WEBVTT - ASK UNCUT... Will you pee on me? 

0:00:19.560 --> 0:00:22.279
<v Speaker 1>Hi guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life

0:00:22.280 --> 0:00:22.720
<v Speaker 1>One Cut.

0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:24.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm Brittany and I'm Laura, and.

0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:26.280
<v Speaker 3>This sick is our Thursday episode.

0:00:26.280 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 1>This is our dark and dirty and sexy, saucy little episode.

0:00:29.840 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 3>But we answer your deep, dark and burning questions.

0:00:32.880 --> 0:00:34.960
<v Speaker 2>And now, look, we have been keeping it pretty dirty lately,

0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:36.120
<v Speaker 2>so I think we're going to keep this one a

0:00:36.159 --> 0:00:38.080
<v Speaker 2>little bit more above board. I think we've been taking

0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 2>our intro too seriously because the last few weeks have

0:00:40.760 --> 0:00:42.280
<v Speaker 2>been pretty questionable.

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:43.199
<v Speaker 3>I can't even.

0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:45.840
<v Speaker 1>Remember the questions that we answered last week, to be honest, neither,

0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:49.000
<v Speaker 1>but I just know our vibe. Also, I'm just gonna

0:00:49.000 --> 0:00:51.840
<v Speaker 1>like apologize right now if anyone can hear what sounds

0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:57.560
<v Speaker 1>like a pterodactyl going, yeah, it's not Matt, it's actually Lola.

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>She's don't worry, she's being supervised by Matt. She's just

0:01:00.880 --> 0:01:03.040
<v Speaker 1>outside the door screaming. At the moment, she's figured out

0:01:03.040 --> 0:01:05.080
<v Speaker 1>how to crawl and she's trying to get in here

0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:05.960
<v Speaker 1>and get on the podcast.

0:01:06.000 --> 0:01:06.479
<v Speaker 3>But that is.

0:01:06.440 --> 0:01:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Lockdown life, isn't it. You can't even apologize for that now,

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:11.319
<v Speaker 2>because literally, you haven't left your house in three months.

0:01:11.440 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 2>You live with two kids in a two bedroom house.

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:14.960
<v Speaker 3>Can we call it lockdown life?

0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:15.040
<v Speaker 2>Like?

0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 3>I mean? It feels like the never ending saga. It's

0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 3>just his life. I kin't of even mad at her.

0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm currently hidden in her bedroom recording She's just trying

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>to get into where her toys are.

0:01:23.120 --> 0:01:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Hang on, is it Lola or Marley crying?

0:01:24.959 --> 0:01:25.760
<v Speaker 3>It's Lola.

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 1>H Who knows who's counting anymore. Someone's out there with

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 1>them and that's all that matters. I wanted to kick

0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 1>out today with an article.

0:01:35.160 --> 0:01:37.760
<v Speaker 2>That we have had a very good chuckle over and

0:01:37.800 --> 0:01:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if we should be laughing, but hey,

0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:42.679
<v Speaker 2>everyone else is. It seems to be trending. It is

0:01:42.720 --> 0:01:47.160
<v Speaker 2>about the term soaking. Now, I had never heard of

0:01:47.319 --> 0:01:49.880
<v Speaker 2>soaking in sex before ever? Had you?

0:01:50.120 --> 0:01:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I had never heard about it, but I'm very, very

0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 1>glad that this has come into my life.

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 2>So if you guys haven't heard of soaking. Essentially, if

0:01:58.200 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 2>you don't know much about Mormon, Mormons don't have sex

0:02:01.600 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 2>before marriage. They're also not supposed to engage in sexual

0:02:05.480 --> 0:02:09.880
<v Speaker 2>or overt passionate kissing or touching or anything of that nature.

0:02:09.880 --> 0:02:11.919
<v Speaker 2>They're supposed to save themselves for marriage.

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:12.760
<v Speaker 3>But isn't it that.

0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:15.600
<v Speaker 1>Mormons aren't allowed to engage in like really sexual kissing

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:19.160
<v Speaker 1>or like passionate displays of affection because of the potential

0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 1>of it leading into more and therefore turning into the sex,

0:02:22.320 --> 0:02:23.920
<v Speaker 1>and we're trying to avoid that from happening.

0:02:24.120 --> 0:02:25.959
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure if that's the exact reason, if it's

0:02:26.000 --> 0:02:27.920
<v Speaker 2>so it doesn't lead to sex, or if it's just

0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.240
<v Speaker 2>that these things are sacred and supposed to be for

0:02:30.320 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 2>your partner. But I know that oral sex, masturbation, passionate kissing,

0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:38.080
<v Speaker 2>and erotic touching are all very strictly banned unless you're married,

0:02:38.120 --> 0:02:40.280
<v Speaker 2>So that is definitely all of those things are a

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:42.240
<v Speaker 2>no go. You are not allowed to do that.

0:02:42.680 --> 0:02:42.840
<v Speaker 1>Now.

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.400
<v Speaker 2>The reason why we're talking about this is it is trending.

0:02:45.480 --> 0:02:47.920
<v Speaker 2>It is all over TikTok because a bunch of teenagers

0:02:47.919 --> 0:02:51.640
<v Speaker 2>have finally outed what soaking is, because apparently it's been

0:02:51.680 --> 0:02:53.600
<v Speaker 2>around for a long time, but it's a bit hush hush,

0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:55.960
<v Speaker 2>especially in the Mormon world. A lot of people do it,

0:02:56.000 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 2>but no one wants to put their hand up and say, hey,

0:02:57.760 --> 0:03:01.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm a soaker, but what what it is? It's their

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 2>way around not being able to have sex. So they've

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:08.400
<v Speaker 2>come up with this thing where the penis goes into

0:03:08.480 --> 0:03:09.040
<v Speaker 2>the vagina.

0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:11.440
<v Speaker 1>So the man puts you laying in bed. You can't

0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:13.520
<v Speaker 1>you're just laying down on your back. The man puts

0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:14.480
<v Speaker 1>his penis.

0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 2>In the vagina and then nothing freeze frame. You have

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:19.560
<v Speaker 2>to you play that game statue, so you have to.

0:03:19.639 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 2>It's also called it has other names. It's called parking,

0:03:22.520 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 2>but you essentially just have to put the dick in

0:03:24.800 --> 0:03:26.240
<v Speaker 2>the vagina and not move.

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:26.799
<v Speaker 3>Now.

0:03:26.840 --> 0:03:32.400
<v Speaker 2>I am sorry, but this this has so many questions

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:36.000
<v Speaker 2>for me. A. I don't know if my sex education

0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 2>was wrong, but I'm pretty sure a penis in the

0:03:37.680 --> 0:03:40.160
<v Speaker 2>vagina is sex. Like that is breaking a barrier. The

0:03:40.160 --> 0:03:43.520
<v Speaker 2>barrier is called the hymen. That is two physical bodies touching.

0:03:44.200 --> 0:03:46.080
<v Speaker 2>To me, that sex. And I don't see how you're

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:49.320
<v Speaker 2>allowed to soak or park if you're not allowed to

0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.040
<v Speaker 2>passionately kiss like what is I don't know if they're

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 2>reasoning is accurate.

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.760
<v Speaker 3>There's okay, there's a few things here I want to unpack. Firstly,

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 3>thanks for the sex education, Brittany.

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:01.120
<v Speaker 1>It's very accurate and also okay, there are so many

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:03.360
<v Speaker 1>different things that constitute what make up sex. Like it

0:04:03.360 --> 0:04:05.160
<v Speaker 1>doesn't even just have to be the penis in the

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 1>We don't even need to tell you, guys.

0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:08.480
<v Speaker 3>You guys know what sexy is. I'm sure you're all.

0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:10.920
<v Speaker 1>Listening to this thinking that this is just as fucking

0:04:10.920 --> 0:04:13.920
<v Speaker 1>weird as we are. But like, imagine, imagine if a

0:04:14.000 --> 0:04:16.760
<v Speaker 1>guy put his penis inside you and then was like

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:21.400
<v Speaker 1>hold the fuck stell like just don't move, like, no wiggling,

0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:24.960
<v Speaker 1>no nothing, just two people in missionary position, laying on

0:04:24.960 --> 0:04:28.160
<v Speaker 1>top of each other still for three minutes or two

0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.200
<v Speaker 1>minutes or however long they can withstand it, and then

0:04:30.279 --> 0:04:30.599
<v Speaker 1>that's it.

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:33.280
<v Speaker 3>Withdraw What do you get out of it?

0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:36.320
<v Speaker 2>Well, I guess, I mean, I guess there's a feeling

0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:39.839
<v Speaker 2>of closeness because you feel like that special connection because

0:04:39.839 --> 0:04:42.840
<v Speaker 2>we know, we know on dolphins release when we have sex,

0:04:42.839 --> 0:04:44.560
<v Speaker 2>when we had that intimacy with someone, which is why

0:04:44.560 --> 0:04:47.640
<v Speaker 2>it's so hard to maintain a strictly friends with benefits

0:04:47.680 --> 0:04:50.040
<v Speaker 2>relationship where women especially are like, I'm not going to

0:04:50.080 --> 0:04:51.719
<v Speaker 2>get feelings. I'm not going to catch feelings the second

0:04:51.720 --> 0:04:53.920
<v Speaker 2>you have sex like bam, let's spoon and get married

0:04:53.960 --> 0:04:55.920
<v Speaker 2>like it is what it is. But I think that this,

0:04:56.440 --> 0:04:58.640
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a feeling of closeness and connection and

0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 2>like they're taking the next step without doing the wrong

0:05:02.080 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 2>thing in the eyes of you know, they're religion.

0:05:04.760 --> 0:05:07.320
<v Speaker 1>This just so fully threw me back into like my

0:05:07.720 --> 0:05:10.440
<v Speaker 1>teenage years, and I feel like everyone's going to relate

0:05:10.480 --> 0:05:14.000
<v Speaker 1>to this when you're want to hear what you're gonna

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:17.080
<v Speaker 1>say teenage laure is so awkward, and I feel so

0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:19.599
<v Speaker 1>awkward for her talking about this that when you like

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>very first kind of got into figuring out sex. You're dating,

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 1>like you're a super horny teenager in your early twenties and.

0:05:27.920 --> 0:05:29.040
<v Speaker 3>You're hooking up with a guy.

