<v Speaker 3>Not much this uff.

0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:14.040
<v Speaker 4>I called in because I recently reported my local vape

0:00:14.040 --> 0:00:19.000
<v Speaker 4>shop for selling weed products and I'm not allowed to

0:00:19.040 --> 0:00:22.000
<v Speaker 4>do that in Florida, and uh I feel guilty about it.

0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So why did you report this shop for selling weed?

0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:38.560
<v Speaker 4>I just so there's this thing called crime stoppers and

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:41.720
<v Speaker 4>they like offer a cash reward, you know, for that

0:00:41.800 --> 0:00:47.839
<v Speaker 4>kind of thing. And yeah, and it was just it

0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:50.640
<v Speaker 4>was like a really like like of the whim moment

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:56.440
<v Speaker 4>kind of decision, okay, and was just hasn't left my consciousness.

0:00:57.080 --> 0:00:59.440
<v Speaker 4>It didn't say like that there is a range.

0:00:59.640 --> 0:01:00.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't remember.

0:01:00.720 --> 0:01:03.720
<v Speaker 4>It was like fifty tore like like a few grands.

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:07.759
<v Speaker 4>It just depends on like the arrestmate and all that

0:01:07.840 --> 0:01:08.640
<v Speaker 4>and like the charges.

0:01:09.480 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So all right, so you reported the vape shop

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>for song weed and you say that it is weighing

0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 1>on your conscious. Yes, okay, tell me tell me about

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 1>the way in which it is weighing on your conscious

0:01:24.280 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Would have been your thoughts about this?

0:01:28.360 --> 0:01:28.640
<v Speaker 3>Well?

0:01:28.720 --> 0:01:33.800
<v Speaker 4>It I just you know, because like eventually I want

0:01:33.800 --> 0:01:36.480
<v Speaker 4>to own a vape shop, and I would just feel

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:39.680
<v Speaker 4>bad if someone did that to me, Okay, And so

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:41.520
<v Speaker 4>it's weighing on me like that, Like I feel bad

0:01:41.560 --> 0:01:43.880
<v Speaker 4>if they were you know, down the line Krmer got

0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:46.360
<v Speaker 4>me and I don't know. And these people they team

0:01:46.440 --> 0:01:48.160
<v Speaker 4>like nice people. Every time I go in there, they're

0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:51.520
<v Speaker 4>nice and everything and and and like I still go

0:01:51.680 --> 0:01:53.640
<v Speaker 4>in there because they have like the cheapest prices in town.

0:01:53.720 --> 0:01:55.640
<v Speaker 4>So like every time I go in there, I'm just

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 4>like damn, Like you know, I'd never reported you guys.

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm. I mean, like like, let's go deeper into

0:02:06.240 --> 0:02:10.160
<v Speaker 1>why you feel like you did it. Okay. So so

0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:17.519
<v Speaker 1>you said it was a spur of the moment decision. Yeah, okay,

0:02:17.800 --> 0:02:19.920
<v Speaker 1>walk walk walk me through it here. What what were

0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the emotions, what were the thoughts at the time, What

0:02:22.040 --> 0:02:23.200
<v Speaker 1>were the feelings at the time.

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:30.000
<v Speaker 4>My family is kind of like financially tight, and I

0:02:30.040 --> 0:02:32.480
<v Speaker 4>just I as a person, I mentally go through these

0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.360
<v Speaker 4>periods of like, oh, I need to start a business

0:02:35.360 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 4>and I need to make this money or I need

0:02:37.080 --> 0:02:38.360
<v Speaker 4>to go do this, and you know, I need to

0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:42.800
<v Speaker 4>get money this way, and and I don't I know,

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.080
<v Speaker 4>I knew that they sell these these products there. I

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:47.440
<v Speaker 4>see him in the shelf. I mean, they don't try

0:02:47.440 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 4>and hide it or anything. They're sitting right there, you know,

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 4>on the glass counter. And I was like, well, you know,

0:02:54.880 --> 0:02:58.480
<v Speaker 4>this is an actual crime and this, this wouldn't be

0:02:58.919 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 4>illegal for me to do. This isn't like I'm stealing

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:06.280
<v Speaker 4>anyone's property. You know, I'm reporting a crime. And I

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:08.280
<v Speaker 4>think just in the moment, it was like, yeah, you know,

0:03:08.280 --> 0:03:10.080
<v Speaker 4>I'm I'll you know, i'll be greedy, you know, report

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:13.000
<v Speaker 4>them for the money. And but since then, I just

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:16.519
<v Speaker 4>I just I just been thinking about it, like daily.

0:03:17.800 --> 0:03:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, so I know you've been thinking about it,

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:22.520
<v Speaker 1>but I really want to focus on the on the

0:03:22.560 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 1>on the why. So you're telling me that it was

0:03:24.560 --> 0:03:28.080
<v Speaker 1>uh are you saying that there was a motive, It

0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>was a decision motivated purely by the cash reward.

0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, okay, not.

0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:38.320
<v Speaker 1>Out of any sense of justice or maybe you were

0:03:38.400 --> 0:03:47.400
<v Speaker 1>bored or anything like that. No, No, okay, did you

0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:48.480
<v Speaker 1>get the cash reward?

0:03:50.440 --> 0:03:53.080
<v Speaker 4>Uh no, No, I haven't got a cash reward. I

0:03:53.120 --> 0:03:57.400
<v Speaker 4>haven't got I haven't received any update. It's been probably

0:03:57.440 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 4>about two weeks since I reported them.

0:04:01.560 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you this. It says here that you

0:04:03.240 --> 0:04:08.960
<v Speaker 1>tipped them off anonymously. Yes, how would you get a

0:04:09.000 --> 0:04:10.960
<v Speaker 1>reward if you tipped them off anonymously?

0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:12.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:04:13.080 --> 0:04:15.560
<v Speaker 4>That that that's kind of my question. And I read

0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:19.880
<v Speaker 4>on the website and from from from from what I received,

0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:23.359
<v Speaker 4>they'll like they'll get back to me because I have

0:04:23.480 --> 0:04:25.880
<v Speaker 4>like a little case number I D on their crime

0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:29.480
<v Speaker 4>Stoppers website, and they'll message me through there and then

0:04:29.640 --> 0:04:32.920
<v Speaker 4>they'll like have a check to pilot at a bank

0:04:32.960 --> 0:04:35.400
<v Speaker 4>somewhere and I'll be the only ones with the numbers

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:37.200
<v Speaker 4>to get the check or whatever like that.

0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh okay, So what were you planning on doing with

0:04:42.920 --> 0:04:45.400
<v Speaker 1>the money? Would you have gotten the reward?

0:04:47.720 --> 0:04:53.960
<v Speaker 4>Uh, well, we don't have a car for our family. Actually,

0:04:54.000 --> 0:04:56.279
<v Speaker 4>the only car that we had left broke down after

0:04:56.320 --> 0:04:58.840
<v Speaker 4>the reward, and I myself don't have a car. I'm

0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.280
<v Speaker 4>you know, I'm borrowing my dad's try uck. So I

0:05:01.320 --> 0:05:03.840
<v Speaker 4>would have put that. I would have put that towards

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:06.320
<v Speaker 4>paying off the rest of the car that just broke down.

0:05:06.920 --> 0:05:08.560
<v Speaker 4>But now that they broke down, I'm just going to

0:05:08.600 --> 0:05:12.840
<v Speaker 4>put it towards getting into a different vehicle. I mean,

0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:14.680
<v Speaker 4>if I even get it. But I mean I could

0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:16.479
<v Speaker 4>just get fifty dollars, So I mean damn, you know

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:19.280
<v Speaker 4>if I get fifty dollars, it's like, well, I mean,

0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:23.120
<v Speaker 4>you know, I don't.

0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:26.440
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:29.039
<v Speaker 4>It's just I just feel bad either way.

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So do you feel like there is anything that

0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:38.599
<v Speaker 1>you could do moving forward to rectify the situation and

0:05:38.640 --> 0:05:44.159
<v Speaker 1>clear your conscious?

0:05:47.080 --> 0:05:52.000
<v Speaker 4>Not not that I can think of, really, you know,

0:05:52.160 --> 0:05:54.239
<v Speaker 4>because I've already made the tip. You know, it's already,

0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:55.440
<v Speaker 4>it's ready in their database.

0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:56.719
<v Speaker 3>I don't.

0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:58.520
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. I can't go in and just say

0:05:58.839 --> 0:05:59.719
<v Speaker 4>oopsie daisies.

0:06:00.680 --> 0:06:03.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, so yes, I mean that is true. You

0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:06.279
<v Speaker 1>did make the tip, it is in their database, and

0:06:06.560 --> 0:06:13.599
<v Speaker 1>you know you cannot undo that. But cosmically, moving forward,

0:06:13.600 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 1>as you navigate through the universe, what do you think

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:21.479
<v Speaker 1>you could do? You know, knowing you cannot change the past,

0:06:21.560 --> 0:06:27.119
<v Speaker 1>but that the future is a big ball of mouldible clay,

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 1>what do you feel like you could do?

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 4>I could definitely not make decisions like that without fully

0:06:39.160 --> 0:06:45.599
<v Speaker 4>taking them through, especially not make decisions based off of greed,

0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 4>because I feel like that's what I feel most guilty

0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:52.039
<v Speaker 4>about is it was a very self is decision, like

0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:55.719
<v Speaker 4>based off of I mean, the decision solely off of

0:06:55.760 --> 0:06:57.600
<v Speaker 4>the cash reward, you know, but like you know, you

0:06:57.640 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 4>asked if I did it based off of justice, I

0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:02.000
<v Speaker 4>feel I wouldn't. Fee is bad. But I guess because

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.039
<v Speaker 4>I did it just because of the cash reward is

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:06.800
<v Speaker 4>why I feel mm hmm. That's why I wait for

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:07.359
<v Speaker 4>heavy on me.

0:07:08.960 --> 0:07:13.240
<v Speaker 1>Is this a pattern? Have you done things that you

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 1>believe our greedy in the past? Uh?

0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.640
<v Speaker 4>No, No, not not really. I'm generally, you know, very giving.

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:29.080
<v Speaker 4>This is this is a very an out of character thing. Yeah,

0:07:29.080 --> 0:07:34.640
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, it is. It's a very very strange mhm.

0:07:36.160 --> 0:07:38.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I'm I'm still thinking about the future. I'm

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.800
<v Speaker 1>still thinking about Okay, you're telling me what you cannot do.

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:43.440
<v Speaker 1>You're telling me, Okay, I've learned a lesson. I'm going

0:07:43.480 --> 0:07:48.400
<v Speaker 1>to think a little bit more about the intentions behind

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:52.560
<v Speaker 1>my actions, and then I think those are good things

0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:55.040
<v Speaker 1>to do, and then those are good things to do. Okay.

