WEBVTT - Sucking After Dark

0:00:01.440 --> 0:00:04.960
<v Speaker 1>I Suck at Dating with Denungler and Jared Haven and

0:00:05.080 --> 0:00:11.280
<v Speaker 1>I heard Radio Podcast. Welcome to this week's episode of

0:00:11.400 --> 0:00:13.880
<v Speaker 1>Help I Suck at Dating. And for the listeners out

0:00:13.920 --> 0:00:17.439
<v Speaker 1>there that loved our episode with Tasha and Brooks, we

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:20.400
<v Speaker 1>brought them back because they were so fantastic. But not

0:00:20.440 --> 0:00:22.880
<v Speaker 1>only are they back this time, well, I can't speak

0:00:22.920 --> 0:00:25.439
<v Speaker 1>for Brooks here, but Tasia has had a couple of

0:00:25.440 --> 0:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>glasses of wine. Okay, I mean I've had a couple

0:00:28.680 --> 0:00:32.320
<v Speaker 1>of glasses of one. Myself, we have a lots is drunk.

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:36.400
<v Speaker 1>I haven't had any glasses of wine. I'm basically here

0:00:36.440 --> 0:00:39.240
<v Speaker 1>to keep this episode on the rails. Yeah, Brooks keeps

0:00:39.280 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 1>us rounded, you know. But unless we wanted to spice

0:00:42.080 --> 0:00:43.839
<v Speaker 1>up the show a back right, I never would have

0:00:43.920 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 1>used the words that Amy just used. But here we are.

0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 1>Apparently we're drunk. So for this week's episode, we've got Tassia,

0:00:49.960 --> 0:00:52.720
<v Speaker 1>We've got Brooks and myself Tory of course, as always

0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 1>reading the questions for us. We're gonna start off with

0:00:55.560 --> 0:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>some as we kind of had a couple of weeks

0:00:57.680 --> 0:01:00.760
<v Speaker 1>ago with the just listener questions about what's going on

0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:02.720
<v Speaker 1>with dating? And I feel like now that tastes a

0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:05.559
<v Speaker 1>little bit looser, a little bit more fluid, a little

0:01:05.560 --> 0:01:07.880
<v Speaker 1>bit more willing to just go for the gold. She

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:12.479
<v Speaker 1>might give us a better advice. Yes, of course. Okay,

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:16.839
<v Speaker 1>and Brooks to the stage. The y stage of all

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>is Brooks, and he's going to be here to help

0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:20.520
<v Speaker 1>answer some of these questions as well. We're gonna start

0:01:20.520 --> 0:01:23.600
<v Speaker 1>off with some, um, some listener questions and we're gonna

0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:27.240
<v Speaker 1>move into a little bit more Uh how can I

0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:35.119
<v Speaker 1>say this, Uh, provocative, raunchier questions. I don't nothing bad.

0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:37.000
<v Speaker 1>We don't have to drop him personal experience, but just

0:01:37.080 --> 0:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>like things that our listeners have asked that are a

0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:42.080
<v Speaker 1>little bit more X rated, if you will, I feel

0:01:42.120 --> 0:01:44.120
<v Speaker 1>like my voice is a little deeper at night. I'm

0:01:44.120 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 1>going to say listening to these sounds pretty good. So actually,

0:01:48.240 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 1>while our friends not too long ago, we're recording a

0:01:51.040 --> 0:01:54.720
<v Speaker 1>couple of their podcasts. They host Playing Around on I

0:01:54.800 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>Heart Radio. They also host How Men Think. Brooks is

0:01:57.640 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 1>one of the co hosts on that one, and uh,

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:02.040
<v Speaker 1>they were recording those. We were asking each other questions

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 1>in the opposite room through this card game. It was fun.

0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.360
<v Speaker 1>It was a little deeper than I expected. It to be,

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 1>but some of the questions they were interesting. So we're

0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna kind of play the same card game. Actually, in

0:02:13.200 --> 0:02:15.200
<v Speaker 1>all honesty, like I wish there was a microphone in

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:17.840
<v Speaker 1>that room because some of the things Tastia said, Man,

0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:23.000
<v Speaker 1>it was weird. There's a lot to me that you

0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:29.640
<v Speaker 1>all don't know. It's called table topics original And like

0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I said, some of these questions, man, they're weird and

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 1>they're they're like, it doesn't help you get to know

0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:35.919
<v Speaker 1>anyone better. Some of them are like, what's your favorite

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:38.359
<v Speaker 1>virgin DAKRII from your favorite bar in town? It's like, well,

0:02:38.400 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>who cares? But we I got a couple picked out

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 1>that I kind of enjoy and I think, actually this

0:02:42.280 --> 0:02:44.119
<v Speaker 1>first one that I have for Tassia and Brooks, because

0:02:44.120 --> 0:02:46.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't really know Brooks that well. But you're answering

0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:48.800
<v Speaker 1>them too, by the way, you're a no, no, no,

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:52.519
<v Speaker 1>of course, absolutely, but uh, Tasia, this one is directed

0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:54.840
<v Speaker 1>at you. But I'm actually more interested in in Brooks's

0:02:54.840 --> 0:02:57.679
<v Speaker 1>response because I just don't know him as well. The

0:02:58.000 --> 0:03:00.919
<v Speaker 1>question is what do you most admire about your parents?

0:03:04.280 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 1>I think perseverance. I think my parents they've met each

0:03:08.760 --> 0:03:12.080
<v Speaker 1>other in high school, and they have gone through a

0:03:12.160 --> 0:03:16.120
<v Speaker 1>lot of hard times, but they're still together. And I

0:03:16.160 --> 0:03:18.600
<v Speaker 1>can't say that about a lot of other relationships that

0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>I've witnessed. Um, and I know that their struggles, so

0:03:24.280 --> 0:03:27.320
<v Speaker 1>the fact that they're still together, it's it's a huge accomplishment.

0:03:27.400 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I would echo that for mine. My parents

0:03:31.240 --> 0:03:35.240
<v Speaker 1>have celebrated their forty wedding anniversary this summer, and I

0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 1>think that's just so cool when I look at mom

0:03:37.040 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 1>and dad, like, I just think of them as a unit,

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:43.560
<v Speaker 1>their mom and dad, and um, that's as a as

0:03:43.560 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 1>a child, that's so cool that whenever I see them,

0:03:45.960 --> 0:03:47.560
<v Speaker 1>I get to see both of them, whereas a lot

0:03:47.560 --> 0:03:49.640
<v Speaker 1>of people will only get to see their father or

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:53.520
<v Speaker 1>their mother their parents are divorced. Uh, that would be

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.840
<v Speaker 1>probably the thing. And then also, um, I had one

0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:02.800
<v Speaker 1>other thought, what was it? Um? Oh, something I heard

0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:06.360
<v Speaker 1>a long time ago that really resonated with me about

0:04:06.400 --> 0:04:11.440
<v Speaker 1>relationships is you have people that have complementary skills with

0:04:11.520 --> 0:04:17.320
<v Speaker 1>similar values. Is how long term relationships last. And you

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:21.040
<v Speaker 1>can have different things, but complementary skills with similar values.

0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.560
<v Speaker 1>So my mom is really good at this, my dad

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:25.839
<v Speaker 1>is really good at this, but they have the value

0:04:26.200 --> 0:04:29.600
<v Speaker 1>of family and love and home life and stuff. So

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:32.440
<v Speaker 1>I agree with that my mom is much My mom

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 1>was supposed to be a nun. Yeah, my mom went

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.520
<v Speaker 1>to high school with nuns as teachers, and she wanted

0:04:39.520 --> 0:04:41.600
<v Speaker 1>to be a nun. And then she came to the

0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:44.400
<v Speaker 1>States and she met my dad, and my dad corrupted

0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 1>her in a good way. But no, my parents have

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 1>been together for thirty two years. So yeah, I often wonder.

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Actually we talked about this a little bit on the

0:04:56.440 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 1>podcast before if why my like cynicism towards mayor Ridge

0:05:00.320 --> 0:05:02.440
<v Speaker 1>comes from the fact that, like I look at you too,

0:05:02.560 --> 0:05:04.120
<v Speaker 1>right Brooks, I don't know that your parents are still

0:05:04.120 --> 0:05:06.840
<v Speaker 1>married happily to this day, and Tasia, obviously your your

0:05:06.880 --> 0:05:09.159
<v Speaker 1>parents are still going strong too. It's like, I wonder

0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:13.480
<v Speaker 1>if that instills it must like instills values and both

0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 1>of you to like want to uh like that moving

0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:19.159
<v Speaker 1>forward in your own relationship. Yeah, for me, it does,

0:05:19.240 --> 0:05:22.360
<v Speaker 1>for sure. It's it instills hope. It gives you you

0:05:22.480 --> 0:05:27.560
<v Speaker 1>literally see in front of your eyes a marriage and

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>to a partnership and people committing to each other, like

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:34.159
<v Speaker 1>it has to affect you, uh. And I can't speak

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 1>on the other side on divorce. But because I haven't

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:39.320
<v Speaker 1>had parents obviously that have been divorced. But that has

0:05:39.360 --> 0:05:41.320
<v Speaker 1>to have an effect on your psyche and your approach

0:05:41.360 --> 0:05:45.400
<v Speaker 1>to a relationship, even at a like a minor subconscious

0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 1>level or something. Um, there has to be something that's

0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 1>that's affects kids, depending on your age when that happens,

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:55.440
<v Speaker 1>especially if it's a kid at a developmental age ten, twelve,

0:05:55.480 --> 0:05:58.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean fourteen, I mean every age is development Let

0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:00.560
<v Speaker 1>me ask you this hypothetical or not. Let's say you

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:03.600
<v Speaker 1>meet a partner that has maybe experienced trauma in some

0:06:03.640 --> 0:06:05.919
<v Speaker 1>sort in their life. Uh, and they don't have necessarily

0:06:05.920 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>the same familial background that you've experienced yourself. Is that

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:11.200
<v Speaker 1>a red flag for you? Or is that the thing

0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:13.600
<v Speaker 1>that you're able to like consider and work through. Yeah,

0:06:13.680 --> 0:06:16.720
<v Speaker 1>my wife's parents were divorced, so yeah, do you know

0:06:16.720 --> 0:06:19.479
<v Speaker 1>if it was a mess you'vorce. I know the details

0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:21.200
<v Speaker 1>of it, but I'm not going to divulge that. Yeah,

0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:25.159
<v Speaker 1>it's very fair. Well me, I can tell you that

0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:30.240
<v Speaker 1>my parents are happily married and I'm divorced, so I

0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:32.800
<v Speaker 1>think that. Yeah, I felt a lot of pressure to

0:06:32.839 --> 0:06:35.240
<v Speaker 1>make sure that my marriage worked. But also at the

0:06:35.279 --> 0:06:41.160
<v Speaker 1>same time, Um, I made sure to do everything I

0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:43.240
<v Speaker 1>needed to do in order to know that I did

0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:45.760
<v Speaker 1>everything I could at the end of the day. So

0:06:46.000 --> 0:06:50.360
<v Speaker 1>um yeah, it definitely was scary to tell my parents, like, yeah,

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:52.640
<v Speaker 1>it's just not working out. And do you know, I

0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:54.360
<v Speaker 1>think I was telling you this a little bit earlier.

