00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: My favorite messages from somebody that was like, does scrubbing

20
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: and have like a budget? I feel like they have

21
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 1: an outdated jingle. They haven't outdated this. They don't have

22
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: mic flags, they don't have whatever. I was like, dang,

23
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 1: the answer is no, I sent you. Did I send

24
00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:35,399
Speaker 1: you that screen?

25
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 5: It was like, yeah, we have a Dear Bonnia episode today, Yes.

26
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,520
Speaker 4: We do, and I want to start us off with

27
00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 4: my Dear Bonia. I don't even know where I saw this.

28
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 4: Mobe's in our prep you might have seen it too. Anyway,

29
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,280
Speaker 4: I thought this is a funny question. So would you rather,

30
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 4: but you have to one of these has to happen.

31
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 4: Would you rather walk in on your parents in bed together?

32
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 4: Or have them walk in on you in bed together?

33
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: Have them walk in on me.

34
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 4: Like, but not just in bed together like?

35
00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: Yes you would? Yes, much better for me personally.

36
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:22,519
Speaker 3: All right, Becca, this is really unfortunate. I think I'd

37
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:23,720
Speaker 3: rather walk in on them.

38
00:02:23,960 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: Oh dang, why, I know, like a perverted answer. Really, yeah,

39
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 1: I think.

40
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 3: It's more perverted for them to want to walk in

41
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,639
Speaker 3: on me doing it.

42
00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 6: I don't nobody wants this to happen, it's just this happens.

43
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,960
Speaker 2: I think I'd be able to like process it and

44
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,360
Speaker 2: move on easier than they would.

45
00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:51,320
Speaker 4: I think I agree, yes, because it feels like the

46
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,200
Speaker 4: awkwardness it was gonna be awkwardness either way.

47
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 1: I guess, Mark, this is a horrible question.

48
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 4: Are the conversation I saw the summer I saw.

49
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,440
Speaker 3: Taking a step further? What position?

50
00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 4: All right, fine, let's just going to the normal deer bond.

51
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:24,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, just move on, let's move on. Answer please, I

52
00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,480
Speaker 6: guess I'd rather have them walking on me.

53
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: Yeah?

54
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:32,800
Speaker 6: Better because since we didn't say what position, maybe me

55
00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 6: and my wife are just holding hands all right?

56
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 4: It was a split decision.

57
00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: Better like doing like you know you're.

58
00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 6: Actually like mid coitus?

59
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 3: Yes, you are just holding hands?

60
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:53,600
Speaker 6: Isn't that how it's? Is there another way?

61
00:03:53,880 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 4: Yes? Childless From Anika High, Banya and Meston Day one

62
00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 4: scrubbery here, I just want to start saying thank you

63
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,520
Speaker 4: for making me laugh every week. I truly admire the

64
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 4: relationships you all have with your significant others. I'm going

65
00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 4: through a breakup after five years and now I'm thirty.

66
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 4: I'm trying to reflect them, but I want moving forward.

67
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 4: My question is, how do you actually know when someone

68
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,919
Speaker 4: is the one? People always say when you know, you know,

69
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:21,760
Speaker 4: but I'd love to hear your take on it. Becca

70
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,440
Speaker 4: and Tanya. You both seem so happy in your relationships,

71
00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 4: and I love how you talk about your partners with

72
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:28,560
Speaker 4: so much love and respect. It's inspiring and makes me

73
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 4: want to hold out for that kind of connection and

74
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:32,719
Speaker 4: not settle. You also seem like you never get sick

75
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 4: of each other, even though I'm sure you have your moments.

76
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 4: Any advice on how to recognize your person would be

77
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 4: greatly appreciated. Ps. I recently cleaned my water bottles because

78
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,200
Speaker 4: I was pulling a Tanya. Love you guys.

79
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 1: Wow, the fact that that's now called I'm considered pulling

80
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:47,479
Speaker 1: a Tanya.

81
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe Anika can inspire you to wash your ball.

82
00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: I watched it probably twice since we've had that conversation.

83
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:01,760
Speaker 6: Not enough, it's.

84
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:02,839
Speaker 4: Okay to start.

85
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:09,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, the straw is often yes, yeah, great, great, great.

86
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,640
Speaker 3: Just to be clear, do you want to answer?

