<v Speaker 1>Hi, guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life

0:00:22.440 --> 0:00:25.639
<v Speaker 1>on cart I'm Laura and I'm Brittany, and we just

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:29.640
<v Speaker 1>finished a freaking awesome interview with a woman named logan Urie,

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>which is coming out next Tuesday. But that's not what

0:00:31.760 --> 0:00:34.519
<v Speaker 1>we're doing on today's episode. Are you gonna? Are you

0:00:34.560 --> 0:00:36.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna tell them what it's about? Or just drop a name?

0:00:36.760 --> 0:00:39.120
<v Speaker 1>Are you? Are you soft launching an episode?

0:00:39.159 --> 0:00:39.479
<v Speaker 2>Laura?

0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:40.480
<v Speaker 1>I am.

0:00:40.280 --> 0:00:42.599
<v Speaker 2>I'm guys, it's gonna be the best episode that you've

0:00:42.640 --> 0:00:44.680
<v Speaker 2>ever listened to. This one's gonna be really good as well.

0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 2>But maybe we should tell you what this episode's about.

0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, this is asking on Cart. They know what this is,

0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:50.720
<v Speaker 1>don't you'd ask us your questions? Will we answer? I

0:00:50.760 --> 0:00:52.120
<v Speaker 1>think we don't need to go into that one.

0:00:52.200 --> 0:00:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, maybe there's a new listener who doesn't know, and

0:00:54.280 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 2>this is where we answer your deep, dark and burning questions.

0:00:57.280 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 2>But before we get into unpacking all of the messed

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:00.640
<v Speaker 2>up that's going.

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>On in your life at the moment, britt have you

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:06.280
<v Speaker 1>watched Squid Game yet? Okay, a few people have asked

0:01:06.280 --> 0:01:08.560
<v Speaker 1>me this and I have seen it everywhere. Obviously, I'm

0:01:08.600 --> 0:01:10.759
<v Speaker 1>in quarantine at the moment, and I'm almost I think

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:13.840
<v Speaker 1>halfway through. I've been been watching Netflix, but I have

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:17.680
<v Speaker 1>not turned on a squid game. And this is because

0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 1>all I've heard is people say, is really scary and

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 1>really gory, and that like I get scared and scary

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>movie as in like the piss take of the scary movies,

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:27.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, the comedy scary movie and that scares you.

0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 1>It scares me because it's like too close to the

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:33.440
<v Speaker 1>real thing. I'm such a pussy, like I can't watch

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:36.679
<v Speaker 1>anything scary or I'll have nightmare. So I haven't yet

0:01:36.720 --> 0:01:38.720
<v Speaker 1>watched it. One thing I have. Look, I'm gonna come

0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 1>with a recommendation, and I do think that I'm behind

0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:42.760
<v Speaker 1>the times. I think I'm late to the party. But

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.319
<v Speaker 1>it's Peaky Blinders. Have you watched that, Laura? I have

0:01:45.600 --> 0:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>not seen Peekles, do not know. I thought I had

0:01:48.280 --> 0:01:50.480
<v Speaker 1>seen the whole of Netflix. Now no, so I have

0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:52.920
<v Speaker 1>seen Peaky Blinders. You know, when you're scrolling your Netflix

0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 1>of things to watch, you see the same shows, but

0:01:54.680 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 1>you always just bypass them because you're like that's probably

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 1>so shit, or it doesn't grab you. Something about it

0:01:59.040 --> 0:02:01.520
<v Speaker 1>doesn't grab you. I've seen Pey blinders for so long,

0:02:01.560 --> 0:02:04.680
<v Speaker 1>and I've just thought, man, not for me. I am hooked.

0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:07.680
<v Speaker 1>I just binge watched six seasons like the whole it's

0:02:07.720 --> 0:02:09.440
<v Speaker 1>over for me, and I cried at the end because

0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:12.840
<v Speaker 1>I was like, what I do now? It was so good.

0:02:12.919 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 1>So I can't recommend it if I tell you what

0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:16.440
<v Speaker 1>it's about. If you haven't watched it, you're not going

0:02:16.480 --> 0:02:18.760
<v Speaker 1>to be interested. It's like back in the day, these

0:02:18.840 --> 0:02:21.600
<v Speaker 1>mafia in England and their drug dealers, and it's about

0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:24.160
<v Speaker 1>their family dynamic and it doesn't it's not a cell

0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:28.080
<v Speaker 1>but you get so obsessed with the characters. There's so

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 1>much great wonderful scripting and great acting and great character

0:02:32.240 --> 0:02:34.040
<v Speaker 1>development that you really get hooked in and you're just

0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:36.200
<v Speaker 1>like you feel like you know them so and they're

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:38.160
<v Speaker 1>the sort of seasons that I absolutely love. So that's

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:40.799
<v Speaker 1>my recommendation, and that is what I've been binging. Wait

0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>can we just go back a second to where you

0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:45.519
<v Speaker 1>said you cried because the series ended. Now was the

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 1>last episode sad or did you actually cry because you

0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 1>finished watching it and you were like, there's nothing else

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:54.919
<v Speaker 1>for me to watch now I'm morning a loss. Okay,

0:02:55.000 --> 0:02:57.400
<v Speaker 1>So this happened with me with Outlander. When I read

0:02:57.440 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 1>the books. There are also six books of Outlander. It

0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:02.280
<v Speaker 1>took me like two years to really like get through them.

0:03:02.320 --> 0:03:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I was at school. I put the last I remember

0:03:04.880 --> 0:03:08.360
<v Speaker 1>closing the book, and I was in hysterics because I

0:03:08.600 --> 0:03:10.280
<v Speaker 1>didn't know what to do with my life anymore for

0:03:10.400 --> 0:03:14.079
<v Speaker 1>all this time, for years, these people and I sound crazy,

0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 1>but any bookworm's out there you know this feeling. You know,

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>I'm not crazy, but like when you're that invested, you're

0:03:19.800 --> 0:03:21.720
<v Speaker 1>mourning a loss. Because I went back and read the

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>whole series twice. But that's a good writer. You feel

0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:25.800
<v Speaker 1>like you're there with them and you feel like you

0:03:25.840 --> 0:03:27.840
<v Speaker 1>know them and you are so invested in their story,

0:03:27.880 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>and anyone that knows what I'm talking about, I'm not crazy.

0:03:31.000 --> 0:03:32.760
<v Speaker 1>There is a feeling that you can mourn a loss

0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.160
<v Speaker 1>when you finish a good series of book or TV.

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:39.280
<v Speaker 1>So that's my defense. Okay, Well, I have started sword Games,

0:03:39.280 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 1>and I'm going to tell you when this trauma is finished,

0:03:41.440 --> 0:03:42.800
<v Speaker 1>i am not going to mourn a loss. I'm going

0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:44.720
<v Speaker 1>to be very happy that this is the end and

0:03:44.760 --> 0:03:46.800
<v Speaker 1>it comes to an end. I know that there's going

0:03:46.840 --> 0:03:48.440
<v Speaker 1>to be so many people listening to this who have

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:51.400
<v Speaker 1>started watching it just for some reference. I am on

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 1>episode two right now. I've seen the first episode, the

0:03:54.240 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>second episode. If you're in early days, we're so early.

0:03:57.240 --> 0:03:59.600
<v Speaker 2>But we turned it on last night because obviously the

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:02.560
<v Speaker 2>higher Internet has been talking about it. Some people in

0:04:02.560 --> 0:04:06.520
<v Speaker 2>the Facebook group were talking about it. It is fucking chaos,

0:04:06.760 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 2>and I'm not going to give away too much about

0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:11.960
<v Speaker 2>it for fear of spoiling. I mean, I can't spoil it,

0:04:11.960 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 2>and I have only watched two episodes, so I can't

0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:16.400
<v Speaker 2>spoil it for you. But it is this dystopian reality

0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.080
<v Speaker 2>where they are basically I mean, if you've seen the

0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Hunger Games, it kind of has a very similar premise

0:04:21.560 --> 0:04:24.479
<v Speaker 2>to the Hunger Games, except it was created in Korea.

0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:26.560
<v Speaker 2>You can either choose to watch it dubbed or you

0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:30.840
<v Speaker 2>can watch it subtitled. And basically it's a game or

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 2>series of games where the contestants are fighting literally for

0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.719
<v Speaker 2>their lives. The losers die, and the winners continue to

0:04:37.839 --> 0:04:40.520
<v Speaker 2>go through the games in order to win this incredibly

0:04:40.720 --> 0:04:42.760
<v Speaker 2>huge amount of prize money. I think it's like forty

0:04:42.800 --> 0:04:45.880
<v Speaker 2>five million dollars, which is supposed to be trying to

0:04:45.960 --> 0:04:49.400
<v Speaker 2>highlight the disparity, and it's got this deep concept. It's

0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:51.640
<v Speaker 2>trying to highlight the disparity between the rich and the poor,

0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.119
<v Speaker 2>what we would do for money, how money runs the world.

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.720
<v Speaker 1>But guys, is it is so messed up. I can't

0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:59.080
<v Speaker 1>even recommend it because it makes me feel so uncomfortable

0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 1>watching it. I don't think I would be able to

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:03.040
<v Speaker 1>watch it. Like you know where there was that period

0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:04.719
<v Speaker 1>in our life. I think you and I were probably

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:07.400
<v Speaker 1>about twenty when it happened where all these horror films

0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.840
<v Speaker 1>came out and the real gruesomeness. I couldn't watch them.

0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:10.920
<v Speaker 1>I can't do it.

0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:12.599
<v Speaker 2>It was like, I know what you did last summer

0:05:12.800 --> 0:05:14.560
<v Speaker 2>saw and they were just back to back and if

0:05:14.560 --> 0:05:17.239
<v Speaker 2>you go back and watch them now, they're so lame.

0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:20.480
<v Speaker 2>They're so poorly put together, and they go for really

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:24.800
<v Speaker 2>horror like Gore Factor, whereas Squid Game. It's not scary

0:05:24.920 --> 0:05:27.599
<v Speaker 2>like I mean, it makes you feel very uncomfortable, and

0:05:27.640 --> 0:05:30.080
<v Speaker 2>I think for me, I went to bed with wild

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:33.039
<v Speaker 2>anxiety after watching it last night. But it's not so

0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:36.080
<v Speaker 2>much scary as what it is just really fucking disturbing,

0:05:36.160 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 2>and the fact that somebody actually sat down and created

0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:42.640
<v Speaker 2>this this came out of someone's mind is just so

0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:44.440
<v Speaker 2>mind blowing in and of itself.

