I think if 31 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: i'm I think Mdea had a movie about this. It's 32 00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: called Why Did I Get Married? Okay, that's what it's called. 33 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 1: And so I ask you the same question, why did 34 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,120 Speaker 1: you get married? Why? Why? Why would you do this 35 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,079 Speaker 1: to yours to not not to yourself, but to your wife? Okay, 36 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: you know you need to be single. That that's that's 37 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,440 Speaker 1: the point in this whole letter. You writer of this letter, 38 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 1: man that's been married, uh for for two years, who 39 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 1: loves his wife with everything inside of him and wants 40 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: to spend the rest of his life with her. He's 41 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: an amazing woman and wife. You've had great sex, but 42 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: you want an open relationship that doesn't go together. That 43 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 1: doesn't go together. You need to be free to be freaky. Okay, 44 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 1: that's what you need. You can be as free as 45 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: you as free as you want to be, to be 46 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: freaky with whoever you want to be freaky with. I mean, 47 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: I just think it's yeah, I think it's I think 48 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,120 Speaker 1: it's so unfair to your wife to expect her to 49 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 1: be a part of this. I mean, you know you 50 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 1: could have laid this out for her before you guys 51 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,760 Speaker 1: took the vows. Okay, because you take the vows to 52 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 1: love each other, it doesn't say anything about, you know, 53 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: any open relationship or or or living out your fantasies, 54 00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: your sexual fantasies and anything like that. I think your 55 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: wife is, Um, you kind of got her in a 56 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:40,119 Speaker 1: trick bag with this one. Um. You know, no one 57 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 1: gets to do whatever they want to do sexually when 58 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: they're married. I mean, yeah, you have fantasies, but anyway, 59 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: I just think it's unfair to your wife. And what 60 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: should you do? Uh? Yeah, tell your wife and see 61 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 1: how she feels. I uh suspect she will walk out 62 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,280 Speaker 1: at this point because she can't. You're right, she can't 63 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 1: compete with this. There's nothing she can't keep up with 64 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: all of this. You need to be single. Why did 65 00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: you get married, Jake? First of all, he's already doing 66 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: what he wrote about. That's already being done. And if 67 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: you're doing what you wrote about before you wrote about it, 68 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: I hope you're out there practicing safe sex. Please. You 69 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: don't want to take that to the house, then you 70 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: will have something to explain. Okay, you know what I'm saying. 71 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:30,599 Speaker 1: It's like sometimes you said I want that extra piece 72 00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,800 Speaker 1: of pie, and you already had the pie. So you 73 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: can't bring your wife into this. Just do what you've 74 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: been doing, keep it to yourself, keep your mouth shut, 75 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: and enjoy your life. Just do what you've been doing. 76 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 1: Keep it to yourself, keep your mouth shut. Everybody ain't 77 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: got to know what you're doing. Well, now people know, 78 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: they don't know who this guy. This guy could be 79 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: somebody in the bank, man, because your wife is not 80 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: going for this at all, not at all. Yeah, he 81 00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,760 Speaker 1: needs to be free to be freaky, okay, because if 82 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:14,600 Speaker 1: you tell her missing, if you tell her she's out, 83 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 1: you can be freaking. Man. Let me get great on that. Yeah, 84 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,559 Speaker 1: but not like this. I'm talking about the whole different 85 00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 1: king open relationships, you know, several parts and at some 86 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 1: point you're right, so at some point some of us 87 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 1: gonna come to the house.

This is another case of 91 00:05:54,279 --> 00:06:00,599 Speaker 1: a possible selfish one. The man is the heat and 92 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 1: he must leave now wherever he takes you. That's where 93 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 1: you go, Pete. What if he leads you to a 94 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:18,240 Speaker 1: swinger's party, then you do what your man do, all right? 95 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 1: Your man has a freaky bucket list and there's some 96 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: things on it he got to get checked on.
