,399 Speaker 6: multiple places. Then I asked a teacher I trust to 520 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:29,800 Speaker 6: sit in on this meeting and have it be recorded 521 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,080 Speaker 6: and sent to all participants afterwards. We scheduled it for 522 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 6: just before the school day started on zoom so I 523 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,680 Speaker 6: wouldn't miss any class. And then finally I decided to 524 00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:41,600 Speaker 6: write up a list of things I'd want discussed in 525 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:43,800 Speaker 6: the meeting and shared it with my favorite teacher in 526 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 6: advance so she can help me address the questions. 527 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,600 Speaker 2: Bro shout out to Opie. 528 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 6: Opie became really prepared, gosh darn, and for the actual meeting, 529 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 6: I decided I'd just go into it acting as if 530 00:25:56,520 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 6: they would obviously do the right thing and ask for help. 531 00:26:00,040 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 6: I was hoping having a teacher on my side and 532 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 6: the meeting on video would pressure them to help. I 533 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 6: thought if I approached it from and well, obviously you're 534 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,399 Speaker 6: going to take this seriously perspective, and had it on video, 535 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,919 Speaker 6: it would put them in a tough spot to have 536 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 6: to contradict me. So when I called in, everyone said 537 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 6: good morning, and the principal asked if I knew why 538 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 6: I had been called in this morning. I just started 539 00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:23,720 Speaker 6: out by saying, yes, I assume it's about the kid's coach. 540 00:26:24,040 --> 00:26:25,960 Speaker 6: Thank you so much for calling me to this meeting 541 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 6: this morning. I really appreciate how proactive you are about 542 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 6: addressing the sexual harassment from a staff member. I understand 543 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 6: this is a mandated reporting state, and I wanted to 544 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 6: ask if there's any information you will need to add 545 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:38,159 Speaker 6: to your report. 546 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:40,639 Speaker 2: That is how it's done. 547 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 6: Principle seemed kind of caught out and said a report 548 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 6: had not yet been filed. I said, well, as I 549 00:26:47,119 --> 00:26:49,760 Speaker 6: understand it, there is a forty eight hour timeframe to 550 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,679 Speaker 6: file report. I understand making you aware of this right 551 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:55,800 Speaker 6: before the weekend might have complicated things. Perhaps there was 552 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 6: a miscommunication about the severity of the events, but I 553 00:26:59,119 --> 00:27:02,119 Speaker 6: was approaching a car sexually harassed and threatened by a 554 00:27:02,160 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 6: man who works with other miners in the public school system. 555 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,080 Speaker 6: As soon as I said all that, the meeting tone 556 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 6: really changed. The meeting also had a school guidance counsel 557 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,560 Speaker 6: on it, and I could tell she understood how serious 558 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 6: what I was saying was, especially because I was politely 559 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,760 Speaker 6: calling out that they were already past the legal deadline 560 00:27:20,880 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 6: and that they should have filed the report already. She 561 00:27:23,440 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 6: actually took over and the principal didn't participate that much. 562 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,400 Speaker 6: I also tried to smooth things over somewhat by saying 563 00:27:29,440 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 6: I was sorry I brought this to their attention in 564 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:34,159 Speaker 6: a school project instead of asking for a meeting with 565 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 6: the principal directly, I should have reached out for help. 566 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:39,160 Speaker 6: So that's over. I'm still kind of freaking out how 567 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 6: big of a deal it turned out to be. Also, 568 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:43,440 Speaker 6: I want to say thanks to everyone who had suggestions 569 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 6: about how to approach this, like having an adult to 570 00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 6: back me up, getting the meeting on record, and knowing 571 00:27:48,440 --> 00:27:49,840 Speaker 6: about the mandatory reporting. 572 00:27:50,240 --> 00:27:53,679 Speaker 4: OPI is literally a hero, like OPI is a freaking lawyer, 573 00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 4: bro a lawyer, like just bowling out just this incredible, 574 00:27:58,720 --> 00:28:01,320 Speaker 4: wow wow wow wow. 575 00:28:01,440 --> 00:28:06,879 Speaker 2: But you know what us is incredible?