0:05:44.480 --> 0:05:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I think I would still be scared. I don't think

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.680
<v Speaker 1>i've outgrown scream in those things because my tolerance is

0:05:48.720 --> 0:05:50.919
<v Speaker 1>just so low. But do you watch these shows, like

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:52.360
<v Speaker 1>when you watch a foreign show, do you watch it

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:53.839
<v Speaker 1>dubbed or do you watch your subtitled?

0:05:54.040 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 2>This is pretty controversial. Look, I prefer subtitles, but if

0:05:57.120 --> 0:05:59.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing something, I'll watch it dubbed. So last night

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 2>we watched the first two episodes dubbed because we were

0:06:01.960 --> 0:06:03.800
<v Speaker 2>eating and I was like, I want to also be

0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:07.119
<v Speaker 2>able to enjoy my food and not miss anything. And yeah,

0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 2>so I think for like ease of watching, we watched

0:06:09.120 --> 0:06:12.320
<v Speaker 2>it dubbed. But dubbed kind of makes it all feel

0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:14.520
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more comical, Like I think, when you're

0:06:14.520 --> 0:06:16.880
<v Speaker 2>watching it dubbed, it kind of loses an element of

0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:20.039
<v Speaker 2>that suspense and fear because a person's voice doesn't match

0:06:20.080 --> 0:06:22.200
<v Speaker 2>up to their mouth. Two episodes in, I am hook

0:06:22.240 --> 0:06:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Line and Sinker and now I need to know what happens.

0:06:24.200 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>But I also think, and I do think this, and

0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 1>I think this is why you've watched it as well.

0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.000
<v Speaker 1>For sure, it's going to end up being the number

0:06:30.040 --> 0:06:33.680
<v Speaker 1>one modest stream show that Netflix have ever had. But

0:06:33.720 --> 0:06:35.440
<v Speaker 1>I think a lot of people have watching it because

0:06:35.480 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 1>there has been It's everywhere, Like there's been so much

0:06:38.200 --> 0:06:42.120
<v Speaker 1>talk about it. It's everywhere I look. People are talking, tweeting, resharing,

0:06:42.200 --> 0:06:44.840
<v Speaker 1>it's all over every platform, squid games. I think there's

0:06:44.880 --> 0:06:46.800
<v Speaker 1>a lot of people that are like, would never be

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:48.839
<v Speaker 1>interested in it or would never watch it, and they're like,

0:06:48.920 --> 0:06:50.960
<v Speaker 1>all right, fine, like let's just see what the fuss

0:06:51.000 --> 0:06:52.760
<v Speaker 1>is about, which I feel like is probably why you've

0:06:52.800 --> 0:06:55.200
<v Speaker 1>checked into it now, because you're like, probably not saying

0:06:55.240 --> 0:06:58.080
<v Speaker 1>i'd watch I'll probably end up watching it because eventually

0:06:58.160 --> 0:06:59.719
<v Speaker 1>it's going to get the better of me. When everyone's

0:06:59.720 --> 0:07:02.520
<v Speaker 1>talking about something, you're like, Okay, I'm going to have

0:07:02.520 --> 0:07:04.080
<v Speaker 1>to see what the fuss is about. But I reckon

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.479
<v Speaker 1>there's a big chunk of people watching it purely to

0:07:06.480 --> 0:07:09.280
<v Speaker 1>see what everyone else is talking about. It's totally fomo.

0:07:09.360 --> 0:07:10.760
<v Speaker 2>And I think as soon as you start seeing the

0:07:10.800 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 2>memes that are coming out and the jokes, you have

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:14.320
<v Speaker 2>this feeling of like, oh, I don't want to miss

0:07:14.320 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 2>out on this.

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I want to see what's going on. But then you

0:07:16.560 --> 0:07:18.280
<v Speaker 1>check in and you see what's going on, and it's

0:07:18.320 --> 0:07:21.840
<v Speaker 1>actually so so messed up and so chaotic. So I

0:07:21.840 --> 0:07:24.440
<v Speaker 1>don't even know if this is actually a recommendation. I'm

0:07:24.440 --> 0:07:26.120
<v Speaker 1>not going to sit here and recommend that you guys

0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:28.080
<v Speaker 1>should go and watch good games if you haven't already.

0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:30.080
<v Speaker 1>But it's there, everyone's watching it.

0:07:30.080 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 2>It's a thing to do, and I am voluntarily jumped

0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:32.840
<v Speaker 2>on the bandwagon.

0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Okay, maybe I'll force myself to watch one just so

0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:38.120
<v Speaker 1>I can. Maybe just one. Is the first one? Two gruesome?

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:39.720
<v Speaker 1>The first one is that fucked? That's that.

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.600
<v Speaker 2>The second episode is actually really slow moving, I thought,

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:45.840
<v Speaker 2>but the first episode is so maybe that's just it.

0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:46.400
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't.

0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:49.840
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if the gruesomeness adds anything. And I

0:07:49.840 --> 0:07:52.120
<v Speaker 2>don't think we need to see that many people be

0:07:52.200 --> 0:07:54.280
<v Speaker 2>killed in that close range, Like I feel like we've

0:07:54.280 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 2>become desensitized to watching people just get slaughtered.

0:07:57.120 --> 0:08:00.360
<v Speaker 1>It's wild that this is going to be the most

0:08:00.400 --> 0:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>watched Netflix series. It blows my mind. But here we

0:08:03.080 --> 0:08:06.760
<v Speaker 1>are fully the world. We're full of sickos, so sick anyway, guys,

0:08:06.880 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 1>let's get into the questions.

0:08:08.320 --> 0:08:10.360
<v Speaker 2>We have picked out a couple for you guys, today.

0:08:10.400 --> 0:08:12.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, no surprise, it's the same thing every week,

0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 2>has been for two years. But Brittany hit me with

0:08:15.360 --> 0:08:16.360
<v Speaker 2>question number one.

0:08:16.520 --> 0:08:18.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, question number one. My partner and I are both

0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.560
<v Speaker 1>twenty one and have been dating for over four years,

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:24.680
<v Speaker 1>So do the math. That's pretty young. He's absolutely my penguin,

0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:27.400
<v Speaker 1>and I am ridiculously happy and settled in a life

0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:29.840
<v Speaker 1>that we have together. We have spoken a lot about

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 1>marriage and both see it as the next step. I

0:08:32.200 --> 0:08:35.480
<v Speaker 1>feel like I'm absolutely ready for that commitment. However, there

0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 1>is a part of me that worries about the judgment

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:39.840
<v Speaker 1>of my friends. There have been a lot of successful

0:08:39.880 --> 0:08:42.120
<v Speaker 1>young marriages in my family, so I know they will

0:08:42.160 --> 0:08:44.560
<v Speaker 1>be support as well. I'm just not sure about some

0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 1>of my friends. Not that it really matters, but I

0:08:47.040 --> 0:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>would just love to hear your opinion on this. What

0:08:49.280 --> 0:08:51.839
<v Speaker 1>do you think? What are your thoughts on young marriage, Laura?

0:08:51.920 --> 0:08:54.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean, look, I'm not against it. I think

0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:56.080
<v Speaker 2>there is a big part of me that's like, you know,

0:08:56.120 --> 0:08:57.880
<v Speaker 2>you need to experience life. You don't know who you

0:08:57.920 --> 0:09:00.280
<v Speaker 2>are in your early twenties. But that comes from my

0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:02.839
<v Speaker 2>own personal experience. You know, I know how much I've

0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:04.920
<v Speaker 2>changed from being in my early twenties to being in

0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:08.800
<v Speaker 2>my mid thirties. But just because that's my personal reflection

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:11.120
<v Speaker 2>on it, and just because that's my experience doesn't mean

0:09:11.120 --> 0:09:13.439
<v Speaker 2>that it's somebody else's. And if you're in an awesome

0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 2>relationship in your early twenties and you are so lucky

0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.160
<v Speaker 2>that you've met someone who you can grow with, who

0:09:18.240 --> 0:09:21.440
<v Speaker 2>challenges you, who supports you, who you can see and

0:09:21.600 --> 0:09:24.120
<v Speaker 2>know that you're going in the right direction together, then

0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:27.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think that you need to just experience dating

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:28.600
<v Speaker 2>a whole lot of people. You don't need to go

0:09:28.640 --> 0:09:31.599
<v Speaker 2>and experience how fucked up dating can be to appreciate

0:09:31.640 --> 0:09:34.760
<v Speaker 2>something that you already have. It's totally a non essential

0:09:35.120 --> 0:09:36.920
<v Speaker 2>and I think sometimes we put too much pressure on

0:09:36.960 --> 0:09:40.480
<v Speaker 2>this idea that you need to be single to find yourself.

0:09:40.800 --> 0:09:43.000
<v Speaker 2>You can very much find yourself and be in a

0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:45.319
<v Speaker 2>supporting and loving relationship at the same time.

0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:48.600
<v Speaker 1>The key here, the key sentence is what you are

0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:51.760
<v Speaker 1>most worried about is I'm worried what my friends will think.

0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:54.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean, that is the biggest problem here, and it's

0:09:54.200 --> 0:09:58.360
<v Speaker 1>a problem that should be nonexistent. It does not matter

0:09:58.520 --> 0:10:00.880
<v Speaker 1>what your friends think of your decision. To marry the

0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:03.320
<v Speaker 1>person that you love like that is irrelevant. And if

0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:04.960
<v Speaker 1>any of your friends are going to judge you for

0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:06.680
<v Speaker 1>that and not get on board and not be supportive,

0:10:06.800 --> 0:10:08.679
<v Speaker 1>that's the problem. And I would be looking more at

0:10:08.720 --> 0:10:11.839
<v Speaker 1>those kinds of friendships and why you're still in those friendships.

