I mean 34 00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,280 Speaker 1: not too long, well not even a year ago. It's 35 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,880 Speaker 1: time flies. Um, I would be remiss. This is a 36 00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: Bachelor focused podcast. I gotta ask you, Peter Um moving 37 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: right into he is Getna born a borda Plane. I'm 38 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: sorry for this, but we have have to know the 39 00:02:00,480 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: real reason. Why don't you do the Bachelor? These women 40 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: are going on Paradise thinking that you were the Bachelor, 41 00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,120 Speaker 1: so that you hopefully something you'll go to Paradise, But 42 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 1: why didn't you actually do the Bachelor at that point, 43 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:15,440 Speaker 1: It's not something I felt was right for me. I 44 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 1: was stressed out, having a hard time when as it 45 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,079 Speaker 1: was big on the Bachelour Rent, and when it came 46 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: down to, you know what, I want to do it 47 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,239 Speaker 1: all over again, I decided it wasn't right for my health, 48 00:02:26,280 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 1: my happiness and moving forward in my life. And so, 49 00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: you know, the conversations didn't really have to so much 50 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: further than Hey, would you want to do it? And 51 00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 1: I'm like, no, not really. Actley is on the line now, 52 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 1: she has questions for you. She was she loves herself 53 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,880 Speaker 1: some Peter, you know that she thinks you are. That 54 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:44,560 Speaker 1: cats me out. So she was disappointed when you weren't 55 00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 1: the Bachelor. I think a lot of people were a 56 00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: little disappointed when you're at the Bachelor. Actually, I know 57 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: you you want to dig into this a little bit 58 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 1: with Peter. Go ahead, Pierre. It's not just your happiness. 59 00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: We all know there are rumors of it being a 60 00:02:56,720 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: business decision. You maybe not getting money you got you 61 00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 1: gotta love us in on the real reason that you 62 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: didn't do the back that. But then there was Winter Games. 63 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: People are like, okay, he's on board for Winter Games, 64 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,320 Speaker 1: and then something fell through and it was you let 65 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 1: out so many people come on, let us in a more. Uh. 66 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: It was never about money for me. Um, I've never 67 00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:24,200 Speaker 1: had a Rome Financially, I didn't need the money. It 68 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,920 Speaker 1: doesn't pay as much as people think, So it wasn't 69 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: a financial decision for me. Uh. It was more like 70 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 1: I was saying, like, actually, is this gonna be the 71 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:34,240 Speaker 1: way that I want to find the love of my 72 00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: life and at this juncture in my life it's it's not. 73 00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: It wasn't And you know, I can't say, moving forward, 74 00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 1: looking at the future if it's something that I would 75 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,600 Speaker 1: necessarily want to pass up, but right now it's not. 76 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: And then with Winter Games, and it's actually a conversation 77 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: I had with producers like I would love to do it, 78 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 1: and then they just didn't pick me. It wasn't that 79 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,080 Speaker 1: I said no, I didn't want to or anything. It 80 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: just didn't pick me. I think that it was because 81 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: maybe they had a bad case in their mouth over 82 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 1: the whole back storer deal and then they were like, 83 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,680 Speaker 1: you know, we don't eat this drama going into Winter Game. 84 00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 1: I don't know. I still have a great um his 85 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:10,760 Speaker 1: friendship with a lot of the people that were on 86 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,480 Speaker 1: the production side of the show, including Mike Flighte, um 87 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,640 Speaker 1: Alan Bennett. The people I was closest to with Megan 88 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: and Todd were still talk to the regularly. So I 89 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: don't think that was okay. If I can't say it 90 00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 1: would be the case. Um, I think they were happy 91 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:27,360 Speaker 1: was what my decision was and everything. One of them 92 00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 1: said that they support me and my path in life, 93 00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:31,920 Speaker 1: and if it wasn't for the batch, they were all 94 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: happy for me. You know, everybody comes off The Bachelor 95 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: and the fans of the show think, you know, you 96 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:40,159 Speaker 1: can do it for the money, You're gonna be a 97 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,479 Speaker 1: millionaire off after the show. That's just not trust me 98 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,280 Speaker 1: like that. That is not the case. So I understand 99 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: financially why you wouldn't do it. I will be honest 100 00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,320 Speaker 1: as a friend. I was looking forward to you being 101 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: at Winter Games. I think you would have had a 102 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:55,240 Speaker 1: great time there. I just have felt that there was 103 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,599 Speaker 1: more going on than any of us ever knew. And 104 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: I mean, I guess if it really was, then choosing you, 105 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:02,919 Speaker 1: maybe I've got to get a produced online because it 106 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: just seems odd. Why would they not to Peter Kroud 107 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:09,599 Speaker 1: to be on Bach Winter Game. When a lot of 108 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,839 Speaker 1: these women going into the bat this year, I'd say 109 00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:13,640 Speaker 1: most of them. Actually tell me if you think I'm wrong. 110 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: Probably we're super excited about you being the Bachelor. I mean, 111 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,120 Speaker 1: you're good looking, you're smart. I mean, from what you say, 112 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 1: you're financially sound, you're you seem like the perfect guy. 113 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,160 Speaker 1: I mean, Peter, you're like making goals. I figured that 114 00:05:26,279 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: if you were on Winter Games, they would have gotten 115 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 1: at least a million more fewer because people were just 116 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: desperate to see more of Peter after the Bachelor. At Wrath, 117 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 1: They've got the franchises Golden Boy and Ben Though. I 118 00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 1: mean I watched the show another way that Ben handled 119 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,720 Speaker 1: themselves the way that you guys, we're kind of I 120 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 1: should say, they were showing then in many lives. I 121 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: was like, that is the next Bachelor. I'm thinking this 122 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 1: is gonna happen. Yeah? Is that is that a question? 123 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 1: Is it a question? I think I'm straight up statement. 124 00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:01,479 Speaker 1: Oh well, you know, I mean I hope that however 125 00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: they showed me on Bachelor in the Games is actually 126 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 1: who I am in real life. So I hope that 127 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:07,600 Speaker 1: I never feel like I've done this show. You're not 128 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 1: representative who I am. Now, if that looks like the 129 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 1: next Bachelor, then I guess people can think it looks 130 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 1: like the next Bachelor. I mean, I don't even think 131 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: they're having those conversations. From what Ashley tells me that 132 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 1: the crop of guys on this season the best l 133 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: and I mean there's some great ones. I wouldn't be 134 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: surprised if that guy comes from there. But it does 135 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: lead us to this question. I mean, I'm a big 136 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: fan of Paradise. I love watching Paradise. I always have. 137 00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 1: I got into it after my season The Bachlord because 138 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,599 Speaker 1: of the women that I cared about went on the show. 139 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: Would you do Paradise? Would it be this year? I 140 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: would not do Paradise probably ever Wait wait, wait, well, 141 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,040 Speaker 1: what I mean though you didn't answer the question no 142 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: that you have to be direct now, I probably wouldn't 143 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,320 Speaker 1: do Paradise. Ever, I would not do it, Okay, Now, 144 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: I can't say for the future, but I would say 145 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:57,360 Speaker 1: for now, it's not something I would ever really want 146 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 1: to do. Peter, I'm like, I can talk to you 147 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 1: forever about this because this season we're basically be called 148 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: puter in Paradise because season, say went on I thought 149 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: so it would just keep you seeing all of them 150 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: fight over you. I'm sure it would make good TV, 151 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,880 Speaker 1: but it wouldn't necessarily make for happiness in my life. 152 00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: I mean, like, I'm really on such a good, happy 153 00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: path right now and things are so good in my 154 00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: life that I don't need that, Like, I don't want 155 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: that attention right now. The attention again is already plenty. 156 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: Um so that the trajectory of my life has changed 157 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,760 Speaker 1: draft place since I was on the show, and I'm 158 00:07:38,280 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: so grateful for everything I had somelong with it, but 159 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: it's not something that emotionally I necessarily want to go 160 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: through again. It was tough time. Um, there's some dark days, 161 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:48,240 Speaker 1: just as to us so many happy days and now 162 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 1: like everything is so positive that I just don't want 163 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 1: to risk affecting that again. Pat Sort in Paradise is 164 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 1: not on far with that in my opinion.

