1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: Hey guys, I'm Kaylee Shore, and this is too much 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:19,079 Speaker 1: to say in question it out of you. On this 3 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,759 Speaker 1: week's episode, we're going to talk about dating in Nashville. 4 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:24,640 Speaker 1: I mean, the crazy thing is, Nashville is a big city. 5 00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 1: Nashville Metro has like a million people in it. But 6 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 1: when you're dating, it feels like there's twenty people and 7 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: everybody knows each other and everybody's everyone's ex and it 8 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 1: feels a lot like a small town. And I grew 9 00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:42,520 Speaker 1: up in a small city. I mean felt really really 10 00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:45,160 Speaker 1: like a small town. Um. I grew up in Portland, Maine, 11 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: and dating was weird there. I mean, anytime we're dating 12 00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 1: in high school, you're pulling from the same pool of people, 13 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: you know. So it's just insane to me how much 14 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: Nashville feels like that. So I wasn't single as an 15 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:07,800 Speaker 1: adult until four and that was weird for sure, because 16 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:11,520 Speaker 1: all of my experience was as a high schooler. And like, 17 00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, you like learn in high school and 18 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 1: that's your first love and whatever, but like, it's so 19 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,400 Speaker 1: different when you're in your twenties, and so online dating 20 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: and dating apps weren't even like a thing when I 21 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 1: was in high school. I mean you had like e 22 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: harmony for like, you know, divorces, but like you didn't 23 00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 1: have Bumble and Tender and all of that stuff. I mean, 24 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 1: we didn't even have Uber. I feel so old saying this, 25 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 1: but wow, So at twenty four, like that was the 26 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,960 Speaker 1: first time I ever used a dating app, and I 27 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,080 Speaker 1: don't think anything could have prepared me for that. Let's see. Okay, 28 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 1: So my first time using Tender was summer of I 29 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: had just gone through my breakup and I was like, 30 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,960 Speaker 1: let's meet somebody, and I have an affinity for musician, 31 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 1: and so I met a guy in a band and 32 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 1: we talked for a while before he went on a date. 33 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 1: But like, this was literally the first guy I talked 34 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: to after my six year relationship, and um, we talked 35 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:14,720 Speaker 1: a little bit, we had a lot in common, he 36 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: seems super cool. We went on one day and like 37 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: definitely like hit it off. I felt like it was 38 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,320 Speaker 1: a good time. And then we went on a second 39 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: one and he ended up like freaking out and being 40 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 1: like I'm just I'm just trying to get married one 41 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 1: day and I feel like you can't even commit to anything, 42 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: and blah blah blah blah, blah. I was like, dude, 43 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 1: I told you I just stopped dating somebody after like 44 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,840 Speaker 1: six years, Like what do you want for me? And 45 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 1: it was it was very intense. And after that conversation, 46 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 1: he literally like he was putting his shoes on at 47 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: my house and I was like, oh, that's weird, and 48 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 1: then he just walked out. But he literally just left. 49 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 1: And I was like, Okay, Tinder, Tinder one, Kaylee zero. 50 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 1: But I didn't realize that Tinder isn't just on Tinder, 51 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: that it actually like bleeds into your real life. And 52 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:06,919 Speaker 1: so it was during cmafest and I was on there, 53 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: and I like, people can see you on there even 54 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: if you don't match with them, so it's like you're 55 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:18,839 Speaker 1: very like exposed. And this table of guys yells, oh 56 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: my god, that's Kaylee from Tinder. And like in my 57 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,280 Speaker 1: Tinder picture, I was wearing these black and white beetle 58 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 1: juice pants I wear, and like on this particular night, 59 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 1: I was wearing like checkered overall, so I feel like 60 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:32,799 Speaker 1: I was giving off a similar vibe. So I was 61 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,160 Speaker 1: definitely not subtle um just being on brand, you know, 62 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: But I was so mortified and I'm like literally ducked 63 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: into a corner at this bar in Nashville, and I'm 64 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,640 Speaker 1: like talking to my friends. I'm like, we have to leave, 65 00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,840 Speaker 1: and they're like, Kaylee, that's just like how it works. 