87
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: I don't think I know the answer, Like, how do

88
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,760
Speaker 1: you know they're the one? I feel like with Robbie,

89
00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 1: I literally knew very quickly that like my inner beings

90
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: told me that he he was it.

91
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would like to say that it was the

92
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 2: same thing, like, it's not really something that I have

93
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,599
Speaker 2: it that was specific of like I knew because she

94
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 2: did this. There's more something that happened like in my

95
00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:47,280
Speaker 2: like brain chemistry or something where I was like, And

96
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 2: I also think that one thing that I will say

97
00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 2: is that any of the problems or issues that we've

98
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:56,719
Speaker 2: had to navigate or work through, it hasn't felt like

99
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:58,760
Speaker 2: a burden to go through the work.

100
00:05:58,560 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 3: Of navigating those things.

101
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 2: It's been like, I want to work on this as

102
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,279
Speaker 2: opposed to it being like I have to work on this.

103
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 2: It's been like, Okay, I want to be with you,

104
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 2: you want to be with me, and that's like that's

105
00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 2: what's happening. So how do we make it as like

106
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:16,200
Speaker 2: healthy as possible? And I've wanted to do that as

107
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,920
Speaker 2: opposed to feeling like it was a burden in our relationship. Yeah,

108
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,600
Speaker 2: which I feel like is if it's not the right person,

109
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 2: that going through things and working on things feels like

110
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,479
Speaker 2: a heavy burden, a heavy lift, I think for me,

111
00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:31,839
Speaker 2: I guess is what I'm saying.

112
00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:35,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's what I would say. How do you

113
00:06:35,279 --> 00:06:36,080
Speaker 5: what do you think it is?

114
00:06:36,279 --> 00:06:39,080
Speaker 6: I mean, I agree that it's a there's not like

115
00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:42,320
Speaker 6: a specific thing. But I think back to this. There's

116
00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 6: this quote from Kieramo do Toro that I really like

117
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 6: about art, and it's art. The definition of art is

118
00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,680
Speaker 6: what would you risk to be in its presence? And

119
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 6: I always think about like I just couldn't imagine life

120
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 6: with that, Like when I'm with Alison, I'm like, I

121
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 6: can't imagine doing anything without you, and I would risk

122
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:03,080
Speaker 6: everything just to be in your orbit. Yeah, And I've

123
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 6: never felt that way about anyone else. And that's the

124
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 6: fact that I popped into my head. It's like the sign,

125
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 6: you know.

126
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like I literally don't get sick of him. Like

127
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 1: I can literally have Robby next met twenty four to

128
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 1: seven and never get sick of him.

129
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:15,120
Speaker 3: Yeah.

130
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, Like he gets in my lap all day, I'd

131
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:19,560
Speaker 1: be totally fine.

132
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, lose feeling in your feet, but you're fine day

133
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 4: the way around.

134
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 1: Like I could sit on his lap all day long

135
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: and I'd be like, perfectly fine.

136
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:29,520
Speaker 4: I remember the revelation we had been together three years. Remember,

137
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:31,320
Speaker 4: my wife was very young when we started dating, so

138
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,000
Speaker 4: I wanted to have a long I wanted it a

139
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 4: long time because I didn't want her to feel like

140
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 4: she got married too young or didn't see anyone else,

141
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 4: or made a mistake. So after we began together three years,

142
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 4: I remember thinking, am I going to propose to this?

143
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 4: It's really is she the one? And I thought to myself, well,

144
00:07:46,240 --> 00:07:49,960
Speaker 4: what's the opposite? What's the alternates? The alternate is we

145
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,480
Speaker 4: break up and go and lead separate lives and never

146
00:07:52,520 --> 00:07:54,840
Speaker 4: talk to each other again. And that was laughable and

147
00:07:54,920 --> 00:07:58,640
Speaker 4: inconceivable to me. There is no way that is my future.

148
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 4: That Amy's just another person in the world that I

149
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,920
Speaker 4: think about every once in a while, but liv a

150
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 4: girl in life completely separate from me, There's no way

151
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:06,960
Speaker 4: that's the case. And that was it. I knew, Okay,

152
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 4: this is it, this is the one, and I'm going

153
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:09,040
Speaker 4: to propose.