0:06:55.480 --> 0:06:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Before my divorce, I really wasn't open with my parents

0:06:58.560 --> 0:07:00.280
<v Speaker 1>about like every single thing that was going on in

0:07:00.320 --> 0:07:04.679
<v Speaker 1>my relationships slash me in general. But because of my divorce,

0:07:04.800 --> 0:07:07.240
<v Speaker 1>I opened up a lot more, and like they are

0:07:07.279 --> 0:07:11.680
<v Speaker 1>now my closest friends in a way, because there's still

0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 1>my parents and I really respect them. But um yeah,

0:07:15.360 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 1>I think the fact that they are still married does

0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:21.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of put like a pressure on you in a

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:24.000
<v Speaker 1>way because you want to make sure that that's the

0:07:24.040 --> 0:07:25.880
<v Speaker 1>same for you right well. And part of the reasons

0:07:25.920 --> 0:07:29.640
<v Speaker 1>that I even bring up the question is because, like

0:07:29.680 --> 0:07:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I said, from someone from like me who, uh, my

0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:34.120
<v Speaker 1>family kind of broke up when I was team my

0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 1>mom passed away, uh, and my parents have really liked

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:38.320
<v Speaker 1>each other when I was a kid anyway, So it

0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:40.200
<v Speaker 1>was like growing up in a family that I didn't

0:07:40.200 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 1>really want to be together, but that was together because

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:44.720
<v Speaker 1>they felt like they had an obligation to be which

0:07:44.720 --> 0:07:46.640
<v Speaker 1>I admire that sense where it's like, yeah, we have

0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:48.680
<v Speaker 1>an obligation to our child to raise him up in

0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:51.000
<v Speaker 1>a family other than separate, right, Like that's that's an

0:07:51.000 --> 0:07:55.080
<v Speaker 1>admirable thing. Um. And then seeing a lot of my friends,

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:57.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, maybe it's the water in Colorado, but

0:07:57.760 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people in Colorado seemed to get divorced,

0:08:02.760 --> 0:08:04.800
<v Speaker 1>and a lot of my friends like they've gone, like

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:07.120
<v Speaker 1>they've had like split times between their parents, They've had

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.840
<v Speaker 1>to decide between where do they have to spend Christmas,

0:08:09.880 --> 0:08:12.800
<v Speaker 1>and like their their husbands are trying to like uh,

0:08:13.360 --> 0:08:14.840
<v Speaker 1>extract as much as they can from the wives and

0:08:14.920 --> 0:08:17.200
<v Speaker 1>vice versa, like all these things. And so I think

0:08:17.200 --> 0:08:21.400
<v Speaker 1>that for whatever reason, I'm like a magnet to like

0:08:21.480 --> 0:08:25.400
<v Speaker 1>these bad aspects and attributes of marriages. And I think

0:08:25.440 --> 0:08:28.040
<v Speaker 1>that's part of the reason why I'm so for whatever reason,

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.160
<v Speaker 1>anti like marriage as an institution, you know what I mean.

0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't really don't think you're anti marriage. Why do

0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.440
<v Speaker 1>you say that? Because they think deep down you really

0:08:37.440 --> 0:08:40.160
<v Speaker 1>want it, And I think deep down you would love

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:45.880
<v Speaker 1>to have a family and a stable relationship, but you're

0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:51.559
<v Speaker 1>scared and I don't want to get to But I'm

0:08:51.600 --> 0:08:54.480
<v Speaker 1>just saying, like I know that there are experiences that

0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:58.840
<v Speaker 1>can like kind of hinder those things. But I really

0:08:58.840 --> 0:09:01.120
<v Speaker 1>think deep down, like you a family, and you want

0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:03.800
<v Speaker 1>something solid, you want a foundation, you want something to

0:09:03.840 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 1>build on. My big experience about having a lot of

0:09:05.880 --> 0:09:08.200
<v Speaker 1>stuff is it's like, let's say established a family, right,

0:09:08.240 --> 0:09:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Let's say I've got a wonderful wife, I've got three

0:09:10.200 --> 0:09:12.199
<v Speaker 1>great kids. One day I wake up and I'm like,

0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't want this anymore when I travel, So what

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:23.040
<v Speaker 1>do you do from there? Dean? That means you make

0:09:23.080 --> 0:09:25.360
<v Speaker 1>a conscious decision to like, you know what you tell

0:09:25.400 --> 0:09:27.560
<v Speaker 1>your wife, Hey, I need to break for a second.

0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:29.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to go travel to you seventy for three days.

0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:31.760
<v Speaker 1>I just need a little bit of time for myself.

0:09:31.960 --> 0:09:33.640
<v Speaker 1>It has nothing to do with you. It has everything

0:09:33.679 --> 0:09:35.640
<v Speaker 1>to do with me. But like I love you, and like,

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:38.120
<v Speaker 1>let me just go do my thing. And she will

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:40.559
<v Speaker 1>support that if you are honest and open, you talk

0:09:40.600 --> 0:09:44.319
<v Speaker 1>about it, and you do you and you come back

0:09:44.480 --> 0:09:47.200
<v Speaker 1>and you're just like cool. But the fact that like,

0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:49.280
<v Speaker 1>if you need that outlet, then that should be a

0:09:49.280 --> 0:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>thing that's established in your marriage. Marriage is like it's

0:09:52.640 --> 0:09:55.559
<v Speaker 1>a swing dance. It's like a thing. It's you compromise.

0:09:56.040 --> 0:09:59.040
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't need to be this picture that everyone thinks

0:09:59.080 --> 0:10:01.000
<v Speaker 1>it needs to be, like an to be perfect. Everything

0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.959
<v Speaker 1>every day is like this, that, this that, like hell no,

0:10:04.400 --> 0:10:08.719
<v Speaker 1>excuse my language, it's the one, but um no, it's

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 1>a compromise. Like, you need to figure out what works

0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:13.160
<v Speaker 1>for you. You You need to figure out what works for

0:10:13.200 --> 0:10:14.760
<v Speaker 1>your wife. Like what if your wife likes to do

0:10:14.880 --> 0:10:17.559
<v Speaker 1>like girls day every two weeks? You know what I mean? Like,

0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:19.839
<v Speaker 1>you need to figure out what works best for you. Guys,

0:10:20.760 --> 0:10:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I will say the relationships that I see, uh now

0:10:24.280 --> 0:10:25.960
<v Speaker 1>that I am an adult, it's weird to say that,

0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.680
<v Speaker 1>but I am an adult right twenty years old. The

0:10:28.720 --> 0:10:30.559
<v Speaker 1>relationships that I see among my peers, you know, the

0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:34.040
<v Speaker 1>friends that I've made throughout life that seeing the most successful,

0:10:34.040 --> 0:10:36.080
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion, are the ones that allow themselves to

0:10:36.080 --> 0:10:37.880
<v Speaker 1>have space from each other, the ones that allow themselves

0:10:37.920 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 1>to have friendships with other people. And like, I'm going

0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:43.160
<v Speaker 1>to go have a girl's weekend over here. Okay, well

0:10:43.160 --> 0:10:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna go to the guy's house for the football game. Um,

0:10:46.880 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 1>and that's something that I don't think we give enough

0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:50.840
<v Speaker 1>credit to and something that you don't really see. I

0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:53.720
<v Speaker 1>think even in our our our parental relationships, where it's like,

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:55.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, you've kind of gotten to this point where

0:10:55.840 --> 0:10:57.320
<v Speaker 1>you just see your your mom and your dad as

0:10:57.320 --> 0:10:59.319
<v Speaker 1>a cohesive unit, but you don't necessarily see the work

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.080
<v Speaker 1>that they put it on on the back end of it,

0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:02.640
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. I think that's one thing

0:11:02.679 --> 0:11:05.240
<v Speaker 1>that I've realized from my divorce. Actually, if there's one

0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:06.920
<v Speaker 1>thing I've grown from is the fact that, like I

0:11:07.080 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 1>know that each person needs their own time. I think

0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:13.319
<v Speaker 1>at a young age, you always want to be around

0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:15.800
<v Speaker 1>your significant other, you know what I mean. And I

0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:19.520
<v Speaker 1>feel like that's one thing that I learned. You know, Yeah,

0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:23.240
<v Speaker 1>you guys are crushing it. Um, You're still an individual, Like,

0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.440
<v Speaker 1>you're still your own person. You're going to grow and

0:11:25.559 --> 0:11:27.600
<v Speaker 1>challenge and change in your own way, So you need

0:11:27.640 --> 0:11:30.760
<v Speaker 1>your space to do that, um, and a partner should

0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:33.040
<v Speaker 1>support that, they should want that for you. And I

0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:36.040
<v Speaker 1>think it's I also think that one person can't give

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:40.520
<v Speaker 1>you everything in the world, right, Like you have to

0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:43.240
<v Speaker 1>have different friendships, you have to have different energies, you

0:11:43.320 --> 0:11:45.839
<v Speaker 1>have to be around different people. One person is not

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.680
<v Speaker 1>going to be your be all everything, your love or

0:11:48.679 --> 0:11:51.080
<v Speaker 1>your confidence you're housing to your best friend. You're like,

0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:54.040
<v Speaker 1>they're not going to be everything. You still need other

0:11:54.200 --> 0:11:56.720
<v Speaker 1>parts of the world. Doesn't mean they aren't your world,

0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.720
<v Speaker 1>but you still need other parts of the world. I

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:01.920
<v Speaker 1>love that. I agree, and I think, like you said,

0:12:01.920 --> 0:12:03.280
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't take just one person to give you that.

