<v Speaker 2>Always was, always will be Aboriginal Land. This episode was

0:00:11.440 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 2>recorded on drug Wallamuta Land.

0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:25.640
<v Speaker 1>Hey guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life

0:00:25.680 --> 0:00:26.079
<v Speaker 1>on Cut.

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm Brittany and I'm Laura, and I am having a breakdown, just.

0:00:30.200 --> 0:00:33.440
<v Speaker 3>A small one. Okay, that's not a joke, she actually

0:00:33.479 --> 0:00:35.839
<v Speaker 3>just did. It's not I'm not joking. I just had

0:00:35.840 --> 0:00:42.400
<v Speaker 3>a big cry before. Everything's on fire the world, lover.

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:46.760
<v Speaker 2>I know we joke about how like chaotic things are.

0:00:47.120 --> 0:00:48.440
<v Speaker 3>You know, you would think that over the years we

0:00:48.479 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 3>would have gotten better.

0:00:49.760 --> 0:00:51.800
<v Speaker 2>Today we had to record this on Tuesday because I'm

0:00:51.800 --> 0:00:53.479
<v Speaker 2>heading to towns Will to see my dad as his

0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 2>seventieth birthday.

0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:55.480
<v Speaker 3>Happy birthday.

0:00:57.200 --> 0:00:59.280
<v Speaker 2>Who has never listened to an episode of this podcast,

0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:00.680
<v Speaker 2>never will entire life.

0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:01.400
<v Speaker 3>Thank god for that.

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 1>But that's because he lives on an island with no service,

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:06.520
<v Speaker 1>no Wi Fi, no home phone, no running water.

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:09.120
<v Speaker 3>My dad would.

0:01:08.840 --> 0:01:11.200
<v Speaker 2>Live in a an a tent if he could, Like

0:01:11.240 --> 0:01:13.280
<v Speaker 2>he'd live in one of those rucksack things.

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Do you know what my favorite thing about your dad

0:01:15.360 --> 0:01:17.760
<v Speaker 1>is like you've spoken about you dad a lot. He's

0:01:17.800 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 1>an amazing man. He spent many years serving Australia in

0:01:20.800 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 1>the Army. My favorite thing is his obsession with the Koalas.

0:01:25.080 --> 0:01:29.720
<v Speaker 1>So this my love Terry loves Koalas.

0:01:29.800 --> 0:01:32.559
<v Speaker 2>Terry for President might no not Terry for president. Terry

0:01:32.560 --> 0:01:35.039
<v Speaker 2>has PTSD from serving in the army. No Terry for

0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:39.120
<v Speaker 2>like Koala president. I mean, like the very short version

0:01:39.160 --> 0:01:42.240
<v Speaker 2>of my dad's story. Dad was a sniper in the

0:01:42.240 --> 0:01:44.160
<v Speaker 2>Australian Army, worked in secret services.

0:01:44.240 --> 0:01:47.400
<v Speaker 3>It is it's wild, it is actually wild. It's amazing.

0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:49.840
<v Speaker 3>And he then.

0:01:49.880 --> 0:01:52.520
<v Speaker 2>Really struggled with PTSD like a lot of people do

0:01:52.560 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 2>who are ex veterans. And then he decided he wanted

0:01:55.400 --> 0:01:58.680
<v Speaker 2>to be on his own and live on an island.

0:01:58.720 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 2>And he lives on Magnetic Island Townsville, where there's a

0:02:01.160 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 2>very small population of people and he doesn't have to

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:06.080
<v Speaker 2>talk to anyone and he just lives in a little

0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:08.160
<v Speaker 2>house with his dog. And we're gonna go and celebrate

0:02:08.200 --> 0:02:09.920
<v Speaker 2>his seventieth birthday. So this is going to be so

0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.280
<v Speaker 2>much social interaction for him. The whole family's going.

0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>You need to you miss the important part was like

0:02:14.480 --> 0:02:15.639
<v Speaker 1>his connection to the koalas.

0:02:15.720 --> 0:02:17.959
<v Speaker 2>Oh, and there's lots of koalas. That a clamitty of

0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.320
<v Speaker 2>free on Magnetic Island. It's the only chlamitty of free

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 2>population in Australia.

0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:23.720
<v Speaker 3>Did you know that?

0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, And your dad, Terry does a lot of charity

0:02:27.360 --> 0:02:30.519
<v Speaker 1>work and like raises money for koalas and it's really cool.

0:02:30.639 --> 0:02:32.680
<v Speaker 2>He's like king of Koala's over there. So the only

0:02:32.760 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 2>time I really hear from my dad, like with any

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:39.240
<v Speaker 2>sort of consistency, is when he's like, hey, Laura, there's

0:02:39.280 --> 0:02:41.040
<v Speaker 2>a fundraiser for the koalas.

0:02:42.240 --> 0:02:44.480
<v Speaker 3>Hey Laura, I took a photo of a koala in

0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:45.079
<v Speaker 3>my backyard.

0:02:45.120 --> 0:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>But we I'm about that because the koalas are endangered

0:02:48.639 --> 0:02:50.120
<v Speaker 1>and we are losing them a lot, and I think

0:02:50.120 --> 0:02:53.280
<v Speaker 1>it's really important that we do everything we can to

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:54.360
<v Speaker 1>keep them alive.

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.320
<v Speaker 2>If you've not been to Magnetic Island, shout out Magnetic Island.

0:02:57.680 --> 0:03:00.680
<v Speaker 2>It is a fucking beautiful play that is in a

0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 2>time warp. You get onto the island, you feel like

0:03:02.440 --> 0:03:05.640
<v Speaker 2>you're back in the seventies. There's tiny little minimogs. There's

0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 2>like you can walk down the street and there's a

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:09.200
<v Speaker 2>koala in the gum tree just on the side of

0:03:09.200 --> 0:03:11.800
<v Speaker 2>the road. It's it's a really incredible place.

0:03:11.840 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 3>So I have my new hobby. This is not sponsored

0:03:14.200 --> 0:03:15.040
<v Speaker 3>by Magnetic Island.

0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:19.040
<v Speaker 2>FYI and a committed and let me tell you this,

0:03:19.440 --> 0:03:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Terry Byrd doesn't want you on his island, but it's

0:03:21.680 --> 0:03:22.600
<v Speaker 2>a great place to go.

0:03:22.919 --> 0:03:25.919
<v Speaker 1>Okay. So my new hobby is that I look at

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.359
<v Speaker 1>the houses I'll probably never have all over Australia.

0:03:28.480 --> 0:03:30.959
<v Speaker 3>Sometimes the world sometimes fun, Bobby, I do the same.

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 3>I love it. Some of them I could have one day.

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.760
<v Speaker 1>And then there are the ones where I'm like, imagine

0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 1>having thirty million dollars to buy this beautiful house. Anyway,

0:03:38.640 --> 0:03:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I saw a property that I probably could afford on

0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:42.440
<v Speaker 1>Magnetic Island.

0:03:42.680 --> 0:03:45.000
<v Speaker 3>It was it was for sale, and the thought crossed

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:48.440
<v Speaker 3>my mind. I was like, do I want Terry Byrd

0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 3>as a neighbor.

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>I don't know.

0:03:50.360 --> 0:03:51.680
<v Speaker 3>He would definitely come over.

0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:53.440
<v Speaker 2>You'd find it in your backyard one day and he'd

0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:55.640
<v Speaker 2>just be digging up sweet potatoes, like, Terry, what are.

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:57.440
<v Speaker 3>You doing here? Terry, They're my sweet potato.

0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:00.680
<v Speaker 2>Go back on to you, like I'm trying to fix

0:04:00.720 --> 0:04:03.040
<v Speaker 2>the fans. Anyway, So that's what I'm doing. That's not

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:07.119
<v Speaker 2>why I'm having a breakdown. I'm having a breakdown because

0:04:07.160 --> 0:04:10.960
<v Speaker 2>we're recording this Tuesday morning. The live show tickets are

0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:13.160
<v Speaker 2>supposed to go on sale at one o'clock.

0:04:13.320 --> 0:04:15.080
<v Speaker 3>They're not. They're going on sale at four o'clock. But

0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:17.960
<v Speaker 3>that's because, like Taylor Swift, the zite crashed.

0:04:18.040 --> 0:04:20.800
<v Speaker 1>You guys jumped on. You were too many of you,

0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.679
<v Speaker 1>which we love, and the site crash.

0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:25.279
<v Speaker 3>I wish that was the truth.

0:04:25.480 --> 0:04:27.560
<v Speaker 2>The truth of the matter is is that the lack

0:04:27.600 --> 0:04:31.400
<v Speaker 2>of organization around the announcement of the live show meant

0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:34.080
<v Speaker 2>that we didn't have the website set up properly.

0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, look it's a sinking ship, but come to the

0:04:37.320 --> 0:04:40.160
<v Speaker 3>live show because it's gonna be way better than the website. Basically,

0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:41.280
<v Speaker 3>it wasn't that.

0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 1>It was disorganized, but it was that there were two

0:04:42.960 --> 0:04:46.599
<v Speaker 1>different parties doing it and everyone thought the other party

0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 1>was doing something and there was a little misshap But

0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:50.280
<v Speaker 1>it will be No one's going to miss out. I

0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:52.159
<v Speaker 1>mean people will miss out, but no, you're not going

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:53.680
<v Speaker 1>to miss out because of this. They're just going to

0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.560
<v Speaker 1>go live a little bit later. This is the thing,

0:04:55.640 --> 0:04:57.600
<v Speaker 1>right we talk about on every ask on cunt episode.

0:04:57.680 --> 0:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Communication is key, and this is what happens. Communication breaks down.

0:05:01.600 --> 0:05:04.320
<v Speaker 2>Laura cries breaks it down for twenty five minutes before

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.440
<v Speaker 2>the episode starts. But anyway, I want to show you

0:05:06.480 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 2>something live. You know I told you I fell downstairs.

0:05:09.760 --> 0:05:11.920
<v Speaker 3>Yes, you're gonna show me your ass, aren't you.

0:05:12.400 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 1>I am going to show you my balm? Can you

0:05:14.760 --> 0:05:17.320
<v Speaker 1>sign a waiver for me first? Can I sign a

<v Speaker 1>see my ass?

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 3>waited for four years. I've seen your supple nipples, I've

<v Speaker 1>Laura is wearing big, baggy black jeans like a It's

0:05:39.200 --> 0:05:40.520
<v Speaker 1>like a twelve year old skater boy.

0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:43.039
<v Speaker 2>You're wearing a g stream, which means you'll probably see

0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:43.600
<v Speaker 2>my buttholes.

0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:45.919

<v Speaker 1>quiet as right now quite.

0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:01.360
<v Speaker 3>Dry brushing is helping it at the moment.

0:06:01.160 --> 0:06:03.360
<v Speaker 1>Laura, quiet, I'm explaining to the people this is not

0:06:03.400 --> 0:06:05.440
<v Speaker 1>a visual medium, but keep it down, don't play pansa.

0:06:05.720 --> 0:06:08.919
<v Speaker 1>So basically, some black lacy underas under the crease is

0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:10.600
<v Speaker 1>a huge I don't know if you can even see that, Laura,

0:06:10.600 --> 0:06:14.080
<v Speaker 1>that's deep. There are two big bruises, big bruise up

0:06:14.120 --> 0:06:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the side. You really took a fall. Wow, And it's

0:06:18.600 --> 0:06:19.680

<v Speaker 3>Do you know?

0:06:20.440 --> 0:06:22.320

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:24.960
<v Speaker 2>hurt yourself and you don't get any level of sympathy.

0:06:25.440 --> 0:06:28.919
<v Speaker 2>I've been like hobbling around my house like Matt, my

0:06:29.040 --> 0:06:29.960

0:06:51.960 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh it's this is a wild intro, but it has

0:06:57.760 --> 0:06:58.920
<v Speaker 1>been a wild morning.

