<v Speaker 1>Yeah, am one of the Hamasavada. You like the show?

<v Speaker 1>If you don't like to show, what do you want

0:00:27.160 --> 0:00:30.200
<v Speaker 1>me to talk about today's episode? I wanted to do something. Okay,

0:00:30.480 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>it hits home a little bit.

0:00:32.280 --> 0:00:37.560
<v Speaker 2>Expectations between women and men, who's held to higher standards?

0:00:37.800 --> 0:00:40.360
<v Speaker 2>I really want to know. I've been going on social media.

0:00:40.400 --> 0:00:44.559
<v Speaker 2>I've been seeing so many comments about how men of value,

0:00:45.120 --> 0:00:48.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, valuable men, you know, women that have higher standards,

0:00:48.920 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 2>men that have higher standards. What are the damn standards?

0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand anymore at this point. When we talk

0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:58.040
<v Speaker 2>about theek and men of value and higher standards, what

0:00:58.080 --> 0:01:00.520
<v Speaker 2>exactly does that mean at this point? Because for example,

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 2>at one point I was even told that my value

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 2>as a woman had You know, I've been kind of

0:01:07.640 --> 0:01:11.080
<v Speaker 2>devalued because now I have children and I am unmarried.

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:14.120
<v Speaker 1>At one point, being married made.

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:16.199
<v Speaker 2>You be like, oh, you know, you know, you reach

0:01:16.280 --> 0:01:18.840
<v Speaker 2>your standards in life or your goals in life. But

0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:21.360
<v Speaker 2>since I don't have that, does that mean that I

0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.560
<v Speaker 2>have you know, my value has gone down? And not

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 2>only that, but then there's also when it comes to

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:30.640
<v Speaker 2>the standards and values. I've also heard that once a

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 2>woman hits a certain age point and you still haven't

0:01:34.240 --> 0:01:36.319
<v Speaker 2>gotten married, or you still haven't gotten a man, or

0:01:36.360 --> 0:01:38.760
<v Speaker 2>you still haven't had children, or you still you know, whatever,

0:01:39.120 --> 0:01:42.039
<v Speaker 2>then your value has gone down because supposedly, when you're

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.440
<v Speaker 2>in your twenties you're at like a hundred, right then,

0:01:45.560 --> 0:01:49.640
<v Speaker 2>supposedly based on what men I've heard men say, then

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>in your thirties, you know you still have a chance.

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:53.760
<v Speaker 2>But once you hit forty and fifty, you know you

0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.280
<v Speaker 2>kind of get whatever is left. Do you guys believe

0:01:56.320 --> 0:02:00.120
<v Speaker 2>in that crap the same way that I've heard the men.

0:02:00.400 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Man's value change obviously.

0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 2>When obviously, you know, according to some women say once

0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.600
<v Speaker 2>they have a lot of several different baby mamas, if

0:02:07.600 --> 0:02:09.600
<v Speaker 2>you have three or four different baby mamas, does your

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:13.520
<v Speaker 2>standard as a man changes, Your value as a man changes,

0:02:14.120 --> 0:02:16.520
<v Speaker 2>if you still live at home with your mother and

0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 2>your father. But let's say you're the one that pays

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.400
<v Speaker 2>all the bills. You know, you're holding your family down,

0:02:21.400 --> 0:02:23.399
<v Speaker 2>but you're still living with your mom and your dad.

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:26.680
<v Speaker 1>Does your value of a man go down? I don't know.

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.399
<v Speaker 2>I feel like social media these days has allowed people

0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:32.280
<v Speaker 2>to have platforms where they feel that they can just

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:33.080
<v Speaker 2>give their opinions.

0:02:33.120 --> 0:02:33.680
<v Speaker 1>Which is fine.

0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:35.680
<v Speaker 2>Everybody has the rest to give their opinion that I say,

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:40.600
<v Speaker 2>whatever you want. But unfortunately some of these comments, especially

0:02:40.960 --> 0:02:43.040
<v Speaker 2>according to who you know, from where they come from,

0:02:43.080 --> 0:02:46.680
<v Speaker 2>who says it, it does affect and influence society to

0:02:46.720 --> 0:02:50.160
<v Speaker 2>a certain extent because they achieve me and whatever is

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:53.440
<v Speaker 2>that people here, they copy paste and share it and

0:02:53.480 --> 0:02:55.880
<v Speaker 2>then all of a sudden, this now has become the truth,

0:02:56.440 --> 0:02:58.520
<v Speaker 2>which I disagree on. There's a lot of things that

0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:02.000
<v Speaker 2>I disagree on, like who said that your experience is

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 2>the truth? And like I said, today's episode is all

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:05.519
<v Speaker 2>about expectations.

0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:06.520
<v Speaker 1>What do we expect?

0:03:06.600 --> 0:03:08.480
<v Speaker 2>You know, do we expect more from men that we

0:03:08.520 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 2>do from women in relationships? Now that's a good point.

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 2>What is a high value man or woman?

0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:16.399
<v Speaker 1>Can you guys let me know on YouTube?

0:03:16.680 --> 0:03:19.680
<v Speaker 2>Go there on exactly amount of on the YouTube and

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:20.959
<v Speaker 2>give me your opinion.

0:03:21.400 --> 0:03:24.239
<v Speaker 1>What do you consider a high value woman or man?

0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:26.919
<v Speaker 2>Anyways, I also want to go back to this when

0:03:26.919 --> 0:03:29.400
<v Speaker 2>it comes to relationships, right, I don't know. Tell me

0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:32.280
<v Speaker 2>if I'm wrong. When it comes to expect to relationships.

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.840
<v Speaker 2>Do we expect more from men in a religion or

0:03:34.880 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 2>from a woman? When I say that, I feel like

0:03:36.960 --> 0:03:39.320
<v Speaker 2>a lot of women correct me if I'm wrong. A

0:03:39.320 --> 0:03:41.640
<v Speaker 2>lot of women are looking for a man that's over

0:03:41.760 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 2>six five. He's speed, he's intellectual, he's respectful.

0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:49.840
<v Speaker 1>He's you know, his high. His hygieneus at a thousand.

