Be a better podcast that way, 18 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:11,160 Speaker 1: when you know what's funny is like you can think 19 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,920 Speaker 1: about that stuff, but as soon as the words start 20 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,320 Speaker 1: coming out of your mouth, that's when you get terry. 21 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 1: Does that happen with you too? Definitely? Yeah, I mean 22 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 1: I think most of the time, when when I have 23 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,839 Speaker 1: a big announcement or something really heavy on my heart, 24 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,320 Speaker 1: when I finally start speaking about is when it becomes true. 25 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: And you, I mean, I want you to share with 26 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: our listeners your story from the really from whatever perspective 27 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: you want. But you've waited to tell people for a 28 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: long time. Yeah, the slab a timeline on it. But 29 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: we've been dating for a few months, and I just, 30 00:01:43,440 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 1: you know, I think that we've always had so much 31 00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: scrutiny of our relation and ship in public, and I 32 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,360 Speaker 1: think we just kind of wanted to hide for a 33 00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: little bit, especially at the beginning, you know, during that 34 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 1: weird transition. It wasn't it wasn't a weird transition, but 35 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 1: to go from really good friends to boyfriend and girlfriend, 36 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: I guess things could go weary, but it definitely didn't. 37 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: It was the most natural transition ever. And now Jared's 38 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,399 Speaker 1: always like, can you believe a couple of months ago 39 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: we never kissed. We didn't kiss, I didn't touch you, 40 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I know that was kiss that was 41 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,920 Speaker 1: all on you, that was all you. And He's like, 42 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 1: I don't know why I didn't do this for so 43 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:30,520 Speaker 1: long and now you guys kiss, Yes, like with tongue 44 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: sometimes that's nice. Um, Actually, let's start at the beginning. 45 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,720 Speaker 1: You know, I'm not a huge tongue person. I mean 46 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: I watched you on Souls this season. I saw, all right, 47 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:46,839 Speaker 1: this is about Jared. Actually, all right, here's the thing. 48 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,919 Speaker 1: You came off Winner Games in a relationship with somebody, 49 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,360 Speaker 1: and I think everybody out there is going to be 50 00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: asking the timeline, and that's not necessarily important. There is 51 00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 1: no crossover. There is no weirdness here, no crossover. I 52 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 1: never cheated on Kevin or anything like that. Um, But 53 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 1: did Jerry talk about his feelings for me before everybody 54 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 1: witnessed it on the Winter Games? Yes? So all of 55 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:20,520 Speaker 1: this because it's such a long story, like there's three years. 56 00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:26,960 Speaker 1: There's two televised chapters in our story, and then there's 57 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:33,440 Speaker 1: another televised chapter of me individually. So we put together 58 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: an episode of my YouTube series, The Story of Us. 59 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 1: It's you know, the past season that aired in March 60 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: was all about different couples and the stories of how 61 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: they met and fell in love and all like the 62 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:49,840 Speaker 1: big significant points in their relationship. So I thought, what 63 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 1: better way to really explain all the nuances in our story, 64 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 1: because there are so many details and things that happened 65 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: that will make it all make way more sense to 66 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: Bachelor Nation why we weren't together and why we are 67 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: now once they watch this. So for everybody out there 68 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: listening right now, outside of all the television, outside of 69 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: the shows, you have a boyfriend. His name is Jared. 70 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: This is very personal to you, and I've I actually 71 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 1: uh have talked to a few people who have been 72 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:27,440 Speaker 1: around your relationship, um, and I didn't exactly know what 73 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:28,719 Speaker 1: was going on. I knew that you guys were together. 74 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:30,800 Speaker 1: I didn't know how serious it was, and it was weird. 75 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 1: When you asked me last week you said, it's going 76 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: really good, huht And I'm like, then, it's like going 77 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: better than good about like our kids and our literal 78 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:45,280 Speaker 1: rest of our lives together. And so this is very 79 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 1: real and very personal, and it's something that is really 80 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 1: intimate and has taken a while to get there. Actually, 81 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:51,960 Speaker 1: I want I want to start this whole thing because 82 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 1: we need to talk about it. Who is Jared?