0:10:12.000 --> 0:10:14.400
<v Speaker 1>If you were in an abusive relationship and you were saying, hey,

0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.440
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to marry him and your friends were worried

0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:19.200
<v Speaker 1>about you doing that, that is very different. But you

0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:21.800
<v Speaker 1>are so happy, you're in love, you really want to

0:10:21.800 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>marry the love of your life. I wouldn't worry about

0:10:23.600 --> 0:10:26.199
<v Speaker 1>what your friends think. In regards to what Laura said.

0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:28.959
<v Speaker 1>If you had written in and said, we talk about

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:31.280
<v Speaker 1>marriage and we're pretty happy, but I'm not sure if

0:10:31.320 --> 0:10:33.840
<v Speaker 1>he's the one, That's when I would say, maybe you

0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:36.400
<v Speaker 1>need to think about this really carefully because you are

0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 1>on the border and you're not sure whether he's someone

0:10:38.400 --> 0:10:40.240
<v Speaker 1>you want to commit to. That's when I'd be like,

0:10:40.280 --> 0:10:42.280
<v Speaker 1>maybe you do need to experience life, Maybe you do

0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>need to date some more people, Maybe you do need

0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.720
<v Speaker 1>to figure out who you are. But you sound very

0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:50.000
<v Speaker 1>convinced and confident in your relationship, so I think go

0:10:50.120 --> 0:10:53.520
<v Speaker 1>helpful leather. There are plenty, plenty of long, beautiful love

0:10:53.559 --> 0:10:55.560
<v Speaker 1>in relationships that have been together since they were like

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:58.000
<v Speaker 1>sixteen years old, regardless of age.

0:10:58.040 --> 0:10:59.679
<v Speaker 2>I think that there are the same things that you

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:02.480
<v Speaker 2>need to ask yourself when you're heading into like making

0:11:02.480 --> 0:11:05.040
<v Speaker 2>a big decision of marriage, Like having the big conversations

0:11:05.080 --> 0:11:07.160
<v Speaker 2>around do you guys want to have kids, where do

0:11:07.240 --> 0:11:09.240
<v Speaker 2>you want to live, how do you see your life

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:12.079
<v Speaker 2>looking in the future, Like what are you aiming towards?

0:11:12.120 --> 0:11:15.600
<v Speaker 2>What are your aspirations. Having all of those really big

0:11:15.679 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 2>hard conversations first are what really defined whether it's going

0:11:19.840 --> 0:11:21.840
<v Speaker 2>to be a successful marriage. Whether you guys have your

0:11:21.840 --> 0:11:24.320
<v Speaker 2>five year and your ten year plan mapped out, it

0:11:24.360 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 2>doesn't matter at the end of the day. Sure, maybe

0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:28.240
<v Speaker 2>some of your friends will think, oh, it's a bit

0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.880
<v Speaker 2>weird they got married so young. They're gonna get over it.

0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.640
<v Speaker 2>Loads of people in my friendship, grooves in my life

0:11:33.640 --> 0:11:36.080
<v Speaker 2>got married young, and some of them are still together,

0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:38.880
<v Speaker 2>some of them aren't. You can't predict exactly what's going

0:11:38.960 --> 0:11:40.559
<v Speaker 2>to happen in the next ten years of your life

0:11:40.640 --> 0:11:42.840
<v Speaker 2>or fifteen years of your life. But if you make

0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:45.000
<v Speaker 2>that commitment that you want to get married. I think

0:11:45.040 --> 0:11:48.959
<v Speaker 2>the big thing is regardless of age, is really being

0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:51.960
<v Speaker 2>clear on where you want their relationship to head and

0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:55.240
<v Speaker 2>making sure that you have those big, big conversations. And

0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 2>also I guess it will come with its own set

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 2>of challenges in that you know, you guys are not

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.000
<v Speaker 2>going to be the same people that you are now

0:12:02.200 --> 0:12:04.280
<v Speaker 2>in ten years time. You will do a lot of

0:12:04.320 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 2>personal development in your twenties. We all do, like we

0:12:07.280 --> 0:12:10.880
<v Speaker 2>all experience and grow so much in our twenties. It's

0:12:10.920 --> 0:12:14.320
<v Speaker 2>a time of huge, huge change for so many people.

0:12:14.679 --> 0:12:17.800
<v Speaker 2>But that doesn't mean that that change can't happen alongside

0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:20.200
<v Speaker 2>someone and it doesn't mean that you can't grow together

0:12:20.760 --> 0:12:23.800
<v Speaker 2>and be a great relationship and have a great relationship

0:12:23.840 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 2>at the same time. So if your only thing and

0:12:26.440 --> 0:12:28.560
<v Speaker 2>your only barrier is what people will think of you

0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 2>getting married young, I just think be super clear with

0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:33.160
<v Speaker 2>your intentions and who cares what people think?

0:12:33.440 --> 0:12:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Amen, sister. I wouldn't have been nice to just meet

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:39.400
<v Speaker 1>someone early and just like cut out all the fucking bullshit.

0:12:39.600 --> 0:12:43.040
<v Speaker 2>My first boyfriend from eighteen until twenty three was an angel,

0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:43.880
<v Speaker 2>and then I just.

0:12:43.880 --> 0:12:47.439
<v Speaker 1>Dated so much shit after that. Like if only I

0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:49.520
<v Speaker 1>had known what I knew then. I was like, this

0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:51.959
<v Speaker 1>is what relationships should be. But I then kind of

0:12:52.000 --> 0:12:53.960
<v Speaker 1>got a bit bored and then dated some other people,

0:12:54.000 --> 0:12:55.480
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I really need to fuck things

0:12:55.520 --> 0:12:58.440
<v Speaker 1>up before it gets good again. Honestly, my relationship from

0:12:58.800 --> 0:13:04.200
<v Speaker 1>sixteen to like twenty three was what dreams made of

0:13:04.320 --> 0:13:08.720
<v Speaker 1>Like in hindsight, like he was such a he was

0:13:08.840 --> 0:13:10.800
<v Speaker 1>just such a nice guy. But for me, and it's

0:13:10.840 --> 0:13:14.120
<v Speaker 1>exactly what you said, Laura, you do grow so much

0:13:14.200 --> 0:13:16.360
<v Speaker 1>in your twenties, like one hundred percent, I am a

0:13:16.360 --> 0:13:19.000
<v Speaker 1>different person. Some people are lucky enough to grow together

0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:21.240
<v Speaker 1>and grow in the same direction and on the same path.

0:13:21.600 --> 0:13:24.880
<v Speaker 1>For me, this person he was still he still is incredible.

0:13:24.920 --> 0:13:27.360
<v Speaker 1>He's just such a great human. But our paths diverged

0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:29.560
<v Speaker 1>and where we were heading and what we wanted from

0:13:29.600 --> 0:13:31.560
<v Speaker 1>our life was different, even though we loved each other.

0:13:31.600 --> 0:13:34.240
<v Speaker 1>And that's just something for us. It didn't work young

0:13:34.440 --> 0:13:36.480
<v Speaker 1>after eight years, but that doesn't mean it's not for you.

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.560
<v Speaker 2>And also the last thing I want to say on

0:13:38.559 --> 0:13:40.960
<v Speaker 2>this as well, is like, sometimes when you are young

0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:44.480
<v Speaker 2>and you're in a good relationship, you don't necessarily value

0:13:44.480 --> 0:13:46.920
<v Speaker 2>how good it is or what you're getting from that person.

0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Because you because you don't know, You don't know, you

0:13:48.800 --> 0:13:50.959
<v Speaker 2>don't have a point of comparison. You think that you're

0:13:51.000 --> 0:13:53.800
<v Speaker 2>supposed to experience dating lots of people. You think that

0:13:53.840 --> 0:13:56.240
<v Speaker 2>you're supposed to put yourself out there. And look, I

0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:59.360
<v Speaker 2>do think that there are so many benefits from meeting

0:13:59.360 --> 0:14:02.280
<v Speaker 2>a variety of people, from dating, from kind of learning

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:03.160
<v Speaker 2>the life lessons.

0:14:03.520 --> 0:14:06.200
<v Speaker 1>But if you don't, you don't need to subject.

0:14:05.760 --> 0:14:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Yourself to dating shitty people or to like sleeping around

0:14:08.840 --> 0:14:11.120
<v Speaker 2>in order to learn those lessons. If you're already in

0:14:11.200 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 2>a great space and you're already happy, then it just

0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:16.760
<v Speaker 2>means you buy. You skipped all the bullshit that so

0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:18.680
<v Speaker 2>many of us get to a point that we're trying

0:14:18.720 --> 0:14:19.800
<v Speaker 2>to avoid it one hundred percent.

0:14:19.880 --> 0:14:21.600
<v Speaker 1>But again that comes with age. But you do, you

0:14:21.640 --> 0:14:24.240
<v Speaker 1>get married, Congratulations and I hope you live a happy life.

0:14:25.680 --> 0:14:28.080
<v Speaker 1>Invite us to the wedding. Okay, Question number two, Hey,

0:14:28.120 --> 0:14:31.280
<v Speaker 1>question number two is it's a little bit different. This

0:14:31.320 --> 0:14:35.960
<v Speaker 1>has come in from a wife whose husband has literally

0:14:36.040 --> 0:14:38.520
<v Speaker 1>asked her to write it in. They're having a disagreement

0:14:38.640 --> 0:14:41.040
<v Speaker 1>in the bedroom and he has said, well, I think

0:14:41.080 --> 0:14:43.520
<v Speaker 1>you need to ask the life uncut girl. So that's

0:14:43.560 --> 0:14:46.440
<v Speaker 1>why I think this one's interesting. My husband recently got

0:14:46.480 --> 0:14:49.320
<v Speaker 1>fixed up, so he obviously got the chop. Now we

0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:52.120
<v Speaker 1>obviously have a lot of unprotected sex. Wait, when you

0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:53.800
<v Speaker 1>see the chop, you make it sound like he had

0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:58.480
<v Speaker 1>his bulls cut off. He did, he was cartrated. We

0:14:58.720 --> 0:15:01.960
<v Speaker 1>took my husband to get into He obviously got a resection. Me. Yeah,

0:15:01.960 --> 0:15:05.360
<v Speaker 1>he didn't get these balls, he didn't get carcerated. Now

0:15:05.360 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 1>we obviously have a lot of unprotected sex. After he comes,

0:15:08.640 --> 0:15:11.160
<v Speaker 1>I really want him to go down on me, but

0:15:11.280 --> 0:15:13.960
<v Speaker 1>he flat out refuses to basically lick his own com

0:15:14.360 --> 0:15:16.640
<v Speaker 1>Is this a normal request from me? Does anyone else

0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:18.640
<v Speaker 1>do this? Or is it just a weird, kinky thing

0:15:18.640 --> 0:15:21.240
<v Speaker 1>that I'd like to try. My husband knows how much

0:15:21.280 --> 0:15:22.880
<v Speaker 1>I listen to you guys, and he told me to

0:15:22.920 --> 0:15:25.960
<v Speaker 1>ask you guys. He's dying to hear you tell him

0:15:25.960 --> 0:15:28.280
<v Speaker 1>that it's weird. I would just love to hear your thoughts.