I mean, 286 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: and I thought, honestly, we could dig in there and 287 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 1: you're getting ready to and I would have giving you 288 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 1: more time to do it, but we had to move 289 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,120 Speaker 1: on to do is leaving. We have to figure out 290 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 1: the true story behind this whole thing we do. That's like, 291 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,880 Speaker 1: it can't be true the whole Like it's got to 292 00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 1: be a business decision that was on just a personal decision. 293 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 1: We from the inside know that you did want to 294 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:18,880 Speaker 1: do Winter Games. I do well, and I wonder, I 295 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: honestly wonder this and I get it. Um everybody thinks 296 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: that being a bachelor is this great thing, and it 297 00:15:25,040 --> 00:15:27,800 Speaker 1: it is that has a ton opportunity to it. Life 298 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:30,440 Speaker 1: is enhanced and tremendous ways used to meet great people. 299 00:15:30,920 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: But I wonder if some of these guys and some 300 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:34,640 Speaker 1: of these girls go into it thinking it's going to 301 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: financially set them up for a long period of time, 302 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 1: and then they find out what the Bachelor and Bachelor 303 00:15:39,160 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: I actually kind of make. And I don't think the 304 00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 1: bachelor best be upset with me for saying this. They 305 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 1: don't want you to do it for monetary purposes. There 306 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: is they don't want to do in this by for 307 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: financial gains. Part of them not paying a lot is 308 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: to keep the focus on why you're there, and that's 309 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 1: for love. Now, granted it's about a small amount of it, 310 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:01,200 Speaker 1: it is enough for you to survive on. But the 311 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:04,840 Speaker 1: true reason to do the Bachelor where the bachelor is 312 00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:08,920 Speaker 1: to find love. It is not to get rich quick correct, correct? 313 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:12,240 Speaker 1: You know, it's kind of like the Presidency. They don't 314 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 1: make that much money, No, they but they but they 315 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:21,200 Speaker 1: make money from elsewhere, just like bachelor's and bachelorettes can do. 316 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 1: That's a great point, as I've never thought of it 317 00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 1: that way. They make money elsewhere the Presidency, you know, today, 318 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: maybe more than ever, the Presidency and the Bachelor Bacherette 319 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: feel one of the same. Yea, Well, we had a 320 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:41,560 Speaker 1: whole bunch of rapid fire questions that you guys love 321 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 1: and we love to do with Peter Button's Peter had 322 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,120 Speaker 1: to leave.

Well today, uh, 332 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: and what is this our second you know, off season episode, 333 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna ask each other some questions like as just said. 334 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:23,280 Speaker 1: So actually we got to know first concert Shania Twain 335 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 1: and I had to pee the entire time, like so badly. 336 00:17:28,600 --> 00:17:31,119 Speaker 1: But I was with my best friend, one of her 337 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:33,760 Speaker 1: other friends and her dad, and I didn't want to 338 00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 1: have to ask her dad to go to the bathroom 339 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 1: with me. And it was like this huge pavilion. So 340 00:17:38,560 --> 00:17:42,520 Speaker 1: I just sat there in just pain for hours and 341 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,760 Speaker 1: I couldn't enjoy it at all. What about you, what's 342 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: your first concert? Well, my my first concert was need 343 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:53,479 Speaker 1: to Breathe. I love Need to Breathe. They're great, uh 344 00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:56,760 Speaker 1: them and Brian Duncan. Brian Duncan is an old old 345 00:17:56,800 --> 00:18:00,840 Speaker 1: Christian artist. I grew up. I beviously with a family 346 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: who uh really love going to these like Christian festivals. 347 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:07,679 Speaker 1: And there's one and that used to be in Indiana 348 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,720 Speaker 1: called Pulse Fest. So these are kind of like my 349 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 1: ways of going to a concert a little different, i'd 350 00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: say the most kids, but I still remember it. They're 351 00:18:14,320 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: amazing experiences and I got to share them with my family, 352 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:19,880 Speaker 1: which is always a good memory that Actually, I gotta 353 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:23,800 Speaker 1: tell you, are you still Shania Twain fam. Yeah, um, 354 00:18:23,960 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: I love shanais plain. I have something super cool happening 355 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,680 Speaker 1: right now with Shani Twain. Shanaia Twain is in just 356 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 1: my coincidence, just by coincidence. Nothing finalized. We're in talk, 357 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 1: but Shanai Twain runs a really great organization called Kids, 358 00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:43,119 Speaker 1: and Shannai Kids is interested in partnering with Humanity and 359 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,359 Speaker 1: Hope United and Generous Coffee to build a school in 360 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: Central America. And so we're in talks right now to 361 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,040 Speaker 1: figure out how to make that happen, uh, to educate 362 00:18:52,119 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 1: some kids who typically would not get education. Super cool 363 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 1: and part first concert. Yeah, I just thought that was 364 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 1: going to say. Okay, second question to you, and I 365 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: think don't know the answer this, do you believe in 366 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: love at first sight? You know, for a hopeless romantic, 367 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: I wasn't really sold on him. I believed in lust 368 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: at first sight and all that. But I do have 369 00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: to say, back in Paradise to season two, when I 370 00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: did see Jared for the first time, I was a 371 00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: whole different experience in any other crush at first sight. 372 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,440 Speaker 1: So if I I think I believe it love on 373 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: first sight, I think I do. What about you? Well, no, 374 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,399 Speaker 1: you can't just have to follow up here, so we 375 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,200 Speaker 1: gotta slow down. Actually, I gotta know, and I don't 376 00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 1: know if I've ever asked you that. For anybody listening, 377 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 1: you gotta be honest with them. Did you love Jared? Yes? 378 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: Did you love well No? Would you say that Jared 379 00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 1: is your only love that you ever had in an 380 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 1: authentic way? Yes? I think I've been in love with 381 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:04,879 Speaker 1: the thought of someone or two before before I ever 382 00:20:04,960 --> 00:20:07,640 Speaker 1: met Jared. I think like that was a true love. 383 00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 1: I mean, that's kind of the thing. And I gotta 384 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: protect you a little bit here because I get a lot. 385 00:20:13,040 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: Is this you know? Oh, who's your coast? Actually many? 386 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,919 Speaker 1: Oh the girl that is just obsessed with you. Now, 387 00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 1: I don't think they think it's wrong here, but I 388 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:21,879 Speaker 1: think it looks like that at times when you just 389 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:24,080 Speaker 1: see to see a glimpse of it. But if you 390 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,000 Speaker 1: really break it down, you love this guy like this 391 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,880 Speaker 1: was a true