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:52.360
<v Speaker 2>He goes to the gym every day, he wastes up

0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:55.240
<v Speaker 2>in the morning, he does his bed, he has a Ferrari.

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:57.520
<v Speaker 2>His bank account is like I don't know how many

0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:00.520
<v Speaker 2>millions of dollars. And I feel like that it's expectations

0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 2>in many occasions from women what they expected a man

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.720
<v Speaker 2>sometimes can be a little bit okay, let's be a

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:09.320
<v Speaker 2>little bit more realistic, is it me? But then again,

0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:11.560
<v Speaker 2>I also feel like, can you have your cake and

0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.120
<v Speaker 2>eat it too? There are men out there that are

0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:16.200
<v Speaker 2>like that. Bet, you have to mind me. I'm not

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.560
<v Speaker 2>go searching. It's like pay the lottery, like the possibilities

0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:20.960
<v Speaker 2>of you pointing it. And then on top of that,

0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:24.120
<v Speaker 2>a man who's loyal, you know that he's faithful, that

0:04:24.240 --> 0:04:25.799
<v Speaker 2>you know he's gonna be with you forever and everything

0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:28.599
<v Speaker 2>he's ever gonna cheat. And then you know he loves

0:04:28.600 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 2>your mother, and he loves your children if you have kids,

0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:36.320
<v Speaker 2>and then he'd be saygun the pause. Where are these

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:40.200
<v Speaker 2>men that supposedly women have these standards for that you're

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:42.880
<v Speaker 2>supposed to find a lot of women are just out

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.920
<v Speaker 2>here sitting around waiting for that guy to come. Where

0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:47.760
<v Speaker 2>the hell is he supposed to be at the same

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:49.080
<v Speaker 2>way that I feel that a lot of men are

0:04:49.080 --> 0:04:52.919
<v Speaker 2>expecting these women that are fine as hell. You know,

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:56.280
<v Speaker 2>their bodies are perfectly no stretch marks, no selling light,

0:04:56.520 --> 0:04:57.960
<v Speaker 2>boobs held all the way up.

0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.880
<v Speaker 1>To her freaking chin. You know, her bud is round

0:05:00.880 --> 0:05:01.359
<v Speaker 1>and bubbly.

0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:03.919
<v Speaker 2>She cooks, she cleans, she does the bed, she you

0:05:03.960 --> 0:05:05.599
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying, handles you as soon as you

0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:06.360
<v Speaker 2>come from work.

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:08.920
<v Speaker 1>That she you know, has money, and it takes you

0:05:09.000 --> 0:05:09.520
<v Speaker 1>out and pays.

0:05:09.720 --> 0:05:13.240
<v Speaker 2>Where the hell have we gone to the point that

0:05:13.360 --> 0:05:17.480
<v Speaker 2>now we both have these high, unrealistic expectations from each other.

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:20.120
<v Speaker 2>Then now I feel like it's so much harder for

0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:23.919
<v Speaker 2>women to have real, like realistic relationship in men as well,

0:05:24.440 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I feel like it's harder for men to be in

0:05:26.000 --> 0:05:27.200
<v Speaker 2>a stable relationship.

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:28.480
<v Speaker 1>It's my opinion.

0:05:28.680 --> 0:05:32.279
<v Speaker 2>I also feel that even porn men that watch porn,

0:05:32.720 --> 0:05:35.760
<v Speaker 2>women that watch porn whatever. I watch it myself, but

0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:40.599
<v Speaker 2>I feel like even that part that has been so normalized,

0:05:40.760 --> 0:05:43.479
<v Speaker 2>from only fans to social media to everything, you know,

0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:46.720
<v Speaker 2>being overly sexualized, I think that that also has affected

0:05:46.720 --> 0:05:50.440
<v Speaker 2>the standards of what we expect in a relationship. We

0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.920
<v Speaker 2>expect the women to, oh, she's gonna, you know, do this,

0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:56.040
<v Speaker 2>and she's gonna be a porn star and she's gonna.

0:05:55.839 --> 0:05:56.640
<v Speaker 1>Circus, so lay me.

0:05:56.839 --> 0:05:58.840
<v Speaker 2>And then the guy is supposed to do this and

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:00.600
<v Speaker 2>do that, and he's supposed to look like this, and

0:06:00.960 --> 0:06:04.160
<v Speaker 2>wait a second. I feel like what has happened to

0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:05.839
<v Speaker 2>relationships these days?

0:06:06.480 --> 0:06:09.080
<v Speaker 1>I feel that social media has also affected so much.

0:06:09.080 --> 0:06:11.279
<v Speaker 2>And this is only but my opinion, we're so busy

0:06:11.320 --> 0:06:15.599
<v Speaker 2>looking at all these fake photoshop, face tuned relationships on

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:18.880
<v Speaker 2>social media, about how everybody has this pertur relationship. The

0:06:18.960 --> 0:06:21.919
<v Speaker 2>dinners are so expensive and fabulous, that they're you know,

0:06:21.920 --> 0:06:24.239
<v Speaker 2>they're doing TikTok dances all day together.

0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:27.039
<v Speaker 1>They're here a resorts and da da la dah. You

0:06:27.080 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>know they they bought a house together.

0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:32.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying that it's not possible, but how much

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 2>of it is it truly realistic? How many of these relationships,

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:38.040
<v Speaker 2>how many of these you know couples are posting when

0:06:38.040 --> 0:06:40.839
<v Speaker 2>they argue, when they wake up looking you know, crunchy

0:06:40.880 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 2>as hell, when you know the bills aren't being paid.

0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:45.839
<v Speaker 1>When they have disagreements.

0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:48.479
<v Speaker 2>How many of us are really looking at the real

0:06:48.560 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 2>part of what a quote unquote relationship should look like.

0:06:52.720 --> 0:06:55.839
<v Speaker 2>So that's why I feel personally that these standards of

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 2>what men expect in a relationship and what women expect

0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:02.760
<v Speaker 2>are so realistic. Then now everybody just feels so much

0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:06.719
<v Speaker 2>more comfortable being single and having all these options. Something

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.520
<v Speaker 2>else I've heard is that obviously in your youth you

0:07:09.600 --> 0:07:12.400
<v Speaker 2>want to solidify and find a partner, right because the

0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:15.360
<v Speaker 2>older you get, Supposedly a lot of people will say.

