<v Speaker 1>on CADA. Quick question all the dating things to be

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:14.080
<v Speaker 1>fearful of. Why aren't we more scared of theft every day?

0:00:14.120 --> 0:00:19.279
<v Speaker 1>It's ick, red flag heartbreak? What about theft? You're not

0:00:19.280 --> 0:00:21.360
<v Speaker 1>thinking about it enough? You let people into your home,

0:00:21.880 --> 0:00:24.279
<v Speaker 1>You're going into their home. Did you just think about

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.360
<v Speaker 1>this or is this like triggered by something? Oh was

0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:30.720
<v Speaker 1>triggered by something, not a personal experience. A TikTok I

0:00:30.760 --> 0:00:34.240
<v Speaker 1>was just saying, working through something, I'm getting to it, Okay,

0:00:34.400 --> 0:00:37.559
<v Speaker 1>let me cook. Anyway, I did see this girl on TikTok.

0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:39.880
<v Speaker 1>I didn't really follow the story closely because I'm trying

0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:42.880
<v Speaker 1>to mind my business for the sake of my cortosol levels.

0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:45.480
<v Speaker 1>But what I did gather, because it's like a six

0:00:45.520 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 1>part story and it had extra bits and pieces, is

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.000
<v Speaker 1>that a girl went on a date with a guy

0:00:51.280 --> 0:00:53.519
<v Speaker 1>that she matched with on a dating app. But the

0:00:53.560 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 1>reason why it came to be is that they match

0:00:55.400 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>with each other. They didn't talk, maybe had a few

0:00:57.560 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 1>pleasantries exchanged, but they walked past each other on the

0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:03.240
<v Speaker 1>street and he clocked her and said Oh my god, Hey, like,

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>we've matched on an app. We should hang out. So

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:07.479
<v Speaker 1>they agreed to hang out. It's like a meet cute.

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:09.759
<v Speaker 1>Obviously a lot of the details I've missed, but from

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 1>what I can gather, they matched. They went on a date.

0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 1>He came over to her house, and the morning after

0:01:15.560 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 1>she realized that he had stolen her shoes. Not just

0:01:18.120 --> 0:01:22.600
<v Speaker 1>any shoes, Mason Margella tabbies, those shoes that kind of

0:01:22.600 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>look like horse knuckle feet or I am you know,

0:01:27.040 --> 0:01:31.080
<v Speaker 1>fluctuational Japanese tabbies, however you want to call them. Now,

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:34.080
<v Speaker 1>she goes on this rampage to try and get these

0:01:34.120 --> 0:01:37.240
<v Speaker 1>shoes back. She's telling the full story. She's dropped his face,

0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 1>dropped a video of what he looks like, details that

0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 1>he gave her in exchange to her. And as she's

0:01:42.480 --> 0:01:45.120
<v Speaker 1>recalling the red flags and trying to backtrack how it

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 1>possibly happened and at what time, she realized that, of

0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 1>course he took the shoes in the night. But when

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.040
<v Speaker 1>she tried to text him to say hey, like did

0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 1>you steal my things? She didn't have his number anymore.

0:01:56.920 --> 0:01:58.520
<v Speaker 1>She was like, how is it possible that I don't

0:01:58.560 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 1>have your number? Like, when did you get my phone?

0:02:01.280 --> 0:02:04.560
<v Speaker 1>She remembers him insisting that he wanted to share a

0:02:04.600 --> 0:02:06.520
<v Speaker 1>playlist with her, but he wanted to make it on

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:08.840
<v Speaker 1>her phone or share it from her phone straight away.

0:02:09.160 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 1>So while he was there pretending to save a playlist,

0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 1>he deleted his number off her phone. Turns out the

0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:20.360
<v Speaker 1>whole time he had stolen the shoes for his girlfriend.

0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:28.680
<v Speaker 1>What dream guy, Oh, that's amazing. The layers basically, this

0:02:28.760 --> 0:02:31.560
<v Speaker 1>goes viral. It's blowing up. He gets in touch with

0:02:31.600 --> 0:02:34.920
<v Speaker 1>her naturally because obvious reasons, and so she's gone to

0:02:34.960 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 1>meet him, and a friend of hers is filming the interaction.

0:02:38.639 --> 0:02:43.000
<v Speaker 1>Why is he smiling and looking so smug? So smug?

0:02:43.160 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 1>He's like he he he. What was she mad? I mean,

0:02:47.800 --> 0:02:50.360
<v Speaker 1>I think the cloud kind of wore off the anger

0:02:50.440 --> 0:02:53.000
<v Speaker 1>for her, Like she was going viral. People kind of

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:56.040
<v Speaker 1>knew her by face. They were rooting for her, they

0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:59.240
<v Speaker 1>were like abusing him. It was amazing. It was a

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:02.040
<v Speaker 1>cultural moment, if anything, but it led me to the

0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.000
<v Speaker 1>point I don't think enough of us are scared about

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:06.640
<v Speaker 1>dating theft. We're not assuming that when we go to

0:03:06.639 --> 0:03:08.520
<v Speaker 1>someone's house, when they come back to ours, that something

0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:11.119
<v Speaker 1>could go missing, and I think we should be. Yeah,

0:03:11.120 --> 0:03:15.239
<v Speaker 1>I haven't even thought of that, right, And people snoop. Yeah,

0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:17.560
<v Speaker 1>go to a bathroom, snoop, See what's going on there.

0:03:17.600 --> 0:03:20.000
<v Speaker 1>You might look at a bedside table, see what's popping off?

0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:23.079
<v Speaker 1>This one's looked and taken something. Would you look in

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.520
<v Speaker 1>a person's like bedside table if it was open, if

0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:29.360
<v Speaker 1>it was a jar, you know I would pick in.

0:03:29.440 --> 0:03:31.840
<v Speaker 1>Yet I'm more like I'm looking at a bedside table top.

0:03:31.880 --> 0:03:33.480
<v Speaker 1>I do that a lot. Oh, I mean that's like

0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 1>you're inviting. What you put on there is quite intentional.

0:03:35.320 --> 0:03:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Someone say, oh you think, yeah, I've got my little

0:03:38.560 --> 0:03:42.640
<v Speaker 1>lineese lip bomb. What are you intentionally trying to add?

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:47.520
<v Speaker 1>The lewish moisture, cool, calm and collected nice, some other

0:03:47.520 --> 0:03:50.400
<v Speaker 1>things inside the door. They're not for a sleeper. Okay.