0:06:58.920 --> 0:06:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Do you know what I did?

0:06:59.800 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 2>This?

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:01.760
<v Speaker 3>This is how stupid I am. This morning.

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:06.640
<v Speaker 1>I was like thirty minutes late for our record, which didn't.

0:07:06.360 --> 0:07:10.640
<v Speaker 3>Help, or a situation which was fragile already. I left.

0:07:10.680 --> 0:07:12.760
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I had one job. I've been talking about

0:07:12.760 --> 0:07:15.720
<v Speaker 1>this fertility thing that I'm doing. It's only day two

0:07:16.520 --> 0:07:20.239
<v Speaker 1>and you have to do your injections at the same

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:23.720
<v Speaker 1>time every day, like without doubt. You have to do

0:07:23.760 --> 0:07:26.760
<v Speaker 1>it or it doesn't work properly. Now it's the morning,

0:07:27.040 --> 0:07:28.400
<v Speaker 1>so this is day two.

0:07:28.520 --> 0:07:29.520
<v Speaker 3>Only started yesterday.

0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:31.760
<v Speaker 1>I got up, didn't even think about it, truck and

0:07:31.800 --> 0:07:33.320
<v Speaker 1>drove to work and I was on my way here

0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, oh my god, I didn't take

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:35.800
<v Speaker 1>my medication.

0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 3>I didn't do the injection. So I had to turn around,

0:07:38.320 --> 0:07:38.840
<v Speaker 3>drive back.

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:41.440
<v Speaker 1>This is peak hour traffic now in Sydney, drive back,

0:07:41.600 --> 0:07:43.640
<v Speaker 1>do the injection, get back on the road and come

0:07:43.680 --> 0:07:44.080
<v Speaker 1>to work.

0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.320
<v Speaker 3>But like one.

0:07:46.160 --> 0:07:50.280
<v Speaker 2>Job, and considering that you've been talking about it so much, right,

0:07:50.440 --> 0:07:53.800
<v Speaker 2>it's like, yeah, I mean you had one thing to remember,

0:07:54.000 --> 0:07:55.320
<v Speaker 2>You've had multiple things to remember.

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:56.400
<v Speaker 3>There's a lot going on today.

0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to make an excuse for why I did

0:07:58.760 --> 0:07:59.600
<v Speaker 1>what I did this morning.

0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:01.760
<v Speaker 2>I also think we just need to be more like

0:08:01.960 --> 0:08:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Terry Byrne and just live on an island and talk

0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:07.200
<v Speaker 2>about Koala's do you your life would be more.

0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:09.240
<v Speaker 3>Simple and happier. That's why I looked at a house there.

0:08:09.760 --> 0:08:12.480
<v Speaker 1>No one can contact me, no, but the reason was

0:08:12.520 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 1>and now Ben just think some irresponsible for our future

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:16.680
<v Speaker 1>child now because we're in the car on the way

0:08:16.680 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 1>and he's like, how is your injection this morning? And

0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:21.560
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh about that, It will be good

0:08:21.600 --> 0:08:22.040
<v Speaker 1>in a minute.

0:08:22.080 --> 0:08:25.360

<v Speaker 3>Last week, I.

0:10:10.800 --> 0:10:13.800
<v Speaker 2>Was talking about how when I was young, that song

0:10:13.920 --> 0:10:14.920
<v Speaker 2>I was insanity.

0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:16.520
<v Speaker 3>I was wearing the headphones.

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:19.800
<v Speaker 2>I was singing out loud to the song I have

0:10:19.960 --> 0:10:23.840
<v Speaker 2>my first real six string, played it honest. Whatever the

0:10:23.840 --> 0:10:26.880
<v Speaker 2>words are, I don't know them all clearly, because the

0:10:26.960 --> 0:10:29.120
<v Speaker 2>point of the story was I wasn't singing I had

0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:31.880
<v Speaker 2>my first real six string. I was singing I had

0:10:31.920 --> 0:10:34.000
<v Speaker 2>my first real sex dream.

0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Hugely embarrassing.

0:10:36.000 --> 0:10:38.960
<v Speaker 2>Turns out that all of you have had songs that

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:43.320
<v Speaker 2>you misheard the lyrics too, and embarrassingly sung the wrong lyrics. Also,

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:45.920
<v Speaker 2>we just fill in the blanks, right, Yeah, the Mum

0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.559
<v Speaker 2>and mea song I sing wrong every time we were

0:10:48.600 --> 0:10:53.160
<v Speaker 2>broken hearted. Ooh, since the day we parted, and it's

0:10:53.200 --> 0:10:55.360
<v Speaker 2>like it's blue and he always corrects me, but I

0:10:55.400 --> 0:10:56.079
<v Speaker 2>sing the same thing.

0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 3>Ooh since the day we parted. Oh, I sing that too,

0:11:00.240 --> 0:11:04.200
<v Speaker 3>it's blues since the day. Okay, everyone's blowing their minds

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.160
<v Speaker 3>and oh my god, I didn't know that either. They go, well,

0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:07.599
<v Speaker 3>you know what, Fuck you, Matt, because it makes me

0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:09.760
<v Speaker 3>feel so dark. Fuck you, mat, Fuck you Matt.

0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:14.080
<v Speaker 2>You guys wrote in with all of the misheard lyrics,

0:11:14.160 --> 0:11:16.640
<v Speaker 2>the things that you have been singing incorrectly over the years,

0:11:16.760 --> 0:11:20.280
<v Speaker 2>and they are so fucking funny that we wanted to

0:11:20.280 --> 0:11:22.400
<v Speaker 2>share them with you. Before we get into answering your question,

0:11:23.080 --> 0:11:24.000

<v Speaker 2>a kid's song, that's what that is.

0:14:25.280 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 3>What did a lullabye?

0:14:26.320 --> 0:14:26.800
<v Speaker 1>Tar? Kids?

0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:29.400
<v Speaker 3>Who's the fucking the knife? Who the fucking the knife?

0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:39.240
<v Speaker 3>I am dead? I remove umbillicles? Do I'm a mid wife?

0:14:40.960 --> 0:14:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh my gosh, okay, this is another national anthem or

0:14:44.720 --> 0:14:48.200
<v Speaker 1>Australians all and oh stroogs.

0:14:48.240 --> 0:14:51.120
<v Speaker 3>We don't even have ostriches in Australia. This person thought

0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:53.240
<v Speaker 3>we did. I think they mistook them for e news.

0:14:53.520 --> 0:14:55.240
<v Speaker 2>I think this song, I mean, this is one that's

0:14:55.240 --> 0:14:57.800
<v Speaker 2>like very famous at the moment Lewis Capaldi song.

0:14:57.840 --> 0:15:02.480
<v Speaker 3>But instead I only wish you you were dead? Is

0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:06.080
<v Speaker 3>it what I wish? I wish you the best? Instead

0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:08.400
<v Speaker 3>I only wish you were dead. Oh guys, okay, I've

0:15:08.440 --> 0:15:11.000
<v Speaker 3>got one more. I don't remember how this goes, like,

0:15:11.040 --> 0:15:12.880
<v Speaker 3>shake it like a polaroid picture. How does that go?

0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:13.400
<v Speaker 1>G it?

0:15:13.720 --> 0:15:16.280
<v Speaker 3>Shake it like a polaroid pitch? Shake it?

0:15:16.360 --> 0:15:20.119
<v Speaker 2>Well, this is shake it like a Puerto Rican pizza.

0:15:22.160 --> 0:15:26.240
<v Speaker 3>People can't really think. Okay, Hilary Duff, you know all

0:15:26.240 --> 0:15:30.680
<v Speaker 3>lips are sealed. It goes all lips are sealed. I

0:15:30.680 --> 0:15:31.960
<v Speaker 3>don't know that as the.

0:15:32.040 --> 0:15:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Seal untone deaf, but you will know it if we

0:15:34.520 --> 0:15:38.000
<v Speaker 1>sing it. Anyway, everybody thought it was Alex the Seal.

0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:43.000
<v Speaker 2>I have one more and it's Rihanna's umbrella. And this

0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:46.160
<v Speaker 2>person thought it was under my arm forever ever.

0:15:46.480 --> 0:15:48.480
<v Speaker 3>Ever. That's pretty cute, though, is it?

0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:48.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

0:15:48.840 --> 0:15:51.000
<v Speaker 3>Because I'll walk with you under my arm forever. It's

0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:51.800
<v Speaker 3>better than umbrella.

0:15:51.840 --> 0:15:54.000
<v Speaker 1>Actually that should have been the lyrics, because I remember

0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:54.880
<v Speaker 1>when Umbrella came out.

0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.640
<v Speaker 3>I was like, this is my stupid lyric I've ever heard.

0:15:57.680 --> 0:15:59.880
<v Speaker 3>It doesn't rain all the time. You don't always think

0:15:59.880 --> 0:16:01.320
<v Speaker 3>I'm mbrella, but you always need to be on the

0:16:01.800 --> 0:16:02.280
<v Speaker 3>rain and.

0:16:02.320 --> 0:16:06.720
<v Speaker 2>More than ever, because we're in the middle of La Nina, you.

0:16:06.680 --> 0:16:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Can be under my arm forever in case I lose

0:16:09.920 --> 0:16:11.200
<v Speaker 1>my umbrella.

0:16:11.280 --> 0:16:13.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, how do we not get a job

0:16:13.840 --> 0:16:14.360
<v Speaker 3>as a singer?

0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:16.400
<v Speaker 1>How are we on radio? And we don't know the

0:16:16.440 --> 0:16:18.440
<v Speaker 1>lyrics to any of the songs? Anytime you guys want

0:16:18.480 --> 0:16:20.320
<v Speaker 1>us on the mask singer, We're ready. I will dress

0:16:20.360 --> 0:16:22.320
<v Speaker 1>up as a giant song and I will sing my

0:16:22.400 --> 0:16:27.240
<v Speaker 1>heart out. It is time for our vibe and unsubscribe.

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:32.560
<v Speaker 2>Keisha little Pitit, Keisha petit, What is your vibe today?

0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:33.640
<v Speaker 3>My vibe for the week?

0:16:35.520 --> 0:16:39.400
<v Speaker 4>Hard to summarize is like one particular thing because lately

0:16:39.560 --> 0:16:43.680
<v Speaker 4>I have really been vibing sleep elements to this that like,

0:16:43.760 --> 0:16:46.720
<v Speaker 4>I've just started to get absolutely obsessed with sleep, and

0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:48.200
<v Speaker 4>I know that a lot of people are going to

0:16:48.240 --> 0:16:50.480
<v Speaker 4>be listening to this, being like, oh must be nice.

0:16:50.800 --> 0:16:53.120
<v Speaker 3>You don't have kids and you work from home some.

0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Days, Like we more just lost listeners because you just

0:16:55.600 --> 0:16:57.200
<v Speaker 1>vibe sleep like everyone does every night.

0:16:57.280 --> 0:16:59.680
<v Speaker 3>Wait, are you vibing tracking your sleep?

0:17:00.000 --> 0:17:02.840
<v Speaker 4>A couple of different aspects of the sleep. So sleep

0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:04.879
<v Speaker 4>tracking is definitely a part of it. I had this

0:17:05.040 --> 0:17:07.679
<v Speaker 4>really old fit bit and I'd forgotten about it, but

0:17:07.720 --> 0:17:09.640
<v Speaker 4>I was like, I used to use that to track

0:17:09.680 --> 0:17:11.800
<v Speaker 4>my sleep, So I redownloaded the app.

0:17:11.840 --> 0:17:13.000
<v Speaker 3>I've like charged it up.

0:17:13.040 --> 0:17:15.160
<v Speaker 4>I've been sleeping with it for the past couple of weeks,

0:17:15.280 --> 0:17:17.160
<v Speaker 4>and I have a goal, and it's to get eight

0:17:17.240 --> 0:17:21.760
<v Speaker 4>hours of sleep a night. Because yeah, I knew it

0:17:21.800 --> 0:17:22.560
<v Speaker 4>was gonna come.

