00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:10,240
Speaker 1: Welcome back to Bachelor Happy Hours, Golden Hour. We're so

2
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:11,440
Speaker 1: happy to be back.

3
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 2: Hey Kathy, Hey Susan, how are you doing much better?

4
00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 1: Everybody's healing?

5
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:21,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I well, you know, I had ronchitas,

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: rounds of antibox. I've been sick for a month. I'm

7
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:27,120
Speaker 2: just about at the tail end of it. You know.

8
00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,720
Speaker 2: I really thought January would get me healthy, but it hasn't.

9
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 2: And now you know what's been going on in California.

10
00:00:37,840 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 2: You know, I cannot even it's I got to say.

11
00:00:43,040 --> 00:00:47,920
Speaker 2: It's to me though I'm glued to the television you

12
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 2: know have been watching, but it's more for me about

13
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 2: I mean, devastation is devastation, but it's to me, it's

14
00:00:55,320 --> 00:01:01,880
Speaker 2: the personal devastation of people's lives, not the things necessarily,

15
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:03,640
Speaker 2: although I know that matters to a lot of people.

16
00:01:03,720 --> 00:01:06,280
Speaker 2: But you know, I was talking to someone and she

17
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,360
Speaker 2: was talking about and it really it still almost makes

18
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 2: me cry. She's talking about getting out and she has

19
00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,760
Speaker 2: a young baby and getting her car seat and her stroller,

20
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 2: and her breast milk is left at home in her freezer,

21
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 2: and anyone who's ever her nurse that's liquid gold. I'm

22
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: thinking you know you and I are talking about, Oh,

23
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,880
Speaker 2: I forgot broccoli at the grocery store, and.

24
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 1: Then some people that I said earlier to somebody, I

25
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 1: always know they always have finers out there. It's never

26
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 1: been like this, never. This is devastating. And the people's emotions,

27
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: what they're going through.

28
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,920
Speaker 2: I hear you and the you know again, things can

29
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:49,000
Speaker 2: always be replaced or not, but they're things, but people

30
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 2: and lives and the emotions and the memories somebody was

31
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 2: talking about, you know, the places that they used to

32
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,960
Speaker 2: go for breakfast and the restaurants and the Yeah, it's

33
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 2: like it's like it's almost people use words like apocalyptic

34
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: and driving through hell. Anyway. I just it's really bothered me.

35
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,520
Speaker 1: And and you know, everybody that's listening, just take a

36
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 1: few seconds of silence, how about it, Kathy, and just

37
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: pray for these people.

38
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:27,760
Speaker 2: Amen. I also, if you know, we talk as cheap folks.

39
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 2: So you know this our podcast is being recorded and

40
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,519
Speaker 2: it'll be out in you know, who knows, but in

41
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 2: the in the very near future. But you know what,

42
00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:40,240
Speaker 2: the need is going to go on long after the

43
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 2: news cameras are turned off. So you know, please think

44
00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,360
Speaker 2: of those people and think of what you can do

45
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:50,920
Speaker 2: to help other people because we are grateful, we are minded.

46
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,120
Speaker 1: So many times of the hurricanes and the floods and

47
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: now the fires.

48
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: And of course for us, for Vachtela Nations. So many

49
00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 2: of the people that we know have lost their homes.

50
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: So you know, look for some way to help. Because

51
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 2: you know, our friend Nancy has done a campaign about

52
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 2: just one thing, and she's had all of her Instagram

53
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: just one thing. Well, here's a great opportunity for people.

54
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,799
Speaker 2: You know, the holidays are over, it's the new year,

55
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,800
Speaker 2: try doing just one thing to help these folks in

56
00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: California because many of them don't have insurance and they've

57
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: lost their lives, their futures. They need to rebuild. And

58
00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 2: that's not the easy time to do. Okay, that was

59
00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 2: my PSA, So okay, so today trying. It's not a

60
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:41,240

Speaker 2: Okay, let's go.

72
00:04:11,840 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: Okay, we got the question of the day, Kathy. What

73
00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:19,080
Speaker 1: are three things you think every couple should do before

74
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: getting married?

75
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:24,279
Speaker 2: Oh? Heck, the first thing is make in my case,

76
00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: make sure the guy puts the house, the credit cards

77
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 2: and adds me as an owner to everything. Let's start

78
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,240
Speaker 2: with that. That would be free right there. No, I

79
00:04:36,360 --> 00:04:37,479
Speaker 2: be let's be serious.

80
00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: Traveling together is a good one because you want to

81
00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: go away with them if you're not already living together.

