Yeah, we'll get to it at 22 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: the end. Okay, but for now, let's get into this. 23 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,280 Speaker 1: One user, is it real love? Says my girlfriend is righteous, 24 00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 1: fair and caring to the extreme. She wouldn't hurt a 25 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: fly case in point, I once killed an aunt that 26 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:04,120 Speaker 1: was on the table, and she actually cried with real tears. Wow, 27 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 1: would you kill me if I was a work? Because 28 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:10,679 Speaker 1: she cares and because she can't see any being no 29 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: matter which one be in pain. 30 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 2: She should be a janist. 31 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: They don't kill bugs. 32 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: I love that, you know that. 33 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,840 Speaker 1: I was going to reference that too. Hey, look at us, 34 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: woke brothers over. 35 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,040 Speaker 2: The Yeah, yeah, there we go. All right, look up janis. 36 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:21,920 Speaker 1: They don't kill bugs. 37 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 2: I don't kill bugs. 38 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,360 Speaker 1: That's basically all I know. Now onto my issue. We're 39 00:01:25,360 --> 00:01:28,160 Speaker 1: in a long distance relationship and there's this guy at 40 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:31,839 Speaker 1: her work that is really desperately in love with her. 41 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,400 Speaker 1: In my opinion, I want to what are the receipts? 42 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,240 Speaker 1: Show me prove it. It started out as them becoming 43 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:40,080 Speaker 1: running partners while she was preparing for a marathon. They 44 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: run together three times a week before work, and long 45 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: runs at that sometimes between twenty and thirty kilometers. 46 00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:49,800 Speaker 2: That is a long run. 47 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,480 Speaker 1: That's a lot your heart right up endurance. Moving together 48 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 1: it sounds like other activities like that. 49 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: We're gonna get hold of judgment. All with whole judgment. 50 00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:02,160 Speaker 2: I have run with my female friends who have boyfriends 51 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 2: or significant others, but not for there to collality. 52 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: They all left them for Sam no sex. They talk 53 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: a lot during those and got to know each other. 54 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: They hang out at work, they eat together, and then 55 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:15,840 Speaker 1: they talk more. They are both kind of foodies. Actually, 56 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:18,119 Speaker 1: that's one of the special things between me and her. 57 00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,960 Speaker 1: So they exchanged things that they cooked, for example, jam 58 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: in exchange for honey, homemade bread, things like that. 59 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:26,360 Speaker 2: It's stacking. 60 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: Then sometimes they go to parties together, though as far 61 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: as I know, he's invited her a couple times and 62 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: she's always declined to go to a party with just 63 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: with him. 64 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:37,239 Speaker 2: Okay, so op he's going. 65 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,320 Speaker 1: It seems like she was not the one, you know, 66 00:02:39,400 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 1: accepting invice from him. 67 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 2: But OPI is going to these parties with her. When 68 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 2: she goes with the other, op. 69 00:02:44,800 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: Is far away and cannot attend. Right they're long distance 70 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 1: kind of makes everything ten times more. Who oh are they? 71 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 2: Do? 72 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: We know? 73 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 3: Twenty eight female and twenty eight. 74 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,440 Speaker 2: Male older for long distance. They usually want to hear 75 00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 2: long distance relationships. It's like college college. 76 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: So maybe mature enough to handle it. 77 00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe my best friend, one of my best friends 78 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 2: in a long distance relationship. 79 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,760 Speaker 1: But was there a hot guy making Brett and jam 80 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:10,119 Speaker 1: for them? 81 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 2: No? No, there wasn't. 82 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 1: That's the thing. 83 00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 2: They had a lot of rules. You have to have 84 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 2: a lot of rules to make your partner feel safe 85 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,080 Speaker 2: in a long distance relationship. 86 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:18,600 Speaker 1: That is true. 87 00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:21,120 Speaker 2: If you're in a monogamous relationship, that is correct. 88 00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: If they are going to a party together, it's because 89 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 1: it's a group thing and they belong to the same 90 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:28,520 Speaker 1: group of friends. Anyway, they go to parties, and I 91 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,640 Speaker 1: think that they hang out nicely there too. Lastly, although 92 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: she declines to go to a party one on one 93 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: with him, they do hang out together on Sunday afternoons 94 00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: and the like, which Sunday afternoons feels kind of like 95 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,280 Speaker 1: a it's like an intimate time. I don't know, you 96 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: know what I mean. 97 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 2: Like they're hanging out. They're all straight together. 