0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:24.879
<v Speaker 3>Anyone that has a child is going to be like,

0:17:25.160 --> 0:17:28.440
<v Speaker 3>fuck off you are. You're opening yourself up here.

0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:30.879
<v Speaker 2>I used to have one of them, and I felt

0:17:30.920 --> 0:17:32.080
<v Speaker 2>personally victimized.

0:17:32.160 --> 0:17:33.399
<v Speaker 3>So that's why I stopped using it.

0:17:33.440 --> 0:17:37.520
<v Speaker 2>But Matt obsessed with tracking his sleep, obsessed with hitting

0:17:37.560 --> 0:17:39.920
<v Speaker 2>like sleep goals like deep rem and whatever he talks

0:17:39.920 --> 0:17:40.600
<v Speaker 2>about all the time.

0:17:40.960 --> 0:17:42.800
<v Speaker 3>But he also tracks his heart rate.

0:17:43.080 --> 0:17:46.639
<v Speaker 2>And we've had sex before and he stopped and he

0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:48.080
<v Speaker 2>looked at his watch.

0:17:48.600 --> 0:17:52.080
<v Speaker 3>And I realized he was checking his heart rate during sex.

0:17:52.160 --> 0:17:53.359
<v Speaker 3>You needn't know the worst part.

0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:55.680
<v Speaker 4>I already know this because Matt and I've spoken about

0:17:55.680 --> 0:17:57.840
<v Speaker 4>it because we bond over how we both track.

0:17:57.720 --> 0:17:59.359
<v Speaker 3>Our sleep yours.

0:17:59.440 --> 0:17:59.640
<v Speaker 1>Well.

0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:02.000
<v Speaker 3>Look, sleep is the elixir to life, Okay.

0:18:02.040 --> 0:18:03.879
<v Speaker 4>And I say this as someone who used to have

0:18:04.000 --> 0:18:06.359
<v Speaker 4>very troubled sleep, and I had a bit of a

0:18:06.400 --> 0:18:09.000
<v Speaker 4>period of my life where like it was really a

0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:11.119
<v Speaker 4>problem that impacted me in a really bad way.

0:18:11.359 --> 0:18:12.879
<v Speaker 3>But there is also an episode.

0:18:12.920 --> 0:18:15.080
<v Speaker 4>So the number one sleep expert in the world, his

0:18:15.160 --> 0:18:17.639
<v Speaker 4>name is Matthew Walker, and of course he was on

0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:20.440
<v Speaker 4>Diary of the CEO, because you know, I love Stephen Barlets.

0:18:20.640 --> 0:18:22.800
<v Speaker 4>This is my second week in a row recommending that

0:18:24.119 --> 0:18:25.359
<v Speaker 4>he just like, stop listening.

0:18:25.080 --> 0:18:27.400
<v Speaker 3>To La fun Cuck, go listen to Diary of CEO. Well,

0:18:27.400 --> 0:18:28.080
<v Speaker 3>this is all.

0:18:27.960 --> 0:18:30.800
<v Speaker 4>About sleep and like how it's so important and how

0:18:30.840 --> 0:18:32.160
<v Speaker 4>you can try and improve it.

0:18:32.440 --> 0:18:35.880
<v Speaker 2>Imagine being an expert on sleep, like the one thing

0:18:35.920 --> 0:18:37.760
<v Speaker 2>that you decided to dedicate your life too.

0:18:38.040 --> 0:18:38.520
<v Speaker 3>I'd love it.

0:18:38.600 --> 0:18:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I think this is hard because half the population doesn't

0:18:41.560 --> 0:18:42.280
<v Speaker 1>have the luxury.

0:18:42.359 --> 0:18:44.320
<v Speaker 3>Even if they want to sleep, they don't get to know.

0:18:44.680 --> 0:18:45.359
<v Speaker 3>I disagree.

0:18:45.400 --> 0:18:47.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean with the kid, sorry, I mean with kids.

0:18:47.720 --> 0:18:49.560
<v Speaker 1>Even so, I think, like when you have very very

0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:52.240
<v Speaker 1>young kids, it's obviously an exception to the rule. But

0:18:52.280 --> 0:18:55.040
<v Speaker 1>I think so many of us prioritize like death scrolling

0:18:55.040 --> 0:18:57.560
<v Speaker 1>at nighttime, or we procrastinate.

0:18:57.680 --> 0:18:59.679
<v Speaker 2>For me, for example, I stick up really late. Sometimes

0:18:59.720 --> 0:19:02.199
<v Speaker 2>in some times I'm not being productive. But it is

0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:05.000
<v Speaker 2>the couple of hours where I feel like I have

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:07.840
<v Speaker 2>time to myself, even though I could use those hours

0:19:07.880 --> 0:19:10.080
<v Speaker 2>more productively by sleeping a death scroll.

0:19:10.320 --> 0:19:12.240
<v Speaker 4>I also think that there's a bit of a hangover

0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:14.640
<v Speaker 4>from the whole like hustle culture sleep when you're dead

0:19:14.720 --> 0:19:17.200
<v Speaker 4>kind of vibe. The lack of sleep that people can

0:19:17.240 --> 0:19:19.960
<v Speaker 4>function on has almost been worn as a badge of

0:19:19.960 --> 0:19:22.960
<v Speaker 4>honor of like, well, I only need four hours and

0:19:23.000 --> 0:19:25.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, we heard about all these billionaires that only

0:19:25.040 --> 0:19:25.560
<v Speaker 4>need four.

0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:28.400
<v Speaker 3>Hours of sleep. It's actually not true, and women need

0:19:28.440 --> 0:19:31.240
<v Speaker 3>more sleep than men. They've proven that it's a hormone thing.

0:19:31.680 --> 0:19:34.480
<v Speaker 4>So I am feeling really good something that I'm really

0:19:34.520 --> 0:19:37.040
<v Speaker 4>putting a lot of my energy into. I'm doing all

0:19:37.119 --> 0:19:39.640
<v Speaker 4>of the things I'm putting my energy into. Yo, you've

0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:42.480
<v Speaker 4>got the rain sounds, I've got the sleep tracking. I've

0:19:42.520 --> 0:19:44.600
<v Speaker 4>tried to do the right things before I go to bed.

0:19:44.760 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to tell you something that's going to make

0:19:46.000 --> 0:19:46.840
<v Speaker 3>your vomit in your mouth.

0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:49.920
<v Speaker 1>So Ben and I, because we're on opposite sides of

0:19:49.960 --> 0:19:52.320
<v Speaker 1>the world and the time is so different that when

0:19:52.320 --> 0:19:54.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to bed, I only get a window of

0:19:54.359 --> 0:19:55.680
<v Speaker 1>like half an hour to talk to him at night,

0:19:55.760 --> 0:19:57.720
<v Speaker 1>and I have to say I'm late to have that window.

0:19:58.359 --> 0:20:00.760
<v Speaker 1>So we chat for like fifteen twenty minutes and then

0:20:00.960 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 1>I go to sleep. But what we do is I

0:20:04.320 --> 0:20:07.960
<v Speaker 1>put the iPad down and he through his He stays

0:20:08.040 --> 0:20:12.200
<v Speaker 1>on the iPad and he plays meditation music or rain music,

0:20:12.280 --> 0:20:14.520
<v Speaker 1>or he'll go and find a sleep soundtrack and he'll

0:20:14.560 --> 0:20:18.000
<v Speaker 1>just play it through his iPad until I fall asleep,

0:20:18.040 --> 0:20:20.440
<v Speaker 1>and then he hangs up the iPad. I think it's

0:20:20.480 --> 0:20:21.000
<v Speaker 1>really cute.

0:20:21.119 --> 0:20:23.520
<v Speaker 3>I no, that's nice because they're a long distance. That's cute.

0:20:23.760 --> 0:20:25.760
<v Speaker 3>But he puts me to sleep with his music.

0:20:25.760 --> 0:20:27.000
<v Speaker 1>He's like night babe, and then he puts it and

0:20:27.040 --> 0:20:29.680
<v Speaker 1>then he'll hang up once he knows that I've drifted off.

0:20:29.760 --> 0:20:31.880
<v Speaker 3>I think it's really cute. I think that's cute.

0:20:31.880 --> 0:20:33.639
<v Speaker 2>But that's also like a testament to the fact that

0:20:33.840 --> 0:20:36.120
<v Speaker 2>you seek out ways to have connection when you're doing

0:20:37.160 --> 0:20:39.360
<v Speaker 2>I actually I read this article quite a while ago.

0:20:39.440 --> 0:20:41.960
<v Speaker 2>Business Insider did an article and when you talk about

0:20:42.000 --> 0:20:44.400
<v Speaker 2>this idea of hustle culture and how we glorify people

0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:46.520
<v Speaker 2>who don't sleep. I just looked it up because I

0:20:46.520 --> 0:20:49.480
<v Speaker 2>remember reading it and it was about all these successful

0:20:49.880 --> 0:20:53.159
<v Speaker 2>CEOs and billionaires who basically get very minimal sleep and

0:20:53.200 --> 0:20:56.240
<v Speaker 2>are hugely successful. People like Martha Stewart who talks about

0:20:56.240 --> 0:20:58.399
<v Speaker 2>hash she only gets four hours sleep a night, People

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.040
<v Speaker 2>like Tom Ford, who only gets three hours sleep a night.

0:21:01.320 --> 0:21:03.639
<v Speaker 2>And I do definitely think that there's been this shift

0:21:03.720 --> 0:21:08.040
<v Speaker 2>from sacrificing so much about your personal self in order

0:21:08.119 --> 0:21:10.600
<v Speaker 2>to get ahead in life verse. I think that this

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:12.880
<v Speaker 2>kind of the pendulum swinging the other way where people

0:21:12.960 --> 0:21:15.399
<v Speaker 2>are tracking their sleep again, they're tracking their wellness and

0:21:15.440 --> 0:21:17.760
<v Speaker 2>they're kind of prioritizing their self, which is also nice

0:21:17.760 --> 0:21:18.119
<v Speaker 2>to see.

0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:20.760
<v Speaker 4>Interestingly, something I learned from all of the podcasts that

0:21:20.800 --> 0:21:24.400
<v Speaker 4>I've been listening to about sleep is that consistent, really

0:21:24.400 --> 0:21:27.520
<v Speaker 4>good sleep is the number one preventative thing for things

0:21:27.560 --> 0:21:30.919
<v Speaker 4>like dementia and Alzheimer's. So there are chemical processes that

0:21:31.000 --> 0:21:33.199
<v Speaker 4>happen in your sleep that can't be mimixed through like

0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:36.360
<v Speaker 4>you can't get that through having coffee during the day.

0:21:36.359 --> 0:21:38.280
<v Speaker 4>You know, there are things that happen in sleep that

0:21:38.359 --> 0:21:40.800
<v Speaker 4>we have in our society I think tried to kind

0:21:40.800 --> 0:21:42.760
<v Speaker 4>of make up for, you know, like, oh, if I've

0:21:42.760 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 4>had a really bad sleep, I'll just have an extra

0:21:44.200 --> 0:21:44.840
<v Speaker 4>coffee today.

0:21:45.080 --> 0:21:47.000
<v Speaker 3>Well, it doesn't really work like that. This is a

0:21:47.040 --> 0:21:51.040
<v Speaker 3>sleep podcast. Good night everybody, This is a wellness health

0:21:51.280 --> 0:21:52.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm sorry if we just.

0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:54.040
<v Speaker 1>Lost you when you had a nap as well, we'll

0:21:54.080 --> 0:21:57.520
<v Speaker 1>bring it back. My vibe of the week is chrome nails.

0:21:57.640 --> 0:21:58.439
<v Speaker 3>Now bear with me.