0:07:15.280 --> 0:07:16.559
<v Speaker 1>That it's harder to find someone.

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:19.600
<v Speaker 2>Why because now you no longer which is okay, you

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:21.920
<v Speaker 2>can smell and see through the bullshit you no longer

0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:24.400
<v Speaker 2>put up with a lot of things. You confront things

0:07:24.400 --> 0:07:27.440
<v Speaker 2>straight to the point, and now maybe it'll be you know,

0:07:27.480 --> 0:07:29.200
<v Speaker 2>a little bit harder for you to find someone. But

0:07:29.720 --> 0:07:33.800
<v Speaker 2>with that being said, I just feel like I don't

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 2>know what's happening. I feel like if we don't figure

0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:38.360
<v Speaker 2>out ways of even having we don't even listen to

0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:39.080
<v Speaker 2>the elderly anymore.

0:07:39.080 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 1>We don't even listen to our elders anymore for advice.

0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:44.240
<v Speaker 2>Those relationships that used to left in the last forty

0:07:44.320 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 2>sixty years, now it's like you date for a couple

0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:48.240
<v Speaker 2>of years, that things don't work out, then you're ready

0:07:48.280 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 2>to step out. It shouldn't be that way. We found

0:07:59.400 --> 0:08:02.400
<v Speaker 2>a study by the University of Michigan and the University

0:08:02.480 --> 0:08:06.440
<v Speaker 2>of Texas at Austin which measured the expectations and standards

0:08:06.440 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 2>of potential romantic partners.

0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:11.160
<v Speaker 1>And let me tell you what they said.

0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:13.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna read you later, I want you to catch

0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.840
<v Speaker 2>it up. But what they said was crazy. I also

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:18.920
<v Speaker 2>want to give you, you know, my personal thoughts, like I've

0:08:18.920 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 2>said before, on how I feel about this. But like

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:23.360
<v Speaker 2>I said before, I want you guys to also go

0:08:23.560 --> 0:08:26.280
<v Speaker 2>and give me your opinion on the YouTube channel Goal subscribe,

0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Go right now, go to the YouTube channel exactly a'm

0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>matat and tell me how you feel about it. Have

0:08:32.080 --> 0:08:33.920
<v Speaker 2>you ever felt that you've been in a relationship where

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:36.000
<v Speaker 2>your partner has expected too much from you based off

0:08:36.000 --> 0:08:39.320
<v Speaker 2>social media, based off TV, based off what their mother,

0:08:39.440 --> 0:08:40.840
<v Speaker 2>their father, their friends.

0:08:40.559 --> 0:08:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Tell you, you know, tell them that you should be. Have

0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:45.280
<v Speaker 1>they ever compared you to.

0:08:45.320 --> 0:08:49.680
<v Speaker 2>Like Meganita's you know wife or Menganito's you know husband. Oh,

0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Fulanito does this for her? Fulanita does that?

0:08:52.559 --> 0:08:53.839
<v Speaker 1>Like? Have they ever done that.

0:08:53.800 --> 0:08:56.280
<v Speaker 2>To you that you feel like, yo, their relationship is theirs?

0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.480
<v Speaker 2>Why are you comparing what we got going on.

0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.880
<v Speaker 1>To what they have going on? And just because you

0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:02.840
<v Speaker 1>see that part, that doesn't mean that that's the truth

0:09:02.880 --> 0:09:06.280
<v Speaker 1>of what their relationship is. That's just part of it.

0:09:06.320 --> 0:09:07.240
<v Speaker 1>Is it me or not?

0:09:08.080 --> 0:09:08.320
<v Speaker 2>Right?

0:09:08.559 --> 0:09:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I also feel like the physical.

0:09:11.000 --> 0:09:15.240
<v Speaker 2>Attraction for your partner, the standards have also changed so

0:09:15.440 --> 0:09:18.760
<v Speaker 2>much because we have these expectations of you know, you're

0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:20.640
<v Speaker 2>supposed to have a six pack, and you're supposed to

0:09:20.679 --> 0:09:22.200
<v Speaker 2>have you know, your body's supposed to be all this,

0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:25.360
<v Speaker 2>But in a real solidified relationship at one point, the

0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:29.880
<v Speaker 2>possibilities of your body changing are one thousand percent happening.

0:09:30.280 --> 0:09:32.120
<v Speaker 2>Does that mean that you stop loving the person that

0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:34.559
<v Speaker 2>you're with? Does that mean that you automatically go out

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:38.079
<v Speaker 2>there and cheat? How are you supposed to handle that?

0:09:38.480 --> 0:09:40.720
<v Speaker 2>How are you supposed to stay in love with your partner?

0:09:41.200 --> 0:09:42.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. How are you supposed to stay in

0:09:42.559 --> 0:09:43.120
<v Speaker 1>love with your partner?

0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 2>When you see you know, people on social media consistently

0:09:46.280 --> 0:09:50.800
<v Speaker 2>throwing this overly sexualized images of what oh if this

0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:52.960
<v Speaker 2>doesn't work out, just go to the next person, Go

0:09:53.040 --> 0:09:55.080
<v Speaker 2>to the next person. But all these people that you

0:09:55.080 --> 0:09:57.800
<v Speaker 2>see on social media giving you advice on if she

0:09:57.920 --> 0:09:59.240
<v Speaker 2>ain't this, then drop her.

0:09:59.440 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 1>If he is that, then dropper. Then you'll see.

0:10:02.000 --> 0:10:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Those same people ending up being lonely as hell in

0:10:04.520 --> 0:10:07.200
<v Speaker 2>their house, still trying to figure it out.

0:10:07.360 --> 0:10:10.360
<v Speaker 1>So no, so they give you do whatever you think.

0:10:10.200 --> 0:10:11.840
<v Speaker 2>That is right, and if you really love somebody, you

0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.560
<v Speaker 2>work things out physically, you're not you know, you feel like,

0:10:14.559 --> 0:10:16.760
<v Speaker 2>oh me, nah, you've let yourself down a little bit.