What does it feel like? 185 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,120 Speaker 1: It feels great? Um? I texted him this morning and 186 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: I was like, it's finally out there. Obviously I can't 187 00:11:55,040 --> 00:11:58,719 Speaker 1: say who, but it's just I can't wait for the 188 00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,200 Speaker 1: season to start. First of all, be because I'm excited 189 00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: to see what I miss and I'm just excited for 190 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:05,560 Speaker 1: it all to plant and for everyone to see this 191 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,160 Speaker 1: time around it worked again so much more, and I'm 192 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:15,000 Speaker 1: just the happiest is that you look um glowing. I mean, 193 00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,040 Speaker 1: like I remember for me that first couple of hours 194 00:12:18,080 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 1: when you could actually release it, because it is it's 195 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,040 Speaker 1: it's it's a scary, you know, interviews are scary when 196 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,120 Speaker 1: you're hiding so much and I have no poker face, 197 00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 1: and so we were deciding to know how much do 198 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 1: we release, how much do we do we keep to ourselves? 199 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: And I'm like, look, anytime somebody asked me, I just 200 00:12:33,880 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: start smiling, and I can't always keep it together. So 201 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 1: it's good that it's finally out there. That's so funny 202 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,319 Speaker 1: that you say that, because my mom always tests whether 203 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 1: my sister and I like a guy or not by saying, 204 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:46,920 Speaker 1: can you say his name with a straight face? So 205 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: if I were to like, just you know, roll through 206 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: your guys right now, the one that you have the 207 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: big smile when you say his name, I would know 208 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,440 Speaker 1: who it was. But I'm going to cover my mouth 209 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,560 Speaker 1: the entire time. I want to be spoiler free though, 210 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:00,880 Speaker 1: so I'm going to look down. We're gonna run through 211 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:07,280 Speaker 1: Alex Blake, Chase, Chris. I will do that later. I 212 00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: would love to run through every guy on this list. 213 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,760 Speaker 1: And I'm telling you actually, I mean this is what 214 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,760 Speaker 1: our our second season of the Bachelorette, and I feel 215 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: like I'm getting better and better at judging these guys. 216 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 1: And she's got a good looking group. She does. I 217 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:23,079 Speaker 1: knew this from when I did interview with some of 218 00:13:23,160 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: your guys for Access before the season starting. I was like, 219 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:29,840 Speaker 1: wait a second, I had my work cut out for me. Yeah, 220 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 1: they're good, got a tan group. There's like this Jordan guy. 221 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:40,320 Speaker 1: He looks like he's gold Jordan, maybe wearing makeup. Jordan's 222 00:13:40,880 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 1: is a model. Yeah, he puts a lot of time 223 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 1: into his appearance and it works. Yeah, he hasn't time 224 00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: into the appearance. We called him Captain America for a while. 225 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,400 Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, that's accurate. I'm assuming you still don't 226 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: call him Captain America, do you. I think everybody will 227 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 1: know from the first episode that he is not your man. Um. 228 00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:05,360 Speaker 1: With that, let's move in. We have a lot of 229 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: listener questions, Ashley. Let's start off by asking a question 230 00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: from Katie. She said, why did you become the Bachelor 231 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:16,200 Speaker 1: instead of just marrying Ben? Instead? After we had you 232 00:14:16,200 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: on the podcast last week for the Vegas episode, everybody 233 00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 1: was like, I'm sure Becca is really happy with who 234 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: she picked during our season, but she and Ben are 235 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: so cute together, and I have to kind of agree. 236 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:27,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you play this one out, Becca. I 237 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 1: will say, so one of the places we went to, 238 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:33,560 Speaker 1: we say that this beautiful resort, and we were walking 239 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,280 Speaker 1: around and there was a guy who had just gotten 240 00:14:35,280 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 1: off a boat with his family, and I think he 241 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 1: was a little bit tipsy, and he was from Dunburn. 242 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 1: He's like, Ben's your guy? Go with Ben? And then 243 00:14:43,320 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 1: I had like twenty minutes later and he's still yelling 244 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: about Ben. I'm like, I like, this guy never met Ben, 245 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 1: but he loved you. That's really sweet. That doesn't answer 246 00:14:53,800 --> 00:15:01,720 Speaker 1: the question, Becca, anyways, Let's move on. What is your 247 00:15:01,760 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 1: favorite place you traveled to? Well? I don't think I 248 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,400 Speaker 1: can say all the places we went to this season, 249 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:10,920 Speaker 1: but I will say last year in our season, I 250 00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,320 Speaker 1: think one of my favorite places was Paris, and we 251 00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 1: you know, had only been there for a couple of days. 252 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 1: We really only had one day to walk around and explore, 253 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 1: but it was beautiful and I want to go back 254 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,280 Speaker 1: there so bad. Maybe you'll do it with your love me. 