0:12:03.440 --> 0:12:05.000
<v Speaker 1>All right, one more question before we move on to

0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:06.680
<v Speaker 1>the next segment, which is going to get a little

0:12:06.679 --> 0:12:10.360
<v Speaker 1>bit more spicy. Yeah, we're gonna get spicy. But before

0:12:10.400 --> 0:12:13.960
<v Speaker 1>we do that, Uh, which is more important to you

0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:18.600
<v Speaker 1>guys separately? Intelligence or common sense? So book smarts or

0:12:18.720 --> 0:12:24.680
<v Speaker 1>street smarts, street smarts street smarts. I'm gonna say street

0:12:24.760 --> 0:12:29.320
<v Speaker 1>smarts too, I think, but I hate being unanimous on

0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.160
<v Speaker 1>that one. So why do you say street smarts both

0:12:31.160 --> 0:12:33.800
<v Speaker 1>of you, guys? I mean it's I think it's I

0:12:33.840 --> 0:12:37.640
<v Speaker 1>think it's just life intelligence. So intelligence, you could know

0:12:37.679 --> 0:12:39.839
<v Speaker 1>a lot about one subject, you can know a lot

0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 1>about like computers or whatever. But can you be a

0:12:43.920 --> 0:12:47.160
<v Speaker 1>good person? Are you kind to people? Can you be compassionate?

0:12:47.240 --> 0:12:50.199
<v Speaker 1>Do you have any sort of life skills that are

0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.880
<v Speaker 1>greater than this sort of like niche thing that you

0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 1>are involved in. So I appreciate, man, I appreciate intelligence.

0:12:57.880 --> 0:13:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I have a huge appreciation for it. But um, if

0:13:01.440 --> 0:13:04.120
<v Speaker 1>people had street smarts and life skills, I think the

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:09.360
<v Speaker 1>world would be a better place. I completely agree with that.

0:13:09.840 --> 0:13:12.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not marrying you because I don't know you have

0:13:12.520 --> 0:13:15.440
<v Speaker 1>a degree. I'm marrying you because I don't know you

0:13:15.440 --> 0:13:17.840
<v Speaker 1>know how to navigate through life. I will say one

0:13:17.840 --> 0:13:21.360
<v Speaker 1>of my favorite things about Kalin is she is very

0:13:21.360 --> 0:13:25.360
<v Speaker 1>book smart. But when she suspects that she might be

0:13:25.400 --> 0:13:30.199
<v Speaker 1>wrong about something, her ability to grasp her her uh

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.280
<v Speaker 1>misinformation and then change her mind and like and figure

0:13:33.320 --> 0:13:35.640
<v Speaker 1>something out really quickly, it's so impressive to me. And

0:13:35.640 --> 0:13:37.439
<v Speaker 1>that's not that isn't that's not book smarts, right, that's

0:13:37.440 --> 0:13:40.920
<v Speaker 1>like that street sense in my opinion. Uh And I

0:13:40.920 --> 0:13:42.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't realize that until I just said that right now.

0:13:42.520 --> 0:13:44.000
<v Speaker 1>But like, that's something I really admire about her, as

0:13:44.040 --> 0:13:45.960
<v Speaker 1>her ability to kind of like figure something out on

0:13:46.000 --> 0:13:47.800
<v Speaker 1>the on the on a whim like that. So I

0:13:47.800 --> 0:13:49.160
<v Speaker 1>agree with you, guys, And I hate the fact that

0:13:49.200 --> 0:13:54.359
<v Speaker 1>we all unitally agree that street smarts is more admirable,

0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 1>but I guess that's just how it is. All right,

0:13:56.920 --> 0:13:59.120
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna take a quick break. But before we do that,

0:13:59.600 --> 0:14:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to do anything. I don't know why

0:14:01.000 --> 0:14:02.320
<v Speaker 1>I said that. We're going to take a quick break.

0:14:02.320 --> 0:14:04.160
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna come back, but we're gonna have a little

0:14:04.200 --> 0:14:06.520
<v Speaker 1>bit of wine, That's why you said it. And we're

0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna have some tories, gonna ask some raunchy questions for us.

0:14:09.800 --> 0:14:12.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm excited for this because you know what I'm can

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>we not say raunchy? I'm and even saying the word

0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:18.400
<v Speaker 1>raunchy is Yeah, it's like a lot of challenge. I

0:14:18.400 --> 0:14:20.280
<v Speaker 1>feel like we're about to do like a burlesque show.

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:22.160
<v Speaker 1>And the funny thing is, it's like the three of

0:14:22.240 --> 0:14:24.160
<v Speaker 1>us like as as good a friends as we've become

0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:27.760
<v Speaker 1>to be. Like, we don't know the sexual history at all,

0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.040
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not saying we're going to dive into sexual history,

0:14:33.040 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 1>but like maybe we are. So stay tuned and see

0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 1>what happens next. All right, and we are back here

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:49.400
<v Speaker 1>with Brooks like and Tasia Adams, uh, and we're gonna

0:14:49.400 --> 0:14:52.400
<v Speaker 1>answer some questions that Tori has prepared for us. It's

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:55.440
<v Speaker 1>gonna get a little weird. Uh, We're gonna get a

0:14:55.480 --> 0:14:59.360
<v Speaker 1>little bit to take everyone as uncomfortable as no. But

0:14:59.440 --> 0:15:02.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to s us off easy. Alright, ready, Okay,

0:15:02.360 --> 0:15:04.560
<v Speaker 1>my boyfriend won't put me on any of his social

0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 1>media postings. Does this mean we are not a real couple? Interesting?

0:15:08.960 --> 0:15:11.200
<v Speaker 1>Right off the battle. I'm going to tackle this one first,

0:15:11.240 --> 0:15:13.160
<v Speaker 1>just because I feel like it's the most applicable for me.

0:15:13.280 --> 0:15:16.800
<v Speaker 1>I think the guy's input is coming first. Yes, it's

0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.480
<v Speaker 1>it's I'm going to bring myself back three years because

0:15:19.480 --> 0:15:20.880
<v Speaker 1>that's really the only reason. That's the only way I

0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:24.320
<v Speaker 1>can answer this question right, because it's like, I don't

0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:27.520
<v Speaker 1>care anymore. I have a girlfriend whatever. Uh And coming

0:15:27.520 --> 0:15:30.000
<v Speaker 1>off a television show, when you have a girlfriend, you're

0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:32.800
<v Speaker 1>like fully invest in that relationship. But three years ago, Dean,

0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:35.000
<v Speaker 1>before he ever had ever went on television to anyone,

0:15:35.720 --> 0:15:38.080
<v Speaker 1>he was doing his best to conceal every relationship he

0:15:38.120 --> 0:15:41.600
<v Speaker 1>had until he was dead set certain in the relationship

0:15:41.640 --> 0:15:44.880
<v Speaker 1>that he wanted most. That's the one that he's gonna post.

0:15:44.880 --> 0:15:46.440
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna take him a while to figure it out.

0:15:47.480 --> 0:15:49.560
<v Speaker 1>It's not good for anyone, Like, it's not good for him,

0:15:49.680 --> 0:15:52.000
<v Speaker 1>it's not good for the girls that are involved. The

0:15:52.440 --> 0:15:55.840
<v Speaker 1>fact of the matter is it's like he's basically sizing

0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:59.480
<v Speaker 1>up your relationship every night every time he posts. The

0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:01.920
<v Speaker 1>next post might be a relationship post. But if it's not,

0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:04.960
<v Speaker 1>it's because he's sizing up whether or not it's worth

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.000
<v Speaker 1>posting about, because he needs to figure out if he

0:16:08.040 --> 0:16:10.200
<v Speaker 1>wants to continue on in the relationship or not. That's

0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:14.240
<v Speaker 1>really what it is. If the relationships you mean the

0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:18.880
<v Speaker 1>relationship post, that's like the relationship post is the new age,

0:16:18.960 --> 0:16:21.000
<v Speaker 1>like will you be my girlfriend? The second you post

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.480
<v Speaker 1>a picture with your girlfriend, that's like you basically announcing

0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:26.760
<v Speaker 1>to the world I have a girlfriend. So what do

0:16:26.800 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 1>you guys think? I don't know. I think it's I

0:16:30.560 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 1>think it could be either or. I mean, you're entitled

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:36.560
<v Speaker 1>to run your own feed however you want. You know

0:16:36.640 --> 0:16:40.000
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't that should not play any sort of um,

0:16:40.480 --> 0:16:43.200
<v Speaker 1>should not have any circumstance on your relationship because you

0:16:43.240 --> 0:16:46.040
<v Speaker 1>do or don't post. That's the logical answer, But what's

0:16:46.080 --> 0:16:49.000
<v Speaker 1>the reasonable answer, Because here's the thing. It's like, I

0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:51.840
<v Speaker 1>know married couples. I know married couples that don't post

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:53.840
<v Speaker 1>about each other. They like you. It's also, you could

0:16:53.920 --> 0:16:57.720
<v Speaker 1>run your Instagram as a business like people people. Actually

0:16:57.840 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 1>that's a new job is having an Instagram can is

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.600
<v Speaker 1>your job? You can run that as a business. Now,

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:08.199
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people don't do business with their significant others. Like,

0:17:08.240 --> 0:17:10.320
<v Speaker 1>if you own a business a brick and mortar sword,

0:17:10.359 --> 0:17:12.439
<v Speaker 1>your wife doesn't have to work there. It's a modern

0:17:12.480 --> 0:17:16.000
<v Speaker 1>business Instagram, you don't have to have your significant other honor.

