I go to a small gym. I'm friendly. 103 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: A guy asked for my number to chat outside the gym. 104 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,680 Speaker 1: Sometime I'm not interested and I'm also seeing someone else. 105 00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,760 Speaker 1: What do I say the next time I see him? Oh, 106 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: that's hard. 107 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:11,240 Speaker 2: It is hard because you don't want to be mean. 108 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: And then it's like your gym, that's like your safe space, 109 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: and it's like, yeah, you're going there to work out. 110 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: I would just be honest to him. I would say, hey, 111 00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: thank you so much, but I'm actually seeing someone, which 112 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,200 Speaker 1: you are. Then I mean, he can't fault you for 113 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 1: being honest. I think it's worse if you like procrastinate 114 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: and don't just address it, and then you're like dodging 115 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: the times to go to the gym, or if you 116 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: see him, Oh god, that's the worst and you're like 117 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: I gotta leave and no, no, like your routines all 118 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:35,280 Speaker 1: screwed up. 119 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,000 Speaker 3: But also, like you said, you're seeing somebody already, so 120 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 3: that's the best excuse you could have, so that's perfect. 121 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 3: I mean, you are, You're not lying, so don't feel 122 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:44,039 Speaker 3: bad about it. 123 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 2: Thanks, but I'm taking. 124 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, M's three PRIs thought some birthday gifts to 125 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 3: treat yourself. Anything with my face to not make it 126 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,720 Speaker 3: look like I've been hit by a dumb truck. That 127 00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: would be great.

I think 130 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: that I don't necessarily relegate it to it just to 131 00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: a birthday. I think that if you have something big 132 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: happen in your life, I learned a long time ago, 133 00:06:17,360 --> 00:06:20,159 Speaker 1: like if you don't love yourself, no one else will. 134 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,160 Speaker 1: So if something good happens, like treat yourself to it. 135 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 1: Whether that doesn't even have to be something of monetary value, 136 00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,479 Speaker 1: it could be a freaking chocolate cake, whatever it is. 137 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: I think the more you can celebrate yourself, the better. 138 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,440 Speaker 2: On those things. And yeah, do you love it? 139 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:36,040 Speaker 1: All?