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:20.120
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk it out as partners. But don't fall for this.

0:10:20.640 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 1>I am a woman of value.

0:10:22.000 --> 0:10:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Therefore, at this point in my life, if you don't

0:10:24.720 --> 0:10:27.120
<v Speaker 2>look like William Levy, if you don't look like rapid

0:10:27.160 --> 0:10:29.280
<v Speaker 2>if you don't look like you know Michael B.

0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:31.080
<v Speaker 1>Jordan's Yeah, I can't do it.

0:10:31.559 --> 0:10:34.280
<v Speaker 2>I feel like we're falling into this trap where we're

0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 2>supposed to women have become so you know, independent. Shout

0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:40.880
<v Speaker 2>outs to all the independent feminist women of the shout

0:10:40.880 --> 0:10:42.920
<v Speaker 2>outs to you, a to each his own. I'm just

0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 2>giving my personal opinion. We become so independent and we

0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:48.560
<v Speaker 2>don't need no men, and we don't need this, and

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 2>we don't need that that at the end, we're we're

0:10:50.800 --> 0:10:53.280
<v Speaker 2>finding a lot of like the real conversations that are

0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:56.120
<v Speaker 2>happening behind closed doors. We're finding a lot of lonely

0:10:56.559 --> 0:10:58.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, I don't want to say bitter, A lot

0:10:58.080 --> 0:11:01.920
<v Speaker 2>of lonely, hurt women, you know, the same way that

0:11:01.920 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 2>we find a lot of hurt, angry men. There's just

0:11:05.760 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 2>so much disconnection in this generation that I don't know

0:11:09.280 --> 0:11:12.960
<v Speaker 2>where we're supposed to go from here. Financially, let's go

0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:15.280
<v Speaker 2>to that too. I find a lot of men that

0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:17.959
<v Speaker 2>are looking for women that are financially stable. Yeah, it's

0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:20.640
<v Speaker 2>really nice to find you a girl that she's a boss.

0:11:20.880 --> 0:11:22.600
<v Speaker 2>She got you know what I'm saying, She got her money,

0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:24.640
<v Speaker 2>she got her apartment, her house, she got this, she

0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:26.360
<v Speaker 2>got that, Da da da da, But do you know

0:11:26.400 --> 0:11:29.920
<v Speaker 2>what that also comes with? And I and I saw

0:11:29.920 --> 0:11:31.960
<v Speaker 2>something on social media that I would agree with one

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:35.920
<v Speaker 2>hundred percent. Most women don't want to have masculine energy,

0:11:36.920 --> 0:11:39.040
<v Speaker 2>but a lot of us have had to, you know,

0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:43.000
<v Speaker 2>get you know, become that masculine energy because we haven't

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:45.200
<v Speaker 2>been able to find someone. And even when you do

0:11:45.720 --> 0:11:48.760
<v Speaker 2>find a man, in many occasions, when they don't stand

0:11:48.840 --> 0:11:50.480
<v Speaker 2>up to the plate, when they don't stand up to

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:54.640
<v Speaker 2>what a man should be doing, you know, provide protect

0:11:54.880 --> 0:11:57.360
<v Speaker 2>all of them out that we already know, then.

0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.040
<v Speaker 1>You feel like you have to fill in that void.

0:11:59.440 --> 0:12:01.480
<v Speaker 2>The same way when we have a lot of men

0:12:01.720 --> 0:12:04.719
<v Speaker 2>that are being raised by Please forgive me. There's a

0:12:04.720 --> 0:12:06.320
<v Speaker 2>lot of mothers out there that do a great job,

0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:08.520
<v Speaker 2>but there's a lot of mothers out there get song

0:12:08.920 --> 0:12:11.480
<v Speaker 2>om and apolo ad ass everything that your son does.

0:12:11.480 --> 0:12:14.400
<v Speaker 2>You're right there to oh, baby, everything's gonna be okay.

0:12:14.640 --> 0:12:17.079
<v Speaker 2>You know that he's doing wrong. You see him cheating

0:12:17.080 --> 0:12:19.200
<v Speaker 2>on his wife, You see him, you know, cheating on

0:12:19.240 --> 0:12:21.720
<v Speaker 2>his girlfriend, doing all types of and you don't say anything.

0:12:22.000 --> 0:12:24.680
<v Speaker 2>You're creating a there's a whole generation of a lot

0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.920
<v Speaker 2>of soft, gentle tender, you know, with a lot of

0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:32.760
<v Speaker 2>feminine energy men that are not stepping.

0:12:32.440 --> 0:12:33.400
<v Speaker 1>Up to the plate as well.

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:37.960
<v Speaker 2>So the roles have somewhat changed, and we find a

0:12:37.960 --> 0:12:41.120
<v Speaker 2>lot of men no longer wanting to be providers, no

0:12:41.160 --> 0:12:44.559
<v Speaker 2>longer looking to protect. No, they're looking to be protected.

0:12:44.960 --> 0:12:48.960
<v Speaker 2>They're looking to be financially you know, and invested in.

0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:50.839
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not saying that if you're a good man,

0:12:50.880 --> 0:12:54.040
<v Speaker 2>you don't deserve to get treated with gifts and love

0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:57.080
<v Speaker 2>and appreciation and a lot of beautiful things and be

0:12:57.240 --> 0:13:00.520
<v Speaker 2>treated and be shown you know that I love you,

0:13:00.600 --> 0:13:03.320
<v Speaker 2>that I appreciate that I am. I'm not talking about

0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.640
<v Speaker 2>they could go buy him some socks and some boxers

0:13:05.800 --> 0:13:08.280
<v Speaker 2>and some No, go out there and put some effort

0:13:08.480 --> 0:13:10.840
<v Speaker 2>into your man as well. If he's holding you down,

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:13.440
<v Speaker 2>if he's tired of working, if he's providing, if when

0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:15.120
<v Speaker 2>something is wrong you feel like you can go to

0:13:15.200 --> 0:13:17.000
<v Speaker 2>your man and he got your back, or he's going

0:13:17.040 --> 0:13:19.679
<v Speaker 2>to stand up to the plate. That man deserves every

0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:24.240
<v Speaker 2>little bit of respect and love and appreciation etolo emas.