0:17:16.320 --> 0:17:18.440
<v Speaker 1>But let's say, like for most people that are listening

0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:23.240
<v Speaker 1>to this that don't have a business Instagram, well, maybe

0:17:23.240 --> 0:17:24.919
<v Speaker 1>it's just because I've been hanging around all the bats

0:17:25.000 --> 0:17:30.040
<v Speaker 1>or folks. So you guys execute exceptionally and I'm trying

0:17:30.080 --> 0:17:32.560
<v Speaker 1>to take some hands. You're right, it's always it's so

0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:35.359
<v Speaker 1>it's always personal preference. I think that there are people

0:17:35.400 --> 0:17:37.160
<v Speaker 1>that post way too soon. There are people that post

0:17:37.200 --> 0:17:39.880
<v Speaker 1>away too late. If there was a spectrum, I would

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:43.280
<v Speaker 1>be more on the too late side. I remember specifically, um,

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:46.479
<v Speaker 1>it's too late. Though years ago I was I was

0:17:46.520 --> 0:17:49.080
<v Speaker 1>exclusive with my girlfriend. We had been dating for so long,

0:17:49.240 --> 0:17:51.600
<v Speaker 1>not so long, a couple of months, right, But I

0:17:51.600 --> 0:17:55.119
<v Speaker 1>remember posting a photo of us like celebrating some victory

0:17:55.160 --> 0:17:57.919
<v Speaker 1>or whatever it was, and I remember we I posted

0:17:57.920 --> 0:17:59.359
<v Speaker 1>it while I was with her, and she got like

0:17:59.400 --> 0:18:01.480
<v Speaker 1>so many from your friends like, well, I can't believe

0:18:01.520 --> 0:18:03.320
<v Speaker 1>Dean posted a picture of you, guys, like, I'm so

0:18:03.359 --> 0:18:05.040
<v Speaker 1>happy for you, Like, I'm so proud of you, know

0:18:05.200 --> 0:18:08.920
<v Speaker 1>that kind of stuff. I'm saying that that is it's

0:18:08.960 --> 0:18:11.800
<v Speaker 1>a big tell in the relationship. It's like a big

0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:14.920
<v Speaker 1>step that's might be a bigger step than it used

0:18:14.920 --> 0:18:20.000
<v Speaker 1>to be. Of course, would you guys disagree? Brooks does, obviously,

0:18:20.040 --> 0:18:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Tasha well as her phone lights up with a new

0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:33.239
<v Speaker 1>Instagram notification. No, no, I feel like, um, okay, So,

0:18:33.280 --> 0:18:37.600
<v Speaker 1>say you're not dating anyone. People typically are texting a

0:18:37.640 --> 0:18:43.119
<v Speaker 1>couple of people, Is that right? So say you start

0:18:43.560 --> 0:18:45.320
<v Speaker 1>you want to date with someone and you start liking them,

0:18:45.320 --> 0:18:48.560
<v Speaker 1>but you're still like kind of texting other people. So

0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:51.920
<v Speaker 1>posting that photo means that those people that you are

0:18:51.960 --> 0:18:54.520
<v Speaker 1>texting is well aware of that, the fact that you

0:18:54.560 --> 0:18:59.040
<v Speaker 1>are actually more serious about someone. So um, that's how

0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:01.919
<v Speaker 1>I view that. Like, it's a pretty serious post in

0:19:01.960 --> 0:19:04.399
<v Speaker 1>the sense of like, and I hate that posting a

0:19:04.440 --> 0:19:09.000
<v Speaker 1>picture means so much. Okay, absolutely, that's like the purgatory

0:19:09.200 --> 0:19:13.600
<v Speaker 1>into exclusivity in a sense exactly so, But honestly, I

0:19:13.680 --> 0:19:15.440
<v Speaker 1>feel like people should just be able to post things

0:19:15.480 --> 0:19:18.800
<v Speaker 1>and like people just like, here's my girlfriend on Monday,

0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:21.159
<v Speaker 1>here's my girlfriend on a Saturday, here's my girlfriend on

0:19:21.160 --> 0:19:24.000
<v Speaker 1>a Friday. I don't know, I disagree, but anyways, we're

0:19:24.000 --> 0:19:26.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna be all ready for the next question. How many

0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:34.360
<v Speaker 1>dates until you can sleep with someone? M tatious? Squirm

0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:42.040
<v Speaker 1>it over? No, come on, I think I think the

0:19:42.080 --> 0:19:44.720
<v Speaker 1>first date's fine. I don't see why not if you

0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:47.280
<v Speaker 1>feel the vibe, if something's going if something's going well.

0:19:47.960 --> 0:19:49.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to sit back and say that I've

0:19:49.520 --> 0:19:52.080
<v Speaker 1>never slept to someone on the first date, Like, obviously

0:19:52.080 --> 0:19:54.840
<v Speaker 1>that happens. It's it's it's human nature. If something is

0:19:54.880 --> 0:19:59.240
<v Speaker 1>going well, do you have you slept with more people

0:19:59.240 --> 0:20:03.320
<v Speaker 1>on the first day then a second, a second or after.

0:20:04.400 --> 0:20:06.440
<v Speaker 1>That's a really good question, Tor, And I'm actually kind

0:20:06.440 --> 0:20:09.440
<v Speaker 1>of offended that you asked the producer Tori, I'm like, wow,

0:20:09.640 --> 0:20:15.800
<v Speaker 1>producing her friends out of principle. I'm going to say no,

0:20:15.920 --> 0:20:20.440
<v Speaker 1>I haven't, but allow me to reflect on a little

0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:22.439
<v Speaker 1>bit more and I might have a different answer for you.

0:20:22.480 --> 0:20:25.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. Oh man, I don't know. I was

0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:31.960
<v Speaker 1>so bad at the dating game. I missed that whole train. Um.

0:20:32.000 --> 0:20:34.480
<v Speaker 1>I think if you're I don't know, like as a guy,

0:20:35.000 --> 0:20:37.520
<v Speaker 1>I didn't. I wasn't interested in that because I didn't

0:20:37.520 --> 0:20:41.560
<v Speaker 1>want that to be how the relationship started. I wanted

0:20:41.600 --> 0:20:45.399
<v Speaker 1>to go and enjoy an evening and and then like

0:20:45.880 --> 0:20:49.200
<v Speaker 1>kind of step back from it, and I wanted you know, see,

0:20:49.680 --> 0:20:51.800
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm I think I'm like an old school guy,

0:20:52.560 --> 0:20:56.400
<v Speaker 1>like at heart somewhat Brooks, You're You're always the exception

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:59.560
<v Speaker 1>in the sense that just like Jared right, like Brooks

0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:03.360
<v Speaker 1>and Jared, it are just like genuinely inherently amazing men.

0:21:04.400 --> 0:21:06.960
<v Speaker 1>But you're in the exception. You're the exception. You're not

0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:08.960
<v Speaker 1>the rule, you know what I mean? I actually think

0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:13.439
<v Speaker 1>like I'm the exception because I have so little experience

0:21:13.480 --> 0:21:16.560
<v Speaker 1>in dating. You're not the exception because I'm kind of

0:21:16.600 --> 0:21:19.840
<v Speaker 1>there with you, buddy, What do you mean? No, Like,

0:21:19.960 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 1>I've never slept on the first date. Come on, you're

0:21:22.800 --> 0:21:25.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna say I'm the only person here that's slept with someone.

0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:26.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying that you're in the wrong, and I'm

0:21:26.800 --> 0:21:29.760
<v Speaker 1>not saying this anything wrong with it. However, I can

0:21:29.800 --> 0:21:32.439
<v Speaker 1>count on one hand how many people I have slept with,

0:21:33.280 --> 0:21:37.400
<v Speaker 1>So how many fingers do you have? Okay? But I'm

0:21:37.440 --> 0:21:40.240
<v Speaker 1>just saying, like, no, I take that self really seriously.

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:44.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, Well, yet again, dina'sser size because you have

0:21:45.040 --> 0:21:51.720
<v Speaker 1>been voted everybody to take a sip of their wine,

0:21:53.640 --> 0:21:55.359
<v Speaker 1>we should do this like you grab your water, Brook.

0:21:56.119 --> 0:21:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I'm such the wrong person for this episode.

0:21:59.560 --> 0:22:07.920
<v Speaker 1>What's your favorite way to be seduced? A horrible word?

0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.000
<v Speaker 1>So what would you like to say? No, Tassia has

0:22:10.000 --> 0:22:14.560
<v Speaker 1>an answers that's like, speak up now. Tassia crosses her arms,

0:22:14.560 --> 0:22:16.760
<v Speaker 1>sits back and says, I'm not saying That means he

0:22:16.800 --> 0:22:19.800
<v Speaker 1>definitely has something to say. There's something worth being sad

0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:22.000
<v Speaker 1>that Tassa is not saying. It could be a foot rob,

0:22:22.000 --> 0:22:23.720
<v Speaker 1>it could be a whisper in the air, it could

0:22:23.720 --> 0:22:26.199
<v Speaker 1>be a kiss on the forehead. What makes you a

0:22:26.240 --> 0:22:29.160
<v Speaker 1>little bit like oh no? Because that creeps me out

0:22:29.160 --> 0:22:30.800
<v Speaker 1>because then people are going to know what I like.

0:22:33.040 --> 0:22:38.320
<v Speaker 1>Don't give away. I get what you're saying. Here's the thing.

0:22:38.320 --> 0:22:40.640
<v Speaker 1>If you're listening to this podcast and you're a potential

0:22:40.680 --> 0:22:44.439
<v Speaker 1>contestant on Bachelor, stay tuned, because Tastia is about to

0:22:44.480 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 1>let you in on what might make Tasa. Come on.

