3
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:22,400
Speaker 1: so let's dive back into some burning questions. Was there

4
00:00:22,440 --> 00:00:25,120
Speaker 1: any point leading up to the wedding did you have

5
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: cold feet?

6
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 2: No? Zero, No, even though we had a tough week

7
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 2: leaning not.

8
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: To the wedding, it was not uneasy start.

9
00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 3: No, there was no part of me knew that. There

10
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:40,960
Speaker 3: was no part of me doesn't want to get married

11
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 3: to you.

12
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:47,519
Speaker 1: Never And for those listening, it was listen. It was

13
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 1: one of those things where we had all the babies

14
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,959
Speaker 1: were sick days before the wedding. Yeah, no sleep we

15
00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,080
Speaker 1: were in scott I mean, but it was no, I

16
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 1: couldn't sleep and insomnia the first time ever experiencing something.

17
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 1: Yeah it was, Yeah, but it was a beautiful day.

18
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 1: The wedding ended up being beautiful. I was so tired

19
00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: to have any cold feet, But no, I had. I

20
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: had zero. I just feet, Its just tired feet. No,

21
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 1: it was, But I mean, I but I did in

22
00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:25,680
Speaker 1: previous That's the thing, and that's what I'm like, you know,

23
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:30,640
Speaker 1: would want people to know, is I knew I've only

24
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,400
Speaker 1: walked down the you know, of the divorces. I only

25
00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 1: walked down the aisle twice. In each one, I had

26
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: that feeling of, oh god, oh really, I'm making the

27
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: wrong decision. Absolutely, the you know, absolutely the first one,

28
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,200
Speaker 1: you know, it was just the only weak marriage was

29
00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:52,880
Speaker 1: I mean, I cried about it in the bathroom at

30
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: the wedding, like I made a mistake. And then the

31
00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 1: second one was you know again you know, ended up

32
00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 1: being my longest marriage. But yeah, I walked down going,

33
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 1: I don't trust this the second one, Mike, because he

34
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,960
Speaker 1: cheated when we were dating, so I already had I

35
00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 1: didn't trust it, and so but I wanted to believe

36
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,800
Speaker 1: in something, and I wanted to believe a version. So

37
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 1: I walked down to a version that wasn't real. And

38
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 1: with us, it was like I knew who I was

39
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 1: walking down to, Like you gave me zero thoughts the

40
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,760
Speaker 1: opposite way, right, Like I knew who you were, what

41
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 1: you were, what you were about. And so, you know,

42
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,480
Speaker 1: to anyone redoing their part two, it's like, I think

43
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: that comes with wisdom and to listen to your gut knowing.

44
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: And I gotta imagine, I mean, I don't know, if

45
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: maybe you didn't feel that way, you know with your

46
00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 1: previous I don't know if people have that. I have

47
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: no idea, but I knew, so.

48
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, zero cold feet my own BIB.

49
00:02:58,520 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 1: Thanks Ben.

50
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 3: When it comes to how you both approach life, what's

51
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 3: the biggest difference.

52
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:06,679
Speaker 1: I think the biggest difference between you and I and

53
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: how we approach life is you approach it with more

54
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:20,560
Speaker 1: like You're very internal processor and I'm external processor. So

55
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:22,679
Speaker 1: I want to talk it out. I want to be like,

56
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 1: all right, what do we doing? How are we doing this?

57
00:03:24,120 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 1: Let's just plan this and like let's and it's like

58
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 1: you are you get really serious, really like in your

59
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: head and I can't facilitate or help when it's like

60
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 1: the internal processing and that's difficult for an external processor

61
00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:40,640
Speaker 1: being like.

62
00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 3: Ah yeah, I think of it like there was something

63
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,840
Speaker 3: that happened this mornment and I'm the calendar stuff.

64
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: Oh yeah. And part of so Alan, this is one

65
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: of my husband's. This is one of my biggest pet

66
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,320
Speaker 1: peeves in one of I think Alan's weakest things is

67
00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 1: like I done it in the weakest get how do

68
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,440
Speaker 1: you say that? Then like it's you're you're not you know,

69
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:08,560
Speaker 1: it's not a strength. So like when it comes to

70
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,840
Speaker 1: a calendar. I put everything on the calendar that is

71
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 1: important that I have to do that day. Alan won't

72
00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 1: put things on the calendar, so I have no clue.

