Maybe maybe I spoke to 14 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of a joint. 15 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 3: So well, I have a really fun update. So I'm 16 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 3: not sure I remember Wit from our John Lovett episode. 17 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,760 Speaker 3: He was getting serious with his girlfriend and wanted to propose, 18 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:25,840 Speaker 3: but wasn't sure about telling her family that he's trans. 19 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 2: Oh, yes, I remember. 20 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: Yes, we loved Wit, and I think we did update 21 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 3: that they got engaged and that was all very happy. 22 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 3: So I got a very special email this week. This 23 00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:43,399 Speaker 3: email is from Aaron. So Aaron says, Hi, Chelsea, I 24 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:45,440 Speaker 3: couldn't help but think of you and the experience you 25 00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 3: shared with my son Wit when he appeared on the 26 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,040 Speaker 3: Dear Chelsea podcast last year. This is W's mom. I've 27 00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 3: been a longtime listener of Chelsea's podcasts and have enjoyed 28 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 3: her episodes on Netflix and YouTube for years. Whit and 29 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 3: I even Binge watched some of them together when I 30 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: visited him in Montreal. So I was thrilled when Catherine 31 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 3: arranged for Wit to be on the show and have 32 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 3: the chance to ask Chelsea and John questions about his 33 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:09,960 Speaker 3: dating relationship. Shortly after the episode aired, Wit proposed to Anne. 34 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 3: She said yes. The heart of the episode was about 35 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 3: whether Witch should tell Anne's parents that he's trans before 36 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 3: they got engaged. Chelsea and John suggested it really shouldn't 37 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:20,360 Speaker 3: matter either way. As it turns out, Anne's parents are 38 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 3: incredible people. They were extremely understanding and expressed that they 39 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,080 Speaker 3: were honored Wit and shared that part of their story 40 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 3: with them. They emphasized that it didn't change how they felt. 41 00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,919 Speaker 3: It simply didn't matter to them in the best way. 42 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:34,440 Speaker 3: WIT's experience on Dear Chelsea gave him confidence and validation 43 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:37,240 Speaker 3: beyond what I could have imagined. The respect and dignity 44 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 3: Chelsea and John brought to the conversation through their openness, inclusion, 45 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,480 Speaker 3: and compassion was truly refreshing. As WIT's mom, I want 46 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 3: to say how much I appreciate all of you. Today 47 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:49,360 Speaker 3: I'm flying to Montreal for Wit and Anne's wedding, and 48 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: I felt it was the perfect time to reach out 49 00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: and express my gratitude for the kindness you showed warmly. 50 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 2: Aaron, Oh my god, wow. 51 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,760 Speaker 3: I know, it's just like so. 52 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: Big families together. That's what we're doing, keeping families. I 53 00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 1: mean to get a thank you letter from someone's mother, 54 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 1: It's like the best gift ever. 55 00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 3: I know, it's so delightful, So thank you so much 56 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: for writing in. 57 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,799 Speaker 1: And by the way, what a beautiful model and blueprint 58 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,959 Speaker 1: for anyone's Yes, who is dealing with anyone. You know, 59 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: the way that this couple reacted to finding out that 60 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 1: their new son in law is trans is so beautiful, 61 00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: like it has absolutely no impact on them, and then 62 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: they thanked him for sharing something so personal. 63 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: That is how we treat people. 64 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 3: And for Aaron to be obviously this woman who is 65 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 3: has a child who maybe things went a little differently 66 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 3: than expected as. 67 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 4: We grew up. 68 00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 3: But guess what Aaron loves with and you know, is 69 00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 3: accepting and these families have come together and it's just beautiful. 70 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 2: It's just awful. This is the way the world should 71 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: be going around. 72 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:56,080 Speaker 1: Everyone should be accepting of everybody, regardless. 73 00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,720 Speaker 2: Of what anything. 74 00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: You should be able to accept and look at everybody 75 00:03:59,280 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: as a human. 76 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 77 00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 3: Well, Ricky says, you're Chelsea. I've been a fan of 78 00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:11,520 Speaker 3: Chelsea since the Chelsea Lately days. My sister and I 79 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: would chat recapping your hilarious shows often, and we saw 80 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 3: you live in New York many years ago. Anyway, I 81 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:19,040 Speaker 3: recently came across your podcast and have been listening and 82 00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:22,560 Speaker 3: loving hearing the humor that I always enjoyed with my sister. Anyway, 83 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 3: I don't need advice, but I have a ridiculous question. 84 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 3: Pikachu versus kosloppus. Why do you sometimes say one versus 85 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 3: the other? Different words, same meaning or is there more 86 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 3: of a distinction? Just stupidly curious. Thanks Ricky, great question. 