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:54.760
<v Speaker 1>You gotta tell us that's really, I'm I'm curious. As

0:22:54.800 --> 0:22:59.040
<v Speaker 1>a friend and as a I will say something that

0:22:59.080 --> 0:23:01.359
<v Speaker 1>gets me that I love. And it's very simple. It's

0:23:01.400 --> 0:23:03.120
<v Speaker 1>just like when you're on a date when the man

0:23:03.160 --> 0:23:07.280
<v Speaker 1>grabs your like waist, the lower around the waist, I'm like,

0:23:09.000 --> 0:23:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna piggyback off of that. There is there is

0:23:11.520 --> 0:23:16.159
<v Speaker 1>a what's the word I'm looking for? Like, there's you

0:23:16.160 --> 0:23:18.920
<v Speaker 1>can go beyond grabbing the waist, right, And once you've

0:23:19.000 --> 0:23:22.399
<v Speaker 1>established that, you can like like go under the shirt

0:23:22.440 --> 0:23:24.560
<v Speaker 1>a little bit, not like not like go under the shirt,

0:23:24.560 --> 0:23:26.879
<v Speaker 1>but like between the T shirt and the and the

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:28.960
<v Speaker 1>jeans there's like an inch gap and sometimes you can

0:23:29.000 --> 0:23:32.320
<v Speaker 1>like slide a middle finger in there on the hip.

0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:36.600
<v Speaker 1>And that might be the most intimate moment of any relationship.

0:23:36.800 --> 0:23:41.760
<v Speaker 1>Is the second you make skin to skin, The second

0:23:41.760 --> 0:23:45.000
<v Speaker 1>you skin to skin outside of wrists and above, that's

0:23:45.000 --> 0:23:47.879
<v Speaker 1>when things can become a little bit more sexual than

0:23:47.920 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 1>they might have been. Brus, what about you. I like ears. Actually,

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:53.040
<v Speaker 1>my ears are and I think I think in general

0:23:53.320 --> 0:23:56.120
<v Speaker 1>ears are a very rogenous zone or they know. Sorry,

0:23:56.119 --> 0:23:58.399
<v Speaker 1>So when you look at an ear or when not

0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:01.359
<v Speaker 1>really looking at an ear, no, like you're on it

0:24:02.119 --> 0:24:06.320
<v Speaker 1>you're on it. I think actually, your lobes are actually

0:24:06.480 --> 0:24:08.399
<v Speaker 1>aren't they supposed to be like an orogynous stone? I

0:24:08.440 --> 0:24:11.440
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I like when like my wife kisses my ear,

0:24:11.680 --> 0:24:14.880
<v Speaker 1>is it orogynous like a rock formation or something like that?

0:24:15.480 --> 0:24:25.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, no, that's that's that's erogenous. Can you cut

0:24:25.240 --> 0:24:28.600
<v Speaker 1>that before before we move on to the next one.

0:24:28.600 --> 0:24:30.639
<v Speaker 1>Tail definitely has something to say that she wanted to

0:24:30.640 --> 0:24:32.800
<v Speaker 1>share with us. I do like it when people whisper

0:24:32.800 --> 0:24:38.080
<v Speaker 1>in my ear. Yeah, that was very very but like

0:24:38.880 --> 0:24:44.000
<v Speaker 1>it's playful. No, I like innocent leading and it's playful

0:24:44.040 --> 0:24:45.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's so innocent. Why did you want to keep

0:24:45.880 --> 0:24:48.119
<v Speaker 1>that from us? It's just like I don't want random

0:24:48.119 --> 0:24:51.480
<v Speaker 1>people whispering my ear. Yes, I agree. If you're listening

0:24:51.480 --> 0:24:55.399
<v Speaker 1>to this, do not whisper in tihes here unless there's

0:24:55.600 --> 0:24:57.680
<v Speaker 1>a second day, or unless you get a middle finger

0:24:57.760 --> 0:25:00.440
<v Speaker 1>between a T shirt and the gene gap and maybe

0:25:00.400 --> 0:25:04.160
<v Speaker 1>a whisper in the air. This is weird. I've never

0:25:04.200 --> 0:25:07.240
<v Speaker 1>heard of the middle finger before between the T shirt

0:25:06.480 --> 0:25:10.399
<v Speaker 1>and all right, ready for the next Yes, do you

0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:14.360
<v Speaker 1>prefer sex in the morning, afternoon or evening? Nice? That's

0:25:14.359 --> 0:25:20.200
<v Speaker 1>a great question. Any actually, yeah, and it's just truthfully,

0:25:20.240 --> 0:25:22.280
<v Speaker 1>I mean it used to be. It used to be

0:25:23.119 --> 0:25:28.480
<v Speaker 1>evening mainly, but now, um, I'm not playing hockey, I'm retired.

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:30.639
<v Speaker 1>I can my day can be what I want it

0:25:30.640 --> 0:25:38.959
<v Speaker 1>to be, so it doesn't have to be evening. I'm

0:25:38.960 --> 0:25:41.480
<v Speaker 1>embarrassed because mine's the exact opposite. It's almost like not

0:25:41.800 --> 0:25:45.240
<v Speaker 1>I got I've gotten to the point where, especially considering

0:25:45.280 --> 0:25:46.679
<v Speaker 1>the fact that I have a broken leg and I

0:25:46.680 --> 0:25:48.280
<v Speaker 1>can't do the things that I want to do, my

0:25:48.320 --> 0:25:51.360
<v Speaker 1>motivation is kind of shot, which also means my my

0:25:51.359 --> 0:25:55.520
<v Speaker 1>my sexual vigor of sorts. I guess you would say

0:25:55.520 --> 0:25:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a little shot as well, and I'm a little

0:25:56.960 --> 0:25:59.360
<v Speaker 1>embarrassed about it sometimes, but I'm willing to obviously talk

0:25:59.400 --> 0:26:03.440
<v Speaker 1>about it and here, so when you say morning, afternoon,

0:26:03.600 --> 0:26:05.920
<v Speaker 1>or night, I would say, honestly, none of them, because

0:26:06.160 --> 0:26:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I've I am just I'm disgraced by myself sometimes, Okay,

0:26:11.160 --> 0:26:12.879
<v Speaker 1>but it really is like at the same time, like

0:26:12.960 --> 0:26:15.600
<v Speaker 1>you don't need to be well. It definitely hurts. It

0:26:15.640 --> 0:26:18.320
<v Speaker 1>definitely hurts, right like that I've got a hip issue

0:26:18.400 --> 0:26:23.439
<v Speaker 1>and thrusting would be inherently painful. But there you know,

0:26:23.520 --> 0:26:25.720
<v Speaker 1>it's just it's it's not really it's a sensitive subject.

0:26:25.840 --> 0:26:27.840
<v Speaker 1>It's just a season. I think it's just a season.

0:26:27.840 --> 0:26:29.960
<v Speaker 1>It's like sometimes you'll go on like a workout kick

0:26:30.040 --> 0:26:33.520
<v Speaker 1>or a health kick or whatever, like a meditation kick

0:26:33.640 --> 0:26:36.320
<v Speaker 1>or whatever you're into. Like, I think there's many seasons

0:26:36.320 --> 0:26:38.520
<v Speaker 1>of life. And I think that's no difference with with

0:26:38.600 --> 0:26:41.040
<v Speaker 1>sex drive. Um, I've talked about on the podcast before.

0:26:41.640 --> 0:26:43.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to bring it back to like a

0:26:43.400 --> 0:26:48.199
<v Speaker 1>year ago. But Tasia, what do you have to say? No,

0:26:48.600 --> 0:26:54.919
<v Speaker 1>you're right, I was gonna say something in I was

0:26:54.920 --> 0:26:57.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna say, I do think that I border on the

0:26:57.560 --> 0:27:00.760
<v Speaker 1>spectrum of asexuality. Like I'm not like Sue Puper motivated

0:27:00.800 --> 0:27:03.320
<v Speaker 1>by sex. Like it doesn't like I don't have to

0:27:03.359 --> 0:27:05.040
<v Speaker 1>be in a relationship for the fact of having sex

0:27:05.040 --> 0:27:07.720
<v Speaker 1>with someone. Like the person of person connection, in my opinion,

0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:10.160
<v Speaker 1>is more important to me than the physical connection. Well,

0:27:10.240 --> 0:27:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I do think the physical connection is important, of course,

0:27:12.760 --> 0:27:18.560
<v Speaker 1>in any situation. Uh, it's not like an inherent necessary necessary,

0:27:19.280 --> 0:27:22.119
<v Speaker 1>uh implement of the relationship for me, you know what

0:27:22.200 --> 0:27:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I mean. And some people are the opposite. Some people

0:27:25.520 --> 0:27:27.280
<v Speaker 1>are I have a friend who is like I have

0:27:27.400 --> 0:27:29.280
<v Speaker 1>to have a boyfriend because I can't go more than

0:27:29.320 --> 0:27:33.600
<v Speaker 1>two days without having sex. Some people are the exact opposite,

0:27:33.760 --> 0:27:36.560
<v Speaker 1>But but then there are people like that like that

0:27:36.560 --> 0:27:38.359
<v Speaker 1>that are because you're right. I feel like in a

0:27:38.640 --> 0:27:41.680
<v Speaker 1>in us in um uh society that we live in now,

0:27:41.760 --> 0:27:44.200
<v Speaker 1>like sex has become such a prevalent thing and everyone

0:27:44.240 --> 0:27:46.679
<v Speaker 1>talks about it, everyone knows that everyone is doing it,

0:27:46.880 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 1>but then you're also kind of like expected to be

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:51.680
<v Speaker 1>doing it all the time. And in a situation like mine,

0:27:51.680 --> 0:27:53.720
<v Speaker 1>where I'm like, sex is great, don't get me wrong,

0:27:53.760 --> 0:27:56.440
<v Speaker 1>Like I love sex. It's fantastic if you're doing it, fantastic.