66 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 1: And I'm like, I don't like this. I don't like that. 67 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: This is that what works. And so I definitely I 68 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: think I was not Tinder much longer after that. I 69 00:03:56,840 --> 00:03:58,600 Speaker 1: would use it when I was like in another city, 70 00:03:58,680 --> 00:04:04,520 Speaker 1: but that is not ideal. Also, the inspiration for this 71 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: episode came from the fact that my roommates and I 72 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: discovered something uncompany the other day. We're all sitting on 73 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 1: the couch and this guy's name came up and me 74 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,640 Speaker 1: and my roommates Avanna, looked at each other and we're like, uh, wait, 75 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: did you And She's like, yeah, did you? And I 76 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:23,680 Speaker 1: was like yeah, and we're like, oh my god. And 77 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:28,480 Speaker 1: then we started comparing notes and um, her and her 78 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: other roommate had also, you know, shared a uh had 79 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: a had a common man in between them. Um. Also 80 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:40,680 Speaker 1: fun fact, actually not so fun fact, but the term 81 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: eskimo was actually really really offensive and I found that 82 00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: out recently. It was given to indigenous tribes um Up 83 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: in Canada, and it was about like it means eater 84 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:56,040 Speaker 1: of raw meat, which is like really rude. And anyways, 85 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: so eskimo as a slur. So I found another way 86 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:03,200 Speaker 1: of saying eskimo sisters, and that's completely, um, not harmful. 87 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,120 Speaker 1: And it is lumberjack sisters because you shared the same 88 00:05:06,160 --> 00:05:09,160 Speaker 1: piece of wood, so you're welcome, uh please use that 89 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: instead of the offensive one. Um, but that's me and 90 00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:16,880 Speaker 1: my roommates. We found that out, so that's pretty hilarious. 91 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: So there's this bar in Nashville called Red Door and 92 00:05:20,680 --> 00:05:25,840 Speaker 1: it is where everybody goes. I mean, it's it feels 93 00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: like Cheers but for the music industry. And I personally 94 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: was like, I'm not going to hook up with a 95 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: guy that I met at Red Door because I don't 96 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 1: want to have to see them because this is my bar. 97 00:05:37,640 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 1: So I try to like, you know, stay outside of that, 98 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:41,640 Speaker 1: like go on the east side meet the guy or whatever. 99 00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:45,480 Speaker 1: But um, I obviously ended up breaking that rule because 100 00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: that's what you do, um, you break rules. And it 101 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:54,760 Speaker 1: was miserable because Okay, so when this whole thing with 102 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:58,080 Speaker 1: this guy started, he was really into me and I 103 00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,760 Speaker 1: was not into him. And we've been friends for a 104 00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:04,280 Speaker 1: while and when we like finally started hanging out like that, 105 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, I'm super not into this, and 106 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,599 Speaker 1: then I would run into him there and be like 107 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:14,080 Speaker 1: super awkward, because like I cannot be normal around somebody 108 00:06:14,080 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 1: that I've made out with. Like I'm not even saying 109 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: anything else, Like if I've made out with him, I'm 110 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: going to be fucking weird. And I don't know why 111 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 1: or why I can't shake it at twenty six years old, 112 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: but it's just like I just turned into like like 113 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 1: a cartoon version of myself, and I'm like, hey, what's up. 114 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 1: It was being natural and I'm just not. The interesting 115 00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,559 Speaker 1: thing about a podcast is you can't see the body 116 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 1: language I just did with that voice, so it's probably 117 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:44,160 Speaker 1: going to translate really weird anyway. So I just get 118 00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:47,640 Speaker 1: really uncomfortable when I saw him, and you know, he'd 119 00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,279 Speaker 1: like come up and talk to me and I'd be 120 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:54,279 Speaker 1: like very just and then like a couple of months later, 121 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,560 Speaker 1: that was like in the summer, and I think probably 122 00:06:56,600 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 1: around October I realized that I think I was into him. 123 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 1: I was just like kind of, you know, low key 124 00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: traumatized by my breakup and not ready to jump into that. 125 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 1: But I had this moment where I was like, I 126 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 1: think I'm messed up. So I wrote a song called 127 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: I Think I'm ant messed Up? And then I texted 128 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: him and was like, hey, uh, do you want to 129 00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: go to date sometime? And he was like, um, yeah 130 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:26,120 Speaker 1: for sure, and so we started hanging out and he 131 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: ended up changing his mind and then that was this 132 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: whole freaking thing and it was just super annoying. But 133 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,400 Speaker 1: then I had to run into him at red Door 134 00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: and it was miserable for a completely different reason. And 135 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:37,840 Speaker 1: so I'd see him and I would like, you know, 136 00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:39,560 Speaker 1: do the thing where I'm like looking over my shoulder 137 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,160 Speaker 1: every five seconds to see if he's there, and my 138 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 1: friends are like, hey, could you maybe pay attention to 139 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 1: the conversation.

