00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:01,960
Speaker 1: Who let's do it.

2
00:00:02,000 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 2: My friends accused me of ruining their vacation because I

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,640
Speaker 2: partied too much. Well, I female thirty eight, just got

4
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 2: back from a vacation with two of my longtime friends,

5

Speaker 2: Kate female forty and Mary female thirty eight. I've known

6
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 2: them both since university and we've always been close. The

7
00:00:15,880 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 2: three of us have been planning for this Bali trip

8
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 2: for a few months, along with our husbands and their kids.

9
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 1: Did we cross paths? Were we part of the story?

10
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:27,160
Speaker 3: I also find out the spinster's twenty four that's the cutoff,

11
00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 3: so I just meeting it?

Speaker 2: So they both have children under five years old, while

14
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:38,160
Speaker 2: my husband Jake male forty five, and I are child free.

15
00:00:38,440 --> 00:00:40,600
Speaker 2: We agreed to split the cost of a four bedroom

16
00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,519
Speaker 2: villa three ways, and everything seemed fine at first. Okay,

17
00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: and this comes from why spender and I see you

18
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 2: in the making from our slash better ended updates. So

19
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: Jake and I arrived in Bali earlier than the rest

20
00:00:51,040 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 2: of the group because we had different flights. Once we

21
00:00:53,159 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: had gotten to the villa, we waited to choose the

22
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 2: other rooms with their friends and didn't mind that they

23
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,320
Speaker 2: both chose the ones with in suites. We did have

24
00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: a great time during the trip. Jake and I did

25
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: some couples activities massages, hiking, dinners, but we also spent

26
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 2: time with Kate and Mary and their families. Whenever it

27
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 2: worked for everyone to be nice, I even surprised them

28
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,600
Speaker 2: with massages to give them a break.

29
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 1: That's so sweet.

30
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 3: How consider it?

31
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:16,040
Speaker 1: W friend move w friend.

32
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 2: Only thing that made me uncomfortable was that whenever I

33
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 2: ordered a drink, a cocktail before dinner, a glass of

34
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: wine with meals, I get a comment like, oh, you're

35
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:25,720
Speaker 2: drinking again.

36
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 1: Damn dam oh.

37
00:01:29,120 --> 00:01:30,400
Speaker 3: You're being judgy again.

38
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 2: Oh got them, there's the mirrors.

39
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 1: Come on.

40
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:43,320
Speaker 2: See reflection for context. I'm a social drinker and don't

41
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 2: drink often, but we were on vacation and I.

42
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: Didn't think it was a big deal.

43
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 2: It's nice, it's not, especially since our husbands were drinking too.

44
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:57,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm smelling misogyny, sexism, double standards, the defenders of

45
00:01:57,560 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 3: feminism right again me and and definitely not Sophia, not

Speaker 1: Women right, that's what she's being a man, dude, great.

48
00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:12,440
Speaker 2: Point, Damn whoa or that's feminists, that's great, go us.

49
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 2: I just ignored the comment so I can enjoy the trip.

50
00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 2: On the last night, Jake and I made plans with

51
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: the guys to go out, and Kate and Mary said

52
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:20,959
Speaker 2: that they were going to stay in to pack. Jake

53
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: convinced me to join him, and since it was the

54
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,200
Speaker 2: last night of our vacation, I didn't want to stay

55
00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,399
Speaker 2: in either go out with a bang. We went out

56
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,639
Speaker 2: and had a great time. We got home at one am,

57
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,160
Speaker 2: and I passed out straight afterwards. The next morning was

58
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,640
Speaker 2: a bit chaotic with everyone packing and checking out, but

59
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,160
Speaker 2: we all made it back home without an issue. Right

60
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 2: We had booth business class seats back, so we were

Speaker 2: know what to think. I just saw I was enjoying

146

Speaker 2: haven't responded yet, and my husband has been asking what's

148
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 2: bothering me? But I don't know what to say? Am

Speaker 1: Yeah? This is insane, this is stupid, stupid.