0:27:56.480 --> 0:27:59.399
<v Speaker 1>If you're not doing it, that's also great. But uh,

0:27:59.480 --> 0:28:02.639
<v Speaker 1>I feel like sometimes relationships are judged by that, like

0:28:02.680 --> 0:28:06.080
<v Speaker 1>it's it's like a barometer for how successful, how successful

0:28:06.080 --> 0:28:09.840
<v Speaker 1>a relationship is, when in reality, like that's just like

0:28:09.880 --> 0:28:11.719
<v Speaker 1>a small fraction of it. And like in the beginning,

0:28:11.680 --> 0:28:14.000
<v Speaker 1>sty just sure it's like an important facet of a relationship.

0:28:14.040 --> 0:28:16.480
<v Speaker 1>But as things move on and Brooks, I'm sure you

0:28:16.480 --> 0:28:18.320
<v Speaker 1>can attest this because you've been in a relationship longer

0:28:18.320 --> 0:28:20.960
<v Speaker 1>than any of us have been, It's like it doesn't

0:28:20.960 --> 0:28:23.720
<v Speaker 1>become less of a relationship, but it becomes less of

0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:28.600
<v Speaker 1>a priority or less of a necessary part of it. No,

0:28:28.760 --> 0:28:31.040
<v Speaker 1>I think that part grows as the other part grow

0:28:31.119 --> 0:28:35.600
<v Speaker 1>as well. Like you you can still, um learn about somebody,

0:28:35.640 --> 0:28:38.640
<v Speaker 1>and I'm only six years in with my wife. Um,

0:28:38.760 --> 0:28:41.160
<v Speaker 1>you still continue to learn about you. And also you

0:28:41.240 --> 0:28:44.120
<v Speaker 1>change and you evolve in and your desires and cravings

0:28:44.120 --> 0:28:47.000
<v Speaker 1>and her desires and cravings they change as well. You're

0:28:47.040 --> 0:28:49.080
<v Speaker 1>not going to be the same sexual being that you

0:28:49.120 --> 0:28:52.480
<v Speaker 1>are now the rest of your life, you know, and

0:28:52.520 --> 0:28:55.320
<v Speaker 1>your partners not either. You're gonna have you know, things

0:28:55.360 --> 0:28:59.640
<v Speaker 1>that change within you. And um, maybe you're more into atmosphere,

0:28:59.680 --> 0:29:03.720
<v Speaker 1>maybe like music more, maybe like more sensual connection. Maybe

0:29:03.920 --> 0:29:08.000
<v Speaker 1>like you're gonna and that that can be daily, weekly, monthly, yearly,

0:29:08.080 --> 0:29:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Like you're going to go through different ebbs and flows.

0:29:09.880 --> 0:29:12.720
<v Speaker 1>And that's what I've learned in my partnership is learning

0:29:12.800 --> 0:29:15.360
<v Speaker 1>more about that. And I don't think it diminishes over time.

0:29:15.360 --> 0:29:18.760
<v Speaker 1>I actually think you explore more and um, yeah, you

0:29:18.800 --> 0:29:22.760
<v Speaker 1>reach a different level of connection with that person. Beautiful,

0:29:23.000 --> 0:29:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I agree, But also I agree with that. I feel

0:29:25.760 --> 0:29:29.560
<v Speaker 1>like there are things that I find um more stimulating

0:29:29.600 --> 0:29:33.280
<v Speaker 1>the others, and but at the same time, I feel

0:29:33.280 --> 0:29:36.120
<v Speaker 1>like there are times that I what are you looking

0:29:36.160 --> 0:29:42.400
<v Speaker 1>at torres computer? Um? At the time, I feel like um. Sometimes,

0:29:42.400 --> 0:29:45.280
<v Speaker 1>like when work gets really busy, you know, sometimes someone's

0:29:45.320 --> 0:29:48.320
<v Speaker 1>really preoccupied in their mind or whatever, and like that

0:29:48.440 --> 0:29:51.800
<v Speaker 1>part of a relationship kind of diminishes, but then at

0:29:51.800 --> 0:29:53.920
<v Speaker 1>the same time, it kind of grows at different times.

0:29:54.400 --> 0:29:57.040
<v Speaker 1>But I would say that I never answered the question

0:29:57.160 --> 0:30:06.480
<v Speaker 1>afternoon time, right afternoon, delight, delight, morning afternoon. Interesting, Okay,

0:30:06.520 --> 0:30:08.800
<v Speaker 1>that's the last one I would expected in your opinion.

0:30:09.640 --> 0:30:15.640
<v Speaker 1>What does it mean to be good in bed? Great question? Actually,

0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:19.640
<v Speaker 1>that's a great question. Good in bed for a guy?

0:30:19.680 --> 0:30:23.200
<v Speaker 1>I think, Uh, Brooks obviously answer this question better than

0:30:23.240 --> 0:30:25.160
<v Speaker 1>the rest of us because it's got a stallion up

0:30:25.200 --> 0:30:30.120
<v Speaker 1>here morning, afternoon and nighttime. It doesn't matter to him.

0:30:30.160 --> 0:30:36.920
<v Speaker 1>He's getting it all times. You know me very little.

0:30:38.240 --> 0:30:43.640
<v Speaker 1>This guy just never gives it for me. Uh, someone

0:30:43.640 --> 0:30:46.680
<v Speaker 1>that's very generous. I think is is probably the best

0:30:46.960 --> 0:30:51.840
<v Speaker 1>thing for that. Right, Like, what was the question, I'll

0:30:51.880 --> 0:30:53.360
<v Speaker 1>go on it. What does it mean to be good

0:30:53.400 --> 0:30:55.960
<v Speaker 1>in bed? Right? Is that someone that's what does it

0:30:56.000 --> 0:31:00.160
<v Speaker 1>mean to you to be good in bed? Oh? To me?

0:31:00.760 --> 0:31:04.640
<v Speaker 1>As far as for the other person, get no, no no, no, no,

0:31:04.640 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna answer this. As far as not the other person,

0:31:06.640 --> 0:31:08.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't care about the other person. I care about

0:31:10.720 --> 0:31:13.040
<v Speaker 1>this is. This has gotten very weird. As far as

0:31:13.160 --> 0:31:16.960
<v Speaker 1>the Help I Secredating podcast, I don't know what's going on. Yeah,

0:31:17.200 --> 0:31:18.840
<v Speaker 1>let me put a thought out there. I think it's

0:31:19.200 --> 0:31:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I think it's openness and willingness and communication. Yeah. It's like, like,

0:31:25.520 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 1>here's the thing. You're thinking one thing, they might be

0:31:28.600 --> 0:31:31.480
<v Speaker 1>thinking another thing. You have cravings, you have desires, you

0:31:31.720 --> 0:31:35.000
<v Speaker 1>like they do too. And none of us are perfect

0:31:35.080 --> 0:31:38.640
<v Speaker 1>at this. And I'm not going to read minds and um,

0:31:38.680 --> 0:31:41.600
<v Speaker 1>you know, like there's there's trust is a great word

0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:44.240
<v Speaker 1>for it. I think just an openness and a willingness

0:31:44.240 --> 0:31:46.720
<v Speaker 1>and and I think you also need to speak when

0:31:46.760 --> 0:31:50.040
<v Speaker 1>what you want. You know, don't don't expect your partner

0:31:50.360 --> 0:31:53.600
<v Speaker 1>to fulfill your every need. They don't know what you're thinking.

0:31:53.840 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 1>Communication is great, yeah, so be open to be honest,

0:31:57.800 --> 0:32:00.600
<v Speaker 1>speak up for what you want. And I also heard

0:32:00.600 --> 0:32:02.560
<v Speaker 1>a great line on a podcast the other day that

0:32:03.120 --> 0:32:05.440
<v Speaker 1>um was amazing. It's just a beautiful line. It was

0:32:06.600 --> 0:32:10.840
<v Speaker 1>nothing dirty can exist between two people in love, you know,

0:32:10.960 --> 0:32:14.760
<v Speaker 1>so what you know? It was just like, um, you

0:32:14.880 --> 0:32:17.960
<v Speaker 1>love the person explore with the person whatever you guys

0:32:17.960 --> 0:32:20.920
<v Speaker 1>are into. I mean, there's many different ways to explore sexuality.

0:32:21.440 --> 0:32:26.360
<v Speaker 1>It's weird, uh, to speak candidly, is there's it seems

0:32:26.400 --> 0:32:28.480
<v Speaker 1>like there's a bit of taboo attached to the idea

0:32:28.520 --> 0:32:32.440
<v Speaker 1>of communicating sexually with your partner, which which is which

0:32:32.480 --> 0:32:35.479
<v Speaker 1>is insane because if you think of all of life, like,

0:32:35.520 --> 0:32:38.800
<v Speaker 1>the most powerful, powerful thing in the world is sexual energy.

0:32:39.000 --> 0:32:41.480
<v Speaker 1>It's the only reason we're here. You're here. You're here,

0:32:41.520 --> 0:32:44.240
<v Speaker 1>You're here because there was enough sexual energy between two

0:32:44.240 --> 0:32:48.400
<v Speaker 1>people to literally create a life. Yet it's the thing

0:32:48.440 --> 0:32:51.360
<v Speaker 1>that's taboo that we don't talk about, that we don't explore.

0:32:51.400 --> 0:32:54.480
<v Speaker 1>We know very little about it. And hands up, I'm

0:32:54.600 --> 0:32:57.040
<v Speaker 1>one of these guys. And so this year I've started

0:32:57.040 --> 0:33:00.520
<v Speaker 1>to learn more about intimacy, learn more about sex reality,

0:33:00.560 --> 0:33:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Like what does it mean to be a sexual being?

0:33:03.720 --> 0:33:05.920
<v Speaker 1>We know very little about it, yet it's such a

0:33:05.960 --> 0:33:09.120
<v Speaker 1>powerful thing in the world. That's so true. I didn't

0:33:09.120 --> 0:33:13.200
<v Speaker 1>even think about that. I meant, energy is a huge deal. Well.

