8
00:00:37,949 --> 00:00:41,189
Speaker 1: for me thirty seven years, I've been a man, and

9
00:00:41,229 --> 00:00:45,149
Speaker 1: so I understand the brain of the mail.

10
00:00:45,309 --> 00:00:49,189
Speaker 2: So very simple, off and over analyzed. I'm going to say,

11
00:00:49,229 --> 00:00:51,509
Speaker 2: you know, a lot of the time, yes, women who

12
00:00:51,509 --> 00:00:55,589
Speaker 2: often have a much higher IQ. Yes, really read into

13
00:00:55,669 --> 00:00:58,309
Speaker 2: it way too much, read between the lines them. O

14
00:00:58,469 --> 00:01:01,669
Speaker 2: is often very simple, very easy to ascertain.

15
00:01:01,828 --> 00:01:04,509
Speaker 1: Yes. But despite how simple this directive is, I still

16
00:01:04,509 --> 00:01:08,268
Speaker 1: find myself with girlfriends in my life like needing to

17
00:01:08,349 --> 00:01:11,429
Speaker 1: expec lane and decipher messages that they are receiving. They

18
00:01:11,469 --> 00:01:13,589
Speaker 1: can't understand if a guy is keen or not. Yeah,

19
00:01:13,589 --> 00:01:15,429
Speaker 1: but that is exactly what we're doing right now on

20
00:01:15,549 --> 00:01:17,629
Speaker 1: the air. So thirteen one oh sixty five is the

21
00:01:17,709 --> 00:01:20,109
Speaker 1: number you're talking to a block you're keen on, you're

22
00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:21,869
Speaker 1: not sure if they're keen. Give us a call. We'll

23
00:01:21,949 --> 00:01:25,309
Speaker 1: let you know based on the correspondence. We've got Maddie here, Now,

24
00:01:25,509 --> 00:01:28,389
Speaker 1: Maddie to kick off, Let's just get the specks here.

25
00:01:28,469 --> 00:01:31,229
Speaker 1: Who's the guy and how'd you meet him?

26
00:01:32,349 --> 00:01:35,829
Speaker 3: Hey, guys, So what happened was way back in Christmas,

27
00:01:35,909 --> 00:01:38,109
Speaker 3: I messaged out a family friend we hadn't seen in

28
00:01:38,149 --> 00:01:40,869
Speaker 3: a while, just to say like, Merry Christmas and how

29
00:01:40,909 --> 00:01:42,429
Speaker 3: it's been too long we need to catch up. And

30
00:01:42,429 --> 00:01:44,309
Speaker 3: I sent it X in like a friendly sort of

31
00:01:44,309 --> 00:01:47,629
Speaker 3: way right cool, and he replied straight after and was like, yes,

32
00:01:47,669 --> 00:01:49,349
Speaker 3: so it's been way too long. We organized to catch

33
00:01:49,429 --> 00:01:51,469
Speaker 3: up and he sent an X back and since then,

34
00:01:51,549 --> 00:01:53,469
Speaker 3: like my first the EX that I sent was met

35
00:01:53,469 --> 00:01:57,349
Speaker 3: with like friendly intent, like nothing more. But since then

36
00:01:57,389 --> 00:02:00,069
Speaker 3: he's been repeatedly like sending exes at the end of

37
00:02:00,109 --> 00:02:01,869
Speaker 3: his text and we've been like trying to make plans

38
00:02:01,869 --> 00:02:02,269
Speaker 3: and everything.

39
00:02:02,509 --> 00:02:05,949
Speaker 1: Sorry, Maddie, how many x's I reckon?

40
00:02:05,989 --> 00:02:09,229
Speaker 3: It's been at least like five or six since then.

41
00:02:09,269 --> 00:02:10,909
Speaker 3: I've only said that first one at the start. But

42
00:02:10,948 --> 00:02:12,749
Speaker 3: he's like kind of a yeah, you.

43
00:02:12,989 --> 00:02:14,309
Speaker 1: Hang a hand, so when you say, when you're saying

44
00:02:14,309 --> 00:02:16,429
Speaker 1: five or six exes, like he finishes his message with

45
00:02:16,629 --> 00:02:17,949
Speaker 1: five x's.

46
00:02:19,629 --> 00:02:21,949
Speaker 3: On five different occasions.

47
00:02:22,149 --> 00:02:22,629
Speaker 2: One X.

48
00:02:23,309 --> 00:02:25,149
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's sent an X, but then sometimes he'd throw

49
00:02:25,189 --> 00:02:27,429
Speaker 3: with like a couple x's. I don't know, kind of me.