82
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: Some people live together before they're married, which I'm not

83
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:52,200
Speaker 1: opposed to, but spending a good amount of time with

84
00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: somebody so you know their everyday habits, how they shower

85
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,440
Speaker 1: in the morning, when they shower.

86
00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: Do they shower they in this same after their toothpastem TM,

87
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,719
Speaker 2: I would be I think you have to talk. I

88
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:13,200
Speaker 2: think couples and couples can all do it differently. Are

89
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,919
Speaker 2: you going to share, you know, having the finance conversation?

90
00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 2: Are you going to share money? Are you going to

91
00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 2: have your separate accounts, how do you spend, how do

92
00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:23,280
Speaker 2: you save? Those conversations are going to.

93
00:05:23,200 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: Pay the bills? Who's going to be in charge of,

94
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 1: you know, the mortgage.

95
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:31,320
Speaker 2: And again every couple does it differently. Some people you know,

96
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 2: division of labor, right, and.

97
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,800
Speaker 1: Who's doing their laundry? Are we doing our own laundry

98
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,960
Speaker 1: or back in the day, I did the whole family laundry,

99
00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,679
Speaker 1: my son and his wife. My son does his own

100
00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,680
Speaker 1: and she does hers and the babies. I get it

101
00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:46,920
Speaker 1: because everybody works.

102
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,719
Speaker 2: What about the conversation about do you want children?

103
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely, Susan, that's a big one.

104
00:05:53,040 --> 00:05:54,119
Speaker 2: Not for us, it isn't.

105
00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:56,800
Speaker 1: Well, we don't have to worry about that anymore.

106
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 2: But I think having kids, I mean those that those

107
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:06,360
Speaker 2: are three big ones. Finance, uh, spending, lifestyle, living.

108
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 1: Vacations like you do you want to go on a

109
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:10,919
Speaker 1: vacation every year? And what's your goal? You got to

110
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,799
Speaker 1: put money away for that? You plan to do these things?

111
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 2: I think with I know with my three kids, two

112
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,520
Speaker 2: of them are married, they all of them have full

113
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: time jobs.

114
00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 1: You know, it's it is so I said, those two

115
00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: working people.

116
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 2: Right back in the dark ages, that is when you

117
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,040
Speaker 2: and I were young, a lot of moms stayed home,

118
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 2: some did, some didn't, some work part time. But I'm

119
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:37,200
Speaker 2: now right now, it takes really a two income family

120
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,359
Speaker 2: and so to afford it. Right. But the point is

121
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 2: when you have both people working, you know, you've got

122
00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:48,680
Speaker 2: to really split the duties because you can't. You can't

123
00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 2: get kids, get them to day care and cleaning.

124
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 1: I mean, you can't spend the entire weekend cleaning because

125
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 1: you want to go do something. So you delegate, Okay,

126
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 1: this week, I'll do this or you do this. That's

127
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:03,919
Speaker 1: how it works. I think you're setting yourself up, step

128
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 1: up for success when you decide.

129
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: I absolutely converse as you and I always say you

130
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 2: got to have these conversations.

131
00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 1: You know, I'm commitment caring.

132
00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 2: I mean, it's all sea words, but compromise. But you

133
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 2: know what I'm it was amazed. We get people writing

134
00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 2: in who say I didn't know that.

135
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 1: Shocked.

136
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:29,840
Speaker 2: They're like, I didn't know.

137
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 1: You've been with them five years?

138
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 2: You never do, Like, really, you dated this guy for

139
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 2: five years and you didn't know that he left his

140
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:38,920

158
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,839
Speaker 1: dates with someone. I feel like I'm always too over

159
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:40,120
Speaker 1: overly excited when I'm dating in the beginning and can

160
00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 1: maybe be overwhelming. What kind of stuff should I be

161
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 1: saying to these guys after the date when we're texting?

162
00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: I need help sticking the landing? How do I be smooth? Thanks? Ladies?

163
00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:58,480
Speaker 2: Okay, can I just say this is me? This is

164
00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: me when I go on a first date. I've had

165
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:06,800
Speaker 2: guys say to me, wow, you're a lot. I get

166
00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:10,840
Speaker 2: what she's saying. It's I think.

167
00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,319
Speaker 1: It has to wait till waigh after the first date.

168
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: A first date, you don't even know if you're going

169
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:16,920
Speaker 1: into a relationship.

170
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:22,760
Speaker 2: But well, no, I think she's saying what amount of conversation,

171
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 2: Like I think.

172
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:26,920
Speaker 1: She's should I be saying to these guys.

173
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she's over exuberant, like, oh, tell me

174
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,720
Speaker 2: this and tell me that, and I oh, I really

175
00:09:31,840 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 2: And that can be off putting to a lot of men.

