Speaker 1: Hello, Hi, how are you. I'm doing good? How are you?

Speaker 1: All the time.

00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 3: Well, the company, yeah, we Met through Italia, was birth

9
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 3: for my name. I feel like I was born to

10
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 3: do this.

11
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:38,840
Speaker 2: Oh that you are companies called we Met?

12
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, the company is called we Met through Italian. It's

13
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: my last name.

14
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:44,680
Speaker 2: Oh that's brilliant. Okay, I didn't know that. I just

15
00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 2: because I didn't know how to pronounce your last name.

16
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,159
Speaker 2: I guess it is like French like we met, but

17
00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:52,800
Speaker 2: it's wow. Okay, Well that's interesting. We met through Talia. Okay.

18
00:00:52,840 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: So you are a high end matchmaker, which is a

19
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 2: fascinating business. Would you call yourself a high end matchmaker?

20
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:04,559
Speaker 1: Yes, of course, it's only high end, only.

21
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,400
Speaker 2: High end matchmaking. Okay. So do you ever get any

22
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 2: pushback or hate in that there's like an elitism to

23
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 2: women wanting to marry a wealthy man. You know the

24
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 2: old statement that moms say it's just as easy to

25
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 2: marry a rich man as a poor man. So where

26
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: do you stand on a that statement? And if you

27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 2: ever get any pushback, like people being like, oh what

28
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 2: about someone's hard and it's not just about money and

29
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 2: superficial and things like that.

30
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 1: You know, I don't really have much to say on it.

31
00:01:33,160 --> 00:01:36,400
Speaker 3: If someone is a female and they're doing really well,

32
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,920
Speaker 3: I think wanting equal above just makes sense. Now for

33
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,480
Speaker 3: someone who has new ambition in life, who you know,

34
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,600
Speaker 3: doesn't work or anything like that, who wants someone wildly successful,

35
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 3: I think that's a little questionable.

36
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 2: That's interesting. Okay, So that's an interesting take and an

37
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: interesting nuance that we haven't discussed here yet. I love

38
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 2: to find the pieces of the puzzle for the people

39
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 2: listening because they're getting you know, you could be six

40
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: figures for someone to hire you to match them, and

41
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,720
Speaker 2: they're getting this for free here. And so I like

42
00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 2: to give advice and notes that are accessible to all.

43
00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:15,720
Speaker 2: You know, not everybody can go into Chanelle, including me,

44
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 2: and get a bag, but you know, people can have

45
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 2: game when they go out and date and look for

46
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 2: someone equal or above is what you said. So it's

47
00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,200
Speaker 2: funny because in this new dating era where I remember

48
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 2: being in my twenties and wanting to like lock up

49
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 2: my life by twenty six when I got married the

50
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:37,520
Speaker 2: first time. And I remember in my late thirties getting

51
00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,440
Speaker 2: into a relationship because I felt some sort of a pressure.

52
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 2: And it depends on where you are and the people

53
00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: you're surrounding yourself with, and you're kind of comparing yourself

54
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:46,880
Speaker 2: to that. So in my twenties, the whole group was

55
00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:50,760
Speaker 2: getting married at twenty five, twenty four, twenty six, and

56
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: like then in my late thirties, people were getting nervous

57
00:02:53,680 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: because that's a really witching hour age. And even six

58
00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:00,520
Speaker 2: years ago when I met my ex, I felt older

59
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 2: and it was gonna be a problem. Now I'm even

60
00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,960
Speaker 2: in a different range. But ironically I'm more confident because

61
00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 2: I feel like I know exactly where I am. I

62
00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:12,520
Speaker 2: know I'm established, and so the crop is smaller. But

63
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 2: it's like going into a store and knowing exactly what

64
00:03:15,480 --> 00:03:19,040
Speaker 2: you want versus going into a mass mall and having

65
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:21,520
Speaker 2: no plans. So now I feel like it is interesting,

66
00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 2: and for me, the equal or above thing is critical

67
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: based on my history, based on my negative experiences, and

68
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 2: I'm confident about it because of what I bring to

69
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 2: the table, where previously it was almost like an entitlement.