0:21:58.720 --> 0:22:02.000
<v Speaker 1>I've never had chrome nails BEFO, but Kylie Jenner is

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:05.399
<v Speaker 1>big on chrome nails and I got suggested them by

0:22:05.520 --> 0:22:09.120
<v Speaker 1>this sounds like Wenkriash. But when my stylist was dressing

0:22:09.200 --> 0:22:12.119
<v Speaker 1>me for the logies, she was like, what nails are

0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:13.399
<v Speaker 1>you doing? I was like, oh my god, as if

0:22:13.440 --> 0:22:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I didn't even think about it. She's like, I think

0:22:15.240 --> 0:22:17.879
<v Speaker 1>you try chrome. So it's just the type and the

0:22:17.920 --> 0:22:19.280
<v Speaker 1>look of the nails.

0:22:19.359 --> 0:22:22.240
<v Speaker 3>It like SNS acrylic or yeah, it's like an S

0:22:22.359 --> 0:22:24.159
<v Speaker 3>and S. But it's the chrome.

0:22:24.240 --> 0:22:25.960
<v Speaker 1>Is the type of the color where it's almost like

0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:31.439
<v Speaker 1>a metally opal reflective kind of nail. And that's my

0:22:31.520 --> 0:22:33.760
<v Speaker 1>vibe of the week. I've been really really loving them,

0:22:33.800 --> 0:22:34.760
<v Speaker 1>so that's it.

0:22:34.400 --> 0:22:35.679
<v Speaker 3>It's a beauty vibe.

0:22:35.800 --> 0:22:38.879
<v Speaker 2>I have not had my nails done in about two years.

0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:41.639
<v Speaker 2>You didn't even do I look like my nails have

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:43.960
<v Speaker 2>been shoved into like a food processor.

0:22:44.080 --> 0:22:45.640
<v Speaker 3>And I didn't even do them for the logies. They're

0:22:45.760 --> 0:22:47.800
<v Speaker 3>so bad. My vibe for the.

0:22:47.800 --> 0:22:51.400
<v Speaker 2>Week is self indulgent one. But I'm gonna remind you anyway,

0:22:51.600 --> 0:22:53.480
<v Speaker 2>go and buy tickets to the live show. Now let's

0:22:53.480 --> 0:22:58.200
<v Speaker 2>get into your questions. Question number one. Now, this got

0:22:58.280 --> 0:23:01.720
<v Speaker 2>sent around in our group chat as possibly the weirdest

0:23:01.800 --> 0:23:05.119
<v Speaker 2>question that we have ever received. Keisha's response to this

0:23:05.320 --> 0:23:08.040
<v Speaker 2>was is this the worst question we've ever received? And

0:23:08.080 --> 0:23:12.040
<v Speaker 2>then it sparked an interesting conversation, so he thought we'll

0:23:12.080 --> 0:23:13.000
<v Speaker 2>bring it here to you.

0:23:14.000 --> 0:23:16.359
<v Speaker 3>Potentially the worst question. But look, we don't say that

0:23:16.400 --> 0:23:17.000
<v Speaker 3>with prejudice.

0:23:17.040 --> 0:23:19.120
<v Speaker 2>We say it because I mean you will understand why

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:23.600
<v Speaker 2>my partner doesn't yawn at the same time as me.

0:23:23.960 --> 0:23:29.080
<v Speaker 2>He doesn't quote unquote catch my yawns. Does this mean

0:23:29.240 --> 0:23:33.560
<v Speaker 2>that he isn't emotionally connected to me. I'm going to

0:23:33.640 --> 0:23:37.480
<v Speaker 2>jump in first and just say I think that the

0:23:37.600 --> 0:23:40.280
<v Speaker 2>litmus for having a good connection with your partner has

0:23:40.280 --> 0:23:40.960
<v Speaker 2>gone too far.

0:23:41.359 --> 0:23:42.720
<v Speaker 3>We expect too much.

0:23:43.080 --> 0:23:45.399
<v Speaker 2>It is okay if your partner doesn't yawn at the

0:23:45.400 --> 0:23:48.160
<v Speaker 2>same time, you could still be in a great relationship.

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:50.719
<v Speaker 3>But Britt had a different take on this.

0:23:50.920 --> 0:23:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, don't go breaking up with him because he's not yawning,

0:23:53.280 --> 0:23:55.680
<v Speaker 1>but be aware he could be a psychopath, it could

0:23:55.720 --> 0:23:56.520
<v Speaker 1>be a serial killer.

0:23:56.720 --> 0:23:59.440
<v Speaker 3>So this is funny, right the group chat, we're all laughing.

0:23:59.480 --> 0:24:01.359
<v Speaker 2>They were like, I just want to say I want

0:24:01.400 --> 0:24:03.000
<v Speaker 2>to reiterate this is not a made up question.

0:24:03.040 --> 0:24:06.000
<v Speaker 1>This was sent into us as an ask guncut question. Yeah,

0:24:06.040 --> 0:24:07.960
<v Speaker 1>do I not have a connection because my partner doesn't

0:24:08.000 --> 0:24:08.600
<v Speaker 1>catch my yawn?

0:24:09.000 --> 0:24:09.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:24:09.440 --> 0:24:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Everyone was laughing at this question because they were like,

0:24:11.680 --> 0:24:14.159
<v Speaker 1>this is so funny because this doesn't mean anything.

0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:16.200
<v Speaker 3>They didn't catch a yawn, So what kind of a thing.

0:24:16.440 --> 0:24:19.920
<v Speaker 1>And then I because I'm obsessed with crime and serial

0:24:20.000 --> 0:24:23.400
<v Speaker 1>killers and psychopaths and narcissists. It's like my other hobby.

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:25.040
<v Speaker 1>One of my hobbies is looking at homes and the

0:24:25.080 --> 0:24:28.960
<v Speaker 1>other hobby is looking at criminals. It's actually a part

0:24:29.280 --> 0:24:33.840
<v Speaker 1>of a psychopath test. So when they test, now bear

0:24:33.880 --> 0:24:37.160
<v Speaker 1>with me, when they test psychopaths, there is a hair

0:24:37.600 --> 0:24:40.560
<v Speaker 1>psychopath checklist that they go through, like there's lots of

0:24:40.600 --> 0:24:41.720
<v Speaker 1>things that they have to tick.

0:24:41.840 --> 0:24:43.600
<v Speaker 3>Well, what's the telltale signs of a serial killer?

0:24:43.680 --> 0:24:48.720
<v Speaker 1>Well, they do questions about superficial charm, impulsive behavior, pathological lies,

0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:52.040
<v Speaker 1>like there's a whole checklist. But this is from insider

0:24:52.040 --> 0:24:55.400
<v Speaker 1>dot com, but there's a lot of actual research done

0:24:55.440 --> 0:24:58.400
<v Speaker 1>on this. They like it could be a simple way

0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:00.600
<v Speaker 1>to see if someone is a psychopath and that yawning.

0:25:00.880 --> 0:25:04.119
<v Speaker 1>So yawning is an empathetic response. And I don't know

0:25:04.119 --> 0:25:05.600
<v Speaker 1>if a lot of people know that, but a yawn

0:25:05.680 --> 0:25:08.000
<v Speaker 1>is something The reason we say do you catch a yawn?

0:25:08.119 --> 0:25:11.080
<v Speaker 1>People do catch them because we look at someone yawning

0:25:11.320 --> 0:25:14.280
<v Speaker 1>and inside we're empathetic to them that they're tired, and

0:25:14.680 --> 0:25:18.399
<v Speaker 1>as a result, we reflect that mirror we yawn. Yeah,

0:25:18.440 --> 0:25:21.240
<v Speaker 1>so yawning they usually are something that you can quote

0:25:21.280 --> 0:25:24.720
<v Speaker 1>unquote catch but because one of the characteristics of a

0:25:24.720 --> 0:25:28.199
<v Speaker 1>psychopath is that they don't have empathy and their connection

0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:31.160
<v Speaker 1>to reality, so one of the things is they they

0:25:31.200 --> 0:25:35.359
<v Speaker 1>don't yawn back. So it's actually a checklist, is do

0:25:35.440 --> 0:25:37.600
<v Speaker 1>you catch a yawn because you could be a psychopath. Now,

0:25:37.640 --> 0:25:40.280
<v Speaker 1>just because someone doesn't yawn back doesn't mean they're the

0:25:40.320 --> 0:25:42.880
<v Speaker 1>next Jeffrey Darmer, Like, let's be clear, but.

0:25:42.880 --> 0:25:46.639
<v Speaker 3>It could, but it could. You need to do the

0:25:46.640 --> 0:25:47.720
<v Speaker 3>rest of the checklist.

0:25:47.880 --> 0:25:51.440
<v Speaker 2>I reckon if this is the only reason why you're

0:25:51.440 --> 0:25:54.600
<v Speaker 2>thinking you don't have an emotional connection. You're probably okay

0:25:54.840 --> 0:25:56.960
<v Speaker 2>if everything else is good and it's just the lack

0:25:56.960 --> 0:26:00.359
<v Speaker 2>of yawning, and then I reckon stay in the relationship instead,

0:26:00.600 --> 0:26:04.600
<v Speaker 2>keep going if there are other things, like he's unreliable,

0:26:04.720 --> 0:26:06.919
<v Speaker 2>he lies to you, he murdered your cat, any of

0:26:06.920 --> 0:26:09.880
<v Speaker 2>those sorts of you know, telltale science that maybe redbag

0:26:10.119 --> 0:26:12.800
<v Speaker 2>is a serial killer. Well, honestly, I mean that went really,

0:26:13.119 --> 0:26:16.080
<v Speaker 2>that got dark real quick. He lies to you, he's inconsistent.

0:26:16.280 --> 0:26:18.679
<v Speaker 1>Well, According to a study from twenty fifteen published in

0:26:18.720 --> 0:26:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the journal Personality and Individual Differences, psychopaths aren't so susceptible

0:26:23.440 --> 0:26:27.920
<v Speaker 1>to yawns. The researchers from Baylor University recruited one hundred

0:26:27.920 --> 0:26:31.440
<v Speaker 1>and thirty five students and measured their personalities for psychopathic traits.

0:26:31.800 --> 0:26:36.720
<v Speaker 1>They then subjected them to a contagious yawning experiment. Those

0:26:36.760 --> 0:26:40.800
<v Speaker 1>who scored highly on the psychopathic scale were far less

0:26:41.119 --> 0:26:44.920
<v Speaker 1>likely to catch ay on. So they have done real

0:26:44.960 --> 0:26:48.000
<v Speaker 1>life scientific studies. This has been in these like, it's

0:26:48.040 --> 0:26:49.760
<v Speaker 1>in journals, and a lot of people don't know about it.

0:26:49.800 --> 0:26:52.280
<v Speaker 1>So you guys all go home tonight yawn right in

0:26:52.320 --> 0:26:55.120
<v Speaker 1>front of your partner. See what happens? I also want

0:26:55.119 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 1>to say this.

0:26:55.920 --> 0:26:57.600
<v Speaker 2>Don't ever come to life on cart and say you

0:26:57.600 --> 0:27:00.800
<v Speaker 2>don't learn something totally. Don't ever don't ever turn around

0:27:00.840 --> 0:27:02.359
<v Speaker 2>and say, you know, those laugh uncut girls don't know

0:27:02.400 --> 0:27:04.400
<v Speaker 2>what they're talking about, because we do. We do our

0:27:04.440 --> 0:27:07.920
<v Speaker 2>research on everything, everything from yourn's to anal sex.

0:27:07.960 --> 0:27:09.399
<v Speaker 3>I don't know it's a real thinking.

0:27:09.560 --> 0:27:11.479
<v Speaker 1>I just think is when I told produce a Keisha this,

0:27:11.760 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 1>when I said no, this is a thing, she was

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:16.280
<v Speaker 1>in hysterics. She's like, as if what a load of shit?

0:27:16.359 --> 0:27:18.200
<v Speaker 1>And I was like, girl, google it and she goes,

0:27:18.240 --> 0:27:19.520
<v Speaker 1>oh my god, I can't believe it's real.