0:15:28.320 --> 0:15:30.200
<v Speaker 1>Am I alone in wanting my husband to go down

0:15:30.200 --> 0:15:34.880
<v Speaker 1>to me after he's coming me. I just love this

0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:37.600
<v Speaker 1>question so much because there's like so many lights the

0:15:37.680 --> 0:15:39.600
<v Speaker 1>semi lays, So my favorite part is the fact that

0:15:39.600 --> 0:15:42.880
<v Speaker 1>the husband's like ask the girls like Laura and Brittany

0:15:42.880 --> 0:15:45.800
<v Speaker 1>will know what to do. Dear God, I think nothing

0:15:45.920 --> 0:15:48.320
<v Speaker 1>is weird, Like, nothing is weird so long as both

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:51.040
<v Speaker 1>people are accepting of it for starters, right, Like if

0:15:51.080 --> 0:15:53.200
<v Speaker 1>he was all down for it, then it wouldn't be weird.

0:15:53.280 --> 0:15:56.760
<v Speaker 1>Clearly it's weird to him, and that's also okay. I

0:15:56.840 --> 0:16:00.720
<v Speaker 1>do find it pretty interesting when a guy wants you

0:16:00.840 --> 0:16:04.200
<v Speaker 1>to go down on him but is absolutely adverse to ever,

0:16:04.960 --> 0:16:07.160
<v Speaker 1>like he's not okay with his own jiz. Do you

0:16:07.200 --> 0:16:07.520
<v Speaker 1>know what I mean?

0:16:07.520 --> 0:16:10.160
<v Speaker 2>Like, there's so many guys who don't want to go

0:16:10.200 --> 0:16:11.800
<v Speaker 2>down on you afterwards, or they don't want to like

0:16:11.880 --> 0:16:13.000
<v Speaker 2>even get it near them.

0:16:13.080 --> 0:16:15.200
<v Speaker 1>Because their penis has already been there, but they're like

0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:16.880
<v Speaker 1>quite happy for you to put it in your mouth.

0:16:16.920 --> 0:16:19.200
<v Speaker 1>It's like, dude, if it's not okay for your mouth,

0:16:19.200 --> 0:16:21.600
<v Speaker 1>it shouldn't be okay for mine. That's like this is

0:16:21.640 --> 0:16:23.960
<v Speaker 1>a benchmark. What's good enough for you is good enough

0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:25.680
<v Speaker 1>for me. I do think there is a different level

0:16:25.720 --> 0:16:31.080
<v Speaker 1>of expectations there. But also, I mean, it's not like

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:32.880
<v Speaker 1>you're drinking. You're not asking him to drink a cup

0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:36.080
<v Speaker 1>of it. You're not like, here, have a go. I

0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:37.800
<v Speaker 1>think it would be nice if he would give it

0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:41.560
<v Speaker 1>a try. But I also very strongly think that if

0:16:41.560 --> 0:16:44.040
<v Speaker 1>someone's against something in the bedroom, you can't force them

0:16:44.040 --> 0:16:45.920
<v Speaker 1>to do it. And if there's something about this that

0:16:45.960 --> 0:16:49.720
<v Speaker 1>he's uncomfortable with, and he's explained why he's uncomfortable, then

0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:51.760
<v Speaker 1>I kind of think you have to be accepting of that.

0:16:51.920 --> 0:16:55.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that you can really like coerce or

0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 1>guilt your partner into going down on you. Yeah, I think.

0:16:59.160 --> 0:17:00.880
<v Speaker 1>And the thing is not even that you're trying to

0:17:00.880 --> 0:17:02.680
<v Speaker 1>guilty me into going down And I don't think that's

0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:04.760
<v Speaker 1>his problem. It doesn't sound like that's his problem. The

0:17:04.880 --> 0:17:06.720
<v Speaker 1>problem is that you want him to do it when

0:17:07.000 --> 0:17:10.720
<v Speaker 1>he's just ejaculated inside of you and it's still there.

0:17:11.600 --> 0:17:13.560
<v Speaker 1>Everything Laura said is right. We talk about this all

0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:15.359
<v Speaker 1>the time. Whatever you want to do in the bedroom

0:17:15.440 --> 0:17:17.439
<v Speaker 1>is what you want to do. Nothing is weird something.

0:17:17.560 --> 0:17:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Sure they're not as common in other relationships, but that

0:17:20.000 --> 0:17:23.000
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean it's not right, doesn't mean it's wrong. It's

0:17:23.080 --> 0:17:26.040
<v Speaker 1>whatever you guys are comfortable with. In this instance. All

0:17:26.040 --> 0:17:29.040
<v Speaker 1>I can do is think about what I would do.

0:17:29.200 --> 0:17:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Would I ask that, would I expect that, because that's

0:17:31.119 --> 0:17:33.200
<v Speaker 1>what you've said, would you girls expect this? I would

0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:35.560
<v Speaker 1>love to hear your thoughts. For me, I wouldn't ask

0:17:35.600 --> 0:17:38.960
<v Speaker 1>my partner to do that, and I can understand why

0:17:39.000 --> 0:17:40.840
<v Speaker 1>he wouldn't. And like you said, Laura, like why the

0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:44.960
<v Speaker 1>expectations different. They shouldn't be. But I for me, if

0:17:45.000 --> 0:17:46.840
<v Speaker 1>I would ask one thing and if my partner said,

0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:49.080
<v Speaker 1>like I'm not comfortable to do that, it's just something

0:17:49.080 --> 0:17:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that I wouldn't push. So I think maybe you guys

0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:53.720
<v Speaker 1>need to come to a compromise. Maybe you can say

0:17:53.960 --> 0:17:55.320
<v Speaker 1>I just love it when you go down on me,

0:17:55.400 --> 0:17:57.800
<v Speaker 1>but he does it before he comes. I've got my

0:17:57.920 --> 0:17:59.359
<v Speaker 1>hand up. Okay, Okay.

0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.800
<v Speaker 2>My question here is, Britt, would you go down on

0:18:01.840 --> 0:18:03.920
<v Speaker 2>a guy after you've been having sex for a while,

0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:06.080
<v Speaker 2>so like, if he was having sex with you and

0:18:06.119 --> 0:18:09.159
<v Speaker 2>then pulled out, would you then still go down on

0:18:09.240 --> 0:18:11.359
<v Speaker 2>him or you like, no, I don't want that in

0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:11.760
<v Speaker 2>my mouth.

0:18:11.960 --> 0:18:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but this is why the expectations. That's why I said,

0:18:14.280 --> 0:18:17.160
<v Speaker 1>there's almost like this difference in expectations. I also think

0:18:17.160 --> 0:18:19.320
<v Speaker 1>it has to do with I think for a lot

0:18:19.320 --> 0:18:21.440
<v Speaker 1>of people has to do with like the we're getting

0:18:21.560 --> 0:18:24.720
<v Speaker 1>very in depthy but the literal consistency and like what

0:18:24.880 --> 0:18:27.560
<v Speaker 1>it is because I feel like men's ejaculation is very

0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:30.160
<v Speaker 1>different to women's. I'm like, you can't argue that totally.

0:18:30.200 --> 0:18:32.320
<v Speaker 1>But I also think it's so unfair for a guy

0:18:32.480 --> 0:18:35.439
<v Speaker 1>to expect a female or any of their relationships or

0:18:35.440 --> 0:18:39.000
<v Speaker 1>partners to be okay with their semen if they're not

0:18:39.040 --> 0:18:42.200
<v Speaker 1>okay with it, Like, and this is my question is

0:18:42.200 --> 0:18:43.919
<v Speaker 1>is if he says to you, babe, I don't care

0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:46.040
<v Speaker 1>if you don't swallow, like I don't, I don't expect

0:18:46.080 --> 0:18:48.359
<v Speaker 1>you to. If he's like I genuinely think it's a

0:18:48.359 --> 0:18:51.240
<v Speaker 1>bit gross for you and for me and for everyone

0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:53.359
<v Speaker 1>I don't like it, then I would be like, cool,

0:18:53.400 --> 0:18:56.800
<v Speaker 1>that's okay. But if he is saying he thinks you

0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:59.080
<v Speaker 1>should swallow, he wants you to go down on him,

0:18:59.080 --> 0:19:01.359
<v Speaker 1>he thinks you should have absolutely no problem with his seemen,

0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:04.080
<v Speaker 1>that he thinks it's gross, I think it's such an

0:19:04.200 --> 0:19:07.879
<v Speaker 1>unfair and weird disparity that we are okay with, Like

0:19:07.960 --> 0:19:11.240
<v Speaker 1>why are we okay with a guy thinking that that's gross?

