So you you guys dated through 42 00:01:50,080 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: the pandemic, everything went well, and you recently were having 43 00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:53,840 Speaker 1: a conversation about what I'm. 44 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 2: Sorry about moving in moving in together? Okay, because she 45 00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:58,960 Speaker 2: comes on like you know again, during the pandemic, she 46 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 2: was over on the weekends in stead the whole time. 47 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: When she gets off work, she would just come over. 48 00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 1: She doesn't live with me. 49 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 2: We both have had our own apartments for years, and 50 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 2: we're too like. 51 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: You know, independent. I guess to have thought about. 52 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:13,079 Speaker 2: It sooner, but so she brings it up, and I'm 53 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 2: thinking about it. I'm like, this is gonna be great. 54 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:19,399 Speaker 2: And then last Friday, Friday, we were on a date night, 55 00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 2: just going out for dinner, and if we were talking 56 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: about them moving in and just got brought it up. 57 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: I brought it up to see, like, you know, what 58 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: are you think? You're thinking this is a soon thing. 59 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,760 Speaker 2: And the more we talked, the more I found out 60 00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,160 Speaker 2: she's excited to move in because she thinks I'm going 61 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 2: to pay for everything because I already have my apartment. 62 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 2: She's thinking she gets to save money by not having hers, 63 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,680 Speaker 2: she gets to not pay the bills because I already 64 00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: pay you the utilities and everything, the Wi Fi. And 65 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 2: that's that kind of rabbit hole. That conversation went deeper, 66 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:54,600 Speaker 2: and I thought we had a good mutual thing going on, 67 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,440 Speaker 2: not that I took care of everything. 68 00:02:57,520 --> 00:02:59,919 Speaker 1: I don't make that kind of money. And I also, 69 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I can I guess. 70 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,720 Speaker 2: If that's the other relationship is supposed to go. 71 00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 1: But I don't want that kind of rule. 72 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: I don't know, so this is not part of the thought, David. 73 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,359 Speaker 1: Her thinking is that you already pay for your apartment. 74 00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: You already pay for the electricity and water and the 75 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 1: internet and whatever else. So like you've already paid for 76 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: all this, it's already you already can handle it. So 77 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: she's going to move in. So then her thing is, well, 78 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: I'm just I'm just here now, So it's not that 79 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 1: big of a deal, right because you already it's not 80 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: like you're upgrading the apartment to a more expensive apartment. 81 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 1: She's just like, hey, I'm just I'm just now here, 82 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: and so you're good already, so you'll be good now. Yes, yeah, 83 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: I'll take care of everything, apparently, as opposed to she 84 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: moves in. Now you split everything, and then you both 85 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: have extra money and then you both can do you know, 86 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: fun stuff because you have extra money now because there 87 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 1: are two people here as where before you were sort 88 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 1: of you know, living on your own, you know, existing 89 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: in separate places. So she honestly doesn't think she's going 90 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 1: to have to do anything. So what she thinks she's 91 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,360 Speaker 1: gonna do just have a much more money now. 92 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 2: She even talked about not keep saying at her job 93 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 2: like was part time. 94 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 1: That's where the conversation got really weird. Huh so you 95 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: and so you didn't say anything at that time. 96 00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: I was too scared too, because it came out of 97 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 2: it was a shock, and I was afraid to say 98 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:23,359 Speaker 2: something that would always in turn the conversation, which is 99 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: what my brain was trying to say. It is like, stop, 100 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 2: you need to tell her this is not what you 101 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 2: want immediately. But if I can we make this work, 102 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 2: would this be okay? 103 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,320 Speaker 1: I mean, I love her, you know, but I just don't. 104 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 1: I don't want to be the sole. 105 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,480 Speaker 2: Provider because that's a lot of weight on one person. 106 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: Let me ask you this, David, just bringing up another 107 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 1: angle here. If you were you guys have been dating 108 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: for a while, if you were engaged or married, would 109 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 1: it be different. Would you still expect her to contribute? 110 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: Probably not that. 111 00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: Because to be that far into our relationship, we would 112 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,360 Speaker 2: have already established who we. 113 00:04:58,120 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 1: Were and how we were as. 114 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 2: A couple, Like the power struggle. I hate to say, 115 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: you know, you don't mean like she likes this a 116 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 2: letter of then and I get through this, like all 117 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 2: that stuff would have really kind of weeded itself into 118 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 2: our relationship. 