176
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 2: I know firsthand. It can be offpening when the reality

177
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:44,040
Speaker 2: is I think, Maria, you're just you're excited about life,

178
00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 2: you're excited about dating, and you just you just are

179
00:09:47,880 --> 00:09:50,439
Speaker 2: chatty like I am and that but someone.

180
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 1: I'm chatty though after the first date, my text would involve, hey,

181
00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,959
Speaker 1: I'd love to see you again or I'm not feeling it,

182
00:09:58,120 --> 00:10:00,440
Speaker 1: you know, one or the other. That's about the extent

183
00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:02,199
Speaker 1: of it. I mean just one date.

184
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:04,679
Speaker 2: Oh no, after I've had one date. If I like

185
00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,440
Speaker 2: the guy we've texted or talked on the phone for

186
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,120
Speaker 2: a long long time, I agree.

187
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 1: And then you say i'd love to see you again,

188
00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: what do you want to do? Like things like that

189
00:10:13,400 --> 00:10:16,720
Speaker 1: and then small talk, but you're not talking about her future.

190
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 2: Well, that's see. I think that's the thing, Maria. If

191
00:10:19,480 --> 00:10:22,680
Speaker 2: you're asking, should you be talking about you know, what

192
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 2: size house do you want? How many kids do you want?

193
00:10:24,880 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: Right now?

194
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 2: Yeah? That's that's that's off putting, Maria. Do not do that,

195
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: you know, go to jail. Do not collect two hundred dollars.

196
00:10:31,720 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: And you know what else I believe is off putting,

197
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: Kathy when somebody says, like, are we exclusive after the

198
00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,400
Speaker 1: first date? Or what are you looking for?

199
00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 2: I had a guy ask me a minute. I had

200
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 2: a guy ask me that.

201
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: What are we exclusive one day?

202
00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,719
Speaker 2: Yep? And I said, how about if we go a.

203
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,000
Speaker 1: Second time and let's see how we feel.

204
00:10:54,400 --> 00:10:56,760
Speaker 2: That's kind of what I said. But you know, my

205
00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,160
Speaker 2: daughter has given me advice that if if a guy

206
00:11:00,360 --> 00:11:02,680
Speaker 2: and maybe it goes both ways, Maria, So pay attention.

207
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:07,720
Speaker 2: If you come across as too eager, then you sound desperate. Yeah,

208
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,280
Speaker 2: where I'm not desperate. Yeah, but you take it slow,

209
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:15,880
Speaker 2: enjoy the date. Let us know how it goes, Maria.

210
00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 2: But just you know, if there's nothing wrong with saying, hey,

211
00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,560
Speaker 2: I gotta run, you know, don't chat, don't be so

212
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 2: available for an hour at a time, just saying.

213
00:11:27,040 --> 00:11:31,800
Speaker 1: We're texting to these guys after the date. What kind

214
00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: of stuff should I be saying? I can tell you

215
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 1: I really enjoyed your company. We had a great time.

216
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,240
Speaker 1: That was so much fun playing top golf or whatever

217
00:11:40,280 --> 00:11:41,480
Speaker 1: you did that time.

218
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,959
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, and would love to get together again.

219
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:44,360
Speaker 1: Yeah.

220
00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 2: Soon you gotta run. I have to go watch dust

221
00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,680
Speaker 2: grow on my sofa, you know something, And then move

222
00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 2: on and if he's interested, I'll get back with you and.

223
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 1: I text you a second time. I mean, it's okay

224
00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: if you want to text first and say thank you

225
00:11:59,320 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: and all that, but don't always be the first.

226
00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 2: One, right, And the way you stick the landing, Maria

227
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:10,400
Speaker 2: is slow down, slow role. All right, let's get the

228
00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:12,800
Speaker 2: question too. But Maria, let us know we wish you

229
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,720
Speaker 2: all the best, absolutely, And if it does work out

230
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,240
Speaker 2: and you decide to get married, Susan's a wedding officient,

231
00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:30,679
Speaker 2: so I just to announce too. Let's get to it.