0:19:11.320 --> 0:19:13.680
<v Speaker 2>Because I think on the flip side, if a girl

0:19:13.760 --> 0:19:16.320
<v Speaker 2>was to say, oh, I don't want anything to do

0:19:16.400 --> 0:19:18.840
<v Speaker 2>with it after he's put it inside me, I think

0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:22.960
<v Speaker 2>that that would be seen as more unusual than for

0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:26.080
<v Speaker 2>a guy. I do also question as to whether this

0:19:26.200 --> 0:19:31.879
<v Speaker 2>plays into our social perspectives around heteronormity and around like

0:19:32.160 --> 0:19:37.639
<v Speaker 2>what is and isn't homosexual or emasculating. I wonder if

0:19:37.680 --> 0:19:40.200
<v Speaker 2>there is something that's been very much ingrained in us

0:19:40.440 --> 0:19:42.680
<v Speaker 2>that if a guy is okay with that, then there

0:19:42.720 --> 0:19:45.520
<v Speaker 2>must be some homosexual tendencies there. Why is it that

0:19:45.560 --> 0:19:48.199
<v Speaker 2>there's this expectation that women would be okay with their

0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:52.080
<v Speaker 2>own discharge, but men find there's okay for women but

0:19:52.359 --> 0:19:54.720
<v Speaker 2>gross for themselves. I think that there's more to unpack

0:19:54.800 --> 0:19:56.760
<v Speaker 2>it from like a social perspective as well.

0:19:56.840 --> 0:19:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, totally, and I mean, like way too deep. You're

0:19:58.960 --> 0:20:02.160
<v Speaker 1>taking this way too deep, guys, you really did, Laura.

0:20:02.400 --> 0:20:04.199
<v Speaker 1>But I think what it comes down to here is

0:20:04.240 --> 0:20:07.840
<v Speaker 1>the same thing in any relationship and any situation in

0:20:07.880 --> 0:20:10.760
<v Speaker 1>the bedroom, if somebody is not comfortable with something, it's

0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:13.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty much irrelevant what it is. It doesn't really matter

0:20:13.640 --> 0:20:16.600
<v Speaker 1>if you think it should be okay or if other

0:20:16.600 --> 0:20:18.640
<v Speaker 1>people in your life have found it okay. The fact

0:20:18.680 --> 0:20:20.959
<v Speaker 1>of the matter is that in that moment, in that relationship,

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:23.840
<v Speaker 1>in that situation, someone has said Hey, I'm uncomfortable doing this.

0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:25.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do it, and I think that

0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:28.000
<v Speaker 1>that's it. You've just got to come to an agreement

0:20:28.280 --> 0:20:30.720
<v Speaker 1>and respect your partner's decisions. So as much as you

0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:32.879
<v Speaker 1>would love him to do that, maybe you can just

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:35.240
<v Speaker 1>ask him to do it before he finishes so he

0:20:35.320 --> 0:20:37.040
<v Speaker 1>might be more comfortable in doing that and then just

0:20:37.080 --> 0:20:39.479
<v Speaker 1>come home with a bang. Technically, it would also be

0:20:39.560 --> 0:20:43.080
<v Speaker 1>pretty messy, like imagine slamming your face into that when

0:20:43.080 --> 0:20:45.240
<v Speaker 1>it's full. There's a lot going on. It's a lot.

0:20:45.359 --> 0:20:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Do you know what I kick I get it. I

0:20:46.760 --> 0:20:49.359
<v Speaker 2>get why he doesn't want to do it. I understand

0:20:49.720 --> 0:20:51.439
<v Speaker 2>you know what that sucks for you If that's like

0:20:51.480 --> 0:20:53.400
<v Speaker 2>the one kink that wants to get that you need

0:20:53.440 --> 0:20:55.600
<v Speaker 2>to get off on. But at the same time, I

0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:57.040
<v Speaker 2>can see this from both perspectives.

0:20:57.240 --> 0:20:58.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, So if you don't want him to hear that,

0:20:58.960 --> 0:21:00.800
<v Speaker 1>don't just tell him what do you and answer the question.

0:21:01.320 --> 0:21:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Don't let him listen to the podcast. Okay, next question, Okay,

0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:08.920
<v Speaker 1>question number three. Let's get into this one. Now.

0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:10.879
<v Speaker 2>We had a couple of questions that were similar to

0:21:10.920 --> 0:21:13.879
<v Speaker 2>this this week, all around loud sex. Some of them

0:21:13.880 --> 0:21:16.280
<v Speaker 2>were in regards to their housemaids. But the one I'm

0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:18.280
<v Speaker 2>going with is in regards to a neighbor, so I

0:21:18.280 --> 0:21:19.840
<v Speaker 2>think that the advice is slightly different.

0:21:19.880 --> 0:21:21.520
<v Speaker 1>But here we go. So the guy who lives in

0:21:21.560 --> 0:21:24.840
<v Speaker 1>the apartment below mine has sex with his girlfriend every night,

0:21:25.040 --> 0:21:29.040
<v Speaker 1>and and she is so so loud, like so loud,

0:21:29.200 --> 0:21:30.320
<v Speaker 1>like screaming loud.

0:21:30.720 --> 0:21:32.879
<v Speaker 2>That's all I can hear. And when I'm asleep, it

0:21:32.920 --> 0:21:35.240
<v Speaker 2>wakes me up. Sometimes it even wakes the dog up too.

0:21:35.600 --> 0:21:37.840
<v Speaker 2>They're at it now whilst I'm typing this. There is

0:21:37.880 --> 0:21:41.000
<v Speaker 2>literally no peace, and it goes on for ages.

0:21:41.560 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 1>I love that it's happening in real time and it

0:21:44.320 --> 0:21:45.280
<v Speaker 1>goes on for ages.

0:21:45.400 --> 0:21:47.720
<v Speaker 2>Am I being a bitter old cow because I'm single

0:21:47.800 --> 0:21:49.560
<v Speaker 2>and not getting any or do I have a right

0:21:49.720 --> 0:21:52.480
<v Speaker 2>to not hear extremely loud sex and moaning when I'm

0:21:52.480 --> 0:21:55.359
<v Speaker 2>trying to sleep almost every night? If it's the latter,

0:21:55.760 --> 0:21:58.159
<v Speaker 2>how on earth do I approach the subject? Do I

0:21:58.200 --> 0:22:00.720
<v Speaker 2>write a note? Do I leave under the door face

0:22:00.760 --> 0:22:03.240
<v Speaker 2>to face? Do I publicly shame him in the Buildings

0:22:03.280 --> 0:22:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Facebook group? I won't do that, But what are my options?

0:22:06.600 --> 0:22:07.919
<v Speaker 1>Guys? How can I bring this up?

0:22:08.040 --> 0:22:10.360
<v Speaker 2>Or how can I enjoy my evenings again without having

0:22:10.440 --> 0:22:13.320
<v Speaker 2>to listen to my neighbor having outrageous sex.

0:22:13.760 --> 0:22:15.479
<v Speaker 1>She's even written, do I dob him into the real

0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:18.199
<v Speaker 1>estate agent? I mean not the real estate agent's going

0:22:18.240 --> 0:22:20.679
<v Speaker 1>to tell you to go get laid. I think that

0:22:20.960 --> 0:22:22.520
<v Speaker 1>this is pretty common and we do get it a lot,

0:22:22.560 --> 0:22:23.640
<v Speaker 1>and I have a lot of friends that I've talked

0:22:23.640 --> 0:22:26.919
<v Speaker 1>about it. I have been in this situation, especially in Okay,

0:22:26.920 --> 0:22:29.720
<v Speaker 1>for example, where we live in Bondaire in Sydney, and

0:22:29.760 --> 0:22:32.800
<v Speaker 1>this is in a lot of high density city areas.

0:22:33.160 --> 0:22:35.840
<v Speaker 1>It's just apartment on apartment on apartment next to apartment.

0:22:35.880 --> 0:22:37.960
<v Speaker 1>They're all old, they're all thin walls. Like you hear

0:22:38.240 --> 0:22:40.919
<v Speaker 1>this a lot, and hey, hats off to them. They're

0:22:40.960 --> 0:22:43.080
<v Speaker 1>living their best life. You know that they're both getting

0:22:43.080 --> 0:22:45.960
<v Speaker 1>some really good sex. Hopefully you're getting that too. Can

0:22:46.000 --> 0:22:48.080
<v Speaker 1>you complain if it's just like here and there? I

0:22:48.119 --> 0:22:49.800
<v Speaker 1>don't think so. I think like you've got to let

0:22:49.800 --> 0:22:51.560
<v Speaker 1>them live their life. You might have to suck it up,

0:22:51.720 --> 0:22:54.320
<v Speaker 1>put some headphones in, just get on with it, turn

0:22:54.359 --> 0:22:59.160
<v Speaker 1>the TV up a bit louder. If this is happening religiously,

0:22:59.680 --> 0:23:02.280
<v Speaker 1>not after night after night, and if it's going for

0:23:02.320 --> 0:23:04.800
<v Speaker 1>a really long time, and it's really interrupting your sleep,

0:23:04.840 --> 0:23:08.720
<v Speaker 1>and it's like disgustingly obnoxiously like poor no loud, Like

0:23:08.760 --> 0:23:11.760
<v Speaker 1>it's not just like the thumping. If it's like full

0:23:11.880 --> 0:23:14.879
<v Speaker 1>on screaming and moaning, which it sounds like it is.

0:23:14.960 --> 0:23:17.520
<v Speaker 1>Can you do an example for us on example of

0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:19.840
<v Speaker 1>the thumb, but I'm not example of the moaning. But

0:23:19.920 --> 0:23:21.720
<v Speaker 1>if it's like that, then I think, and it's really

0:23:21.760 --> 0:23:23.720
<v Speaker 1>getting you're not gonna be the only one that is bothering.

0:23:23.760 --> 0:23:25.760
<v Speaker 1>I think you can definitely say something. Now. Do you

0:23:25.800 --> 0:23:28.240
<v Speaker 1>out him to the Facebook group? Absolutely not. Do you

0:23:28.240 --> 0:23:31.679
<v Speaker 1>tell the real estate absolutely not. What I would probably

0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:36.040
<v Speaker 1>do is make a funny, ingest kind of note, like

0:23:36.080 --> 0:23:38.920
<v Speaker 1>so I would make a note that is somewhat humorous,

0:23:38.960 --> 0:23:41.200
<v Speaker 1>like I'm so stoked that you're living your best life

0:23:41.240 --> 0:23:44.159
<v Speaker 1>and like you're obviously doing something right. I would make

0:23:44.160 --> 0:23:45.679
<v Speaker 1>a bit of a joke like that and say, but

0:23:46.720 --> 0:23:48.520
<v Speaker 1>it's really hard to sleep in this building with that

0:23:48.600 --> 0:23:50.159
<v Speaker 1>every night. Do you think there's a way that you

0:23:50.160 --> 0:23:52.640
<v Speaker 1>could keep it down? It can be anonymous unless you're

0:23:52.640 --> 0:23:54.400
<v Speaker 1>in an apartment of two, unless you're in a townhouse

0:23:54.400 --> 0:23:56.840
<v Speaker 1>and they know it's you. But I thought I would do.