154
00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:13,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that makes sense to me. And I resonate

155
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:17,240
Speaker 2: with that because I remember when think that when some

156
00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,800
Speaker 2: certain people found out about my relationship with Haley who

157
00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 2: were important to me, and they weren't super receptive or accepting,

158
00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,960
Speaker 2: I was like, so, what's the alter, Like I either

159
00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 2: do what they want or and I don't have Haley

160
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:29,240
Speaker 2: in my life. And I was like, I can't even

161
00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:32,280
Speaker 2: fathom that. And I was willing to have to go

162
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 2: through a hard time in another relationship with someone who

163
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 2: I love and care about so much to be with her.

164
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: And I think that was the moment where I was like, oh,

165
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,680
Speaker 2: this isn't like a fleeing or something I could just

166
00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:47,199
Speaker 2: like forget. And I remember I've said it a lot,

167
00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,439
Speaker 2: but I always was like I knew I would never

168
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 2: stop thinking about her if I wasn't with her. And

169
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,440
Speaker 2: I think that's kind of the thought, which is basically

170
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:56,360
Speaker 2: what you just said in different words, like the thought

171
00:08:56,400 --> 00:09:00,320
Speaker 2: of her amy, doing being with anyone else doing living

172
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,720
Speaker 2: life felt like there's no way I'm not a part

173
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 2: of that her life.

174
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: Yes, so that's it.

175
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:12,680
Speaker 4: That's how you know. Hope that helped a very confused

176
00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 4: and hurt scrubber sent us this one. Hi, Becka, Tanya Mark,

177
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 4: and Easton. I'm a longtime listener living in a small

178
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,079
Speaker 4: town in Manitoba, Canada. I bet that's nice up there.

179
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 4: I'd like to see Manitoba, Canada. I'm a thirty two

180
00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 4: year old single mom of two boys, both under the

181
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 4: age of ten. One is named Easton.

182
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 6: Yeah.

183
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 4: My ex husband and I separated in twenty twenty three

184
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,680
Speaker 4: and have reached the end of our separation and divorce process.

185
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 4: I started doing my boyfriend a little over a year ago.

186
00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:39,480
Speaker 4: We dd it for five months before introducing him to

187
00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,240
Speaker 4: my two boys, and it's been mostly smooth sailing. My

188
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,960
Speaker 4: boyfriend is thirty seven, has never ever wanted kids of

189
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:47,240
Speaker 4: his own, which I've known from the beginning. I don't

190
00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:50,520
Speaker 4: want more kids either. I may have assumed incorrectly, but

191
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 4: I assumed that even though he didn't want children of

192
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 4: his own, he wouldn't date someone with kids if he

193
00:09:54,960 --> 00:09:58,920
Speaker 4: was opposed to attending kids' events like soccer, taekwondo, et cetera,

194
00:09:59,360 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 4: and eventually years down the line, having more of a

195
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,160
Speaker 4: step parent like role. When I've asked him why he's

196
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,200
Speaker 4: so unwilling to attend these things, his response is usually,

197
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 4: this is exactly why I didn't want to have kids

198
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,160
Speaker 4: on my own, or why would I want to go

199
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,560
Speaker 4: to that. I tried to explain to him that my

200
00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 4: kids have asked why he can't attend these events, and

201
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,120
Speaker 4: I always have to lie and say he's working. He

202
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:21,080
Speaker 4: always makes it seem like I'm asking for the end

203
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 4: of the world, and I'm not sure that I am.

204
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 4: The boys want him there because they love him and

205
00:10:25,320 --> 00:10:26,960
Speaker 4: they want him to be there to support them. I

206
00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 4: feel so confused. I'm sure i'd handle the situation. I

207
00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,079
Speaker 4: love him deeply, which is why it's been so hard.

208
00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:34,560
Speaker 4: An the insider opinions would be greatly appreciated. A very

209
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:39,959
Speaker 4: confused and hurt scrubber. It's not great.

210
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:41,199
Speaker 3: It's not great.

211
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:45,080
Speaker 2: The thing that immediately popped up in my mind is

212
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:46,680
Speaker 2: I feel.

213
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:47,440
Speaker 1: Like when.