0:05:30.080 --> 0:05:32.880
<v Speaker 1>You're not actually having sex, but like maybe they still

0:05:32.880 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 1>have their underwear on, or you have your underwear on,

0:05:34.640 --> 0:05:37.240
<v Speaker 1>and you're it's like you're pretty much having sex, but

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:39.360
<v Speaker 1>you're wearing underwear. Like there might be in by like

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:41.480
<v Speaker 1>three centimeters, but you're wearing underwear, so.

0:05:41.440 --> 0:05:44.240
<v Speaker 2>It's fine, really hard they're in Vice three and four.

0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 3>Am I alone here?

0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:48.960
<v Speaker 1>Or did we all do this like just dry humping

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:51.039
<v Speaker 1>to the point where you're like pretty much just having

0:05:51.120 --> 0:05:52.920
<v Speaker 1>sex but it's not sex. Well, yeah, that's when you're

0:05:52.960 --> 0:05:54.960
<v Speaker 1>young and you're not ready to take the next moved,

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:56.080
<v Speaker 1>but you're like, this feels good.

0:05:57.640 --> 0:05:58.599
<v Speaker 3>But that makes me.

0:05:58.960 --> 0:06:01.080
<v Speaker 2>That literally makes me and I feel like there's not

0:06:01.080 --> 0:06:03.440
<v Speaker 2>gonna be anyone listening to this that didn't experience that.

0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:06.520
<v Speaker 1>See, not alone, Laura, except as a mom to two girls.

0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 1>It makes me feel so uncomfortable, Like I just wow,

0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:11.000
<v Speaker 1>we did it.

0:06:11.040 --> 0:06:12.000
<v Speaker 3>We all did it, guys.

0:06:12.440 --> 0:06:15.719
<v Speaker 1>I can kind of understand why this terminology has come up.

0:06:15.760 --> 0:06:18.040
<v Speaker 1>I can understand why they're pushing the boundaries as far

0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:20.800
<v Speaker 1>as they possibly can, especially when this is happening in

0:06:20.880 --> 0:06:23.600
<v Speaker 1>like Mormon universities, and like we all know what it's

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.719
<v Speaker 1>like to go to UNI, to live on campus, to

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:28.440
<v Speaker 1>run around and be crazy and in our wild youths.

0:06:28.560 --> 0:06:29.840
<v Speaker 1>That there is more to the story.

0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, there are some other quotes before we get into

0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:33.480
<v Speaker 2>the next part of the story, because the next part

0:06:33.480 --> 0:06:35.320
<v Speaker 2>of the story is like what I find the fucking

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:38.720
<v Speaker 2>funniest Like this, it's so beyond anything I could imagine

0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:41.120
<v Speaker 2>was real life. But there are some quotes for us

0:06:41.160 --> 0:06:44.440
<v Speaker 2>from some soakers, like some first class socus.

0:06:44.040 --> 0:06:46.240
<v Speaker 3>Some hardcore soakers, some hardcore soakers.

0:06:46.320 --> 0:06:48.160
<v Speaker 2>The first time we soaked, we were on the floor

0:06:48.200 --> 0:06:50.080
<v Speaker 2>of my living room and she just asked me to

0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.640
<v Speaker 2>put it in, but not to move it around. I

0:06:52.640 --> 0:06:55.520
<v Speaker 2>guess she wanted to push her virginity as far as

0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:59.240
<v Speaker 2>her sensibilities would allow. Now this just shows me that

0:06:59.320 --> 0:07:00.720
<v Speaker 2>teenagers of all motherfuckers.

0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:05.080
<v Speaker 1>There is another quote from this article which I want

0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:06.600
<v Speaker 1>to read out to you guys, And it was there

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.120
<v Speaker 1>was always squirming on both of our parts, but never

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.560
<v Speaker 1>any real thrusting. And I guess swirming maybe technically moving,

0:07:12.720 --> 0:07:15.040
<v Speaker 1>but it wasn't like the preacher was there refing the event.

0:07:15.400 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 3>I was inside her. It felt good and sometimes we

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:18.120
<v Speaker 3>would kind of.

0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 1>Grind involuntarily, though it was torturous for both them. I mean,

0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, but you had sex, but it was going

0:07:25.080 --> 0:07:27.840
<v Speaker 1>as far as we could justify before breaking the rules.

0:07:28.040 --> 0:07:29.000
<v Speaker 3>This is wild.

0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:31.680
<v Speaker 1>The thing that makes this so much crazier is the

0:07:31.720 --> 0:07:35.520
<v Speaker 1>fact that Mormon sex is getting airtime purely because of TikTok,

0:07:35.600 --> 0:07:38.320
<v Speaker 1>and TikTok is of sharing tactics used to get around

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:41.080
<v Speaker 1>what the chastity rules are, so to teach other Mormons

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:43.520
<v Speaker 1>what they can and can't do and how they can

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:46.000
<v Speaker 1>be intimate without being overly intimate.

0:07:46.080 --> 0:07:48.280
<v Speaker 3>Now there's more to this, Brittany, if.

0:07:48.200 --> 0:07:50.160
<v Speaker 2>You'd like to share it, with them, it gets so

0:07:50.240 --> 0:07:53.040
<v Speaker 2>much more wild. This is probably my favorite part because

0:07:53.040 --> 0:07:56.000
<v Speaker 2>I love their creativity. Now because they're not allowed to

0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.280
<v Speaker 2>have sex, they're allowed to thrust. They have come up

0:07:58.280 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 2>with a term or an activity call jump pumping. Now,

0:08:02.440 --> 0:08:04.680
<v Speaker 2>jump upping is where you have to have a very

0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:07.560
<v Speaker 2>trusty friend or relative or whoever you're going to use.

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:09.560
<v Speaker 2>Maybe it's a sister, maybe it's best friend, maybe it's

0:08:09.560 --> 0:08:12.200
<v Speaker 2>someone that's in your dorm with you. But this is

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.600
<v Speaker 2>where you call your friend when you want to soak

0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:17.240
<v Speaker 2>with your partner. So you want to have this intimacy

0:08:17.280 --> 0:08:19.680
<v Speaker 2>with your partner, but you want to have that little

0:08:19.720 --> 0:08:22.040
<v Speaker 2>bit more, so you get your friend to come over.

0:08:23.040 --> 0:08:25.200
<v Speaker 2>You're laying on the bed like the couple is laying

0:08:25.240 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 2>on the bed soaking, and then the friend or the

0:08:29.080 --> 0:08:33.520
<v Speaker 2>dedicated jump umper stands on the mattress like a foot

0:08:33.559 --> 0:08:37.200
<v Speaker 2>away and jumps really erratically so that your body starts

0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:39.320
<v Speaker 2>to move and get friction as you're soaking, and that

0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:41.480
<v Speaker 2>way you get the feeling. But you're not in the

0:08:41.480 --> 0:08:44.240
<v Speaker 2>wrong because you're not making you do it. You're not thrusty,

0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:46.120
<v Speaker 2>and it's the friction from the person jumping on the

0:08:46.120 --> 0:08:49.000
<v Speaker 2>bed and I am sorry, but this has just absolutely

0:08:49.400 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 2>made my day. There's videos, so this has gotten like

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty three million hashtags on TikTok. This is why it's

0:08:55.040 --> 0:08:58.040
<v Speaker 2>viral because a girl put a video of herself up

0:08:58.080 --> 0:09:00.000
<v Speaker 2>doing it to her friend. She's on the bed jump

0:09:00.040 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 2>and you can see it on TikTok, the coupler under

0:09:02.080 --> 0:09:04.000
<v Speaker 2>the covers, soaking, and she said, this is what I

0:09:04.040 --> 0:09:05.439
<v Speaker 2>have to do. My friend called me and said it's

0:09:05.440 --> 0:09:06.840
<v Speaker 2>time to soak, It's time to jump home.

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:08.560
<v Speaker 3>I'm like, who gets.

0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:10.680
<v Speaker 2>The metal here? Surely the friend like she has taken

0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:11.440
<v Speaker 2>one for the team.

0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:13.880
<v Speaker 1>You have to like, I mean, one, you've got a

0:09:13.880 --> 0:09:16.040
<v Speaker 1>friend in the room with you whilst you're pretty much

0:09:16.040 --> 0:09:18.960
<v Speaker 1>having sex. But because they obviously so fundamentally believe that

0:09:18.960 --> 0:09:21.720
<v Speaker 1>they're not having sex, that it's okay to have a

0:09:21.720 --> 0:09:23.160
<v Speaker 1>friend in the room at the same time.

0:09:23.640 --> 0:09:26.400
<v Speaker 3>Just so fucking crazy. Laura.

0:09:26.480 --> 0:09:28.520
<v Speaker 2>If you've got a call from me one day and

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:31.040
<v Speaker 2>I was like, sos, I'm soaking, I need to hear

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:32.640
<v Speaker 2>a sat to jump hump, I would do it.

0:09:32.679 --> 0:09:34.040
<v Speaker 3>I would jump on the bed next to you in

0:09:34.080 --> 0:09:34.440
<v Speaker 3>short it.

0:09:34.600 --> 0:09:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Yes, absolutely friends too.

0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:41.640
<v Speaker 1>I would jump on that bed as hard and as

0:09:41.720 --> 0:09:44.000
<v Speaker 1>vigorously as you needed to make sure that you were

0:09:44.000 --> 0:09:44.760
<v Speaker 1>having a good time.

0:09:45.000 --> 0:09:47.959
<v Speaker 3>That's what I would do. But also who has the

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:48.920
<v Speaker 3>self control?

0:09:49.240 --> 0:09:51.600
<v Speaker 1>Like, surely if there's such horny like twenty year olds

0:09:51.720 --> 0:09:55.480
<v Speaker 1>or nineteen year olds, however old these people are. Surely

0:09:55.600 --> 0:09:59.160
<v Speaker 1>if the guy is inserting himself and then somebody is

0:09:59.240 --> 0:10:02.080
<v Speaker 1>jumping on the bed next to them, I'm gonna say

0:10:02.080 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 1>that there's a few accidents. I'm gonna say he probably

0:10:04.640 --> 0:10:06.480
<v Speaker 1>gets a bit excited and might let it off the

0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:10.480
<v Speaker 1>looser prematurely, someone might think, and then what happens, Well.

0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't think they're allowed to because you know, they're

0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.080
<v Speaker 2>not allowed to masturbate. So you just have to have

0:10:14.160 --> 0:10:17.200
<v Speaker 2>the best self control of anyone that ever has walked

0:10:17.200 --> 0:10:17.520
<v Speaker 2>the earth.

0:10:17.720 --> 0:10:19.160
<v Speaker 3>I couldn't know. It just sounds.