119 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,719 Speaker 1: Because that's what I wonder, is it started to interrupt you. 120 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: But in her mind, is it just like we're about 121 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: to this is the next step, and so I'm just 122 00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: going to be happy housewife and and you know that's 123 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 1: what she is, because this could be a bigger thing, 124 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, this, this could be a little more about 125 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,480 Speaker 1: what she aspires for her life to be. She doesn't 126 00:05:24,520 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 1: want to be a happy housewife. I'm so sorry. 127 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 2: I understand what you're saying. She does not want to 128 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: be a happy housewife. She just wants to live with 129 00:05:31,480 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 2: me and have her way. 130 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,880 Speaker 1: Well, then she should have no problem then paying for 131 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: half of remember or maybe not even half, you know, 132 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 1: maybe she pays half the rent, or maybe she pays 133 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 1: the utilities and you pay the rent. I don't know. 134 00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:42,800 Speaker 1: There's got to be some way to work this out 135 00:05:42,800 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: where you're both contributing to the household because you're obviously 136 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: not obviously not comfortable, nor are you willing to provide 137 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 1: to the point where she doesn't have a job anymore, 138 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 1: or to the point where she does work, but then 139 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 1: she's off. I don't know, shopping all day with the 140 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:57,800 Speaker 1: extra money or whatever. You know, you got to speak up, right, 141 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 1: You got to say sound of the kiky, I mean, 142 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:00,520 Speaker 1: I hate something. 143 00:06:00,520 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 3: But then if they're married, he doesn't mind paying all 144 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,320 Speaker 3: the bills. 145 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 1: And it sounds like that would be the next step 146 00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 1: for them. So that is an interesting sort of gray 147 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:08,760 Speaker 1: area practice right now. 148 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,720 Speaker 3: Right is practice. So let's practice what you're saying and 149 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,119 Speaker 3: me living up home life. 150 00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 1: I mean, if you miss me, I mean you did 151 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,440 Speaker 1: say that, Yeah, you did say that if you were 152 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 1: married that this wouldn't bother you. And you've been together 153 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: for years and you're moving in together. So I I 154 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: don't know if she's if you've ever said that to her, 155 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,520 Speaker 1: And maybe this is where she's getting that impression that 156 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 1: somehow now. But even if that were the case, I'm 157 00:06:32,560 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 1: not sure if I if I met a sugar Mama 158 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 1: and I were moving in with her and marrying her 159 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 1: or whatever, I'm not sure that I would brag to 160 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 1: her about all the things I'm not going to do 161 00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 1: when I move in, you know what I mean, Like 162 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: I can't wait for her to pay for all my 163 00:06:44,320 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: bills so I don't have to do a damn thing. Yeah, 164 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: she messed up here. I think you gotta say something 165 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:50,840 Speaker 1: to her, right, you got to say to her, I'm 166 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 1: not comfortable with this arrangement. We're not there yet. I 167 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,480 Speaker 1: need you to contribute. 168 00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 2: I know, I know, but it was it wasn't how 169 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 2: our conversations ever gone before. So it was definitely a 170 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 2: if I, if I switched on this path, it's not 171 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:06,159 Speaker 2: going to go well. And she thought town this week, 172 00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:08,679 Speaker 2: which is how I feel comfortable calling you guys already. 173 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: Now she's already taking vacations. It's related, well, you pay 174 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: the internet bills, so maybe she can't stream this. I 175 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know if you gave her the 176 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: password or not. I mean, yeah, I don't know. I 177 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:28,720 Speaker 1: don't think I would feel comfortable unless it were established 178 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 1: that this is what is happening, you know, like if 179 00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: if somebody moved it with me and we we'd have 180 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,760 Speaker 1: to have a conversation. And if that, if I were 181 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 1: say to say to that person, let me just I'm 182 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 1: going to pick everything up, like pay off your debt 183 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: or I don't know, go volunteer, you can, you can 184 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,000 Speaker 1: do something else now because we're in a position where 185 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: I don't need to. I don't need you to contribute 186 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: in that way. I can take care of you in 187 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: that way. Then that's one thing. But like if you 188 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: haven't established that, then I guess my assumption would be 189 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: that we're still you know, responsible for each other, because really, 190 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:59,360 Speaker 1: this is an opportunity for her to save money. Even then, 191 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, because like if you're moving 192 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: into you, if she's already living by herself and you 193 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: living by yourself, and she's already paying for all this 194 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: stuff anyway, she's still going to have extra money if 195 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 1: she moves in with you, because you know, you're at 196 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:15,360 Speaker 1: least paying for half for sure. Let me take some 197 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:16,560 Speaker 1: phone calls on this day, but I want to see 198 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,960 Speaker 1: if people have to say. But it sounds I don't know, 199 00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: I even unpopular opinion. 