73
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 1: So when I'm scheduling, because I do all the scheduling,

74
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,720
Speaker 1: I'll schedule the nanny and the it's not that I.

75
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: Don't put them on. I'm just not as consistent as

76
00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:23,240
Speaker 2: you are.

77
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: You don't always put them on, so like you don't

78
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 1: have any stuff on for tomorrow or the next day,

79
00:04:27,640 --> 00:04:29,880
Speaker 1: so I don't know what's happening. And then I'm scheduling,

80
00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 1: it's like, okay, you have to leave, but I have

81
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,600
Speaker 1: the nanny leaving at this time. And if I don't

82
00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,839
Speaker 1: know this, so this morning I'm like, hey, this is

83
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,160
Speaker 1: so frustrating. Like I need to know what's happening so

84
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 1: I can plan my life, baby's life.

85
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, I expect you to know what I'm thinking and

86
00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 3: what I'm doing.

87
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 1: Well, that is that's it's crazy, like and that's why.

88
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 3: And like I said, since I mate, you have become

89
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 3: better at using the calendar on the phone, but I

90
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,119
Speaker 3: expect you to know what's going on in my world,

91
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 3: and it's.

92
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,680
Speaker 2: Not I should. I need to be better at that.

93
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 3: So the biggest difference is you're really structured than externalize

94
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,719
Speaker 3: and vocalize the things you need done. Was I'm a

95
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: bit more less organized when it comes to the structure,

96
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,840
Speaker 3: but also I don't vocalize that enough. So you need

97
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,920
Speaker 3: to talk less. Now talk more. It's basically what I'm saying. Yeah,

98
00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,240
Speaker 3: and I think my fingers busier with the calendar.

99
00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,359
Speaker 1: Okay, noted? Since getting married, what's been the biggest obstacle

100
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: we faced? Did you get through the obstacle or is

101
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 1: it still something you deal with?

102
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 2: Probably the Chicago thing.

103
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean, I think it was one of them.

104
00:05:47,920 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's been a couple.

105
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:54,600
Speaker 1: I think when it was so working around job obstacles

106
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:59,719
Speaker 1: where his coaching job takes them having to move. I

107
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,159
Speaker 1: can't move because I've got kids here in another co

108
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:06,800
Speaker 1: parenting situation. I think it becomes an obstacle of all right,

109
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:09,360
Speaker 1: we'll shoot you know what do we do here? This

110
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,440
Speaker 1: is what you love to do. You love to coach,

111
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: This coaching career is ten eleven months away from the family.

112
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,080
Speaker 1: I can't move. It becomes an obstacle, not became an obstacle.

113
00:06:21,080 --> 00:06:24,360
Speaker 3: That was we got through and we're now getting through

114
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,360
Speaker 3: to a point where I've pivoted and found solutions in

115
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:35,839
Speaker 3: other ways which are good solutions. Or many things been

116
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 3: with family and still being able to be flexible, not

117
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 3: being bogged down at club seven days a week. So

118
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 3: it was an obstacle that we again we go through that.

119
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 3: There's been other other obstacles and things that have come

120
00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:51,320
Speaker 3: up that we've got through.

121
00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: I think communication has been an obstacle, but we have

122
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,359
Speaker 1: we have a couple of therapist that helps. It's like

123
00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,200
Speaker 1: to work on the communication now so that it doesn't

124
00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:08,719
Speaker 1: become a catastrophe in the end. Right, Like if we

125
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,520
Speaker 1: continuously don't communicate well for years to come, well that's

126
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:17,280
Speaker 1: why at seven years everyone's like exploding, I'm out. So

127
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 1: I think that's where it's work on the communication on

128
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,520
Speaker 1: the front end, where when you see the problems arise,

129
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 1: so that way you can be on the same page

130
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,200
Speaker 1: to want to keep fighting for it. But I think

131
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: when couples don't work on the communication in the beginning,

132
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: then when they have so many years in, they're like

133
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm over it. And there's so many things

134
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,600
Speaker 1: that probably fights that have happened or things that have

135
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 1: just added so much turmoil into the relationship. Then it

136
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,720
Speaker 1: makes it harder to walk through and make it better.

137
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,600
Speaker 3: More resentment, right, So we do that. A lot of

138
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:54,040
Speaker 3: people have their opinion on a couple stuff. We do

139
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 3: it so that our foundation is stronger.