0:07:55.040 --> 0:07:57.600
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, overall, would you say that you learned

0:07:57.680 --> 0:08:02.160
<v Speaker 1>something from this experience that will positively dictate your actions

0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:02.880
<v Speaker 1>moving forward?

0:08:05.280 --> 0:08:09.160
<v Speaker 4>I think so. I don't think I I learned something,

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.080
<v Speaker 4>but I think I think what I already knew was

0:08:13.120 --> 0:08:17.160
<v Speaker 4>this kind of cemented even even further, you know, like

0:08:18.840 --> 0:08:22.000
<v Speaker 4>just don't don't make decisions based off of personal gain,

0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:25.680
<v Speaker 4>you know, because I've always known that, I wouldn't say

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:29.040
<v Speaker 4>I've necessarily learned it. But now I feel like every

0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:32.599
<v Speaker 4>time I make a decision, that's gonna pop in my

0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 4>head like why am I making this?

0:08:34.080 --> 0:08:34.240
<v Speaker 3>You know?

0:08:34.360 --> 0:08:41.160
<v Speaker 4>And my kind of my kind of deal mm hmmmm.

0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:43.400
<v Speaker 1>So you want to open up your own.

0:08:43.320 --> 0:08:47.080
<v Speaker 4>Vabe shop, right, yeah, eventually?

0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Are you gonna sell weed out of it?

0:08:52.760 --> 0:08:54.880
<v Speaker 4>If it's legal? I'm I'm not. I'm not gonna I'm

0:08:54.880 --> 0:08:57.080
<v Speaker 4>not gonna to break the law or anything like that

0:08:57.400 --> 0:08:59.680
<v Speaker 4>like that, Like you know, you can sell like the

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:02.559
<v Speaker 4>Delta eight products and the the A J C or

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:07.120
<v Speaker 4>whatever here, but but yeah, but I'm not gonna plan

0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:08.000
<v Speaker 4>on breaking the law.

0:09:08.440 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 1>Are you sure that that weed that that vape shop

0:09:10.440 --> 0:09:11.480
<v Speaker 1>wasn't selling Delta eight?

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:09:14.480 --> 0:09:19.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm positive there was a sticker. There is an

0:09:19.280 --> 0:09:21.880
<v Speaker 4>edible and and you can you can clearly tell, like

0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:24.720
<v Speaker 4>there's a sticker that has some like I think it

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:27.200
<v Speaker 4>was th O or a JAC one of the like

0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.400
<v Speaker 4>one of the legal ones, but it was over the

0:09:30.440 --> 0:09:34.400
<v Speaker 4>California symbol for like actual weed. And then like they're

0:09:34.440 --> 0:09:37.280
<v Speaker 4>vage products they sell, they say like Delta nine on them,

0:09:37.320 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 4>like the eighty three percent Delton nine or whatever, and

0:09:40.480 --> 0:09:42.160
<v Speaker 4>they can't have over point zero three.

0:09:43.400 --> 0:09:47.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, well, listen, Chris, you know, look, you cannot undo

0:09:47.679 --> 0:09:50.839
<v Speaker 1>your tip. Well, you cannot change the past. But it

0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:56.000
<v Speaker 1>sounds as though, uh, after reflecting on this, you you

0:09:56.080 --> 0:10:00.240
<v Speaker 1>intend to uh act a little bit more intentional in

0:10:00.240 --> 0:10:03.160
<v Speaker 1>the future. And uh that's really all you can do.

0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:07.760
<v Speaker 1>So I hope that you attempt to clear your conscious

0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:14.760
<v Speaker 1>by really diving into this this epiphany that you have

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:16.360
<v Speaker 1>had moving forward.

0:10:20.559 --> 0:10:24.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, that sounds good. You mean, like as far

0:10:24.840 --> 0:10:31.240
<v Speaker 4>as like like like whye, like like how it all happened?

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:33.439
<v Speaker 1>Well, no, as far as you're saying that you want

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 1>to act less out of greed and more out of

0:10:36.160 --> 0:10:37.160
<v Speaker 1>other things.

0:10:38.280 --> 0:10:40.280
<v Speaker 4>Oh right, I think.

0:10:40.160 --> 0:10:41.120
<v Speaker 1>Else you want to say to the people of the

0:10:41.160 --> 0:10:42.120
<v Speaker 1>computer before we go.

0:10:42.080 --> 0:10:46.880
<v Speaker 4>Chris, My my wife's listening in the next room. So

0:10:46.920 --> 0:10:49.880
<v Speaker 4>I just want to take shout out to you. I

0:10:50.000 --> 0:10:53.040
<v Speaker 4>love you and and thank you very much for your time.

0:10:53.600 --> 0:10:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Have a good rest of the day, Chris, you as well.

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:57.640
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:02.800
<v Speaker 2>Damn.

0:11:02.840 --> 0:11:04.560
<v Speaker 1>I wish you would have named the vape shop so

0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I could go there and buy some weed. That was

0:11:08.400 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>an arc. This is what the show is about about arcs,

0:11:13.080 --> 0:11:14.439
<v Speaker 1>kind of. I mean, it's about being a get go

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:15.679
<v Speaker 1>and talking to people on the phone. But there was

0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:23.680
<v Speaker 1>an arc. Okay. This guy Chris, you know, he is

0:11:23.720 --> 0:11:27.600
<v Speaker 1>down on his luck. Okay, he's trying to get some

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.760
<v Speaker 1>money for his family to do whatever thing. Who cares,

0:11:30.800 --> 0:11:33.920
<v Speaker 1>whatever he is, he's doing his things. And he had

0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:43.880
<v Speaker 1>this gut reaction to, oh, money, let me call up

0:11:44.080 --> 0:11:46.679
<v Speaker 1>the police and report the vape shop. It was his

0:11:46.720 --> 0:11:49.160
<v Speaker 1>gut reaction, okay, and he went with his gut. He

0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:58.679
<v Speaker 1>and five seconds after doing that, he realized that his gut,

0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:06.000
<v Speaker 1>his instinct, his default, was not properly guiding him in

0:12:06.040 --> 0:12:09.280
<v Speaker 1>the direction that he wanted to go as a human being.

0:12:11.080 --> 0:12:15.959
<v Speaker 1>And his arc is learning to slow down and look

0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:17.920
<v Speaker 1>at a bigger picture and be a little bit more

0:12:17.920 --> 0:12:26.280
<v Speaker 1>intentional and go, oh fuck, my default, my gut was

0:12:26.320 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 1>telling me to follow my greed, and it took me

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:37.719
<v Speaker 1>a mistake to figure that out. And now moving forward,

0:12:38.400 --> 0:12:41.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to be more intentional about my motivations behind

0:12:41.640 --> 0:12:46.640
<v Speaker 1>my actions. And that is his arc. And he had

0:12:46.679 --> 0:12:49.880
<v Speaker 1>to fuck up and be a little bit of an

0:12:49.960 --> 0:12:56.280
<v Speaker 1>arc to get there, but he's young, he's making mistakes

0:12:56.320 --> 0:13:04.520
<v Speaker 1>as we all are, and will hopefully follow the results

0:13:04.559 --> 0:13:09.600
<v Speaker 1>of that epiphany. Hello you pop, And I actually got

0:13:09.640 --> 0:13:14.600
<v Speaker 1>on what's up? Who is this?

0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:16.360
<v Speaker 3>This is jet?

0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Jet? Jet Jet Jet? What's what's up? Jet? Tell me?

0:13:23.960 --> 0:13:24.960
<v Speaker 1>What's going on with you?

0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:32.720
<v Speaker 2>It's really odd lyle. I'm not gonna lie to you.

0:13:35.679 --> 0:13:39.439
<v Speaker 2>So I'm I'm I'm a senior in high school, right,

0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:42.959
<v Speaker 2>just just to set the stage. The mood got it,

0:13:43.280 --> 0:13:47.320
<v Speaker 2>And we have a couple of new teachers and I'm

0:13:47.400 --> 0:13:50.120
<v Speaker 2>I like just turned eighteen this year. We have a

0:13:50.160 --> 0:13:54.680
<v Speaker 2>couple of new teachers who are younger women, right, and

0:13:56.200 --> 0:14:02.959
<v Speaker 2>one of them was erected for we're doing certain illicit

0:14:03.160 --> 0:14:09.880
<v Speaker 2>activities with a student m and now my name is

0:14:09.920 --> 0:14:12.520
<v Speaker 2>brought into it, so they think that I was the

0:14:12.559 --> 0:14:17.640
<v Speaker 2>one that that did it, but I I wasn't. And

0:14:17.679 --> 0:14:19.640
<v Speaker 2>now the college that I'm trying to get into is

0:14:19.680 --> 0:14:24.000
<v Speaker 2>hearing about that, and then they're like, Okay, we don't

0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:28.120
<v Speaker 2>know if we can expect you or like accept you,

0:14:29.160 --> 0:14:30.480
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know what to do about it.

0:14:32.000 --> 0:14:36.479
<v Speaker 1>So why why is your name being brought into the conversation?

0:14:36.680 --> 0:14:41.400
<v Speaker 1>What I mean, what reason or suspicion. Do people have

0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:44.840
<v Speaker 1>to bring you into this situation.

0:14:46.520 --> 0:14:50.360
<v Speaker 2>Because I used I'm I'm very horrible at math lyle.

0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:53.960
<v Speaker 2>So I used to go with one of the teachers

0:14:54.000 --> 0:14:58.320
<v Speaker 2>that was like in the in the rumor. I used

0:14:58.320 --> 0:15:00.520
<v Speaker 2>to go hang out after in her room after school

0:15:00.560 --> 0:15:02.440
<v Speaker 2>and she would help you with matt because I've always

0:15:02.480 --> 0:15:04.840
<v Speaker 2>I've always sucked at it, and it was nothing like

0:15:05.080 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 2>explicit like that like I'm engaged like no, but now

0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:13.560
<v Speaker 2>since I was close to that piece, yes, sir, I

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:15.400
<v Speaker 2>am engaged at eighteen.

0:15:17.520 --> 0:15:20.240
<v Speaker 1>Well but so jet okay, so let me ask you this. Okay,

0:15:20.320 --> 0:15:24.080
<v Speaker 1>So who is is there somebody there that is conducting

0:15:24.080 --> 0:15:28.680
<v Speaker 1>an investigation of some kind.

0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:31.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm not very sure of yet. I really have no idea.

0:15:31.680 --> 0:15:34.360
<v Speaker 2>I just know my college is now getting into it,

0:15:34.400 --> 0:15:36.200
<v Speaker 2>and it's like, okay, we don't know if we can

0:15:36.240 --> 0:15:38.600
<v Speaker 2>accept you. And I know, I don't know if she's

0:15:38.640 --> 0:15:42.280
<v Speaker 2>being like prosecutor prosecuted or if the people like the students'

0:15:42.280 --> 0:15:45.520
<v Speaker 2>parents that she slept with parents want to press charges

0:15:45.600 --> 0:15:45.760
<v Speaker 2>or not.

