This is you know what this is. 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:09,200 Speaker 1: This is the diet coke of cheating. 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:12,040 Speaker 2: It's the gateway drug of cheating. So this actually comes 5 00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:15,800 Speaker 2: from our subreddit, our slash okopie. See you have a story, 6 00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:20,640 Speaker 2: submit it there and it comes from marlell H. 7 00:00:20,760 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Nice Marlon LH. Probably mispronouncing that, but thank you for 8 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,640 Speaker 1: your submission. I nineteen, female, have been with my boyfriend 9 00:00:27,720 --> 00:00:29,680 Speaker 1: twenty mail for about a year and a half now. 10 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:32,599 Speaker 1: We've hit a rough patch lately, Ponson arguing, although we're 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 1: both exhausted of it. 12 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,919 Speaker 2: And it keeps lingering in my head that maybe it's 13 00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:38,800 Speaker 2: not to be. That's tough. Yeah, though you know, there 14 00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,720 Speaker 2: could be more, or this could be it. I'm holding 15 00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 2: off an ending things because we've been in love since 16 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:45,639 Speaker 2: middle school. Dang, that's a long time. Yeah, and we're 17 00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 2: only kept apart because of distance, but also we dated 18 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,000 Speaker 2: long distance a couple times through high school. Oh, so 19 00:00:50,040 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 2: you guys have been like off and on for a 20 00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 2: little bit. Yeah, we got together as soon as you 21 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,360 Speaker 2: move back, and we moved in together three months after. 22 00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 2: I guess that's not fast, as I know each other 23 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,360 Speaker 2: mid school, so it's not that crazy. We've been through 24 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 2: hell this past year, but I wouldn't have done it 25 00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,760 Speaker 2: with anyone else in our past experiences. I feel like 26 00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 2: we've both grown to be perfect for each other, and 27 00:01:07,080 --> 00:01:09,720 Speaker 2: I couldn't imagine leaving the life we've built in that 28 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 2: year to start over. Okay, so are you holding off thing? 29 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: Like? 30 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 2: Are you holding off on ending things? Or are you 31 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 2: perfect to each other? To the side, wo, it sounds 32 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:19,800 Speaker 2: like you really you know, you might might have something special. 33 00:01:19,880 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 2: The problem, however, charted about two days ago. We had 34 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 2: a bad day and slept early, still cuddled up. I 35 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 2: never liked sleeping mad If I wake up ten am, 36 00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:28,679 Speaker 2: it's my day off. I let him sleep in as usual, 37 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,040 Speaker 2: and I drove to Target for hair bleach that I've 38 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 2: been neading, but did some window shopping too. I bumped 39 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,679 Speaker 2: into this guy from high school, oh, and we caught 40 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,040 Speaker 2: up with each other's lives and I had such a 41 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: good time talking to him. I didn't notice how long 42 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 2: we've been standing around. His girlfriend was staring at us 43 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 2: from a little further down the aisle, but I hadn't 44 00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 2: seen her until he cleared his throat and she walked 45 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 2: up to us. Felt bad and introduced myself, letting her 46 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 2: know our history quote unquote. Oh so she doesn't feel intimidated, 47 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: and she introduced herself as his girlfriend before taking him 48 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 2: by his hand, saying they had to go. Everything is 49 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 2: super awkward. I grabbed my bleach and towards his self. Checkout. 50 00:02:01,160 --> 00:02:03,160 Speaker 2: I hear something fall and turn around to see her 51 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 2: and her friend laughing while cleaning up a stand. They 52 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 2: just drop. I laughed to myself and keep walking, but 53 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 2: the guy catches up to me and says to walk 54 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,679 Speaker 2: me out. Yeah, I'm just like ditching his girlfriend, see you, babes. 55 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,920 Speaker 2: I asked about his girlfriend, which I would ask too, 56 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 2: and he says they met up there. He doesn't like 57 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 2: her friend and the mom somewhere she'll be fine. I 58 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 2: offer him a ride because he got here on Uber, 59 00:02:22,919 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 2: and he runs towards my car, taking the driver's seat 60 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,960 Speaker 2: because too bad. I left my car unlocked and now 61 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:31,440 Speaker 2: it's stolen. I guess they're engaging in some playful banter 62 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: right now, like haha, I stole your car. Interesting. I 63 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 2: hand him the keys and he starts driving out of 64 00:02:37,040 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 2: tarbagate past my city past a smaller city, and finally 65 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 2: I ask if he knows where he's going. He says 66 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 2: honestly no. He got caught up in our conversation and 67 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 2: he didn't want to stop and ask for directions. He 68 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: sees something familiar. At some point, I asked for his address, 69 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 2: and he jokes about it being dangerous for me to 70 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: have it. I joke him and threatened to kill him 71 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 2: in his sleep, and he finally gives me his address, 72 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 2: but talk too fast, and I looked up to ask 73 00:02:57,240 --> 00:02:59,680 Speaker 2: him to repeat it again. He looks serious and went quiet. 74 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 2: We were very lost at this point, and there were 75 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: people around carrying guns just in front of their houses 76 00:03:04,320 --> 00:03:06,520 Speaker 2: and staring at us. Oh. He keeps driving to get 77 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 2: out of the area, instead driving deeper into it. We 78 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 2: started to just park to figure out where we're going. 79 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 2: We sit around for an hour talking. We moved to 80 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: the back seat to talk without being seen. Oh. We kiss. 81 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,440 Speaker 2: I feel like I've been gone for hours and start 82 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 2: panicking about my boyfriend. Looking at my location, these people 83 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,360 Speaker 2: begin lighting a fire maybe fifty feet away from us 84 00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 2: in a public street and throwing corpses on it. Corpses. 