0:10:19.280 --> 0:10:23.680
<v Speaker 1>It sounds torturous. It sounds absolutely like hell on Earth,

0:10:23.880 --> 0:10:24.760
<v Speaker 1>literal hell on Earth.

0:10:24.880 --> 0:10:25.320
<v Speaker 3>Horrible.

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:27.720
<v Speaker 1>I feel sorry for one that this has come under

0:10:27.760 --> 0:10:31.080
<v Speaker 1>such a microscope now because now anytime a horny moremon

0:10:31.200 --> 0:10:32.840
<v Speaker 1>is going into a dorm room to soak.

0:10:32.600 --> 0:10:35.320
<v Speaker 3>They're gonna be like, is this the wrong thing? Isn't this?

0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:37.679
<v Speaker 1>Does the world think that I'm having sex right now?

0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:40.920
<v Speaker 1>So maybe we've just cock blocked a whole entire group

0:10:41.000 --> 0:10:43.520
<v Speaker 1>of Mormons who were just living their best lives. Well,

0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.959
<v Speaker 1>there's a will, there's a way, Laura.

0:10:47.679 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 3>Okay, guys.

0:10:48.559 --> 0:10:52.360
<v Speaker 1>On that note, let's get into the questions for today's episode. Britt,

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:54.760
<v Speaker 1>you can kick it off and hit me with question

0:10:55.040 --> 0:10:56.280
<v Speaker 1>number number one.

0:10:56.360 --> 0:10:57.520
<v Speaker 3>Hit me with question number one.

0:10:57.800 --> 0:11:00.360
<v Speaker 2>All right, question number one. And whilst we're on the

0:11:00.360 --> 0:11:02.680
<v Speaker 2>topic of his sex, I'm going to read you a

0:11:02.720 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 2>sex one. But I promise after this it gets better.

0:11:05.000 --> 0:11:07.880
<v Speaker 2>This was just a really easy segue for me. Guys.

0:11:07.920 --> 0:11:09.920
<v Speaker 2>I love your work. I've had a few dates with

0:11:10.000 --> 0:11:12.840
<v Speaker 2>this really great guy. I like him a lot, and

0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:15.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm pretty sure he likes me a lot too. He's

0:11:15.240 --> 0:11:18.600
<v Speaker 2>good looking, he's nice, the chemistry is great, that sex

0:11:18.720 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 2>is great, even the talk is great. And let's be real,

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:23.840
<v Speaker 2>it is not often you find all of this in

0:11:23.880 --> 0:11:28.920
<v Speaker 2>one person. However, last night he started talking about his kinks.

0:11:29.240 --> 0:11:31.840
<v Speaker 2>The unusual thing is he likes in the bedroom. He

0:11:31.960 --> 0:11:34.160
<v Speaker 2>told me he'd ease me into it and started talking

0:11:34.200 --> 0:11:36.760
<v Speaker 2>about how it really turns him on when a girl squirts.

0:11:37.160 --> 0:11:40.120
<v Speaker 2>I thought, okay, that's not too weird. He then went

0:11:40.160 --> 0:11:42.200
<v Speaker 2>on to tell me he would enjoy it if she

0:11:42.240 --> 0:11:45.839
<v Speaker 2>were to then urinate on him. He even went as

0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:48.000
<v Speaker 2>far as to say that when I really needed to

0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.680
<v Speaker 2>pee during four play, that he found it super hot.

0:11:50.840 --> 0:11:53.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm really confused. Is this too weird? Am I just

0:11:53.640 --> 0:11:56.840
<v Speaker 2>naiven vanilla or even judgmental? It scares me that this

0:11:56.920 --> 0:11:59.160
<v Speaker 2>is not even the full extent of it. Do I

0:11:59.240 --> 0:12:02.280
<v Speaker 2>try to open up my mind to these uncomfortable, uncharted

0:12:02.280 --> 0:12:04.920
<v Speaker 2>things or should I just cut him loose now while

0:12:04.920 --> 0:12:07.319
<v Speaker 2>it's still relatively early days?

0:12:07.880 --> 0:12:08.160
<v Speaker 3>Help?

0:12:08.440 --> 0:12:10.079
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm not getting weed on. I am not

0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:11.160
<v Speaker 2>getting weed on, but that's just me.

0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:14.160
<v Speaker 1>I did say at the beginning of this that we

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:17.360
<v Speaker 1>had not so dirty dark and you know, saucy questions

0:12:17.360 --> 0:12:19.280
<v Speaker 1>for you, and I forgot what I questioned.

0:12:19.440 --> 0:12:21.479
<v Speaker 2>I told you I was Look.

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:24.400
<v Speaker 3>Have you ever had a guy ask you to wee

0:12:24.440 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 3>on him?

0:12:25.320 --> 0:12:27.559
<v Speaker 2>Never? And I would not let a guy we on me.

0:12:27.760 --> 0:12:29.920
<v Speaker 2>I've had someone we on me in the shower as

0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:30.520
<v Speaker 2>like a joke.

0:12:31.000 --> 0:12:32.720
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, No, I've definitely had a guy we on

0:12:32.760 --> 0:12:33.000
<v Speaker 3>me in the.

0:12:33.000 --> 0:12:38.840
<v Speaker 2>Shower as I was like, get the fuck out. No

0:12:38.880 --> 0:12:43.199
<v Speaker 2>one comes into my home and wheeze on me. Yes,

0:12:43.840 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Speaker 2>I have.

0:12:44.400 --> 0:12:46.760
<v Speaker 1>Also, why do guys think that's funny? Like there's a

0:12:46.760 --> 0:12:48.920
<v Speaker 1>whole conversation and how disrespectful that is.

0:12:49.160 --> 0:12:52.520
<v Speaker 2>I mean, but you're in istera. In Urin's defense, it's.

0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:54.839
<v Speaker 1>Also an opt in situation though, like you if you're

0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:57.319
<v Speaker 1>gonna get kissed on in any version, even if it's

0:12:57.320 --> 0:12:59.679
<v Speaker 1>in the shower, and your boyfriend thinks it's funny, Like,

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:02.120
<v Speaker 1>you've got to make sure that you guys are in

0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:04.760
<v Speaker 1>a relationship where that is actually something that you also

0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:07.360
<v Speaker 1>find funny, like if you if that is, like, that's

0:13:07.400 --> 0:13:09.920
<v Speaker 1>so disrespectful, if you guys are not on the same page,

0:13:10.320 --> 0:13:12.200
<v Speaker 1>mind you. I had an ex boyfriend do it to me.

0:13:12.280 --> 0:13:13.760
<v Speaker 1>He was like, hey, babe, can you pick up the soap?

0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:16.120
<v Speaker 1>And as I picked up the soap, he pissed on

0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:20.600
<v Speaker 1>my head and I was so that is it's too much.

0:13:20.720 --> 0:13:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I was so angry, too far, so disrespectful. I was

0:13:24.320 --> 0:13:27.840
<v Speaker 1>so angry, and I mean, surprisingly we're not together anymore.

0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:29.360
<v Speaker 1>We didn't see e'd eye on a lot of things.

0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:34.679
<v Speaker 1>You saw a urine to eye ill like got you

0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:37.800
<v Speaker 1>when you bend over right and the face I had

0:13:37.800 --> 0:13:40.120
<v Speaker 1>a guy asked me to pee on him. This is

0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.360
<v Speaker 1>totally gonna end up in the Daily Mail. Sure it

0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:45.240
<v Speaker 1>is and I said no because I couldn't get my

0:13:45.280 --> 0:13:48.240
<v Speaker 1>head around how you do it and don't ruin your mattress,

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Like would you lay sheets down? Do you lay a

0:13:50.200 --> 0:13:52.200
<v Speaker 1>top holding down? Like how do you do it? What

0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:54.600
<v Speaker 1>if you have like a goose down cover? Like you

0:13:54.679 --> 0:13:56.959
<v Speaker 1>can't just pee on your bed. So there's a lot

0:13:56.960 --> 0:13:57.240
<v Speaker 1>to this.

0:13:57.559 --> 0:13:59.480
<v Speaker 2>I think that's sort of like on the same sort

0:13:59.480 --> 0:14:03.200
<v Speaker 2>of tracking when we were talking about what Lubo would

0:14:03.240 --> 0:14:05.240
<v Speaker 2>use the other day, for example in the intro, and

0:14:05.280 --> 0:14:07.640
<v Speaker 2>one of them was egg white. So in the middle

0:14:07.640 --> 0:14:09.079
<v Speaker 2>of the moment, you're like, hang on a second, I

0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:10.680
<v Speaker 2>just have to go on and prepare the egg whites

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:11.920
<v Speaker 2>to use. It really kills the moment.

0:14:11.960 --> 0:14:13.640
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it's the same thing, Laura, if you

0:14:13.679 --> 0:14:15.160
<v Speaker 1>have to get up and get a top hole on

0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:18.120
<v Speaker 1>to put on your bed before you urinate on your partner,

0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:21.720
<v Speaker 1>I feel like it's a real buzzkiller. This is not

0:14:21.800 --> 0:14:24.520
<v Speaker 1>King shaming though, if anybody, if anybody does this, I'm

0:14:24.600 --> 0:14:27.480
<v Speaker 1>asking these questions out of pure logistics, like, if that's

0:14:27.520 --> 0:14:29.320
<v Speaker 1>something that you guys are into your end play, I

0:14:29.320 --> 0:14:31.320
<v Speaker 1>would love to know how you go about doing it,

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:34.320
<v Speaker 1>just so that we can give some really informative information

0:14:34.360 --> 0:14:36.080
<v Speaker 1>the next time we speak about it. But and I

0:14:36.080 --> 0:14:38.560
<v Speaker 1>think the same thing for or kings, whatever floats your boat,

0:14:38.600 --> 0:14:40.520
<v Speaker 1>and whatever you're comfortable with, so long as you're both

0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:44.120
<v Speaker 1>comfortable with it, go for gold like that's super important.