255 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 1: That's nice. The city of love, I think so it is. 256 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: I think so. I've heard underwhelming things about Paris. Really, 257 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: I think it's just because they don't love US Americans. See, 258 00:15:36,440 --> 00:15:37,960 Speaker 1: I was kind of nervous to go there because I 259 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: knew that. But their food is so incredible there. They 260 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:45,240 Speaker 1: have like the weirdest thing. They're soup everywhere. Got soup 261 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:49,320 Speaker 1: there and it was so good. And they're wine and cheese, creamy, 262 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 1: creamy stuff. That's why loaded up with butter and milk, 263 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: creamy stuff. Actually, all right, this is always a question 264 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 1: that I get, and think it's one of the better 265 00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: ones that people ask me consistently. How did ari season 266 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: prepare you for being the Bachelorette? Oh? That's a good one, 267 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: I think. I mean, it's interesting because I'm the only 268 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: person to have gone through the entire season, was engaged, 269 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 1: had happy couple weekends for a while, and then obviously 270 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 1: that ended. So I really I feel like I was 271 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: pretty well rounded into everything that went on, and I 272 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 1: also learned from his time his season, the things that 273 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 1: he did and said, it helped me realize what I 274 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 1: want to do in a relationship and with these guys, 275 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:36,200 Speaker 1: and what I want to say or maybe not say, 276 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 1: what I want to do or maybe not do with them. 277 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 1: And so I think I just went into it with 278 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 1: the mindset of I want to respect every guy here, 279 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,680 Speaker 1: everyone's time, and to just treat them how I would 280 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: want to be treated. And I just learned that through 281 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:50,280 Speaker 1: you know, interacting with the girls on our season and 282 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: with Ari himself. Do you feel like you have more 283 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 1: respect or less respect for Ari now that you've gone 284 00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: through it. Definitely more And I've said this multiple times. 285 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: I can empathize with him a lot more just knowing 286 00:17:05,520 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 1: you know, it's tough and and if you're doing the 287 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: entire journey right, you're definitely falling for people and feelings 288 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: are building for more than just one person, And so 289 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 1: being on this side now, I can definitely see where 290 00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: he was startling at the end. That's what I was 291 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,720 Speaker 1: gonna ask, actually, because at the super tease at the 292 00:17:24,840 --> 00:17:27,080 Speaker 1: end of your episode, you say that you fell in 293 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 1: love with you people. I haven't even seen the super 294 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:33,160 Speaker 1: tease yet, m hm. I have work to do well. Becky, 295 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,199 Speaker 1: at one point in your life you said that you 296 00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 1: fell in love with two people. Hey, there's no judgment 297 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 1: in this room. We get it. We get it. All 298 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: started with Ben and then everybody started following just people 299 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 1: started to actually talk about it. Yeah, that's the first 300 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: time anybody actually, you know, had the cojones to say, yeah, 301 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,120 Speaker 1: I actually like a lot of people here. I will say. 302 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,199 Speaker 1: There's just a lot of love throughout the entire season, 303 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,959 Speaker 1: with not only some of the guys, but with the 304 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: entire crew and the producers. And one spoiler, I met 305 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 1: Wayne Newton's monkey on one of the dates. Oh my god, 306 00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: his name is Boo, and I fell head over heels 307 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:12,400 Speaker 1: right away. I'm like, the season is over. It's for this. 308 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:16,359 Speaker 1: It's it's not surprising to me that Wayne Newton sweeps 309 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:18,240 Speaker 1: the Bachelor at off your feet at what how old 310 00:18:18,320 --> 00:18:23,439 Speaker 1: is he? Like seventy great head of hair and the 311 00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:27,440 Speaker 1: fellow great hair hair, great head of hair. You would 312 00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:31,240 Speaker 1: steal your heart someway somehow, It's done that so many people. 313 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: His wife stold my heart too. They're both amazing, Becca. 314 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:41,160 Speaker 1: After night one, how many do you feel we're legitimate 315 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: contenders for your heart. M hmm. So after night one, 316 00:18:45,560 --> 00:18:47,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. I think at that point I didn't know, 317 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: but I definitely well, I will say I had a 318 00:18:50,560 --> 00:18:54,040 Speaker 1: journal throughout the entire season, and after Night one there 319 00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:57,760 Speaker 1: were five guys that really stood out to me that 320 00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 1: I wrote about in my journal. Okay, I tried to 321 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: keep a journal. Um, I made it two days. I 322 00:19:06,440 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: look back. It's really hard. Usually last season, on Aura's time, 323 00:19:10,960 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: I would journal every single day, and this time I 324 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,320 Speaker 1: had to do it like once a week usually when 325 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 1: we would travel, because that's the only time I had. 326 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 1: I remember on Crystal season, I did it