85 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 2: I look at him We're both terrified, so I start 86 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 2: looking up his address again, and we get back in 87 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:31,760 Speaker 2: the front, driving away with his hand on my knee. 88 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 2: I wake up being held by my boyfriend and was 89 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 2: honestly a little sad that none of it was real. 90 00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 2: I took that day and the next to get over 91 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 2: the weirdness of it. But I wasn't going to tell 92 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,200 Speaker 2: my boyfriend anything. I know it would hurt him, just 93 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: like it would hurt me if it was the other 94 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 2: way around. Last night I fell asleep not thinking of it, 95 00:03:46,280 --> 00:03:48,760 Speaker 2: and woke up this morning with a very vague memory 96 00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 2: of another dream involving him. We were just parked in 97 00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 2: the rain, playing some rock song, and we're both singing 98 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 2: and joking around. I like how she has this person 99 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: that she's in this relationship with in our dreams. I 100 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 2: feel extremely guilty, but I don't know what to do 101 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: about this either. I love my boyfriend. I don't even 102 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 2: know this guy enough to be dreaming of him like that. 103 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 2: I'm not really looking for help. I just need to 104 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: tell someone without sounding like a horrible girlfriend. So John, oh, 105 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,600 Speaker 2: all right, I want to hear from the audience, what 106 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: do you think this is one of her own? This 107 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: is the Okay Gang. So, yeah, what do you think 108 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: about Opie's dirty dreams and what she should do about it? 109 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,359 Speaker 2: And while you're putting that in the comments, John, what 110 00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 2: do you think? 111 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: So I'm not a subscriber that dreams like always means something, 112 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,040 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, I'm totally they can 113 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 1: mean like me, you're subconscious trying to tell you something. 114 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,040 Speaker 1: Other times, I think your brain is just brain and 115 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: just things pop up brain. 116 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:36,839 Speaker 2: It's just brain, you know. 117 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,520 Speaker 1: I mean, maybe, I mean it is weird. I think 118 00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:42,400 Speaker 1: one off dream eh, like, not a big deal, but 119 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: if it keeps happening over and over, maybe it is 120 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,880 Speaker 1: something like and you're subconscious that you're like just listening 121 00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: to the beginning of a story. 122 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 2: It seemed like kind of. 123 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: Pretty abrupt, kind of flip flops of like it seemed 124 00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: like we were bad, but then we were like, I 125 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:54,800 Speaker 1: can't imagine my life. 126 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 2: Well, they were like, I feel I think the biggest 127 00:04:56,680 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: thing that stood out to me is like, I feel 128 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 2: like you feel uncertain of where your relationship stands with 129 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,599 Speaker 2: your boyfriend, and maybe that is causing you to think 130 00:05:04,600 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 2: about like other possibilities in dreamland, not to like psychoanalyze 131 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:10,200 Speaker 2: too much. Yeah, yeah, what else do you think? Again? 132 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:13,400 Speaker 1: I you know, I don't think you're a hole necessarily. 133 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:15,920 Speaker 1: Like it's like again, like you can't really control your dreams. 134 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: And again, if it happens once twice, maybe like like 135 00:05:19,560 --> 00:05:20,880 Speaker 1: if you have a few weeks where it happens a 136 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: few times and then it goes away and then you're 137 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 1: like you feel stable in your relationship. I mean, I 138 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: don't see too much reason to look into it, but 139 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:29,960 Speaker 1: I think maybe if it happens a lot over and over, 140 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 1: that probably might mean something. 141 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 2: Gon, do you have a hall pass in dreamland? I 142 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: think so? Again, like John's getting down and dirty every time. Yeah, 143 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,480 Speaker 2: looking into the matrix. 144 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:41,720 Speaker 1: One of the things I was going to say after 145 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: it's done is like, so you have two options, live 146 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: in the real world or just induce yourself into eternal 147 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 1: sleep and just like and then. 148 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 2: Like I've been living my dual life. No, but like 149 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, I wouldn't be mad. Yeah, I think 150 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:56,479 Speaker 2: I think it's not a big deal. If it keeps 151 00:05:56,520 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 2: popping up, maybe you want to investigate. I think the 152 00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: real thing is, like, how do you actually feel about 153 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 2: your boyfriend right now? I think that's the real thing 154 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: you should dig into today. 155 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:07,479 Speaker 1: Fed up by buying a boom boom fun time doll 156 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: while I was sleep deprived. 157 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 2: When you say boom boom fun time doll, is it 158 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: what I'm thinking? It is exactly what you're thinking. Oh yeah, 159 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: gonna get a hoiah. 160 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, where to start? I am a high school student. 161 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,520 Speaker 1: Oh wow, this is a high school student. You're a 162 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 1: baby child, bro protect your virgin e is. I've always 163 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: been someone who didn't study properly. Rather than night before 164 00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,919 Speaker 1: an exam, I would stay up all night and cram 165 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: for it, cram.