140
00:07:56,080 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 1: Yeah. Now we're not walking in at war, and I

141
00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 1: think that's the thing where what I love about therapy

142
00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 1: is you can walk in at peace to not have

143
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,640
Speaker 1: a war. But when you walk in with war, you

144
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: have like a mountain of resentment to work through. What

145
00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 1: counts as cheating to you is liking women's men's pictures

146
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: you don't know on social media?

147
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 3: Cheating it's thats respectful note of all the Yeah, it's

148
00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:29,200
Speaker 3: a lack of respect. Is it cheating? I think it's

149
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:33,320
Speaker 3: a form of cheating. Really, I think it's a gatewight

150
00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:33,960
Speaker 3: is cheating?

151
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:35,520
Speaker 1: Okay, wake time out? Can we.

152
00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 4: No? No?

153
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:39,960
Speaker 1: No, can we just time out? I need to have

154
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 1: boundaries on this for one second. Is it people we

155
00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:43,920
Speaker 1: know or don't know?

156
00:08:44,240 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 2: Well, the questions is okay, you.

157
00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: Don't know, Okay, So yeah, I just want to make

158
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,120
Speaker 1: sure that's very clear because I'm like, shoot, I hearts

159
00:08:51,200 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: people's that I know that I like, follow or whatever. Okay,

160
00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:59,280
Speaker 1: So that you don't know on social media cheating. I

161
00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: think it's a boundary very crossed. Do I think it's cheating.

162
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:04,160
Speaker 1: I don't think that's cheating. I think it could be

163
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:07,160
Speaker 1: a boundary if but we've never really talked about that,

164
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,240
Speaker 1: Like I think that I find it disrespectful.

165
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 3: Percent If I'm like in a woman's picture on social

166
00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,679
Speaker 3: media that I don't know and you don't know, that's

167
00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:18,480
Speaker 3: crossing the boundary and that's disrespectful.

168
00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,480
Speaker 1: On that topic, I do want to talk about this

169
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,640
Speaker 1: because this bothers me, and this is something when I

170
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: was dating guys, one of the very first things that

171
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,600
Speaker 1: I would do is I would go to their follow

172
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,800
Speaker 1: and see the type of women they're following on Instagram. Yeah,

173
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:40,720
Speaker 1: that showed me a lot. And if it was the

174
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 1: certain types of women, I'm not trying. I'm like, I'm

175
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: really not trying to like sound because I'm not like

176
00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: they're all they're beautiful, They're stunning, they're you know, like, yes,

177
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:56,400
Speaker 1: the most amazing butts ever, and I think there's a

178
00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:59,240
Speaker 1: certain how do I say this, I don't want it

179
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: to sound like I'm hating on women, because I, in

180
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:05,760
Speaker 1: no way, shape or form is that at all. But

181
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: if a man is only following these, this is gonna

182
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 1: sound so bad because I'm like not trying to make

183
00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: it out. I don't know if that's the type of

184
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:19,600
Speaker 1: guy that I would want to be with, because I've

185
00:10:19,720 --> 00:10:24,760
Speaker 1: I've dated face face types of guys that have followed

186
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:28,280
Speaker 1: and it's not ended. Well, does that make me sound bad?

187
00:10:29,160 --> 00:10:32,079
Speaker 1: But like if that would have been your follow list,

188
00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:35,160
Speaker 1: I would have been so turned off? But like, how

189
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 1: is that okay for me to say that?

190
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:36,480
Speaker 3: Though?

191
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,679
Speaker 1: When like, those women are beautiful and it's not it's

192
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 1: but you're not.

193
00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 2: You're not. Everyone knows what you mean. You don't need

194
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 2: to say it. Everyone knows what you mean.

195
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:50,000
Speaker 1: But there's nothing wrong with those type of women at all.

196
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 3: No, not at all. But you don't want to be

197
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,920
Speaker 3: with a guy that likes that type of women. That's

198
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:59,280
Speaker 3: fair enough. Yeah, that's your opinion, that's what you'll need us,

199
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:00,720
Speaker 3: so therefore that's fine.

200
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: But I would say, I guess if we're in a

201
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:05,839
Speaker 1: relationship and you're still following a bunch of women like that,

202
00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:07,960
Speaker 1: I would have a I would have an issue with that,

203
00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:12,160
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't believe, Like I sometimes when I look

204
00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: at guys that I'm like, okay, I know their relationship.