159
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:12,239
Speaker 2: One hope hopeful perspective shift for op is OP should

160
00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 2: cut them off.

161
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,440
Speaker 1: But they did the deed for her.

162
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, they exposed themselves.

163
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:19,800
Speaker 1: They exposed they also think if you.

164
00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,760
Speaker 3: Want to do certain things on a vacation, like if

165
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 3: you have certain ideas, that's fine, tell people be like, hey,

166
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 3: let's do these things.

167
00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: Let's say you don't.

168
00:07:28,200 --> 00:07:33,160
Speaker 3: You don't get to like demand everybody's time on a vacation.

169
00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 3: There are certain times that people want to go off

170
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 3: in link. Yeah, do their own thing. But if you

171
00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 3: want to do certain things together, didn't just say hey,

172
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 3: let's like do you want to go get them to

173
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:46,800
Speaker 3: the beach today and you want to do this today? Communicate?

174
00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 2: You literally can't expect something if you haven't communicated. Yeah,

175
00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 2: that is ridiculous in all scenarios. Always, you cannot expect

176
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: something if you haven't communicated.

177
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 3: And also those are your kids, Those aren't ops kids.

178
00:07:58,760 --> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: Dude, Like is there not?

00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 2: Like there's gotta be there's got to be some sort

00:08:02,680 --> 00:08:06,160
Speaker 2: of like probably super dope like daycare or or something

181
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 2: like that, like one.

182
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:14,320
Speaker 3: Of those playgrounds and like a McDonald's. Yeah, but like awesome, yeah,

183
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 3: and more awesome than that, and.

184
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,680
Speaker 2: Like great people to I have, Like there's so many

185
00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:21,880
Speaker 2: there's so many solutions and reasons why they shouldn't be

186
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 2: putting us on a peak. It's just it's as long

187
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:25,520
Speaker 2: as Santa's list.

188
00:08:25,520 --> 00:08:29,160
Speaker 1: So long as long as Santa's Nazi list. What as

189
00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 1: long as Santa's nazy list.

190
00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:35,240
Speaker 3: Oh I think that was yeah, okay, okay.

191
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: That was intentional. That was intentional. No, that was what

192
00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: that was to wait what we're not going to talk

193
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 1: about it, but it was the naughty list. It was

194
00:08:43,160 --> 00:08:50,080
Speaker 1: a due Yeah. Yeah, I was like, if you play

195
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:53,559
Speaker 1: it back, you'll see it at it. I'm still confused.

196
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: Someone tell me what I did. No, four hours later,

197
00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:58,960
Speaker 1: you just you just need to enunciate more. Yeah, that's

198
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,880
Speaker 1: a naughty.

199
00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:05,160
Speaker 2: Malty, you're getting closer with the accent. But anyways, thank

200
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 2: you Reddit for all your kind words and support and

201
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 2: for hours you're welcome.

202
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,319
Speaker 1: I'm taking myself.

203
00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: Reading through, Reading through the responses and seeing how many

204
00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 2: of you are upset on my behalf has really made

205
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: me reflect on how I initially planned to handle things.

206
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 2: I was going to apologize, don't tell hold off sirs.

207
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: Got nothing to apologize for.

208
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,439
Speaker 2: Hold off sus, thinking that it might be the easiest

209
00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,120
Speaker 2: way to keep the peace. But now I realized that

210
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 2: that might not be the right approach at all.

211
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 3: No, sometimes, like with friends, I think it is sometimes

212
00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,559
Speaker 3: just easier to apologize, even if you don't fully you know,

213
00:09:39,679 --> 00:09:42,200
Speaker 3: think you did anything wrong. But in this case, no.

214
00:09:42,280 --> 00:09:44,520
Speaker 1: Not the case. No, no, no the case.

215
00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: I have also showed my husband Jake the post and

216
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,839
Speaker 2: text message, and he told me to thank you all

217
00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 2: for looking out for me. He's actually pretty angry on

218
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,880
Speaker 2: my behalf about the text message. I showed him some

219
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,960
Speaker 2: of the comments that gave me insight on how my

220
00:09:57,040 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 2: friends may have been feeling, which has given us both

221
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 2: a lot to think about. He asked me what I

222
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 2: wanted to do next and if I wanted him to

223
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:05,280
Speaker 2: respond to my friends.