232
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 2: Let's get to the next question. We'll do that at

233
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 2: the end. Hi, Kathy and Susan. I'm in such a

234
00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:44,200
Speaker 2: shitty This question is from anonymonymous. Yeah, well, I say

235
00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:46,679
Speaker 2: shitty and I'm not all this time. All right, Hi,

236
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,040
Speaker 2: Kathy and Susan. I'm in such a shitty position and

237
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:54,000
Speaker 2: I really need help. The other day, my boyfriend didn't

238
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: realize I was home, and I heard him talking to

239
00:12:56,920 --> 00:13:00,200
Speaker 2: his parents about how he hated the Christmas gid I

240
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 2: gave him. He was asking for their advice, wondering if

241
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 2: he should tell me or not. Based on the past week,

242
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,880
Speaker 2: I'm guessing the opted to not tell me. I want

243
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 2: to be a better gift giver and my feelings are

244
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,960
Speaker 2: really hurt, so I want to talk about it. But

245
00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,920
Speaker 2: how do I tell him I know this info. I

246
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,359
Speaker 2: don't want him to feel like I breached his privacy

247
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 2: since I was eavesdropping, but there's no way I can

248
00:13:25,559 --> 00:13:28,599
Speaker 2: keep this in Thank you so much, Go, Susan, go.

249
00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:29,480
Speaker 2: What would you say?

250
00:13:29,600 --> 00:13:31,480
Speaker 1: God, bless you baby. Well, you don't have to tell

251
00:13:31,520 --> 00:13:34,240
Speaker 1: him you were listening, but you could tell him, Babe.

252
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 1: I get the feeling you're not really crazy about this gift,

253
00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 1: and you know what, it will not hurt my feelings.

254
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,000
Speaker 1: My poor ex husband Every year, I said, Dicky, let

255
00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,160
Speaker 1: me just pick out what I wanted because I didn't

256
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: like anything and anybody that knows, me knows. If I

257
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:53,080
Speaker 1: buy them something I want to know it's not hurt

258
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 1: my feelings. It's something that I thought you'd like, but

259
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,760
Speaker 1: I could be wrong. So get something that you really like.

260
00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 1: What you do, be honest and just say, I feel

261
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,000
Speaker 1: like you know you're not crazy about it. Let's take

262
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:05,560
Speaker 1: it back.

263
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:11,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that there there are several things at

264
00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,720
Speaker 2: work here, but the biggest thing is if you're not

265
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 2: being honest with him about this, what else are you

266
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 2: guys going to be, you know, not honest with each

267
00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: other about.

268
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: So he's not being on He doesn't want to hurt

269
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:25,600
Speaker 1: her feelings, but it sounds like.

270
00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 2: Well, that's not being honest if he doesn't. If he

271
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 2: really doesn't like the gift, he should just be saying, you.

272
00:14:31,200 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 1: Know what, he's our help. She is because she heard it.

273
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 2: Right, and that's what I'm saying. So she should say

274
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 2: to him either nothing or the next time the gift

275
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 2: giving opportunity comes around, Hey, boyfriend, i'd like to do

276
00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:53,600
Speaker 2: a B or whatever it is. Let's go shopping together

277
00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,520
Speaker 2: and pick out something you would like. This is not

278
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,800
Speaker 2: her shadowing. If she gave him one gift that he

279
00:14:58,840 --> 00:14:59,520
Speaker 2: doesn't want.

280
00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 1: And she probably it feels really bad.

281
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,840
Speaker 2: And take it, unless it was a portion he really

282
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,200
Speaker 2: wanted a Maseratoh forget it.

283
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: Well, Anonymous, we wish you luck. Let us know how

284
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,320
Speaker 1: you handled that one, all right. Question number three is

285
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,280
Speaker 1: also an anonymous question. Hi, Susan and Kathy. I really

286
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:23,560
Speaker 1: need help about a very sensitive subject. I have no

287
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,520
Speaker 1: idea what to do. I just found out that my

288
00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:30,600
Speaker 1: twelve year old daughter is a bully and my heart

289
00:15:30,680 --> 00:15:34,200
Speaker 1: is broken. Apparently she's making fun of the girls in

290
00:15:34,200 --> 00:15:37,640
Speaker 1: her class and her friends are starting to follow in

291
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:42,040
Speaker 1: her footsteps. Where do you guys think this is coming from.

292
00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 1: I haven't seen any signs of this at home. She

293
00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 1: doesn't fight with her siblings, and she's respectful to myself

294
00:15:49,840 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: and her dad my husband. How do I tackle this?

295
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 1: Thank you ladies so much.

296
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:59,200
Speaker 2: Oh well, I got to jump in because the having

297
00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:04,160
Speaker 2: been an educator for you know, many moons. The first thing, Anonymous,

298
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 2: I'd be asking is how did you find out facts?

299
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 2: Who told you? If it's one of your daughter's friends

300
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:19,640
Speaker 2: mothers that kind of thing. Yeah, no, that is of pivot.

301
00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: That is primary importance here. So first thing I would

302
00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 2: do is, you know, you have to get it from

303
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 2: a reliable source. A reliable source would be an administrator

304
00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,320
Speaker 2: at her school, a teacher.

