0:00:08.039 --> 0:00:11.479
<v Speaker 2>What an app time to release to you? This TikTok

0:00:11.480 --> 0:00:14.280
<v Speaker 2>from Sof and Rach. It's about five honest questions to

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:17.560
<v Speaker 2>ask yourself if you're unsure about your relationship, Go Go, Go,

0:00:17.560 --> 0:00:17.880
<v Speaker 2>Go Go.

0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:22.200
<v Speaker 3>It says, if you're unsure about your relationship, try asking

0:00:22.239 --> 0:00:26.560
<v Speaker 3>yourself these five honest questions. They have personally helped me

0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:30.440
<v Speaker 3>so much. One if someone told you you're a lot

0:00:30.560 --> 0:00:33.080
<v Speaker 3>like your partner, would this be a compliment to you?

0:00:34.280 --> 0:00:34.560
<v Speaker 1>Two?

0:00:35.440 --> 0:00:42.159
<v Speaker 3>Are you truly fulfilled or just less lonely? Three? Are

0:00:42.200 --> 0:00:45.440
<v Speaker 3>you able to be unapologetically yourself or do you feel

0:00:45.440 --> 0:00:47.239
<v Speaker 3>the need to show up differently to.

0:00:47.240 --> 0:00:48.199
<v Speaker 1>Please your partner?

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:49.720
<v Speaker 4>Four?

0:00:50.280 --> 0:00:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Are you in love with who.

0:00:51.240 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 3>Your partner is right now as a whole? Or are

0:00:54.000 --> 0:00:57.000
<v Speaker 3>you only in love with their good side, their potential

0:00:57.360 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 3>or the idea of them? Five? Would you want your

0:01:01.520 --> 0:01:05.400
<v Speaker 3>future slash imagine child to date someone like your partner?

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:12.160
<v Speaker 5>Oh that if the first four questions were already stressing

0:01:12.200 --> 0:01:17.960
<v Speaker 5>you out, that last one was like the punisher tk out.

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:22.720
<v Speaker 2>It's interesting because I don't know if I'm over the

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 2>belief that if you have to ask you probably know

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.319
<v Speaker 2>the answer. Similar to that song, if you have to ask,

0:01:27.360 --> 0:01:30.480
<v Speaker 2>you can't afford it. There's something about seeking more clarity,

0:01:30.520 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 2>which means that the information you have now is leading

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 2>you to an answer that you don't want to believe.

0:01:35.319 --> 0:01:39.319
<v Speaker 2>The thing is, somebodys aren't that bad. Like if someone's

0:01:39.319 --> 0:01:40.680
<v Speaker 2>told you that you're a lot like your partner, with

0:01:40.760 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 2>this be a compliment, you'd have to ask which bits

0:01:43.600 --> 0:01:45.680
<v Speaker 2>which bits? Because how do you even know that they're

0:01:45.680 --> 0:01:46.880
<v Speaker 2>assessing you correctly?

0:01:47.680 --> 0:01:48.360
<v Speaker 1>You know what I'm saying.

0:01:48.760 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 4>I mean watching the L word and some and the

0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:54.240
<v Speaker 4>this is losbian couple and they're just becoming like each other.

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:55.720
<v Speaker 1>In a good way, in a bad way and in

0:01:55.760 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>what way? Oh they had like a term for it.

0:01:57.640 --> 0:02:04.120
<v Speaker 4>Someone who's listening might know, but last Moss, Yeah, anyway,

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:05.440
<v Speaker 4>I can see that happening. If you have the same

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:08.680
<v Speaker 4>dress and you see couples start dressing like each other, scary.

0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:11.480
<v Speaker 2>It reminds me though, But in friendships, you know, when

0:02:11.480 --> 0:02:13.440
<v Speaker 2>you start using the same language as your friend and

0:02:13.480 --> 0:02:15.519
<v Speaker 2>it feels like a badge of honor, or you get

0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:18.040
<v Speaker 2>them into this artist you really like, or you start

0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:20.920
<v Speaker 2>watching the same TV shows, it feels like sameness in

0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:23.800
<v Speaker 2>friendships is good the best, so why not good in

0:02:23.919 --> 0:02:24.920
<v Speaker 2>romantic relationship?

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 1>It's like we then think of that as pathetic. Okay, Mickey.

0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:36.360
<v Speaker 4>As as the relationship, Girlie, are you like justin?

0:02:36.760 --> 0:02:41.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah? No, I think we've morphed into each other though.

0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:43.360
<v Speaker 2>I think like I've picked up on things like even

0:02:43.440 --> 0:02:45.200
<v Speaker 2>just like saying that I get from you guys.