214
00:10:49,080 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 2: You're in a relationship, there's that like teammate and partnership

215
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 2: that comes along with it, and I really tell you,

216
00:10:57,600 --> 00:10:59,199
Speaker 2: you're the only person who can speak to this in

217
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 2: the room really in terms of like being the person

218
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,720
Speaker 2: coming into someone's life with kids.

219
00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: I think the thing is that he's not. So I

220
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: think every situation's different. I don't think every step parent

221
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,880
Speaker 1: or step parenting role looks the same. I think it's

222
00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: dependent on your partner and that what they want that

223
00:11:21,400 --> 00:11:25,280
Speaker 1: role to be. So in my case, Robbie did want that.

224
00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:28,559
Speaker 1: He really wanted me to be a very active part

225
00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: of the kids' lives, and I wanted the same thing.

226
00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:35,559
Speaker 1: We were really like the word sympatico in that, and

227
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:40,079
Speaker 1: so that's kind of where that's where we took the role,

228
00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:45,720
Speaker 1: my role with the kids. And it's hard because you're

229
00:11:45,800 --> 00:11:48,760
Speaker 1: the mom and you want your partner to be involved,

230
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,760
Speaker 1: but he really doesn't want to be involved. So I

231
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 1: feel like you guys have to maybe make some sort

232
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:56,160
Speaker 1: of compromise because I also think too, if he doesn't

233
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,840
Speaker 1: want that responsibility, he doesn't want kids, he doesn't want

234
00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,240
Speaker 1: he doesn't want that responsibility of even being a step parent,

235
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,160
Speaker 1: then maybe there's a compromise you can make. Maybe doesn't

236
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 1: come to every game, maybe he just comes to like

237
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 1: one here and there or you know, like does not

238
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,000
Speaker 1: have to be all in or all out. I feel

239
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:13,880
Speaker 1: like he's all out?

240
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 4: Is it? Is there an element of I don't want

241
00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 4: to be around your ex husband, I don't want to

242
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 4: be the new guy and everybody staring at me. Is

243
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 4: there something there? Like I have maybe hard to believe

244
00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,400
Speaker 4: he has no interest in watching your kids play soccer.

245
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,120
Speaker 1: Especially if he's building a relationship. Yeah, especially if he's

246
00:12:31,160 --> 00:12:32,560
Speaker 1: building a relationship with them.

247
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: I think he just I think he doesn't want kids

248
00:12:35,559 --> 00:12:38,000
Speaker 2: and he probably gets to have her fifty percent of

249
00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 2: the time by him, by herself, and he probably is

250
00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:44,440
Speaker 2: like I told you from the beginning, I didn't want kids,

251
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 2: And I think she's totally valid in being like, then

252
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:49,480
Speaker 2: why would you date me if you weren't going to

253
00:12:50,520 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 2: have any participat participation in my kids lives?

254
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,840
Speaker 1: He is having participation in their lives because she's saying

255
00:12:57,880 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 1: that they love him and they want him to come.

256
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: So he's clearly like hanging out with them at some point.

257
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 7: Yeah.

258
00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:05,880
Speaker 2: But if he I know, but if he cares and

259
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,480
Speaker 2: loves them and he and she's saying they want you

260
00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: to come to their events, wouldn't he go oh, like

261
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 2: in his mind, it's like, oh, yeah, that I didn't

262
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:17,680
Speaker 2: really I don't really want to go to a kid's

263
00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 2: soccer game, but like I love these kids and this

264
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 2: is what they want from me.

265
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,240
Speaker 5: Yea, how do I show up for them? I don't

266
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 5: think this guy's your person.

267
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's because I'm not like your guy.

268
00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 3: I get.

269
00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:31,600
Speaker 2: I understand his view on like if he doesn't want kids,

270
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:35,120
Speaker 2: but why would you date someone who's who's very much

271
00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 2: in that in that and has kids and not be.

272
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:40,200
Speaker 3: Able to show up for them?

273
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,120
Speaker 1: Because some people who are in that role like don't

274
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,560
Speaker 1: have to be like that. Like I don't really know

275
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:51,160
Speaker 1: any examples, but like I'm trying to think of like

276
00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:54,360
Speaker 1: a famous couple that just to give a good example.