once a week, 327 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 1: which that's nothing, but then I couldn't keep up the 328 00:19:25,760 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 1: rest of the other ones. Yeah, I gave up. I 329 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:28,960 Speaker 1: mean I would love to. I think it's a good 330 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 1: habit and something you're gonna look back on, uh and 331 00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 1: and appreciate hopefully. Um. And it was also really it 332 00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:38,679 Speaker 1: was really good for me, honestly, looking back post relationship 333 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:42,480 Speaker 1: for me and seeing kind of uh that first moments 334 00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 1: when we met and then progressing through the whole you know, 335 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,200 Speaker 1: journey together to kind of see maybe where you know, 336 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,760 Speaker 1: the questions I didn't ask. It actually helped maybe a 337 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 1: better dater, I hope. Now, well that's what one of 338 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:56,240 Speaker 1: one of the producers told me, who I was really 339 00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:58,560 Speaker 1: close with. She at one point halfway through, She's like, 340 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:00,359 Speaker 1: just go back and read your journal. If you're ever 341 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: confused about anything, go back and maybe that'll give you 342 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: some insight. And so I did that, and it was 343 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: fun to see where my feelings change throughout the entire 344 00:20:10,720 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: time with some of these guys, where they progress, where 345 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 1: they started to diminish, and and it's fun. Last season 346 00:20:16,760 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 1: I did it to watching, you know. I wrote every 347 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 1: day and then every week I would watch it back 348 00:20:21,119 --> 00:20:23,239 Speaker 1: as the show would air, and so I could kind 349 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 1: of laugh back and remember the funny moments. I didn't 350 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,760 Speaker 1: always make it on TV. But yeah, it definitely gives 351 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: a lot more insight to the right questions, what you want, 352 00:20:32,240 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: what you don't want in a partner. It's helpful, at 353 00:20:35,600 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: least for me it was. I can imagine, speaking of 354 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 1: asking the right questions, we have to ask the right 355 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 1: questions about the stuff that we put on our body. Actually, 356 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: with that, you tell everybody about Lola Police, what do 357 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,639 Speaker 1: you mean, what do you mean put on your body? 358 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:54,919 Speaker 1: Because you put tampons Lola tampons in your body, you 359 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: know that, right, same difference actually difference. Well, they also 360 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: have pads and liners so that you kind of do 361 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 1: put on your body, and that's what I think. Yeah, 362 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: those when you prefer a girl. Never mind, we're not 363 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: gonna go there, but I will tell you a little 364 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 1: bit about Lola. I've used these tampons before that t 365 00:21:15,760 --> 00:21:18,920 Speaker 1: m I uh. They are really awesome because they're a 366 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:23,440 Speaker 1: hund percent natural and they make you feel good because 367 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: they because you know you're not putting any unnecessary ingredients 368 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:31,560 Speaker 1: in your body. Unlike other brands, Lola offers complete transparency 369 00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: about the ingredients then in their tampons, pads, and liners. 370 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 1: All their products are cotton, no added chemicals, fragrances, synthetic dies. 371 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: It's so funny because so many people care about what 372 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: they eat and what they put in their body that way, 373 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: but you're not thinking about what you put in your 374 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: body at the other end of it. So, so they 375 00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:01,800 Speaker 1: decided to make something that is simple and one natural 376 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: but also customizable, so you can basically put in a 377 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,680 Speaker 1: couple of light tampons, you can put in a couple 378 00:22:08,680 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 1: of regulars um some some jumbos, for the heavy part 379 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,400 Speaker 1: of your cycle. It's a customizable subscription, so you don't 380 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:19,920 Speaker 1: need to go to drug store. They're going to send 381 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,919 Speaker 1: you a box with all your specific needs right to 382 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:26,959 Speaker 1: your door. You can decide how many boxes you have 383 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:30,640 Speaker 1: delivered to your door. You can make it a monthly shipment. 384 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,800 Speaker 1: You can cancel, skip in order, or modify your subscription 385 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 1: at any time. The FDA actually doesn't require other brands 386 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 1: to disclose a comprehensive list of ingredients in their feminine 387 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: care products, and most of them don't because of that, 388 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:50,760 Speaker 1: but Lola has one upfront. They don't use a mix 389 00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: of synthetic ingredients like the others do. Some others have 390 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 1: polyester in them, or they are treated with harsh chemical 391 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 1: cleansing agents and fragrances and dies. You don't get that 392 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: with Lola. And you can get your Lola which you guys, 393 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: by the way, it feels like regular tampons. Yeah, it's 394 00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:14,439 Speaker 1: not gonna be like hard to get up there, um for. 395 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,919 Speaker 1: You can get them off at my Lola that is 396 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:24,240 Speaker 1: m y l oh l a dot com.