0:13:24.559 --> 0:13:26.960
<v Speaker 2>But then there's also in this new generation a lot

0:13:27.000 --> 0:13:29.440
<v Speaker 2>of men that are looking for a woman a's a

0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:32.840
<v Speaker 2>boss to just you know, all I got really is

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:36.920
<v Speaker 2>is this piece of a body to provide, you know

0:13:36.960 --> 0:13:39.440
<v Speaker 2>what I'm saying. And with that being said, because I

0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:42.600
<v Speaker 2>look good, because I'm high, because I'm this, then you're

0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:46.080
<v Speaker 2>just supposed to do for me. No, So then that's

0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:49.040
<v Speaker 2>what we find so many women becoming financially independent and

0:13:49.080 --> 0:13:50.960
<v Speaker 2>no longer feeling that they like they need a man.

0:13:51.240 --> 0:13:53.679
<v Speaker 2>We find so many women now that just feel like, oh,

0:13:53.720 --> 0:13:55.880
<v Speaker 2>I can just have as many one nine stands, as

0:13:55.920 --> 0:13:57.520
<v Speaker 2>many things as I want, and now I'm the one

0:13:57.520 --> 0:14:01.400
<v Speaker 2>who's empowering myself. I'm the one taking control and blah

0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:04.240
<v Speaker 2>blah blah, all the nonsense that I personally don't believe.

0:14:04.760 --> 0:14:05.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe that.

0:14:05.679 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 2>I hear a lot of women saying it, I do

0:14:07.559 --> 0:14:09.079
<v Speaker 2>it because I want to, I do it because I'm empowered,

0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:11.560
<v Speaker 2>or do it because of my body. I personally don't

0:14:11.600 --> 0:14:13.760
<v Speaker 2>believe that any woman at the end of the day,

0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:16.600
<v Speaker 2>realistically just wants to be jumping from one bed to

0:14:16.640 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 2>the other just because you have the power to do it,

0:14:19.560 --> 0:14:21.280
<v Speaker 2>you know, because if you give it up, they're gonna

0:14:21.280 --> 0:14:21.520
<v Speaker 2>take it.

0:14:21.600 --> 0:14:24.400
<v Speaker 1>Period. If you're out here exposing it. That's just what's

0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:24.960
<v Speaker 1>gonna happen.

0:14:25.120 --> 0:14:27.240
<v Speaker 2>The same way that there's men out there that you know,

0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:30.240
<v Speaker 2>there's women who if you look good and you're giving it.

0:14:30.240 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 1>Up, a lot of them would just take it.

0:14:32.080 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 2>But where is the love, the appreciation, the comfort, the

0:14:35.840 --> 0:14:40.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, moral and spiritual and mental support. Where is

0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:49.520
<v Speaker 2>where is the foundation of that? Let's talk about being faithful,

0:14:50.240 --> 0:14:53.280
<v Speaker 2>the faithful aspect of relationships. Do we expect men to

0:14:53.320 --> 0:14:57.000
<v Speaker 2>be more faithful than women in relationships with than men?

0:14:57.280 --> 0:14:59.560
<v Speaker 2>I feel like men in many occasions have been caught

0:15:00.120 --> 0:15:04.480
<v Speaker 2>more cheating and women are have stayed. And according to

0:15:04.680 --> 0:15:07.920
<v Speaker 2>a lot of men, these high value men, we're supposed

0:15:07.920 --> 0:15:11.280
<v Speaker 2>to allow men to cheat and not even cheats just

0:15:11.400 --> 0:15:14.040
<v Speaker 2>you know, they're in relationship, not even in a relationship. Kay,

0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:16.920
<v Speaker 2>you're the main one, and I'm just you know, it's

0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.280
<v Speaker 2>just sex. It doesn't mean anything. I'm just you know,

0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:21.200
<v Speaker 2>I'm hogh and I got money and I'm a high

0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:23.680
<v Speaker 2>value man and you know the women want me and

0:15:23.760 --> 0:15:26.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm just gonna wait pause. So are we no longer

0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 2>holding each other accountable for being respectful and loyal into relationships?

0:15:30.800 --> 0:15:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Are we just supposed to be you know, what I'm saying,

0:15:32.600 --> 0:15:36.640
<v Speaker 2>like just having sex here and there, and what does

0:15:36.640 --> 0:15:39.320
<v Speaker 2>that mean? So if you're a high value men and

0:15:39.400 --> 0:15:41.800
<v Speaker 2>you're allowed to have several women, does that mean that

0:15:41.880 --> 0:15:45.160
<v Speaker 2>high value women can also do the same. Not really,

0:15:45.240 --> 0:15:47.880
<v Speaker 2>because if they do it, which they physically can, will

0:15:47.920 --> 0:15:51.200
<v Speaker 2>society look at them the same? No, because even then

0:15:52.160 --> 0:15:55.440
<v Speaker 2>society has given us their own version of the standards

0:15:55.440 --> 0:15:57.840
<v Speaker 2>that we should be held upon. Just like when you

0:15:57.840 --> 0:15:59.800
<v Speaker 2>go to social media, the first thing that you see

0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 2>you see a rich.

0:16:01.480 --> 0:16:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Guy with a whole sack of women.

0:16:03.400 --> 0:16:06.680
<v Speaker 2>Anyways, we've seen many, many occasions where there is marriages

0:16:06.720 --> 0:16:10.040
<v Speaker 2>that work, you know, one husband, several wives, one wife,

0:16:10.080 --> 0:16:11.440
<v Speaker 2>several husbands.

0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:14.440
<v Speaker 1>But that's not the majority of society.