200 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, go ahead, I feel and I see this a 201 00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 4: lot on TikTok with these stay at home girlfriends and 202 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 4: even wives or girlfriends right because they're you know, boyfriends 203 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 4: can afford this lifestyle, which is so cool. Great, But 204 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 4: I have like this unpopular opinion that I think you 205 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 4: got to pull your weight in the household no matter 206 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 4: how much money your spouse makes. Like you got to 207 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 4: pay a bill, fill the fridge, like, do something. Maybe 208 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 4: are not paying the mortgage per se, but do something 209 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 4: unless you are with child and you can't work, right 210 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:46,560 Speaker 4: because you're a stay at home mom. 211 00:08:46,720 --> 00:08:48,079 Speaker 1: Understand that's your full time job. 212 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 4: You're the mom, right, or maybe you get injured or 213 00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 4: something right and you can't work that, I understand, then 214 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 4: I'm covering. You know, I expect hobby or whatever to 215 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 4: cover the bills at that point. But if I'm able 216 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,120 Speaker 4: to work, like that's an unpopular opinion, and know a 217 00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 4: lot of women like fight me on that, but that's 218 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:03,960 Speaker 4: how I get well. 219 00:09:04,040 --> 00:09:06,200 Speaker 1: And Paulina, this might sound bad, but if you're at 220 00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 1: home doing absolutely nothing, you know, and you're the stay 221 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: at home girlfriend, no kids, no job, you are paying 222 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: for it in other ways, Like well, I mean, come on, 223 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: you can't just be expected. Nothing's free in life, nothing's 224 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: fit to trade off, you know. I think if you're 225 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 1: doing absolutely nothing, then that person's probably taking advantage of 226 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:25,960 Speaker 1: you in another way. I mean, I don't think anyone's 227 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: out here just I mean, I guess there are some 228 00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:30,920 Speaker 1: people out here paying for companionship for for nothing, but 229 00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: I mean I don't I don't think anyone is just 230 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: out here doing nothing for no reason, if that makes sense. David, 231 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:37,679 Speaker 1: thank you, man. I have the radio one. Let's see 232 00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,040 Speaker 1: what people have to say. Okay, I mean I think 233 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 1: everything's a trade off, right. Why would I just pay 234 00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: for someone's life if I'm getting nothing out of it, 235 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: you know, And then why would you think Why would 236 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 1: you think that it's okay for me to pay for 237 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 1: your life for you to do nothing. You know, that's 238 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:52,360 Speaker 1: a character trade. 239 00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 4: In my opinion, I don't know why these women feel 240 00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 4: even comfortable to let a man do that, and to 241 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,719 Speaker 4: even have that, like financial security. I feel like you 242 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:00,520 Speaker 4: would have none if I let have you paid for 243 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 4: everything and I didn't work and I was a stay 244 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 4: at home girlfriend, totally my thumbs all day. 245 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,079 Speaker 5: I would not feel just secure in who I am. 246 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 5: You have to go to him for everything. I want 247 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:09,439 Speaker 5: to buy this, I want to do that, I want 248 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:10,920 Speaker 5: to do this, and like you wouldn't you know, and 249 00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 5: it would be up to him. Yeah, Hey, Mike, how 250 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:14,920 Speaker 5: you doing? 251 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:15,800 Speaker 1: Hey, what's up? 252 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 6: Hey, what's up? 253 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: Good morning? Mike. David, listen to me. You have one 254 00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:22,880 Speaker 1: more conversation. 255 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 7: With her, lay the line in this sand and you 256 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 7: say you're going to contribute, it would be one thing. 257 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,640 Speaker 1: Like my wife and I are first year of marriage. 258 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 7: You know, I paid for everything and join took her 259 00:10:33,520 --> 00:10:34,560 Speaker 7: salary and put it in the bank. 260 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:35,880 Speaker 6: Use it as a down pame of the house. 261 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,000 Speaker 1: That would be one thing. But doesn't sound like she's 262 00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: going to do that. 263 00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 7: I would have one more conversation with her, and if 264 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 7: she's not willing to comply or oblige, leave because I'm 265 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,160 Speaker 7: telling you, my wife and I have been married for 266 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 7: the better part of ten years and I was laid 267 00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:51,680 Speaker 7: off and she stepped up and brought the bacon home. 268 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 1: So what are you going to do? Mm? Yeah, yeah, 269 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:58,000 Speaker 1: thank you, Mike, appreciate it. Man, have a good day, man, yeah, Man, 270 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: make her comply, have a good dame. But I mean, 271 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: I don't know. 272 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, both parties need to work for a successful relationship. 