love for you. This wasn't a TV 392 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 1: of session, This wasn't a crush. This was somebody that 393 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:38,399 Speaker 1: stole your heart. Yeah, I mean, how incredible Again, No 394 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: wonder this show has such a place for you and 395 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: that you continue to invest so much energy into it 396 00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 1: because I think there's more going on and this shows 397 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:48,920 Speaker 1: just to you and how it formed you as a 398 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 1: person than anybody truly understands as just a viewer for sure. 399 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: I mean, do you think Lauren was your second love? Um? 400 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:00,840 Speaker 1: I don't think I ever felt us. I would say 401 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,440 Speaker 1: I fell in love before Lauren. But I think with 402 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: Lauren there was a love and there was a commitment 403 00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:09,719 Speaker 1: that I had never tangibly felt before, Like I had 404 00:21:09,800 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 1: never looked at any other person that this is the 405 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: person I'm goinance in my life with. So I think 406 00:21:14,480 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 1: it was different. And the commitment side, maybe the feeling 407 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:19,920 Speaker 1: of love and the feeling of I am just I 408 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 1: would love, I would love to and like just wake 409 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: up every morning next to this person and see this 410 00:21:24,280 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: person and raised person that you know. That's a feeling, um. 411 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: But the commitment and the excitement beyond the commitment was 412 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: the first time I've ever felt that was Lauren. Okay, 413 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,760 Speaker 1: So I think I completely agree. I was in like 414 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: extreme lust, total obsession, like head over heels for the 415 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:47,520 Speaker 1: thought of someone before two people specifically, and then when 416 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,400 Speaker 1: I met Jared, I feel like that was my first 417 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:53,399 Speaker 1: adult love. Like I loved him for his flaws and 418 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:57,879 Speaker 1: for like all like all the things, Um. And what 419 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: really annoyed me during you know, watching that and the 420 00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,000 Speaker 1: second season of it was people being like, she's not 421 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: in love, She's just obsessed. This is just infatuation. And 422 00:22:08,840 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 1: actually Nick said it to me um on the season 423 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: that I was on with Nick, and he was like, 424 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 1: this isn't love, this is infatuation. I was like, you 425 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 1: have no right to tell me what I'm feeling. That 426 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:27,200 Speaker 1: is so annoying. You guys don't know the relationship that 427 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: is behind closed doors. So and for all our listeners 428 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: out there, I think this is the topic. This is 429 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: this actually, honestly is one of my favorite parts about 430 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: the off season is we get to really dive into people, 431 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:40,480 Speaker 1: into the reader theme or the listeners emails and and 432 00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:43,600 Speaker 1: take colors. If anybody out there is listening and they say, hey, 433 00:22:44,160 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: you know, we've felt this first love before, we felt 434 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,919 Speaker 1: that takeover feeling, the feeling that just kind of consumes 435 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 1: you and you do almost in a sense, lose yourself 436 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: and there you know you you you kind of feel 437 00:22:57,280 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 1: something you're nervous before. Please emails your story. We love 438 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 1: to read him. Dude, the uplifting email us. Your first 439 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:06,960 Speaker 1: love stories have been in Actley media dot com. Yeah, 440 00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:08,560 Speaker 1: we well, I mean I know I would. I would 441 00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,560 Speaker 1: spend a ton of time reading those first love stories. 442 00:23:10,560 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: I think it's it's just a beautiful depiction of life, 443 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,440 Speaker 1: is that first time you feel love. Yeah, I know 444 00:23:17,520 --> 00:23:19,280 Speaker 1: people are going to be like, well, what about Kevin? 445 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 1: With Kevin, I love him as a person, you know, 446 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,560 Speaker 1: I really love him as a person. Another thing that 447 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 1: gets such on my nerves is when people are like, 448 00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 1: that was a showman, so you know they just did 449 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: it for the cameras. No, it wasn't. I really liked him. 450 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: It was a crush. I liked him. We did for 451 00:23:36,200 --> 00:23:40,239 Speaker 1: three months. It was not something we did for the cameras. Um. 452 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 1: It's just like over time, you you find the incompatibilities. Well, 453 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,480 Speaker 1: and if anybody understands the truth that you know you're 454 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,560 Speaker 1: never gonna make everybody happy, and that you're going to 455 00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: pursue what you desire and what you like and people 456 00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:53,399 Speaker 1: are gonna criticize you and people are going to celebrate 457 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 1: you no matter what. It's if you know you felt 458 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 1: this love, your heart's been ripped out before you you've 459 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 1: shared emotion with people, you get it, and I think 460 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 1: that's just a good lesson almost in life is to 461 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,120 Speaker 1: pursue what you believe is right. To not let anybody 462 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,679 Speaker 1: in the in there in the critic slow you down. Um, 463 00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 1: to listen to the feedback. You know, you don't want 464 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 1: to continue on a path that is unhealthier, unwise, but 465 00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 1: pursue these things. And I think that's what you've done. 466 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:24,280 Speaker 1: You pursued love. And we got to see you fall 467 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: for somebody on Winter Games, and that's why everybody was 468 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: still happy about it. We got to see you happy, 469 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: and that's what we all want, uh, And that's what 470 00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: I think we saw with Jared and then that was 471 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:38,240 Speaker 1: ripped out from you on national television. M hmm. And 472 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,680 Speaker 1: all the relationships that you have lead to the person 473 00:24:41,760 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: you're supposed to be with. I do feel like each 474 00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: person is a little stone in your life that grows 475 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 1: you and develops you into the person that will find 476 00:24:52,440 --> 00:24:56,719 Speaker 1: the right match right right? So it does? It does. Actually, 477 00:24:56,720 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: I gotta ask you then, Um, with all these love 478 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,800 Speaker 1: connections and the things that have only shows and you 479 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,919 Speaker 1: now dating outside of the franchise, should a girl ever 480 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:12,800 Speaker 1: make the first move? Mm? Hmm, good question. Just depends 481 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:15,119 Speaker 1: on the guy who's on the receiving end of it. 482 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:18,119 Speaker 1: Some guys really like to be the pursuer, you know, 483 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: it's that fundamental primal thing or it's like they want 484 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,440 Speaker 1: to go hunt the girl. And then there's other guys 485 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: who find it really attractive when a girl makes the 486 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:29,280 Speaker 1: first move. It's gutsy and it shows confidence. So it 487 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,240 Speaker 1: really depends on what guy you're working with. What do 488 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 1: you think? I honestly, I'm very torn here. I think 489 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:36,680 Speaker 1: I don't think there's a right or wrong way to 490 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: do this. Now. I do believe that the man is 491 00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: should be the pursuer, not that first move. I don't. 492 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 1: I don't know, because you know, if somebody catches your 493 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: eye and you're a female, like you have like go 494 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 1: go tell that guy, like you know, we're all human here, 495 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 1: like we're all people. But I do think that both 496 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,439 Speaker 1: parties should pursue each other. But I think the man 497 00:25:58,560 --> 00:26:00,600 Speaker 1: needs to be intentional in his pursue of a woman. 