0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:50.120
<v Speaker 1>I think he does it too, all right redacted? What

0:02:50.160 --> 0:02:54.560
<v Speaker 1>does he say? Redacted? Yeah? Yeah, I do leave me

0:02:54.600 --> 0:02:57.600
<v Speaker 1>out of it a lot, because that's what about.

0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:05.640
<v Speaker 2>Coaching some new life? Are you truly fulfilled or just

0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:08.440
<v Speaker 2>less lonely? This one feels like a trap because I

0:03:08.440 --> 0:03:10.640
<v Speaker 2>don't think the average person really knows what fulfilled it

0:03:10.639 --> 0:03:14.200
<v Speaker 2>looks like, and we are looking for like outside validation

0:03:14.320 --> 0:03:16.480
<v Speaker 2>to figure that out, Like, how do you really know

0:03:16.520 --> 0:03:19.360
<v Speaker 2>how happy you are unless you've seen happiness in front

0:03:19.400 --> 0:03:23.079
<v Speaker 2>of you? How creative do you know you are if

0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:25.120
<v Speaker 2>you're not surrounded by other creative people?

0:03:25.880 --> 0:03:27.799
<v Speaker 1>So this one feels like the only answer is less

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:29.120
<v Speaker 1>lonely you.

0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:31.760
<v Speaker 6>Once you do the HC analysis and once you really

0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:35.560
<v Speaker 6>unpack the sentence that it feels like it's leading to

0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:37.839
<v Speaker 6>one place, and then what is the issue of being

0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:40.120
<v Speaker 6>less lonely, Like, why can't that be a good reason

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 6>to like be near someone?

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:44.920
<v Speaker 4>Nah, I think that can be a bad reason because

0:03:44.920 --> 0:03:46.560
<v Speaker 4>then you think you less only but you're actually more

0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:48.280
<v Speaker 4>lonely because you're with someone that's not suitable.

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:50.880
<v Speaker 2>But that's the thing, right, oh, because yeah, this is

0:03:50.880 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 2>not just generally, this is if you're not sure about

0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:54.760
<v Speaker 2>the relationship. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:03:54.760 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>Okay.

0:03:55.120 --> 0:03:58.040
<v Speaker 4>Number three, are you able to be unapologetically yourself or

0:03:58.080 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 4>do you need to show up differently to please you?

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:00.880
<v Speaker 4>Partner's a bit of me, a little bit of the

0:04:01.480 --> 0:04:04.040
<v Speaker 4>funny with the girls, cute and sexy with the boys,

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:07.080
<v Speaker 4>the tailor's oldest time myself in my experience.

0:04:07.560 --> 0:04:11.200
<v Speaker 1>But I've stopped doing that completely, he said, fisted up.

0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:12.160
<v Speaker 1>When will you bring it back?

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 4>Are?

0:04:15.720 --> 0:04:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Is it like a Q one four or a Q four?

0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:21.679
<v Speaker 4>I went through my He's just not that into your face.

0:04:22.200 --> 0:04:24.479
<v Speaker 2>You know when you we first read it and you're like, yep,

0:04:24.560 --> 0:04:26.440
<v Speaker 2>this book really hits, and then you had a stage

0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:28.159
<v Speaker 2>you're like, maybe it doesn't really hit. Where are you

0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.800
<v Speaker 2>now in terms of where that fits because some of

0:04:30.839 --> 0:04:33.200
<v Speaker 2>the points you made you felt quite strongly about.

0:04:34.920 --> 0:04:39.520
<v Speaker 4>Honestly, there's face in my life that I must associate.

0:04:38.960 --> 0:04:42.159
<v Speaker 1>From because I we just got here.

0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:47.200
<v Speaker 4>I seriously shocked myself, guys, and that's probably one of them,

0:04:47.240 --> 0:04:49.000
<v Speaker 4>that he's just not that into your era.

0:04:49.160 --> 0:04:50.960
<v Speaker 1>What do you mean you shocked yourself because I.

0:04:50.920 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 4>Got really into it, Like I think, I'm I never

0:04:53.400 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 4>thought I could be into prop propaganda.

0:04:55.440 --> 0:04:58.600
<v Speaker 1>But you want to repeat that sentence.

0:05:00.200 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 2>You through me, never thought you could be interproper cant.

0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:09.400
<v Speaker 2>You just called yourself the poster childs the naughty as

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:10.560
<v Speaker 2>if that wasn't.

0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:17.799
<v Speaker 4>Babe, he's coming from inside the houseboys, No, I reckon

0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:21.040
<v Speaker 4>like being unapologetically yourself. You taught me this, FLEXI some

0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:22.720
<v Speaker 4>things you got to leave out of the relationship. No

0:05:22.839 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 4>farting with the door open, et cetera, in your experience.