When you subscribe, that 398 00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:33,439 Speaker 1: is my Lola with the promo Code Bachelor pod, Becca, 399 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:38,800 Speaker 1: did you looking back now in the season without hearing 400 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 1: this is this is pre um public's opinion of how 401 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,440 Speaker 1: you handled things, because at this point, just and this 402 00:23:47,520 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: is not about me, I feeled miserably. You're gonna kill it. 403 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 1: I've already seen the first episode. You're amazing this this 404 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: whole season I'm excited for. But when I said, in 405 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: your position, this is not to scare you. You're gonna 406 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:02,359 Speaker 1: be great, but the scary little bit um It wasn't 407 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 1: until the final weeks of my season the Bachelor I 408 00:24:06,320 --> 00:24:09,800 Speaker 1: really felt the pressure from the outside world because I 409 00:24:09,840 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: did I had told two people I love them, and 410 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,000 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden the criticism started to come. 411 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:16,359 Speaker 1: Is there anything on your season you don't give specific 412 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:18,400 Speaker 1: examples that you look back on now and you say 413 00:24:18,440 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 1: I may be made a mistake or I should have 414 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 1: handled it differently. I mean, I'm sure I'm going to 415 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: get backlash on really everything, because people always have things 416 00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: to say about everything. But right now, I don't think 417 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: I have any major things that I regret or that 418 00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 1: I would take back. And you know, living in the 419 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:41,720 Speaker 1: moment for certain things sending people home, it's like for me. 420 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: There's not a rural book on how you break up 421 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: with somebody. And I'm sure that there are things that 422 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,920 Speaker 1: I missed when sending somebody home, or that I should 423 00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: have said or didn't say. But overall, I think I 424 00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,239 Speaker 1: handled every situation. How you know that was right for me? 425 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, nothing major it comes out, though. 426 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 1: I mean, we're gonna make mistakes and break up. That's 427 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 1: the case. And that's the thing. It's like when I 428 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 1: would end things with the guys, I always wanted to 429 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:10,879 Speaker 1: try and give a reason at least so they had something, 430 00:25:11,080 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 1: you know, that they would know it's not them specifically, 431 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:15,639 Speaker 1: it's just like how I'm feeling. And that's where I 432 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,600 Speaker 1: think I struggled the most. But sometimes I just couldn't 433 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 1: give a reason other than I just don't feel it 434 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 1: all the way and I just don't see it. And 435 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:23,719 Speaker 1: I think that was tough for some of the guys. 436 00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:28,280 Speaker 1: But I didn't want to waste anyone's time. Like actually 437 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 1: said last week, there's a chemistry aspect when you just 438 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,119 Speaker 1: don't feel it, you just don't feel it exactly. You 439 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 1: have to say it or it's just gonna get worse 440 00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 1: and worse. For them. What kind of season should we 441 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:39,199 Speaker 1: expect with you? Is it going to be like a 442 00:25:39,240 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: Caitlin Joejoe season where it's pretty obvious the entire time 443 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,399 Speaker 1: not maybe not so much to the audience, but you 444 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: yourself knew the entire time who you're going to pick, 445 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:53,919 Speaker 1: who you're still wanted, or maybe he's been holding up 446 00:25:53,920 --> 00:25:55,679 Speaker 1: the pictures. Or is it going to be more like 447 00:25:55,680 --> 00:25:59,240 Speaker 1: a Rachel season where it's gonna be you're a little 448 00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 1: bit torn, but between two or a couple of guys 449 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: like she was with Peter and Brian. Um. I think 450 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:07,040 Speaker 1: it's going to be a nice mix of a Caitlin, 451 00:26:07,119 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 1: Jojo and Rachel and you'll see it all unfold. Um. 452 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: I surprised myself throughout it too, like I'd like Caitlin, 453 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: Jojoe and Rachel. If I get a mix of all three, 454 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:23,960 Speaker 1: I feel like that's pretty good, pretty good. Hopefully then 455 00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:27,400 Speaker 1: kill it. They're so great. Okay, we have a little 456 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 1: bit of a surprise for you. We have a special 457 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: guest on the phone.

She 472 00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 1: is shooting sunshine out of her ass, like shooting sunshine 473 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: out of her that's a picture for the Bachelor.

Well, 481 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 1: when I saw him recently, I gave her some advice 482 00:28:11,359 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 1: and I hope that it worked. Um seems like it 483 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: might have. Um, but I mean, I don't know.

I mean Caitlin was great. 659 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 1: She should have been a bachelor, But like that seems 660 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: to be your season that would have ended in happily 661 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:43,879 Speaker 1: ever after two. Who knows if jaredin would have been 662 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 1: at that point?