70
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:37,560
Speaker 2: And a lot of women just want to meet someone

71
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 2: and think that they're going to walk in and Prince

72
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,800
Speaker 2: Charming is gonna sweep them like pretty women. But that's

73
00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:45,120
Speaker 2: a fairy tale and that's a prescripted film. And obviously

74
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: these are blanket sweeping statements. There are pretty woman exceptions,

75
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: there are fairy tale exceptions. But if you're saying equal

76
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 2: or above, are you saying that from an accomplishment and

77
00:03:55,360 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 2: financial standpoint? When women are looking for men, they should

78
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 2: be looking for someone equal or above, Meaning you don't

79
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: think it's a great idea for someone to date someone

80
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:11,800
Speaker 2: who has significantly less than them or drastically more like,

81
00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: what should how should women be treating that aspect? Right?

82
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: No, exactly.

83
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: I think that for women who are well accomplished, who

84
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,320
Speaker 3: have done big things, I think dating down is only

85
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:24,840
Speaker 3: going to cause issues in the long term because then

86
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,200
Speaker 3: later on. I've seen it time and time again where

87
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 3: men feel emasculated and they feel there's just something that happens.

88
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: And what you know, men are like, no, it's not

89
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 1: a big deal, it's a big deal. They're really just.

90
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,040
Speaker 3: Trying to convince themselves, because at the end of the day,

91
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 3: a man wants to feel like they're the provider, they're

92
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,280
Speaker 3: the protector. And I have yet to see a very

93
00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 3: very successful woman with someone who you know, picked someone

94
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 3: wait further down than them and then it ended up

95
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:51,160
Speaker 3: working out for them.

96
00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: I haven't seen it.

97
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,200
Speaker 2: You're just going by institutional knowledge, and I experienced it,

98
00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: and there's a lot of data that I found out

99
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:00,680
Speaker 2: afterwards and hearing from a lot of women that if

100
00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 2: the woman and we and I always say every time

101
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 2: I'm on here, I'm like, I know, I'm setting women

102
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,400
Speaker 2: back one hundred years. This is just what goes on.

103
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:07,800
Speaker 2: And I'm sure you deal with a lot of that

104
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,599
Speaker 2: now in twenty twenty four with the gender dynamics, and

105
00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,760
Speaker 2: I'll take all that heat here on the show. I'm

106
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: not putting it on you. I'm saying that I have

107
00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 2: experienced and found out a lot since I opened up

108
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 2: this topic, that a gender disparity when the woman is

109
00:05:22,279 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: the moneyed partner, and it's significant. We're not talking about

110
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:27,840
Speaker 2: if the woman's wealthy and the man's a different kind

111
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 2: of wealthy, or if he you know, one is a

112
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 2: scientist who's won awards all over the world, and then

113
00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:36,880
Speaker 2: that's a different version. But if it's a woman with

114
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,919
Speaker 2: a man and they're justifying the fact that he's not

115
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,200
Speaker 2: working anymore and he followed her for her career and

116
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: he's saying home, there are exceptions, but there is a

117
00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 2: disparity and there becomes a power struggle and it comes

118
00:05:47,880 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 2: out in different ways. And I've had the exact same experience,

119
00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,840
Speaker 2: So it interestingly puts me in a position, for example,

120
00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 2: where I'm being open about what I'm looking for, and

121
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 2: I think a lot of women don't want to be

122
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 2: honest about what they're looking for. They think they're going

123
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,000
Speaker 2: to be thought of as a gold digger if they

124
00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:10,520
Speaker 2: want to be with someone who's smart and accomplished. But

125
00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 2: I think that many women may not want to do

126
00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 2: the work themselves. They just want to get that. They

127
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,240
Speaker 2: want to sign up for that. And I think it's

128
00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,280
Speaker 2: a message for if someone if a woman wants a

129
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,279
Speaker 2: man like that, that they should work on themselves and

130
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 2: work on their own career. Otherwise there'll be a disparity

131
00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 2: in that direction too, where the woman doesn't have the

132
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,800
Speaker 2: money and the man does. And then that also bleeds

133
00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 2: out later.

134
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 1: No, for sure.