498 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:03,080 Speaker 1: I think it is his responsibility to make sure that 499 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: that woman feels cared for, appreciated, attractive. Um and uh, 500 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:15,000 Speaker 1: it's loved on all the time. Uh and loved on, 501 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: not just like he fall in love with there, but 502 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: that they need to feel that you love them, even 503 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 1: if it's just as a person. So I think both 504 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: can make the first move. But I do think that 505 00:26:23,480 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 1: it is the man's role afterwards to make sure that 506 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 1: he is a support system for the female. And but 507 00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,320 Speaker 1: I'm not a female, so I can't speak for them, 508 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: but I would like to say, you know that the 509 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:37,959 Speaker 1: woman needs to feel the same way that they need 510 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 1: to pursue the man, that that they need to make 511 00:26:40,040 --> 00:26:42,800 Speaker 1: sure to that man it knows that they care for Um, 512 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: that's what data is, right, It's a it's a relationship. 513 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:49,879 Speaker 1: There's no it's a mutual interaction between two people. Right. 514 00:26:50,000 --> 00:26:55,359 Speaker 1: I feel like in my experience it's it's probably best 515 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 1: I don't want to say play hard to get, but 516 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,840 Speaker 1: for the girl to just take it easy and sit 517 00:27:00,920 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: back and relax for the for the start of it. 518 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,640 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, I know people are going to give 519 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:09,760 Speaker 1: me crap for that, but let's be real. Most guys 520 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: like to come to the girl well you know, but 521 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 1: actually there's there's a few things I want to ask 522 00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 1: you about there, because through this podcast we've got to 523 00:27:21,960 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 1: know each other lot better you've been around me, Like, 524 00:27:24,760 --> 00:27:29,639 Speaker 1: you're really bad at having the guy come to you. No, no, no, no, 525 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna I'm gonna actually say I struggle with 526 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,440 Speaker 1: that first interaction. I love the post first interaction. I'm 527 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: great at that. I mean, I really enjoy the digging 528 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: into life and the sharing life to that. I love 529 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 1: that part. I am really bad at those first few interactions. 530 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: I get very nervous still this day when it comes 531 00:27:48,040 --> 00:27:51,359 Speaker 1: to if I see some somebody that around town, if 532 00:27:51,400 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 1: I just see somebody that I I'm into, I'm really 533 00:27:54,240 --> 00:27:57,239 Speaker 1: bad approaching them. I actually, do you want to hear 534 00:27:57,320 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 1: something crazy? I know how to think about it. I 535 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,840 Speaker 1: don't remember one time that I approached a woman for 536 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,680 Speaker 1: the first time. I think it's been like in group 537 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:09,640 Speaker 1: settings where we've happened to like bounce off. But when 538 00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,800 Speaker 1: I've never approached somebody that I've seen and introduced myself to, 539 00:28:14,760 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: um randomly, never done it. You know what's funny. I 540 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: think that guys really are very nurvous about making the 541 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:24,159 Speaker 1: first move, and I think it's totally fine for the 542 00:28:24,240 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: girl to make the first move, But after that move, 543 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: after you've gotten his attention, then it's time to sort 544 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 1: of sit back and see what he does about it. 545 00:28:32,000 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: Um and Ben, I think that you are not in 546 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: even the minority there. I think most guys would say. 547 00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: There is something about today's society that has made guys 548 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,040 Speaker 1: even more scared about going up to girls. I feel 549 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: like what you know, back in our parents day, it 550 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 1: would the girl would barely ever go up to the guy. 551 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 1: The guy was totally expected to make the first move. 552 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 1: But now now I feel like it's fifty fifty and 553 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:58,920 Speaker 1: it really relieves the guy. If if you guys are 554 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: making eyes at each other from cross the room, if 555 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:02,960 Speaker 1: the girl just goes as, goes ahead and does it, 556 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:08,239 Speaker 1: you guys, are you are thankful? Yeah, definitely, I mean, 557 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,400 Speaker 1: and it relieves a lot of stuff. I don't know 558 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: what it is, though, I'd have to think back and 559 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: maybe next week episode I could tell you. But I 560 00:29:15,720 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: have this like fear of approaching a woman who I 561 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: was into and and her looking at me was in 562 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:24,520 Speaker 1: laughing like that. That is like something that I think 563 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:26,320 Speaker 1: about When you said that, I like, I have a 564 00:29:26,440 --> 00:29:28,480 Speaker 1: picture in my head right now me walking up to 565 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,200 Speaker 1: somebody saying hey, I'm I'm I'm interested or high my name, 566 00:29:32,240 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: spin or whatever you say in that first interaction and 567 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,680 Speaker 1: her turning around and just laughing, And I think that 568 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: would crush me. And I can imagine that's happened to 569 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:43,160 Speaker 1: many people out there before. UM, if you're listening right 570 00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 1: now and you've had a really bad first interaction, if 571 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,880 Speaker 1: you've ever felt that, like just emptiness or the frustration, 572 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: or just felt kind of picked after that first meeting, 573 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 1: emails your story. I don't want to feel alone here. 574 00:29:57,920 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: I know I'm not the only one. Actually, I gotta 575 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,600 Speaker 1: ask you something, okay, because I remember this a few 576 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:05,720 Speaker 1: few weeks ago, and I gotta be honest. I I'm 577 00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: not familiar with it. I don't typically like I try 578 00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: to say it's politically correct or try to walk in 579 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:14,520 Speaker 1: a lane as possible. I got a tweet and I'm 580 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 1: sure our listeners could fill in and they will and 581 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:18,560 Speaker 1: they should. Um a couple of weeks ago when I 582 00:30:18,640 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: said female and they said that's derogatory and it's no 583 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 1: longer accepted, is right true? Am I am I missing 584 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 1: something because I said it earlier. I said it and 585 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 1: I realized I said it, and I stopped myself and 586 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 1: I thought, Okay, somebody has said that's no longer appropriate, 587 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: and I never knew that, and I think that's learning. Yeah, 588 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: that I I'm learning things that are no longer appropriate 589 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 1: that I say mostly due to this podcast, which I appreciated, 590 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,479 Speaker 1: because now I'm I'm more politically correct than ever. I mean, 591 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying, we don't want you to get more politically correct, Ben, 592 00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: We've created a whole segment Ben bitches because you're too 593 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 1: politically correct. Sometimes. Um okay, I wouldn't think that it's 594 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:03,880 Speaker 1: taboo or not politically correct to say females, but I 595 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 1: will say it sounds a little bit like animals. It's 596 00:31:08,280 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 1: like it's it's more animalistic. It doesn't sound like they're humans. 