273 00:11:08,840 --> 00:11:10,960 Speaker 1: In my opinion, I agree, and for a lot of 274 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 1: people it's a luxury. But for some people, that quote 275 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:18,240 Speaker 1: unquote work is raising the family with the kids, you know, 276 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,079 Speaker 1: taking care of the house, that kind of whether that's 277 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 1: male or female whatever. But then that makes sense to me, 278 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: right because childcare can be expensive. I think ideally people 279 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: want to be with their kids, especially when they're young. 280 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: I mean, so I get that, Like if I'm if 281 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: I'm working quote unquote financially for job, being paid whatever, 282 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,040 Speaker 1: and then you're at home, that's to me, that's equal 283 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: or probably not even equal. You're probably whoever's at home 284 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 1: is probably working harder fact frankly, But then there's a 285 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,320 Speaker 1: trade off there, right, But like I would have a 286 00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:52,160 Speaker 1: hard time doing supporting somebody who did absolutely nothing. If 287 00:11:52,200 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 1: I were so well off that I could support another 288 00:11:54,840 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: human being that didn't have to do a damn thing, 289 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,000 Speaker 1: then I would hope that person would at least pursue 290 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:03,400 Speaker 1: a passion like go volunteer at an animal shelter, go 291 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,920 Speaker 1: start a business that you never you know, take a risk, 292 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,920 Speaker 1: do something. Because if it were the other way around, 293 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 1: and somebody were paying for my life, I didn't have 294 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: to work, then I would hope that I could then 295 00:12:13,960 --> 00:12:15,440 Speaker 1: pursue a bunch of stuff that I want to do 296 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: that I can't do because I have to work for money, right, 297 00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: you know, something to I mean, that's a that's a 298 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: gift in a lot of ways, and I think it 299 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: says something about somebody who just wants to sit at 300 00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:29,760 Speaker 1: home and do nothing. Well you work, Mary Anne? Hi, Hey, 301 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: Hi guys, good moy. What do you want to say? 302 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 1: Love you to do it? Thank you? 303 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:35,920 Speaker 8: I want to say you got to kind of look 304 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,880 Speaker 8: at a relationship like you're living with a roommate and 305 00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 8: you would never expect your roommate to take for everything. 306 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 8: And if you treat each other as friends first. 307 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 9: Before spouses or boyfriend and girlfriends and just be respectful 308 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 9: of that. And like you said, Brett, I would never 309 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 9: want somebody to stay home and do nothing. And maybe 310 00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 9: that when they have children to get married, then obviously 311 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 9: the division of labor and finances is going to change. 312 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:07,720 Speaker 6: But they have to have that conversation. 313 00:13:07,880 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 9: And really all problems lead to lack of communication, so 314 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:13,240 Speaker 9: that's what needs to happen. 315 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, he'd better say something. Thank you, Marianne. Have a 316 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:16,440 Speaker 1: good day. 317 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 7: May. 318 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: Yeah. If he doesn't say anything, he's going to resent it. 319 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: He's going to resent it down the line every day 320 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 1: he gets up going to work. She's laying on the 321 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:25,440 Speaker 1: couch right Yeah. 322 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, what like for me and Jess, like we haven't 323 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 10: worked out. Like I pay out majority of the bills, 324 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 10: She pays the groceries and you know, stuff for Ashland 325 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 10: and the stuff that he needs, and then like if 326 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 10: we have house projects like stuff like that, she pays 327 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 10: for it as well, because obviously my money's going towards 328 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:43,720 Speaker 10: like the mortgage and everything else. 329 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:46,439 Speaker 1: So yeah, the conversation, Yeah, I've heard of people who 330 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,240 Speaker 1: like one, the woman in this case, in this couple, 331 00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: they don't have any kids, made a lot more money. 332 00:13:52,640 --> 00:13:55,200 Speaker 1: So she paid the day to day, she paid the mortgage, 333 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:58,520 Speaker 1: she paid food insurance, whatever, and then his money went 334 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: into an account that was essentially like their fun money, 335 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 1: so vacations, they had a boat, you know, all of 336 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. So it was like it didn't 337 00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:09,440 Speaker 1: make any sense for them to split hairs on day 338 00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,440 Speaker 1: to day because she was an attorney and made a 339 00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: lot more.

And then everybody 343 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: felt like they were contributing, you know, as opposed to 344 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 1: one person just not doing a damn thing.

It's time to get to work. 413 00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 1: I mean, if you're not doing anything in their relationship, 414 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,359 Speaker 1: If you right now are going, I don't do anything 415 00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,000 Speaker 1: in my relationship, you might want to be looking at 416 00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: about that pet funders or dot com whatever it is. 417 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:01,080 Speaker 1: You might be there