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:14.920
<v Speaker 1>The weird thing for me for me to think about

0:33:15.200 --> 0:33:18.760
<v Speaker 1>my like internalized it is. Uh. In my relationship, I'm

0:33:18.760 --> 0:33:21.640
<v Speaker 1>super open, but I feel like there are still things

0:33:21.640 --> 0:33:24.200
<v Speaker 1>sexually that we're like kind of closed off about, you

0:33:24.240 --> 0:33:26.120
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean. So it's like, there are so

0:33:26.120 --> 0:33:27.960
<v Speaker 1>many things that you can be open about, but at

0:33:27.960 --> 0:33:29.160
<v Speaker 1>the end of day, it's like, are you being open?

0:33:30.040 --> 0:33:33.120

0:37:54.520 --> 0:37:57.239
<v Speaker 1>story before you can while you think of yours. So

0:37:57.280 --> 0:37:59.759
<v Speaker 1>when I first graduated college, I got a job at

0:37:59.800 --> 0:38:06.319
<v Speaker 1>a recruiting agency in Denver, Colorado. And the thing about

0:38:06.320 --> 0:38:09.759
<v Speaker 1>this recruiting agency is they hire only attractive men and

0:38:09.800 --> 0:38:12.480
<v Speaker 1>women to become, you know, successful people at some point

0:38:12.520 --> 0:38:16.720
<v Speaker 1>in their lives. Anyways, the the sales managers of my office,

0:38:16.800 --> 0:38:19.480
<v Speaker 1>we're both very successful. They were both very beautiful. They're

0:38:19.480 --> 0:38:22.600
<v Speaker 1>both very young. They were you know, late twenties, early thirties.

0:38:23.719 --> 0:38:26.759
<v Speaker 1>And I'm working my butt off and I show up

0:38:26.760 --> 0:38:30.319
<v Speaker 1>one day to work and my sales manager there's there's

0:38:30.360 --> 0:38:32.520
<v Speaker 1>one man and one woman and they're both sales managers.

0:38:32.520 --> 0:38:35.600
<v Speaker 1>And the female sales sales manager comes to me and

0:38:35.640 --> 0:38:39.719
<v Speaker 1>she pulls me aside in the morning of of what

0:38:39.800 --> 0:38:41.400
<v Speaker 1>we call the stand up, which is where we like

0:38:41.480 --> 0:38:43.719
<v Speaker 1>run over all of our open requisitions and we run

0:38:43.760 --> 0:38:46.240
<v Speaker 1>over like all of our open possibilities to like close

0:38:46.320 --> 0:38:48.759
<v Speaker 1>deals and make money, et cetera. She pulls me like

0:38:48.800 --> 0:38:51.680
<v Speaker 1>aside before we like jump into everything, and she goes, hey, Dean,

0:38:51.800 --> 0:38:55.520
<v Speaker 1>last night, like I had a weird, uh sexual dream

0:38:55.560 --> 0:38:59.160
<v Speaker 1>about you. And this woman is like, uh, like highly

0:38:59.200 --> 0:39:02.400
<v Speaker 1>sought after woman, Like she's beautiful and she's very successful.

0:39:02.400 --> 0:39:05.839
<v Speaker 1>Obviously she's a sales manager, but she's also like married, right,

0:39:05.840 --> 0:39:09.319
<v Speaker 1>and so it's like it was it was obviously a

0:39:09.400 --> 0:39:12.040
<v Speaker 1>dream and dreams don't mean anything in my opinion, but

0:39:12.080 --> 0:39:15.200
<v Speaker 1>like the fact that she like, why would she say

0:39:15.480 --> 0:39:18.360
<v Speaker 1>every every guy in the office had a crush on

0:39:18.400 --> 0:39:22.480
<v Speaker 1>this girl because she was like beautiful, successful, smart, whatever, etcetera, etcetera.

0:39:22.640 --> 0:39:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Beautiful pulled me aside and she goes and I was

0:39:25.000 --> 0:39:27.080

0:39:28.840 --> 0:39:30.840
<v Speaker 1>last night. And it was like the weirdest thing I

0:39:31.080 --> 0:39:34.399
<v Speaker 1>think I've ever It was like I loved it. I'm

0:39:34.440 --> 0:39:37.719
<v Speaker 1>not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. I'm not gonna lie. Yes,

0:39:37.840 --> 0:39:39.560
<v Speaker 1>she was serious, I'm not gonna lie. I liked it

0:39:39.600 --> 0:39:43.239
<v Speaker 1>like it made me feel very like validated for even

0:39:43.280 --> 0:39:44.920
<v Speaker 1>being in the office. At that point, I like, I

0:39:45.000 --> 0:39:46.479
<v Speaker 1>like walked around the rest of day with my chest

0:39:46.480 --> 0:39:48.839
<v Speaker 1>puffed out. I was like, Oh, what's up? What's up? Mike?

0:39:48.880 --> 0:39:51.120
<v Speaker 1>Do you hear what? Do you hear what she said

0:39:51.120 --> 0:39:53.840
<v Speaker 1>about me? And oh, Jason, yeah, you hear what she

0:39:53.840 --> 0:39:56.480
<v Speaker 1>said about me? I feel like with that mustache right now,

0:39:56.520 --> 0:40:01.880
<v Speaker 1>that's perfect story, It's perfect. Yeah, did any did anything

0:40:01.960 --> 0:40:06.600
<v Speaker 1>ever happen between you? And absolutely not? But but the

0:40:06.640 --> 0:40:09.080
<v Speaker 1>idea that she, like, you know, had the the the

0:40:09.120 --> 0:40:12.000
<v Speaker 1>impression that something possibly could happen, was like that was

0:40:12.080 --> 0:40:15.440
<v Speaker 1>exciting to a twenty two year old who had just

0:40:15.480 --> 0:40:17.479
<v Speaker 1>gone his first job out of college. Didn't think about

0:40:17.480 --> 0:40:22.040
<v Speaker 1>contacting HR. Hown't think HR existed in the company, and

0:40:22.360 --> 0:40:24.279
<v Speaker 1>even if it did, I don't think I like I

0:40:24.320 --> 0:40:27.200
<v Speaker 1>was excited, Like I wasn't upset about it. Absolutely crazy

0:40:27.200 --> 0:40:28.879
<v Speaker 1>that should come up to you and say that. It

0:40:28.920 --> 0:40:30.919
<v Speaker 1>was more of like, hey, Dean, guess what ha ha

0:40:30.920 --> 0:40:35.000
<v Speaker 1>ha ha Okay, But I was more of like, I

0:40:35.000 --> 0:40:38.960
<v Speaker 1>have I have something like similar in that Vein my

0:40:39.080 --> 0:40:41.600
<v Speaker 1>first pro camp, I was eighteen years old. I had

0:40:41.600 --> 0:40:43.840
<v Speaker 1>just been drafted go to pro camp and we have

0:40:43.920 --> 0:40:46.200
<v Speaker 1>to pass a physical before we can even get on

0:40:46.239 --> 0:40:49.400
<v Speaker 1>the ice. And I go downstairs to see the doctor

0:40:49.600 --> 0:40:53.680
<v Speaker 1>and walk into the doctor's office and um, this is

0:40:53.800 --> 0:40:59.759
<v Speaker 1>attractive woman, and I'm like, okay, and so anyway, my first,

0:41:00.120 --> 0:41:03.520
<v Speaker 1>my first, like big physical. I'm eighteen years old, right,

0:41:03.840 --> 0:41:06.000
<v Speaker 1>And then she checks out a couple of joints whatever.

0:41:06.040 --> 0:41:08.760
<v Speaker 1>She's like, okay, drop your drawers and I'm like what

0:41:09.160 --> 0:41:12.040
<v Speaker 1>and she's like, I need to feel your testicles, like

0:41:12.880 --> 0:41:14.960
<v Speaker 1>I need like they do a check, you know, the cough.

0:41:15.040 --> 0:41:18.759
<v Speaker 1>Have you ever had that? Dean Like yeah. So so

0:41:18.840 --> 0:41:21.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm like I'm like thinking, I'm like, what do I

0:41:21.920 --> 0:41:24.480
<v Speaker 1>do here. I'm like, I'm I'm an eighteen year old kid.

0:41:24.600 --> 0:41:27.480
<v Speaker 1>This woman is probably like forty years old, very attractive,

0:41:27.520 --> 0:41:30.320
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, I'm terrified I'm going to get a boner,

0:41:30.920 --> 0:41:34.600
<v Speaker 1>Like terrified because she's gonna put her hands right up

0:41:34.880 --> 0:41:37.439
<v Speaker 1>there and I have to cough and this is gonna

0:41:37.480 --> 0:41:40.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, oh my god. Um, and I like I

0:41:40.560 --> 0:41:44.239
<v Speaker 1>think I closed my eyes close to my eyes so

0:41:44.280 --> 0:41:46.800
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't think about it and just drop my shorts.

0:41:46.800 --> 0:41:48.719
<v Speaker 1>And then we did it, and it was like the

0:41:48.760 --> 0:41:53.200
<v Speaker 1>most awkward thing about like, hey, listen, sometimes when someone

0:41:53.280 --> 0:41:55.480
<v Speaker 1>is grabbing the things that they're not supposed to grad like,

0:41:55.560 --> 0:42:01.279
<v Speaker 1>it invokes excitement. Yeah, hey, it's a natural thing, right,

0:42:02.400 --> 0:42:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I agree. Before we we're gonna move on to one

0:42:05.200 --> 0:42:06.759
<v Speaker 1>more thing. But before we do that, we're gonna take

0:42:06.760 --> 0:42:08.680
<v Speaker 1>one quick break and we will be right back to

0:42:08.760 --> 0:42:22.080
<v Speaker 1>it hot. Before we get back to it, Tasia is

0:42:22.080 --> 0:42:25.879
<v Speaker 1>going to share her vivid sex streams about some man

0:42:26.040 --> 0:42:30.120
<v Speaker 1>that she used to work with. I feel like I'm

0:42:30.160 --> 0:42:36.000
<v Speaker 1>the only one. Can you stop listen. It's hard and

0:42:36.040 --> 0:42:37.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm not going to do all that. I get it.