277
00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,520
Speaker 2: While you're thinking, I'm saying, like if she's can mean

278
00:13:58,600 --> 00:14:00,880
Speaker 2: if if this was at the very beginning, like let's

279
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,520
Speaker 2: say last week was the first game, and he was like, yeah,

280
00:14:03,559 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 2: I'm not really into that. I don't want to go

281
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 2: to kids' sporting events, and then she's like, Okay, now

282
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,640
Speaker 2: I have to reassess what this is. But this is

283
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,439
Speaker 2: not the first time it's happened. He has like consistently

284
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 2: not been going and she's probably communicated like, Hey, the

285
00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 2: boys really want you to come. I'm having to lie

286
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:21,240
Speaker 2: and say that you're at work. And if he's still

287
00:14:21,280 --> 00:14:23,960
Speaker 2: not able to go, like, oh, like I should show up.

288
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,880
Speaker 2: I'm in these kids' lives like I should show up,

289
00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,160
Speaker 2: or they're when they're doing something that's important to them.

290
00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,840
Speaker 2: I don't think this is the type of guy that's

291
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 2: going to be a partner to you or a teammate

292
00:14:33,880 --> 00:14:34,160
Speaker 2: to you.

293
00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:36,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, if that's important.

294
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:40,680
Speaker 4: Again, it's just like, yeah, it's hard with these emails

295
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,440
Speaker 4: because you want to give everyone the benefit of the doubt,

296
00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:44,040
Speaker 4: and I'm trying real hard to give this guy the

297
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,760
Speaker 4: benefit of the doubt. But who doesn't want to go

298
00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:50,160
Speaker 4: see random kids off the streets are kids that you

299
00:14:50,280 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 4: know and watch them play soccer or dance or whatever

300
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,040
Speaker 4: it is. It seems to me like I'm going to

301
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,720
Speaker 4: see my friend's kids game. Yeah, our neighbors kids have

302
00:14:59,760 --> 00:15:02,040
Speaker 4: gone see Like it's just something to do when it's fun.

303
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know, it's like showing up for kids,

304
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:09,680
Speaker 7: like kids seeing people in your Like if people like

305
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,720
Speaker 7: my aunts and people came to my events when I

306
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 7: was in school, I remember being like, oh my gosh,

307
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 7: like my, oh.

308
00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 1: Want to go to yeah, sporting them?

309
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 4: Why wouldn't you?

310
00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: Yeah?

311
00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 2: So I I again, we only know what we've gotten

312
00:15:26,320 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 2: this email about. But I think that you deserve someone

313
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 2: who's going to be a to and I think maybe

314
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 2: if there's, if there hasn't been a sit down conversation

315
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,080
Speaker 2: about that it's important to you and that it's important

316
00:15:37,080 --> 00:15:40,080
Speaker 2: to the kids, then have that conversation. And if he's

317
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 2: not willing to compromise and be able to show up

318
00:15:42,360 --> 00:15:45,160
Speaker 2: for them and you, then I don't think this is

319
00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 2: your personal or.

320
00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 1: Maybe we understand the root of why he doesn't want

321
00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 1: to go to these events. Maybe we start with that what.

322
00:15:52,040 --> 00:15:53,600
Speaker 5: The root seem like?

323
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,480
Speaker 3: He's just like, yeah, I don't want kids.

324
00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:58,920
Speaker 4: But also there's gonna be stuff he wants you to

325
00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 4: go to that you don't want to go to. Right,

326
00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 4: I don't know what that is. Let's go watch with

327
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 4: the boys. I don't want to do this, but fine,

328
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 4: you know is what we do.

329
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,840
Speaker 2: Relationships, It's part of life. But that's the part of

330
00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 2: being like a team. And this guy doesn't feel like

331
00:16:13,280 --> 00:16:14,320
Speaker 2: a team with you.

332
00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: No, he's got an iron team and that's just the

333
00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: team have.

334
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:18,600
Speaker 3: An iron team.

335
00:16:18,640 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 4: You can't, Tanya, did you come up with a celebrity

336
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:23,720
Speaker 4: couple analogy for this particular situation?

337
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 1: So I was saying, I was thinking maybe like Jennifer

338
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: Lopez and Ben Affleck, but it didn't quite work. Oh,

339
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:36,880
Speaker 1: Jlo has kids, ben Affleck has kids. But I do

340
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: feel like even Jlo like showed up to ben afflecks

341
00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: kids stuff and vice versa. Probably so, No, I don't

342
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 1: know any step parents that do not attend any of

343
00:16:47,320 --> 00:16:53,040
Speaker 1: their children's step children's festivity effort. Yeah, thank you, A

344
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:58,240
Speaker 1: good idea. I tried, Dakota Johnson. I don't know those

345
00:16:58,320 --> 00:16:59,239
Speaker 1: kids are older.