98 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: They're both straight, and OPI says that this guy is 99 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: desperately love with her, and he looks almost as good 100 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: as a big protein. Not a chance, not a chance. 101 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: So I'm one hundred percent sure that this guy is 102 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: super into her. He does every thing he can to 103 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 1: hang out with her. Now onto her side, she wouldn't 104 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: hurt me. I was wondering for a while whether she 105 00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: was capable of cheating behind my back and not telling me. 106 00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:11,960 Speaker 1: In other words, her version of not hurting me. But 107 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,560 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure that's not an option because of these 108 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 1: three things. Number One, we see each other often every 109 00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: two weeks, and it's miraculously amazing every single time. Mind blowing. 110 00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:27,279 Speaker 1: Never seen such synergy in any couple. Everything, the conversations, 111 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: the love, the activities we do, the fun times, absolutely everything. 112 00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 1: Number Two, we talk on the phone all the time, 113 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:38,600 Speaker 1: every single evening. There's literally no available time in which 114 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: she could actually cheat on me unless they meet from 115 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 1: four am to six am or something ridiculous like that. 116 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 2: How about all the times that they're hanging out. 117 00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: That seems pretty doable. 118 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 2: I mean, what if she just doesn't go on one 119 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,479 Speaker 2: of those long runs. But she's like, oh, my heart 120 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 2: rate was up for two hours, but wait, your steps 121 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: weren't You didn't do any steps during that time? 122 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,360 Speaker 1: Yeah, my pedometers are. But look at my heart is 123 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: working great, you can see it's it's through the roof. Really, 124 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: but my pedometer is broken. Ye, yeah, says I can't 125 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 1: fix it. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. 126 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 2: Technical difficulties. I don't know, like I don't I don't 127 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,360 Speaker 2: necessarily think she's cheating, but you can find two minutes 128 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 2: to cheat if you wanted to. 129 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,520 Speaker 1: That's true. It only takes the hot guy two minutes 130 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,640 Speaker 1: in the rift and finally number three. She's pretty blunt. 131 00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: I don't think she would hide something like that. She's 132 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 1: not the type to be afraid to break up. I 133 00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: think if she felt like it, she would just do 134 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 1: it because it just wouldn't feel right. So, very quick 135 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:35,680 Speaker 1: pause right here. Do we think that the guy is 136 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: desperately in love with Opie's girlfriend, like Opie. 137 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 2: Says, I think so? Yeah, I think it's a very 138 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:44,360 Speaker 2: there's a very good chance that maybe not desperately in love, 139 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 2: but there is an attraction. Yes, and I think it 140 00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:51,920 Speaker 2: might be even a mutual attraction, but weighted more from 141 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 2: the guy to the girl. So I think like the 142 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 2: guy friend is more attracted to the girlfriend, and the 143 00:05:56,880 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: girlfriend might be a little bit attracted but mostly platonic. 144 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 1: If the girlfriend becomes single, the guy would want to 145 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: pursue her and date her. 146 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,919 Speaker 2: Yes, and I think if the girlfriend became single, she 147 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:08,279 Speaker 2: might even get a relationship with this guy. But I 148 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 2: don't think she's maybe allowing herself to think those thoughts. 149 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: She's telling herself I don't want this and I wouldn't 150 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: do that. Yeah, but if O becomes all. 151 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 2: Jealous, if there's different circumstances, maybe, if there's different circumstances, Yeah, 152 00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 2: And if op comes on jealous and is a little 153 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,600 Speaker 2: bit too like controlling, you know, might drive her into 154 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 2: the arms of another It just might from her lover 155 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 2: to another ouch. 156 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: Now, having said all this, I don't know what to do. 157 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 1: Just like I am one hundred percent sure that this 158 00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: guy would love to be in a couple with her. 159 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: I think she is also not indifferent and she would 160 00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: definitely go for it if. 161 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 2: She weren't with me. What did I say? What did 162 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:46,279 Speaker 2: I say? 163 00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 1: Pretty good? They're a pretty good match. Wow, he's very objective. 