305
00:16:31,880 --> 00:16:33,880
Speaker 1: Quite possibly that's how she found out.

306
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know. She said she's making fun of

307
00:16:36,880 --> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 2: the girls in her class, and her friends are starting

308
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 2: to follow in her footsteps. So I could easily, having,

309
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: like I said, having worked in schools a long time,

310
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 2: I could easily see that her friends anonymous as daughter's friends.

311
00:16:51,840 --> 00:16:55,480
Speaker 2: Mother called her and said, you know your daughter and

312
00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:59,640
Speaker 2: now my daughter. So I'm going to table any answer

313
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:04,520
Speaker 2: and non miss that I have until I know you

314
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 2: know where it's coming from, if it is coming from

315
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 2: a reliable source, and again that would be a teacher.

316
00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: A would you tell her to do if we forget

317
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 1: your heart being broken? I get it, but you need

318
00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 1: to nip it in the butt.

319
00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:20,320
Speaker 2: Well she's not going to nip it in the bud.

320
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,840
Speaker 2: You probably you could start a conversation with her, is

321
00:17:25,119 --> 00:17:27,880
Speaker 2: what's going on in your life? Those are the kinds

322
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 2: of conversations being respectful. I don't Again, I don't have

323
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:32,919
Speaker 2: enough information here to answer.

324
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:36,800
Speaker 1: I know you're going to be in denial if you're

325
00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,040
Speaker 1: accused of something, So you don't want to attack her

326
00:17:40,200 --> 00:17:43,440
Speaker 1: and accuse her of something because she'll deny it. Right,

327
00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:46,399
Speaker 1: You almost have to catch them in the act or

328
00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:49,640
Speaker 1: just talk about or show them. I know, I've seen

329
00:17:49,680 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 1: it on TikTok myself, these videos that people are downright

330
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 1: bullies and mean and what the other person is going through?

331
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:00,560
Speaker 1: Share that. How would you like that if it for you?

332
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:03,520
Speaker 2: Or yeah, how would you feel? However, but I do

333
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,719
Speaker 2: think something. Typically bullies aren't bullies because they wake up

334
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:09,680
Speaker 2: in the morning and say, you know, I think I'm

335
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,199
Speaker 2: going to be a shitty person. Kids in my class.

336
00:18:12,359 --> 00:18:16,600
Speaker 2: There's usually something else going on. Often bullies have been bullied,

337
00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 2: believe it or not.

338
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 1: Sometimes so she sounds like she's a leader because the

339
00:18:21,080 --> 00:18:22,919
Speaker 1: girls are following her, right.

340
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,840
Speaker 2: So yeah, so I think you need to do some

341
00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 2: more reconnaissance here. But let us know, Anonymous, it's never

342
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,000
Speaker 2: it is always hard. We always you know, we love

343
00:18:33,040 --> 00:18:36,360
Speaker 2: our children and we want to believe that they never

344
00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:40,159
Speaker 2: do anything wrong. And bullying is a very serious.

345
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,919
Speaker 1: And I know I'm feeling something right now because my

346
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:46,679
Speaker 1: grandson I've been through this, Yeah, and he gets bullied

347
00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 1: at school and it's awful, and you can call the principal.

348
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: They don't do anything. Maybe they try in their way

349
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,280
Speaker 1: what they could do. But on our end, it's continuing.

350
00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,159
Speaker 1: How do you stop it?

351
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:05,000
Speaker 2: Well, it's oftentimes you can't stop you you know, sometimes

352
00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 2: you can stop the bullying. Sometimes you can't. What the

353
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:12,840
Speaker 2: goal here is is to try to get your child,

354
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 2: to get your child to get some coping mechanisms that

355
00:19:17,560 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 2: you know they can deal with it. It's never easy,

356
00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,159
Speaker 2: it's not, but you know what, sometimes bullying. I was

357
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,760
Speaker 2: bullied as a child, Yeah, but not not.

Speaker 2: Go for a ride? Honestly, I I am not big

404
00:21:57,359 --> 00:22:01,199
Speaker 2: on pickup lines because usually I've talked with someone on

405
00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,040
Speaker 2: the phone first, and it's I've gotten to him a

406
00:22:03,080 --> 00:22:06,560
Speaker 2: little bit, I think, you know. So to me, I really,

407
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,560
Speaker 2: pick up lines don't typically work on me, Like, hey, baby,

408
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,480

Speaker 2: be I'm like, goodbye, move along.

411
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:21,360
Speaker 1: Okay, here's another one. How do you make your partner

412
00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 1: feel special?