224
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,240
Speaker 1: For me nice which I appreciated the offer.

225
00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:09,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's a good thing to offer. I told

226
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 2: him I'm still thinking it over. He reassured me and

227
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:13,959
Speaker 2: that he's here for me no matter what, and if

228
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:16,400
Speaker 2: I decide I want him to step in, he's ready

229
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 2: to say something on my behalf w husband move. For now,

230
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 2: I'm going to sleep on it and take some time

231
00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,559
Speaker 2: before I respond or don't respond to the text message.

232
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:26,440
Speaker 2: If I do, I will post an update.

233
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,840
Speaker 1: Again. Thank you all for helping me see things a

234
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:30,800
Speaker 1: bit more clearly. I feel less alone now.

235
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 2: There are relevant comments and an updates.

236
00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,439
Speaker 1: Should we dive right in? Should we just freaking dive right?

237
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,280
Speaker 3: I think I think we've already kind of established that

238
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,200
Speaker 3: she was not at fault. She should not apologize.

239
00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 1: Yep.

240
00:10:44,800 --> 00:10:47,360
Speaker 3: I do think because they are they seem to be

241
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 3: close to enough friends to go on vacation, that she

242
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 3: should give a response.

243
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: Yeah.

244
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's that's the w movie, that's the

245
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 2: good that's the angel moves.

246
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 1: Yeah you know, yeah, so I agree. I agree. I

247
00:10:58,840 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: think it's a move.

248
00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:02,560
Speaker 2: But let's say what happ leband comments Commenter says, not

249
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,640
Speaker 2: the ahle they are one hundred percent jealous. There's a

250
00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,320
Speaker 2: stage in life where child free people do better hanging

251
00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 2: out with other child free people. People with kids can't

252
00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 2: see past their family lives and don't understand why you

253
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,520
Speaker 2: might want to live your life like that.

254
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 1: I've been that soldier.

255
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:24,400
Speaker 2: Whatever about meeting for coffee, lunch, dinner, traveling with them

256
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 2: is an absolute no.

257
00:11:26,480 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 3: I think there is sometimes this kind of judgment from

258
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 3: certain parents, like of non parent friends, of like, oh,

259
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:38,640
Speaker 3: you're not mature, Like when you get to my stage

260
00:11:38,640 --> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 3: in life, then you'll understand, which is not the case.

261
00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 3: You're just doing different things, but you're both the same

262
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:46,720
Speaker 3: presumably the same age.

263
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I cannot stop hanging out with my friends after

264
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:51,480
Speaker 2: I have kids.

265
00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 3: That's yeah, I can't imagine.

266
00:11:53,800 --> 00:11:55,000
Speaker 1: It's too much.

267
00:11:55,160 --> 00:11:57,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, hang out with me with the kids in a

268
00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:00,440
Speaker 2: appropriate because sometimes that can be annoying too.

269
00:12:00,640 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: Yeah.

270
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:03,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'm also prioritizing having some alone time.

271
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 2: But you know, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, a nice little

272
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:07,840
Speaker 2: mix like there's but my kids are.

273
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,520
Speaker 3: Gonna be so freaking Cool's gonna be so freaking cool.

274
00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:12,720
Speaker 4: They're gonna like like Lord of the Rings and they're

275
00:12:12,720 --> 00:12:14,679
Speaker 4: gonna do some cool stuff with that.

276
00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:17,920
Speaker 3: I'm saying, my friends are gonna want to hang out

277
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:21,400
Speaker 3: with my sick kids and they're gonna do with me, and.

278
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:26,840
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna force some literally literally, Sophia's family is

279
00:12:26,880 --> 00:12:30,360
Speaker 2: going to be like, oh, you know, into the Partridge family.

280
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,400
Speaker 1: They're gonna be all hobbits. My family is gonna be

281
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: a hobbit because you want that, I do.