0:14:44.400 --> 0:14:46.800
<v Speaker 1>The fact that you're not sure and you're a little

0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:50.240
<v Speaker 1>bit new to this area, I think, explore it. And

0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying do anything that sits outside of what

0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:55.120
<v Speaker 1>you're comfortable with, but I think have him tell you

0:14:55.160 --> 0:14:59.080
<v Speaker 1>what his kinks are. Have those conversations, and then see

0:14:59.120 --> 0:15:02.160
<v Speaker 1>where you sit the spectrum of how uncomfortable it makes

0:15:02.160 --> 0:15:04.560
<v Speaker 1>you feel and what you are okay with, And I

0:15:04.600 --> 0:15:07.840
<v Speaker 1>probably think it's better to know more, Like you know

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:10.560
<v Speaker 1>when he says he's easing you into it, I think

0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:13.080
<v Speaker 1>it's probably better for him to be pretty transparent, in

0:15:13.200 --> 0:15:15.000
<v Speaker 1>straight up about what it is that he likes or

0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:16.600
<v Speaker 1>doesn't like, what it is that he can live with

0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:19.080
<v Speaker 1>and can't live without, because then it allows you to

0:15:19.160 --> 0:15:22.200
<v Speaker 1>go cool. I am comfortable with this, but I'm completely

0:15:22.320 --> 0:15:26.480
<v Speaker 1>uncomfortable with doing XYZ. And maybe your feelings towards that

0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:29.200
<v Speaker 1>might change over time as you become more intimate and

0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:31.600
<v Speaker 1>as you push your own boundaries. But also it might

0:15:31.640 --> 0:15:34.600
<v Speaker 1>not and that's totally okay. And he needs to know

0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:37.920
<v Speaker 1>what your boundaries are now so that way he doesn't

0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:40.120
<v Speaker 1>feel like it's okay to push them or to try

0:15:40.160 --> 0:15:43.520
<v Speaker 1>and coerce you into doing something that you're not comfortable with. Yeah,

0:15:43.560 --> 0:15:48.720
<v Speaker 1>and unfortunately, sexual compatibility is a large part of a relationship.

0:15:48.760 --> 0:15:50.800
<v Speaker 1>It is important if you guys aren't on the same

0:15:50.840 --> 0:15:53.640
<v Speaker 1>wavelength with things that you want, things that you like,

0:15:53.760 --> 0:15:56.040
<v Speaker 1>things that you want to try. If you don't gel

0:15:56.040 --> 0:15:57.840
<v Speaker 1>in the bedroom and you just don't have that ease

0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:01.840
<v Speaker 1>and comfortability, it is something that can cause riffs in relationships,

0:16:01.920 --> 0:16:04.360
<v Speaker 1>especially if and it sounds like this could be the

0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:07.880
<v Speaker 1>case with you guys, you're on one extreme to the other.

0:16:08.800 --> 0:16:11.520
<v Speaker 1>I think what Laura said is completely accurate. I would

0:16:11.560 --> 0:16:14.160
<v Speaker 1>sit down and just say, let's talk about your kinks.

0:16:14.320 --> 0:16:16.680
<v Speaker 1>What are they because there is absolutely nothing wrong with

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:18.880
<v Speaker 1>having kings as long as people are on the same wavelength.

0:16:19.160 --> 0:16:20.960
<v Speaker 2>Talk about what they are. Maybe he can write down

0:16:21.000 --> 0:16:23.680
<v Speaker 2>a list, Maybe you can explore what they are together,

0:16:23.840 --> 0:16:25.600
<v Speaker 2>so maybe you can look them up on the internet.

0:16:25.640 --> 0:16:27.880
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you can talk about them. Maybe you can do

0:16:28.000 --> 0:16:30.480
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of research to see where you feel

0:16:30.480 --> 0:16:33.720
<v Speaker 2>comfortable if there's something that you're willing to try on

0:16:33.760 --> 0:16:36.000
<v Speaker 2>that spectrum, after you've talked about it, then you can

0:16:36.040 --> 0:16:39.280
<v Speaker 2>definitely go down that path once you've tried and you've

0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:41.400
<v Speaker 2>had the chat. I don't think until you've done this

0:16:41.480 --> 0:16:43.720
<v Speaker 2>you're actually able to say, yes, I want to be

0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:45.520
<v Speaker 2>with you, No, I don't want to be with you.

0:16:45.560 --> 0:16:47.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't think he can just cut him off because

0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.960
<v Speaker 2>he said I sort of like these things in the bedroom.

0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 2>You need to know a little bit more. You need

0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:53.600
<v Speaker 2>to find out more. Just have an adult conversation, and

0:16:53.640 --> 0:16:55.600
<v Speaker 2>if you're willing to try it, go for it. But

0:16:55.720 --> 0:17:00.240
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent, if anything you are uncomfortable with, don't

0:17:00.320 --> 0:17:03.840
<v Speaker 2>have to try anything. And maybe this relationship isn't for you.

0:17:03.840 --> 0:17:05.439
<v Speaker 2>You're just not gonna know until you sit down and

0:17:05.480 --> 0:17:06.240
<v Speaker 2>have that conversation.

0:17:06.520 --> 0:17:09.159
<v Speaker 1>I also think it's important maybe he's tried something in

0:17:09.200 --> 0:17:10.919
<v Speaker 1>the past, but I also think it's important to have

0:17:10.960 --> 0:17:14.520
<v Speaker 1>a conversation around frequency. And I mean this because I

0:17:14.560 --> 0:17:17.800
<v Speaker 1>think that some people may have tried something once or

0:17:17.840 --> 0:17:20.240
<v Speaker 1>twice or they want to try it in the future,

0:17:20.600 --> 0:17:22.920
<v Speaker 1>and then they're saying, hey, like I've got this fantasy

0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:24.680
<v Speaker 1>or I've got this fetish or I have this kink

0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:26.720
<v Speaker 1>that I like, but it's the non essential, do you

0:17:26.760 --> 0:17:28.520
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean? Like, they're probably or there is

0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:31.080
<v Speaker 1>still the opportunity to have a great relationship, even if

0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:33.480
<v Speaker 1>that's something that you're saying no to. So the guy

0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:35.240
<v Speaker 1>that I was dating who asked me to pee on

0:17:35.359 --> 0:17:37.480
<v Speaker 1>him and I said no because it was something that

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:39.920
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't comfortable with. It wasn't a make or break

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:41.679
<v Speaker 1>for him. He wasn't like, well, if you're never going

0:17:41.760 --> 0:17:43.679
<v Speaker 1>to pee on me, I can't be on a relationship

0:17:43.680 --> 0:17:47.000
<v Speaker 1>with you. Our relationship didn't work out for the many

0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:50.080
<v Speaker 1>other reasons, but interestingly it did have to do with

0:17:50.160 --> 0:17:51.200
<v Speaker 1>sexual compatibility.

0:17:51.280 --> 0:17:53.360
<v Speaker 3>He wanted to be.

0:17:53.200 --> 0:17:55.600
<v Speaker 1>In a polyamorous relationship and I wasn't comfortable with that,

0:17:55.720 --> 0:18:00.439
<v Speaker 1>so his sexual exploration was far more vast than so

0:18:00.480 --> 0:18:03.840
<v Speaker 1>for me. It wasn't compatible. However, there are definitely other

0:18:03.880 --> 0:18:06.200
<v Speaker 1>people that I've dated who have wanted to try things

0:18:06.240 --> 0:18:08.639
<v Speaker 1>that I haven't felt comfortable with, but it's been a

0:18:08.720 --> 0:18:11.040
<v Speaker 1>neither here or there, And I think that that's also

0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:13.320
<v Speaker 1>an important part of this find out sort of how

0:18:13.480 --> 0:18:16.720
<v Speaker 1>essential are these kinks to him having a fulfilling sexual

0:18:16.760 --> 0:18:19.200
<v Speaker 1>relationship with you? And if there's something that he would

0:18:19.200 --> 0:18:21.600
<v Speaker 1>like to try, but he's not going to run away

0:18:21.600 --> 0:18:23.600
<v Speaker 1>from the relationship if he never gets to try them

0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:25.000
<v Speaker 1>with you, and he's not going to go and look

0:18:25.000 --> 0:18:27.800
<v Speaker 1>for that satisfaction elsewhere, then I think you guys can

0:18:27.880 --> 0:18:28.560
<v Speaker 1>still have a.

0:18:28.520 --> 0:18:30.360
<v Speaker 3>Really awesome relationship.

0:18:30.560 --> 0:18:32.640
<v Speaker 1>And I think it's so great that he's been really

0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:34.800
<v Speaker 1>open about this from the very very beginning.

0:18:35.119 --> 0:18:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I was just about to say the same thing.

0:18:37.119 --> 0:18:40.239
<v Speaker 2>He hats off to him for being fully transparent very

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:42.959
<v Speaker 2>early on. Obviously it is something that's important to him,

0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:44.440
<v Speaker 2>or he wouldn't have brought it up. So I think

0:18:44.480 --> 0:18:46.119
<v Speaker 2>that you can do the same. You can be just

0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.640
<v Speaker 2>as honors back. And that's I mean, we always say

0:18:48.640 --> 0:18:52.560
<v Speaker 2>it every episode the Seciita a relationship communication, but let

0:18:52.640 --> 0:18:55.199
<v Speaker 2>us know we love it. I actually really mean this.

0:18:55.520 --> 0:18:57.520
<v Speaker 2>I love it when you guys follow up and tell

0:18:57.600 --> 0:19:00.720
<v Speaker 2>us how conversation, when, or how something ends, because we

0:19:01.080 --> 0:19:02.600
<v Speaker 2>really love to see how it pans out.

0:19:03.119 --> 0:19:03.960
<v Speaker 3>And the last thing I.

0:19:03.960 --> 0:19:05.520
<v Speaker 1>Just want to add to this as well, is and

0:19:05.560 --> 0:19:07.320
<v Speaker 1>I think it's really important to be reminded of this.

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Sometimes we can push our boundaries to places we don't

0:19:10.200 --> 0:19:13.480
<v Speaker 1>feel comfortable with just because we really really like someone,

0:19:13.600 --> 0:19:16.560
<v Speaker 1>and I want to, like, really reiterate in this that

0:19:16.600 --> 0:19:19.600
<v Speaker 1>if there's something that you don't feel comfortable with, no

0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:22.160
<v Speaker 1>matter how much you like someone, don't do it. It's

0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:24.359
<v Speaker 1>not worth it. It's not worth pushing your boundaries to

0:19:24.400 --> 0:19:27.159
<v Speaker 1>a place that makes you uncomfortable just to make somebody

0:19:27.200 --> 0:19:29.800
<v Speaker 1>else happy. And somebody who's truly worth your time and

0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:32.639
<v Speaker 1>your investment, they would never want you to push your

0:19:32.640 --> 0:19:35.119
<v Speaker 1>boundaries to a place that makes you feel uncomfortable. So

0:19:35.400 --> 0:19:37.199
<v Speaker 1>if you're in a new relationship and you want to

0:19:37.200 --> 0:19:39.400
<v Speaker 1>please that other person, I get it. I think we've

0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.800
<v Speaker 1>all been in that situation before where we've wanted to

0:19:41.840 --> 0:19:45.680
<v Speaker 1>please them, But don't deny the way you feel about something,

0:19:45.720 --> 0:19:47.800
<v Speaker 1>and don't push yourself to a point that makes you

0:19:47.800 --> 0:19:50.800
<v Speaker 1>feel uncomfortable, because it is absolutely never worth it, and

0:19:50.840 --> 0:19:52.000
<v Speaker 1>they are not your penguin.