413
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:27,720
Speaker 2: Well, if I had one, it would be doing and

414
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,480
Speaker 2: I'm being serious, it would be doing nice things for him,

415
00:22:30,600 --> 00:22:36,920
Speaker 2: Surprising him, breakfast in bed, uh, you know, just doing

416
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 2: something some quot titty and little thing like if he

417
00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:42,560
Speaker 2: usually takes the trash out and he got home from

418
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:45,560
Speaker 2: work late, I would have to trash out just something,

419
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,200
Speaker 2: pick up his dry cleaning for him because he ran

420
00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 2: out of time. Just something small. It doesn't have to

421
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,080
Speaker 2: be ershout. What about you?

422
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,800
Speaker 1: I feel the same also, I would try to figure

423
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: out what his love language was, and that would be

424
00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:00,880
Speaker 1: a way to make him feel special.

425
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,320
Speaker 2: Well, you would know the other thing, Susan, don't lie.

426
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:07,879
Speaker 2: You'd cook some fabulous meal for him, and you know

427
00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 2: how I'd make my partner feel special. There's one more

428
00:23:10,119 --> 00:23:13,960
Speaker 2: thing I would do, Susan, partner and I are coming

429
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 2: over for dinner. Get dinner on the table, all right.

430
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,000
Speaker 1: It could be why we're still single, that's right.

431
00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 2: Do you believe him love at first sight? I do

432
00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,440
Speaker 2: so do Why tell me? That's when I met my husband.

433
00:23:35,440 --> 00:23:36,639
Speaker 2: I've told this story before.

434
00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:37,119
Speaker 1: We know.

435
00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,160
Speaker 2: I know. I let him at a fraternity party, looked

436
00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 2: him across the room, told my roommate I'm going to

437
00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,719
Speaker 2: marry that guy, and eighteen months later I did. There

438
00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:47,199
Speaker 2: was just something in his smile.

439
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:49,680
Speaker 1: Do you kiss on the first date?

440
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:54,160
Speaker 2: Absolutely? Because if I'm not attracted to the guy, there's

441
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:57,639
Speaker 2: not going to be a second date. So yeah, what

442
00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:58,240
Speaker 2: about you?

443
00:23:59,119 --> 00:23:59,520

Speaker 3: Have to?

445
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:02,480
Speaker 2: We don't have to.

446
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 1: If you like them, yeah, all right? Or if they

447
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: don't approach you, then I don't go after them.

448
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 2: Okay, Susan, I'm going on the next I'm asking the

449
00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:16,040
Speaker 2: next question. I want you to think carefully and realize

455
00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:37,240
Speaker 2: gotta tell everybody. Susan had a date the other day.

456
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,200
Speaker 2: She called me. I was in a meeting. I called

457
00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:45,159
Speaker 2: her back and she she went to the bathroom to

458
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 2: call to talk to me about this guy and ask

459
00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,720

463
00:25:01,119 --> 00:25:04,960
Speaker 2: asked this question before. My ideal first date, I don't

464
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,639
Speaker 2: really care what it is. The thing I don't like

465
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:11,119
Speaker 2: is a movie or because I want to talk to

466
00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,159
Speaker 2: the person. So my ideal first date is a place

467
00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,760
Speaker 2: where I'm trying not to be funny, but what came

468
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:20,800
Speaker 2: through my mind was, you know, at a very expensive

469
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 2: restaurant with very expensive wine that he's paying for and

470
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:27,000
Speaker 2: great conversation. But you know, I'm saying a place where

471
00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:29,040
Speaker 2: we can talk and have a cocktail and just get

472
00:25:29,080 --> 00:25:30,200
Speaker 2: to know each other, what about you?

473
00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:35,719
Speaker 1: I just realized that an activity like playing top golf

474
00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 1: or going out to play golf, or doing something that

475
00:25:39,359 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 1: it's more quiet, that you can still get to know

476
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 1: each other, yes, and have some laughs and things. I

477
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,199
Speaker 1: do enjoy dinner, but that's you're sitting across the table

478
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:50,600
Speaker 1: and gu forbid, you're at a loss for words. You

479
00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:51,880
Speaker 1: don't know, did you.

480
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 2: Really well, well, did you really say you at a

481
00:25:55,800 --> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 2: loss for words? Either one of us not happening?

482
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:03,040
Speaker 1: Okay, How how do you handle quarrels in a relationship?

483
00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:06,640
Speaker 2: Well, what I would do now is very different from

484
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:09,040
Speaker 2: what I would have done when I was my younger self.