135
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:36,640
Speaker 3: And I think what women tend to forget is that

136
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 3: if you have nothing, you bring nothing to the table

137
00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 3: other than your looks, right, you have no real job

138
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,440
Speaker 3: like whatever, And then you marry someone very, very wealthy,

139
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:47,960
Speaker 3: you have to remember that if he leads you, like

140
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 3: what grounds do you stand?

141
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: Like? Do you have financial stability to get back on

142
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:52,960
Speaker 1: your feet?

143
00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 3: You know? These are things that I think in this

144
00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,279
Speaker 3: day and age, women are starting to think, Okay, hold on,

145
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,799
Speaker 3: I should really have something going for my in case

146
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:03,280
Speaker 3: things don't go right, I have something.

147
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: To fall back on.

148
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 2: Well, that's what this conversation is helping. And that's what

149
00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:07,960
Speaker 2: I've been trying to say to young women because they're

150
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 2: being marketed fairy tales. They're being marketed the dress, the

151
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,760
Speaker 2: multi billion dollar wedding business, but they're not being marketed

152
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,880
Speaker 2: education on the relationship. And I do think you're an

153
00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 2: ex I think I don't think that people think of

154
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 2: matchmakers as experts on relationships. I think they think of

155
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 2: them as connectors. But I actually, from having met a

156
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:30,880
Speaker 2: few that are good, you know good, that it seems

157
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: like they're good or at least have a different perspective

158
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 2: and an expertise that you guys are experts on relationships too,

159
00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 2: like because you're hearing all the stories of the people

160
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,400
Speaker 2: that are coming to you about what didn't work out before.

161
00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:43,840
Speaker 2: Is that correct?

162
00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 1: Well, So I always say I'm a great dating coach.

163
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 3: You know, I wrote a book and I talk about

164
00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 3: how to attract the right guy and all those things.

165
00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:52,960
Speaker 3: To my book, I wouldn't say I'm a relationship expert.

166
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 3: I would say that I definitely understand what it's like

167
00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 3: to be single and how to attract and how to

168
00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:02,679
Speaker 3: practice discernment intuition. And it's crazy how women don't realize

169
00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 3: how intuitive they are.

170
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,440
Speaker 1: And I'm like, you have to use that when it

171
00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:06,080
Speaker 1: comes to dating.

172
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:08,880
Speaker 3: Your nervous system will always tell you if he's mister

173
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,120
Speaker 3: right or mister wrong. As far as relationships go, of course,

174
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 3: I can speak on the successes of my business and

175
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,160
Speaker 3: the people that are married, but you know, as far

176
00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 3: as like, yeah, I definitely would say I'm a dating coach,

177
00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:21,680
Speaker 3: not a relationship coach.

178
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 2: But if you're a dating coach and you get you

179
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 2: and you connect people that end up getting together and

180
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:33,360
Speaker 2: they sustain, then it's not just about someone attracting and

181
00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 2: getting because I could do that all day long. There's

182
00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:39,440
Speaker 2: got to be another piece where it's attracting the right

183
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,920
Speaker 2: person that's right for you. So at least if you're

184
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 2: not a relationship coach and you are a dating coach,

185
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 2: but you're also like a connectivity right match coach, Like,

186
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 2: how do you know what's the right match for someone?

187
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 2: I mean, and how much is chemistry? How much is

188
00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 2: like culture and background? How much is education philosophy?

189
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:03,960
Speaker 1: Can we talk about chemistry for a second.

190
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:08,360
Speaker 3: Yes, this is the biggest mistake I think people make

191
00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:12,640
Speaker 3: in dating is they will meet someone that there's so

192
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 3: much great chemistry with and then all of a sudden,

193
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 3: the rose colored glass come on right because the chemistry

194
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 3: is through the roof your heart's just and you're in

195
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,960
Speaker 3: the like honeymoon phase. You're still like dating early stage,

196
00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:27,479
Speaker 3: and because there's so much chemistry, you're not even realizing

197
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 3: that it's actually not a match. You guys don't share

198
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 3: the same values whatsoever. You guys could never build together.

199
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 3: You guys should just have incredible chemistry and you just

200
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,599
Speaker 3: have so much love for each other because it's like magnets,

201
00:09:39,640 --> 00:09:43,400
Speaker 3: you know. But we just have to remember that chemistry

202
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,080
Speaker 3: doesn't equal compatibility.