0:27:19.760 --> 0:27:22.000
<v Speaker 3>Every day's a school day, all right. Question number two.

0:27:22.080 --> 0:27:24.040
<v Speaker 2>My boyfriend and I have been together for five years.

0:27:24.080 --> 0:27:26.560
<v Speaker 2>We've lived together for two. We bought our dog a

0:27:26.640 --> 0:27:29.600
<v Speaker 2>year ago. We both see our future together and always

0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:33.080
<v Speaker 2>talk about it. I feel really strongly about getting engaged

0:27:33.080 --> 0:27:35.000
<v Speaker 2>and have been pretty clear about it, but it is

0:27:35.040 --> 0:27:37.800
<v Speaker 2>not in his mind. He always says things like, well,

0:27:37.800 --> 0:27:40.119
<v Speaker 2>what's the rush and we have everything we need, and

0:27:40.160 --> 0:27:42.960
<v Speaker 2>I think he genuinely believes that and means that. He

0:27:43.080 --> 0:27:45.919
<v Speaker 2>says he doesn't feel ready and that it's not me,

0:27:46.080 --> 0:27:49.680
<v Speaker 2>it's him. His parents are divorced, and so his grandparents, uncle, Annie,

0:27:49.760 --> 0:27:53.440
<v Speaker 2>sister's husband. Everyone is divorced. The family is full of divorce.

0:27:53.760 --> 0:27:55.720
<v Speaker 2>I am from a home where there has been no divorce.

0:27:56.080 --> 0:27:58.680
<v Speaker 2>I think we see marriage and engagement very differently because

0:27:58.680 --> 0:28:01.320
<v Speaker 2>of this. It has created some tense conversations and we

0:28:01.400 --> 0:28:04.119
<v Speaker 2>both understand how each other feel, but neither of us

0:28:04.160 --> 0:28:07.240
<v Speaker 2>will budge. Am I being stupid getting so worked up

0:28:07.320 --> 0:28:09.800
<v Speaker 2>over a ring when everything else is great.

0:28:10.119 --> 0:28:13.920
<v Speaker 1>This is a tricky one because some people do feel really,

0:28:13.920 --> 0:28:16.240
<v Speaker 1>really strongly. Maybe it's for a religious reason, or maybe

0:28:16.280 --> 0:28:19.600
<v Speaker 1>it's just a self validation for themselves about marriage and

0:28:19.640 --> 0:28:23.879
<v Speaker 1>about having the official document, the official ceremony, and taking

0:28:23.880 --> 0:28:24.920
<v Speaker 1>that next step as a couple.

0:28:24.960 --> 0:28:28.040
<v Speaker 3>And I think that's wonderful. Some people couldn't care less.

0:28:28.040 --> 0:28:30.120
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't mean anything to them, and it doesn't mean

0:28:30.160 --> 0:28:33.000
<v Speaker 1>that you mean anything less to them, Like that's super important.

0:28:33.359 --> 0:28:35.439
<v Speaker 1>You can find the love of your life and not

0:28:35.440 --> 0:28:37.480
<v Speaker 1>ever want to marry them, but you only ever want

0:28:37.480 --> 0:28:38.880
<v Speaker 1>to be with them for your entire life.

0:28:38.880 --> 0:28:40.520
<v Speaker 2>But the important thing is is that you share the

0:28:40.560 --> 0:28:43.360
<v Speaker 2>same views on it, because otherwise that mismatch can create

0:28:43.480 --> 0:28:46.840
<v Speaker 2>so much especially for the person who wants to get married.

0:28:46.880 --> 0:28:49.480
<v Speaker 2>It can create so many feelings of being invalidated.

0:28:49.960 --> 0:28:52.440
<v Speaker 1>I always think, and I have thought about this many times,

0:28:52.480 --> 0:28:54.840
<v Speaker 1>because over the years, this type of a question in

0:28:54.920 --> 0:28:58.040
<v Speaker 1>different variants has come through, and it is something that

0:28:58.320 --> 0:29:02.680
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be not taken seriously in your relationship. But what

0:29:02.720 --> 0:29:08.360
<v Speaker 1>I've always thought is relationships are about compromise always. Someone

0:29:08.400 --> 0:29:11.520
<v Speaker 1>is always going to have to compromise in a relationship

0:29:11.640 --> 0:29:14.280
<v Speaker 1>where you live, how many kids you have, what you

0:29:14.320 --> 0:29:16.080
<v Speaker 1>do for work, where you go for a holiday, who's

0:29:16.080 --> 0:29:18.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna look after the kids more, whatever, there's always a

0:29:18.080 --> 0:29:20.640
<v Speaker 1>compromise in this situation when one person wants to get

0:29:20.680 --> 0:29:24.080
<v Speaker 1>married and one person doesn't. I've always thought the happy

0:29:24.120 --> 0:29:27.480
<v Speaker 1>medium is can you be engaged so you've got the

0:29:27.520 --> 0:29:30.120
<v Speaker 1>meaning and the commitment, and you've got the ring and

0:29:30.160 --> 0:29:32.560
<v Speaker 1>you've had that special moment, because that moment means a

0:29:32.600 --> 0:29:35.480
<v Speaker 1>lot to people too, literally, just the proposal and those

0:29:35.560 --> 0:29:39.080
<v Speaker 1>words and the meaning behind the ring. Can you come

0:29:39.120 --> 0:29:42.200
<v Speaker 1>to a compromise where you have the ring and you

0:29:42.240 --> 0:29:45.120
<v Speaker 1>have the proposal, which means he's compromising to do that,

0:29:45.160 --> 0:29:46.480
<v Speaker 1>and you're compromising.

0:29:45.960 --> 0:29:46.680
<v Speaker 3>Without the wedding.

0:29:47.480 --> 0:29:50.320
<v Speaker 1>If you still want to have a wedding in terms

0:29:50.360 --> 0:29:53.400
<v Speaker 1>of a ceremony to celebrate with friends. But for him,

0:29:53.960 --> 0:29:55.680
<v Speaker 1>what's the reason he doesn't want to get married? Is

0:29:55.720 --> 0:29:58.440
<v Speaker 1>it because he doesn't want to sign a binding piece

0:29:58.480 --> 0:30:03.520
<v Speaker 1>of paper. Can you just have a more spiritual celebration

0:30:03.800 --> 0:30:07.360
<v Speaker 1>together where you have a moment, you tell each other

0:30:07.400 --> 0:30:09.120
<v Speaker 1>what you mean to each other, and you do everything

0:30:09.120 --> 0:30:10.240
<v Speaker 1>without it being official.

0:30:10.480 --> 0:30:13.400
<v Speaker 3>For me, I probably wouldn't want that. But that is

0:30:13.400 --> 0:30:16.760
<v Speaker 3>a compromise, I think it is. I agree with you, Britt.

0:30:16.800 --> 0:30:20.920
<v Speaker 2>It's a really really hard one because people come to

0:30:21.000 --> 0:30:24.200
<v Speaker 2>the decision about marriage based on their own upbringings, based

0:30:24.240 --> 0:30:26.600
<v Speaker 2>on their own experience of what marriage is and how

0:30:26.640 --> 0:30:29.360
<v Speaker 2>that was reflected in their households and how they grew

0:30:29.480 --> 0:30:32.120
<v Speaker 2>up exposed to it. And I guess the big thing

0:30:32.160 --> 0:30:34.240
<v Speaker 2>here is and the part that stands out to me

0:30:34.240 --> 0:30:36.960
<v Speaker 2>and your question is he says he's not ready. He said,

0:30:37.440 --> 0:30:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't feel ready to get married yet. He's not

0:30:39.720 --> 0:30:41.880
<v Speaker 2>saying he doesn't want to get married at all, he's

0:30:42.000 --> 0:30:44.640
<v Speaker 2>just not ready yet. And that may mean that in

0:30:44.720 --> 0:30:47.120
<v Speaker 2>the future he does feel ready, But what does that

0:30:47.160 --> 0:30:49.240
<v Speaker 2>look like in terms of a timeline and a time

0:30:49.280 --> 0:30:50.880
<v Speaker 2>frame for him? So I think it's very important to

0:30:50.880 --> 0:30:53.360
<v Speaker 2>sit down and have two separate conversations. One of them

0:30:53.480 --> 0:30:56.240
<v Speaker 2>is do you not want to get married at all

0:30:56.360 --> 0:30:59.080
<v Speaker 2>in your life or is it simply a matter of

0:30:59.360 --> 0:31:01.440
<v Speaker 2>you're not ready yet to get married, like you're not

0:31:01.440 --> 0:31:03.920
<v Speaker 2>at a point in our relationship or in terms of

0:31:03.920 --> 0:31:06.680
<v Speaker 2>what you see for us to get married, Because often

0:31:06.720 --> 0:31:09.080
<v Speaker 2>I think a lot of people think, well, once we

0:31:09.120 --> 0:31:11.160
<v Speaker 2>get married, we're going to have kids. Like I think

0:31:11.160 --> 0:31:12.960
<v Speaker 2>that a lot of people think that that's a normal

0:31:13.040 --> 0:31:13.920
<v Speaker 2>succession of time.

0:31:14.040 --> 0:31:16.320
<v Speaker 1>It's almost like the stepping stones, right, Oh, we have

0:31:16.400 --> 0:31:17.000
<v Speaker 1>to do this now.

0:31:17.160 --> 0:31:19.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, And I guess like for some people who maybe

0:31:19.400 --> 0:31:21.080
<v Speaker 2>want to slow that down, they'll say, well, I'm not

0:31:21.120 --> 0:31:24.040
<v Speaker 2>ready because it's like, well, once the wedding happens, then

0:31:24.200 --> 0:31:26.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, if they think that kids are on the cards,

0:31:26.120 --> 0:31:28.840
<v Speaker 2>it might speed up the process towards that next life decision,

0:31:28.840 --> 0:31:30.400
<v Speaker 2>and he might just be really happy with where his

0:31:30.480 --> 0:31:32.600
<v Speaker 2>life is at the moment. It doesn't mean he doesn't

0:31:32.600 --> 0:31:34.920
<v Speaker 2>want to marry you at all. But I say this

0:31:34.960 --> 0:31:37.440
<v Speaker 2>from someone who's come from a family where divorce was

0:31:37.440 --> 0:31:39.920
<v Speaker 2>also really prolific. My parents got divorced when I was three.

0:31:40.280 --> 0:31:43.160
<v Speaker 2>My mum got divorced again when I was eight. My

0:31:43.280 --> 0:31:46.040
<v Speaker 2>dad got divorced a second time when I was thirteen.

0:31:47.040 --> 0:31:47.760
<v Speaker 3>Around it a lot.

