Speaker 1: got one? I do you ready? Yes?

5
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 2: Take it away, Thank you, dear blog. So I've been

6
00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:15,720
Speaker 2: saying for a while now, I don't understand how adults

7
00:00:15,760 --> 00:00:19,680
Speaker 2: make friends, because literally everyone that is a friend of mine,

8
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,200
Speaker 2: like my closest friends, either work here currently or have

9
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,120
Speaker 2: worked with me in the past. Like I don't have

10
00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 2: friends that like live by me, or neighborhood friends or

11
00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:31,800
Speaker 2: anything like that. All Over the weekend, we went up

12
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 2: to the lake to Mike's parents' lake house, and I

13
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 2: started talking to the daughter of the neighbor. We're about

14
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,040
Speaker 2: the same age, and she was like telling me she

15
00:00:42,200 --> 00:00:44,760
Speaker 2: just like had some hard times with her boyfriend and

16
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 2: to move back, and her parents just like a lot

17
00:00:46,640 --> 00:00:48,640
Speaker 2: of like rough things happening to her. So like I

18
00:00:48,680 --> 00:00:50,760
Speaker 2: obviously like am listening. I'm trying to be an active

19
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,240
Speaker 2: listener and like whatever. So then we exchange numbers and

20
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:56,080
Speaker 2: then we've been texting and I'm like, wait, do I

21
00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 2: have a friend now? Like I have an adult friend.

22
00:00:58,120 --> 00:00:59,800
Speaker 1: Do you have a friend or just someone that you're

23
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: are you a car because like, yeah, right, but you're miserating.

24
00:01:06,160 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 2: I have a lot of friends that I just like

25
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 2: trauma dump on. So is that a friendship?

26
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:09,880
Speaker 1: I don't know.

27
00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:12,200
Speaker 2: Am I friends with her? Are you friends with her?

28
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 2: Am I friends?

29
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 1: I think you're doing a nice thing by listening. Yeah,

30
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,480
Speaker 1: but is that the only Yeah? Right, well that was

31
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,520
Speaker 1: my That was my question was is that the only

32
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: sort of nature of the conversation?

33
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 2: It was like that, and then yeah, and then she

34
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:26,840
Speaker 2: like she was it was her and then her she

35
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:29,240
Speaker 2: was like her talking and me listening and being like, oh,

36
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: you don't need him, like you know, you deserve to

37
00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 2: have a night out with the girl. So she was

38
00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 2: going like a girl's night out. I was like, yes,

39
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:38,679
Speaker 2: go says and then she left. I'm like, are we

40
00:01:38,760 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 2: friends now?

41
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: I mean, so hopefully she does something for you in

42
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: the near future and then you're a little more getting

43
00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: to tell me.

44
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 2: How my relationships normally go. So we'll see how it goes.

45
00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you're doing a nice thing. You're obviously helping her,

46
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: you know, by listening, So that's nice. Whether as a friendship,

47
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: I don't know, but I will say it is very

48
00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 1: difficult to make friends as a grown up, especially as

49
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 1: a single grown up. And I know you're not single,

50
00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: but like I mean, like I don't get invited to

51
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: the couple stuff. Other single people tip, we don't get

52
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: invited to the couple stuff either, so if you do,

53
00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 1: it's like weird. It's a weird sort of like everyone

54
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 1: knows why those two were here, yep kind of thing.

55
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: And then I don't know, it's hard to make friends

56
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: as it grown up, it really is.

57
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,080
Speaker 2: And also like people my own age because Mike is

58
00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:21,120
Speaker 2: fourteen years older than me, so like all his friends

59
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: that we hang out with, like there's a generational difference there,

60
00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,919
Speaker 2: you know. Like so to have someone that like doesn't

61
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,600
Speaker 2: work here that is my own age, Like maybe we're

62
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:34,680
Speaker 2: friends though, yeah, I don't know.

63
00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: Close to the cabin two is fun.

64
00:02:36,360 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 2: Yes, I have like someone up there till I hang

65
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,080
Speaker 2: out with.

66
00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, well you know, tooken bitch to you and so yeah,

67
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 1: what's in this for you? I'm wondering, let's put it

68
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 1: to work? Yeah, well yeah, so maybe you made a

69
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 1: new friend. Yeah I don't know, And I'll tell you.

70
00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 1: I'll tell you. Here's how you know, is if if

71
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,000
Speaker 1: she resolves that problem one way or the other, and

72
00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:02,640
Speaker 1: then you guys still talk and about other things. And

73
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: if she's an equal listener, then you have a friend.

74
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,400
Speaker 1: If you stop hearing from her once she works out

75
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,680
Speaker 1: her problem, then you know that it was not a

76
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 1: real It was not it was you were simply a conduit.

77
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 2: By Okay, Well, time will tell, we'll see.

78
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: Because how many people do you know? And I'm guilty.

79
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: I know I've done this before to people, but I

80
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,360
Speaker 1: know it's been done to me. Where you don't hear

81
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: from somebody for a long time they're going through something hard.

82
00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:26,800
Speaker 1: Then you hear from them, and you hear from them

83
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: during the hard part, and then when they either resolve

84
00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 1: it or they you know, move on from it, then

85
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 1: you go back to not hearing from them as much anymore.

86
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,200
Speaker 1: And then you realize, like they'll listen. Maybe this is

87
00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 1: a friendship, but maybe there's like the basis of a

88
00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 1: friendship here, Like maybe you're a decent person, but it

89
00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,000
Speaker 1: sounds like you were just sort of using me to

90
00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 1: commiserate with you. Yeah you know what I mean. Oh yeah,

91
00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,160
Speaker 1: I have friends like that, but they're still like I

92
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,800
Speaker 1: still consider them friends, you know. Yeah, I kind of

93
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 1: attract mental issues. We look where you are surrounded. That's

94
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 1: like a zoologist sitting. I attract to animates, Like, what

95
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 1: the means? What did you think was gonna happen when

96
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,280
Speaker 1: you God, you look at the fread show more, fread