346
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:00,000
Speaker 4: Than you for working on it.

347
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:04,639
Speaker 3: While you're thinking about it. We're going to take a break,

348
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:26,160
Speaker 3: all right. We are back with more burning questions.

349
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:29,760
Speaker 4: Different religions, Tanya, this question is mostly for you, it says,

350
00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:32,240
Speaker 4: I mean day one, Scrubber was so happy of you

351
00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:35,679
Speaker 4: when you met Robbie and finally became a wife. I

352
00:17:35,680 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 4: was in a two year relationship with a man I

353
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 4: love and care for so deeply. I am born and

354
00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:42,240
Speaker 4: raised devout Catholic and he was raised Hindu, though he's

355
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:46,240
Speaker 4: not necessarily religious. We recently broke up because we couldn't

356
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 4: come to a conclusion on how our wedding would look

357
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 4: combining traditions, etc. Can you share a bit more about

358
00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:54,120
Speaker 4: how you and Robbie had discussions around your different faith backgrounds.

359
00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 4: I'm heartbroken and really hopeful we can find a way

360
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:58,879
Speaker 4: to come back together. Lots of love, Anonymous.

361
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 1: They broke up because they couldn't figure out read that

362
00:18:03,320 --> 00:18:06,160
Speaker 1: line again, they couldn't figure out how to have a wedding.

363
00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:09,520
Speaker 4: That combines the traditions of Catholicism and Hinduism.

364
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:10,359
Speaker 1: And that broke them up.

365
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 4: Apparently, she says, we broke up because we couldn't come

366
00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:17,119
Speaker 4: to a conclusion. That makes me sad, But maybe I

367
00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 4: think it's a bigger picture thing, like, well, if we

368
00:18:19,240 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 4: can't even figure this out, how are we going to

369
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:22,840
Speaker 4: figure out how to raise kids together and all these

370
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:23,520
Speaker 4: other things? You know?

371
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:31,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that when it came to faith and

372
00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:35,480
Speaker 1: traditions and everything that comes in that realm of things,

373
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:40,880
Speaker 1: Robbie respected mine and I respected his, and we kind

374
00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:43,240
Speaker 1: of took like an all hands on deck approach. We

375
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:50,520
Speaker 1: celebrate all the things, we incorporate all the things. It

376
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:54,480
Speaker 1: really and we really wanted our wedding ceremony to be

377
00:18:54,760 --> 00:18:57,240
Speaker 1: non denominational. We didn't want it to be fully one

378
00:18:57,240 --> 00:19:01,480
Speaker 1: way or the other. And it was like the easiest

379
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 1: thing that we've done, Like we didn't have fights about it.

380
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,159
Speaker 1: It was literally just like what traditions, what do you

381
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: want to have? What do you want to have? And

382
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,480
Speaker 1: then we both said great love it, great love it

383
00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: did it? Like I feel like we just approached it

384
00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: from a place of just like love and understanding on

385
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: both sides. We never truly haven't thought about it.

386
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 4: And I wonder if so if they approached this from

387
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,480
Speaker 4: a different way where he would suggest something that she

388
00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,159
Speaker 4: say something like, oh, my grandparents are never going to that,

389
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:32,159
Speaker 4: and vice versa, he's like, oh, my family is not

390
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,320
Speaker 4: going to want that to happen. You know, maybe that's

391
00:19:34,359 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 4: there's too many cooks in the kitchen.

392
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,560
Speaker 2: Maybe I also think they're like, you are very committed

393
00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 2: to your faith, and so is Robbie.

394
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:43,200
Speaker 3: But I also think.

395
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:48,040
Speaker 2: That if you're devout to your religion and your family

396
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 2: is really intensely developed to their religion, and you're thinking

397
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:53,800
Speaker 2: about what is our family going to think, what's grandma

398
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:56,679
Speaker 2: going to think? Who's a devout Catholic? I think you

399
00:19:56,760 --> 00:19:59,160
Speaker 2: get in your head about that. But I think if

400
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,720
Speaker 2: you're like I think y'all have done such a beautiful

401
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 2: job at like honoring each other in your religions and

402
00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,800
Speaker 2: also being respectful and also being.