164 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 1: I mean, they run together. 165 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 2: It seems like they have bore in common than her 166 00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:57,920 Speaker 2: in op and they have more in common in the 167 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,400 Speaker 2: most important way possible, as in, they live in the 168 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 2: same area. 169 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 1: This is true. Now, Hey, maybe Opie isn't all that stuff, 170 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 1: but he doesn't have the chance to because they're they're 171 00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 1: long distance. But true, the likelihood of all of the 172 00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 1: Opie also sharing all of us? Is Opie really making 173 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 1: homemade bread? And you know, jam and I don't think 174 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: so unlikely. So they have similar backgrounds, more similar than 175 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: her and I. Okay, they work at the same place 176 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,480 Speaker 1: and like hanging out at the same spots. They speak 177 00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 1: the same language, whereas with me, she has to speak 178 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 1: in English, which is none of us are native in 179 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: That's an interesting point. 180 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 2: That's another one. 181 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: They both have to speak a non native language to 182 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:35,800 Speaker 1: each other to communicate. 183 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 2: That's like my friend, I introduced this girl. I was 184 00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 2: in a really. 185 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: Story time later storytime okay, time later to wait till 186 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: the end. 187 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 2: That's three story times. But it has to do with 188 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 2: a girl from the Netherlands that I met in Australia 189 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 2: that I introduced to her boyfriend, but then I realized 190 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: that I was into her after I broke up with 191 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:54,280 Speaker 2: my girlfriend. 192 00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,680 Speaker 1: What a title. I'm excited to hear that one. He's 193 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: a cool guy, young, smart, sports, he's got a lot 194 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,320 Speaker 1: going for him. It's a funny situation. On the one hand, 195 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 1: it's super awesome to have a girl that's so true 196 00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: to you. I'm really sure that she is not cheating, 197 00:08:09,040 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: that's not the problem here. On the other hand, I'm 198 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 1: also pretty dang sure that if we weren't together, she 199 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:17,480 Speaker 1: would be with that guy. It would just make absolutely 200 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 1: no sense to not be with him. So the question 201 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: is is this an okay situation? Could one see it 202 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 1: as her just keeping the guy as a backup in 203 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: case we break up? And is that an okay thing 204 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 1: to do? Is it an indication that I'm not showing 205 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 1: her enough proof of my affection and she believes there's 206 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: a possibility of a breakup. So we have to ask 207 00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: you all and ourselves the same question. Do we think 208 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: that the girlfriend is keeping this guy as a backup? 209 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 2: And also is that okay? I don't think she's intentionally 210 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: thinking of it as a backup. I've had, like in 211 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,720 Speaker 2: my life, I've had a lot of like female platonic 212 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: friends while I've been single, and it's been platonic, but 213 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 2: there's been like a little bit of attraction there, and 214 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 2: I think all so there's like almost always attraction in 215 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 2: one at least one direction with I feel close like 216 00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 2: opposite sex friends, right if they're both straight, right, would 217 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 2: you agree or now? 218 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 1: I have had so many I don't really have very 219 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 1: many now, but I have in the past had so 220 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:20,880 Speaker 1: many platonic relationships with women where literally nothing has happened 221 00:09:20,960 --> 00:09:22,439 Speaker 1: it wasn't like, oh, we hooked up once away. I 222 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:24,679 Speaker 1: was like, no, like, nothing has ever happened. 223 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 2: But would you say that's often? 224 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: I would not say that that's usual. 225 00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:31,840 Speaker 2: I think I'm for sure that happens and does happen, 226 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:34,839 Speaker 2: but I feel like it there are many cases. There 227 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 2: are many cases where there's attraction at least one direction. 