0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:52.040
<v Speaker 1>So but when you two, I mean, how is your

0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:56.040
<v Speaker 1>college finding out? Like I guess what I mean is, Okay,

0:15:56.080 --> 0:15:59.240
<v Speaker 1>you didn't do this, and you are trying to let

0:15:59.280 --> 0:16:03.200
<v Speaker 1>it be known that you were not involved in this activity,

0:16:03.720 --> 0:16:06.160
<v Speaker 1>and at what agency? What part is it? Are people

0:16:06.160 --> 0:16:09.680
<v Speaker 1>writing press stories like how is your college even finding

0:16:09.680 --> 0:16:10.280
<v Speaker 1>out about it?

0:16:11.240 --> 0:16:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it was a press story, but I

0:16:13.720 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 2>think whenever my college started looking I don't think it's

0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:19.880
<v Speaker 2>been leaked yet or anything like that, but I think

0:16:19.880 --> 0:16:23.200
<v Speaker 2>whenever my college started looking into me as like a recipient,

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:26.000
<v Speaker 2>they found out, because I mean, I'm gonna get I

0:16:26.040 --> 0:16:28.040
<v Speaker 2>guess that they asked the school or something. I really

0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.120
<v Speaker 2>don't know how I found out, That's just what I'm guessing.

0:16:30.840 --> 0:16:34.800
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, so who at the school that is in

0:16:34.920 --> 0:16:40.840
<v Speaker 1>charge of doing this investigation have you gone to and

0:16:40.920 --> 0:16:43.760
<v Speaker 1>explained that you were not involved in.

0:16:43.720 --> 0:16:48.800
<v Speaker 2>This' I've went to the I've went to the like

0:16:48.880 --> 0:16:50.960
<v Speaker 2>the principal. I have to go to this private school,

0:16:51.040 --> 0:16:54.160
<v Speaker 2>so I went to the headmaster and I've told them that,

0:16:54.240 --> 0:16:56.680
<v Speaker 2>and that like we don't know if you did or not.

0:16:56.880 --> 0:17:00.280
<v Speaker 2>That is a completely different rumor. And I'm like, okay, well,

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.440
<v Speaker 2>this is this is now interfering with my colleges, like

0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:05.480
<v Speaker 2>I don't I don't want this to mess up my college.

0:17:06.160 --> 0:17:09.200
<v Speaker 2>And they're like, well, we don't know about that? Yeah, yeah,

0:17:09.320 --> 0:17:11.800
<v Speaker 2>yeah I did. And they were like, we don't know

0:17:11.880 --> 0:17:14.680
<v Speaker 2>anything about that. We've had a lot of colleges coming

0:17:14.720 --> 0:17:17.840
<v Speaker 2>in asking about different students and asking about this situation.

0:17:19.200 --> 0:17:21.200
<v Speaker 2>So and they basically didn't give me a shit.

0:17:23.119 --> 0:17:24.680
<v Speaker 1>What is the college that you're trying to get into,

0:17:27.240 --> 0:17:31.960
<v Speaker 1>Georgia State, Georgia State? Did you did Georgia State contact

0:17:32.000 --> 0:17:34.200
<v Speaker 1>you directly? Or I mean, how did you even find

0:17:34.200 --> 0:17:35.760
<v Speaker 1>out that Georgia State knows about this?

0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:42.040
<v Speaker 2>I am supposed to go to college at Georgia State

0:17:42.119 --> 0:17:45.720
<v Speaker 2>for a scholarship, a football scholarship, So they contacted my coach.

0:17:45.800 --> 0:17:47.879
<v Speaker 2>My coach talked to me about it, and then whenever

0:17:47.960 --> 0:17:51.000
<v Speaker 2>I was working up like a contract for this, they

0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:52.800
<v Speaker 2>were like, there is something that we need to talk

0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:55.760
<v Speaker 2>to you about and then mentioned all the rumors.

0:17:56.240 --> 0:17:59.000
<v Speaker 1>M h okay, So the college did talk to you

0:17:59.000 --> 0:18:00.720
<v Speaker 1>about those rumors?

0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:04.960
<v Speaker 2>They did, but they haven't. They've they've said that it

0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:07.399
<v Speaker 2>might impact me getting accepted there because they don't like

0:18:07.440 --> 0:18:08.720
<v Speaker 2>I guess they don't want it to look back.

0:18:10.359 --> 0:18:12.440
<v Speaker 1>But did you tell what did what did they tell

0:18:12.480 --> 0:18:13.919
<v Speaker 1>you when you told them that you had nothing to

0:18:13.920 --> 0:18:14.760
<v Speaker 1>do with this situation?

0:18:16.960 --> 0:18:18.879
<v Speaker 2>They were like, well, we don't know if that's necessarily

0:18:18.880 --> 0:18:20.359
<v Speaker 2>true or not, because a lot of a lot of

0:18:20.400 --> 0:18:22.760
<v Speaker 2>students who have like said they didn't ended up like

0:18:23.560 --> 0:18:29.679
<v Speaker 2>being a part of it. But now it's like, okay,

0:18:29.920 --> 0:18:30.959
<v Speaker 2>they don't believe me or not.

0:18:31.720 --> 0:18:33.119
<v Speaker 6>M m.

0:18:36.480 --> 0:18:38.359
<v Speaker 1>Man jet, I'm sorry to hear that. Man, You're you're

0:18:38.359 --> 0:18:40.679
<v Speaker 1>getting involved in this mess that that you know you

0:18:40.760 --> 0:18:43.760
<v Speaker 1>really have, you know, don't deserve to get involved in

0:18:43.800 --> 0:18:54.360
<v Speaker 1>it all. Is there any I mean, dude, are there

0:18:54.400 --> 0:18:58.439
<v Speaker 1>any adults, Not that you're not in adults, but uh,

0:18:58.880 --> 0:19:04.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, people at the school, representatives, guidance, counselors, other

0:19:05.160 --> 0:19:09.320
<v Speaker 1>anyone that can help you in this situation because you

0:19:09.359 --> 0:19:11.040
<v Speaker 1>sound like you're doing this on your own, and you

0:19:11.080 --> 0:19:12.680
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be doing this on your own. You should be

0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:16.720
<v Speaker 1>working with a lawyer or whatever people there.

0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:20.880
<v Speaker 2>You know, I'm too broke to afford a lawyer. Law,

0:19:21.480 --> 0:19:25.800
<v Speaker 2>but I've asked. I've asked, like my we have we

0:19:25.880 --> 0:19:27.800
<v Speaker 2>have like a social worker that comes to our school

0:19:27.800 --> 0:19:30.439
<v Speaker 2>every so often, and I've asked her and she's like, okay,

0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.600
<v Speaker 2>we'll get this. Well, well we'll get an immediate investigation

0:19:33.680 --> 0:19:37.040
<v Speaker 2>on that. That was like three weeks ago, and I

0:19:37.080 --> 0:19:37.439
<v Speaker 2>haven't heard.

0:19:38.400 --> 0:19:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Did you follow up with her?

0:19:40.920 --> 0:19:42.720
<v Speaker 2>I tried to and I never got a call back.

0:19:44.840 --> 0:19:47.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I mean, this is so bizarre to me because

0:19:47.200 --> 0:19:50.320
<v Speaker 1>this college is not going off of any kind of

0:19:50.320 --> 0:19:53.720
<v Speaker 1>official investigation being taken place like there has been.

0:19:53.840 --> 0:19:54.040
<v Speaker 7>No.

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:54.760
<v Speaker 5>I don't know.

0:19:54.920 --> 0:19:57.320
<v Speaker 2>That's that's the whole thing. Le I don't know if

0:19:57.320 --> 0:20:00.760
<v Speaker 2>there's an investigation or not. They might that I don't

0:20:00.760 --> 0:20:04.040
<v Speaker 2>know about, but as far as I know, they're.

0:20:03.800 --> 0:20:07.640
<v Speaker 1>Not fucking bizarre, man, fucking bizarre?

0:20:09.200 --> 0:20:10.199
<v Speaker 3>What I mean?

0:20:10.240 --> 0:20:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean every I mean, dude, Well, here's the thing, okay,

0:20:12.200 --> 0:20:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you've told me, right, You've told me over

0:20:14.119 --> 0:20:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the over this call of like what three or four

0:20:17.400 --> 0:20:19.399
<v Speaker 1>separate people in the school. You've told me about, a

0:20:19.400 --> 0:20:21.879
<v Speaker 1>social worker, you're told me about a coach, a headmaster,

0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:25.560
<v Speaker 1>and and none of them have tried to help you

0:20:25.600 --> 0:20:25.879
<v Speaker 1>with this.

0:20:27.520 --> 0:20:28.280
<v Speaker 3>My coach has.

0:20:28.200 --> 0:20:31.199
<v Speaker 2>Been trying to. He's been like batching for me or

0:20:31.400 --> 0:20:33.440
<v Speaker 2>vouching for me every chance he gets, but there's only

0:20:33.480 --> 0:20:34.360
<v Speaker 2>so much he can do.

0:20:35.920 --> 0:20:40.399
<v Speaker 1>Muh. Have you talked to your parents about this?

0:20:42.560 --> 0:20:44.119
<v Speaker 3>No? I have not, not yet.

0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that's something I should probably do.

0:20:47.720 --> 0:20:49.119
<v Speaker 1>I think you should try to get their help. I

0:20:49.119 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 1>mean listen, I have absolutely no idea what you should

0:20:51.320 --> 0:20:54.560
<v Speaker 1>do in the situation, because I'm I feel as well.

0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:58.440
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it's it's annoying because this is something that

0:20:59.160 --> 0:21:05.160
<v Speaker 1>it warnts an official investigation of some kind for you

0:21:05.240 --> 0:21:10.119
<v Speaker 1>to explain, and not for a college to fucking hear

0:21:10.440 --> 0:21:12.879
<v Speaker 1>A that's so, that's so fucking dumb.

0:21:16.359 --> 0:21:17.119
<v Speaker 2>I agree with you.

0:21:22.440 --> 0:21:25.400
<v Speaker 1>So a college. So the college heard the rumor from

0:21:25.440 --> 0:21:29.040
<v Speaker 1>your coach, and now the admissions. How does that even

0:21:29.080 --> 0:21:33.240
<v Speaker 1>fucking work? When does a college even do that? Does

0:21:33.280 --> 0:21:34.960
<v Speaker 1>none of that even make any sense to me? Maybe

0:21:34.960 --> 0:21:37.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm dumb and I'm out of touch with like the

0:21:37.280 --> 0:21:40.880
<v Speaker 1>college to high school relations, but that doesn't make any

0:21:40.880 --> 0:21:42.679
<v Speaker 1>fucking sense to me that they would have heard about this.