0:23:56.840 --> 0:23:58.840
<v Speaker 1>I would just like make it a little bit lighthearted,

0:23:58.920 --> 0:24:01.080
<v Speaker 1>because you don't want to start something, but you also

0:24:01.119 --> 0:24:02.680
<v Speaker 1>want to get your message across. And I think if

0:24:02.720 --> 0:24:04.800
<v Speaker 1>you propping them up a bit, being like, you know,

0:24:04.920 --> 0:24:08.280
<v Speaker 1>you are obviously doing something right in the bedroom, it

0:24:08.520 --> 0:24:10.119
<v Speaker 1>softens a blow a little bit and makes it a

0:24:10.160 --> 0:24:12.520
<v Speaker 1>little bit less embarrassing. But I would make it anonymous.

0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:14.080
<v Speaker 1>I would make it a bit humorous and cute, but

0:24:14.119 --> 0:24:15.800
<v Speaker 1>get your message across. That is what I would do,

0:24:15.840 --> 0:24:17.120
<v Speaker 1>and then I'd go get laid.

0:24:19.359 --> 0:24:21.520
<v Speaker 2>Look, I agree, but I also like the one thing

0:24:21.560 --> 0:24:23.240
<v Speaker 2>I agree with from that is that you have to

0:24:23.280 --> 0:24:26.439
<v Speaker 2>make it kind of lighthearted, because if you don't make

0:24:26.480 --> 0:24:29.679
<v Speaker 2>it lighthearted, if I received a letter this makes me

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:31.400
<v Speaker 2>sounding like a dickcare but I'm gonna go for it anyway.

0:24:31.680 --> 0:24:33.920
<v Speaker 2>If I received a letter that was like, I'm really

0:24:33.960 --> 0:24:35.960
<v Speaker 2>angry that I can hear you having sex, and it

0:24:36.040 --> 0:24:39.560
<v Speaker 2>was like real bitchy from my neighbor, it wouldn't motivate

0:24:39.600 --> 0:24:40.320
<v Speaker 2>me to be quieter.

0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:42.880
<v Speaker 1>Put it that way, it would be worse. It would

0:24:42.880 --> 0:24:45.160
<v Speaker 1>make me so angry and be like, oh my god,

0:24:45.200 --> 0:24:47.440
<v Speaker 1>my bitter neighbor who's so old and doesn't have sex

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:50.840
<v Speaker 1>and it's an angry, sexually deprived person. It would make

0:24:50.920 --> 0:24:55.640
<v Speaker 1>me turn up the theatrics tenfold and just me so much.

0:24:55.800 --> 0:24:58.439
<v Speaker 1>You go for the oscar, fucking go for God. Oh guys,

0:24:58.920 --> 0:25:01.560
<v Speaker 1>this is my time to shine. So I agree.

0:25:01.600 --> 0:25:04.280
<v Speaker 2>I think you can obviously write a note exactly like

0:25:04.320 --> 0:25:07.640
<v Speaker 2>Britz said. I do think you can maybe try some

0:25:07.760 --> 0:25:11.639
<v Speaker 2>like noise canceling headphones or get some ear plugs first, like,

0:25:11.680 --> 0:25:13.480
<v Speaker 2>there are other things that you can do in your

0:25:13.520 --> 0:25:16.560
<v Speaker 2>own space to try and minimize how much somebody else

0:25:16.960 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 2>in another apartment is upsetting you before you kind of

0:25:19.280 --> 0:25:20.080
<v Speaker 2>go out of your way.

0:25:20.280 --> 0:25:22.600
<v Speaker 1>But you have to keep it lighthearted. There's a very

0:25:22.600 --> 0:25:25.560
<v Speaker 1>good possibility that they don't know, they don't realize that

0:25:25.640 --> 0:25:27.840
<v Speaker 1>you can hear them. I think that that would probably

0:25:27.880 --> 0:25:31.480
<v Speaker 1>be the more common option ber is, is that they think.

0:25:31.280 --> 0:25:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Maybe you can hear them, and they genuinely don't care.

0:25:33.880 --> 0:25:36.679
<v Speaker 2>So even if you do say, hey, guys, like I

0:25:36.720 --> 0:25:39.560
<v Speaker 2>can hear you having loud sex, they may not want

0:25:39.560 --> 0:25:41.639
<v Speaker 2>to change the way that they have sex. Maybe she

0:25:41.680 --> 0:25:43.560
<v Speaker 2>doesn't realize she's being loud, maybe she doesn't care that

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:46.480
<v Speaker 2>she's being loud. But I think there's no harm in

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:48.199
<v Speaker 2>putting it out there. I just think you have to

0:25:48.200 --> 0:25:50.600
<v Speaker 2>live in this building with these people you're going to see.

0:25:50.600 --> 0:25:53.800
<v Speaker 2>These people don't create an environment that makes you uncomfortable

0:25:54.040 --> 0:25:57.520
<v Speaker 2>or them uncomfortable when they are your neighbors. I just

0:25:57.560 --> 0:26:00.159
<v Speaker 2>think what I would do, And I mean, I like

0:26:00.200 --> 0:26:02.240
<v Speaker 2>to think I'm a considerate person, But if I got that.

0:26:02.200 --> 0:26:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Message, my feeling would be embarrassment. I wouldn't say, fuck you,

0:26:05.359 --> 0:26:07.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm turning up the theatricals. I'm going for the LOGI

0:26:08.080 --> 0:26:11.199
<v Speaker 1>watch this performance, sit back at your popcorn. I wouldn't

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:13.440
<v Speaker 1>do that. They're not even having sex. They're just sitting

0:26:13.480 --> 0:26:17.040
<v Speaker 1>on the couch, screaming on purpose, watching squid Game exactly.

0:26:17.880 --> 0:26:19.600
<v Speaker 1>But I think that I would feel embarrassed and I

0:26:19.600 --> 0:26:21.200
<v Speaker 1>would try and tone it down. You're not gonna stop.

0:26:21.200 --> 0:26:23.280
<v Speaker 1>They're not gonna stop having sex, Like no one's ever

0:26:23.320 --> 0:26:25.400
<v Speaker 1>gonna do that. But maybe they just weren't aware how

0:26:25.440 --> 0:26:27.679
<v Speaker 1>thin the walls are. Like I guess you just don't know.

0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:29.959
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, if they don't stop, that's something you've got

0:26:30.000 --> 0:26:31.560
<v Speaker 1>to think about. Are you happy to live like that?

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to move out? Do you want to

0:26:32.960 --> 0:26:35.560
<v Speaker 1>think of something else? But when push comes to sharp,

0:26:35.560 --> 0:26:37.680
<v Speaker 1>you can't physically go in and rip them apart and say,

0:26:37.680 --> 0:26:39.840
<v Speaker 1>like you in that corner. You can't put the hoes

0:26:39.880 --> 0:26:41.720
<v Speaker 1>on them like their dogs. So I think you'd have

0:26:41.800 --> 0:26:45.560
<v Speaker 1>to put the cute, little funny, semi funny anonymous letter

0:26:45.600 --> 0:26:47.400
<v Speaker 1>to slide under their door. If you're worried that they'll

0:26:47.400 --> 0:26:50.720
<v Speaker 1>figure out your handwriting, type it up, make it. But

0:26:50.760 --> 0:26:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I think make it like a funny letter, and that's

0:26:52.960 --> 0:26:54.960
<v Speaker 1>what That is the route that I would be going down.

0:26:55.000 --> 0:26:57.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, but you think the letter has to be anonymous.

0:26:57.040 --> 0:26:58.960
<v Speaker 2>You wouldn't put your name to it. You wouldn't say, hey,

0:26:59.040 --> 0:27:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Apartment seven, you guys are banging on my wall. No,

0:27:03.119 --> 0:27:04.840
<v Speaker 2>I would want to make it more anonymous because otherwise

0:27:04.840 --> 0:27:06.520
<v Speaker 2>I would have this weird like eye contact when I

0:27:06.520 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 2>passed him in the stairwell, I'd be like.

0:27:08.080 --> 0:27:10.879
<v Speaker 1>Morning, Hope last night was good. Yeah, you sounded like

0:27:10.880 --> 0:27:12.720
<v Speaker 1>you had a great time. Or just go around and

0:27:12.760 --> 0:27:15.760
<v Speaker 1>collect like signatures from everybody in the in the apartment building.

0:27:15.840 --> 0:27:19.840
<v Speaker 1>Here's a petition. Look, we've organized a petition. You could

0:27:19.880 --> 0:27:21.000
<v Speaker 1>also do that. Okay.

0:27:21.080 --> 0:27:22.920
<v Speaker 2>So I used to live in Paddington. I used to

0:27:22.960 --> 0:27:25.680
<v Speaker 2>live in a tiny one bedroom apartment like it was

0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:28.280
<v Speaker 2>a one bedroom studio apartment didn't even have any internal

0:27:28.320 --> 0:27:31.040
<v Speaker 2>walls except for the war with the toilet, and all

0:27:31.119 --> 0:27:33.439
<v Speaker 2>of the apartments in this building were the same. I

0:27:33.520 --> 0:27:37.800
<v Speaker 2>lived directly below a couple and she was this tiny, little,

0:27:37.840 --> 0:27:42.240
<v Speaker 2>like five foot blonde, petite little thing. He was a giant,

0:27:42.520 --> 0:27:45.760
<v Speaker 2>and she used to scream like she was being murdered.

0:27:45.880 --> 0:27:49.040
<v Speaker 2>She used to scream the house down, scream every night

0:27:49.200 --> 0:27:50.520
<v Speaker 2>like it was exactly this.

0:27:50.680 --> 0:27:53.080
<v Speaker 1>It was so wild, and what did you do? Nothing?

0:27:53.400 --> 0:27:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I just listened. I just recorded it.