0:31:47.840 --> 0:31:51.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, my parents both got remarried. My dad separated again

0:31:51.480 --> 0:31:55.320
<v Speaker 2>a third time. So like marriage and divorce has been very,

0:31:55.440 --> 0:31:57.800
<v Speaker 2>very different in my family. And I always thought I

0:31:57.800 --> 0:32:00.360
<v Speaker 2>would never get married. That's not been a prayer already

0:32:00.440 --> 0:32:02.920
<v Speaker 2>to me in my relationships. It's probably also another reason

0:32:02.960 --> 0:32:05.400
<v Speaker 2>as to why I didn't take Matt's last name, because

0:32:05.720 --> 0:32:09.120
<v Speaker 2>for me, that piece of paper and that ceremony doesn't

0:32:09.120 --> 0:32:12.760
<v Speaker 2>hold the same weight. Although I do appreciate how incredible

0:32:12.960 --> 0:32:15.760
<v Speaker 2>the day was, and I also appreciate how incredible it

0:32:15.880 --> 0:32:19.360
<v Speaker 2>is to be married, because there's almost like another layer

0:32:19.520 --> 0:32:22.480
<v Speaker 2>of comfort I guess in being married that I wasn't

0:32:22.520 --> 0:32:25.880
<v Speaker 2>expecting personally. I kin't have expected it to not change anything. Also,

0:32:25.920 --> 0:32:28.760
<v Speaker 2>you've got great photos for the photo wall, so I'm

0:32:28.760 --> 0:32:30.880
<v Speaker 2>gonna have my own trant. I think on a base level,

0:32:30.920 --> 0:32:33.360
<v Speaker 2>like it hasn't changed our relationship, but it has given

0:32:33.360 --> 0:32:37.120
<v Speaker 2>me this little extra layer of security in knowing that

0:32:37.240 --> 0:32:38.880
<v Speaker 2>Matt's in it for the long haul. And I think

0:32:38.880 --> 0:32:40.800
<v Speaker 2>that that's what a lot of people get out of marriage,

0:32:40.880 --> 0:32:42.800
<v Speaker 2>you know, And and everyone kind of, like I said, feels

0:32:42.840 --> 0:32:45.520
<v Speaker 2>differently about it. But I do think it's important that

0:32:46.000 --> 0:32:49.360
<v Speaker 2>often the advice that I hear is like, well, if

0:32:49.360 --> 0:32:51.320
<v Speaker 2>he wanted to marry you, he would marry you, and like,

0:32:51.640 --> 0:32:53.040
<v Speaker 2>you know that you both have to be on the

0:32:53.040 --> 0:32:55.120
<v Speaker 2>same page. But I do think it is also really

0:32:55.160 --> 0:32:59.440
<v Speaker 2>important to take into consideration his experience and his feelings,

0:32:59.520 --> 0:33:02.040
<v Speaker 2>and to understand that just because he doesn't want to

0:33:02.080 --> 0:33:05.200
<v Speaker 2>get married doesn't invalidate your relationship. It doesn't mean he

0:33:05.240 --> 0:33:07.400
<v Speaker 2>loves you less, and it doesn't mean that that's not

0:33:07.480 --> 0:33:09.440
<v Speaker 2>something that might be on the cards for the future.

0:33:09.800 --> 0:33:12.200
<v Speaker 2>It just means that his experience of what marriage looks

0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:14.520
<v Speaker 2>like is very, very different to you. And I would

0:33:14.600 --> 0:33:18.400
<v Speaker 2>say definitely, don't discard your relationship or don't feel devalued,

0:33:18.520 --> 0:33:21.800
<v Speaker 2>or don't push for something too ferociously if everything else

0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:22.400
<v Speaker 2>is so great.

0:33:22.440 --> 0:33:25.080
<v Speaker 1>But you do need to understand the why. Why doesn't

0:33:25.280 --> 0:33:27.640
<v Speaker 1>Why isn't he ready yet? Because if you've been together

0:33:27.720 --> 0:33:29.720
<v Speaker 1>ten years and someone says I'm not ready, I'd.

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:33.160
<v Speaker 3>Be like, well, is that because it's me, lady? Yeah,

0:33:33.200 --> 0:33:34.320
<v Speaker 3>So you find out the why.

0:33:34.440 --> 0:33:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Is it something about his upbringing and that's what he's

0:33:36.800 --> 0:33:38.800
<v Speaker 1>scared about. Has he one hundred percent of been like,

0:33:38.880 --> 0:33:40.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to be with you forever.

0:33:40.600 --> 0:33:41.560
<v Speaker 3>I will give you the ring.

0:33:41.680 --> 0:33:43.640
<v Speaker 1>I will give you that to make you feel the commitment,

0:33:43.680 --> 0:33:46.320
<v Speaker 1>but it's just the marriage, because if he's still undecided

0:33:46.320 --> 0:33:48.920
<v Speaker 1>about you in any capacity, that's a red flag you

0:33:48.960 --> 0:33:50.000
<v Speaker 1>need to deal with separately.

0:33:50.400 --> 0:33:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I totally agree.

0:33:52.000 --> 0:33:53.760
<v Speaker 2>And look, if it does come to a point forew

0:33:53.800 --> 0:33:56.600
<v Speaker 2>where you're like, I don't want to be with you

0:33:56.880 --> 0:33:59.720
<v Speaker 2>unless marriage is in our long term future, like that

0:33:59.760 --> 0:34:03.000
<v Speaker 2>is a mandatory for your relationship, then it's a conversation

0:34:03.120 --> 0:34:05.240
<v Speaker 2>you have to have so that you're setting the expectation

0:34:05.360 --> 0:34:07.720
<v Speaker 2>for him instead of it becoming this thing where you're like, well,

0:34:07.720 --> 0:34:08.640
<v Speaker 2>when are you gonna propose?

0:34:08.680 --> 0:34:09.720
<v Speaker 3>Well, when are you going to propose?

0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:12.080
<v Speaker 2>And if he doesn't ever want to be married, it

0:34:12.160 --> 0:34:15.279
<v Speaker 2>becomes almost like an annoying thing that's brought up. I

0:34:15.280 --> 0:34:17.480
<v Speaker 2>think it's very important to have these conversations about, well,

0:34:17.480 --> 0:34:20.439
<v Speaker 2>what are our long term goals and what do you want?

0:34:20.480 --> 0:34:22.120
<v Speaker 2>What's a mandatory and what you want out of this

0:34:22.160 --> 0:34:25.200
<v Speaker 2>relationship and if marriage is one of those things, that's okay,

0:34:25.440 --> 0:34:28.160
<v Speaker 2>But it may require a lot more conversations to get there,

0:34:28.280 --> 0:34:30.400
<v Speaker 2>or it may require going and having some counseling or

0:34:30.400 --> 0:34:32.879
<v Speaker 2>sitting down with a third party to really air out

0:34:32.920 --> 0:34:35.480
<v Speaker 2>the reasons why these important to you and how you

0:34:35.520 --> 0:34:37.960
<v Speaker 2>can get to a place where it's like a comfortable solution.

0:34:38.200 --> 0:34:40.359
<v Speaker 1>Also, there are also depending on his reasons, there are

0:34:40.360 --> 0:34:43.040
<v Speaker 1>so many different options. If he's more like I don't

0:34:43.040 --> 0:34:44.680
<v Speaker 1>want to wed, I doesn't want a big wed in

0:34:44.719 --> 0:34:47.680
<v Speaker 1>totally a lope, Maybe he'll elope. Maybe he will go

0:34:47.760 --> 0:34:50.160
<v Speaker 1>to an island with you on a holiday, there's a celebrant,

0:34:50.200 --> 0:34:52.240
<v Speaker 1>it's just you two, doesn't have to be a big hooha.

0:34:52.520 --> 0:34:55.160
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that is a compromise as well. I think you're

0:34:55.160 --> 0:34:57.360
<v Speaker 1>not going to know until you figure out the why.

0:34:57.560 --> 0:35:00.400
<v Speaker 1>That is obviously deeping his soul, but it's very important

0:35:00.440 --> 0:35:03.080
<v Speaker 1>to moving forward. Do you think for you, like if yes,

0:35:03.160 --> 0:35:04.840
<v Speaker 1>I want a big ring and engagement and marriage.

0:35:04.880 --> 0:35:06.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, in case Ben's listening.

0:35:06.840 --> 0:35:08.719
<v Speaker 2>But if you were in a relationship with someone who

0:35:08.880 --> 0:35:12.040
<v Speaker 2>you felt safe, secure and loved and you knew that

0:35:12.080 --> 0:35:14.520
<v Speaker 2>they wanted to be with you, but they didn't want

0:35:14.560 --> 0:35:18.359
<v Speaker 2>to get married, would that be a deal breaker for you?

0:35:18.400 --> 0:35:18.600
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:35:18.920 --> 0:35:20.839
<v Speaker 1>I think I would be completely okay, But I would

0:35:20.880 --> 0:35:24.160
<v Speaker 1>want the engagement because for me, that is because I

0:35:24.200 --> 0:35:26.920
<v Speaker 1>want the ring. No, I mean I yes, but no,

0:35:27.560 --> 0:35:30.040
<v Speaker 1>in all honesty, I'm joking, I don't need a big ring,

0:35:30.280 --> 0:35:33.040
<v Speaker 1>but I like the idea of what you're saying. It's

0:35:33.040 --> 0:35:35.640
<v Speaker 1>a level of commitment where you feel and you shouldn't,

0:35:35.680 --> 0:35:39.960
<v Speaker 1>but you feel another level of certainty and safety and support.

0:35:40.040 --> 0:35:41.520
<v Speaker 3>And I think it's just a it's a.

0:35:41.480 --> 0:35:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Really nice sign to be like, I choose you to

0:35:45.480 --> 0:35:48.000
<v Speaker 1>live out my days with, and this is just like

0:35:48.120 --> 0:35:51.239
<v Speaker 1>a reiteration of that. Like, of course it's not the

0:35:51.280 --> 0:35:53.560
<v Speaker 1>be all and end all, but I would be happy

0:35:53.640 --> 0:35:56.920
<v Speaker 1>with an engagement and never getting married as a sign

0:35:56.960 --> 0:35:57.759
<v Speaker 1>of a commitment.

0:35:58.440 --> 0:36:01.279
<v Speaker 3>Not the ring, but the commit Yeah. I think there

0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:02.040
<v Speaker 3>was something for me.

0:36:02.080 --> 0:36:06.440
<v Speaker 2>There was something really special which I had not really

0:36:06.480 --> 0:36:09.360
<v Speaker 2>fully understood before I got married myself and had our wedding.

0:36:09.640 --> 0:36:12.080
<v Speaker 2>There was something really special about standing up in front

0:36:12.120 --> 0:36:15.160
<v Speaker 2>of all of our family and friends and telling each

0:36:15.160 --> 0:36:17.000
<v Speaker 2>other how much we loved each other and making that

0:36:17.160 --> 0:36:19.560
<v Speaker 2>verbal commitment in front of everyone. There was something really

0:36:19.600 --> 0:36:23.080
<v Speaker 2>solidifying in that moment. And I think because I've only

0:36:23.120 --> 0:36:26.880
<v Speaker 2>ever seen the negative byproduct of marriage, which is when

0:36:26.920 --> 0:36:29.680
<v Speaker 2>it breaks down, like I've never really witnessed in my

0:36:30.000 --> 0:36:33.799
<v Speaker 2>upbringing what a good marriage looks like I've only seen

0:36:33.840 --> 0:36:37.200
<v Speaker 2>how that commitment really doesn't mean anything when the wheels

0:36:37.200 --> 0:36:38.880
<v Speaker 2>fall off the wagon and you can get divorced.

0:36:39.160 --> 0:36:40.000
<v Speaker 3>So I witnessed.

0:36:40.080 --> 0:36:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I was the witness signing the witness wedding citypate for

0:36:43.080 --> 0:36:44.840
<v Speaker 1>Laura and Matt. But at the end I did like

0:36:44.880 --> 0:36:46.840
<v Speaker 1>a kiss, kiss and a smiling face, like I signed

0:36:46.840 --> 0:36:48.760
<v Speaker 1>my name, and I was like kiss, kiss, smiling face.

0:36:49.160 --> 0:36:51.720
<v Speaker 3>I actually don't know if that makes it null and void.

0:36:51.840 --> 0:36:52.600
<v Speaker 3>So I learned this.

0:36:52.640 --> 0:36:55.000
<v Speaker 2>Apparently what you sign on the wedding day is not

0:36:55.080 --> 0:36:56.719
<v Speaker 2>actually your real wedding certificate.

0:36:56.800 --> 0:36:58.799
<v Speaker 3>It's okay, Laura, No, it is.

0:36:58.880 --> 0:37:02.640
<v Speaker 2>It's your It's a wedding certificate that you keep that

0:37:02.680 --> 0:37:05.280
<v Speaker 2>you can frame or whatever. It's a pretty wedding certificate.

0:37:05.280 --> 0:37:07.040
<v Speaker 2>But it's not what's actually lodged to the government.