I want to start 719 00:42:46,040 --> 00:42:50,160 Speaker 1: with one from Sarah. Sarah says and the title of 720 00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:52,839 Speaker 1: it is I know one of the final four from 721 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 1: Becca season. Interesting. I always like these. Let's read it. 722 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 1: I haven't read it yet, so let's see where it goes. 723 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,520 Speaker 1: I'm a Bachelor Bachelorette fan from day one. I've watched 724 00:43:00,560 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 1: every single episode of every single season, including every single 725 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,480 Speaker 1: episode of every single spin off. Wow, meaning I was 726 00:43:07,600 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 1: fourteen when the show started. And yes, of course I 727 00:43:10,719 --> 00:43:13,359 Speaker 1: take great pride in that I was very excited when 728 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: Becca was announced to the Bachelor because, as most of 729 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:19,200 Speaker 1: America saw, she deserved it over any other girl. I 730 00:43:19,239 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 1: know how Becca feels, like a lot of girls out there, 731 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 1: getting blindsided by a guy is never easy, and she 732 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:31,200 Speaker 1: handled the situation like a boss. All of America became 733 00:43:31,239 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 1: Becca's fans that Monday night. I agree. So the really 734 00:43:34,840 --> 00:43:37,440 Speaker 1: reason I'm writing in is because that I'm even more 735 00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,239 Speaker 1: excited about this season because I know one of the 736 00:43:39,239 --> 00:43:42,000 Speaker 1: final contestants. We grew up in the same town and 737 00:43:42,040 --> 00:43:44,080 Speaker 1: with this school together, as well as hung out in 738 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:46,399 Speaker 1: the same friend group. He dated one of my good 739 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,080 Speaker 1: friends all throughout high school and most of college. My 740 00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:51,600 Speaker 1: good friend is actually getting married this fall to an 741 00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,799 Speaker 1: amazing guy, so it all worked out in the end. 742 00:43:54,360 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 1: I'd love to help Way. I'd love to help Way 743 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: and on your thoughts about this guy. He's revealed as 744 00:44:01,120 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 1: Top four and the only reason I know he made 745 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,080 Speaker 1: it to hometowns is because I heard through the grape 746 00:44:06,120 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 1: vine and it was all over the local media that 747 00:44:08,840 --> 00:44:11,759 Speaker 1: Becca and the suitor we're in the school in the 748 00:44:11,800 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 1: town shooting their date. Hopefully talk to you soon, Sarah. 749 00:44:15,160 --> 00:44:17,640 Speaker 1: That's really sweet. I bet that's exciting for her. This 750 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:20,839 Speaker 1: is really nice to hear because this girl obviously admires him. 751 00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,160 Speaker 1: I think. I mean it says I don't know Becka's 752 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,200 Speaker 1: Final four yet, but what it says is we've got 753 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 1: I mean, I remember last season. What wasn't it that 754 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:30,560 Speaker 1: we've got an email for the final four that was like, 755 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:33,799 Speaker 1: I don't like this guy. Girl, she's not trustworthy, she's 756 00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:35,440 Speaker 1: in it for the wrong reasons. It was a pretty 757 00:44:35,480 --> 00:44:38,560 Speaker 1: like scaling, scathing email about one of the people that 758 00:44:38,640 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 1: was about Mark. I think from it. But I like 759 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:47,440 Speaker 1: these emails more. Yeah, I like these emails more actually 760 00:44:47,440 --> 00:44:50,799 Speaker 1: got for Yes. So now that you you know you're 761 00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 1: the single one on this panel of two, we need 762 00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:57,880 Speaker 1: to get you married. Yeah. Well, Tess wants to be 763 00:44:57,920 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: your wife. No, no, no, she doesn't. She doesn't, She says, Ben, 764 00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:06,200 Speaker 1: will you marry us? So well, let's let's read on. Ben. 765 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 1: Like you, I've always been a strong believer in love, 766 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: and even when I felt I was losing it, I 767 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:16,560 Speaker 1: still believed. I truly feel like amidst all the negativity 768 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: and difficulty we've faced in this world, love conquers all. 769 00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:22,400 Speaker 1: But I have doubted that I would ever find someone 770 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:25,440 Speaker 1: to fall in love with as much as I felt 771 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:28,480 Speaker 1: like I would never find someone who loved me as 772 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:33,399 Speaker 1: much I love as like as much as I've always 773 00:45:33,440 --> 00:45:35,520 Speaker 1: felt like I would never find someone who loved me 774 00:45:35,680 --> 00:45:38,600 Speaker 1: as I'm as much as I loved them. I've been 775 00:45:38,640 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: told my expectations are too high, I'll never be satisfied, 776 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:46,080 Speaker 1: and that there is no such thing as perfect, But 777 00:45:46,200 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 1: that is what I'm searching for. That is true, there 778 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,880 Speaker 1: is no such thing as perfect, But I do believe 779 00:45:51,920 --> 00:45:54,719 Speaker 1: that there is someone perfect for me, and I am 780 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 1: so incredibly happy to say that I have found him. Hey, 781 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:01,000 Speaker 1: haven't we all in this room except a few marry us? 782 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 1: She wants you to official My fiance. Robert was born 783 00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:11,480 Speaker 1: and raised in geist Indiana. As a graduate of Indiana University, 784 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 1: he moved to Milwaukee to work for Coles Corporation headquarters, 785 00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:18,879 Speaker 1: where we ultimately met through mutual friends.