0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:55.320
<v Speaker 3>All right, Question number two, This is.

0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:58.200
<v Speaker 2>Really interesting, so I'm really excited to get your take

0:19:58.240 --> 0:20:00.399
<v Speaker 2>on it. I've been with my partner for a little

0:20:00.400 --> 0:20:03.160
<v Speaker 2>over a year and everything is great. I'm in my thirties.

0:20:03.359 --> 0:20:05.840
<v Speaker 2>Just for context, we want the same things and I

0:20:05.840 --> 0:20:07.880
<v Speaker 2>can see us ending up together. I think he could

0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:11.440
<v Speaker 2>be my penguin. We have spoken about getting married. He

0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:14.800
<v Speaker 2>currently lives an hour away and we spend every weekend

0:20:14.880 --> 0:20:18.639
<v Speaker 2>together and I really love our time together. Everything is great.

0:20:19.160 --> 0:20:22.120
<v Speaker 2>But he has asked me to move in with him,

0:20:22.359 --> 0:20:25.359
<v Speaker 2>and I'm tossing up whether I want to. The thing is,

0:20:25.520 --> 0:20:29.560
<v Speaker 2>I love my independence and I love having my own space. Ideally,

0:20:29.680 --> 0:20:31.160
<v Speaker 2>I think I would like to have a separate place

0:20:31.200 --> 0:20:34.919
<v Speaker 2>to my partner forever. But is this really weird? Is

0:20:34.960 --> 0:20:37.080
<v Speaker 2>it okay that I feel this way? Is it okay

0:20:37.119 --> 0:20:38.960
<v Speaker 2>that I want to be with someone and also live

0:20:39.000 --> 0:20:41.359
<v Speaker 2>this separate life. How do I even bring this up

0:20:41.400 --> 0:20:42.920
<v Speaker 2>with him? Don't know?

0:20:44.160 --> 0:20:49.800
<v Speaker 1>Okay, I think it is weird based on traditional monogamy

0:20:49.920 --> 0:20:51.880
<v Speaker 1>and how we have been sold that we should live

0:20:51.880 --> 0:20:54.639
<v Speaker 1>our lives right. If you're going to subscribe to the

0:20:54.680 --> 0:20:59.159
<v Speaker 1>traditional way of living, then yeah, it's an alternate way.

0:20:59.480 --> 0:21:00.280
<v Speaker 3>Is it weird?

0:21:00.520 --> 0:21:00.639
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:21:00.840 --> 0:21:01.919
<v Speaker 3>I actually like so.

0:21:02.040 --> 0:21:05.240
<v Speaker 1>For example, my mum who was married and divorced, she

0:21:05.320 --> 0:21:07.400
<v Speaker 1>got remarried about fifteen years ago.

0:21:07.440 --> 0:21:09.600
<v Speaker 3>Now to my stepdad. He is the freaking best.

0:21:09.840 --> 0:21:12.800
<v Speaker 1>They both own separate houses, and for the best part

0:21:12.800 --> 0:21:15.520
<v Speaker 1>of their relationship, even though they're married, they lived in

0:21:15.640 --> 0:21:18.119
<v Speaker 1>separate houses. All of his stuff was in his house.

0:21:18.440 --> 0:21:20.399
<v Speaker 1>All of her stuff was in her house, And I

0:21:20.400 --> 0:21:23.720
<v Speaker 1>think it just was because they both came from being divorces,

0:21:24.000 --> 0:21:27.120
<v Speaker 1>being older, and like having their very set lives, having

0:21:27.160 --> 0:21:30.480
<v Speaker 1>their own children from separate marriages, and it worked for them.

0:21:30.800 --> 0:21:32.800
<v Speaker 1>But I think had you asked me this question when

0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I was in my twenties, or when I was, you know, fifteen,

0:21:35.400 --> 0:21:37.720
<v Speaker 1>sixteen seventeen, how I'd been brought up, I would have

0:21:37.760 --> 0:21:40.480
<v Speaker 1>thought that is fucking crazy. You have to live with

0:21:40.520 --> 0:21:43.000
<v Speaker 1>your partner. It's so dysfunctional if you don't that. The

0:21:43.119 --> 0:21:46.000
<v Speaker 1>older that I've gotten and the more that I have

0:21:46.200 --> 0:21:49.800
<v Speaker 1>experienced and seen how other people live alternate relationships, the

0:21:49.840 --> 0:21:51.680
<v Speaker 1>more that I'm like, actually.

0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:53.840
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what doesn't sound so bad after all?

0:21:54.160 --> 0:21:55.359
<v Speaker 3>Actually could be really great.

0:21:55.520 --> 0:21:57.160
<v Speaker 1>Look, you wanted to be close by you, maybe want

0:21:57.160 --> 0:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>to be on the same street or something. But if

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:02.879
<v Speaker 1>it works for the two of you, it works. Just

0:22:02.920 --> 0:22:05.399
<v Speaker 1>because other people think something's weird doesn't mean it's weird.

0:22:05.720 --> 0:22:08.159
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't agree more. I used to think, and I

0:22:08.240 --> 0:22:09.800
<v Speaker 2>probably there might be a little part of me that

0:22:09.840 --> 0:22:12.040
<v Speaker 2>still thinks that I used to think that I would

0:22:12.080 --> 0:22:13.560
<v Speaker 2>be like that. I got to the point where I

0:22:13.600 --> 0:22:16.040
<v Speaker 2>just and I love my own space. Obviously, I've been

0:22:16.080 --> 0:22:18.760
<v Speaker 2>living on my own for so long and I genuinely

0:22:18.800 --> 0:22:21.400
<v Speaker 2>love my own time. I was like, if I ever

0:22:21.440 --> 0:22:24.800
<v Speaker 2>meet someone, I wonder if we can live like semi

0:22:24.840 --> 0:22:27.800
<v Speaker 2>separate lives. Maybe that's why I'm dating Jordan, because he's

0:22:27.800 --> 0:22:31.239
<v Speaker 2>a way for like eleven months of a year. But

0:22:31.480 --> 0:22:33.680
<v Speaker 2>I really loved the idea of like having your own

0:22:33.720 --> 0:22:35.439
<v Speaker 2>space and being able to do your own things so

0:22:35.440 --> 0:22:37.960
<v Speaker 2>you can come back together and still talk and have

0:22:38.040 --> 0:22:40.280
<v Speaker 2>these I don't know, I guess this level of independence.

0:22:40.560 --> 0:22:42.720
<v Speaker 2>I know a couple that Laura are the same thing.

0:22:43.119 --> 0:22:46.000
<v Speaker 2>They've been married, they're in their sixties, they've been married well,

0:22:46.119 --> 0:22:49.880
<v Speaker 2>I think since they are about early twenties. And they

0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:53.600
<v Speaker 2>live in the same street but in separate houses. And

0:22:53.640 --> 0:22:55.520
<v Speaker 2>I always have This isn't a new thing. They've got

0:22:55.560 --> 0:22:58.040
<v Speaker 2>kids and everything, and it's just what works for them.

0:22:58.080 --> 0:22:59.879
<v Speaker 2>They both like their own space. They just go between

0:22:59.840 --> 0:23:02.800
<v Speaker 2>you other's house for dinners and family stuff, but they

0:23:02.920 --> 0:23:05.800
<v Speaker 2>go home to their own house to sleep, and it's

0:23:05.840 --> 0:23:07.040
<v Speaker 2>not it doesn't even have to be every day that

0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:08.439
<v Speaker 2>they see each other. And I used to think that

0:23:08.480 --> 0:23:12.159
<v Speaker 2>it was really strange because in the scope of relationships

0:23:12.240 --> 0:23:15.160
<v Speaker 2>it is. It's definitely not something that is common. It's

0:23:15.160 --> 0:23:16.840
<v Speaker 2>not something you come across all the time. But I

0:23:16.880 --> 0:23:19.199
<v Speaker 2>think if you started to speak about it more openly,

0:23:19.240 --> 0:23:21.480
<v Speaker 2>and I'm sure we'll get messages sent into us because

0:23:21.480 --> 0:23:23.440
<v Speaker 2>every time we speak about something like this, we do

0:23:23.720 --> 0:23:25.560
<v Speaker 2>and it's very eye opening. I reckon there'll be more

0:23:25.600 --> 0:23:29.000
<v Speaker 2>people that have this semi independent, semi separate life with

0:23:29.080 --> 0:23:32.280
<v Speaker 2>their partners. If it's what you want, you just have

0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:33.720
<v Speaker 2>to bring it up with him, Like if you know

0:23:33.800 --> 0:23:35.359
<v Speaker 2>that that's what you want, I mean, you have to

0:23:35.359 --> 0:23:37.159
<v Speaker 2>give the guy an answer. He's literally sent to you

0:23:37.160 --> 0:23:39.280
<v Speaker 2>where you move in with me. You can't just be like, ah,

0:23:39.320 --> 0:23:41.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll get back to you in two years. I would

0:23:41.440 --> 0:23:43.600
<v Speaker 2>just have the conversation and say, yeah, look I have

0:23:43.720 --> 0:23:46.520
<v Speaker 2>some reservations. I love being with you, I love spending

0:23:46.520 --> 0:23:48.480
<v Speaker 2>time with you. I think that you could be it

0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:50.760
<v Speaker 2>for me. I'm just so used to being on my

0:23:50.800 --> 0:23:52.240
<v Speaker 2>own and I'm not sure how I'm going to go

0:23:52.320 --> 0:23:57.000
<v Speaker 2>transitioning into this full time living arrangement. Maybe it could

0:23:57.040 --> 0:23:59.240
<v Speaker 2>be that you start doing like a fifty to fifty,

0:23:59.240 --> 0:24:01.639
<v Speaker 2>maybe still have your own places, but you just spend

0:24:01.960 --> 0:24:05.080
<v Speaker 2>half the time together and half not he might be

0:24:05.160 --> 0:24:07.320
<v Speaker 2>on board with that, you don't know, but also there

0:24:07.320 --> 0:24:09.280
<v Speaker 2>could be a chance where he wants something more and

0:24:09.320 --> 0:24:12.560
<v Speaker 2>he wants this living, complete relationship, but you're not going

0:24:12.640 --> 0:24:14.239
<v Speaker 2>to know until you have the conversation. And I think

0:24:14.280 --> 0:24:15.639
<v Speaker 2>you just need to say to him, I think just

0:24:15.640 --> 0:24:16.960
<v Speaker 2>be one hundred percent honest.