And all of 143 00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:56,320 Speaker 1: my friends wanted to go to that bar for the 144 00:07:56,360 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: most part, and then I wanted to go to that bar. 145 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 1: And then I wanted to go that bar so I 146 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,240 Speaker 1: could run into him because then we might go home 147 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: together and like that happened a few times, and that 148 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:08,960 Speaker 1: was just like dumb and red door became this booby trap. 149 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:13,120 Speaker 1: And then there was, you know, also the whole thing 150 00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:14,680 Speaker 1: where like I would see another guy that I had 151 00:08:14,680 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: had a thing with there, but I'd be like trying 152 00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:17,800 Speaker 1: to pay attention to this one. It was just like 153 00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: not it was. It was a mess. It was a 154 00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:24,760 Speaker 1: total mess. So around the time um and summer, I 155 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: had gone on a couple of dates with this guy 156 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: who these are all musicians, by the way, I feel 157 00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: like that's worth saying. Um. So I had been talking 158 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:39,960 Speaker 1: to this guy and he was like sort of in 159 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 1: the process of ghosting, Like you just know when it's happening. 160 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: Like I would always try to be like, oh no, 161 00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: like they're probably just busy. They're probably they're not. Like 162 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: if a guy wants to talk to you, he will, 163 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 1: and there's a difference between you expecting him to text 164 00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: and then when he doesn't you're weird about it, Like 165 00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 1: he doesn't need to do that. But if you go 166 00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: forty eight hours without talking to somebody that you've been 167 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:08,560 Speaker 1: like seeing, then like they're probably ghosting. So me and 168 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 1: a friend of mine decided to go out because I 169 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 1: was like, I'm feeling really shitty about this whole guy 170 00:09:14,320 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 1: situation and you just went through a breakup, and I'm 171 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: just like, let's just go out and get dressed up 172 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: and like go fla with guys. So we do that, 173 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:30,040 Speaker 1: and uh, this was like a like a third string friend, 174 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,000 Speaker 1: you know, like we knew each other pretty well, but 175 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:33,640 Speaker 1: like we didn't hang out a lot, so this is 176 00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 1: one of the first times we really hung out hung out. 177 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:42,240 Speaker 1: And so we are five coronas in eating pizza and 178 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: I like said his name when I was talking about it, 179 00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:46,640 Speaker 1: like she'd known about the situation, but I never said 180 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: his name. And then she was like, wait, was it 181 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 1: And I was like yeah. And then she was like, oh, yeah, 182 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 1: I totally had a thing with him, and I was 183 00:09:54,280 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 1: like ah, and like it wasn't It wasn't like she 184 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: didn't still like him. We weren't competing for the same guys, 185 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: so like that's like a totally different thing. But it 186 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 1: was just so uncomfy because I told her all of 187 00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:09,880 Speaker 1: this stuff about it and then come to find out 188 00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: like not only did she know him, but she knew 189 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 1: him in the biblical sense, and um, yeah, super not ideal. 190 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: So I was just like, Okay, I'm just gonna call 191 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: an uber crown the way home and uh yeah, being 192 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:41,319 Speaker 1: more careful next time. I mean, I cannot even tell 193 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 1: you how many people I know that have like dated 194 00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: one of my friends and then dated another one and 195 00:10:47,840 --> 00:10:50,360 Speaker 1: then I'm like weird about it, and everybody's weird about it, 196 00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,280 Speaker 1: and eventually you just have to shake it, because this 197 00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,720 Speaker 1: is how Nashville is. And I made a joke on 198 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: Twitter a couple of weeks ago where I was like, 199 00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 1: whoever invented the block artist function on Spotify definitely had 200 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: as much of a problem with dating musicians as I do, 201 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 1: because like there was one time, there was one time 202 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 1: I was at a coffee shop with my friend and 203 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 1: we were both complaining about these guys, one of whom 204 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: was the one that, like my friend had like also 205 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:18,680 Speaker 1: out of thing with different friends. This is getting confusing. 