0:16:14.920 --> 0:16:17.120
<v Speaker 2>And even when you look at that, you see all

0:16:17.160 --> 0:16:19.840
<v Speaker 2>the negative comments that men and women have to say

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:22.160
<v Speaker 2>about a woman that you know that is surrounded by

0:16:22.240 --> 0:16:25.800
<v Speaker 2>several men. I don't know, I just feel like I

0:16:25.800 --> 0:16:28.160
<v Speaker 2>feel like social media affects a lot of relationships. The

0:16:28.160 --> 0:16:30.920
<v Speaker 2>things that you see visually every day does affect what

0:16:31.120 --> 0:16:33.360
<v Speaker 2>is being programmed and put into your mindset.

0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:35.560
<v Speaker 1>We barely see, you know, a lot of.

0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Relationships or people telling you to be realistic with your

0:16:40.040 --> 0:16:42.400
<v Speaker 2>standards and I feel like you have the rest that

0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:44.920
<v Speaker 2>have as high standards as you want. But when you

0:16:44.960 --> 0:16:48.040
<v Speaker 2>see yourself, you know, with're fifty sixty years old, still lonely,

0:16:48.560 --> 0:16:51.440
<v Speaker 2>with no relationship, trying to figure it out. Then you know,

0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:54.680
<v Speaker 2>I guess that's just on you, because I think we

0:16:54.720 --> 0:17:05.240
<v Speaker 2>also have to understand that nobody is perfect, no relationship

0:17:05.280 --> 0:17:08.080
<v Speaker 2>is perfect. You gotta work with That's what marriage is,

0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:10.520
<v Speaker 2>That's what a relationship is. That's what having a partner

0:17:10.600 --> 0:17:13.920
<v Speaker 2>is about. Is working through things. You work things out,

0:17:14.000 --> 0:17:16.480
<v Speaker 2>you get to know each other, your partners in life.

0:17:16.560 --> 0:17:19.520
<v Speaker 2>You're looking for a partner in life. We're not meant

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.119
<v Speaker 2>to my understanding, we're not meant to get you know,

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.960
<v Speaker 2>we're born by ourselves, but God has put us so

0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:26.400
<v Speaker 2>that we can find someone else.

0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:29.160
<v Speaker 1>Everyone needs that physical affection.

0:17:29.480 --> 0:17:32.160
<v Speaker 2>And it's not just the sexual you know, affection, it's

0:17:32.200 --> 0:17:33.880
<v Speaker 2>the emotional affection.

0:17:33.840 --> 0:17:36.480
<v Speaker 1>You know. And I just I don't know, is it me?

0:17:36.600 --> 0:17:38.800
<v Speaker 2>I feel like my mom raised me old school and

0:17:38.840 --> 0:17:40.400
<v Speaker 2>I'd be like, but I get don't saying not They

0:17:40.400 --> 0:17:43.200
<v Speaker 2>all this crap about morals and respect you to Lina,

0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:44.800
<v Speaker 2>when at the end of the day, people.

0:17:44.560 --> 0:17:45.760
<v Speaker 1>Don't even use it anymore.

0:17:46.560 --> 0:17:49.719
<v Speaker 2>Is it just me These expectations may be influenced by

0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:52.080
<v Speaker 2>so much, so much of the things that's just around us,

0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:54.560
<v Speaker 2>including social media, you know, which I like I said before,

0:17:54.640 --> 0:17:56.200
<v Speaker 2>I think it pays a huge part in the way

0:17:56.240 --> 0:17:59.480
<v Speaker 2>that people behave their habits, how men and women are

0:17:59.600 --> 0:18:00.760
<v Speaker 2>viewed by.

0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Those who consume all this action on social media, I

0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:05.480
<v Speaker 1>don't know.

0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.560
<v Speaker 2>Without also being said, what does it mean these days

0:18:08.600 --> 0:18:12.240
<v Speaker 2>to actually be in a relationship? So here goes a question,

0:18:12.520 --> 0:18:15.920
<v Speaker 2>what does it mean for us in our you know, generation,

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:18.639
<v Speaker 2>to be in a relationship? What is your definition of

0:18:18.640 --> 0:18:22.040
<v Speaker 2>being in a relationship? What it means that we should

0:18:22.080 --> 0:18:25.440
<v Speaker 2>be aware of our expectations and standards and how they

0:18:25.520 --> 0:18:28.800
<v Speaker 2>may differ from those of our partners.

0:18:29.000 --> 0:18:29.520
<v Speaker 1>I feel like.

0:18:29.480 --> 0:18:31.560
<v Speaker 2>Even now, when you when you date, when you go out,

0:18:32.000 --> 0:18:34.840
<v Speaker 2>you have to specify what you're looking for and what

0:18:34.880 --> 0:18:39.159
<v Speaker 2>a relationship exactly is, because everybody has their own version

0:18:39.200 --> 0:18:42.200
<v Speaker 2>of it. Can we're just going out, We're just talking,

0:18:42.520 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 2>we're just dating, we're getting to know each other, we're

0:18:46.040 --> 0:18:49.720
<v Speaker 2>you know, we're just friends. We are in an open relationship,

0:18:49.920 --> 0:18:52.679
<v Speaker 2>we are in a committed relationship. So even now you

0:18:52.760 --> 0:18:57.280
<v Speaker 2>have to specify what exactly is it that you're in Listen.

0:18:57.320 --> 0:19:00.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm not here to judge anyone because I'm only giving

0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:01.360
<v Speaker 2>but my opinion.

0:19:01.840 --> 0:19:02.360
<v Speaker 1>And like I.

0:19:02.320 --> 0:19:05.639
<v Speaker 2>Said, I wanted to talk about these high expectations of

0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:08.440
<v Speaker 2>men and women because every day I see more videos

0:19:08.440 --> 0:19:10.879
<v Speaker 2>on social media Facebook, here and there, all over the

0:19:10.880 --> 0:19:13.919
<v Speaker 2>page Instagram where people are talking about what women should

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:16.359
<v Speaker 2>look like, what women should stand up for, what women

0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:21.959
<v Speaker 2>should expect from a man in every aspect financially, you know, morally, physically,

0:19:22.160 --> 0:19:25.200
<v Speaker 2>all these standards of what we expect men to do

0:19:25.280 --> 0:19:27.919
<v Speaker 2>and provide for us. In many occasions, we're no longer

0:19:27.960 --> 0:19:30.560
<v Speaker 2>talking about providing as far as I need to to,

0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:33.320
<v Speaker 2>you know, take care of the family, take care of

0:19:33.359 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 2>the household, while as a woman, I'm gonna also hold

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:37.680
<v Speaker 2>you down and I'm gonna take care of this. If

0:19:37.720 --> 0:19:40.400
<v Speaker 2>you you know you do this, then my role will

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:42.440
<v Speaker 2>be to do that. Or we can discuss it and

0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:44.560
<v Speaker 2>then we both do this for each other.