485
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:14,600
Speaker 2: But I think you have to have some ground rules

486
00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 2: around hate. I don't really like the word quarrel, but

487
00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 2: you have to have rules around disagreements because disagreements are

488
00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:26,800
Speaker 2: good for a marriage or a relationship because it helps

489
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:32,240
Speaker 2: you solidify who you are, what you want. Can you

490
00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:34,600
Speaker 2: deal with the situation whatever it is, But it has

491
00:26:34,640 --> 00:26:39,480
Speaker 2: to be respectful conversation. So I try, and it's hard

492
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:41,080
Speaker 2: for me. I'm going to be honest, because I do

493
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 2: interrupt a lot. It's honestly, it's my worst character trait.

494
00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:49,320
Speaker 2: But I think trying to listen and put myself in

495
00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 2: the other person's position and try to understand.

496
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,480
Speaker 1: That you want to do. But how do you handle.

497
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,520
Speaker 2: That's how I handle them now I didn't then now

498
00:26:57,560 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 2: I try to listen. What about you?

499
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,960
Speaker 1: I'm bad because I always have to get my point across,

500
00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,760
Speaker 1: Like I don't want you to be mad at me.

501
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:09,400
Speaker 1: And we're having an argument, a quarrel, a disagreement, Yeah,

502
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,000
Speaker 1: but I have to give my reasons as to why

503
00:27:12,040 --> 00:27:14,280
Speaker 1: this happened or whatever the case may be.

504
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,800
Speaker 2: Yes, but when you and I have had disagreements, you

505
00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:19,800
Speaker 2: do that. You get your point across. I get my

506
00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:23,960
Speaker 2: point across. But the point is we listen to each other, right,

507
00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:24,520
Speaker 2: So I.

508
00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:26,840
Speaker 1: Don't know that because we're more mature.

509
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 2: Now, yes, and you know what winning again not my younger,

510
00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 2: but when you're younger, it's getting your way for me.

511
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 2: It was, I'm not that way anymore.

512
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:40,520
Speaker 1: For me, it's proven my point. You know. I don't

513
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,159
Speaker 1: like to be well, I'm getting off tough topic a

514
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: little bit, but I don't want to be accused of

515
00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 1: something that I did not do or did not intend

516
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: to do. And I'll admit fault, but and I'm sorry

517
00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,080
Speaker 1: you know what I mean. But yeah, yeah, I don't scream.

518
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:59,000
Speaker 1: I was never a person that screamed and fought.

519
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 2: Well, that's not going to get you anywhere. It doesn't

520
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 2: get anyone. Okay, how do you decide? How do you

521
00:28:06,640 --> 00:28:08,720
Speaker 2: I get to answer this for Susan, how do you

522
00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,080
Speaker 2: decide whether or not you'll go on a second date

523
00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:11,639
Speaker 2: with someone?

524
00:28:12,400 --> 00:28:16,160
Speaker 1: If I felt some chemistry, I'd like to see more. Yeah,

525
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: I'd try it again.

526
00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say, that's the same for me. If

527
00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,560
Speaker 2: I've had a good time, you know an none Susan

528
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 2: eat well.

529
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:25,639
Speaker 1: And you have a good time, you enjoy that company.

530
00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:31,399
Speaker 2: Even if I don't feel chemistry necessarily, even if I don't,

531
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 2: if I feel that this is somebody that I had

532
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,760
Speaker 2: fun with, sometimes getting to know someone as a slow

533
00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,040
Speaker 2: burn and it takes time. When I was younger, it

534
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,160
Speaker 2: was like if I didn't, you know, feel passionate in

535
00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:46,560
Speaker 2: the first second. But now it's like, I don't know.

536
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:48,800
Speaker 2: Let me give this some time and say.

537
00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:51,120
Speaker 1: If I'm right, good time, right, all right, all right,

538
00:28:51,120 --> 00:28:54,440
Speaker 1: here we go. When do you think it is the

539
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: right time to make a relationship official.

540
00:28:58,680 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 2: I don't know what you mean by official monogamous.

541
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,320
Speaker 1: I guess so like to see anybody else.

542
00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:09,320
Speaker 2: That's when he puts my name on his checkbook. Just kidding.

543
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:12,800
Speaker 2: People don't write me mean comments. I'm joking. The right

544
00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 2: time to make a relationship official is when you and

545
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,560
Speaker 2: your partner feel it's time. And you know what, sometimes

546
00:29:19,560 --> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 2: there's discord because one will be ready and the other

547
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 2: one isn't. It's conversation, you know, you know when you're not.

548
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 1: For me, It would be when we were deciding to

549
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:32,000
Speaker 1: be intimate that it's just one person for me.