203
00:09:45,600 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 2: It's amazing. It's amazing because we were talking recently about chemistry,

204
00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 2: compatibility and communication, and compatibility isn't discussed enough. And that's

205
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,640
Speaker 2: I think. I always say, like, I'll get in the

206
00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 2: wrong car and the car is going somewhere and I

207
00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 2: knew that the sign was wrong, but I just got

208
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 2: in anyway. And I think it's the chemistry that gets

209
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,000
Speaker 2: you in the wrong car, and then all of a

210
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: sudden it's the habits, the in laws, the culture, the job.

211
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,280
Speaker 2: So when you're dating, how do you slow down the

212
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,200
Speaker 2: game and not make it so clinical because you want

213
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,400
Speaker 2: it to be sexy and you want there to be chemistry,

214
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:36,280
Speaker 2: And how do you discern between the chemistry and the compatibility.

215
00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 2: How do you make the compatibility sexy too?

216
00:10:39,120 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 3: Well, I think the first thing is there has to

217
00:10:40,920 --> 00:10:43,800
Speaker 3: be chemistry. It cannot work if there's no chemistry. Great,

218
00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 3: So it's kind of like, Okay, first, do we vibe?

219
00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 3: Is there energy flow? Like do we just enjoy each

220
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 3: other's company? Is there chemistry? I always think that's the

221
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,319
Speaker 3: first thing. Now, by the way, this is for someone

222
00:10:55,320 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 3: who you know doesn't have a matchmaker. This is for

223
00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 3: someone who's just out there dating see if there's chemistry.

224
00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:06,319
Speaker 3: If there is, then let's ask intentional questions. Let's peel

225
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 3: the layer of the onion to really see do we

226
00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 3: view the world in the same way?

227
00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,000
Speaker 1: Could we build something together?

228
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 3: So what that looks like is politics, religion, especially if

229
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 3: you want to raise children together. Another big one I

230
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:23,880
Speaker 3: would say is you know what do you value? What

231
00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,040
Speaker 3: is your lifestyle? Because the number one reason for divorce

232
00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:31,480
Speaker 3: is financial differences and financial struggles, and so how someone

233
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 3: spends their money could be a huge factor to whether

234
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 3: or not that you guys are a compatible match. You

235
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 3: can have the craziest chemistry in the world, but you

236
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:42,520
Speaker 3: spend your money so differently, and one person values such

237
00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:44,760
Speaker 3: different things on how they want to spend their money.

238
00:11:44,960 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: That it affects the relationship.

239
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 3: But it's constantly a struggle, like how you want to vacate,

240
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 3: you know, how often do you want to vacate? Or

241
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 3: do you spend all your money on you know, shopping

242
00:11:54,559 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 3: or you know.

243
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 2: So the money stuff has to get out of the

244
00:11:56,920 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 2: way fairly soon without being too aggressive, like it just

245
00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 2: has to cut naturally, Like I like to shop, and

246
00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,640
Speaker 2: I like to go to Europe, and I like to

247
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,839
Speaker 2: ski and like that type of stuff, Like the superficiality

248
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,560
Speaker 2: needs to come forward because then there becomes judgment, right.

249
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,480
Speaker 3: I definitely think lifestyles a huge one. Like, for example,

250
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,400
Speaker 3: if someone spends all their money on traveling to go

251
00:12:16,440 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 3: to mountains to go hiking, and that is where the

252
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,840
Speaker 3: hiking equipment's expensive, and they spend all their money on that,

253
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 3: and that means nothing to you. You don't value it whatsoever,

254
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,680
Speaker 3: and you're more the kind of person who wants to

255
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 3: go travel to Europe and enjoy nex dinners or go shopping.

256
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 1: Like that's not a compatible fit.

257
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 3: Like even if the chemistry is great, like you guys

258
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 3: are going to constantly argue about where the money's going.

259
00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 2: Well, this is interesting. So I was speaking to someone

260
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,560
Speaker 2: the other day that is a very successful person, I

261
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 2: mean by global standards, a very successful person, and they

262
00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:53,679
Speaker 2: are an extrovert and he, you know, you could tell

263
00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 2: that he's like traveling all over the world and doing

264
00:12:56,600 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 2: interesting things, and you could tell he's a people person.