0:21:44.880 --> 0:21:46.560
<v Speaker 2>I really, I don't know.

0:21:46.640 --> 0:21:48.679
<v Speaker 5>I just know they found out about it somehow, And

0:21:48.680 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 5>they've had meetings with my coach about me before, and

0:21:51.760 --> 0:21:54.040
<v Speaker 5>they've had meetings with me about like with my coach

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:58.080
<v Speaker 5>there about it before. So I'm guessing that they asked

0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:00.679
<v Speaker 5>what the situation of the school was, how like I

0:22:00.800 --> 0:22:03.359
<v Speaker 5>was doing in school, like social wise, all that shit,

0:22:03.480 --> 0:22:05.080
<v Speaker 5>to know if I'm gonna be good at their.

0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:09.760
<v Speaker 2>College or something like that. And I guess that came up.

0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:13.879
<v Speaker 2>I really don't know, Jak. I'm I'm I'm in the

0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:16.040
<v Speaker 2>blind spot as much as you m.

0:22:17.640 --> 0:22:19.320
<v Speaker 1>Jet. I think you should talk to your parents about this.

0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:24.600
<v Speaker 1>I think you should follow up with that fucking social

0:22:24.640 --> 0:22:30.639
<v Speaker 1>worker who hasn't done anything. I think you should, at

0:22:30.640 --> 0:22:32.679
<v Speaker 1>the very least get a consult I don't know how

0:22:32.720 --> 0:22:34.120
<v Speaker 1>much it costs, and I don't know if you can

0:22:34.160 --> 0:22:36.480
<v Speaker 1>find somebody who's willing to at least give you a

0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:41.320
<v Speaker 1>free consultation. But I would talk to a lawyer, and

0:22:41.359 --> 0:22:43.239
<v Speaker 1>that that is really all I've got for you. I'm

0:22:43.280 --> 0:22:45.600
<v Speaker 1>sorry that you're in this situation. This is totally stupid.

0:22:48.680 --> 0:22:55.159
<v Speaker 2>Damn. I do appreciate it though, while a lot thank you.

0:22:55.280 --> 0:22:57.520
<v Speaker 2>This is like my fourth trying time trying to get

0:22:57.520 --> 0:22:58.440
<v Speaker 2>in here on this too.

0:22:59.720 --> 0:23:02.199
<v Speaker 1>Is there any other aspect of this situation or are

0:23:02.320 --> 0:23:04.120
<v Speaker 1>just anything in general that you want to talk about

0:23:04.160 --> 0:23:07.160
<v Speaker 1>before we go or say to the people of the computer.

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:15.440
<v Speaker 2>Mean, uh, I don't know, No, I'm scared just gonna

0:23:15.440 --> 0:23:17.920
<v Speaker 2>affect my relationship. That's another thing.

0:23:18.560 --> 0:23:19.640
<v Speaker 1>What with your fiance?

0:23:21.320 --> 0:23:24.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like, because I mean my fiance, I love her

0:23:24.800 --> 0:23:26.840
<v Speaker 2>at death. Shout out to my fiance if she watching

0:23:26.920 --> 0:23:31.400
<v Speaker 2>the stream. But she she's got a lot, she's got

0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:35.760
<v Speaker 2>a bunch of anxiety problems, and like if she hears

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:37.840
<v Speaker 2>a rumor like that or some shit like that, then

0:23:37.880 --> 0:23:42.000
<v Speaker 2>she'll immediately think it's true just because of like past trauma.

0:23:48.200 --> 0:23:52.720
<v Speaker 1>Okay, is there any foundation of trust between you two?

0:23:56.320 --> 0:23:58.239
<v Speaker 2>I trust her, she doesn't trust me.

0:24:01.040 --> 0:24:02.159
<v Speaker 1>Do you see a problem with that?

0:24:04.480 --> 0:24:04.920
<v Speaker 8>I do?

0:24:05.200 --> 0:24:08.040
<v Speaker 2>But now now, fuck, I can't believe I'm saying it's

0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:12.720
<v Speaker 2>on your stream first, but now now it's like, I

0:24:12.760 --> 0:24:13.760
<v Speaker 2>feel like I'm in too deep.

0:24:16.520 --> 0:24:18.440
<v Speaker 1>You're not in too deep at all. You're eighteen years old,

0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:20.320
<v Speaker 1>You're you're very much in the shadow.

0:24:20.520 --> 0:24:22.760
<v Speaker 2>But but I'm I'm.

0:24:22.600 --> 0:24:29.840
<v Speaker 1>In Okay, Jet, how are you feeling in life in general?

0:24:29.960 --> 0:24:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's let's talk about this for a second.

0:24:37.040 --> 0:24:37.320
<v Speaker 3>I don't.

0:24:37.359 --> 0:24:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't really know how I I I everything's been

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:45.680
<v Speaker 2>pissing me off lately. I'm exhausted. I don't know what

0:24:45.720 --> 0:24:47.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna do once I graduate.

0:24:47.119 --> 0:24:50.439
<v Speaker 1>Bro, what are you trying to go to college for?

0:24:52.680 --> 0:24:55.280
<v Speaker 2>I want to. I want to go there and get

0:24:55.280 --> 0:24:58.240
<v Speaker 2>into computer engineering and then maybe try and get like

0:24:58.280 --> 0:25:00.000
<v Speaker 2>a sports scholarship there or something.

0:25:01.000 --> 0:25:02.160
<v Speaker 4>Mm hmmm mm hmm.

0:25:05.359 --> 0:25:07.720
<v Speaker 1>Is Georgia State. That's the place that you were going

0:25:07.760 --> 0:25:11.800
<v Speaker 1>to try to go to. Yeah, is that your only

0:25:11.840 --> 0:25:13.520
<v Speaker 1>option or were there other places that you wanted to

0:25:13.560 --> 0:25:13.800
<v Speaker 1>go to?

0:25:15.920 --> 0:25:17.240
<v Speaker 2>That was the only one And that was the one

0:25:17.280 --> 0:25:19.240
<v Speaker 2>I wanted to go to too, so it worked out.

0:25:19.960 --> 0:25:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmmm, why are you getting engaged? And and I'm

0:25:27.280 --> 0:25:28.720
<v Speaker 1>not here at a tell me what you should have

0:25:28.720 --> 0:25:33.760
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't do, but I'm curious as to just just why

0:25:33.800 --> 0:25:34.720
<v Speaker 1>you're doing what you're doing.

0:25:37.000 --> 0:25:40.200
<v Speaker 2>This girl came into my life at a really really

0:25:40.200 --> 0:25:42.120
<v Speaker 2>fucked up time, Like where I was, I was going

0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:46.880
<v Speaker 2>through the ships, and we she she had went through

0:25:46.880 --> 0:25:49.200
<v Speaker 2>the ships the same as I. We both hated life

0:25:49.200 --> 0:25:51.800
<v Speaker 2>for a long as time, and we just kind of

0:25:51.800 --> 0:25:54.600
<v Speaker 2>connected like it was like some Hotel Transylvania shit like

0:25:56.160 --> 0:25:58.199
<v Speaker 2>like it was like some zing type ship and we

0:25:58.240 --> 0:26:02.360
<v Speaker 2>had the same interest and I was a positive impact

0:26:02.359 --> 0:26:04.320
<v Speaker 2>on her for a while. She was a positive impact

0:26:04.359 --> 0:26:08.760
<v Speaker 2>on me for a while. We've been dating like three

0:26:08.840 --> 0:26:12.200
<v Speaker 2>years now. I really should have waited for the engagement,

0:26:12.320 --> 0:26:17.000
<v Speaker 2>but we were at a City More concert and it

0:26:17.080 --> 0:26:19.520
<v Speaker 2>was just a perfect time and she wanted it and

0:26:19.560 --> 0:26:20.560
<v Speaker 2>so did I at the time.

0:26:24.480 --> 0:26:26.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, it's.

0:26:27.680 --> 0:26:31.359
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, What are you feeling right now When you say damn?

0:26:33.359 --> 0:26:35.160
<v Speaker 2>I mean now that I say it out loud, it's

0:26:35.200 --> 0:26:38.919
<v Speaker 2>like I've rushed into so much shit without being like

0:26:41.840 --> 0:26:44.040
<v Speaker 2>I don't, like, without even being one hundred percent sure

0:26:44.040 --> 0:26:47.639
<v Speaker 2>of it whatsoever. Like I completely acted on impulse, but

0:26:47.720 --> 0:26:50.520
<v Speaker 2>now I feel like I'm in too deep, so I

0:26:50.560 --> 0:26:53.000
<v Speaker 2>can't like fix it.

0:26:53.760 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 1>Why do you feel like you're in too deep?

0:26:58.000 --> 0:27:02.119
<v Speaker 2>This girl has like developed her entire life around me,

0:27:02.640 --> 0:27:05.720
<v Speaker 2>like like it's if she doesn't talk to me. It's

0:27:06.240 --> 0:27:11.679
<v Speaker 2>very very unhealthy obsession. And she makes me super fucking happy,

0:27:11.680 --> 0:27:13.320
<v Speaker 2>and I'm the happiest man in the world when I'm

0:27:13.359 --> 0:27:15.800
<v Speaker 2>around her, Like I feel like I'm walking on air.

0:27:16.560 --> 0:27:20.840
<v Speaker 2>But I'm scared, Like like I went on vacation with

0:27:20.880 --> 0:27:22.960
<v Speaker 2>my family a couple months back, and I didn't talk

0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:24.280
<v Speaker 2>to her that much because I was hanging out with

0:27:24.280 --> 0:27:28.200
<v Speaker 2>my family and she had like mental breakdown after mental breakdown,

0:27:28.240 --> 0:27:29.760
<v Speaker 2>and I didn't know how to deal with it. So

0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:33.199
<v Speaker 2>I'm sitting here trying to say I'm sorry, but I

0:27:33.280 --> 0:27:34.679
<v Speaker 2>have nothing to be sorry about.

0:27:44.320 --> 0:27:47.000
<v Speaker 1>Has it been like that for the whole three years

0:27:47.000 --> 0:27:47.920
<v Speaker 1>that you guys have been together.

0:27:49.960 --> 0:27:51.760
<v Speaker 2>No, it only started like this year.

0:27:52.640 --> 0:27:54.240
<v Speaker 1>Did it start when you guys got engaged?

0:27:56.920 --> 0:27:59.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, damn.

0:28:01.400 --> 0:28:02.880
<v Speaker 1>Tell me about her? What else does she have going

0:28:02.920 --> 0:28:04.480
<v Speaker 1>on in her life?