0:24:17.119 --> 0:24:20.320
<v Speaker 1>Could you imagine not having to share your wardrobe with someone,

0:24:20.680 --> 0:24:23.199
<v Speaker 1>or not having to share your bathroom, or like not

0:24:23.240 --> 0:24:25.600
<v Speaker 1>having someone breathing their morning breath on you. No, I

0:24:25.600 --> 0:24:27.399
<v Speaker 1>don't mean that I fucking love living with Matt. But

0:24:27.840 --> 0:24:29.560
<v Speaker 1>I think the thing that you're going to struggle with

0:24:29.560 --> 0:24:32.200
<v Speaker 1>this is that because it is non traditional, there will

0:24:32.240 --> 0:24:35.880
<v Speaker 1>be majority of people I would say who once they're

0:24:35.920 --> 0:24:38.760
<v Speaker 1>in a long term relationship. And when I say majority,

0:24:38.880 --> 0:24:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean like statistically majority.

0:24:40.800 --> 0:24:42.680
<v Speaker 3>I don't mean that there's a right and wrong in this, but.

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:45.480
<v Speaker 1>I think majority of people do want to have that,

0:24:45.680 --> 0:24:47.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, closeness. They want to live with their partner.

0:24:48.240 --> 0:24:51.160
<v Speaker 1>I think that that's a pretty standard want that most

0:24:51.160 --> 0:24:55.000
<v Speaker 1>people have, and so I think you may have challenges

0:24:55.119 --> 0:24:57.639
<v Speaker 1>explaining this to your partner and for them to not

0:24:57.680 --> 0:24:59.520
<v Speaker 1>feel rejected and feel like there's.

0:24:59.320 --> 0:25:00.199
<v Speaker 3>Something wrong with them.

0:25:00.320 --> 0:25:01.879
<v Speaker 1>And I really think The most important part of this

0:25:01.920 --> 0:25:04.760
<v Speaker 1>would be explaining that it doesn't matter who the person is,

0:25:04.880 --> 0:25:06.479
<v Speaker 1>it's that you are not at a point in your

0:25:06.520 --> 0:25:08.879
<v Speaker 1>life where you're ready to give up your independence and

0:25:08.920 --> 0:25:10.840
<v Speaker 1>you're not sure what that looks like in the future.

0:25:11.040 --> 0:25:13.159
<v Speaker 1>I don't think you should just move in yet if

0:25:13.200 --> 0:25:15.000
<v Speaker 1>you're not ready to. I really think that that's something

0:25:15.000 --> 0:25:17.760
<v Speaker 1>that you have to want to do, because moving in

0:25:17.800 --> 0:25:21.679
<v Speaker 1>with someone can either make a relationship so freaking awesome,

0:25:21.680 --> 0:25:23.440
<v Speaker 1>it can be the best thing that happens to you, guys,

0:25:23.480 --> 0:25:25.879
<v Speaker 1>and really galvanize you as a couple. But if you

0:25:26.000 --> 0:25:28.560
<v Speaker 1>don't really want to live with the person, or if

0:25:28.560 --> 0:25:31.040
<v Speaker 1>the house is too small, or if there is things

0:25:31.080 --> 0:25:34.040
<v Speaker 1>about them and the way that they live currently that

0:25:34.160 --> 0:25:36.760
<v Speaker 1>irritate you and you spend too much time in their company,

0:25:37.040 --> 0:25:39.360
<v Speaker 1>then I really think that moving in together can be

0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:41.359
<v Speaker 1>the beginning of the end for some people, and it

0:25:41.400 --> 0:25:43.200
<v Speaker 1>puts too much stress on the relationship.

0:25:43.640 --> 0:25:45.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it definitely, like, as much as I joke about,

0:25:45.640 --> 0:25:48.040
<v Speaker 2>it definitely changed for me. I always thought I didn't

0:25:48.080 --> 0:25:50.000
<v Speaker 2>want it, and since spending the last few months in

0:25:50.080 --> 0:25:52.080
<v Speaker 2>Jordan's pocket, I can't wait till the day comes that

0:25:52.119 --> 0:25:53.760
<v Speaker 2>we live together. And I didn't think I'd ever have

0:25:53.920 --> 0:25:56.360
<v Speaker 2>that feeling. So you don't know what's going to happen.

0:25:56.400 --> 0:25:58.600
<v Speaker 2>I know you've said you've been within long term already.

0:25:58.600 --> 0:26:01.520
<v Speaker 2>I think it's already been a year. But just I think,

0:26:01.600 --> 0:26:03.520
<v Speaker 2>just have a conversation with him. There's no rush, there's

0:26:03.520 --> 0:26:05.840
<v Speaker 2>no right or wrong. Enjoy your life and don't feel

0:26:05.880 --> 0:26:07.960
<v Speaker 2>the stress in this. Don't feel the pressure to be like,

0:26:08.080 --> 0:26:09.959
<v Speaker 2>oh my god, this is the biggest decision ever. It

0:26:10.000 --> 0:26:12.040
<v Speaker 2>really doesn't have to be, and it's only as big

0:26:12.040 --> 0:26:13.399
<v Speaker 2>a decision as you make it.

0:26:13.800 --> 0:26:14.760
<v Speaker 3>But Britt, do you think.

0:26:14.640 --> 0:26:16.320
<v Speaker 1>With this do you think, with this sort of question

0:26:16.480 --> 0:26:18.879
<v Speaker 1>that it's so age dependent as well? Like, do you

0:26:18.880 --> 0:26:21.400
<v Speaker 1>think it's because and I'm talking like from your experience

0:26:21.400 --> 0:26:24.000
<v Speaker 1>as well, that because you're in your thirties and because

0:26:24.040 --> 0:26:25.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, once you've been single for a period of time,

0:26:26.000 --> 0:26:28.560
<v Speaker 1>you've lived on your own, you know how you like things.

0:26:28.880 --> 0:26:31.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you think that you then become so conditioned and

0:26:31.280 --> 0:26:34.200
<v Speaker 1>comfortable in your own space and doing what you want

0:26:34.280 --> 0:26:37.400
<v Speaker 1>when you want to that it's an even bigger sacrifice

0:26:37.440 --> 0:26:39.959
<v Speaker 1>to then pivot and then move in with someone and

0:26:40.000 --> 0:26:42.080
<v Speaker 1>have to compromise on everything one.

0:26:41.960 --> 0:26:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Hundred percent is so much harder the older you get.

0:26:44.560 --> 0:26:46.959
<v Speaker 2>I think it's it's different too when you're younger, not

0:26:47.000 --> 0:26:49.920
<v Speaker 2>to say you're not just as excited when you're older,

0:26:49.920 --> 0:26:52.600
<v Speaker 2>but you don't have the same stresses. I think there's

0:26:52.640 --> 0:26:54.959
<v Speaker 2>this young love naivity when you're you know, in your

0:26:54.960 --> 0:26:59.240
<v Speaker 2>early twenties. When you're older, you've got like so many stresses.

0:26:59.240 --> 0:27:02.320
<v Speaker 2>You're always stop, you're always working so hard, You're always

0:27:02.359 --> 0:27:04.359
<v Speaker 2>like and like, the last thing you want to do

0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:06.600
<v Speaker 2>is come home to an environment that you don't actually

0:27:06.600 --> 0:27:08.320
<v Speaker 2>feel comfortable and you want to be so I think

0:27:08.320 --> 0:27:11.199
<v Speaker 2>we just think of things a bit more carefully. Also,

0:27:11.359 --> 0:27:13.960
<v Speaker 2>I think there's a level of financial independence that comes

0:27:13.960 --> 0:27:16.080
<v Speaker 2>with growing up as well. When you're in your early twenties,

0:27:16.359 --> 0:27:18.280
<v Speaker 2>it makes sense to move in when you partner straight away,

0:27:18.359 --> 0:27:21.159
<v Speaker 2>or you might be a university for so funding wise,

0:27:21.200 --> 0:27:23.000
<v Speaker 2>it just makes sense. When you're older and you've got

0:27:23.000 --> 0:27:24.200
<v Speaker 2>your own financial.

0:27:23.760 --> 0:27:26.080
<v Speaker 1>Independence, you're like, oh, I don't know if I want

0:27:26.080 --> 0:27:29.000
<v Speaker 1>you to share my space For Jordan and I, I

0:27:29.040 --> 0:27:30.840
<v Speaker 1>think it's going to be harder for Jordan. Now Jordan

0:27:30.960 --> 0:27:33.760
<v Speaker 1>is like an OCD neat freak and he can't stand

0:27:33.960 --> 0:27:37.600
<v Speaker 1>me like I have shit, Like I am not messy,

0:27:37.640 --> 0:27:41.160
<v Speaker 1>but it gives him anxiety. Like if you guys follow

0:27:41.200 --> 0:27:43.480
<v Speaker 1>my Instagram stories, you see that he's vacuuming all the time,

0:27:43.520 --> 0:27:45.479
<v Speaker 1>and like, I'm always putting up how much he's cleaning.

0:27:45.640 --> 0:27:48.520
<v Speaker 1>He's the domestic goddess in our relationship, it's not me.

0:27:49.000 --> 0:27:50.760
<v Speaker 1>So I think that it's going to come with this

0:27:50.920 --> 0:27:52.440
<v Speaker 1>challenge just for sure, and that's going to be the

0:27:52.520 --> 0:27:55.200
<v Speaker 1>same as you as well. But it also comes down

0:27:55.240 --> 0:27:57.760
<v Speaker 1>to not just like the differences in cleaning, it's also

0:27:57.880 --> 0:28:00.639
<v Speaker 1>that feeling of like which I think we've all had it,

0:28:00.640 --> 0:28:02.480
<v Speaker 1>where you come home from a busy day of work

0:28:02.760 --> 0:28:05.440
<v Speaker 1>and you want to just check out and not speak

0:28:05.480 --> 0:28:07.879
<v Speaker 1>to anybody. And then when you move in with someone,

0:28:07.920 --> 0:28:10.520
<v Speaker 1>there is always somebody and you can't just come home,

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:13.560
<v Speaker 1>walk into your bedroom, turn like your favorite TV show

0:28:13.600 --> 0:28:15.520
<v Speaker 1>on and just not speak to anyone. You have to

0:28:15.600 --> 0:28:17.160
<v Speaker 1>go through the niceties.