597 00:31:11,920 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 1: It sounds like they're a species. M interesting. Well, I mean, 598 00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,800 Speaker 1: I guess again, if you're listening and you have any 599 00:31:17,840 --> 00:31:19,680 Speaker 1: insight into this, actually no, I mean actually I don't 600 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 1: think you're wrong there. I get what you're saying, but 601 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:24,239 Speaker 1: we don't know. We're guessing and we're assuming. Please uh 602 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:27,960 Speaker 1: tweet us, email us, make sure you tag the podcast, 603 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: because uh, if you're going to criticize this, mother as 604 00:31:30,480 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: will promote the podcast, you're doing it. So I can't 605 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:38,960 Speaker 1: imagine myself saying males, males, really males, say the men, 606 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: the men. Then two more questions. Actually, we're talking about love, 607 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,720 Speaker 1: We're talking about life. We hope you find love one day. 608 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:50,320 Speaker 1: I root for you in that. I know you root 609 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: for me doing the same. When you find love, and 610 00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 1: you when you look at that guy in the eyes, 611 00:31:55,080 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: and and and there a little twinkle, and the moment 612 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:00,800 Speaker 1: comes where the conversation has to happen about what your 613 00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 1: features entailed. Do you want kids? Of course I want kids. 614 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 1: I mean I want two to three. I have to 615 00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,040 Speaker 1: have to. What stresses me out is because my sister 616 00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: and I are so close that I feel like I 617 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 1: need two of the same sex. So I'm gonna want 618 00:32:17,960 --> 00:32:19,960 Speaker 1: two boys or two girls. But the thing is, I 619 00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:22,080 Speaker 1: definitely need a girl. So if I were to have 620 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 1: two boys, I'm not and people are gonna be like, 621 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 1: oh my god, I hate her, right, I literally would 622 00:32:27,080 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 1: think I need to gender select the third girl. Really yeah, 623 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,400 Speaker 1: because like I need Yeah, I mean, I think, I think, 624 00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,920 Speaker 1: I'm I think I may. I don't know. I really 625 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,840 Speaker 1: just I can't even imagine myself being It would be 626 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 1: like all my little day dreams ever since I was 627 00:32:45,040 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 1: a little kid thinking about having kids, like I need 628 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 1: to play with a girl and play dress up and 629 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:53,360 Speaker 1: play princesses and barbies and have a little playhouse and 630 00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 1: all that you have to be. I mean, I don't 631 00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:03,560 Speaker 1: be raising boys like I can imagine a little boy like. 632 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 1: It doesn't quite make sense to me, and I don't 633 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:10,800 Speaker 1: process that well. Ideally, this is ideal, and nobody can 634 00:33:10,920 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 1: choose this. I mean technically, actually you can choose it, 635 00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,560 Speaker 1: but that's not the way I'm going to do it. Um. 636 00:33:15,600 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 1: I would love to have the oldest boy and then 637 00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:22,920 Speaker 1: two younger girls. Yes, protection or why? Um. I like 638 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 1: the thought of having an older brother. I wonder how 639 00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: my life today would have been if I had an 640 00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:34,000 Speaker 1: older brother kind of assimilating me into male life. Men, men, 641 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Like, I think I would 642 00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,120 Speaker 1: be a lot more comfortable. I think I would have 643 00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,640 Speaker 1: grown up faster. I would have been able to socialize 644 00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,880 Speaker 1: with them completely differently, and I'd like to have that 645 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 1: for my girls. And I also love the fact of 646 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 1: a boy being there in high school in the hallways 647 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: for protection of the girls and always looking out for them. Um. 648 00:33:52,880 --> 00:33:55,560 Speaker 1: And I think that most guys want a son, and 649 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,520 Speaker 1: so I want to have a son from my husband, 650 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,960 Speaker 1: and I think that would be like the perfect little combination. 651 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,280 Speaker 1: But if I have two girls, I may just stick 652 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,600 Speaker 1: with the two girls, unless he's dying for a boy, 653 00:34:06,640 --> 00:34:10,040 Speaker 1: in which we could do vice versa. My parents, my 654 00:34:10,400 --> 00:34:13,760 Speaker 1: dad especially, always wanted to be a dad of girls, 655 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 1: never wanted a boy, and they didn't try to have 656 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:20,279 Speaker 1: a third kid because they didn't want to risk it 657 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 1: being a boy.

And it just sucks. But people keep saying, like, 838 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 1: you're gonna start seeing it when you're thirty. So you know, 839 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,920 Speaker 1: I had that magical age turn a couple of weeks ago, 840 00:43:43,200 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: So A'm I gonna start seeing it any day now, 841 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:47,600 Speaker 1: Like all of a sudden, the core muffin that I'm 842 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,560 Speaker 1: munching on during this is just gonna go straight to 843 00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,480 Speaker 1: my stomach. And like another thing is I know that 844 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: when I eat dinner, Holy crap, when I have dinner 845 00:43:56,800 --> 00:44:00,280 Speaker 1: like it's something really fried or it really and honestly 846 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:03,360 Speaker 1: anything like that's on the salad, my stomach gets gigantic. 847 00:44:03,440 --> 00:44:06,399 Speaker 1: We call it my alien and then my aliens there, 848 00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 1: and then I go to bed and then I wake 849 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:09,759 Speaker 1: up with my stomach that were flat again.

Age happens. 855 00:44:25,880 --> 00:44:29,360 Speaker 1: Time is one thing that is uncontrollable, controllable. We have 856 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: to get healthy. We have to start healthy habits. I 857 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:34,400 Speaker 1: mean we have to.

I think that's the beauty of being 860 00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 1: a kid is you can be a little irresponsible, you 861 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,000 Speaker 1: can make huge mistakes. You can you can eat what 862 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:44,279 Speaker 1: you want and do what you want, and you get 863 00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:46,359 Speaker 1: tons of times just to hang out with friends. As 864 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,800 Speaker 1: we get older, UM, we have to prepare for the 865 00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,120 Speaker 1: future generation.