0:28:07.160 --> 0:28:09.919
<v Speaker 2>She graduated high school, is trying to move out of

0:28:09.920 --> 0:28:11.200
<v Speaker 2>her parents' house.

0:28:12.720 --> 0:28:13.080
<v Speaker 3>We live.

0:28:13.200 --> 0:28:15.680
<v Speaker 2>We lived into different states, so she has to come

0:28:15.760 --> 0:28:22.240
<v Speaker 2>up here. Sometimes. She's trying to go to college for

0:28:22.359 --> 0:28:25.600
<v Speaker 2>cosmetology in Florida, and I'm trying to go to college

0:28:25.600 --> 0:28:29.399
<v Speaker 2>in Georgia. So it's like, Okay, No, no student like

0:28:29.520 --> 0:28:31.760
<v Speaker 2>or no person likes having like a significant other at

0:28:31.760 --> 0:28:32.560
<v Speaker 2>a different college.

0:28:33.200 --> 0:28:42.320
<v Speaker 1>Of course, of course. Oh man, I huh, jentlemen. I

0:28:42.800 --> 0:28:44.960
<v Speaker 1>don't like telling people what to do because I don't

0:28:44.960 --> 0:28:47.680
<v Speaker 1>think that there is a one size fits all path

0:28:47.760 --> 0:28:58.640
<v Speaker 1>to happiness in life. But I think that you should

0:28:58.680 --> 0:29:04.000
<v Speaker 1>not be scared. I get why you're scared. I get

0:29:04.120 --> 0:29:09.480
<v Speaker 1>why you feel like you're in too deep. But a person,

0:29:10.920 --> 0:29:15.920
<v Speaker 1>even if they are quote obsessed with you, they cannot

0:29:15.960 --> 0:29:22.000
<v Speaker 1>possess you, and you, as a person of your own agency,

0:29:23.040 --> 0:29:27.960
<v Speaker 1>have the right at any given time, and right now

0:29:28.040 --> 0:29:30.400
<v Speaker 1>is a great time for you to do what I'm

0:29:30.560 --> 0:29:34.200
<v Speaker 1>about to say, because you're eighteen, and you're graduating from

0:29:34.280 --> 0:29:37.720
<v Speaker 1>high school, and you're entering a new era of your life.

0:29:38.880 --> 0:29:42.479
<v Speaker 1>You have the agency at any given time. Nobody can

0:29:42.480 --> 0:29:45.080
<v Speaker 1>ever take this away from you. You have the agency

0:29:45.120 --> 0:29:50.280
<v Speaker 1>at any given time to reevaluate your life, to evaluate

0:29:51.720 --> 0:29:59.640
<v Speaker 1>what is important to you and to potentially change courses,

0:30:00.640 --> 0:30:07.200
<v Speaker 1>and to act intentionally towards what you believe is best

0:30:07.240 --> 0:30:11.440
<v Speaker 1>for you and guides you towards what you think is

0:30:11.560 --> 0:30:17.440
<v Speaker 1>important to you in your life. And nobody can possess

0:30:17.480 --> 0:30:22.680
<v Speaker 1>you or take your ability to do that away from you.

0:30:23.560 --> 0:30:29.800
<v Speaker 1>So you are not in too deep. You can make

0:30:29.840 --> 0:30:40.560
<v Speaker 1>your own decisions about what to do with your life.

0:30:40.920 --> 0:30:43.320
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I know, I know I want to do

0:30:43.400 --> 0:30:45.680
<v Speaker 2>it or not I want to do it. A part

0:30:45.680 --> 0:30:50.520
<v Speaker 2>of me wants to do it, and I know that

0:30:50.600 --> 0:30:52.480
<v Speaker 2>I probably need to do it for my own mental

0:30:52.480 --> 0:30:57.000
<v Speaker 2>health and for her mental health. But it's.

0:30:58.960 --> 0:30:59.160
<v Speaker 6>Now.

0:30:59.160 --> 0:31:01.720
<v Speaker 2>It's like if I regret it after it's done and

0:31:01.760 --> 0:31:03.120
<v Speaker 2>then I can't get it back.

0:31:04.800 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Then you move your jet. You said your name was

0:31:10.680 --> 0:31:16.600
<v Speaker 1>yeah Jet. If you what if you you're afraid of

0:31:16.640 --> 0:31:22.400
<v Speaker 1>regretting it, yeah Jet? You just you just move forward, man,

0:31:23.360 --> 0:31:25.840
<v Speaker 1>you just gotta move forward. I mean, who you know what?

0:31:25.880 --> 0:31:28.560
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you do this and maybe you regret it, but

0:31:28.880 --> 0:31:31.680
<v Speaker 1>then maybe a year later because you did this, you

0:31:31.760 --> 0:31:34.040
<v Speaker 1>end up in a different spot that leads to this

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:36.480
<v Speaker 1>different opportunity, and then you go, holy shit, if I

0:31:36.520 --> 0:31:37.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't do that thing that I thought I regret it

0:31:38.000 --> 0:31:39.680
<v Speaker 1>at the one time, then I wouldn't be in this situation.

0:31:40.040 --> 0:31:42.719
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you don't do it and then you do regret it.

0:31:42.800 --> 0:31:44.640
<v Speaker 1>So you just really have no fucking idea. You really

0:31:44.680 --> 0:31:45.400
<v Speaker 1>have no fucking idea.

0:31:45.440 --> 0:31:48.720
<v Speaker 8>You can only ever make You could only ever make

0:31:50.160 --> 0:31:53.920
<v Speaker 8>informed guesses with the information that you have access to

0:31:54.240 --> 0:31:56.800
<v Speaker 8>at the time, and that's the best you can do.

0:31:57.480 --> 0:32:00.240
<v Speaker 1>And if you do that, it's pretty great. And then

0:32:00.360 --> 0:32:02.920
<v Speaker 1>other than that, you have no idea and you just

0:32:02.960 --> 0:32:06.480
<v Speaker 1>have to roll with whatever the outcome is of the

0:32:06.560 --> 0:32:10.600
<v Speaker 1>decision you made with the information you had at the time,

0:32:11.080 --> 0:32:15.240
<v Speaker 1>and just keep rolling with that. Do with what I

0:32:15.280 --> 0:32:17.600
<v Speaker 1>told do what you will with what I'm telling you

0:32:17.680 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 1>on this call. Man, it's not I'm not here to

0:32:20.640 --> 0:32:23.120
<v Speaker 1>tell you what to do with your life, but I

0:32:24.200 --> 0:32:29.480
<v Speaker 1>do want you to know that you are not tramped,

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:33.120
<v Speaker 1>that no person has the right to make you feel

0:32:33.160 --> 0:32:41.040
<v Speaker 1>like you are, and that you should, you know, carefully

0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:47.240
<v Speaker 1>evaluate your decisions and not the you know, a slave

0:32:47.440 --> 0:32:49.959
<v Speaker 1>to them necessarily because you're over here, like, oh am

0:32:49.960 --> 0:32:52.120
<v Speaker 1>I going to regret it? You don't fucking know. You

0:32:52.120 --> 0:32:54.080
<v Speaker 1>could stay and regret it. You could leave and regret it.

0:32:54.120 --> 0:32:57.280
<v Speaker 1>You could do some third thing and regret that. You

0:32:57.320 --> 0:32:58.840
<v Speaker 1>could stay. It could be great, You could leave, it

0:32:58.840 --> 0:33:00.400
<v Speaker 1>could be You just have no fucking idea. You're just

0:33:00.400 --> 0:33:02.800
<v Speaker 1>doing what you can with the information you have at

0:33:02.800 --> 0:33:06.680
<v Speaker 1>the time, and then whatever that outcome is, you just

0:33:07.120 --> 0:33:09.600
<v Speaker 1>move forward and you roll with that, and then you

0:33:09.760 --> 0:33:18.280
<v Speaker 1>move forward from that new outcome. You're riding your timeline.

0:33:18.480 --> 0:33:19.520
<v Speaker 1>Does any of that make sense?

0:33:22.240 --> 0:33:24.920
<v Speaker 2>That was a lot, but yeah, it does make sense.

0:33:26.040 --> 0:33:29.040
<v Speaker 1>Okay. How do you feel, Jets.

0:33:34.320 --> 0:33:35.560
<v Speaker 2>Discombobulated?

0:33:36.720 --> 0:33:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I'm sorry to hear that all this shit is

0:33:43.560 --> 0:33:45.720
<v Speaker 1>going on with you, Jet. You seem like a nice guy,

0:33:45.760 --> 0:33:49.760
<v Speaker 1>and you know, I do hope the best for you.

<v Speaker 2>Thank you, gek. You have a great night.

0:34:16.960 --> 0:34:17.080
<v Speaker 3>Bro.

0:34:17.160 --> 0:34:20.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm so conflicted with this podcast because I don't I

0:34:21.640 --> 0:34:26.400
<v Speaker 1>really it's really not my place to tell people what

0:34:26.480 --> 0:34:30.640
<v Speaker 1>to do with their lives, but goddamn do I want

0:34:30.680 --> 0:34:35.279
<v Speaker 1>to sometimes really badly. I really I try not to

0:34:35.400 --> 0:34:40.960
<v Speaker 1>because I don't think it's my place, but fuck god

0:34:41.080 --> 0:34:46.440
<v Speaker 1>damn it, sometimes I really really want to tell people

0:34:47.560 --> 0:34:57.160
<v Speaker 1>what to do. I try not to. Jet Jet Jet

0:34:57.239 --> 0:35:03.359
<v Speaker 1>Jet Jet. Well, No, I met what I said. I said.

0:35:03.360 --> 0:35:05.040
<v Speaker 1>I think I did say what I needed to say

0:35:05.120 --> 0:35:09.920
<v Speaker 1>to Jet, and I don't regret it. I'm glad I

0:35:09.920 --> 0:35:11.839
<v Speaker 1>did it that way. Instead of telling him he needs

0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:15.120
<v Speaker 1>to break off his engagements, I met. I met what

0:35:15.160 --> 0:35:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I said. I said, to fucking evaluate what's going on

0:35:18.640 --> 0:35:21.560
<v Speaker 1>with you, and don't be afraid of the outcome of

0:35:21.600 --> 0:35:28.120
<v Speaker 1>that evaluation. But but have the evaluation. Don't let anyone

0:35:28.160 --> 0:35:36.120
<v Speaker 1>feel like they're possessing you. Thanks for calling Jet. What's

0:35:36.160 --> 0:35:36.440
<v Speaker 1>going on?

0:35:36.560 --> 0:35:36.719
<v Speaker 5>Man?