0:28:17.080 --> 0:28:17.720
<v Speaker 3>Like you have to.

0:28:18.080 --> 0:28:20.520
<v Speaker 1>You've got to be nice to them, and then you're like, fuck,

0:28:20.560 --> 0:28:22.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to talk to you. I just want

0:28:22.119 --> 0:28:24.560
<v Speaker 1>to go and be like ignore everybody, And you really

0:28:24.600 --> 0:28:25.879
<v Speaker 1>can't do that once you have kids.

0:28:26.080 --> 0:28:27.840
<v Speaker 2>So this just happened the other day and Jordan and

0:28:27.920 --> 0:28:30.040
<v Speaker 2>I had like we never have a fight or argument,

0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:32.439
<v Speaker 2>but I was just being a sook. I had just

0:28:32.480 --> 0:28:34.359
<v Speaker 2>been at home working all day on my own, and

0:28:34.359 --> 0:28:36.280
<v Speaker 2>he had gone to training, he was playing, he was

0:28:36.280 --> 0:28:38.040
<v Speaker 2>doing all this stuff. So he's around people all day,

0:28:38.040 --> 0:28:40.120
<v Speaker 2>he's exerting high energy. I was doing nothing. I was

0:28:40.160 --> 0:28:42.520
<v Speaker 2>just on my computer. He came home, sat in the

0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:44.760
<v Speaker 2>lounge and then I was like this needy little puppy.

0:28:44.800 --> 0:28:46.800
<v Speaker 2>So I'm all over him. I'm jumping all over him,

0:28:46.840 --> 0:28:49.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm kissing him, I'm like wanting to play, I'm tickling him.

0:28:50.080 --> 0:28:52.120
<v Speaker 2>And he goes and it wasn't even bad. He just said,

0:28:52.120 --> 0:28:54.200
<v Speaker 2>would you just give me a second? That's what he said,

0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 2>and that was it. I was like, I'll give you

0:28:56.240 --> 0:29:04.160
<v Speaker 2>a fucking circond. I got so offended and so upset.

0:29:04.320 --> 0:29:06.280
<v Speaker 2>I was like beside myself and I was like.

0:29:06.440 --> 0:29:07.720
<v Speaker 3>Yea even want to be with me?

0:29:07.760 --> 0:29:09.080
<v Speaker 2>And he's like, what are you talking about.

0:29:09.160 --> 0:29:10.360
<v Speaker 3>He's like, I just want what.

0:29:10.480 --> 0:29:12.160
<v Speaker 2>Sickond on the lounge because I was all over in

0:29:12.200 --> 0:29:14.840
<v Speaker 2>my garage. And that's like a prime example of what

0:29:14.880 --> 0:29:18.040
<v Speaker 2>you just said, Lauris like, there are times where it's

0:29:18.160 --> 0:29:20.120
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent you need and want your own space.

0:29:20.120 --> 0:29:21.760
<v Speaker 2>And you have to be comfortable with who you're living

0:29:21.760 --> 0:29:24.520
<v Speaker 2>with any environment, And on top of that, you have

0:29:24.600 --> 0:29:26.960
<v Speaker 2>to be really open with your communication for each other

0:29:27.000 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 2>and not end up like Jordan and I in that moment.

0:29:29.040 --> 0:29:30.600
<v Speaker 3>And this is the person who we take live at

0:29:30.680 --> 0:29:33.440
<v Speaker 3>uts from everybody. I was a needy I think I

0:29:33.440 --> 0:29:36.760
<v Speaker 3>have my period. Oh man, I know how you feel, babe.

0:29:36.800 --> 0:29:38.680
<v Speaker 1>Okay, well, let's get to question number three. I feel

0:29:38.720 --> 0:29:41.280
<v Speaker 1>like we answered that one. Recently, my ex got in

0:29:41.320 --> 0:29:43.160
<v Speaker 1>touch with me and said he would like to hear

0:29:43.240 --> 0:29:45.720
<v Speaker 1>from me. Unsure if it means catch up in person

0:29:45.840 --> 0:29:48.000
<v Speaker 1>or just have a conversation of a text. We broke

0:29:48.080 --> 0:29:51.440
<v Speaker 1>up two years ago. Since then, I've had some situationships

0:29:51.480 --> 0:29:54.560
<v Speaker 1>and almost relationships. I don't have any feelings for this guy.

0:29:54.720 --> 0:29:57.040
<v Speaker 1>The breakout was civil, but it really hurt and I

0:29:57.120 --> 0:29:58.840
<v Speaker 1>learned a hell of a lot because it happened in

0:29:58.880 --> 0:30:01.520
<v Speaker 1>two parts. He had broken up once before and then

0:30:01.560 --> 0:30:04.720
<v Speaker 1>got back together that idea and I know that anyway,

0:30:05.000 --> 0:30:07.480
<v Speaker 1>I do care about this guy, and I'm genuinely interested

0:30:07.480 --> 0:30:09.720
<v Speaker 1>in hearing how he is, and a part of me

0:30:09.800 --> 0:30:12.240
<v Speaker 1>would really like to catch up too, But just as friends,

0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:14.800
<v Speaker 1>I don't see us maintaining a friendship from this catch up.

0:30:14.840 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 1>Either I just want to know what's going on in

0:30:16.800 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 1>his life. Moreover, I've just started seeing this really awesome

0:30:20.440 --> 0:30:22.760
<v Speaker 1>guy who I see a future with, and I really

0:30:22.800 --> 0:30:24.840
<v Speaker 1>want to explore this. We have been seeing each other

0:30:24.840 --> 0:30:27.480
<v Speaker 1>for almost two months now, and he is perfect. I

0:30:27.520 --> 0:30:29.720
<v Speaker 1>guess they have two questions. Should I catch up with

0:30:29.720 --> 0:30:31.640
<v Speaker 1>my ex? And if I do, should I tell this

0:30:31.640 --> 0:30:33.280
<v Speaker 1>new guy i'm seeing him?

0:30:33.960 --> 0:30:35.560
<v Speaker 3>This is a really easy question to answer.

0:30:36.160 --> 0:30:40.040
<v Speaker 2>No, do not catch up with you. I'm straight up

0:30:40.080 --> 0:30:46.320
<v Speaker 2>saying I again put yourself in your current partner's shoes.

0:30:46.800 --> 0:30:50.600
<v Speaker 2>I think you've literally said I really think there's a

0:30:50.600 --> 0:30:53.160
<v Speaker 2>future with this guy. So if you really think there's

0:30:53.200 --> 0:30:54.840
<v Speaker 2>a future, why would you want to go back and

0:30:54.880 --> 0:30:56.840
<v Speaker 2>revisit the past. Why would you want to go back

0:30:56.880 --> 0:30:59.600
<v Speaker 2>and revisit something that he's already done, something that's already

0:30:59.640 --> 0:31:02.480
<v Speaker 2>over When you know you're in a good place right now,

0:31:02.680 --> 0:31:05.240
<v Speaker 2>there's no reason that you can't catch up with him.

0:31:05.280 --> 0:31:07.400
<v Speaker 2>If you said I'm really interested in knowing how he is,

0:31:07.520 --> 0:31:09.320
<v Speaker 2>you can do that by a message like you're already

0:31:09.360 --> 0:31:11.120
<v Speaker 2>talking to him. He's asked you to catch up. Just

0:31:11.160 --> 0:31:13.520
<v Speaker 2>say how are things I hope they're really well. I

0:31:13.560 --> 0:31:15.880
<v Speaker 2>think you should also be honest when he asks how

0:31:15.920 --> 0:31:18.280
<v Speaker 2>you are and say, hey, i'm seeing this guy. This

0:31:18.440 --> 0:31:21.240
<v Speaker 2>new guy is really great. But I think you're really

0:31:22.080 --> 0:31:25.880
<v Speaker 2>asking for trouble and playing with fire by going back

0:31:25.920 --> 0:31:28.640
<v Speaker 2>and seeing your ex in person to catch up. When

0:31:28.680 --> 0:31:30.960
<v Speaker 2>you're in a relationship with someone you, if you do

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:33.360
<v Speaker 2>decide to do it, yes, one hundred percent, you need

0:31:33.400 --> 0:31:35.360
<v Speaker 2>to tell your partner like, I don't think you should

0:31:35.360 --> 0:31:36.640
<v Speaker 2>do it, but if you do, you have to be

0:31:36.680 --> 0:31:41.280
<v Speaker 2>honest and tell him. But imagine if he said to

0:31:41.360 --> 0:31:44.120
<v Speaker 2>you or didn't say to you, when you found out

0:31:44.480 --> 0:31:46.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to catch up with my ex girlfriend. Hope

0:31:46.560 --> 0:31:49.520
<v Speaker 2>that's cool, You'd be like, well, why, like, why are

0:31:49.560 --> 0:31:51.360
<v Speaker 2>you doing that? If we're in this really good place.

0:31:51.720 --> 0:31:53.479
<v Speaker 2>I just think nothing good is going to come from

0:31:53.520 --> 0:31:54.120
<v Speaker 2>this situation.

0:31:54.720 --> 0:31:57.880
<v Speaker 1>Nothing good is coming from this situation. Okay, But we've

0:31:57.920 --> 0:32:00.920
<v Speaker 1>all done it, right, so many of us. I've done it.

0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I've lived the lesson. I'm here to tell you it's

0:32:02.960 --> 0:32:05.920
<v Speaker 1>a fucking bad idea. Also, there is a saying and

0:32:05.960 --> 0:32:08.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna say it wrong, but I'm just like, because

0:32:08.240 --> 0:32:08.720
<v Speaker 1>I always do.

0:32:10.040 --> 0:32:12.720
<v Speaker 3>Where there was once a flame, the embers still burn.

0:32:12.880 --> 0:32:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Is that it Britt, there's.

0:32:13.680 --> 0:32:16.440
<v Speaker 1>Something about okay, fuck, I've never.

0:32:18.000 --> 0:32:19.560
<v Speaker 3>Who are you guy?

0:32:20.160 --> 0:32:21.240
<v Speaker 2>What was that?

0:32:21.560 --> 0:32:21.880
<v Speaker 3>Okay?