265
00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: And I feel that women often want to like pretend.

266
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 2: I'm thinking of one woman that I know of who's

267
00:13:06,760 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 2: married some major men, and her reputation within a very

268
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 2: small circle is that she kind of is the one

269
00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:14,200
Speaker 2: who will be like, oh I like that too, or

270
00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 2: I do that too, et cetera. And there's a fine

271
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:21,319
Speaker 2: delicate balance in letting someone know how you're different from them,

272
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:22,800
Speaker 2: because you want to make sure that that's not a

273
00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:25,560
Speaker 2: red flag for them. Because while it's interesting to quote

274
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 2: unquote get and capture someone who seems great or good

275
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,439
Speaker 2: looking or successful, I'm not interested in the wrong car

276
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: that I'm getting into or someone's getting into the wrong

277
00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 2: car over here. Like I'll say I'm ninety five percent homebody,

278
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 2: five percent lunatic, because I want someone to know that

279
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:44,440
Speaker 2: if they're going out every night and want to entertain

280
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,280
Speaker 2: and do things in big groups and go on six,

281
00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:50,040
Speaker 2: you know, couple vacations, that's not my personality. So how

282
00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,119
Speaker 2: much in the beginning are you supposed to like combine

283
00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:57,440
Speaker 2: you know, captivating and capturing and being honest, you know,

284
00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,360
Speaker 2: because also opposites. You could also point out that ipposites

285
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:02,480
Speaker 2: do attract. So it doesn't mean we're supposed to be

286
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 2: the same exact person. There can only be There should

287
00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:06,640
Speaker 2: only be one peacock in a relationship, in my opinion,

288
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:08,640
Speaker 2: So it doesn't mean you need two peacocks, But how

289
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 2: much are you supposed to go through that?

290
00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:12,680
Speaker 1: Wait? Wait, can we the peacock theory?

291
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:13,480
Speaker 2: Let's hear go.

292
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: I call it the rock star theory. Where there's a

293
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: star and a rock.

294
00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 3: Someone's super stable, more low key, you know, more in

295
00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,160
Speaker 3: the background, and then the star and like the rock

296
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:24,720
Speaker 3: star couple is always thriving.

297
00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: It just worked.

298
00:14:25,680 --> 00:14:31,479
Speaker 2: Wow, that's so the rock and the star interesting theory. Interesting.

299
00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 1: I do different couples.

300
00:14:33,360 --> 00:14:34,800
Speaker 3: When I'm out in a bow, and I always like

301
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,280
Speaker 3: an analyze, like who's the rock, who's the star, and

302
00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:38,880
Speaker 3: then like my girlfriends and I will recapin like, oh,

303
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 3: that was definitely the star.

304
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,120
Speaker 1: He's definitely the rock, like and it worked.

305
00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:46,720
Speaker 2: Wow? Okay, but how but what if there's one person

306
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,400
Speaker 2: who's like the star and then the other person's boring

307
00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:51,800
Speaker 2: and the star needs like light, you know what I mean?

308
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,000
Speaker 2: What about the one person Doman Rock.

309
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:54,960
Speaker 1: Doesn't have to be boring.

310
00:14:55,120 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 3: He just doesn't mind letting the star being a light,

311
00:14:58,240 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 3: letting her shine. He's not a bored I don't know.

312
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 3: He came funny and adventurous and all the things, but

313
00:15:02,960 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 3: he's more of the I don't need to be in

314
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: the light.

315
00:15:05,320 --> 00:15:06,800
Speaker 1: Like you got it, you know.

316
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 2: So how much of your crazy should you show early?

317
00:15:10,320 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 1: How much crazy? Okay?

318
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:11,600
Speaker 2: Yeah?

319
00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: Wait, so going back to that question, So, here's the thing.

320
00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,720
Speaker 3: When you for your friend that's always agreeing like oh yeah,

321
00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 3: me too, me too, here's the thing.

322
00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:22,920
Speaker 1: You can put it on that phase for only so long.

