Okay, 35 00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: so Facebook dating, we don't hear a lot about that, 36 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:39,520 Speaker 2: but you you. 37 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 1: You met someone on there? 38 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 4: Yeah? 39 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 3: No, And and like actually went out on a date, 40 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 3: which is rare. Like meeting someone you know online and 41 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,960 Speaker 3: then actually having it results in a in a real 42 00:01:53,040 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 3: life bait feels uh, feels pretty rare. 43 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: So why is it rare? Do you not dat very much? 44 00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: Or why? Why is it rare for you to go 45 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: on a date? 46 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,200 Speaker 3: I mean, I feel like dating these days, especially online 47 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,920 Speaker 3: dating in general, is really hard to actually meet someone 48 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: who wants to meet in real life. I'm also a 49 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:17,280 Speaker 3: single mom, which complicates things, right, so it's like two strikes. 50 00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, that could be hard to coordinate. 51 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: All right, So you met this guy, you had a 52 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 2: great date, you felt like everything went really well, things 53 00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:26,799 Speaker 2: kind of came together, except you have not heard from 54 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 2: him since then, and that's bugging you, as it would anybody. 55 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it feels especially weird because I have to say 56 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 3: it was a pretty great date, Like, it wasn't just okay, 57 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 3: it was a really good date.

Look, it's it's complicated, sounds 141 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:54,400 Speaker 3: like it, you know. I feel like when you're a parent, 142 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:59,600 Speaker 3: they're certain saying that you have to do for your 143 00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 3: child and what would be. 144 00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:03,240 Speaker 1: For the issue. 145 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 5: Though, if your seventeen year old sleeps in your bed 146 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 5: every night, that's a big issue. 147 00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,400 Speaker 2: I don't immediately take this to like a criminal place 148 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:15,120 Speaker 2: or anything like that. It's in my mind's not well. 149 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:20,680 Speaker 2: I mean, we live in a Yeah, sadly, this is 150 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: the world we live in. But I guess I'm really 151 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 2: concerned about boundaries here, Like seventeen years old, there's quite 152 00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 2: the attachment. I mean, what happens I mean, what is 153 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 2: he a junior in high school? Senior in high school? No? Yeah, 154 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: I mean like what yeah, Like what happens when it's 155 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 2: time to go to college and move out and things 156 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 2: like that. 157 00:07:38,120 --> 00:07:42,240 Speaker 1: I mean, it seems like, you know, help me out here. 158 00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 3: The first of all, he's a he's a rising senior. 159 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 4: Second of all, look, I'm not I'm not trying to 160 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 4: get feisty here, but I'm very surprised that that's the reason, 161 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 4: especially because you're you're not a parent, and you don't 162 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 4: understand and there's a lot. 163 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 3: Of history and context here that I'm not going to 164 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:08,040 Speaker 3: go into about. 165 00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:11,440 Speaker 4: My son's needs and well. 166 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 3: That that would be a deal breaker.