A lot of jokes being played, a 897 00:46:24,080 --> 00:46:26,799 Speaker 1: lot of being had. I didn't throw one out there 898 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:28,440 Speaker 1: for the first time in a while, just because honestly, 899 00:46:28,440 --> 00:46:31,200 Speaker 1: I'd forgotten to think about it. Our poor guy Ari 900 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:34,160 Speaker 1: can't win one. I mean, I I don't. Oh my god, 901 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,560 Speaker 1: I feel like this is a podcaster. I'm gonna get 902 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:42,520 Speaker 1: a whole bunch of trouble you guys, but our guy, 903 00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 1: are you okay? We don't Hey, Ari, let me be clear, 904 00:46:45,280 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 1: I don't hate Ari. I think he made some really 905 00:46:47,880 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: big mistakes in The Bachelor. I don't. I don't think 906 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:54,200 Speaker 1: that he was the best bachelor we've ever had. His 907 00:46:54,320 --> 00:46:56,920 Speaker 1: season obviously wasn't the most watchable season we've ever had. 908 00:46:57,239 --> 00:46:59,480 Speaker 1: But he found love, and so if that's what we 909 00:46:59,520 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 1: want to great. But the guy, obviously, and we all 910 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:04,960 Speaker 1: know this, nobody can deny that he wasn't the most 911 00:47:05,040 --> 00:47:07,960 Speaker 1: love bachelor. People gave him a lot of crap. Uh. 912 00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 1: They weren't the biggest fans of him for for a 913 00:47:11,000 --> 00:47:13,880 Speaker 1: whole different list of reasons. I don't know at this 914 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 1: point if he's just given up and he just said, 915 00:47:15,680 --> 00:47:18,160 Speaker 1: you know, I'm just gonna go and and be disliked. 916 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:21,000 Speaker 1: But yesterday, if you haven't seen, on Twitter, Ari and 917 00:47:21,080 --> 00:47:23,879 Speaker 1: Lauren posted a picture. But it looks like Ari's hands 918 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 1: around Lauren's stomach and it makes it look like they 919 00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:29,759 Speaker 1: have an announcement that they're having a baby. Well, people 920 00:47:29,800 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 1: obviously react because uh, some people can't get pregnant, they're 921 00:47:33,680 --> 00:47:35,360 Speaker 1: not fertile, and they and they want to have a baby, 922 00:47:36,200 --> 00:47:37,600 Speaker 1: and they can't, so they took a fence to it. 923 00:47:37,680 --> 00:47:39,440 Speaker 1: Others were saying, oh, you should take a fence, it's 924 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,800 Speaker 1: a joke and taple fools whatever. But I mean, the 925 00:47:42,960 --> 00:47:45,359 Speaker 1: majority of people were not a fan of his joke, 926 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:48,040 Speaker 1: his joke at all. A lot of people were very 927 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 1: up that Actually, I want to hear your your thoughts 928 00:47:50,560 --> 00:47:52,799 Speaker 1: on this, and and my fault question that is has 929 00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:56,759 Speaker 1: already just given up. Um. So yeah, I like I'm saying, 930 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:58,480 Speaker 1: I feel like I'm getting a lot of trouble for 931 00:47:58,560 --> 00:48:05,239 Speaker 1: things I said today. I think people really really overreacted 932 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:09,400 Speaker 1: about that. I mean, you guys, we can't be we 933 00:48:09,520 --> 00:48:14,439 Speaker 1: can't take everything like everything can't disturb people and make 934 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:16,840 Speaker 1: them sad. Like we have to be able to like 935 00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:19,880 Speaker 1: brush some things off as jokes these days. That's like 936 00:48:20,040 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 1: saying that, yes, of course there's so many people okay 937 00:48:22,280 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 1: a pregnant, it's like the saddest thing ever. But that's 938 00:48:25,160 --> 00:48:28,800 Speaker 1: like saying that people who are pregnant can't walk around 939 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:31,399 Speaker 1: and show their baby bump because it may make them sad. 940 00:48:33,600 --> 00:48:36,000 Speaker 1: So you're just saying that we're way too sensive. And 941 00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people so I think, so 942 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 1: what this people was way too sensitive. If that's going 943 00:48:41,480 --> 00:48:46,680 Speaker 1: to make somebody who is having fertility issues really sad, 944 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot of other things that are going to 945 00:48:49,640 --> 00:48:53,800 Speaker 1: make them really sad too. Yeah, I don't know. I 946 00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 1: think they will totally over reacted. I think that it 947 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 1: was another bachelor. I think it was another bachelor, people 948 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:03,480 Speaker 1: wouldn't have cause such an up. Poor m I mean, actually, 949 00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: you're completely entuth to your opinion, and I think your 950 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: opinion is probably similar to a lot of people that 951 00:49:08,080 --> 00:49:09,759 Speaker 1: I mean, I think it's split the peace of to you. 952 00:49:09,840 --> 00:49:12,160 Speaker 1: Either I think people are reacted or you think, no, 953 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:14,320 Speaker 1: they didn't and this pictures should have been posted. You're 954 00:49:14,320 --> 00:49:16,040 Speaker 1: not alone in this. You're obviously going to get people 955 00:49:16,040 --> 00:49:18,719 Speaker 1: that disagree with you. That's fine, that's why. But we 956 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 1: have to be able to share opinions. If we don't 957 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,480 Speaker 1: share opinions on this podcast, what else we got? I mean, 958 00:49:23,800 --> 00:49:26,800 Speaker 1: you know, it's we're talking about things in reality television. 959 00:49:27,040 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: If reality television is and controversial in itself, like I 960 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 1: don't know what it and so I you know, I 961 00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:34,560 Speaker 1: kind of say more in the middle. I get that 962 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:36,919 Speaker 1: it was just an awkward joke and a sensory That's 963 00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 1: how I say, I understand that we were way too sensitive. 964 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:41,800 Speaker 1: I don't think we need to be that sensitive. I 965 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:44,800 Speaker 1: don't think they were doing anything too intentional. You know, 966 00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: we always think about the intention behind it, and the 967 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,759 Speaker 1: intention behind it was not to offend a large group 968 00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:53,560 Speaker 1: of people. That was not his intention. But I will 969 00:49:53,600 --> 00:49:56,680 Speaker 1: say that the joke was awkward. Can I say that, 970 00:49:56,800 --> 00:50:00,400 Speaker 1: like just weird? Totally awkward and just for a couple 971 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 1: that is still so touchy that people still have such 972 00:50:03,840 --> 00:50:08,359 Speaker 1: issues with them, it is probably not the smartest You've 973 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:11,120 Speaker 1: come up with so many other things that was almost 974 00:50:11,200 --> 00:50:15,279 Speaker 1: cliche of them. I I completely agree, And you know, 975 00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:17,760 Speaker 1: I wonder the world, like, what is their thought process 976 00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:19,279 Speaker 1: right now when it comes to life? I mean, I 977 00:50:19,520 --> 00:50:22,840 Speaker 1: mean I would have blame them if I saw an 978 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: article written and said, oh, you know, another mistake from 979 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,839 Speaker 1: the most hated bachelor couple in the history of the back. 980 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:29,239 Speaker 1: So now I don't want to claim they are that. 981 00:50:29,320 --> 00:50:30,799 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know that. I don't have data. 982 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 1: That's not scientific. That's just an opinion of some of 983 00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:38,000 Speaker 1: a journalist. But I wonder at this point, because they 984 00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:42,200 Speaker 1: felt so much, um just heat and hate and anger, 985 00:50:42,840 --> 00:50:44,759 Speaker 1: um from the show. If they've just kind of given 986 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: up and they're just like, you know what, I don't 987 00:50:46,160 --> 00:50:47,839 Speaker 1: care if people like us and we're just gonna keep 988 00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 1: doing our thing, um and and I just wonder where 989 00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:53,880 Speaker 1: they're at right now in life. I mean, they have 990 00:50:54,120 --> 00:51:00,920 Speaker 1: to feel a little isolated from from the popular bachelor family.

I met this 1268 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:33,640 Speaker 1: guy a little over three weeks ago. We've gone on 1269 01:06:33,800 --> 01:06:36,920 Speaker 1: four dates now, with the last one being an elaborate 1270 01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:40,200 Speaker 1: all weekend date where he planned an all out, whole 1271 01:06:40,360 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 1: weekend for us.

Mentally, we click and we have some chemistry. Interesting, 1275 01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:59,919 Speaker 1: but it's not bombastic chemistry on my end, I would 1276 01:07:00,040 --> 01:07:04,080 Speaker 1: say it's about chemistry with him on my side. I've 1277 01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:07,200 Speaker 1: never done this before, and it's always been an all 1278 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:10,760 Speaker 1: or nothing thing for me. However, I know that they 1279 01:07:10,840 --> 01:07:13,320 Speaker 1: say that chemistry can grow, and I wonder if I 1280 01:07:13,320 --> 01:07:14,880 Speaker 1: should give it a few more dates to see how 1281 01:07:14,920 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 1: the chemistry really blossoms for me, or if I should 1282 01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,640 Speaker 1: just cut it off now.