0:35:39.239 --> 0:35:42.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? So basically, I I've got a bit of an

0:35:42.760 --> 0:35:46.480
<v Speaker 3>issue that I was hoping I could speak to the

0:35:46.560 --> 0:35:47.240
<v Speaker 3>getto about.

0:35:48.640 --> 0:35:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, which, first of all, where are you are you

0:35:50.239 --> 0:35:50.800
<v Speaker 1>in a car?

0:35:53.320 --> 0:35:53.719
<v Speaker 3>No? No?

0:35:53.920 --> 0:35:54.279
<v Speaker 2>Hold on?

0:35:55.160 --> 0:35:56.080
<v Speaker 3>Is that better?

0:35:57.920 --> 0:35:59.600
<v Speaker 1>It's not a question of better or worse. I was

0:35:59.640 --> 0:36:02.080
<v Speaker 1>just asked skiing if you were in a car.

0:36:02.960 --> 0:36:05.560
<v Speaker 3>No, I was on the roof of a small chicken hut.

0:36:06.640 --> 0:36:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Okay, let's go into that real quick. You were on

0:36:08.600 --> 0:36:15.279
<v Speaker 1>the roof of a small chicken hut. Right, what are

0:36:15.280 --> 0:36:17.279
<v Speaker 1>you doing on the roof of a small chicken hut?

0:36:20.840 --> 0:36:26.440
<v Speaker 3>But it's dark out where I am, and I just

0:36:27.040 --> 0:36:30.800
<v Speaker 3>enjoy gazing at the stars, and the chicken hut usually

0:36:30.800 --> 0:36:37.000
<v Speaker 3>provides the best the best of you.

0:36:37.000 --> 0:36:40.719
<v Speaker 1>You know what. That didn't answer sort of the underlying

0:36:40.800 --> 0:36:46.719
<v Speaker 1>curiosity behind the question, but it was a legitimate answer. Right,

0:36:48.000 --> 0:36:50.520
<v Speaker 1>it's just your Uh, what's your what's your thing? What's

0:36:50.520 --> 0:36:50.879
<v Speaker 1>your thing?

0:36:51.840 --> 0:36:52.080
<v Speaker 3>Man?

0:36:52.160 --> 0:36:53.640
<v Speaker 1>What's going on? You have a thing?

0:36:55.440 --> 0:37:02.600
<v Speaker 3>Well, I uh, it's a bit embarrassing. I'm sexually attracted

0:37:02.640 --> 0:37:04.640
<v Speaker 3>to various food items.

0:37:05.520 --> 0:37:09.200
<v Speaker 1>You are sexually attracted to various food items. What is

0:37:09.239 --> 0:37:13.560
<v Speaker 1>it about a food item that would make it attractive

0:37:13.600 --> 0:37:13.799
<v Speaker 1>to you?

0:37:17.000 --> 0:37:21.400
<v Speaker 3>Well, first of all, it's mainly spaghetti with the butter sauce.

0:37:22.080 --> 0:37:26.680
<v Speaker 3>I can't get enough of it. And I think for

0:37:26.760 --> 0:37:30.399
<v Speaker 3>the spaghetti, it's more of the way, you know how

0:37:30.400 --> 0:37:36.399
<v Speaker 3>spaghetti starts off hard and then get soft in the water. Yeah,

0:37:36.480 --> 0:37:37.680
<v Speaker 3>definitely has something to do with that.

0:37:38.400 --> 0:37:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so your attraction to this food, are you is

0:37:44.000 --> 0:37:46.800
<v Speaker 1>the sexual attraction happening when you are cooking the food,

0:37:46.840 --> 0:37:49.719
<v Speaker 1>when you're eating the food, when you are are you

0:37:49.800 --> 0:37:53.040
<v Speaker 1>having sex with the food? What exactly are you doing

0:37:53.080 --> 0:37:56.480
<v Speaker 1>when you are finding yourself aroused by the food? How

0:37:56.520 --> 0:37:58.120
<v Speaker 1>are you interacting with the food?

0:38:00.080 --> 0:38:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Well? It definitely, it definitely you know gets me going

0:38:06.239 --> 0:38:09.720
<v Speaker 3>when I when I prepare the food, but once it's prepared,

0:38:09.840 --> 0:38:12.759
<v Speaker 3>I I do tend to have sexual intercourse with it.

0:38:14.080 --> 0:38:17.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, and tell me why this is a problem for you.

0:38:21.000 --> 0:38:25.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, you know, I guess it's not that much of

0:38:25.040 --> 0:38:28.440
<v Speaker 3>a problem, but it's I don't know anybody else who

0:38:28.880 --> 0:38:31.719
<v Speaker 3>is sexually attracted to food, so it has to be

0:38:31.920 --> 0:38:33.319
<v Speaker 3>some sort of problem, I guess.

0:38:34.800 --> 0:38:38.719
<v Speaker 1>Well, so, so you're saying that it's a problem because

0:38:39.880 --> 0:38:42.080
<v Speaker 1>not a lot of other people you know do it

0:38:42.640 --> 0:38:52.520
<v Speaker 1>and it is not a conventional thing. Yeah, okay, Yeah, Well, look,

0:38:52.560 --> 0:38:54.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be honest with you. I don't think that

0:38:54.320 --> 0:38:57.759
<v Speaker 1>that is a good definition of a problem. I think

0:38:57.800 --> 0:39:02.880
<v Speaker 1>a problem for you would be sothing that is interfering

0:39:03.880 --> 0:39:09.839
<v Speaker 1>with you being able to live life in a positive way.

0:39:09.880 --> 0:39:12.600
<v Speaker 1>In the way in which you want. And so I

0:39:13.160 --> 0:39:20.319
<v Speaker 1>ask you, is there anything sort of any negative consequences

0:39:20.360 --> 0:39:26.319
<v Speaker 1>that this sexual food addiction we could call it, is

0:39:26.360 --> 0:39:30.400
<v Speaker 1>having on the rest of your life?

0:39:32.000 --> 0:39:36.880
<v Speaker 3>Well? I do get dirty looks at restaurants.

0:39:37.640 --> 0:39:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So you have sex with the food in public

<v Speaker 3>Now?

0:42:36.680 --> 0:42:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Somebody else said the exact same thing when I asked

0:42:38.719 --> 0:42:39.560
<v Speaker 1>him that exact question.

0:42:41.680 --> 0:42:50.280
<v Speaker 4>Really, yeah, yeah, I said that, Brian.

0:42:50.400 --> 0:42:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Why do you have a chicken hut?

0:42:54.600 --> 0:42:54.719
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:42:54.800 --> 0:42:54.920
<v Speaker 2>Sir?

0:42:56.880 --> 0:42:59.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. I don't. I don't. I don't have

0:42:59.719 --> 0:43:05.120
<v Speaker 3>any chickens. It's just kind of always been there with

0:43:05.200 --> 0:43:05.960
<v Speaker 3>the property.

0:43:06.760 --> 0:43:10.719
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so it's a chicken hut, but it doesn't have

0:43:10.719 --> 0:43:17.359
<v Speaker 1>any chickens, right, Brian. What time is it where you are?

0:43:20.000 --> 0:43:22.880
<v Speaker 3>The nine to fourteen pm?

0:43:22.920 --> 0:43:32.799
<v Speaker 7>Okay, you should go to sleep, Okay on the chicken hut. Yeah,

0:43:33.080 --> 0:43:36.080
<v Speaker 7>on the chicken hut or in the chicken.

0:43:35.920 --> 0:43:39.279
<v Speaker 1>Hut, Brandon. So I think that's want to say to

0:43:39.280 --> 0:43:40.440
<v Speaker 1>the people of the computer before we go.

0:43:44.040 --> 0:43:48.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry I wasted your time.

0:43:48.560 --> 0:43:51.360
<v Speaker 1>And one day I will find the strength to forgive you.

0:43:51.440 --> 0:43:55.480
<v Speaker 1>But that day is not today, Brian. It could be tomorrow,

0:44:00.600 --> 0:44:03.400
<v Speaker 1>all right, I forgive you. It was today. It's fine.

0:44:04.760 --> 0:44:10.920
<v Speaker 1>You know. I opened these lines with no expectations, and

0:44:11.000 --> 0:44:13.600
<v Speaker 1>therefore how can I get upset If I have no expectations.

0:44:13.760 --> 0:44:17.720
<v Speaker 1>That's the that's the key to life. To expect nothing,

0:44:18.200 --> 0:44:20.960
<v Speaker 1>and you will never get upset. But then you'll never

0:44:21.000 --> 0:44:23.600
<v Speaker 1>have anything to look forward to either. It's a catch

0:44:23.640 --> 0:44:24.080
<v Speaker 1>twenty two.

0:44:24.880 --> 0:44:30.600
<v Speaker 6>Hello Hi, oh hi, wile, Wow, this is very surprising.

0:44:31.719 --> 0:44:35.120
<v Speaker 1>Why why is it you called a phone number and

0:44:35.200 --> 0:44:37.799
<v Speaker 1>somebody picked up. I feel like that's that happens to

0:44:37.920 --> 0:44:40.640
<v Speaker 1>most people all the time. Lots of people make phone

0:44:40.680 --> 0:44:43.040
<v Speaker 1>calls and have a person pick up on the other end.

0:44:44.840 --> 0:44:47.359
<v Speaker 6>That's true. You you got me there.

0:44:48.200 --> 0:44:50.480
<v Speaker 1>What's going on, Angie? How's how's it hanging?

0:44:52.600 --> 0:44:57.719
<v Speaker 6>Oh, it's hanging. I called over. I wanted to talk

0:44:57.760 --> 0:45:02.200
<v Speaker 6>about one friend, but while I was waiting, I decided

0:45:02.200 --> 0:45:06.399
<v Speaker 6>I'd rather talk about another friend and another problem I'm

0:45:06.440 --> 0:45:07.200
<v Speaker 6>having with them.

0:45:08.040 --> 0:45:09.879
<v Speaker 1>Okay, who is this friend and what's the problem you're

0:45:09.880 --> 0:45:11.759
<v Speaker 1>having with them?

0:45:12.360 --> 0:45:16.400
<v Speaker 6>So it's this guy I've been talking to for a

0:45:16.400 --> 0:45:19.160
<v Speaker 6>few months. Sorry, I'm like nervous.

0:45:20.520 --> 0:45:23.160
<v Speaker 1>No, don't worry. We're we're just hanging out here. We're

0:45:23.239 --> 0:45:26.760
<v Speaker 1>vibing it up in the gecko and the gecko world.

0:45:27.120 --> 0:45:33.400
<v Speaker 6>Okay. Anyways, this guy and I we share a lot

0:45:33.440 --> 0:45:38.160
<v Speaker 6>of stuff in commons. We like the same music and stuff.