282
00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 3: I do want.

283
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:39,839
Speaker 2: The Partridge Family was like basically what your family will become.

284
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,400
Speaker 2: They had this like really cute van and they would

285
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 2: like travel together and do like little like like little

286
00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:46,840
Speaker 2: shows and stuff like that.

287
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 1: It was like a TV.

288
00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:51,920
Speaker 2: It was a fictitious family but would travel around. It

289
00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,079
Speaker 2: was almost like almost kind of similar to like think

290
00:12:54,120 --> 00:12:56,720
Speaker 2: like the Jackson five of like this family doing these

291
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 2: like you know, day entertainment like yeah, stuff like that.

292
00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 1: So give you pain and see.

293
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:08,040
Speaker 2: Opie says, I think you're right that traveling with them

294
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 2: is an absolute no. I shouldn't have gone on the trip,

295
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:13,280
Speaker 2: and personally, I don't remember them being so judgmental and

296
00:13:13,320 --> 00:13:16,320
Speaker 2: thank you. On the subject of telling your husband, Opie said,

297
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:18,320
Speaker 2: I was going to, but I was worried that he

298
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,719
Speaker 2: might want to talk to their husbands I'm very non

299
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,320
Speaker 2: confrontational and was thinking about just apologizing. Thank you, I

300
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 2: will tell him. A commenter said, get a grip on yourself,

301
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,719
Speaker 2: apologize for what, Opie says Lowell. Given the responses, I

302
00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 2: don't think I will be apologizing. I've realized that they

303
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:38,120
Speaker 2: actually owe me an apology, which is a fact. Fact.

304
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 2: Another commenter, who was downvoted says, it does seem a

305
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 2: bit weird to me that these are your friends of

306
00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:46,480
Speaker 2: fifteen ish years, and yet you choose to spend time

307
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,920
Speaker 2: with them only when it was a group activity. What

308
00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,200
Speaker 2: it would make more sense to me that you would

309
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,320
Speaker 2: want to spend time with them. Go out the three

310
00:13:53,320 --> 00:13:55,720
Speaker 2: of you and leave the men behind, or you just

311
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 2: stay behind when the men went out, you surprise them

312
00:13:58,960 --> 00:14:01,560
Speaker 2: with massages. Did you arrange it for the three of you?

313
00:14:01,720 --> 00:14:03,760
Speaker 2: Or did you just send them off with their husbands?

314
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,760
Speaker 2: Did you babysit you booked separate flights Opie's response that

315
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:11,719
Speaker 2: was also downvoted. We did group activities or I went

316
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 2: out with my husbands. The messages were for the three

317
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 2: of us.

318
00:14:15,080 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 3: No massages.

319
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:18,679
Speaker 2: Oh sorry, the massages were for the three of us,

320
00:14:18,679 --> 00:14:21,080
Speaker 2: so they were all together. No, I did not babysit.

321
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,440
Speaker 2: As you said, these are my girlfriends of about fifteen

322
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:27,240
Speaker 2: plus years. I should have offered a babysit without having

323
00:14:27,240 --> 00:14:31,000
Speaker 2: to be asked that. Thanks for a different pov les agree. Yeah,

324
00:14:31,080 --> 00:14:32,520
Speaker 2: let's talk about that one real quick.

325
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 3: You should not have had to offer to babysit.

326
00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 1: This is your vacation once again.

327
00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 2: This is like you have to communicate the expectations even

328
00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:43,800
Speaker 2: a side of like everything of like they were like, oh,

329
00:14:43,880 --> 00:14:46,480
Speaker 2: did you actually spend any alone time just the three

330
00:14:46,520 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 2: of you? Did you like offer to help all that aside,

331
00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:52,240
Speaker 2: Opie had no idea what they wanted because they literally

332
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 2: didn't communicate it until after the trip.

333
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then they got mad about something that they

334
00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:58,120
Speaker 3: never brought up exactly.

335
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: So it's like the only thing they brought up, which

336
00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,200
Speaker 2: was also so dumb and stupid, was the drinking.