550
00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:34,400
Speaker 2: If we're gonna if you're going to be intimate with

551
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:37,120
Speaker 2: that person, you're not going to see anyone. I think

552
00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:40,320
Speaker 2: you're a one guy woman anyway, whether you're sleeping with

553
00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,080
Speaker 2: him or not. You just want to date one guy

554
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 2: at a time, and I'm that way. Okay, what's something

555
00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:50,920
Speaker 2: you wish people understood about dating you?

556
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:54,360
Speaker 1: Oh? God, I'm gonna go on this one right.

557
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:57,200
Speaker 2: You know we're both going to the same Our answer

558
00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:57,960
Speaker 2: is going to be the same.

559
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: That we are sweethearts, yeah, and you're not. Just you know,

560
00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: I am a big personality. We are big personalities. But

561
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:11,760
Speaker 1: to get to know us knows that there's another side

562
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: to us. Yeah, and.

563
00:30:15,480 --> 00:30:19,360
Speaker 2: I think people that get to know us will say,

564
00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 2: I don't know. We had somebody we had on the

565
00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 2: podcast said some people are getting to know strong women.

566
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,680
Speaker 2: You realize that you know, you're comfortable in yourself, you

567
00:30:30,720 --> 00:30:32,840
Speaker 2: can get to know that person. So that's the kind

568
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 2: of guy I'm looking for that knows I'm a strong personality,

569
00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:41,120
Speaker 2: but knows there's a whole lot more besides that. All right, Oh,

570
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:43,880
Speaker 2: can I ask this question? And can I wait? I'm

571
00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 2: going to ask this question. It's a moral quandary. Not

572
00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,600
Speaker 2: I'm going to ask and answer this question for Susan.

573
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:53,240
Speaker 2: Are you a slow burned Susan? Or do you fall fast?

574
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 2: Susan falls at warp speed. She beats the sound of light.

575
00:30:59,680 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 1: She all fast.

576
00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,240
Speaker 2: She can fall faster than we can get a man

577
00:31:04,360 --> 00:31:04,960
Speaker 2: to the moon.

578
00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,040
Speaker 1: But then I fall out too.

579
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 2: Okay, go ahead, all right?

580
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:14,960
Speaker 1: How do you like to celebrate anniversaries or special occasions?

581
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:19,880
Speaker 2: I mean, like anyone else, I you know, I love

582
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:24,000
Speaker 2: to get flowers. I love a special trip. I like

583
00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,200
Speaker 2: to talk for dinner. But you know what, I would

584
00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 2: be just as happy having a bottle of wine sitting

585
00:31:28,280 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 2: in front of the fire. Yeah, as long as you

586
00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 2: know flowers.

587
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: What's one thing you always bring to a relationship?

588
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,840
Speaker 2: Can I answer that for you? This is not moral,

589
00:31:40,240 --> 00:31:42,800
Speaker 2: but it's so easy to answer for you. And Susan

590
00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,120
Speaker 2: brings an out the type. See I knew it. We

591
00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 2: really do know each other. Susan's always hungry. What's what's

592
00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,920
Speaker 2: something I bring to a relationship? I think I bring

593
00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:58,840
Speaker 2: humor and fun, laughter and kindness. What about you?

594
00:31:59,880 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: I will be the same?

595
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:05,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, And why are we single? Susan and people?

596
00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:10,480
Speaker 1: I bring people to relationship? They meet my friends, all right?

597
00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:16,160
Speaker 2: To hand us off? What's the one thing someone must

598
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:23,520
Speaker 2: know about you before dating you? When Susan gets hungry,

599
00:32:23,600 --> 00:32:24,320
Speaker 2: she needs to eat.

600
00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: I'm an open book and I get hungry.

601
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 2: Tell you, folks, if you're going on a date with Susan,

602
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:32,600
Speaker 2: get prepared. You're having lunch, dinner, or smack.

603
00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 1: Or I'll be cooking it. I don't care.

604
00:32:34,680 --> 00:32:36,200
Speaker 2: I don't know. What's the one thing someone needs to

605
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:42,600
Speaker 2: know about me? I would say that I've lived a

606
00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:46,880
Speaker 2: charmed life that even though I've had some horrific things

607
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:50,600
Speaker 2: happen to me and to my family, I am grateful

608
00:32:50,880 --> 00:32:52,960
Speaker 2: for the life that I have. And then I'm going

609
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 2: to bring that.

610
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 1: Would agree that one thing people should know about us

611
00:32:57,680 --> 00:33:01,120
Speaker 1: is we love our families. I mean, they're they're important

612
00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:01,480
Speaker 1: to us.

613
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:04,480
Speaker 2: Yeah that's another one. Yeah that's another one.

614
00:33:04,920 --> 00:33:07,400
Speaker 1: Oh boy, Well that does it for this episode. Kath