0:45:38.239 --> 0:45:42.279
<v Speaker 6>So we're hanging out for quite a while, and eventually

0:45:42.400 --> 0:45:49.960
<v Speaker 6>our relationship turned pretty sexual, pretty explicit, and we started

0:45:49.960 --> 0:45:53.879
<v Speaker 6>like cooking up regularly. It was awesome, Like he knows

0:45:53.880 --> 0:45:58.600
<v Speaker 6>what he's doing. That's not my concerns. My concern is

0:45:58.600 --> 0:46:02.759
<v Speaker 6>that over the time I've known him, he's become like

0:46:03.320 --> 0:46:05.320
<v Speaker 6>I feel like I might've hyped him up too much

0:46:06.200 --> 0:46:11.280
<v Speaker 6>because now he's like really cocky and he talks about

0:46:11.280 --> 0:46:16.040
<v Speaker 6>how any girl that he meets he'll like be able

0:46:16.080 --> 0:46:23.600
<v Speaker 6>to get into their pants basically, And I would joke

0:46:23.640 --> 0:46:25.840
<v Speaker 6>around with him and say like, oh, okay, do you

0:46:25.880 --> 0:46:30.680
<v Speaker 6>have like this rotation going on? You have like a harem?

0:46:31.080 --> 0:46:34.080
<v Speaker 6>Now I call it a harem all the time, and

0:46:34.080 --> 0:46:40.880
<v Speaker 6>he hates it. But it's just I am getting Lately,

0:46:40.920 --> 0:46:45.799
<v Speaker 6>I've been distancing myself from him just because he's just

0:46:45.880 --> 0:46:51.760
<v Speaker 6>become like so involved in getting all these other girls

0:46:51.840 --> 0:46:56.160
<v Speaker 6>and like hooking up with them and stuff. And the

0:46:56.200 --> 0:47:01.960
<v Speaker 6>worst thing is he'll brag about it. And I did

0:47:02.000 --> 0:47:04.279
<v Speaker 6>tell him I was starting to develop feelings for him,

0:47:05.080 --> 0:47:07.080
<v Speaker 6>and I knew from the get go he wasn't like

0:47:08.200 --> 0:47:14.200
<v Speaker 6>emotionally available. But I feel kind of shitty distancing myself

0:47:14.200 --> 0:47:16.640
<v Speaker 6>from him because I'm kind of up to something similar.

0:47:16.719 --> 0:47:20.200
<v Speaker 6>Like I muss around with a bunch of dudes. I'm

0:47:20.239 --> 0:47:21.480
<v Speaker 6>not a bunch. I shouldn't say that.

0:47:21.960 --> 0:47:22.920
<v Speaker 2>I have a few.

0:47:22.800 --> 0:47:26.200
<v Speaker 1>Guys I'll see, sure, yeah, okay.

0:47:26.040 --> 0:47:31.040
<v Speaker 6>But but he's just it's gotten to the point where

0:47:31.320 --> 0:47:34.880
<v Speaker 6>I just don't want to really be his friend. But

0:47:35.080 --> 0:47:38.400
<v Speaker 6>we have a really good connection and I feel like

0:47:38.400 --> 0:47:39.680
<v Speaker 6>I'm being a shitty person.

0:47:40.680 --> 0:47:48.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So so you're talking to multiple people, he's talking

0:47:48.200 --> 0:47:51.239
<v Speaker 1>to multiple people. You both know that each other are

0:47:51.280 --> 0:47:54.640
<v Speaker 1>talking to multiple people, and you both are okay with it.

0:47:57.680 --> 0:48:01.319
<v Speaker 6>That's another thing whenever I talk about out, like oh,

0:48:01.400 --> 0:48:04.919
<v Speaker 6>I went to go see so and so, and he'll

0:48:04.920 --> 0:48:06.960
<v Speaker 6>ask for details to He'll want to know if we

0:48:06.960 --> 0:48:10.239
<v Speaker 6>were like if we hooked up or anything, and I'll

0:48:10.239 --> 0:48:13.439
<v Speaker 6>tell him and he'll see him a little like put

0:48:13.480 --> 0:48:14.120
<v Speaker 6>off by it.

0:48:17.120 --> 0:48:22.479
<v Speaker 1>But see, see that's the thing, like, look, if you're

0:48:22.520 --> 0:48:24.799
<v Speaker 1>seeing a bunch of dudes and he's seeing a bunch

0:48:24.840 --> 0:48:27.440
<v Speaker 1>of girls, and you both are freely talking about it

0:48:27.520 --> 0:48:31.160
<v Speaker 1>like you know that. That's That's one thing I think

0:48:31.320 --> 0:48:34.520
<v Speaker 1>when if you're seeing a bunch of other people and

0:48:34.520 --> 0:48:36.120
<v Speaker 1>then one of the people you're seeing is seeing other

0:48:36.120 --> 0:48:38.680
<v Speaker 1>people and that makes you upset, that's got to be unfair.

0:48:41.040 --> 0:48:43.320
<v Speaker 6>That's yeah, that's very true.

0:48:44.280 --> 0:48:49.120
<v Speaker 1>But also it kind of sounds to me like that's

0:48:49.160 --> 0:48:52.200
<v Speaker 1>happening on and again I'm just speculating, so you tell

0:48:52.239 --> 0:48:54.480
<v Speaker 1>me if I say anything that doesn't sound accurate. But

0:48:54.560 --> 0:48:56.880
<v Speaker 1>it sounds to me like that's happening on both sides.

0:48:56.880 --> 0:48:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Because he's talking about these girls that he's, you know, seeing,

0:48:59.760 --> 0:49:02.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's making you a little upset. And you're talking

0:49:02.080 --> 0:49:04.040
<v Speaker 1>about the guys that you're seeing and it's making him

0:49:04.040 --> 0:49:06.319
<v Speaker 1>a little upset. And so you both sound like you

0:49:06.360 --> 0:49:11.919
<v Speaker 1>are harboring these feelings for each other. Right.

0:49:12.880 --> 0:49:17.080
<v Speaker 6>Oh, I've talked to him about that. I've told him,

0:49:17.320 --> 0:49:20.360
<v Speaker 6>I told him that I had feelings for him. But

0:49:20.640 --> 0:49:24.160
<v Speaker 6>he's very he's a super hippie, like in every sense

0:49:24.160 --> 0:49:24.600
<v Speaker 6>of the word.

0:49:25.200 --> 0:49:26.400
<v Speaker 8>Like he is all.

0:49:26.280 --> 0:49:30.520
<v Speaker 6>About free love. But what'un too, I discovered as he's

0:49:30.560 --> 0:49:33.960
<v Speaker 6>not really I went call it free love. It's more

0:49:34.080 --> 0:49:37.839
<v Speaker 6>just like free sex. Like, okay, anyone can have this, dick.

0:49:39.200 --> 0:49:45.799
<v Speaker 1>So I mean, well, tell me why, why do you

0:49:45.800 --> 0:49:48.239
<v Speaker 1>feel like a shitty person? What is making you feel

0:49:48.320 --> 0:49:49.280
<v Speaker 1>like a shitty person?

0:49:51.200 --> 0:49:54.840
<v Speaker 6>Well, because I, like I mentioned, I'm kind of to

0:49:54.960 --> 0:49:59.520
<v Speaker 6>the same stuff. I'm really busy with school, I'm really

0:49:59.520 --> 0:50:04.400
<v Speaker 6>busy with work, So I don't really pursue like these

0:50:04.760 --> 0:50:08.080
<v Speaker 6>monogamous relationships because I know I wouldn't have the time

0:50:08.200 --> 0:50:12.319
<v Speaker 6>or the energy to put into that. Sure, but like

0:50:12.400 --> 0:50:14.880
<v Speaker 6>I'll still I feel like to have fun every now

0:50:14.960 --> 0:50:18.960
<v Speaker 6>and then. Okay, I feel like I'm being safe about that.

0:50:19.080 --> 0:50:20.200
<v Speaker 4>But I don't know.

0:50:20.239 --> 0:50:22.560
<v Speaker 6>I feel like, if anything, it's just how he's handling

0:50:23.560 --> 0:50:27.600
<v Speaker 6>having multiple partners, Like I just don't like hearing about it.

0:50:28.200 --> 0:50:31.200
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, I don't, you know, in terms of you

0:50:31.239 --> 0:50:35.239
<v Speaker 1>feel like a shitty person because you want to just

0:50:35.360 --> 0:50:38.359
<v Speaker 1>kind of sleep around and have fun, you know, I don't.

0:50:38.360 --> 0:50:40.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that makes you a shitty person. I mean,

0:50:40.360 --> 0:50:43.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean it sounds as though you are doing that

0:50:43.520 --> 0:50:47.040
<v Speaker 1>with other people who also are not looking for monogamous

0:50:47.080 --> 0:50:49.760
<v Speaker 1>relationships and are sleeping around having fun, and it sounds

0:50:49.800 --> 0:50:52.960
<v Speaker 1>like you, you and those people are are you know,

0:50:53.200 --> 0:50:55.520
<v Speaker 1>being honest with each other about that, And so I don't.

0:50:55.560 --> 0:50:59.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that there is necessarily a shitty person

0:51:00.520 --> 0:51:05.560
<v Speaker 1>or a bad person in this situation, you know, because

0:51:05.560 --> 0:51:08.960
<v Speaker 1>you both are you know, doing your thing.

0:51:11.440 --> 0:51:11.680
<v Speaker 3>Right.

0:51:12.600 --> 0:51:17.000
<v Speaker 6>As long as it's laid out, you know, everyone understands

0:51:17.440 --> 0:51:21.239
<v Speaker 6>like this is like our encounters, this is what that is.

0:51:22.000 --> 0:51:25.880
<v Speaker 6>We're not doing anything romantic, but he kind of I

0:51:25.920 --> 0:51:28.799
<v Speaker 6>don't know, he's giving me all these weird signs that

0:51:28.840 --> 0:51:32.319
<v Speaker 6>he might want to pursue something romantic with me, but

0:51:33.320 --> 0:51:37.080
<v Speaker 6>he's also aware that I'm very busy, so he needs

0:51:37.120 --> 0:51:39.240
<v Speaker 6>other people to entertain him while I'm gone.

0:51:39.600 --> 0:51:42.279
<v Speaker 1>Well, let me ask you this, are you do you

0:51:42.480 --> 0:51:50.920
<v Speaker 1>desire to pursue something more serious with this guy?

0:51:51.200 --> 0:51:54.440
<v Speaker 6>I want to say yes, but since he's been acting

0:51:54.520 --> 0:51:56.319
<v Speaker 6>this way, it's just such a turn off.

0:51:57.080 --> 0:52:03.759
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmmmm. You know, listen, I think here's the thing is.