0:37:07.280 --> 0:37:08.919
<v Speaker 3>So it's okay. So she's still married.

0:37:09.000 --> 0:37:11.759
<v Speaker 2>You get married, I'm not Apparently, apparently it's all it's

0:37:11.760 --> 0:37:13.680
<v Speaker 2>all sign see delivered with the kiss kids.

0:37:13.320 --> 0:37:14.040
<v Speaker 3>In the smiley face.

0:37:16.000 --> 0:37:16.399
<v Speaker 2>All right.

0:37:16.520 --> 0:37:19.759
<v Speaker 1>Last question, My best friend has always struggled. This makes

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:22.040
<v Speaker 1>me angry. My best friend has always struggled with not

0:37:22.080 --> 0:37:24.640
<v Speaker 1>feeling good enough for the men she dates. She's had

0:37:24.640 --> 0:37:27.719
<v Speaker 1>a few situationships, but last year she got into her

0:37:27.800 --> 0:37:32.400
<v Speaker 1>first big official relationship. I really don't like her boyfriend,

0:37:32.719 --> 0:37:35.279
<v Speaker 1>but I haven't said anything because I feel like my

0:37:35.400 --> 0:37:37.799
<v Speaker 1>opinion shouldn't matter if she is happy with him, which

0:37:37.840 --> 0:37:40.400
<v Speaker 1>you know to a level is true. However, over this

0:37:40.440 --> 0:37:44.640
<v Speaker 1>past year I have heard him make comments about her weight. Now,

0:37:44.719 --> 0:37:47.040
<v Speaker 1>she has lost a lot of weight since she's been

0:37:47.040 --> 0:37:49.360
<v Speaker 1>with him, And last night we went out for dinner

0:37:49.400 --> 0:37:53.239
<v Speaker 1>and he made comments like, quote, you should work out

0:37:53.280 --> 0:37:55.799
<v Speaker 1>more when we get done with dinner, you should jog

0:37:55.880 --> 0:37:58.600
<v Speaker 1>back to the car, and are you going to finish

0:37:58.680 --> 0:38:01.279
<v Speaker 1>all of that? Worried about what his comments are doing

0:38:01.360 --> 0:38:04.480
<v Speaker 1>to her mentally, how do I talk to her about this?

0:38:04.680 --> 0:38:08.840
<v Speaker 3>And can I talk to her about this? That is

0:38:09.520 --> 0:38:10.480
<v Speaker 3>fucked ACKed?

0:38:10.840 --> 0:38:11.240
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

0:38:11.400 --> 0:38:14.240
<v Speaker 2>My very first thought is if these are the things

0:38:14.239 --> 0:38:17.640
<v Speaker 2>that he is comfortable saying in front of people, imagine

0:38:17.680 --> 0:38:21.440
<v Speaker 2>what is said not in front of people. We imagine

0:38:21.480 --> 0:38:24.879
<v Speaker 2>what's said in private. And maybe it's subtle, maybe it's

0:38:24.920 --> 0:38:27.799
<v Speaker 2>not subtle. But if she has had dramatic weight loss

0:38:27.920 --> 0:38:30.719
<v Speaker 2>and she's struggled with feeling good enough or pretty enough

0:38:30.840 --> 0:38:33.480
<v Speaker 2>or skinny enough in her relationships, I mean, this is

0:38:33.520 --> 0:38:34.239
<v Speaker 2>the type of thing that.

0:38:34.200 --> 0:38:37.160
<v Speaker 3>Can really trigger an eating disorder in someone.

0:38:37.320 --> 0:38:39.719
<v Speaker 2>This feeling of like he'll love me more if I

0:38:39.800 --> 0:38:42.680
<v Speaker 2>do this, or you know, I'll be more beautiful if

0:38:42.719 --> 0:38:46.200
<v Speaker 2>I eat less or lose weight or xyz. I actually

0:38:46.239 --> 0:38:47.719
<v Speaker 2>think you have to talk to her about it, but

0:38:47.760 --> 0:38:51.000
<v Speaker 2>do it in a very non accusatory way, especially because

0:38:51.040 --> 0:38:53.839
<v Speaker 2>you know from all the conversations we've had around non

0:38:53.920 --> 0:38:56.640
<v Speaker 2>physical forms of violence in a relationship, or control in

0:38:56.680 --> 0:38:59.439
<v Speaker 2>a relationship, or being in a relationship with somebody who

0:38:59.680 --> 0:39:02.200
<v Speaker 2>from the extreme to the mild. If you have a

0:39:02.280 --> 0:39:06.279
<v Speaker 2>friend who is dating someone and you are worried about them,

0:39:06.600 --> 0:39:08.959
<v Speaker 2>the last thing you want to do is be like, hey,

0:39:09.000 --> 0:39:10.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't like the way he treats you. I don't

0:39:10.760 --> 0:39:14.239
<v Speaker 2>like this, because you don't want to triangulate yourself and

0:39:14.480 --> 0:39:17.120
<v Speaker 2>make them try and protect their partner and not want

0:39:17.120 --> 0:39:18.960
<v Speaker 2>to talk to you about the issues in their relationship.

0:39:19.160 --> 0:39:20.840
<v Speaker 2>I think one of the things you could say is

0:39:21.320 --> 0:39:23.480
<v Speaker 2>I noticed how he made a lot of comments about

0:39:23.520 --> 0:39:25.640
<v Speaker 2>the things that you were eating. How does that make

0:39:25.640 --> 0:39:28.000
<v Speaker 2>you feel? And see if that opens up a way

0:39:28.000 --> 0:39:30.719
<v Speaker 2>for a conversation. I will also worry that if you

0:39:30.800 --> 0:39:32.160
<v Speaker 2>kind of come out and say, oh, you've lost a

0:39:32.160 --> 0:39:34.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of weight, I'm worried about you. If she's in

0:39:34.640 --> 0:39:37.319
<v Speaker 2>a period of mind where she's like quite happy about

0:39:37.320 --> 0:39:40.279
<v Speaker 2>the weight loss, or she's like wants to lose more weight,

0:39:40.640 --> 0:39:44.160
<v Speaker 2>you can almost like interpret it that as like reinforcement

0:39:44.239 --> 0:39:44.760
<v Speaker 2>that you're.

0:39:44.560 --> 0:39:45.520
<v Speaker 3>Doing a good thing.

0:39:45.560 --> 0:39:47.439
<v Speaker 2>Like I remember back in the day, and I say

0:39:47.440 --> 0:39:49.879
<v Speaker 2>this because I went through a period where I had

0:39:50.080 --> 0:39:52.560
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't say I didn't have an eating disorder, but

0:39:52.600 --> 0:39:54.879
<v Speaker 2>I had disordered eating. Like those two things I think

0:39:54.920 --> 0:39:57.400
<v Speaker 2>can be slightly different. I lost so much weight. I

0:39:57.480 --> 0:39:59.880
<v Speaker 2>was so thin, and it just came after a breakup,

0:40:00.480 --> 0:40:02.960
<v Speaker 2>and I thought I looked amazing.

0:40:03.120 --> 0:40:05.040
<v Speaker 3>And when people would say to me, oh, you know,

0:40:05.560 --> 0:40:07.160
<v Speaker 3>are you okay? You've lost a lot of weight.

0:40:07.360 --> 0:40:10.080
<v Speaker 2>I used that as reinforcement of like, yes, yeah, I've

0:40:10.120 --> 0:40:12.240
<v Speaker 2>lost a lot of weight. It was almost a thanks

0:40:12.239 --> 0:40:14.600
<v Speaker 2>for noticing, like yeah, it was almost a compliment. I

0:40:14.640 --> 0:40:16.640
<v Speaker 2>didn't take it as though it was a concern. I

0:40:16.640 --> 0:40:18.680
<v Speaker 2>took it as a reinforcement that what I was doing

0:40:18.760 --> 0:40:20.840
<v Speaker 2>was working. So I think you have to be very

0:40:20.880 --> 0:40:23.680
<v Speaker 2>careful when speaking about weight with people, especially people who

0:40:23.680 --> 0:40:25.960
<v Speaker 2>have had dramatic weight loss, and also when they may

0:40:26.000 --> 0:40:29.279
<v Speaker 2>be in a relationship that's a problematic relationship. I think

0:40:29.320 --> 0:40:30.960
<v Speaker 2>the biggest thing that you can do is be that

0:40:31.000 --> 0:40:34.480
<v Speaker 2>person of support there, have oversight, try and be as

0:40:34.480 --> 0:40:36.880
<v Speaker 2>close as possible so you have oversight over what's happening

0:40:36.880 --> 0:40:39.120
<v Speaker 2>in the relationship, so you can see more as to

0:40:39.640 --> 0:40:43.200
<v Speaker 2>how the dynamic is. How he speaks to her, start

0:40:43.239 --> 0:40:46.279
<v Speaker 2>off with just you know, are you okay? Did that

0:40:46.400 --> 0:40:49.080
<v Speaker 2>upset you when he says these things to you? Because

0:40:49.160 --> 0:40:51.720
<v Speaker 2>you know you are so beautiful, you are so perfect,

0:40:51.719 --> 0:40:53.640
<v Speaker 2>and I would hate for you to feel as though

0:40:53.640 --> 0:40:56.239
<v Speaker 2>you're not that in your relationship. And see if that

0:40:56.320 --> 0:40:59.320
<v Speaker 2>opens up a pathway for communication for her to express

0:40:59.320 --> 0:41:01.719
<v Speaker 2>how she's feeling, because it may be enough for her

0:41:01.800 --> 0:41:03.520
<v Speaker 2>to be able to come to you and talk to

0:41:03.560 --> 0:41:05.279
<v Speaker 2>you about what she's experiencing. Yeah.

0:41:05.280 --> 0:41:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Look, there are definitely boundaries in a friendship that you

0:41:09.560 --> 0:41:12.439
<v Speaker 1>don't cross, and definitely reasons you don't approach someone about

0:41:12.440 --> 0:41:15.520
<v Speaker 1>their relationship, but I don't think this is one of them.

0:41:15.600 --> 0:41:20.040
<v Speaker 1>I think as a friend, this is one hundred percent

0:41:20.120 --> 0:41:21.680
<v Speaker 1>something you do need to do. I think you do

0:41:21.800 --> 0:41:24.640
<v Speaker 1>need to have these conversations because it is not normal,

0:41:25.040 --> 0:41:27.760
<v Speaker 1>it is not right, and it is very obviously affecting

0:41:27.760 --> 0:41:30.120
<v Speaker 1>her mental health and the way she lives her life.

0:41:30.200 --> 0:41:32.800
<v Speaker 1>So I think you one hundred percent. I would say

0:41:33.080 --> 0:41:35.040
<v Speaker 1>you need to speak to your friend. It's just a

0:41:35.040 --> 0:41:37.480
<v Speaker 1>matter of how. And everything you just said is so right, Laura.

0:41:37.560 --> 0:41:39.399
<v Speaker 1>I don't need to reiterate what you just said because

0:41:39.440 --> 0:41:42.200
<v Speaker 1>it's true. It's how you approach it. It's really hard, though,

0:41:42.320 --> 0:41:44.799
<v Speaker 1>it's so hard, but I think this is why we

0:41:44.880 --> 0:41:47.120
<v Speaker 1>have friends, right, And she's one of your closest friends.

0:41:47.120 --> 0:41:49.359
<v Speaker 1>This is why we have them. There are moments in

0:41:49.400 --> 0:41:50.960
<v Speaker 1>life that they need to step in, and I think

0:41:50.960 --> 0:41:52.400
<v Speaker 1>this is one of them. The only other thing that

0:41:52.400 --> 0:41:54.399
<v Speaker 1>I would add to what you said, Laura, is that

0:41:54.680 --> 0:41:58.400
<v Speaker 1>she hasn't been in a relationship before, so this is

0:41:58.440 --> 0:42:02.319
<v Speaker 1>her first relationship. She has nothing to compare it to.