0:19:44.640 --> 0:19:45.080
<v Speaker 1>Whatever.

0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:50.560
<v Speaker 2>Now, I just feel like there's there's so many distorted

0:19:50.640 --> 0:19:54.240
<v Speaker 2>versions of we're all expecting and looking for these billionaires,

0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:56.960
<v Speaker 2>these millionaires. They're just gonna have us on yachts and

0:19:57.040 --> 0:19:59.639
<v Speaker 2>private planes and they're gonna be doing all these things,

0:19:59.680 --> 0:20:03.119
<v Speaker 2>and you know, we're we're now giving more importance and

0:20:03.200 --> 0:20:06.360
<v Speaker 2>value to a burken bag and Chanel bags and all

0:20:06.359 --> 0:20:09.640
<v Speaker 2>these other crap and all the ferraris and the bedleys

0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:12.679
<v Speaker 2>and all this other stuff that we're not you know,

0:20:12.720 --> 0:20:15.240
<v Speaker 2>we're not really talking about like are you respectful?

0:20:15.359 --> 0:20:17.840
<v Speaker 1>Can you really you know, will you love me and

0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:18.520
<v Speaker 1>my family?

0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:21.119
<v Speaker 2>Can you be a good father figure to our children

0:20:21.160 --> 0:20:24.200
<v Speaker 2>if we have children, like you know, like looking at

0:20:24.240 --> 0:20:28.760
<v Speaker 2>all the other things besides the materialistic part, where does

0:20:28.800 --> 0:20:32.400
<v Speaker 2>that go? Do we appreciate man for all the other

0:20:32.480 --> 0:20:34.239
<v Speaker 2>things that they can bring to the table, that they

0:20:34.240 --> 0:20:36.400
<v Speaker 2>can provide, that they can do, that they that they

0:20:36.440 --> 0:20:37.720
<v Speaker 2>are willing and meant to do.

0:20:38.000 --> 0:20:40.840
<v Speaker 1>Are we looking at their potential and.

0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:43.600
<v Speaker 2>The way that they can grow with us in a partnership,

0:20:44.440 --> 0:20:47.119
<v Speaker 2>you know, knowing that they're not perfect, but they're willing

0:20:47.200 --> 0:20:49.000
<v Speaker 2>to try, that they're willing to love. I feel like

0:20:49.320 --> 0:20:52.000
<v Speaker 2>in many occasions we let go of those people that

0:20:52.480 --> 0:20:55.600
<v Speaker 2>have truly shown us that they're willing to sacrifice for us,

0:20:55.600 --> 0:20:58.000
<v Speaker 2>that they really do love us, But they may.

0:20:57.840 --> 0:20:59.480
<v Speaker 1>Financially not be there.

0:20:59.680 --> 0:21:02.440
<v Speaker 2>They may not physically be as hot or be the

0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:05.200
<v Speaker 2>version of men or women that you expect. But at

0:21:05.200 --> 0:21:07.760
<v Speaker 2>the end of the day, a lot of those people,

0:21:08.240 --> 0:21:10.320
<v Speaker 2>at the long run, I'm sure you've thought about them,

0:21:10.400 --> 0:21:13.120
<v Speaker 2>like this person really loved me, this person really cared

0:21:13.119 --> 0:21:13.480
<v Speaker 2>about me.

0:21:13.680 --> 0:21:16.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure this person today.

0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:19.520
<v Speaker 2>We would have been this far in life because of X, Y,

0:21:19.600 --> 0:21:22.480
<v Speaker 2>and Z, but because of your standards that in many

0:21:22.480 --> 0:21:23.960
<v Speaker 2>occasions can be unrealistic.

0:21:24.280 --> 0:21:26.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying don't have standards.

0:21:26.600 --> 0:21:31.399
<v Speaker 2>I'm saying, don't let social media, don't let society influence

0:21:31.520 --> 0:21:34.680
<v Speaker 2>you to the point that you end up by yourself

0:21:35.280 --> 0:21:38.200
<v Speaker 2>because or you end up with the wrong person because

0:21:38.240 --> 0:21:41.280
<v Speaker 2>of the quote unquote standards and the value that you

0:21:41.359 --> 0:21:43.639
<v Speaker 2>see yourself in there or that you're supposed to hold.

0:21:43.960 --> 0:21:46.760
<v Speaker 2>The same thing goes for women. There's so many good

0:21:46.960 --> 0:21:51.120
<v Speaker 2>men out there, because unfortunately I haven't found one myself

0:21:51.119 --> 0:21:54.200
<v Speaker 2>for me. But I can't discredit and say that there

0:21:54.320 --> 0:21:58.120
<v Speaker 2>isn't some men out there that are willing to give

0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:00.440
<v Speaker 2>you their last piece of bread, that are not willing

0:22:00.480 --> 0:22:02.919
<v Speaker 2>to work and sacrifice and be a good father figure

0:22:02.960 --> 0:22:06.000
<v Speaker 2>and love you or respect you and just give you

0:22:06.080 --> 0:22:08.920
<v Speaker 2>the world because I have seen it. I've seen that

0:22:09.040 --> 0:22:11.560
<v Speaker 2>happen for other women. It hasn't happened for me. Yet,

0:22:11.760 --> 0:22:13.479
<v Speaker 2>it doesn't mean that I've lost hope. It doesn't mean

0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:15.239
<v Speaker 2>that it's not going to happen. But it also does

0:22:15.359 --> 0:22:16.840
<v Speaker 2>mean that I might have to be a little bit

0:22:16.880 --> 0:22:21.080
<v Speaker 2>more flexible with my standards, right, I might have to

0:22:21.080 --> 0:22:24.679
<v Speaker 2>be a little bit more flexible and not I guess

0:22:25.080 --> 0:22:27.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if you're saying the word realistic is

0:22:27.160 --> 0:22:28.760
<v Speaker 2>the right term, but I might have to be a

0:22:28.800 --> 0:22:31.359
<v Speaker 2>little bit more flexible and say, you know what, you

0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:33.480
<v Speaker 2>may not have the X, Y and Z that I want,

0:22:33.480 --> 0:22:34.119
<v Speaker 2>it that I expect.