206 00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 1: I wish I coul could have come up with fake 207 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 1: names for these people. Um I got nothing. Anyways, you 208 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about. This guy like comes on 209 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: the radio while me and my friend are bitching about 210 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:33,040 Speaker 1: these two guys, and I was like, oh my god, 211 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,200 Speaker 1: fuck this blah blah blah blah, blah. And then the 212 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:40,760 Speaker 1: next song, the guy that she was complaining about came on, 213 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: and I was just like, this is stupid, this is 214 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: absolutely insane, and I'm just like, and that's that's Nashville. Yeah. 215 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,760 Speaker 1: There was a time I was listening to the Wild 216 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: Country Playlist and I had to like skip three songs 217 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,200 Speaker 1: because they were like all guys I talked to. And 218 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: um uh, you know, I know that that's what happens 219 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 1: when you day musicians, and I am. I will accept 220 00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: my faith, but it doesn't mean I'm gonna like it, 221 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:13,200 Speaker 1: you know. I Also, I feel like I've had a 222 00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,959 Speaker 1: lot of friends who have dated each other, like I said, 223 00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: and recently, I think because I've had a pretty limited 224 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,800 Speaker 1: group of people who have been seeing during you know, Corona, 225 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 1: Like I have like my little quarantine pod. Almost everybody 226 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,079 Speaker 1: in my friend group got Corona really early on, so 227 00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: we can hang out safely. Moral of the story, that's 228 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: all I'm trying to communicate. But we have a pretty 229 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 1: small group of people, and like recently, everybody's lost their 230 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: goddamn minds and all started hooking up within the friend group, 231 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:46,120 Speaker 1: and I'm just like, oh my god, Like what do 232 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,360 Speaker 1: I do? And like one of my friends started seeing 233 00:12:49,800 --> 00:12:52,080 Speaker 1: my like best guy friend, and I was like, here's 234 00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:55,719 Speaker 1: the problem is if he's not telling you something like 235 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 1: I love him enough that I would lie for him, 236 00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:01,840 Speaker 1: but I love you enough that I can't lie to you, 237 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,319 Speaker 1: and like you need to find this out about him 238 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 1: on your own. But also if I withheld like background 239 00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: information that I knew, I feel like I'm a bad 240 00:13:11,880 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: friend because like if if you knew the things that 241 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: I knew and I was seeing this guy, I'd kill 242 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:20,160 Speaker 1: you if you didn't help me. Thankfully, it all worked out, 243 00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 1: like they communicated and actually think they're really adorable. Um, 244 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,160 Speaker 1: but it was weird for a second there. I was 245 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 1: really fucking weird. And then we have you know, my 246 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: current boyfriend Sam. He's the best, but he has a 247 00:13:35,480 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: thing for musicians too. Um, he also is a musician, 248 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: I mean, surprise, surprise, And he has plenty of you know, 249 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:46,760 Speaker 1: like girls, He's had things within this town. And so 250 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: when we first started dating, like I felt like I 251 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: was walking through like a booby trapped battlefield, like trying 252 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: to be like, oh, did do you have a thing 253 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: with that girl? Or like did you do the thing 254 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: with this girl? And like sometimes would be know sometimes 255 00:13:59,800 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: to be yes and as to be like h and 256 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:07,960 Speaker 1: um not fun and like I'm I've talked about this 257 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: on the Jealousy episode and stuff too, and it's not 258 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 1: like I'm like threatened or whatever. But if I can't 259 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 1: act normal around somebody that I've made out with, I 260 00:14:15,320 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: probably can't act normal around somebody that my boyfriend's made 261 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 1: out with either. Like it's just I don't know. I 262 00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:26,480 Speaker 1: think it's probably partially because I didn't date until I 263 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: was twenty four, and so like I I didn't have 264 