228 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I would agree with that. It's oftentimes 229 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: it's somebody trying to even if they're again not even 230 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: cognitively aware that they're doing that, they're still doing it. 231 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 2: I think it just comes down to like, do you 232 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 2: have anything that you want? Do you want her behavior 233 00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:55,480 Speaker 2: to change anyway? And also is she down to change 234 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 2: any part of behavior because I don't really see anything 235 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: that she's doing wrong here. Yeah, I guess the question 236 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 2: is like, what is making you uncomfortable here? 237 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 1: Yeah? 238 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 2: Is it just that she's spending a lot of time 239 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,079 Speaker 2: with this guy? And so like would you ask like, hey, 240 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:08,840 Speaker 2: I want you to spend less time with this guy, 241 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 2: But would that make you feel good? Because then you're 242 00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 2: kind of being like a little bit controlling. 243 00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: It's it is a sticky spot to be in. 244 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 2: It's a sticky spot and there's also this idea of 245 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 2: like she might like, like you don't want there to 246 00:10:18,559 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 2: be physical cheating obviously, but like you don't also want 247 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 2: there to be emotional cheating. Yeah, one of my friends 248 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,839 Speaker 2: has like ground rules with his significant other where it's 249 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,000 Speaker 2: like I'm not spending time in like an opposite sex 250 00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 2: friends apartment alone, or like it's even like I'm not 251 00:10:34,800 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 2: working out with another girl at the gym alone. Like 252 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: like there's like they have all these rules just to 253 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:43,200 Speaker 2: make themselves feel comfortable with a long distance relationship, because 254 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 2: it is hard to feel comfortable and a long distance 255 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 2: relationship really, So I feel like maybe thinking what would 256 00:10:48,920 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 2: make you feel more comfortable and then asking for that, 257 00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 2: and you know, she could say no, you could talk 258 00:10:53,280 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 2: it out, you could realize maybe you're just being insecure, 259 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 2: like without merit. I don't know. I think I think 260 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 2: there's ways to progress towards something that may you feel 261 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 2: a little bit more safe. 262 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,720 Speaker 1: I think that's great advice, though, first to ask yourself 263 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:05,560 Speaker 1: what would make you more comfortable. You don't have to 264 00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: bring all of those things up front, but first first 265 00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 1: simply just ask yourself, yeah, and then you can see 266 00:11:09,840 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: if you want to ask her or not. 267 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, and sometimes it's like, Okay, what would make me 268 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 2: feel more comfortable? I want her to not see that 269 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 2: guy at all? Right, like like you've voiced that, and 270 00:11:18,920 --> 00:11:20,400 Speaker 2: then you hear that to here like Seff and like, 271 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 2: oh wait, that's sounds super controlling. Maybe I'm just being insecure. Yeah, right, 272 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 2: it could be like that, and then you find out 273 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:27,360 Speaker 2: that you're being here or you say something where it's 274 00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:29,440 Speaker 2: like I don't want her to be in his apartment 275 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 2: after like midnight, Right, that could be like a completely 276 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 2: Maybe that's like a little bit more reasonable, And that's 277 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 2: an okay thing to ask, you know. 278 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 1: It just depends think through it, see what your brain says, 279 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: and then bring it up if that feels right. 280 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:40,800 Speaker 2: Yeah. I would love to know what you guys think, 281 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 2: so put your answers in the comments. I could be 282 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 2: totally off base here. 283 00:11:43,559 --> 00:11:45,520 Speaker 1: Let us know what you think on the possibility that 284 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 1: she's afraid of a breakup and keeps him as a backup. Unfortunately, 285 00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,000 Speaker 1: I can't go much further with our current situation to 286 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: give her a promise of security. We're a long distance, 287 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,480 Speaker 1: so I wouldn't do anything crazy like proposing to her 288 00:11:57,559 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 1: when we've never lived together. Thank god. Oh beesh, I 289 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: guess the only reasonable thing I could do is quit 290 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: my job and move to her city. But I love 291 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:07,600 Speaker 1: my job so much and I'm doing so well, so 292 00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: that would be really hard for me to do that. No, 293 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 1: that for the eventual plan when we'd move in together, 294 00:12:13,880 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 1: we would go to a city where I can keep 295 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: working for the same company. There are many such cities, 296 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:22,120 Speaker 1: but sadly, the one that she lives in is not 297 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 1: one of those where we have in office. I almost 298 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 1: feel bad because they'd be such a great couple. Oh 299 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: my gosh, I feel like I should just make it 300 00:12:31,080 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: easy for her and let her be with that guy, 301 00:12:34,120 --> 00:12:36,320 Speaker 1: be done with the long distance, and let them be 302 00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 1: married in their city and have a happy life together. 