205
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: I'm like, how are they still following all these girls

206
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: like that? And that girlfriend's okay? Like I would not

207
00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 1: be okay if I know that that's what your home

208
00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 1: screen looks like when you're on when when we're together

209
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,080
Speaker 1: in a relationship and your home scream looks like an

210
00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,680
Speaker 1: only fans page, I would have a really I would.

211
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,960
Speaker 1: I would struggle with that, and not because I'm insecure,

212
00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,480
Speaker 1: but because I don't want my my man looking at

213
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: one of my man looking at that. It's like absolutely, yeah,

214
00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:43,640
Speaker 1: I think it respect on a grid because like right,

215
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:45,800
Speaker 1: like would you want my page to be like all

216
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,160
Speaker 1: these like musclely dudes with their shirt off, like as

217
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 1: those are the guys that I follow, And then like

218
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: when I go to my homepage, it's all like like

219
00:11:54,440 --> 00:12:02,360
Speaker 1: my homepage is like narcissist abuse, trauma stuff, quotes, kids

220
00:12:02,400 --> 00:12:06,520
Speaker 1: stuff and like funny relationship things because we always yeah,

221
00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,880
Speaker 1: means like.

222
00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:10,319
Speaker 3: I think we're pretty I think we are pretty good

223
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:12,840
Speaker 3: and aligned on a lot of things like this, Like.

224
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,520
Speaker 1: If I'm out in our little sanctuary area and you

225
00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:17,680
Speaker 1: see me on Instagram scrolling and I'm looking at like

226
00:12:17,840 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: dudes in the gym, would you be upset?

227
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would actually want Yeah, I mean.

228
00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,240
Speaker 1: Same, I wouldn't like it either.

229
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 4: Yeah.

230
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:39,240
Speaker 1: So which leads me then to is watching pornography cheating again?

231
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:41,479
Speaker 1: I don't think it's cheating. I think it's a boundary

232
00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:43,680
Speaker 1: and I don't really think have we ever talked? Do

233
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 1: you watch part?

234
00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 2: No? And I don't think it's something that promotes a health.

235
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 1: You can be honest, it's only just us.

236
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:53,160
Speaker 2: I'm being honest.

237
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:56,040
Speaker 3: I don't think it's something that promotes a healthy man

238
00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:57,360
Speaker 3: or a healthy marriage.

239
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,440
Speaker 1: Yeah, therefore, I know we have discussed that before. I

240
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:04,760
Speaker 1: don't I wouldn't break up with you over it. But

241
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:08,000
Speaker 1: it's a triggering thing to my past that I would

242
00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,520
Speaker 1: appreciate you not doing. And I think it's something where

243
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: it opens. I think a negative gateway. It could get worse.

244
00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,360
Speaker 1: From my personal experience, it gets, it starts there and

245
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: then it grows and it gets worse.

246
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:23,120
Speaker 2: It's a gateway like a lot of things.

247
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:27,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, Is flirting with a waitress of bartender cheating again?

248
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 1: I think it's a boundary of respect. Is going to

249
00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:32,480
Speaker 1: a strip club cheating again?

250
00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,200
Speaker 2: It's not cheating, but it's not something you do to

251
00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:37,760
Speaker 2: promote a healthy marriage.

252
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:44,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, and you go and I'll have your bags packed again.

253
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,720
Speaker 1: Not because I'm not secure, but I just I don't

254
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 1: want another girl's titties up in your face.

255
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:53,439
Speaker 2: And you don't need to work it with that, Okay, And.

256
00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:56,640
Speaker 1: I know that that's the thing. Like I I know

257
00:13:56,840 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: that you are a different type of man, and I

258
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:02,240
Speaker 1: appreciate that and love that. Thank you for respecting me

259
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: the way that you do, not saying that a guy

260
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 1: going to a strip club doesn't respect a girl. I

261
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,200
Speaker 1: wanted to put that out there too. But if that's

262
00:14:09,200 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: fine with you, and you don't care like for dudes,

263
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:13,720
Speaker 1: like letting the dudes go out for a night out.

264
00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:15,560
Speaker 1: I just I know girls that are fine with it.

265
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,040
Speaker 1: I have friends that are like, yeah, it's fine if

266
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 1: they just go for fun. I just didn't want that,

267
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,360
Speaker 1: and I think it's been too much of my past trauma.

268
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 3: Yeah, listen again, if you flip the situation like we

269
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:30,680
Speaker 3: do in a manager. If you're going to a club

270
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 3: but a guy he's robbing, he's a good troll over

271
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 3: your leg and your face and stuff that am I

272
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:35,280
Speaker 3: going to be happy with that?