87 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: I love it. 88 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: Pikachu is just a softer way to say I feel 89 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: like capis sounds like sloppy sea bass like it sounds 90 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,240 Speaker 1: like fish, you know what I mean. Cais is like 91 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,720 Speaker 1: the Pikachu. It's like, oh, you have a cute little 92 00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: you know, that's nice way to save vagina. It's the 93 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: nicest way to save vagina. Vagina's a terrible word. It's 94 00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:55,600 Speaker 1: not good. 95 00:04:55,880 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 2: And so Pikachu. I don't like the word pussy. 96 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:00,679 Speaker 1: I mean, I like calling men pussies, but white saying, 97 00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:03,600 Speaker 1: you know, come like my pussy? 98 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:05,919 Speaker 2: So gross? 99 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,360 Speaker 1: Should we name this miniesot like come like my I 100 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 1: can't even repeat that, so I'm gonna. 101 00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 3: Have to use too any asterisks if we do that. Yeah, 102 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 3: in our family, it's tooty, but it wasn't when I 103 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 3: was growing up. That came from like my sister's college friend. 104 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: But now we call it a touty. 105 00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: But tuty is a fart also like a toot. You know, 106 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 2: in some families. 107 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 3: It could be when my family growing up, my parents 108 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 3: called it your body, which is very confusing. Like that 109 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 3: is absolutely the wrong, Like call that your body. Oh, 110 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:33,719 Speaker 3: make sure to wash your body. 111 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:35,600 Speaker 2: No, that doesn't work. 112 00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,560 Speaker 3: I don't beaver also, but that's not for you know, 113 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:40,920 Speaker 3: I mean everyday consumption. 114 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 2: It depends. I mean, I guess for me it is. 115 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:44,680 Speaker 1: I can pretty much say, I mean, there's nothing wrong 116 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: with beaver, but actually make a note to myself to 117 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: start using beaver more often. 118 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,279 Speaker 2: Well, our caller today is Liz. 119 00:05:52,960 --> 00:05:55,920 Speaker 3: She says, you're Chelsea. About six months ago, I broke 120 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,760 Speaker 3: up with my first long term boyfriend. He was not 121 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,480 Speaker 3: good for me, and it took me a while to 122 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,919 Speaker 3: realize it. The relationship ultimately ended because he wanted me 123 00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 3: to convert to Catholicism, but truly he wanted my leftism 124 00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:10,039 Speaker 3: politics to more align with his right wing tendencies. Looking back, 125 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,480 Speaker 3: I can now see his behavior was controlling and somewhat 126 00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:15,120 Speaker 3: abusive at times. He was the classic love bomber that 127 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 3: withdrew whenever he couldn't get control of me in some way. 128 00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 3: There were times I'd call him out for attempting to gaslight, verbally, intimidate, 129 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 3: and physically control me. He would always become super defensive 130 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 3: and try to put the blame on my mental state 131 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:29,720 Speaker 3: rather than take responsibility for these things. Needless to say, 132 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,280 Speaker 3: after getting out of that relationship, I've been in somewhat 133 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 3: of an apathetic state about men since the breakup. I 134 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:37,400 Speaker 3: want nothing to do with any characteristic of my ex, 135 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,320 Speaker 3: so I've been mostly going out with guys, knowing that 136 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,320 Speaker 3: it will lead nowhere. Well, I met a really sweet 137 00:06:42,360 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 3: guy on the dating apps. He seems the complete opposite 138 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 3: of my ex. We're politically aligned, share a ton of interests, 139 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: and he puts in a ton of effort. The problem 140 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 3: is I'm not that attracted to him. I totally want 141 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 3: to be, but I've given it a few months and 142 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 3: still feel no attraction to him. My question is, am 143 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:00,640 Speaker 3: I just continuing my patterns of falling for unhealthy relationships 144 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:04,800 Speaker 3: due to my insecure, anxious attachment style. On paper, this 145 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 3: new guy has everything I should be looking for, but 146 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,360 Speaker 3: I can't help a feeling there's a lot of the 147 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 3: chemistry missing. This leaves me thinking about the chemistry I 148 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: had with my ex. I know that relationship wasn't healthy. 149 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: But why do we look back with blinders a feeling 150 00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 3: like that was the relationship that had something When the 151 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 3: new guy on paper looks so perfect? Do you think 152 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:22,480 Speaker 3: I should give up on this new guy and keep 153 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: looking for someone I'm more attracted to. I'm a little 154 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:28,200 Speaker 3: scared that my little self quote unquote is calling the shots. 155 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 3: And the reason I'm not feeling the attraction is because 156 00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 3: I'm still drawn to the avoidant, controlling person. 157 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: Liz Hi, Liz, Hello, Chelsey. 158 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 3: Hi. 159 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:41,080 Speaker 1: Okay, So, first of all, I think you're doing this 160 00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 1: is great.

And 163 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: you understand what you're that you're avoidant, anxious or anxious avoidant? 164 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:52,800 Speaker 2: Is that what yeah, you said. 165 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: Okay, anxious avoidant that you got away from that ex 166 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:59,080 Speaker 1: boyfriend that's over. What you're realizing is that you don't 167 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: have chemistry with this new That's okay.