323
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,360
Speaker 3: At one point that person is going to use their

324
00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:29,240
Speaker 3: intuition and say something doesn't feel right, you know, like

325
00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:32,280
Speaker 3: she agrees with everything I say. And you need to

326
00:15:32,320 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 3: be authentic when you're dating. If you were not authentic

327
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:37,040
Speaker 3: and you were agreeing with everything saying that you also

328
00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,240
Speaker 3: enjoy doing the same things when you really don't, that

329
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,920
Speaker 3: is doing you such a disservice because, like you said,

330
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,960
Speaker 3: you get in the wrong car, and that's that's like

331
00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 3: blocking you from meeting the right person where you genuinely

332
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 3: do have all those things in common.

333
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: So I think being authentic is the ultimate advice I

334
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: would give.

335
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 2: Okay, and where are you? We've talked about sex on

336
00:15:58,520 --> 00:16:01,680
Speaker 2: here and to me, to me, I feel like the

337
00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 2: game the rules. Men can see through them if they're

338
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:08,720
Speaker 2: not being authentic, Like if a woman is just let's

339
00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:11,000
Speaker 2: say a woman's really getting intimate with someone, but they're

340
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: just going to withhold sex, but the guy knows they

341
00:16:14,160 --> 00:16:17,280
Speaker 2: really are just making that rule for themselves, and the

342
00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 2: woman's like really being methodical and playing the game. I

343
00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:23,920
Speaker 2: think that is as much of a turn off as

344
00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 2: someone like playing fast and loose too early, Like don't

345
00:16:27,440 --> 00:16:31,160
Speaker 2: I think that someone should exude confidence, and it can

346
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 2: come in many ways, but it doesn't mean like you

347
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:34,640
Speaker 2: do this, you don't do this. So where are you

348
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 2: on sex? Do you think that someone should do what

349
00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,440
Speaker 2: they actually want? Or you think there should be some

350
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 2: version of a game and a rule, like where are

351
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:41,960
Speaker 2: you on sex?

352
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 3: I really think that there's no number or no timeline

353
00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 3: of like this is the rule when it comes to sex.

354
00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:52,520
Speaker 1: However, what I will say is.

355
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,560
Speaker 3: That it does complicate things when you have sex too early,

356
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 3: because it blurs kind of like the rose colored glasses.

357
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 3: If the sex is through the roof and you're having

358
00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 3: a grand time and you're like, wow, this is my

359
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 3: compatible partner in this way, but none of the other

360
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:07,240
Speaker 3: stuff makes sense. You might end up sticking around a

361
00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,639
Speaker 3: little too long because it's the wrong car, but it

362
00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 3: drives really well. So I think waiting and really getting

363
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,320
Speaker 3: to know that person first is just the best approach.

364
00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:19,160
Speaker 2: Well, that's back to your discussion about chemistry. You're saying

365
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 2: the same thing you're saying, you're lying on the chemistry.

366
00:17:22,040 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 2: It's clouding you. But you don't think in twenty twenty

367
00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:28,160
Speaker 2: four that someone's judging someone for having sex if they're

368
00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:30,560
Speaker 2: adults and like they're attracted to each other. Like it's

369
00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:33,320
Speaker 2: like we're you know that someone's judging Oh, she's slept

370
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 2: with me on the first date, she's promiscuous, or he's

371
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:37,320
Speaker 2: a player or anything like that.

372
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 3: Now, I think in this day and age, we hear

373
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:43,960
Speaker 3: so many one off exceptions of well we met, we had,

374
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,159
Speaker 3: you know, sex on the first day and whatever. Like

375
00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:48,359
Speaker 3: I've heard that so many times now where I'm like,

376
00:17:48,400 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 3: there's an exception to the rule.

377
00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:51,200
Speaker 1: Is it best practice?

378
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 3: No? Would any matchmaker dating coach say that's best practice?

379
00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:54,760
Speaker 1: No?

380
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 2: Right?

381
00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:56,639
Speaker 1: So, And I think just

382
00:17:56,680 --> 00:17:58,639
Speaker 3: Like taking the time to really get to know someone,

383
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:02,240
Speaker 3: it's just you're better off for it because then you're

384
00:18:02,359 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 3: you're not wearing the roast colored glasses.