Should I go on the Bachelor? 826 00:48:29,760 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 1: From Becca different Beca. I'm an eighteen almost nineteen year 827 00:48:36,440 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 1: old college student and I have never been in a relationship, 828 00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:42,239 Speaker 1: so I'm pretty set on wanting to do the Bachelor 829 00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:46,279 Speaker 1: after I graduate college. Come on, Bigger Dreams. All of 830 00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,880 Speaker 1: my friends tell me that this is a bad decision 831 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:52,400 Speaker 1: and to just wait for it to happen. I have 832 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:55,239 Speaker 1: a fear that I literally won't ever find someone, don't 833 00:48:55,239 --> 00:48:57,320 Speaker 1: we all. I grew up watching The Bachelor and Bachelor, 834 00:48:57,640 --> 00:48:59,800 Speaker 1: and I have always wanted to do it to find 835 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:02,920 Speaker 1: my future person. What is your advice on this? Okay, 836 00:49:02,960 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 1: we'll pause here, and here's my first advice. If your 837 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 1: friends are telling you it's a bad decision. When you 838 00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,840 Speaker 1: say all of my friends are telling me it's about decision, 839 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:14,759 Speaker 1: it's probably a bad decision. It's not about decision. Look 840 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 1: how it turned out for me. Agreed. You're you're in 841 00:49:18,520 --> 00:49:20,080 Speaker 1: a place in life that I bet your friends would 842 00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 1: have told you about decision. So whatever is going on 843 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,759 Speaker 1: in her life, her friends like, don do it. She's 844 00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:27,200 Speaker 1: also eighteen going on nineteen. Again don't don't do it? 845 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,360 Speaker 1: And I think mid twenties is a great time to 846 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,560 Speaker 1: sign up. Yeah, so I'm not saying it's always a 847 00:49:31,560 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 1: bad decision. The Bachelor has been great to me, like 848 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 1: I've said, But if you're all of your friends are 849 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:39,719 Speaker 1: advising you not to, I would hesitate to do it. 850 00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 1: They love you, I'm assuming. Also, eighteen nineteen years old 851 00:49:43,960 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 1: without having had a relationship is so perfectly normal. I 852 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,800 Speaker 1: think you may even be in the majority of these days. 853 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:52,239 Speaker 1: I know that, you know, back in the day, high 854 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:56,000 Speaker 1: school sweethearts was such a thing, but as as generations 855 00:49:56,040 --> 00:49:58,640 Speaker 1: go on, I feel like people aren't getting into serious 856 00:49:58,640 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 1: relationships until there were late teens. Actually, when when did 857 00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,960 Speaker 1: you first have your first boyfriend? Okay, but like this year? 858 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:06,680 Speaker 1: How old? How old were you when you have your 859 00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:12,600 Speaker 1: first boyfriend? Like this year? Okay, you're doing fine. Back up, 860 00:50:14,600 --> 00:50:16,920 Speaker 1: I'm saying, okay, second part of the email. I'm saving 861 00:50:16,920 --> 00:50:19,000 Speaker 1: myself till marriage, and I feel like nowadays it is 862 00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,000 Speaker 1: hard to find someone with the same views on that. 863 00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,320 Speaker 1: I would love to marry someone that has saved himself 864 00:50:23,360 --> 00:50:25,720 Speaker 1: for me too. When I am dating someone, I always 865 00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:28,640 Speaker 1: feel insecure knowing that I cannot give them that. Even 866 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:32,080 Speaker 1: if they say that they're okay with me not wanting sex, 867 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:35,319 Speaker 1: I am used to the guy dropping me. Eventually. If 868 00:50:35,360 --> 00:50:37,839 Speaker 1: you guys have told me they did not feel good 869 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:40,759 Speaker 1: enough for me because I don't drink, do drugs, or 870 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:43,359 Speaker 1: have sex, I tell them they're good enough for me, 871 00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:45,840 Speaker 1: even though in my mind I want someone with similar 872 00:50:46,120 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 1: views as me. I would love if you guys could 873 00:50:48,200 --> 00:50:51,440 Speaker 1: give me some advice, because you all give amazing advice. 