303 00:12:39,679 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 2: Oh OHP, I feel like, OHP is like shooting himself 304 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 2: in the foot before he's even started the race. 305 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: Here totally with me. We have another one to two 306 00:12:49,040 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: years of long distance to get through, and then we'd 307 00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 1: probably have to both move to another city to be together. 308 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: We've talked about it. We're both okay with that plan. 309 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,559 Speaker 1: We both can't wait to move in together. But when 310 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,840 Speaker 1: you take a step back, it would just make so 311 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: much more sense for them to be together instead. I 312 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 1: guess sometimes love does strange things. I don't know if 313 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 1: I should bring this up to her at all. As 314 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: I said, nothing bad is actually happening at the moment, 315 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 1: I just want to avoid that in one year she 316 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,360 Speaker 1: suddenly has a change of heart and goes with him, 317 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: and we realize that we lost one year of our lives. 318 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,079 Speaker 2: The bad thing that is happening is like your mindset 319 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: on this, yeah, saying like, oh, she might be better 320 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:30,040 Speaker 2: off of this guy. That is a bad thing. That 321 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:33,200 Speaker 2: maybe means you need some communication. Maybe she thinks he's 322 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 2: but ugly, you know, well you do it no pee 323 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:35,480 Speaker 2: like that. 324 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:39,280 Speaker 1: Maybe she thinks the other guy's but oh no, oh 325 00:13:39,360 --> 00:13:40,480 Speaker 1: PE's sexy. 326 00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 3: We did kind of see a situation like that this weekend. 327 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 2: Oh with Christians stealing both of the girls that we 328 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 2: were trying to hit on. 329 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:51,200 Speaker 3: Well that too.

I don't know what to do. I'm happy 357 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: with her and she's happy with me. I just don't 358 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 1: want to wake up one day and Rea, it was 359 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 1: all the waste. I mean, in my prime years now, 360 00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:05,480 Speaker 1: I won't be in two to three years. He's that 361 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: Leo be in two to three years. He won't be 362 00:15:07,880 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 1: in your prime year. He's operating by Leo DiCaprio standard. 363 00:15:11,560 --> 00:15:15,320 Speaker 2: Oh okay, yeah, also men peek at like thirty five? 364 00:15:15,400 --> 00:15:16,880 Speaker 2: Really in the dating market for sure? 365 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:19,800 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yes, I see where you're going with that. Edit. 366 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:22,280 Speaker 1: Maybe a reasonable thing to do would be to talk 367 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,400 Speaker 1: to the guy. There aren't many opportunities for me to 368 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: do so, but he might be willing to at a 369 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 1: gathering that we go attend next weekend. Sorry, don't want 370 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:33,880 Speaker 1: to give away to many details. There is an updates, 371 00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: but let's ask that question. Should op approach the guy 372 00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 1: and talk to him about this? 373 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:41,560 Speaker 2: Not first? 374 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a pretty bad idea. 375 00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: I don't do you want to steal my girlfriend? Like, oh, 376 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 2: he's you can hear from how he's writing this that 377 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 2: he's down in the dumps. Yeah, he's like, I'm coming 378 00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 2: out of my prime years. This guy's like way better 379 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 2: for her than me. I'm going to be wasting a 380 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 2: year of her life. Like Ope, you're obviously thinking about 381 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 2: this a ton and that sucks. You need to and 382 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 2: you're going to continue to spiral and it's going to 383 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 2: damage your relationship. If you're having these feelings, you should 384 00:16:13,400 --> 00:16:14,400 Speaker 2: talk to her about it. 385 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:17,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, right, a million percent. And I think kind of 386 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: like what you were saying earlier, if you were like, hey, 387 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 1: here's like the line of thoughts that went through my head. 388 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 1: I was, you know, worried about this guy, and then 389 00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 1: I was like am I being insecure?

I didn't know what to think, 392 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 1: and I don't know what to think, but I just 393 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: wanted to voice that to you, voice these concerns, and 394 00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:36,320 Speaker 1: then from. 395 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,120 Speaker 2: That point you could be like, what can we do 396 00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 2: if if she actually cares about you and the relationship 397 00:16:40,840 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 2: and you care about her in the relationship, what can 398 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:44,960 Speaker 2: we do together to make sure we're both comfortable? 399 00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: Yes, one hundred percent, one thousand percent think OP should 400 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: not talk to the guy first.