0:05:25.560 --> 0:05:28.200
<v Speaker 2>Unless it's you think it's a cornerstone of comfort, you know.

0:05:29.000 --> 0:05:31.480
<v Speaker 2>But I think we have to assess which bits are

0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 2>actually necessary in our expression of ourselves and.

0:05:34.400 --> 0:05:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Which are over compensating.

0:05:35.760 --> 0:05:37.320
<v Speaker 2>Like I feel like a lot of people who do

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 2>the public public fart thing are trying to present as

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:45.320
<v Speaker 2>open people as opposed to just being open people. I

0:05:45.360 --> 0:05:47.240
<v Speaker 2>don't know, I don't know. Maybe it's just my experience.

0:05:48.000 --> 0:05:49.920
<v Speaker 2>This one is a really great one. If you could

0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:52.279
<v Speaker 2>delete the first three, I'd say delete them, we don't

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:53.640
<v Speaker 2>really need them, but this one.

0:05:54.000 --> 0:05:55.599
<v Speaker 1>Are you in love with who your partner.

0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:58.880
<v Speaker 2>Is right now as a whole, or are you only

0:05:58.880 --> 0:06:01.760
<v Speaker 2>in love with their goods side, their potential or the

0:06:01.800 --> 0:06:02.360
<v Speaker 2>idea of them.

0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.360
<v Speaker 1>I can't get away from potential. I love it. I

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 1>love it.

0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:10.200
<v Speaker 4>You think there's some potential, right, it's like buying you don't. Actually,

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:13.159
<v Speaker 4>it's like buying a renovated house, but they're renovated in

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:14.839
<v Speaker 4>ugly ways, so you don't want to spend.

0:06:15.000 --> 0:06:15.640
<v Speaker 1>But this is the thing.

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.560
<v Speaker 2>A lot of people who have aspirations to renovate never

0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:20.520
<v Speaker 2>end up doing it because it's too expensive, or they

0:06:20.520 --> 0:06:22.919
<v Speaker 2>can't get their vision aligned, or they can't you know,

0:06:22.920 --> 0:06:24.880
<v Speaker 2>they can't find the materials the tradesmen, and then you

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:26.039
<v Speaker 2>just end up living in the house.

0:06:26.480 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 1>Or similarly, people who say, oh.

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:30.040
<v Speaker 2>You know, want to be bad at my parents' home,

0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:32.040
<v Speaker 2>We're going to decorate my house just like I want to,

0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:33.839
<v Speaker 2>And then you live in the house for five years

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:36.680
<v Speaker 2>and it still looks like okay, mart starter pack with

0:06:36.720 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 2>none of your personality in it.

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:39.440
<v Speaker 4>Not the starter pack.

0:06:40.080 --> 0:06:41.800
<v Speaker 1>It's no shade it's just something there.

0:06:42.880 --> 0:06:44.920
<v Speaker 2>So maybe we are wrong and you have to love

0:06:45.080 --> 0:06:48.520
<v Speaker 2>your partner who they are right now, scared with no changes?

0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:51.000
<v Speaker 1>Do we love anything with no changes?

0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:55.120
<v Speaker 2>I can say, hand on heart, I love capitano vocapasta,

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 2>no changes.

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:59.440
<v Speaker 4>I can say, hand on heart. I quick became fresh

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:03.360
<v Speaker 4>off the surveiller belt in Cranburn.

0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:08.520
<v Speaker 1>Which belt the conveiler belt? Whatever? Number five? Would you

0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:09.120
<v Speaker 1>like your.

0:07:09.040 --> 0:07:12.360
<v Speaker 4>Future or imagine child to date someone like your partner?

0:07:13.680 --> 0:07:14.960
<v Speaker 1>Because why am? I kinda like?

0:07:15.000 --> 0:07:15.200
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Why not? I would say that about that great taste.

0:07:18.640 --> 0:07:19.200
<v Speaker 1>I would say it.

0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 4>About my last partner. If I had a son that

0:07:21.360 --> 0:07:22.800
<v Speaker 4>was like my last partner, I'd be like.

0:07:22.800 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 2>No, we're not saying to date someone like them? Oh yeah,

0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:27.800
<v Speaker 2>I want my little daughter d why not?

0:07:28.560 --> 0:07:28.960
<v Speaker 1>Lovely guy?

0:07:29.000 --> 0:07:31.280
<v Speaker 2>I think maybe that's where they're getting us, the contradiction

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 2>between do you love.