337
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:04,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, And it's like.

338
00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:11,000
Speaker 3: It's not Opie's Opie is a childless adult on purpose, seemingly,

339
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 3: and it is not her responsibility to take care of

340
00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 3: her friend's children. That's just simply not.

341
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:19,520
Speaker 1: Her helping out is going above ye, what is requiring.

342
00:15:19,160 --> 00:15:23,040
Speaker 3: Angel, It should not be expected of her. And also

343
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 3: the comments are saying like oh, why did you go out,

344
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,280
Speaker 3: you know, not with them. They're probably taking care of

345
00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 3: their children at night, and she wants to go out

346
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:31,800
Speaker 3: and like get drinks and stuff.

347
00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,880
Speaker 2: And Opie did say, did clarify that they did to

348
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,360
Speaker 2: group activities for instance of massages, so they did have

349
00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,920
Speaker 2: like alone time quote unquote of the three of them

350
00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 2: spending time together, like the massages that Opie bought and

351
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 2: set up for the three of them. Like that to

352
00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 2: me is like she is still putting time and effort

353
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:54,200
Speaker 2: into their direct friendships with which like that is more

354
00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 2: of a expectation if anything, it's like, oh, hey, we

355
00:15:57,600 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 2: have friends, what's the past behavior of our friendships. We

356
00:16:00,800 --> 00:16:03,680
Speaker 2: are continuing investing in our friendships going forward. That to

357
00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,520
Speaker 2: me makes sense, And it's still Opie I think went

358
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:06,360
Speaker 2: like above.

359
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 1: Just hanging out. I think it's enough.

360
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,960
Speaker 2: But let's get into this next comment comment or ask

361
00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:14,280
Speaker 2: for info. Are they breastfeeding and can't drink? Did they

362
00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 2: expect you to only hang out with them the whole time?

363
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,160
Speaker 2: Which is a good question on expectations. Opie says, No,

364
00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 2: they're not breastfeeding, they just aren't drinkers. To be fair,

365
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:23,680
Speaker 2: I'm not a huge drinker.

366
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:24,160
Speaker 1: Myself.

367
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 2: I think they were looking for us to have more

368
00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:29,480
Speaker 2: time together. You're not a mind reader either, you're not

369
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,600
Speaker 2: a mind reader, and so so what they just get

370
00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:32,960
Speaker 2: to control what you do?

371
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 3: And why is the expectation that you have to set

372
00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:36,040
Speaker 3: everything up?

373
00:16:36,160 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 2: Very true? So true? Yea, so true, Sophia. You have

374
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:41,800
Speaker 2: to eat. I just bought a cow. You have to

375
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 2: eat it.

376
00:16:42,880 --> 00:16:43,320
Speaker 1: You have to.

377
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:47,560
Speaker 2: You want this like friend? You think you respect me

378
00:16:47,640 --> 00:16:48,720
Speaker 2: as a friend if you don't eat the.

379
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: Whole cow that I was trying to full a lot. Guys, look,

380
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 1: I know the cow well too bad.

381
00:16:57,800 --> 00:16:59,800
Speaker 2: Like you just need to like bend your whim to

382
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,840
Speaker 2: like everything I think that you should be doing. You'll do,

383
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:06,080
Speaker 2: thank you finally you said.

384
00:17:05,840 --> 00:17:09,760
Speaker 1: It, but I'll do for you. So a.

385
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:12,120
Speaker 2: Comments are also asked for or info. What were their

386
00:17:12,280 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 2: husbands doing to help with the kids? Great feaking question,

387
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:17,879
Speaker 2: she said, the husbands were drinking and you would have

388
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 2: a drink too. Were the husbands doing fifty percent of

389
00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 2: the childcare? Opie responds, no, my friends were doing the

390
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:27,000
Speaker 2: childcare primarily from what I observed. Asked the freaking husband

391
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:31,879
Speaker 2: who have the child? Literally the responsibility on how much

392
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,480
Speaker 2: Opie drank? I pass out in my bed after a

393
00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 2: night out in heels. We were out to a bar

394
00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 2: until one am, and I was exhausted. I only drink

395
00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:41,200
Speaker 2: as much as I can handle, which is four to

396
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,840
Speaker 2: five cocktails as my max. I'm a woman in her

397
00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,919
Speaker 2: late thirties, I have bad hangovers, so I drink within reason.