874 00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:55,440 Speaker 1: That's nice just winging him, and I absolutely love and 875 00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:59,920 Speaker 1: look up to you. Okay. Uh, I'm a little confused 876 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:03,439 Speaker 1: because the email starts with saying that she's never been 877 00:51:03,480 --> 00:51:06,279 Speaker 1: in a relationship, and then she says when I am 878 00:51:06,360 --> 00:51:09,319 Speaker 1: dating someone, So maybe she's okay, dating and relationship is 879 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,400 Speaker 1: different right in today's world, because that's something I'm not 880 00:51:11,400 --> 00:51:13,640 Speaker 1: catching on because I was going to respond by saying 881 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,480 Speaker 1: that a lot of the guys that I didd before 882 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 1: having a boyfriend would tell me that not so much 883 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:21,879 Speaker 1: that they weren't good enough for me, but that they 884 00:51:21,920 --> 00:51:27,280 Speaker 1: didn't really want the responsibility of being my first, because 885 00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:31,560 Speaker 1: then they're like, what if we do this? And then 886 00:51:31,719 --> 00:51:34,120 Speaker 1: I decided that it's we're not in it for the 887 00:51:34,160 --> 00:51:35,720 Speaker 1: long haul. I think it puts a lot of pressure 888 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:37,600 Speaker 1: on guys to think that like they're going to be 889 00:51:37,640 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 1: with you for almost ever. They'd have to write. I mean, 890 00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 1: the separation from somebody being your first as as a 891 00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:48,440 Speaker 1: physical partner carries a lot of weight, and it should. 892 00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 1: And so here's here's the advice. You're asking for someone 893 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:57,920 Speaker 1: with similar views, morals, life experiences you And that's okay, 894 00:51:57,960 --> 00:52:01,000 Speaker 1: that's great, Becca, You're in this to find your person, 895 00:52:01,120 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 1: not what the world tells you should be your person, 896 00:52:03,600 --> 00:52:05,640 Speaker 1: and not what the world tells you should do to 897 00:52:05,680 --> 00:52:07,640 Speaker 1: find your person. If that's something you desire, If you 898 00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: want to find a man who will look you in 899 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:12,120 Speaker 1: the eyes and say have waited for you. Now, I'm 900 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:15,480 Speaker 1: gonna tell you right now, not everybody's perfect. There. There's 901 00:52:15,480 --> 00:52:17,480 Speaker 1: always gonna be baggage, there's always gonna be things that 902 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:19,440 Speaker 1: they bring into the relationship. But if you're looking for 903 00:52:19,480 --> 00:52:21,120 Speaker 1: somebody to simply look you in the eyes and say 904 00:52:21,120 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 1: I have waited for you, no matter what that means, 905 00:52:23,680 --> 00:52:27,360 Speaker 1: then find him. Somebody would do it. They're totally out there. Also, 906 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 1: I know this is a little bit of a spoiler alert, 907 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:35,120 Speaker 1: but in the teaser, the season long teaser, Colton admits 908 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:38,120 Speaker 1: that he's a virgin and he's not necessarily waiting for marriage, 909 00:52:38,160 --> 00:52:41,239 Speaker 1: but he's waiting for like the you know, love and 910 00:52:41,280 --> 00:52:43,400 Speaker 1: like to feel secure in it. And so if a 911 00:52:43,480 --> 00:52:46,480 Speaker 1: really hot guy who seems to have it all going on, 912 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:50,279 Speaker 1: like Colton is a virgin, there are others out there 913 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,040 Speaker 1: and you should hold out for him, yeah, or or 914 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:55,080 Speaker 1: offer I mean, and I also want to preface it 915 00:52:55,120 --> 00:52:56,319 Speaker 1: by saying there's a lot of good guys that they 916 00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:59,200 Speaker 1: offer grace to the guys that have maybe made a 917 00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:02,279 Speaker 1: decision or who that they're not happy about or thrilled about, 918 00:53:02,360 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 1: or maybe made, you know, a ba jillion decision that 919 00:53:04,920 --> 00:53:06,960 Speaker 1: they're not happy about with, but they're coming to the 920 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,000 Speaker 1: relationships saying I'm sorry, I'm laying this out here and 921 00:53:09,000 --> 00:53:10,400 Speaker 1: I'm asking you to love me for who I am 922 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:13,200 Speaker 1: today and that I want to be with you forever.

Don't sacrifice those boundaries for the attention 927 00:53:25,400 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 1: or admiration of somebody else out there. Stand firm on 928 00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:33,160 Speaker 1: what you believe is true and right and admirable. Um I, 929 00:53:33,320 --> 00:53:37,520 Speaker 1: Becca am a huge fan of this email.

But also remember that 932 00:53:44,440 --> 00:53:46,920 Speaker 1: when you do meet that guy and he does you 933 00:53:46,920 --> 00:53:50,439 Speaker 1: can look you in the eyes.