0:42:02.560 --> 0:42:05.840
<v Speaker 1>She doesn't know what a normal relationship is. She probably

0:42:05.840 --> 0:42:08.080
<v Speaker 1>doesn't know what respect in a relationship is, what compromise

0:42:08.120 --> 0:42:10.120
<v Speaker 1>in a relationship, the ups, the downs, the highest.

0:42:10.719 --> 0:42:11.520
<v Speaker 3>She's got nothing to.

0:42:11.440 --> 0:42:13.920
<v Speaker 1>Compare it to, and we know that we live and

0:42:13.920 --> 0:42:17.080
<v Speaker 1>we learn. Right, I'm different in a relationship now because

0:42:17.160 --> 0:42:19.400
<v Speaker 1>of the relationships I've been in. I'm different now because

0:42:19.400 --> 0:42:21.840
<v Speaker 1>of the shit I've been in. I was with people

0:42:22.480 --> 0:42:24.600
<v Speaker 1>way more fucked than this, and I was with them

0:42:24.600 --> 0:42:27.279
<v Speaker 1>because I didn't know better, and I know better now

0:42:27.320 --> 0:42:30.240
<v Speaker 1>and I would never do it again. So maybe something

0:42:30.239 --> 0:42:33.080
<v Speaker 1>else you need to approach her with is very gently

0:42:33.600 --> 0:42:36.480
<v Speaker 1>exactly what you said, Laura. I noticed that these you

0:42:36.520 --> 0:42:38.319
<v Speaker 1>know comments are made around you. Wait last night, how

0:42:38.360 --> 0:42:40.239
<v Speaker 1>do you feel about it? Blah blah blah blah. But then

0:42:40.280 --> 0:42:43.520
<v Speaker 1>i'd be saying, just so you know, it's not be

0:42:43.640 --> 0:42:46.000
<v Speaker 1>with like, this is not a normal thing in a relationship,

0:42:46.040 --> 0:42:47.840
<v Speaker 1>Like I want you to know that, because maybe you

0:42:47.920 --> 0:42:51.520
<v Speaker 1>don't know that, but you should be with somebody that

0:42:51.560 --> 0:42:53.279
<v Speaker 1>loves you exactly how you are and doesn't want to

0:42:53.360 --> 0:42:55.480
<v Speaker 1>change you. Because I think a really big part of

0:42:55.480 --> 0:42:57.799
<v Speaker 1>this is that she doesn't know that it's not a

0:42:57.840 --> 0:43:00.600
<v Speaker 1>normal thing. She might think that every second person is

0:43:00.640 --> 0:43:02.880
<v Speaker 1>doing this and it's normal to tell your partner, and

0:43:03.000 --> 0:43:04.960
<v Speaker 1>you don't also know how he's doing it. He might

0:43:05.000 --> 0:43:08.080
<v Speaker 1>be praising it as I'd be more attracted to you

0:43:08.080 --> 0:43:08.719
<v Speaker 1>if you lost weight.

0:43:08.760 --> 0:43:10.880
<v Speaker 3>It might not just be like lose weight, be better.

0:43:10.920 --> 0:43:13.319
<v Speaker 1>It might also be like you'd be hotter, if you'd

0:43:13.360 --> 0:43:16.320
<v Speaker 1>be hotter, if we'd have better sex, if.

0:43:16.000 --> 0:43:17.799
<v Speaker 2>But also, I don't think it's just a matter of

0:43:17.880 --> 0:43:20.279
<v Speaker 2>like not knowing. I don't think it's just ignorance. Oh,

0:43:20.320 --> 0:43:21.480
<v Speaker 2>it's a whole lot, I think.

0:43:21.600 --> 0:43:21.799
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:43:21.800 --> 0:43:24.560
<v Speaker 2>I think a big contributing factor of like this type

0:43:24.600 --> 0:43:27.560
<v Speaker 2>of potential, you know, staying in a relationship and changing

0:43:27.560 --> 0:43:30.440
<v Speaker 2>yourself when it comes from insecurities, it comes from feelings

0:43:30.440 --> 0:43:33.160
<v Speaker 2>of being invalidated, It comes from feelings of I'm not

0:43:33.200 --> 0:43:35.040
<v Speaker 2>going to get anything better than this, and I want

0:43:35.120 --> 0:43:36.080
<v Speaker 2>him to love me more?

0:43:36.120 --> 0:43:38.200
<v Speaker 3>So what can I do to be loved more? And

0:43:38.200 --> 0:43:39.080
<v Speaker 3>it's X, Y and Z.

0:43:39.680 --> 0:43:42.000
<v Speaker 2>The other thing, I would have found it so hard

0:43:42.080 --> 0:43:44.000
<v Speaker 2>as a friend in that situation. I would have found

0:43:44.040 --> 0:43:46.160
<v Speaker 2>it so hard to not say something to him at

0:43:46.160 --> 0:43:48.239
<v Speaker 2>the time, to not say, do you know what she

0:43:48.239 --> 0:43:50.239
<v Speaker 2>doesn't have to run back to the car, or you know,

0:43:50.239 --> 0:43:51.440
<v Speaker 2>are you gonna eat everything.

0:43:51.160 --> 0:43:54.320
<v Speaker 3>On your plate? I would have had to have bitten

0:43:54.400 --> 0:43:55.000
<v Speaker 3>my tongue.

0:43:55.040 --> 0:43:58.680
<v Speaker 2>And I think it's like, I'm quite a fiery person

0:43:58.719 --> 0:44:01.839
<v Speaker 2>at times, and I find it to not speak when

0:44:01.840 --> 0:44:03.680
<v Speaker 2>I see something that I think is an injustice, you know,

0:44:03.760 --> 0:44:06.560
<v Speaker 2>like if I'm ever in a situation where my friend's

0:44:06.640 --> 0:44:09.080
<v Speaker 2>partners don't speak well to them, or I don't like

0:44:09.160 --> 0:44:11.200
<v Speaker 2>the tone or whatever, I'm the first person to be like,

0:44:11.200 --> 0:44:13.640
<v Speaker 2>don't speak to her like that. But that's also because

0:44:13.640 --> 0:44:15.799
<v Speaker 2>I have a relationship with their partners, and I know

0:44:15.880 --> 0:44:18.080
<v Speaker 2>that they are actually good people. I have a good

0:44:18.120 --> 0:44:20.480
<v Speaker 2>insight into their relationship, and I know where my boundaries

0:44:20.520 --> 0:44:22.480
<v Speaker 2>lie with them, and I know where their boundaries lie

0:44:22.480 --> 0:44:24.319
<v Speaker 2>with me. But I guess the big thing with this

0:44:24.400 --> 0:44:26.440
<v Speaker 2>guy is that you probably don't have a relationship with

0:44:26.520 --> 0:44:28.759
<v Speaker 2>him yet, and you are still getting to know the

0:44:28.840 --> 0:44:31.279
<v Speaker 2>dynamics of their relationship. So I think the best thing

0:44:31.320 --> 0:44:33.960
<v Speaker 2>you can do right now is support her and reinforce

0:44:34.040 --> 0:44:36.480
<v Speaker 2>to her what isn't isn't normal, and what she should

0:44:36.520 --> 0:44:40.080
<v Speaker 2>and shouldn't put up within a relationship. Because really, like

0:44:40.360 --> 0:44:43.720
<v Speaker 2>these small little digs, although they may seem insignificant, although

0:44:43.719 --> 0:44:45.400
<v Speaker 2>they may not seem like a very big deal at

0:44:45.440 --> 0:44:47.520
<v Speaker 2>the moment, I go back to this idea of like, well,

0:44:47.560 --> 0:44:50.040
<v Speaker 2>if he's saying multiple things at dinner in front of

0:44:50.040 --> 0:44:52.239
<v Speaker 2>people who he doesn't know, what is he saying to

0:44:52.280 --> 0:44:53.320
<v Speaker 2>her behind closed doors?

0:44:53.360 --> 0:44:54.880
<v Speaker 1>But on top of that, he's saying this at the

0:44:54.880 --> 0:44:57.600
<v Speaker 1>beginning of a relationship, there's only downhill from them. Yeah,

0:44:57.600 --> 0:44:59.640
<v Speaker 1>it's only going to get worse. That's your baseline, it's

0:44:59.640 --> 0:45:00.680
<v Speaker 1>gonna snowballs.

0:45:00.680 --> 0:45:03.160
<v Speaker 2>So nothing worse than seeing someone you love in a

0:45:03.200 --> 0:45:05.560
<v Speaker 2>relationship with a person who you know is shit.

0:45:05.800 --> 0:45:08.160
<v Speaker 3>I have gone to a friend before in a situation

0:45:08.239 --> 0:45:10.040
<v Speaker 3>like this. I have been so open.

0:45:10.080 --> 0:45:11.560
<v Speaker 1>I've been gentle at the start, and I've gotten to

0:45:11.560 --> 0:45:14.200
<v Speaker 1>a point where I'm like, I cannot tell you how

0:45:14.280 --> 0:45:17.120
<v Speaker 1>much this is not normal, and you cannot be in

0:45:17.120 --> 0:45:20.840
<v Speaker 1>this relationship anymore. Obviously that it was quite a serious situation,

0:45:21.800 --> 0:45:24.759
<v Speaker 1>but I would not be doing my job as a

0:45:24.800 --> 0:45:27.920
<v Speaker 1>friend to sit back and let those situations continue. And

0:45:28.080 --> 0:45:30.520
<v Speaker 1>as I said, if this is the baseline for the

0:45:30.520 --> 0:45:32.760
<v Speaker 1>starter of the relationship and this is what's happening in public,

0:45:32.840 --> 0:45:34.480
<v Speaker 1>it's going to be ten times worse in a year,

0:45:34.520 --> 0:45:37.120
<v Speaker 1>and ten times worse behind closed doors. So I would

0:45:37.160 --> 0:45:40.719
<v Speaker 1>gently take those steps and action your thoughts and the

0:45:40.760 --> 0:45:41.319
<v Speaker 1>worries now.

0:45:41.400 --> 0:45:43.399
<v Speaker 2>The only thing I would add to this, the last

0:45:43.400 --> 0:45:47.160
<v Speaker 2>thing is for anyone listening, for anyone who has experienced

0:45:47.160 --> 0:45:50.440
<v Speaker 2>something similar. You should never be in a relationship with

0:45:50.480 --> 0:45:53.760
<v Speaker 2>someone who thinks it's okay to say things that slightly

0:45:53.840 --> 0:45:57.720
<v Speaker 2>humiliate you, like it is humiliating to have somebody calorie

0:45:57.800 --> 0:45:59.799
<v Speaker 2>check your meals or to make you feel bad about

0:45:59.800 --> 0:46:02.680
<v Speaker 2>the you look, especially doing it in front of other people.

0:46:03.080 --> 0:46:05.840
<v Speaker 2>All that's doing is eroding your self confidence. It's eroding

0:46:05.840 --> 0:46:09.279
<v Speaker 2>the way that you your self esteem, and ultimately it'll

0:46:09.280 --> 0:46:11.000
<v Speaker 2>get you to a place where you think you need

0:46:11.040 --> 0:46:13.920
<v Speaker 2>to change in order to be better. Nobody should be

0:46:13.920 --> 0:46:16.240
<v Speaker 2>in a relationship with somebody who thinks they have control

0:46:16.280 --> 0:46:19.160
<v Speaker 2>over another person like that. And if your partner does

0:46:19.680 --> 0:46:22.560
<v Speaker 2>make consistent little jabs at you, If your partner or

0:46:22.600 --> 0:46:24.759
<v Speaker 2>you dated someone who does put you down, even if

0:46:24.760 --> 0:46:27.840
<v Speaker 2>it's subtly, but it's consistent, that is not a relationship

0:46:27.880 --> 0:46:29.920
<v Speaker 2>you should be in. And I hope for better. For