0:27:59.040 --> 0:28:01.200
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't bring myself to do anything. I didn't want

0:28:01.200 --> 0:28:04.679
<v Speaker 2>to make them embarrassed. I felt wildly uncomfortable by it.

0:28:04.760 --> 0:28:06.440
<v Speaker 1>But I was also in my early twenties, and I

0:28:06.520 --> 0:28:10.000
<v Speaker 1>think back then having like difficult conversations. I felt really

0:28:10.040 --> 0:28:12.600
<v Speaker 1>like I wanted to avoid conflict. They think the way

0:28:12.640 --> 0:28:15.760
<v Speaker 1>that you've described this is like an anonymous letter. Hopefully

0:28:15.800 --> 0:28:17.359
<v Speaker 1>you don't get caught putting it under their door.

0:28:17.760 --> 0:28:20.159
<v Speaker 2>Keep it super lighthearted, which is like, I'm so happy

0:28:20.160 --> 0:28:22.480
<v Speaker 2>you guys are getting some I'm a little bit jealous,

0:28:22.520 --> 0:28:26.080
<v Speaker 2>but also like it's very loud. Is the only way

0:28:26.119 --> 0:28:28.120
<v Speaker 2>to kind of attack this situation, And.

0:28:28.119 --> 0:28:30.040
<v Speaker 1>I know that the big listeners out here now that

0:28:30.080 --> 0:28:31.560
<v Speaker 1>have gone through this, and I think we've touched it

0:28:31.600 --> 0:28:33.480
<v Speaker 1>in the discussion group in the past. But if you

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:36.159
<v Speaker 1>guys have ever actually written a letter and you have

0:28:36.240 --> 0:28:38.120
<v Speaker 1>made it funny, maybe you haven't made it funny. Maybe

0:28:38.160 --> 0:28:40.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a bit like straightforward and sharp. Let's talk about

0:28:41.000 --> 0:28:42.440
<v Speaker 1>it in the discussion group. So I want you guys

0:28:42.480 --> 0:28:44.200
<v Speaker 1>to just like start a little thread because I know

0:28:44.280 --> 0:28:46.240
<v Speaker 1>that some people have written in saying I've done this before,

0:28:46.280 --> 0:28:48.560
<v Speaker 1>Like I definitely wrote a letter, So put them in

0:28:48.560 --> 0:28:50.440
<v Speaker 1>the discussion group and hopefully we can go and check

0:28:50.520 --> 0:28:53.800
<v Speaker 1>other people's experiences. Wait, I have Matt here for one second.

0:28:53.800 --> 0:28:55.920
<v Speaker 1>He's just walked into the room. I've been handed Lola.

0:28:56.160 --> 0:28:58.320
<v Speaker 1>Matt's about to lead you to go to the gym. Matt,

0:28:58.400 --> 0:29:02.040
<v Speaker 1>if you had someone who is extremely loud at sex,

0:29:02.080 --> 0:29:03.720
<v Speaker 1>I know that you have once before You've told me,

0:29:04.440 --> 0:29:07.280
<v Speaker 1>what would you do? How would you mitigate the situation?

0:29:07.520 --> 0:29:09.520
<v Speaker 2>So basically, I mean, I'm not going to tell you

0:29:09.600 --> 0:29:12.480
<v Speaker 2>the full rundown on this, but basically, this girl has

0:29:12.480 --> 0:29:14.120
<v Speaker 2>a neighbor who has really loud sex.

0:29:14.120 --> 0:29:17.000
<v Speaker 1>But if you were the guy having sex with someone

0:29:17.120 --> 0:29:19.960
<v Speaker 1>and they were screaming, what would be your reaction to that.

0:29:20.520 --> 0:29:23.960
<v Speaker 3>I was once with a girl who was extremely noisy,

0:29:24.040 --> 0:29:25.840
<v Speaker 3>to the point where I thought she was taking the piss,

0:29:26.480 --> 0:29:29.959
<v Speaker 3>But I would have to say mid sex, I'd be like,

0:29:30.080 --> 0:29:33.760
<v Speaker 3>can you please just be quiet? I have roommates, please,

0:29:33.920 --> 0:29:38.120
<v Speaker 3>And she'd be like oh, and I'd be like please,

0:29:38.280 --> 0:29:40.800
<v Speaker 3>Like come on, what are you doing? I said, you

0:29:40.800 --> 0:29:43.000
<v Speaker 3>can't make that much noise. My neighbors are gonna hate me.

0:29:43.440 --> 0:29:45.440
<v Speaker 3>And she just wouldn't be quiet.

0:29:45.440 --> 0:29:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Do you think she's faking a map testament.

0:29:47.360 --> 0:29:49.720
<v Speaker 3>To myself as a lover. I mean, I'm painting a

0:29:49.760 --> 0:29:51.040
<v Speaker 3>pretty good picture here right now.

0:29:51.080 --> 0:29:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Mack, he's just compensating.

0:29:54.080 --> 0:29:56.320
<v Speaker 3>And she just couldn't help it. She just couldn't help herself, Like,

0:29:56.360 --> 0:29:58.920
<v Speaker 3>she just couldn't keep quiet. I would plead with her

0:29:58.960 --> 0:30:01.480
<v Speaker 3>because it was embarrassing for the next day with my roommates.

0:30:01.640 --> 0:30:03.080
<v Speaker 3>Do then come out to the living room and have

0:30:03.120 --> 0:30:05.560
<v Speaker 3>to face them and be like, Hey, I'm really sorry

0:30:05.600 --> 0:30:08.520
<v Speaker 3>about you know that screaming person. I promise they weren't

0:30:08.520 --> 0:30:09.320
<v Speaker 3>in pain last night.

0:30:09.880 --> 0:30:12.080
<v Speaker 1>That would make me uncomfortable in a situation. I haven't

0:30:12.080 --> 0:30:14.680
<v Speaker 1>really ever been in that situation. I mean talking about

0:30:14.920 --> 0:30:17.160
<v Speaker 1>sleeping with someone that's really loud. But I would find

0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:19.160
<v Speaker 1>it quite off putting if someone if I was sleeping

0:30:19.200 --> 0:30:21.040
<v Speaker 1>someone and that would like screaming, I'd be like, is

0:30:21.040 --> 0:30:21.840
<v Speaker 1>everything okay?

0:30:22.400 --> 0:30:23.880
<v Speaker 2>There are a lot of people out there who don't

0:30:23.880 --> 0:30:27.000
<v Speaker 2>realize they just don't even have any idea about their

0:30:27.040 --> 0:30:30.480
<v Speaker 2>own acoustics, and they don't know that they can hit

0:30:30.520 --> 0:30:32.640
<v Speaker 2>some pretty pretty exceptional high notes.

0:30:32.880 --> 0:30:35.360
<v Speaker 1>Well. I also think some people think that their partners.

0:30:35.680 --> 0:30:37.360
<v Speaker 1>I think they think it turns their partners on, like

0:30:37.360 --> 0:30:40.600
<v Speaker 1>they're encouraging their partner almost And some people it might like,

0:30:40.640 --> 0:30:43.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, like you're doing good, sweetie, Yeah, you're doing great,

0:30:43.360 --> 0:30:46.640
<v Speaker 1>CUTI or maybe it's an exaggeration of trying to encourage

0:30:46.680 --> 0:30:48.800
<v Speaker 1>them to do a certain move or certain position. So

0:30:48.840 --> 0:30:51.120
<v Speaker 1>maybe when someone gets into the position they're like, oh,

0:30:51.240 --> 0:30:53.080
<v Speaker 1>if I am really over the top right here, he'll

0:30:53.120 --> 0:30:55.080
<v Speaker 1>realize that I like this, and he'll continue to come

0:30:55.080 --> 0:30:57.240
<v Speaker 1>back to this position. There's there could be so many

0:30:57.320 --> 0:30:58.360
<v Speaker 1>underlying factors here.

0:30:58.440 --> 0:31:01.239
<v Speaker 2>I'm like having this conversation whilst on the ground in

0:31:01.240 --> 0:31:03.320
<v Speaker 2>front of me. Things are getting weird, all right.

0:31:03.320 --> 0:31:04.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, I think we're in a bit of a roll,

0:31:04.480 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 1>so we're gonna go a bit further today, and I'm

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:08.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna throw me in a fourth question. Are you all

0:31:08.360 --> 0:31:08.680
<v Speaker 1>right with that?

0:31:08.720 --> 0:31:08.960
<v Speaker 3>Laura?

0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:11.520
<v Speaker 1>A bit deeper, a bit darker, throw it, throw it

0:31:11.560 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 1>in the mire. It's actually I'm trying to actually wind

0:31:13.720 --> 0:31:15.239
<v Speaker 1>it down. It's not deeper or darker, but I think

0:31:15.280 --> 0:31:19.280
<v Speaker 1>it's a nicer way to finish. Help. But two months ago,

0:31:19.360 --> 0:31:22.120
<v Speaker 1>I met this guy. We got along so well, things

0:31:22.160 --> 0:31:26.240
<v Speaker 1>were going great until one day he literally vanished. I

0:31:26.440 --> 0:31:29.080
<v Speaker 1>just never heard from him again. It was the ultimate ghosting.

0:31:29.160 --> 0:31:32.760
<v Speaker 1>I was devastated and I was confused. However, he popped

0:31:32.800 --> 0:31:36.000
<v Speaker 1>up to me, apologizing recently for how he had treated me,

0:31:36.400 --> 0:31:38.920
<v Speaker 1>said that he feels really terrible. He wants to hang

0:31:38.960 --> 0:31:41.120
<v Speaker 1>out again, and he respects that there may never be

0:31:41.200 --> 0:31:44.520
<v Speaker 1>a chance for anything to happen again. What do I do?

0:31:44.520 --> 0:31:46.080
<v Speaker 1>Do I give him a second chance? Or is he

0:31:46.360 --> 0:31:49.520
<v Speaker 1>just back for sex? And should I leave that alone?

0:31:51.520 --> 0:31:53.920
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, a no, I'm a no, don't give that

0:31:53.960 --> 0:31:55.400
<v Speaker 2>another chance. Yeah, I probably would.

0:31:56.840 --> 0:32:00.320
<v Speaker 1>Fuck look, okay, I probably would too. I probably have.