50
00:02:27,469 --> 00:02:29,269
Speaker 3: I feel like he's just being a bit like overboard

51
00:02:29,309 --> 00:02:33,228
Speaker 3: with them, whereas I send the first definitely sort of way.

52
00:02:33,389 --> 00:02:34,668
Speaker 3: Is he game? No?

53
00:02:34,829 --> 00:02:37,429
Speaker 2: Is he gay? No?

54
00:02:37,429 --> 00:02:38,269
Speaker 3: No?

55
00:02:38,549 --> 00:02:40,668
Speaker 2: Do you know that? Oh?

56
00:02:40,829 --> 00:02:42,469
Speaker 3: I mean I'm nineth essential.

57
00:02:43,669 --> 00:02:46,429
Speaker 2: Just because you know, I feel like the gays can

58
00:02:46,429 --> 00:02:48,309
Speaker 2: throw around the exes like a dead.

59
00:02:48,229 --> 00:02:51,029
Speaker 3: Cat and nobody really cares him for years.

60
00:02:51,029 --> 00:02:52,989
Speaker 1: So, Maddie, when you say you've known him for years,

61
00:02:53,069 --> 00:02:55,429
Speaker 1: have you ever have you ever kissed?

62
00:02:56,669 --> 00:02:59,229
Speaker 2: No, you've never kissed. Okay, so you don't know.

63
00:02:59,469 --> 00:03:03,149
Speaker 1: And so but he's he's, Maddie, he's trying to see

64
00:03:03,189 --> 00:03:05,389
Speaker 1: you as well. So these messages wherey where he leaves

65
00:03:05,389 --> 00:03:08,269
Speaker 1: these x's at the end, he's trying to organize catchups

66
00:03:08,309 --> 00:03:09,108
Speaker 1: with you as Yeah.

67
00:03:09,149 --> 00:03:11,309
Speaker 3: Well, the thing is, we've organized dinner for tomorrow night,

68
00:03:11,789 --> 00:03:13,789
Speaker 3: and since that first message, as I said, there've been

69
00:03:13,789 --> 00:03:15,109
Speaker 3: a lot of exos and I'm trying to work out

70
00:03:15,149 --> 00:03:16,669
Speaker 3: like what the vibes are for the.

71
00:03:16,709 --> 00:03:20,349
Speaker 2: Night one on one dinner. Yeah, I look, I see

72
00:03:20,469 --> 00:03:22,629
Speaker 2: I think that. I think the nature of the X

73
00:03:22,669 --> 00:03:25,029
Speaker 2: has changed over time? Can I say it is? I

74
00:03:25,069 --> 00:03:27,189
Speaker 2: think like back whack, when when you and I were

75
00:03:27,189 --> 00:03:29,229
Speaker 2: in high school, if you were messaging a girl, it

76
00:03:29,309 --> 00:03:31,989
Speaker 2: was almost like you had to send an X because

77
00:03:31,989 --> 00:03:33,829
Speaker 2: you were messaging a girl like that. But I think

78
00:03:34,469 --> 00:03:36,989
Speaker 2: as I've got older, that's really changed with the kids.

79
00:03:37,509 --> 00:03:38,349
Speaker 3: I think I.

80
00:03:38,309 --> 00:03:40,189
Speaker 2: Probably only send the next now if I feel very,

81
00:03:40,309 --> 00:03:43,189
Speaker 2: very comfortable that it's a friendship. But I mean I

82
00:03:43,189 --> 00:03:45,669
Speaker 2: would send like analys or live an X because it's like, well,

83
00:03:45,669 --> 00:03:47,549
Speaker 2: it's clear that this is friendly, But as soon as

84
00:03:47,549 --> 00:03:49,589
Speaker 2: there's anything which is on the line, there's no way

85
00:03:49,589 --> 00:03:51,469
Speaker 2: to send the next. So I'm like, oh, either sound

86
00:03:51,509 --> 00:03:53,309
Speaker 2: like a creep or she might be getting the wrong idea.

87
00:03:53,389 --> 00:03:54,749
Speaker 2: How old is this guy, Maddie.

88
00:03:55,589 --> 00:03:58,069
Speaker 3: He's around like mid twenties, so he's.

89
00:03:57,869 --> 00:03:59,909
Speaker 2: Going to be right across that. I reckon. That's kind

90
00:03:59,909 --> 00:04:02,629
Speaker 2: of like, that's kind of standard for the gen zs.

91
00:04:02,709 --> 00:04:03,149
Speaker 2: I reckon.

92
00:04:03,429 --> 00:04:03,869
Speaker 1: I come. I.