0:42:37.760 --> 0:42:41.279
<v Speaker 1>I get it. Okay, Tori, we understand that we have

0:42:41.920 --> 0:42:44.680
<v Speaker 1>an email from a listener that needs a little bit

0:42:44.719 --> 0:42:46.960
<v Speaker 1>of help, So let's dive into that real quick. I

0:42:47.040 --> 0:42:49.640
<v Speaker 1>just got into a long distance relationship. I met my

0:42:49.680 --> 0:42:52.280
<v Speaker 1>boyfriend back in July and we have talked every day since.

0:42:52.640 --> 0:42:55.600
<v Speaker 1>He's coming down for Valentine's Day. And I've never done

0:42:55.600 --> 0:42:57.400
<v Speaker 1>this long distance thing and I'm still learning how to

0:42:57.440 --> 0:43:01.000
<v Speaker 1>handle it. But I do need more affection through texting.

0:43:01.200 --> 0:43:03.439
<v Speaker 1>My love language is words of affirmation, and I don't

0:43:03.440 --> 0:43:05.759
<v Speaker 1>get that from him when we say goodbye after we

0:43:05.800 --> 0:43:08.319
<v Speaker 1>see each other. We both get kind of emotional, and

0:43:08.360 --> 0:43:10.239
<v Speaker 1>I keep saying it over and over, but when I

0:43:10.280 --> 0:43:13.000
<v Speaker 1>say it to him over FaceTime or text, he never

0:43:13.040 --> 0:43:14.920
<v Speaker 1>says it back. I feel like he doesn't get the

0:43:15.280 --> 0:43:18.279
<v Speaker 1>clues I send. And when I I feel like he

0:43:18.320 --> 0:43:20.399
<v Speaker 1>doesn't get the clues I send him when I want

0:43:20.480 --> 0:43:22.719
<v Speaker 1>him to say something to me, how do I bring

0:43:22.719 --> 0:43:26.520
<v Speaker 1>it back up to him without sounding too scary or needy?

0:43:27.160 --> 0:43:29.359
<v Speaker 1>See the thing with this situation is I can't really

0:43:29.360 --> 0:43:32.120
<v Speaker 1>contribute to this argument because words of affirmation is my

0:43:32.239 --> 0:43:36.400
<v Speaker 1>absolute lowest words of affirmation. I can't give words affirmation

0:43:36.480 --> 0:43:39.560
<v Speaker 1>like I'm absolutely horrible at it, So I don't want

0:43:39.560 --> 0:43:41.000
<v Speaker 1>to see here and pretend like I'm good at it.

0:43:41.520 --> 0:43:43.879
<v Speaker 1>Um So I think Tastia should answer this question. Wait,

0:43:43.920 --> 0:43:46.920
<v Speaker 1>so you never give anyone words of affirmation. I'm the

0:43:46.960 --> 0:43:52.040
<v Speaker 1>most sarcastic, so like biggest pieces. Take that as in like,

0:43:52.680 --> 0:43:54.319
<v Speaker 1>but like the way that I show affection is like

0:43:54.440 --> 0:43:56.680
<v Speaker 1>I'll like be around you and I'll I'll hug you,

0:43:56.840 --> 0:43:59.080
<v Speaker 1>or like I'll bring you places or all get you

0:43:59.160 --> 0:44:03.319
<v Speaker 1>presents like words of affirmation like me telling you that

0:44:03.400 --> 0:44:07.439
<v Speaker 1>you are like my specials person, etcetera, etcetera. Like it's

0:44:07.440 --> 0:44:11.800
<v Speaker 1>just like something about that. It's like give me like shivers. Okay,

0:44:11.800 --> 0:44:13.160
<v Speaker 1>So what you're saying is you've never been in a

0:44:13.200 --> 0:44:17.239
<v Speaker 1>long distance relationship. No, any wrong, Any long distance relationship

0:44:17.560 --> 0:44:20.440
<v Speaker 1>has been the wrong distance relationship. Okay, what about you, Brooks.

0:44:20.920 --> 0:44:23.080
<v Speaker 1>I have been in long I did long distance with

0:44:23.120 --> 0:44:25.400
<v Speaker 1>my wife for three and a half years. I have

0:44:26.040 --> 0:44:28.520
<v Speaker 1>I have a quick question for you, Dean. Do you

0:44:28.640 --> 0:44:32.680
<v Speaker 1>not give words of affirmation? Because words of affirmation to

0:44:32.760 --> 0:44:38.880
<v Speaker 1>you don't matter that much. It's it I haven't. I

0:44:38.880 --> 0:44:41.799
<v Speaker 1>haven't gone to the bottom of why I don't. I'm

0:44:41.840 --> 0:44:44.000
<v Speaker 1>sure you could relate it back to my childhood and

0:44:44.120 --> 0:44:46.400
<v Speaker 1>like perhaps why I didn't get the things that I

0:44:46.440 --> 0:44:49.600
<v Speaker 1>thought that I wanted. Um, I just like it makes

0:44:49.600 --> 0:44:54.120
<v Speaker 1>me cringe, like when yes, I'm in a relationship now,

0:44:54.400 --> 0:44:58.279
<v Speaker 1>and when things are said like oh like baby or

0:44:58.360 --> 0:45:00.680
<v Speaker 1>like the L word, like those types of things that

0:45:00.719 --> 0:45:02.560
<v Speaker 1>like it makes me like shutter a little bit because

0:45:02.560 --> 0:45:05.200
<v Speaker 1>it's like don't I miss you, don't tell me like

0:45:05.239 --> 0:45:08.239
<v Speaker 1>show me, like don't tell me like come here and

0:45:08.280 --> 0:45:10.880
<v Speaker 1>embrace me, come here, and and you know like that

0:45:10.880 --> 0:45:13.200
<v Speaker 1>type of stuff. Yeah, because quite often I think people

0:45:13.360 --> 0:45:15.920
<v Speaker 1>I I until I learned about love languages and you

0:45:16.000 --> 0:45:17.960
<v Speaker 1>learn what you what's important to your partner. You give

0:45:18.000 --> 0:45:20.200
<v Speaker 1>love the way you want to receive love. So I

0:45:20.680 --> 0:45:23.400
<v Speaker 1>was like an acts of service and quality time, So

0:45:23.520 --> 0:45:26.080
<v Speaker 1>I would give love that way because that's what that's

0:45:26.080 --> 0:45:27.799
<v Speaker 1>what I love the most, if somebody to do that

0:45:27.840 --> 0:45:32.680
<v Speaker 1>for me, But my partner maybe doesn't want that, and so, um,

0:45:32.719 --> 0:45:35.400
<v Speaker 1>you know that's maybe why. Maybe his love language and

0:45:35.440 --> 0:45:39.719
<v Speaker 1>this question isn't words of affirmation, so he doesn't give

0:45:39.760 --> 0:45:41.920
<v Speaker 1>it that much because it doesn't matter for him to

0:45:41.960 --> 0:45:44.839
<v Speaker 1>receive it back, but maybe for her it does. I'm

0:45:44.880 --> 0:45:47.320
<v Speaker 1>sure he could probably be better. I've done a long distance,

0:45:47.560 --> 0:45:50.920
<v Speaker 1>a little note or a little anything like, um, I'm

0:45:50.960 --> 0:45:54.080
<v Speaker 1>thinking about you, I miss you, little text, little videos

0:45:54.800 --> 0:45:58.600
<v Speaker 1>your what are your love languages? My mine are quality time?

0:45:59.520 --> 0:46:05.839
<v Speaker 1>Uh um ah, affection, physical touch, quality time, physical touch,

0:46:06.200 --> 0:46:11.439
<v Speaker 1>um and then um access service and your significant other?

0:46:11.640 --> 0:46:13.800
<v Speaker 1>Are they the same or are they different? No? Hers

0:46:13.880 --> 0:46:17.480
<v Speaker 1>is I think quality time and gifts and physical touch.

0:46:17.520 --> 0:46:19.680
<v Speaker 1>So then do you adapt to then getting her gifts

0:46:19.800 --> 0:46:23.800
<v Speaker 1>and physical touch, etcetera. That's like that's you're you're adapting

0:46:23.840 --> 0:46:25.759
<v Speaker 1>to giving her the things that she wants. Yeah, yeah,

0:46:25.800 --> 0:46:27.880
<v Speaker 1>I mean that's the dance. I think what Tastitia was

0:46:27.880 --> 0:46:30.000
<v Speaker 1>talking about earlier in the marriage is you learn that

0:46:30.080 --> 0:46:32.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of stuff, You learn what's important to them because

0:46:32.760 --> 0:46:35.440
<v Speaker 1>giving love the way that you want love isn't the

0:46:35.480 --> 0:46:37.840
<v Speaker 1>way that your partner does, and that that can be

0:46:37.960 --> 0:46:41.880
<v Speaker 1>misconstrued and they can they can actually feel unseen. You know,

0:46:41.920 --> 0:46:44.480
<v Speaker 1>if somebody's giving you, Dean, if somebody's giving you just

0:46:44.560 --> 0:46:46.840
<v Speaker 1>words of affirmation but not spending any time with you

0:46:46.960 --> 0:46:49.800
<v Speaker 1>or not touching you like you're like, she doesn't. She

0:46:49.840 --> 0:46:52.040
<v Speaker 1>doesn't love me, like I feel rejected. She just tells

0:46:52.040 --> 0:46:53.879
<v Speaker 1>me she does, but she doesn't show it. I can

0:46:53.920 --> 0:46:57.160
<v Speaker 1>feed words all day. There's that adult age, old adage.

0:46:57.280 --> 0:46:59.680
<v Speaker 1>Don't treat your neighbor how you want to be treated,

0:47:00.040 --> 0:47:04.960
<v Speaker 1>treat your neighbor how they want to be treating. I

0:47:05.000 --> 0:47:09.160
<v Speaker 1>think this is awesome just because of your lifestyle that

0:47:09.239 --> 0:47:13.720
<v Speaker 1>you kind of don't have many neighbors. What's your throwing

0:47:14.080 --> 0:47:18.719
<v Speaker 1>You're throwing the most awesome neighbor, like he's Wilson from

0:47:18.760 --> 0:47:22.960
<v Speaker 1>next Door on or Tim from Home Improvement. Will you guys,