But for me, I can get really nervous. 1290 01:07:50,080 --> 01:07:52,720 Speaker 1: So sometimes I do need to form a friendship first, 1291 01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:55,040 Speaker 1: um or I need to just spend a little bit 1292 01:07:55,120 --> 01:07:58,280 Speaker 1: extra time with him before he can see the real me. UM. 1293 01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:02,520 Speaker 1: But I death really think if you've been on, you've 1294 01:08:02,560 --> 01:08:06,520 Speaker 1: been with him for about three weeks. I think at 1295 01:08:06,560 --> 01:08:12,400 Speaker 1: this point you're probably at the you're at You're at 1296 01:08:12,440 --> 01:08:15,840 Speaker 1: the decision point. So if you're only feeling sixty five 1297 01:08:16,360 --> 01:08:20,400 Speaker 1: chemistry at this point, I'm gonna say give it one 1298 01:08:20,479 --> 01:08:25,919 Speaker 1: more date to really make sure that you feel secure 1299 01:08:26,080 --> 01:08:29,679 Speaker 1: in making the breakup decision, because if you're just feeling 1300 01:08:30,120 --> 01:08:32,559 Speaker 1: mad right now, I don't think it's going to get 1301 01:08:32,680 --> 01:08:36,679 Speaker 1: much better after this. I mean, I think I think 1302 01:08:37,080 --> 01:08:42,600 Speaker 1: there's a difference between friends becoming lovers and you know, 1303 01:08:43,080 --> 01:08:46,640 Speaker 1: your relationship evolving over time. But I think even with 1304 01:08:46,720 --> 01:08:49,439 Speaker 1: those people who started out as friends and it evolved 1305 01:08:49,439 --> 01:08:52,280 Speaker 1: into more, they had a sort they had a chemistry 1306 01:08:52,520 --> 01:08:56,960 Speaker 1: in the beginning. It sounds like you're not mentally you 1307 01:08:57,080 --> 01:08:59,200 Speaker 1: say that you have a you say, you go, you go, 1308 01:08:59,439 --> 01:09:04,639 Speaker 1: we have sub mentally you click and we have some kindustry. 1309 01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:09,160 Speaker 1: I don't know. I feel like you need to be 1310 01:09:09,240 --> 01:09:11,960 Speaker 1: pretty sparky at this point if you are not feeling it, 1311 01:09:12,680 --> 01:09:14,640 Speaker 1: If you're not feeling sparks right now, I don't think 1312 01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:17,800 Speaker 1: you're ever going to feel sparks. I don't even know. 1313 01:09:18,160 --> 01:09:23,559 Speaker 1: Mentally we clicked means honestly like that, like emotionally Does 1314 01:09:23,600 --> 01:09:28,680 Speaker 1: that mean like No, that means mentally like through like 1315 01:09:28,880 --> 01:09:32,240 Speaker 1: what do you call that? H E sp what what 1316 01:09:32,280 --> 01:09:35,080 Speaker 1: do you call it? When you like can connect with Yes, Yeah, 1317 01:09:35,600 --> 01:09:38,519 Speaker 1: that's when when you're reading each other's minds. Okay, well 1318 01:09:38,520 --> 01:09:42,360 Speaker 1: I don't um. I know actually from my I can 1319 01:09:42,439 --> 01:09:45,200 Speaker 1: really only speak from experience and from my friends experiences 1320 01:09:45,200 --> 01:09:49,120 Speaker 1: that I've been LSC. I have never been around a 1321 01:09:49,240 --> 01:09:52,200 Speaker 1: couple who has dated for let's say more than a 1322 01:09:52,280 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 1: few weeks and they were questioning the chemistry, or if 1323 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:58,360 Speaker 1: one of them was questioned the chemistry and that they 1324 01:09:58,479 --> 01:10:01,920 Speaker 1: ended up being together long term. I've never been that 1325 01:10:02,160 --> 01:10:04,160 Speaker 1: drastic of a twitch. If you're like, I'm just not 1326 01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:06,519 Speaker 1: that into him, I'm not really feeing it. I've spent 1327 01:10:06,640 --> 01:10:09,240 Speaker 1: some quality time with the guy. You know, he's great. 1328 01:10:09,320 --> 01:10:10,920 Speaker 1: He treats me so well. It's not like he's doing 1329 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 1: anything like wrong. It's just I'm not feeling I'm I 1330 01:10:15,160 --> 01:10:17,400 Speaker 1: have never heard and I think it can't happen. I 1331 01:10:17,400 --> 01:10:21,120 Speaker 1: would just say, uh, percentages is it's going to not 1332 01:10:21,240 --> 01:10:25,479 Speaker 1: work out? Okay, you guys. I feel like over the 1333 01:10:25,560 --> 01:10:30,720 Speaker 1: past couple of months, I've been kind of keeping to 1334 01:10:30,840 --> 01:10:33,759 Speaker 1: myself a lot of my experiences because it does affect 1335 01:10:33,800 --> 01:10:35,920 Speaker 1: so many people out there, because like they're part of 1336 01:10:35,960 --> 01:10:38,680 Speaker 1: the conversation as well. But I'll let you in a 1337 01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:42,160 Speaker 1: little bit here. I remember when I visited Kevin in 1338 01:10:42,320 --> 01:10:45,880 Speaker 1: Canada for the first and only time. Actually I had 1339 01:10:45,920 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 1: known him for a month at that point, and I 1340 01:10:48,120 --> 01:10:49,880 Speaker 1: met my sister at the airport because we were going 1341 01:10:49,920 --> 01:10:52,639 Speaker 1: to go down We're going on a vacation right from 1342 01:10:52,760 --> 01:10:55,920 Speaker 1: the Toronto airport, and she's like, how do you feel? 1343 01:10:56,000 --> 01:10:57,800 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I like him. I like him, but 1344 01:10:58,360 --> 01:11:01,920 Speaker 1: it's been four weeks and I don't feel at all 1345 01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:04,479 Speaker 1: like I'm falling in love. Should I feel like I'm 1346 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:06,439 Speaker 1: falling in love at this point or at least like 1347 01:11:06,680 --> 01:11:09,120 Speaker 1: that I can see a future? And I was like, 1348 01:11:09,160 --> 01:11:11,800 Speaker 1: and I don't know. I think I should feel like 1349 01:11:12,920 --> 01:11:15,519 Speaker 1: falling but I'm not. And I think that that was 1350 01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:16,960 Speaker 1: a point where I knew it wasn't going to be 1351 01:11:17,040 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 1: a long term thing. Well as I also don't think 1352 01:11:19,960 --> 01:11:22,720 Speaker 1: you need to put the pressure on yourself to get 1353 01:11:22,760 --> 01:11:24,120 Speaker 1: to a certain spot of a certain times. I think, 1354 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:26,400 Speaker 1: but don't you think that after a month you should 1355 01:11:26,400 --> 01:11:28,560 Speaker 1: be like I'm feeling head over heels, not just like 1356 01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:32,640 Speaker 1: I like him, I have a crush. Yeah, I mean 1357 01:11:32,680 --> 01:11:34,439 Speaker 1: I do. I think I think the truth is, if 1358 01:11:34,439 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 1: we're to summarize Megan's question right, there is this, Um, Megan, 1359 01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:42,040 Speaker 1: I would say to be concerned. I'm not saying in 1360 01:11:42,160 --> 01:11:44,080 Speaker 1: it right now. I'm not saying this is this is 1361 01:11:44,120 --> 01:11:46,479 Speaker 1: a lost cause, but it