273
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:35,920
Speaker 2: No?

274
00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's the rule. We live by flip it. Anything

275
00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,680
Speaker 1: in life, flip it. If it's he's doing something, he

276
00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,200
Speaker 1: flips it, would like me doing that. If the answer

277
00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:47,320
Speaker 1: is no, don't do it.

278
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:50,920
Speaker 2: Exactly is having a subscription to only fins.

279
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: It's just not again boundaries.

280
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 4: Yeah.

281
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: Do you think it's ever okay to tell little lies

282
00:14:57,960 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: in a relationship?

283
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 2: It's not unless it's a fun one.

284
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,600
Speaker 3: Because a fun lie like a present you've got them

285
00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,760
Speaker 3: and you've told them you've not got them a present.

286
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: I have lied in obviously past relationships to protect the

287
00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 1: how do I say this to me? It's like irrelevant

288
00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 1: or I didn't want to blow up. I don't want

289
00:15:16,400 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 1: to be a fight. But in this relationship, I mean,

290
00:15:18,880 --> 00:15:21,280
Speaker 1: I've come to you with hard things when you've asked me,

291
00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,200
Speaker 1: or when you've asked me a question and like a

292
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 1: piece of he's like, oh, just so I no, because

293
00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,480
Speaker 1: it's like it doesn't matter. It was back in when

294
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:30,720
Speaker 1: you were twenty in la and like who cares? And

295
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:33,760
Speaker 1: what I love about our relationship is that I can

296
00:15:33,800 --> 00:15:36,200
Speaker 1: say like, I've never lied to you, and I you know,

297
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 1: and there's been something where you asked me and I'm like,

298
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,560
Speaker 1: and it was tough because you didn't like the answer.

299
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: But I'm like, which one would you have wanted more?

300
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,600
Speaker 1: Because damn did I want to lie to you? Boy?

301
00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:49,280
Speaker 1: Did I not want to tell you the truth? Because

302
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:50,640
Speaker 1: I didn't want this reaction?

303
00:15:50,880 --> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not exactly which one your thought about it?

304
00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, but which one at the end of the day.

305
00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 3: But actually made me respect you more for the terrific

306
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:00,640
Speaker 3: out your move.

307
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean that. Yeah, that was better than hindsight.

308
00:16:05,720 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, longer term, that's better.

309
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:09,680
Speaker 1: Absolutely, It's not easy, but it's better.

310
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 2: Yeah.

311
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:11,920
Speaker 1: What drives you nuts about the other?

312
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,160
Speaker 2: What drives me nuts about you?

313
00:16:14,200 --> 00:16:17,880
Speaker 3: As you revert to feeling like you have to do

314
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 3: everything yourself, you go into solo mode. It drives me

315
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,840
Speaker 3: nuts because I'm always here for you, and I'm always

316
00:16:27,880 --> 00:16:29,880
Speaker 3: here to try and help with things. I might not

317
00:16:29,960 --> 00:16:34,520
Speaker 3: always be forthcoming, but I'm always thinking, how can I help?

318
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 3: But how can I make a day better? How can

319
00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 3: I So when you feel like I'll just do it

320
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:41,560
Speaker 3: myself because That's where I'm going to be doing, That's

321
00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:43,560
Speaker 3: how I'm going to do it, And that drives me crazy.

322
00:16:45,280 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: I get it. Is there anything we haven't asked each other?

323
00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 2: But relation not that I know of No, I think

324
00:16:51,800 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 2: we've been asked that question before.

325
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: At any point in our relationship, have we not prioritized intimacy?

326
00:16:56,600 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: New we good in that area. I think it's something

327
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: where we know it's important to both of us, and

328
00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,280
Speaker 1: so we are always either touching each other. And it's

329
00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,520
Speaker 1: not just sex, like we have a very healthy sex life,

330
00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:15,240
Speaker 1: but it's we're constantly touching each other, hand, kiss, We're

331
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 1: connected even in the passings, which arguments tend to repeat

332
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:21,160
Speaker 1: in our relationship.

333
00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:28,680
Speaker 3: My quietness, my me internalizing before I externalize things.

334
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, and sometimes like the words yeah, I think before

335
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:40,000
Speaker 1: we speak. If you could see into our future together,

336
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,280
