Speaker 1: Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms.
Speaker 2: This is the Flex and Frooms catch up podcast. It's
Speaker 2: Flex and Frooms on Caita.
Speaker 3: We only do one thing here, and that's answer the
Speaker 3: big questions, and it's some other things that you know,
Speaker 3: don't really make the cut. I've been doing a lot
Speaker 3: of thinking, prompted by the Internet, mostly but also prompted
Speaker 3: by my own life experience, and I was would.
Speaker 2: We call it an epiphany? No, we could just call
Speaker 2: it a thought. It's a thought. It's a thought.
Speaker 3: Which do you think is a lesser evil in relationships?
Speaker 3: Sharing passwords or sharing locations?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 2: This?
Speaker 3: I don't mean to come on the internet, to come
Speaker 3: on live radio and be controversial. I don't, you know,
Speaker 3: not everything I do as a statement. However, this one
Speaker 3: I don't think I necessarily have strong opinions on. But
Speaker 3: I'm always surprised when I'm interacting with someone who has
Speaker 3: really strong opinions on it. I am someone who shares
Speaker 3: phone locations. Wow, have I ever prompted someone to share
Speaker 3: theirs with me?
Speaker 2: First?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: So basically one of my best friends, who I've known
Speaker 3: forever is an avid location sharer. So as a novelty
Speaker 3: at the start, of our relationship, like you know howe
Speaker 3: many years ago, ten or whatever or whenever the function
Speaker 3: came out to share locations, but we worked together, so
Speaker 3: it was like we worked together.
Speaker 2: With were friends. It was funny. It was a gag.
Speaker 3: And I also felt like coming off the back of Snapchat,
Speaker 3: whenever we use that popular popular really well and I understand,
Speaker 3: you know, you could see the snap map and I
Speaker 3: was like, this is hectic. Why everybody lives and so,
Speaker 3: because she's a location sharer, what will often happen is
Speaker 3: that she'll talk to me in front of other people
Speaker 3: and just know certain things. Oh, when I was checking
Speaker 3: Little's location, I saw so and so and so, Like
Speaker 3: I was wondering how that date went because like Lil
Speaker 3: had moved locations and I couldn't recognize where this was.
Speaker 3: And I think this is completely normal, And people be like,
Speaker 3: how do you have that information? I'd be like, oh,
Speaker 3: we share locations, one of two things will happen. Can
Speaker 3: I now, if you're a close, close friend, yeah, babe,
Speaker 3: jump on board.
Speaker 2: This is funny.
Speaker 3: But then you have other people who are like, that's
Speaker 3: so strange. And then my first response is like, well,
Speaker 3: I don't have anything to hide, like I just.
Speaker 1: Don't don't have anything to hide until you have someone
Speaker 1: to hide. Well, this is what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: When it comes to like locations, I'm so not fussed
Speaker 3: about it, to the point where I have to kind
Speaker 3: of flag with this friend, like it is not commonplace
Speaker 3: for you to know where I am when I don't know.
Speaker 3: Don't create a new norm where you think people are
Speaker 3: being secretive or weird if they don't want to share
Speaker 3: their location with you, Because I think she's also whopped
Speaker 3: in being like, well these people are so weird and secretive,
Speaker 3: and it's like, no, we're just codependent.
Speaker 2: It's a bit different.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about this in conjunction with people who
Speaker 3: share their phone passwords, because look, I'll share a phone
Speaker 3: password with a friend. Again, I don't mind. But in
Speaker 3: this instance, if a partner was like, let's share pass
Speaker 3: D be like, well what for?
Speaker 2: What do we need to do that for?
Speaker 1: I wouldn't share a single password with a single person.
Speaker 1: I just can't be I just can't be trusted either way.
Speaker 2: Oh, Like, I.
Speaker 1: Don't know what I'm saying. I have moods I talked,
Speaker 1: and if it was seen out of context.
Speaker 3: Well yeah, like everything on this phone is criminal, literally,
Speaker 3: But I also feel like there's something I kind of
Speaker 3: like about being accomplices, Like your crime is my crime.
Speaker 2: I guess let's do crime together.
Speaker 1: You know, what you need to realize is that if
Speaker 1: you're ever involved in a court case, they can go
Speaker 1: through messages.
Speaker 2: They could do that. Now. Can you imagine the person
Speaker 2: I could go to America and they would they could
Speaker 2: check my phone? Do you know that's so crazy.
Speaker 3: I've seen on TikTok a bunch of OnlyFans creators getting
Speaker 3: stopped as a flying to the US because they're cracking
Speaker 3: down on self employed only fans creators because as part
Speaker 3: of the esther the visa thing that you sign when
Speaker 3: you go, you have to confron that you're not going
Speaker 3: there to do work. And it gets a bit tricky
Speaker 3: because people often go to do work. But yeah, think
Speaker 3: about it, not saying that you have to do either or.
Speaker 3: But one thing that I'm trying to work on just
Speaker 3: in life generally is what we kind of spoke about
Speaker 3: the other day of that cool girl over correction. So
Speaker 3: a cool girl cares about nothing, and then when she
Speaker 3: realizes that she actually cares a lot, she suddenly cares
Speaker 3: about everything, and everything is like off limits and off bounds,
Speaker 3: and she has strong opinions. And so with this in particular,
Speaker 3: I don't feel very strongly about the locations thing. For
Speaker 3: other people, it's sets of alarm belts. What do they
Speaker 3: want to know? Why they're keeping tabs? I don't feel
Speaker 3: strongly about it, and it's good for me to know
Speaker 3: that instead of internalizing this whole like they don't trust
Speaker 3: me or I have something to hide. And with the
Speaker 3: phone passwords thing, people are insane as am I that's
Speaker 3: just crazy. Can you imagine someone like dating someone or
Speaker 3: befriending someone where this was the kind of test they
Speaker 3: were putting you through to gauge if you were trustworthy
Speaker 3: give me your phone password.
Speaker 2: They say you.
Speaker 1: Must be boring if you were going to give it
Speaker 1: away