would be a major concern 1362 01:11:46,600 --> 01:11:49,040 Speaker 1: for me if you feel this lack of chemistry with 1363 01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:51,519 Speaker 1: this guy after that much time and after that much 1364 01:11:51,560 --> 01:11:54,120 Speaker 1: time together. Um, I think if we're all very honest, 1365 01:11:54,160 --> 01:11:55,400 Speaker 1: and this is one of the hardest things to do 1366 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:58,160 Speaker 1: in life, is to break up and and and the 1367 01:11:58,280 --> 01:12:02,040 Speaker 1: split and saying goodbye to some it just not even 1368 01:12:02,080 --> 01:12:03,920 Speaker 1: to break up for them. They've only been together for 1369 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:06,560 Speaker 1: three weeks, and I think it's easier if you're not 1370 01:12:06,640 --> 01:12:08,640 Speaker 1: feeling it to just break it off now, especially for 1371 01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:13,760 Speaker 1: thirty Like why continue to prolong it? Yeah, I just 1372 01:12:14,400 --> 01:12:16,360 Speaker 1: just know that that the percentages are probably not on 1373 01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,960 Speaker 1: your side, and that actually I both agree at some 1374 01:12:19,120 --> 01:12:22,200 Speaker 1: point this will end, and it just matters when. Um, 1375 01:12:22,680 --> 01:12:24,840 Speaker 1: you aren't going to be getting married being into this 1376 01:12:24,960 --> 01:12:28,559 Speaker 1: guy at least I wouldn't assume so. But if you were, 1377 01:12:29,720 --> 01:12:34,160 Speaker 1: actually you could do Oh my gosh, she could do Zola. 1378 01:12:34,520 --> 01:12:37,920 Speaker 1: Zola is the wedding company that will do anything for love. 1379 01:12:38,479 --> 01:12:42,960 Speaker 1: They're reinventing wedding planning and the registry experience to make 1380 01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:48,240 Speaker 1: it the happiest moment in couples lives even happier, from 1381 01:12:48,320 --> 01:12:51,599 Speaker 1: engagement to wedding and decorating for your first home.

At most, the difference from 1454 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:18,519 Speaker 1: the first person getting off the plane to the last 1455 01:17:18,560 --> 01:17:21,479 Speaker 1: person getting off the plane it's ten minutes. But for 1456 01:17:21,680 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 1: some reason, every time there's the person behind me that 1457 01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:29,040 Speaker 1: feels like it is their right to walk in the 1458 01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:32,439 Speaker 1: aisle and stand there at my feet as I try 1459 01:17:32,479 --> 01:17:35,479 Speaker 1: to get off. There's an order here. There's an order 1460 01:17:35,520 --> 01:17:39,680 Speaker 1: in life. Lines were created for order. So if there 1461 01:17:39,800 --> 01:17:43,760 Speaker 1: is an order, there's a set way the process to 1462 01:17:43,840 --> 01:17:46,639 Speaker 1: a line, especially on a plane where there's no place 1463 01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:48,680 Speaker 1: to go. I can't even brought in front of you 1464 01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:52,720 Speaker 1: because you're already standing there. Wait until the person in 1465 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:55,759 Speaker 1: front of you leave their seats, stands in the aisle, 1466 01:17:56,280 --> 01:18:01,200 Speaker 1: grab their bags, walks forward until you take those steps 1467 01:18:01,640 --> 01:18:04,320 Speaker 1: that location. It's the same thing in life. Let's look 1468 01:18:04,360 --> 01:18:07,160 Speaker 1: at this in a figure picture. Okay, we all got 1469 01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:08,880 Speaker 1: a role to play, we've all got a purpose to 1470 01:18:08,960 --> 01:18:13,200 Speaker 1: be had, we're all pursuing something. Okay, But there's gonna 1471 01:18:13,200 --> 01:18:15,160 Speaker 1: be those times that you have to stand in line 1472 01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:17,080 Speaker 1: because you don't know what that line is gonna bring. 1473 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:20,439 Speaker 1: That line might mean you wait a few extra months 1474 01:18:20,479 --> 01:18:23,120 Speaker 1: to pursue that opportunity because it's just right and it 1475 01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:27,280 Speaker 1: fits you well. Being in a hurry doesn't exactly progress 1476 01:18:27,320 --> 01:18:30,040 Speaker 1: you forward. It just makes you rush through the moments 1477 01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 1: that we may never remember, may never have. Take time 1478 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:37,040 Speaker 1: to invest your relationships. Stand in that line, look around, you, 1479 01:18:37,240 --> 01:18:39,400 Speaker 1: take a deep breath, and when it comes to a 1480 01:18:39,439 --> 01:18:41,800 Speaker 1: plane and you're sitting next to me, wait your turn. 1481 01:18:43,280 --> 01:18:47,559 Speaker 1: Then are you a minister? Ben bitches is now becoming 1482 01:18:47,600 --> 01:18:51,320 Speaker 1: a ministry because he's got a message to his bitching. 1483 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:57,600 Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, hey Ben, Yeah, I do find that 1484 01:18:57,720 --> 01:19:01,640 Speaker 1: airports are the place in the world where people are 1485 01:19:01,680 --> 01:19:05,280 Speaker 1: their most oblivious. They really have no idea who's in 1486 01:19:05,439 --> 01:19:07,880 Speaker 1: front of them, are behind them at that point. It's 1487 01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:11,200 Speaker 1: the time is all in their own head. They're not 1488 01:19:11,360 --> 01:19:16,280 Speaker 1: realizing that like there's somebody struggling behind them, or that 1489 01:19:16,760 --> 01:19:19,640 Speaker 1: somebody has I don't know, maybe I'm I'm contradicting you, 1490 01:19:19,800 --> 01:19:23,479 Speaker 1: but what if somebody has connecting flights to catch and 1491 01:19:23,520 --> 01:19:25,439 Speaker 1: they do have to be like I gotta go, I 1492 01:19:25,479 --> 01:19:28,920 Speaker 1: gotta go. Then what when you ask nicely say hey, 1493 01:19:28,960 --> 01:19:31,840 Speaker 1: I'm in a hurry, do you mind if I take 1494 01:19:31,920 --> 01:19:34,800 Speaker 1: your play in this line so it's understood that you 1495 01:19:34,960 --> 01:19:38,160 Speaker 1: are taking the place mine and I'm able to tell 1496 01:19:38,240 --> 01:19:40,479 Speaker 1: you communicate with you. Yes, that is okay. Or maybe 1497 01:19:40,560 --> 01:19:42,479 Speaker 1: it is not okay because maybe I have its neckting 1498 01:19:42,560 --> 01:19:44,320 Speaker 1: fight as well, and I just might be a little 1499 01:19:44,760 --> 01:19:48,479 Speaker 1: more patient. Actually, you're right, airports are crazy place. I 1500 01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:50,840 Speaker 1: cannot imagine four years ago or three years ago, if 1501 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:53,880 Speaker 1: I would have seen saw Astley I can Eddie walking airport, 1502 01:19:53,880 --> 01:19:56,920 Speaker 1: I would have flipped out.