398
00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 2: My husband, on the other hand, drinks a lot more

399
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 2: than I can handle. I was curious, like, is this

400
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,679
Speaker 2: is this a case of like, oh, a bad narrator

401
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,720
Speaker 2: and she was actually just getting like super wasted and

402
00:17:55,800 --> 00:17:59,960
Speaker 2: like downplaying it. It seems from that Opie understands her limits,

403
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 2: stays within it, and is being a responsible it ults

404
00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 2: about it.

405
00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:07,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think she's made any you know, she's

406
00:18:07,760 --> 00:18:08,760
Speaker 3: done anything wrong here?

407
00:18:08,920 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: I agree, con car but let's get into the update.

408
00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,320
Speaker 2: Whoa update two days later, piggybacking off the top comment

409
00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 2: because there was an issue with posting an update.

410
00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 1: Here's what happens.

411
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 2: I did speak with my friend Mary on text, and

412
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,040
Speaker 2: she agreed on the most part. They both had a

413
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,879
Speaker 2: problem with me for ages because I invited them to

414
00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:32,600
Speaker 2: or only organized adult only events and nothing family friendly,

415
00:18:32,880 --> 00:18:35,560
Speaker 2: which isn't true. I was the one who organized her

416
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:38,040
Speaker 2: baby shower. I added both of my ex friends to

417
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:40,760
Speaker 2: a group chat to discuss my feelings throughout the interaction.

418
00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,320
Speaker 2: No apology for their passive aggressive comments or even acknowledgment

419
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:46,200
Speaker 2: that I tried to be accommodating.

420
00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:48,280
Speaker 1: I gave them better rooms, organized the.

421
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:51,520
Speaker 2: Massages, kept our shared space organized, and made all the

422
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 2: dinner reservations, helped prep snacks, got gifts for them and

423
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:56,200
Speaker 2: the kids.

424
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,720
Speaker 1: What more can she do? Again? What more?

425
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 3: If they want to hang out with op in like

426
00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 3: a family friendly setting, organize those events like.

427
00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:07,879
Speaker 2: Like they could have said, I feel like during the

428
00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:09,800
Speaker 2: trip once it kind of got to this like.

429
00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 1: Breaking point, which is not a breaking point, but like.

430
00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:14,360
Speaker 2: This point where they were like, hey, we really want

431
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,399
Speaker 2: to do some like hey, let's all go do a

432
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 2: I don't know, a pot clay pot making class together. Yeah,

433
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:21,680
Speaker 2: that's like a family friendly active who can all get

434
00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:23,720
Speaker 2: in on. They got a good top and they're gonna

435
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,880
Speaker 2: be like, hey, I know we've been like just doing

436
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,800
Speaker 2: like adults dinners and stuff. Can we do one those

437
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:29,719
Speaker 2: like the kids can do an activity with us? Like

438
00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:32,679
Speaker 2: I bet oh people are fine? Yeah, like sure, like

439
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,760
Speaker 2: she she probably would have even offered like hey, can

440
00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 2: I be helpful?

441
00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:35,439
Speaker 4: Like?

442
00:19:35,480 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: What can I do?

443
00:19:36,200 --> 00:19:38,960
Speaker 2: Like dude communicate? Mary just said that she's sorry that

444
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 2: has come to this, not an apology, and Kate just

445
00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,000
Speaker 2: ignored me. Even worse, I was so disappointed in these

446
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,400
Speaker 2: women who I thought were my friends. I blocked them

447
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:49,119
Speaker 2: and unfollowed them on social media. I'm gonna share this

448
00:19:49,160 --> 00:19:51,960
Speaker 2: red a post with our mutual friends. Who wants the tea?

449
00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:55,520

00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,080

00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:22,760