93
00:04:04,029 --> 00:04:05,629
Speaker 2: I don't want to speak for your generation out there,

94
00:04:05,629 --> 00:04:07,389
Speaker 2: but you guys are pretty spearing with the X, aren't you.

95
00:04:08,109 --> 00:04:08,549
Speaker 2: I love it?

96
00:04:08,909 --> 00:04:12,509
Speaker 3: He but I also I have the same questions. I'm

97
00:04:12,549 --> 00:04:15,109
Speaker 3: confused as Maddie, because sometimes they can be just a

98
00:04:15,109 --> 00:04:16,748
Speaker 3: bit more than just friendly x's.

99
00:04:16,868 --> 00:04:18,948
Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying though, Like you're not sending an X.

100
00:04:19,549 --> 00:04:21,989
Speaker 2: I'm like, I feel like you guys, you think he's

101
00:04:22,069 --> 00:04:24,629
Speaker 2: keen based on yes, I do. I think he's keen

102
00:04:24,709 --> 00:04:25,029
Speaker 2: or gay?

103
00:04:25,789 --> 00:04:27,749
Speaker 1: Okay, So Mattie, I reckon you just sit down for

104
00:04:27,789 --> 00:04:29,189
Speaker 1: dinner tomorrow? Are you going to go to the dinner?

105
00:04:30,429 --> 00:04:32,789
Speaker 2: We can't rule that out, Like, he could be this

106
00:04:32,869 --> 00:04:34,789
Speaker 2: could be a dinner, Maddie. How long have you known

107
00:04:34,869 --> 00:04:36,189
Speaker 2: him for again, Maddie.

108
00:04:36,269 --> 00:04:39,428
Speaker 3: You know, since we were both about like five or six.

109
00:04:39,509 --> 00:04:41,109
Speaker 2: Or it could be like a coming out dinner. This

110
00:04:41,229 --> 00:04:43,029
Speaker 2: could be like let's catch up. We'd love to see

111
00:04:43,029 --> 00:04:45,069
Speaker 2: you insistent on that because he really wants to bend

112
00:04:45,069 --> 00:04:47,628
Speaker 2: your ear and be like, hey, lookletter tell someone this.

113
00:04:48,109 --> 00:04:48,349
Speaker 1: Wow.

114
00:04:48,869 --> 00:04:50,589
Speaker 2: I mean that's the way to start at Maddie. I'd say,

115
00:04:50,589 --> 00:04:50,909
Speaker 2: sit down.

116
00:04:51,029 --> 00:04:52,309
Speaker 1: Are you going to go to dinner tomorrow night?

117
00:04:52,988 --> 00:04:55,549
Speaker 3: Yeah? Tomorrow night. I'm still trying to decide. Yes.

118
00:04:55,709 --> 00:04:58,189
Speaker 2: Are you can on him? Maddie? Are you can on him?

119
00:04:58,229 --> 00:04:59,509
Speaker 2: Are you keen on him?

120
00:05:00,109 --> 00:05:02,389
Speaker 3: I'm not sure? Yeah, but he's he's hot.

121
00:05:02,669 --> 00:05:05,029
Speaker 1: Sounds like would you be devastated if he was, if

122
00:05:05,069 --> 00:05:06,829
Speaker 1: somebody if he's gay, will that be sad for you

123
00:05:06,909 --> 00:05:07,349
Speaker 1: tomorrow night?

124
00:05:08,389 --> 00:05:11,629
Speaker 3: I mean for years, so like maybe he's like, no.

125
00:05:11,589 --> 00:05:12,989
Speaker 1: It's sad because she can't hook up with him.

126
00:05:12,988 --> 00:05:15,789
Speaker 2: Obviously very happy for him. Let it breathe you might

127
00:05:15,789 --> 00:05:16,909
Speaker 2: do it. Who knows?

128
00:05:17,069 --> 00:05:17,989
Speaker 1: We're not hooking up tonight.

129
00:05:18,029 --> 00:05:22,109
Speaker 2: That's a shame. But have a great love. I don't

130
00:05:22,149 --> 00:05:27,669
Speaker 2: think that's the wait is cute? Are you prepared for that, Maddie?

131
00:05:28,309 --> 00:05:30,189
Speaker 3: I mean, I'm still going to find my outfit. That's

132
00:05:30,229 --> 00:05:33,189
Speaker 3: a nice job. But other than that, we're all pretty good.

133
00:05:33,189 --> 00:05:34,549
Speaker 3: I think I think I'm mentally prepared.

134
00:05:34,669 --> 00:05:36,508
Speaker 2: Okay, good luck, good Maddie.