0:22:34.200 --> 0:22:36.440
<v Speaker 1>Maybe we can work on that together. Maybe we can

0:22:36.480 --> 0:22:37.360
<v Speaker 1>build that together.

0:22:37.800 --> 0:22:40.639
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you have the potential that I'm looking for to

0:22:40.840 --> 0:22:41.720
<v Speaker 2>do those things.

0:22:42.040 --> 0:22:44.120
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know. I just see that a lot

0:22:44.119 --> 0:22:45.960
<v Speaker 1>of us are getting lost in the mix.

0:22:46.240 --> 0:22:48.440
<v Speaker 2>We're getting lost in the mix looking for this perfect

0:22:48.440 --> 0:22:52.000
<v Speaker 2>body and this perfect all this crap and perfection doesn't exist.

0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:55.879
<v Speaker 2>We got to be flexible and be aware, you know,

0:22:56.359 --> 0:22:59.920
<v Speaker 2>and be also respectful of your partners. You know they're

0:23:00.200 --> 0:23:02.679
<v Speaker 2>vision because they also have a vision and they have

0:23:02.760 --> 0:23:04.440
<v Speaker 2>their own standards for you as well.

0:23:04.640 --> 0:23:06.160
<v Speaker 1>But I think that communication is key.

0:23:06.240 --> 0:23:10.879
<v Speaker 2>Being able to just communicate and talk and negotiate those expectations,

0:23:11.160 --> 0:23:14.040
<v Speaker 2>be willing to figure out you know what, you don't

0:23:14.040 --> 0:23:16.000
<v Speaker 2>have this, I don't have that, but we both have

0:23:16.119 --> 0:23:17.360
<v Speaker 2>this and we're willing to do that.

0:23:17.400 --> 0:23:19.359
<v Speaker 1>Does that make sense anyways?

0:23:20.400 --> 0:23:24.480
<v Speaker 2>Don't get yourself lost in the mix of this perfection.

0:23:25.320 --> 0:23:28.000
<v Speaker 1>We don't live in a movie. We don't live you

0:23:28.000 --> 0:23:28.720
<v Speaker 1>know this TV.

0:23:29.359 --> 0:23:33.159
<v Speaker 2>Like I said before, photoshop, social media, picture this, you

0:23:33.200 --> 0:23:37.200
<v Speaker 2>know TikTok version of what a relationship is is not realistic.

0:23:37.280 --> 0:23:37.960
<v Speaker 1>It's not true.

0:23:38.000 --> 0:23:41.040
<v Speaker 2>Remember then, when people show you something on social media,

0:23:41.080 --> 0:23:43.040
<v Speaker 2>they're showing you what they want you to see.

0:23:43.320 --> 0:23:46.080
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't mean that that is the truth, you understand.

0:23:46.760 --> 0:23:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Don't let society and social media make you lose someone

0:23:50.720 --> 0:23:53.359
<v Speaker 2>that really cares for you because you're trying to be

0:23:53.520 --> 0:23:57.040
<v Speaker 2>like on social media or because you're trying to I

0:23:57.160 --> 0:24:00.280
<v Speaker 2>saw that. No no, no, no, no no y. What

0:24:00.400 --> 0:24:03.760
<v Speaker 2>works for you? Do what's best for you and be honest.

0:24:04.160 --> 0:24:06.840
<v Speaker 2>Be honest with yourself as well, because I'm sure that

0:24:06.920 --> 0:24:09.000
<v Speaker 2>all the things that you're requesting and that you want

0:24:09.080 --> 0:24:11.040
<v Speaker 2>from somebody else, do you have that?

0:24:11.520 --> 0:24:12.440
<v Speaker 1>Can you provide?

0:24:12.480 --> 0:24:12.600
<v Speaker 2>Then?

0:24:13.480 --> 0:24:17.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you can't? Those standards that you want? You want X,

0:24:17.359 --> 0:24:19.040
<v Speaker 1>Y and Z, But are you that?

0:24:19.760 --> 0:24:21.399
<v Speaker 2>Because I'm sure that the person that wants to be

0:24:21.480 --> 0:24:24.000
<v Speaker 2>with you may be also looking for X, Y and Z.

0:24:24.480 --> 0:24:27.959
<v Speaker 2>Can you provide those things? Can you be even if

0:24:28.000 --> 0:24:30.520
<v Speaker 2>a man is looking even if a woman is looking

0:24:30.600 --> 0:24:33.359
<v Speaker 2>for this millionaire that's like this and all these great

0:24:33.400 --> 0:24:35.040
<v Speaker 2>things that he comes from a good family, what do

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:37.639
<v Speaker 2>you think that man is looking for. Let's work on

0:24:37.680 --> 0:24:41.440
<v Speaker 2>ourselves before we start requesting and asking all types of

0:24:41.480 --> 0:24:44.760
<v Speaker 2>crazy things from other people that are coming into our lives.

0:24:45.000 --> 0:24:46.840
<v Speaker 1>Okay, let's be.

0:24:46.840 --> 0:24:49.040
<v Speaker 2>A little bit more realistic with these values and high

0:24:49.040 --> 0:24:52.480
<v Speaker 2>standards and not miss out on good opportunities and the

0:24:52.560 --> 0:24:54.959
<v Speaker 2>right people in our lives going crazy.

0:24:55.280 --> 0:24:57.760
<v Speaker 1>If you agree or disagree, just go ahead and let

0:24:57.800 --> 0:24:59.159
<v Speaker 1>me know. I want to know.

0:24:59.440 --> 0:25:01.520