403
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 5: Willing to learn, I think you have to kind of.

404
00:20:09,760 --> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 2: Drown out the noise of what's everyone else gonna say

405
00:20:12,280 --> 00:20:15,080
Speaker 2: and think, Yeah, and if it's if that's what it is,

406
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:20,800
Speaker 2: if it's your own inner inner self, or you know,

407
00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:21,920
Speaker 2: whatever it is.

408
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,440
Speaker 1: You're so right about that. It's like, I do think

409
00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: that there's a lot of external noise that comes in

410
00:20:26,680 --> 00:20:29,280
Speaker 1: when especially when it comes to faith and traditions, and

411
00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,159
Speaker 1: you do have to just completely block that out and

412
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:33,199
Speaker 1: it has to be just the two of you and

413
00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:34,200
Speaker 1: like what you want to do.

414
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:37,440
Speaker 2: And also be able to like be sometimes you have

415
00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 2: it's it sucks to have to be the one to

416
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 2: be the example in your family of being like, this

417
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,239
Speaker 2: is what it looks like to respect and honor other

418
00:20:46,320 --> 00:20:49,200
Speaker 2: people's religions who don't believe the same way as you. Yeah,

419
00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 2: And it's hard because when you have a really strong

420
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:56,760
Speaker 2: dynamic with your family and you've agreed on everything thus far,

421
00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:58,879
Speaker 2: and they have expectations about who you're going to be

422
00:20:58,920 --> 00:21:01,359
Speaker 2: with that could be a challenge. It's not as easy

423
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:03,119
Speaker 2: as just like, oh, block it all out, Like I

424
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:04,960
Speaker 2: know that's a challenge, But I think if you know

425
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:06,720
Speaker 2: this is the person that you're supposed to be with,

426
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:10,720
Speaker 2: I think there's room for you to let yourself grow

427
00:21:10,840 --> 00:21:14,479
Speaker 2: and you know, focus on you and your relationship and

428
00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,200
Speaker 2: not the external noise.

429
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's really interesting because it's a question that I

430
00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: get asked a lot inner faith relationships and how we

431
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 1: make it work. And I'm like, it's so interesting because

432
00:21:24,560 --> 00:21:29,480
Speaker 1: it's literally just both of us honoring and respecting each

433
00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 1: other and creating our own traditions. It's never been truly,

434
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,359
Speaker 1: we've never had an argument over it.

435
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, And I mean I think if it gets to

436
00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,359
Speaker 2: a point where you're only arguing about that, then maybe

437
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 2: he's not your person. You know. Maybe if it's that

438
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:49,240
Speaker 2: important to where y'all can't move forward and you both

439
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 2: are stuck in that fight, you're just gonna grow resentful.

440
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:55,919
Speaker 3: And I don't think.

441
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 2: I think if you grew resentful about it, then you

442
00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,439
Speaker 2: wouldn't be a to have a healthy relationship ever. So

443
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 2: I think that you you know, have to figure out

444
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,480
Speaker 2: where where the hesitation is coming from. Is it from you,

445
00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:11,520
Speaker 2: Is it from your boyfriend or is it from your

446
00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:12,560
Speaker 2: family and other people?

447
00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 1: Yeah?

448
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,879
Speaker 3: Huge, you the best.

449
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:17,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it can work.

450
00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

451
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:23,120
Speaker 1: Inner faith marriages are blessing. I think the more the merrier. Yeah,

452
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 1: celebrate so many holidays in our house.

453
00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:26,200
Speaker 3: They all are always celebrating.

454
00:22:26,240 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just like constant celebration.

621
00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 2: but before he cheated on Christina, so he was like

622
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 2: a leader in the O R and everyone was coming

623
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:24,160
Speaker 2: to him to learn. But this was before he cheated

624
00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,360
Speaker 2: on Christina, before we became, before we hated him. Yeah,

625
00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:33,040
Speaker 2: so I had to, I wrote before the first season, first.

626
00:30:32,760 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 4: Season, Owen, Okay, all right, just.

627
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:36,680