0:52:05.960 --> 0:52:09.839
<v Speaker 1>I think things like this can you know, you can

0:52:09.880 --> 0:52:13.040
<v Speaker 1>feel one way about it at one point in time,

0:52:13.719 --> 0:52:17.799
<v Speaker 1>feel a different way, change your mind this that and

0:52:17.840 --> 0:52:21.160
<v Speaker 1>the other thing, and that changing of the mind, and

0:52:21.160 --> 0:52:24.719
<v Speaker 1>that you know, desire to leave or desire to want

0:52:24.760 --> 0:52:30.120
<v Speaker 1>more doesn't necessarily have to be like a product of

0:52:30.200 --> 0:52:32.680
<v Speaker 1>you or anyone being a shitty person. I think it's

0:52:32.719 --> 0:52:39.000
<v Speaker 1>more just a product of desires changing and feelings changing

0:52:39.080 --> 0:52:43.760
<v Speaker 1>as things evolve, and that can just be that without

0:52:43.800 --> 0:52:50.960
<v Speaker 1>any sort of malice attributed in any direction. Right, So,

0:52:51.120 --> 0:52:54.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, if you're engaged in something with this guy

0:52:54.360 --> 0:52:56.560
<v Speaker 1>and you just decide, you know, this worked for me

0:52:56.600 --> 0:52:59.440
<v Speaker 1>at one point and it no longer, does you know?

0:52:59.840 --> 0:53:02.480
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you should feel shitty about making that decision.

0:53:05.680 --> 0:53:11.080
<v Speaker 6>Okay, No, I okay, you're right.

0:53:14.200 --> 0:53:15.719
<v Speaker 1>I mean, you don't have to just tell me I'm right.

0:53:15.719 --> 0:53:17.000
<v Speaker 1>What do you what do you think about.

0:53:16.760 --> 0:53:23.840
<v Speaker 6>All that, So I agree. One there's like you mentioned,

0:53:24.920 --> 0:53:27.400
<v Speaker 6>I might have enjoyab what we're doing at the beginning,

0:53:27.440 --> 0:53:29.960
<v Speaker 6>but things have changed and I've just been a different

0:53:30.040 --> 0:53:32.560
<v Speaker 6>side of him than I might not be that I

0:53:32.600 --> 0:53:37.560
<v Speaker 6>am not very attracted to and that's okay. I don't

0:53:37.600 --> 0:53:44.160
<v Speaker 6>wish any harm on him, obviously, well hopefully that's obvious.

0:53:45.280 --> 0:53:50.120
<v Speaker 6>But I feel better about this situation already.

0:53:51.520 --> 0:53:55.080
<v Speaker 1>Good. Yeah, I think. I guess I'm just and I

0:53:55.360 --> 0:53:56.799
<v Speaker 1>kind of talked about it a little bit. I guess

0:53:56.800 --> 0:54:01.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm just very curious as to why you're feeling bad

0:54:01.280 --> 0:54:05.239
<v Speaker 1>about yourself. You know, it's okay for you to shift

0:54:05.640 --> 0:54:09.760
<v Speaker 1>your feelings about a situation and decide to distance yourself

0:54:09.800 --> 0:54:13.080
<v Speaker 1>from it if that's how you feel as though you

0:54:13.080 --> 0:54:14.440
<v Speaker 1>you want to act.

0:54:17.160 --> 0:54:24.400
<v Speaker 6>Right, should I? Why do I feel shitty? I just

0:54:25.440 --> 0:54:30.320
<v Speaker 6>I don't. I grew up in a very religious household,

0:54:30.880 --> 0:54:35.920
<v Speaker 6>so just the concept of being like so free and

0:54:35.960 --> 0:54:40.680
<v Speaker 6>so open with my sexuality has been like, there's always

0:54:40.680 --> 0:54:43.920
<v Speaker 6>that shame attached to it. So part of me thinks, Okay,

0:54:44.640 --> 0:54:46.920
<v Speaker 6>why did you give all of this to this person

0:54:47.520 --> 0:54:49.400
<v Speaker 6>when in the end you're just going to walk away?

0:54:52.280 --> 0:54:53.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, I think there is a lot of like

0:54:54.360 --> 0:54:57.560
<v Speaker 1>I mean, religiously and societal wise, I think there's a

0:54:57.560 --> 0:55:02.800
<v Speaker 1>lot of shame associated with like sleeping around and stuff.

0:55:02.840 --> 0:55:05.880
<v Speaker 1>But it's it's I mean, at least in my opinion,

0:55:05.960 --> 0:55:09.160
<v Speaker 1>like baseless. I mean, fuck, you know, as long as

0:55:09.200 --> 0:55:11.560
<v Speaker 1>you're as long as everyone you're sleeping with is kind

0:55:11.600 --> 0:55:16.880
<v Speaker 1>of on the same page. Like why why does that matter?

0:55:18.840 --> 0:55:19.040
<v Speaker 5>Right?

0:55:20.400 --> 0:55:22.319
<v Speaker 6>I think I just, like I said, it's just that

0:55:22.480 --> 0:55:27.200
<v Speaker 6>shame like growing up with and thinking, Okay, what I'm

0:55:27.200 --> 0:55:30.640
<v Speaker 6>doing that's pretty wrong is my parents would not like this,

0:55:31.840 --> 0:55:35.399
<v Speaker 6>and like when something goes south, thinking Okay, they were right,

0:55:36.239 --> 0:55:38.560
<v Speaker 6>Like I shouldn't have been doing this to begin with.

0:55:40.480 --> 0:55:43.360
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you this. Let's if we threw away

0:55:43.440 --> 0:55:46.759
<v Speaker 1>your parents, we threw away society, and we looked into

0:55:46.760 --> 0:55:51.920
<v Speaker 1>your own brain and your own views on what is

0:55:52.000 --> 0:55:57.359
<v Speaker 1>right and what is wrong. What do we think?

0:56:00.480 --> 0:56:06.640
<v Speaker 6>I think, Well, we're all humans, we all have these urges.

0:56:06.760 --> 0:56:11.399
<v Speaker 6>There's nothing wrong with expressing that in a healthy, responsible way,

0:56:12.120 --> 0:56:15.600
<v Speaker 6>and I don't see anything wrong with it.

0:56:18.239 --> 0:56:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so I'll continue to let me interrupt you.

0:56:25.400 --> 0:56:30.600
<v Speaker 6>Oh well, yeah, that's basically I've always I don't see

0:56:30.600 --> 0:56:35.919
<v Speaker 6>anything wrong with someone having multiple partners. Or going out

0:56:36.000 --> 0:56:39.480
<v Speaker 6>and doing what they want to do as long as

0:56:39.480 --> 0:56:41.920
<v Speaker 6>it's responsible and it's safe.

0:56:44.200 --> 0:56:49.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know, Angie, I mean I hope you. I

0:56:49.200 --> 0:56:51.719
<v Speaker 1>know that there's sort of in the back of your

0:56:51.719 --> 0:56:54.840
<v Speaker 1>mind the puppet masters of society and your parents that

0:56:54.920 --> 0:56:59.680
<v Speaker 1>are imposing their own morality upon you. And I guess

0:56:59.760 --> 0:57:02.040
<v Speaker 1>if if I can leave you with anything in this call,

0:57:02.120 --> 0:57:06.880
<v Speaker 1>is that I hope that you have the confidence and

0:57:07.480 --> 0:57:12.360
<v Speaker 1>courage to, you know, make your own actions according to

0:57:13.960 --> 0:57:17.720
<v Speaker 1>your own beliefs about how you think you should be

0:57:17.760 --> 0:57:23.880
<v Speaker 1>living and not you know, your parents or anyone else's.

0:57:24.200 --> 0:57:28.480
<v Speaker 6>Yes, that's what I try and do. You know, sometimes

0:57:28.480 --> 0:57:32.800
<v Speaker 6>you get well, I get into my head and things

0:57:32.840 --> 0:57:35.480
<v Speaker 6>go south. I'm like, Okay, this was my fall. I

0:57:35.520 --> 0:57:38.600
<v Speaker 6>shouldn't have been doing this, that or the other.

0:57:39.440 --> 0:57:42.320
<v Speaker 1>No, I mean, I think it's your I mean, you're

0:57:42.360 --> 0:57:44.440
<v Speaker 1>in a situation it's just not working for you anymore.

0:57:44.880 --> 0:57:46.640
<v Speaker 1>And it's okay to move on from something that's not

0:57:46.680 --> 0:57:49.200
<v Speaker 1>working for you anymore. It doesn't have to you know,

0:57:49.480 --> 0:57:52.680
<v Speaker 1>end explosively or with a bad person. You know, it

0:57:52.680 --> 0:57:56.280
<v Speaker 1>can just be as simple as as this worked for

0:57:56.320 --> 0:57:57.320
<v Speaker 1>me and no longer does.

0:57:57.440 --> 0:58:02.480
<v Speaker 6>So I'm moving on, right, I know you didn't mean this,

0:58:02.800 --> 0:58:07.240
<v Speaker 6>but I originally called over a problem I was having

0:58:07.240 --> 0:58:09.800
<v Speaker 6>with another friend, and in a way you did answer,

0:58:10.160 --> 0:58:14.960
<v Speaker 6>or you did help me with that other friend relationship too.

0:58:15.400 --> 0:58:19.600
<v Speaker 6>You're just very well spoken, good so I appreciate you.

0:58:20.240 --> 0:58:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Is there anything else want to say to the people

0:58:21.520 --> 0:58:23.040
<v Speaker 1>of the computer before we go? Angie?

0:58:25.600 --> 0:58:29.800
<v Speaker 6>Oh, be yourself. Keep trying to call in because I

0:58:29.840 --> 0:58:32.960
<v Speaker 6>honestly thought I wasn't gonna get a chance to talk

0:58:33.000 --> 0:58:35.560
<v Speaker 6>to Lyle. And here I am, and we did it.

0:58:36.120 --> 0:58:36.720
<v Speaker 6>Be happy.

0:58:37.320 --> 0:58:42.560
<v Speaker 1>Yes, we spoke to other human beings, made beautiful. Thank

0:58:42.560 --> 0:58:46.280
<v Speaker 1>you for calling Angel. I'll talk to you, maybe never again,

0:58:46.360 --> 0:58:48.320
<v Speaker 1>but possibly in another universe.

0:58:50.000 --> 0:58:59.840
<v Speaker 6>I'll be looking for you. Thank you, Lyle, thank you, Angie, bye.

0:58:55.600 --> 0:58:55.680
<v Speaker 1>And.

0:58:57.200 --> 0:58:57.480
<v Speaker 6>Thank you.

0:58:58.520 --> 0:59:01.320
<v Speaker 7>Every Ken goes through on his eye.

0:59:01.400 --> 0:59:04.560
<v Speaker 1>He's teaching you to about your life, but he's not

0:59:04.800 --> 0:59:06.920
<v Speaker 1>really an expert.