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: that whole thing where you, you know, hook up with 265 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,320 Speaker 1: several people on your floor in college and then like 266 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:37,040 Speaker 1: it's just not a big deal and you can shake 267 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 1: it off. Like I never had that, so it's like 268 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: still very weird to me. Never stopped me, but uh 269 00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: definitely definitely has made me uncomfortable in bars. And like 270 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: I didn't have any friends that had dated Sam, but 271 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,240 Speaker 1: I had some acquaintances you had, and it was just 272 00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 1: like awkward. And I don't think anybody's like cares, like 273 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: there's nobody actively out there like trying to sabotage O 274 00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 1: our relationship, but it doesn't make it any more fun 275 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: and we haven't even really gone out because we started 276 00:15:06,920 --> 00:15:12,520 Speaker 1: dating um February of and so we only had like 277 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: a month and a half to be out and around people. 278 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: So I'm sure when things open back up, we'll have 279 00:15:17,520 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 1: a whole another the whole other wave of this ship. 280 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:26,800 Speaker 1: But anyways, I met Sam four times before I remembered 281 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: him and uh, but like the time like we actually 282 00:15:31,400 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: first like hung out, like we wrote a song together, 283 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,200 Speaker 1: and that was like December of nineteen, and you know, 284 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,000 Speaker 1: I thought we were friends. He thought I hated him, 285 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: which is hilarious. I didn't at all. He just I 286 00:15:42,080 --> 00:15:45,800 Speaker 1: don't know where that came from, but I thought we 287 00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 1: were buds. And I was at Red Door with my 288 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: roommate Emma, and this was probably January, and she was like, 289 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: oh my god, that's San Bargo, Like I think he's 290 00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: so cute. I see him on Instagram because she has 291 00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: such a thing for guys with long hair, and at 292 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,640 Speaker 1: that time, he had really long hair. And I was like, 293 00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: oh my god, like I'm super close friends with him, 294 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 1: like I'll go introduced to So I introduced him to 295 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 1: Emma and he like clearly didn't pick up on the 296 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 1: fact that I was trying to be like, hey, here's 297 00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:13,640 Speaker 1: my super hot friend, like you're like, you guys should talk, 298 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:18,320 Speaker 1: and like, thankfully he didn't, because I mean, wow, that 299 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 1: would have been because I think that I really think 300 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 1: him and I are just super meant for each other. 301 00:16:24,080 --> 00:16:25,640 Speaker 1: So if he was like over at my house all 302 00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: the time, we probably would have figured out that we 303 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: have this crazy chemistry, but he would have been dating 304 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: my roommate and all of a sudden we'd be an 305 00:16:30,640 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 1: episode of Friends and just not not the vibe. But 306 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 1: now it's like this really funny joke and um, Emma 307 00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:39,320 Speaker 1: is in an awesome relationship with a super cool guy, 308 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,440 Speaker 1: and we're like, yep, everything worked out exactly like it 309 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:46,080 Speaker 1: should have, but wow, it almost really went wrong. I 310 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: think that the reason for all of this is because 311 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 1: obviously the music and like Nashville itself is big, but 312 00:16:52,600 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: the music industry small, and it's a town where like 313 00:16:55,920 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 1: literally everybody has something in common, and most times it's music. 314 00:17:00,120 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: And you know, when you're talking about the Red Door Pool, 315 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:07,560 Speaker 1: you're talking about people who listen to the same kind 316 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 1: of music and people who have similar jobs and obviously 317 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,439 Speaker 1: know the same people. And it's just a matter of 318 00:17:14,520 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: time before you know, somebody gets a crush on someone. 319 00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 1: And when I met Sam, I was terrified because I 320 00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,439 Speaker 1: was like, wait, he goes to Red Door just as 321 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,080 Speaker 1: much as I do. And I don't want to give 322 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: up my bar, like I don't want to. I don't 323 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,919 Speaker 1: want to ruin this bar for myself, and I have 324 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:31,880 Speaker 1: a couple of songs about it that I was writing. 325 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:34,240 Speaker 1: But he was the first guy ever let kiss me 326 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: in that bar, and I think probably the last one. 327 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 1: Not because I because I think, yeah, you get it, 328 00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:44,160 Speaker 1: because I really like him.