0:32:21.960 --> 0:32:23.800
<v Speaker 1>So what it means is like you might think that

0:32:23.840 --> 0:32:27.280
<v Speaker 1>you're over him. You may think that it's totally cool,

0:32:27.360 --> 0:32:29.240
<v Speaker 1>and you just a curious you want to know what

0:32:29.320 --> 0:32:31.680
<v Speaker 1>he has to say, and then you see him, and

0:32:31.720 --> 0:32:33.959
<v Speaker 1>then those feelings come back a little bit because, like,

0:32:34.360 --> 0:32:37.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, you once had this deep connection and maybe

0:32:37.280 --> 0:32:38.840
<v Speaker 1>it was it was a bit of turmoil, maybe it

0:32:38.840 --> 0:32:40.920
<v Speaker 1>didn't end in a way that gave you full sense

0:32:40.920 --> 0:32:44.160
<v Speaker 1>of closure. I think that we can be very curious

0:32:44.240 --> 0:32:47.040
<v Speaker 1>about our exes, and maybe there's a little bit of

0:32:47.160 --> 0:32:50.080
<v Speaker 1>ego that's trapped in there as well. We once had

0:32:50.120 --> 0:32:53.720
<v Speaker 1>this really strong connection and relationship with this person. Now

0:32:53.800 --> 0:32:55.960
<v Speaker 1>we are no longer a part of their life at all,

0:32:56.360 --> 0:32:58.840
<v Speaker 1>and so there's almost like this little sense of like, oh,

0:32:58.920 --> 0:33:01.240
<v Speaker 1>I want to just I want to know what's going

0:33:01.240 --> 0:33:02.960
<v Speaker 1>on in their life, even if you don't want to

0:33:03.000 --> 0:33:04.960
<v Speaker 1>be with them, just wanting to have a bit of

0:33:04.960 --> 0:33:08.400
<v Speaker 1>a voyeuristic insight. I understand it because I think it's

0:33:08.400 --> 0:33:11.200
<v Speaker 1>a natural thing. But I also think it's really dangerous

0:33:11.200 --> 0:33:13.160
<v Speaker 1>and I think sometimes we need to unpack why do

0:33:13.200 --> 0:33:15.760
<v Speaker 1>we want to know about them? Like? Why are we

0:33:15.840 --> 0:33:18.040
<v Speaker 1>looking at their photos on Instagram if we don't even

0:33:18.080 --> 0:33:18.720
<v Speaker 1>care about them?

0:33:18.720 --> 0:33:20.640
<v Speaker 3>You know, if if you don't actually.

0:33:20.280 --> 0:33:22.880
<v Speaker 1>Have any deep feelings or like feelings that you want

0:33:22.920 --> 0:33:26.680
<v Speaker 1>to rekindle the relationship, why do you feel like you

0:33:26.760 --> 0:33:29.000
<v Speaker 1>want to know what's going on in their life? And

0:33:29.440 --> 0:33:31.800
<v Speaker 1>where does that want come from? Is it curiosity? Is

0:33:31.800 --> 0:33:32.160
<v Speaker 1>it ego?

0:33:32.280 --> 0:33:34.240
<v Speaker 3>What is it? Unpacked that a little bit for yourself.

0:33:34.240 --> 0:33:37.640
<v Speaker 1>But I think it's such a dangerous thing. I think

0:33:37.680 --> 0:33:40.080
<v Speaker 1>you're only opening up a fucking whoop ass can of

0:33:40.080 --> 0:33:44.080
<v Speaker 1>worms by doing this. Why invite the potential of drama

0:33:44.600 --> 0:33:46.960
<v Speaker 1>or the potential of a situation that could go wrong

0:33:47.000 --> 0:33:50.080
<v Speaker 1>into your life when things are just cruisy and easy

0:33:50.160 --> 0:33:52.360
<v Speaker 1>and good. Now, Yeah, don't dance with the devil.

0:33:52.560 --> 0:33:56.320
<v Speaker 2>I also think, I do think that you can stay

0:33:56.360 --> 0:33:58.520
<v Speaker 2>friends with your ex or have some sort of a

0:33:58.720 --> 0:34:02.240
<v Speaker 2>great amicable relationationship with your ex. But I think you

0:34:02.360 --> 0:34:06.320
<v Speaker 2>have to pick when and how and what that looks like.

0:34:07.080 --> 0:34:09.719
<v Speaker 2>You can maintain that friendship, for sure, but maybe it's

0:34:10.080 --> 0:34:12.879
<v Speaker 2>occasionally you send a catch up text or I hope

0:34:12.880 --> 0:34:15.640
<v Speaker 2>you're well, And also your current partner knows about it.

0:34:16.080 --> 0:34:19.279
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it involves catching up either behind your

0:34:19.320 --> 0:34:21.279
<v Speaker 2>partner's back, or even if you tell him. I just

0:34:21.320 --> 0:34:23.880
<v Speaker 2>think I mean, hats off to your partner. If he says,

0:34:23.920 --> 0:34:26.719
<v Speaker 2>go nut to go have fun like that, that's big

0:34:26.760 --> 0:34:28.799
<v Speaker 2>on his behalf. But I can't see it. Even if

0:34:28.840 --> 0:34:31.040
<v Speaker 2>he does say that, it's going to set something off

0:34:31.080 --> 0:34:33.080
<v Speaker 2>in his mind. He's going to start to wonder why

0:34:33.120 --> 0:34:34.520
<v Speaker 2>you want to catch up with your ex. When you

0:34:34.560 --> 0:34:36.759
<v Speaker 2>are catching up with your ex, he's gonna say it's

0:34:36.760 --> 0:34:38.960
<v Speaker 2>something going on. Does she have some sort of feelings

0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:41.560
<v Speaker 2>for him? Again, I just think it's not fair on

0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:44.400
<v Speaker 2>your current relationship, So I would if it was me,

0:34:44.920 --> 0:34:47.120
<v Speaker 2>I would ask how your ex is catch up via

0:34:47.200 --> 0:34:50.600
<v Speaker 2>the text the conversation that you've got going now, but

0:34:50.640 --> 0:34:52.440
<v Speaker 2>then say, I don't think it's fair to catch up

0:34:52.440 --> 0:34:54.120
<v Speaker 2>with you in person, because I don't think it's fair

0:34:54.120 --> 0:34:56.120
<v Speaker 2>to Bradley or whoever your boyfriend's name.

0:34:57.200 --> 0:34:58.880
<v Speaker 1>Don't you think there's like a sinister part in this?

0:34:59.000 --> 0:35:01.279
<v Speaker 1>And I don't mean sinister and like that you're doing

0:35:01.280 --> 0:35:02.919
<v Speaker 1>the person who's written the sinner is doing the wrong

0:35:02.960 --> 0:35:06.719
<v Speaker 1>thing at all. I mean sinister is in when your

0:35:06.719 --> 0:35:09.239
<v Speaker 1>ex gets in touch with you and says I have

0:35:09.360 --> 0:35:12.200
<v Speaker 1>to see you to tell you something after two years,

0:35:12.520 --> 0:35:15.080
<v Speaker 1>Like what could you possibly need to tell me after

0:35:15.080 --> 0:35:16.840
<v Speaker 1>two years? What that you're still in love with me?

0:35:17.200 --> 0:35:17.279
<v Speaker 2>Like?

0:35:17.320 --> 0:35:19.080
<v Speaker 1>What are you going to tell me that you're pregnant?

0:35:19.120 --> 0:35:22.040
<v Speaker 1>Like what is there that's such a big thing and

0:35:22.120 --> 0:35:24.200
<v Speaker 1>a big piece of news that you can't just text me.

0:35:24.280 --> 0:35:26.759
<v Speaker 1>So it makes me think what's motivating him is not

0:35:26.800 --> 0:35:28.680
<v Speaker 1>a friendship, because a friendship would just be a text

0:35:28.719 --> 0:35:31.520
<v Speaker 1>message being like, hey, how are you? You know, I

0:35:31.600 --> 0:35:33.680
<v Speaker 1>was thinking of this really funny thing that happened and

0:35:33.719 --> 0:35:35.360
<v Speaker 1>it reminded me of you, and I just wanted to

0:35:35.360 --> 0:35:37.960
<v Speaker 1>reach out and wish you well and you know, I

0:35:38.000 --> 0:35:40.919
<v Speaker 1>hope that life is great and take care. That's kind

0:35:40.920 --> 0:35:42.960
<v Speaker 1>of that's where a friendship would be born from. But

0:35:43.080 --> 0:35:46.880
<v Speaker 1>somebody reaching out after two years and going I really

0:35:46.920 --> 0:35:51.160
<v Speaker 1>need to see you to me screens that they are

0:35:51.200 --> 0:35:53.959
<v Speaker 1>trying to hook their claws back in or there's more

0:35:54.000 --> 0:35:55.880
<v Speaker 1>going on there. Have you not been in that situation,

0:35:55.960 --> 0:35:58.360
<v Speaker 1>brit where someone's just popped out of the absolute fucking

0:35:58.440 --> 0:36:01.560
<v Speaker 1>blue and been like, hey, I'm back, I'm back to

0:36:01.600 --> 0:36:02.440
<v Speaker 1>mess your life up.

0:36:02.840 --> 0:36:05.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And it's always like I haven't been on a

0:36:05.040 --> 0:36:07.440
<v Speaker 2>stop thinking about you, or no one's compared to you,

0:36:07.560 --> 0:36:09.719
<v Speaker 2>or I mean that's why I dream people say no,

0:36:10.160 --> 0:36:12.120
<v Speaker 2>it's never. It's never just like hey, hey, a you

0:36:12.200 --> 0:36:14.200
<v Speaker 2>going or blood Texas. So I don't know, do it

0:36:14.239 --> 0:36:16.279
<v Speaker 2>at your own risk. Know that you're probably playing with

0:36:16.360 --> 0:36:20.239
<v Speaker 2>fire and it's probably going to spontaneously combust. But that, Laura,

0:36:20.360 --> 0:36:22.480
<v Speaker 2>I reckon, that's it from us today. I reckon, that's

0:36:22.480 --> 0:36:25.560
<v Speaker 2>a rap, a good old salad rap. That was a

0:36:25.640 --> 0:36:27.960
<v Speaker 2>terrible That was a Brittany. That was a brittanyism. I

0:36:28.000 --> 0:36:30.240
<v Speaker 2>think I've said a few times. Actually it's definitely a brittanyism.

0:36:30.920 --> 0:36:33.200
<v Speaker 3>It's a salad rap. Guys. Anyway, guys, that is it

0:36:33.320 --> 0:36:33.799