0:32:01.000 --> 0:32:04.720
<v Speaker 1>But if somebody has treated you so disrespectfully, like if

0:32:04.720 --> 0:32:07.360
<v Speaker 1>it's someone who you were dating, who you actually really liked,

0:32:07.400 --> 0:32:10.120
<v Speaker 1>and then they just fucking ghosted, you. There is so

0:32:10.240 --> 0:32:13.600
<v Speaker 1>much disrespect in that. Why would you give him another chance?

0:32:13.840 --> 0:32:16.120
<v Speaker 1>Why would you open yourself back up to being hurt

0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:19.000
<v Speaker 1>by someone who has already shown you exactly who they are?

0:32:19.360 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 1>And I say, yes, I probably did in the past

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:25.080
<v Speaker 1>give that exact person another chance and it didn't work out.

0:32:25.120 --> 0:32:27.720
<v Speaker 1>I agree with what you're saying, like people do show

0:32:27.760 --> 0:32:29.920
<v Speaker 1>you who they are with their actions one hundred percent

0:32:30.240 --> 0:32:31.920
<v Speaker 1>and as long as they follow through with what they're doing.

0:32:32.040 --> 0:32:35.280
<v Speaker 1>He definitely made you feel really shitty. And that's important

0:32:35.360 --> 0:32:38.240
<v Speaker 1>to remember what I would do in this situation because

0:32:38.280 --> 0:32:41.080
<v Speaker 1>I am and this isn't for everyone, but for me.

0:32:41.280 --> 0:32:43.840
<v Speaker 1>I think people can make mistakes, and I'm a big

0:32:43.880 --> 0:32:47.280
<v Speaker 1>believer that people can change and giving people a second chance.

0:32:47.320 --> 0:32:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I really am. I'm just not I'm not a one

0:32:49.680 --> 0:32:52.080
<v Speaker 1>strike person because I've made mistakes in the past and

0:32:52.080 --> 0:32:54.440
<v Speaker 1>I've been very grateful that someone's given me a second chance.

0:32:54.480 --> 0:32:56.400
<v Speaker 1>I've said the wrong things, I've done the wrong things,

0:32:56.600 --> 0:32:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and I'm not a bad person and I know that,

0:32:58.480 --> 0:33:01.160
<v Speaker 1>so I like to try and give people the benefit

0:33:01.200 --> 0:33:03.360
<v Speaker 1>of the doubt. Sometimes that has bitten me in the ass,

0:33:03.400 --> 0:33:06.640
<v Speaker 1>really really badly. Sometimes it's worked out okay, what I

0:33:06.640 --> 0:33:10.280
<v Speaker 1>would do is ask why. Don't make it easy for him,

0:33:10.440 --> 0:33:13.040
<v Speaker 1>but maybe you can entertain the idea what happened? Why

0:33:13.080 --> 0:33:16.200
<v Speaker 1>did you you really hurt me? I was really fucking confused.

0:33:16.280 --> 0:33:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Why did you leave? Maybe he has a good answer,

0:33:19.040 --> 0:33:21.320
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he's like, I don't know. I got scared, I

0:33:21.360 --> 0:33:23.680
<v Speaker 1>panicked and I ran. You don't know what it's going

0:33:23.720 --> 0:33:26.320
<v Speaker 1>to be. Ask him firstly why he happened, and have

0:33:26.400 --> 0:33:30.040
<v Speaker 1>that chat and see if you a think there's anything

0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:32.120
<v Speaker 1>genuine there you think he's telling the truth, and b

0:33:32.480 --> 0:33:35.000
<v Speaker 1>ask why he's back, Say well, what do you want now?

0:33:35.080 --> 0:33:36.880
<v Speaker 1>You want to a random hookup? Do you just want sex?

0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:38.560
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to go on a date? Find out

0:33:38.600 --> 0:33:40.400
<v Speaker 1>what his intentions are and if they're in line with

0:33:40.440 --> 0:33:43.000
<v Speaker 1>what you want. If you are after casual sex and

0:33:43.040 --> 0:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>he's like, look, I just I loved spending time with

0:33:45.000 --> 0:33:46.680
<v Speaker 1>you and be king to just like hook up again,

0:33:46.960 --> 0:33:49.280
<v Speaker 1>go for it if that's what you want. If you

0:33:49.360 --> 0:33:51.920
<v Speaker 1>want a relationship and you want to actually date and

0:33:51.960 --> 0:33:54.080
<v Speaker 1>he's still saying I'm back, but I still want something casual,

0:33:54.240 --> 0:33:57.160
<v Speaker 1>don't even entertain it because it's never going to end well.

0:33:57.200 --> 0:33:59.760
<v Speaker 1>And you have to listen to what they're telling you,

0:33:59.800 --> 0:34:02.440
<v Speaker 1>like he's telling you what he wants, He's showing you

0:34:02.520 --> 0:34:05.440
<v Speaker 1>with his actions, so they that's my advice, and I

0:34:05.520 --> 0:34:07.000
<v Speaker 1>just think, like I'm going to too my own horn.

0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:11.200
<v Speaker 1>I just think that was really great mature advice. I'm like, no,

0:34:11.400 --> 0:34:14.440
<v Speaker 1>fuck em, I was like really vibing my advice there.

0:34:14.520 --> 0:34:16.400
<v Speaker 2>No, I agree, And I think the one part of

0:34:16.400 --> 0:34:19.120
<v Speaker 2>that which I think is the best and most stand

0:34:19.239 --> 0:34:23.680
<v Speaker 2>up very bad Brittany advice is if you want a relationship,

0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:25.879
<v Speaker 2>if you want a boyfriend, if you'll want something that's

0:34:25.920 --> 0:34:29.640
<v Speaker 2>committed and constant, and he isn't able to say that

0:34:29.640 --> 0:34:31.759
<v Speaker 2>that's what he wants off the back, before you guys

0:34:31.800 --> 0:34:34.040
<v Speaker 2>start having sex, before you start going out for dinners,

0:34:34.080 --> 0:34:36.200
<v Speaker 2>whatever it is. If he can't say that that's what

0:34:36.280 --> 0:34:39.600
<v Speaker 2>he's after, then don't entertain the idea because you're only

0:34:39.640 --> 0:34:41.640
<v Speaker 2>going to put yourself into a position where you're what

0:34:41.680 --> 0:34:44.719
<v Speaker 2>you want doesn't align. You're hoping that things will change again,

0:34:44.760 --> 0:34:47.360
<v Speaker 2>and you're just wasting time and energy on someone who's

0:34:47.400 --> 0:34:51.080
<v Speaker 2>already disappointed you so much. I guess my big thing

0:34:51.120 --> 0:34:55.120
<v Speaker 2>around ghosting is that it's so friggin' cowardly. It's such

0:34:55.160 --> 0:34:58.200
<v Speaker 2>a severe way of getting rid of someone and removing

0:34:58.239 --> 0:35:01.319
<v Speaker 2>someone from your life. It's such a cowardly way of being, like, Oh,

0:35:01.360 --> 0:35:03.160
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to have to deal with conflicts, so

0:35:03.200 --> 0:35:05.879
<v Speaker 2>I'm just going to disappear. And I think it says

0:35:05.920 --> 0:35:08.120
<v Speaker 2>a lot about a person. And I don't mean this

0:35:08.200 --> 0:35:10.880
<v Speaker 2>as in like there's a very there's different layers of ghosting.

0:35:11.760 --> 0:35:14.080
<v Speaker 2>If it's someone who you've literally been dating, who you've

0:35:14.080 --> 0:35:16.800
<v Speaker 2>started to form a connection with, You've gone on several dates,

0:35:16.800 --> 0:35:19.080
<v Speaker 2>you've talked about what you guys want, things are heading

0:35:19.120 --> 0:35:22.480
<v Speaker 2>in the right direction, and then they just totally go silent,

0:35:22.640 --> 0:35:26.399
<v Speaker 2>unfollow you on dating apps, unfollow you on Instagram.

0:35:26.120 --> 0:35:29.399
<v Speaker 1>Block you on Facebook. It just says so much about

0:35:29.440 --> 0:35:31.600
<v Speaker 1>that person. And I really think you have to make

0:35:31.960 --> 0:35:34.959
<v Speaker 1>very very strong considerations and you have to think about

0:35:35.000 --> 0:35:37.480
<v Speaker 1>it really hard before you open yourself up to that

0:35:37.600 --> 0:35:39.879
<v Speaker 1>level of drama and open yourself up to being hurt

0:35:39.920 --> 0:35:42.520
<v Speaker 1>again by the same person. And I just think a

0:35:42.560 --> 0:35:44.600
<v Speaker 1>lot of the time in these situations, you're not going

0:35:44.680 --> 0:35:47.080
<v Speaker 1>to get the truth. The truth probably is is that

0:35:47.120 --> 0:35:49.600
<v Speaker 1>there was somebody else he tried to see where that

0:35:49.640 --> 0:35:51.920
<v Speaker 1>went with that person, it didn't work out, and then

0:35:52.080 --> 0:35:53.680
<v Speaker 1>now he's got nothing else on the burn, and so

0:35:53.760 --> 0:35:55.600
<v Speaker 1>he's back to kind of give this one another go.

0:35:55.719 --> 0:35:57.960
<v Speaker 1>He was probably hatching his bets, and I think a

0:35:58.000 --> 0:36:01.000
<v Speaker 1>lot of times when people go that's reason, it's because

0:36:01.000 --> 0:36:02.840
<v Speaker 1>there's somebody else that they're putting their time and their

0:36:02.960 --> 0:36:06.680
<v Speaker 1>energy into. So just be really mindful and really wary

0:36:07.360 --> 0:36:10.560
<v Speaker 1>whether you think this person is worthwhile opening your life

0:36:10.600 --> 0:36:12.360
<v Speaker 1>up to the drama. Yeah, I think that's it. I

0:36:12.400 --> 0:36:14.799
<v Speaker 1>think we nailed it, lord As.

0:36:14.800 --> 0:36:17.680
<v Speaker 2>That is in from us. That is another ask, uncut,

0:36:17.800 --> 0:36:20.680
<v Speaker 2>done and dusted. Like I said, I'm so glad that

0:36:35.920 --> 0:36:40.480
