Valerie Rewrote the Rules, and Everyone’s Taking Notes 💅

WEBVTT

00:00:00.959 --> 00:00:03.919
Oh my god, I just totally got catfished.

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.080
He looks absolutely nothing like his picture.

00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:11.039
So I found out the guy that I've been dating is married with kids.

00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:13.679
His wife just reached out to me.

00:00:15.119 --> 00:00:16.239
Welcome to the meat market.

00:00:16.399 --> 00:00:19.280
The single scene is a slaughterhouse, and we are here to devour it.

00:00:19.359 --> 00:00:20.000
We are your hosts.

00:00:20.079 --> 00:00:20.640
I'm Lindsay.

00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:21.120
I'm Jess.

00:00:21.199 --> 00:00:23.120
And today's sizzling single is Valerie.

00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:23.679
Welcome.

00:00:23.920 --> 00:00:24.239
Hi.

00:00:24.559 --> 00:00:26.960
So we hear you have a toxic ex.

00:00:27.120 --> 00:00:28.000
Tell us about that.

00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:29.280
Ugh, yes.

00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:33.920
I won't say too many things, but I do have a toxic ex.

00:00:34.079 --> 00:00:34.719
It was a woman.

00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:36.880
I was with her for four years.

00:00:37.280 --> 00:00:40.079
And I should have seen it from the very beginning.

00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:42.159
There were red flags everywhere.

00:00:42.479 --> 00:00:45.280
She was very flirty with her friends.

00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:53.439
And anytime I would mention, like, hey, I think this friend might like you, she would get upset at me and we would have arguments.

00:00:53.759 --> 00:00:58.320
But she was the first woman I ever dated, so I ignored a lot of signs.

00:00:58.640 --> 00:01:04.319
And she was very quick to I guess uh turn it around on me.

00:01:04.560 --> 00:01:05.760
I hate it when people do that.

00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:08.480
Spin things to make themselves the victim.

00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:09.359
Exactly.

00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:10.799
And she was really good at it.

00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:15.200
Like, if I can give a crown to the best manipulator in the world, it would be her.

00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:16.159
Interesting.

00:01:16.319 --> 00:01:19.519
What were some of the other red flags besides being super flirty?

00:01:19.760 --> 00:01:21.599
Uh keeping a lot of secrets.

00:01:21.840 --> 00:01:22.959
Oh, huge red flag.

00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:23.519
Yeah.

00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:25.359
And then getting caught in lies.

00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:27.120
She was a huge liar.

00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:31.120
Like I would catch her in small lies.

00:01:31.280 --> 00:01:36.719
Like she would say, Oh, I'm going to Chicago for a weekend.

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:38.319
And then it turns out she wasn't.

00:01:38.400 --> 00:01:39.120
She was at home.

00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:40.239
Yeah.

00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:41.599
Was she a love bomber?

00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:42.319
Oh, yeah.

00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:43.359
Did she love bomb you?

00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:45.439
She was the best at that as well.

00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:47.760
She took me on the best dates.

00:01:47.920 --> 00:01:51.840
She said she loved me, I think, within two months.

00:01:52.239 --> 00:01:57.359
And let's see, we traveled a lot, like within the first year.

00:01:57.680 --> 00:01:59.519
People who love bomb, they're the worst.

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:00.319
Why is that?

00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.319
They're the cheaters and they're the toxic.

00:02:05.120 --> 00:02:08.800
But so speaking of love, toxic love bombing.

00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:13.599
So I was recently, why do I have so many stories recently when I'm at my waxer?

00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.039
So I was recently getting a wax.

00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:20.159
And so like a little background information.

00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:22.159
So my waxer had a baby.

00:02:22.240 --> 00:02:23.599
So she was on maternity leave.

00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:26.000
And then I was out of town for like five weeks.

00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:30.479
And so I hadn't seen her in a long time, right?

00:02:30.719 --> 00:02:36.560
And so she just because I hadn't seen her, she's like, Are we just doing the regular?

00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:38.639
And I'm like, well, yeah, like what?

00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:41.520
I mean, are people doing like designs or something down there?

00:02:41.680 --> 00:02:42.000
Like, what?

00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:42.960
Like, what do you mean?

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:53.120
And she's like, no, actually, she's like, last year on Valentine's Day, a woman asked me to wax an initial into her pubic hair.

00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:53.360
Oh.

00:02:53.599 --> 00:02:55.199
And I was like, oh my God.

00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:56.560
I was like, did you do it?

00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:57.360
And she said, yeah.

00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:02.639
And I was like, that sounds like a toxic love bombing situation.

00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:04.479
And I said, what was the letter?

00:03:04.719 --> 00:03:06.960
And she goes, guess what letter it was?

00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:08.639
And I guessed it on the first guess.

00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:09.280
Jay?

00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:12.800
So I guess it was Jay! I guess it was on the first guess.

00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:17.680
So I was gonna ask you, what's your do you have a guess for a toxic name?

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:19.759
So or a toxic letter.

00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:24.719
Well, if it's Jay, then I was did they tell you the name?

00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:25.759
Yeah, she said it was Jay.

00:03:26.879 --> 00:03:30.879
She didn't tell me the name, but she said the letter that she waxed in was a J.

00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:34.639
It's funny how people always say, never date a guy that starts with a J.

00:03:35.360 --> 00:03:35.520
Why?

00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:37.280
Is it because there's so many names with Jay?

00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:38.719
Justin, Jake.

00:03:38.879 --> 00:03:39.280
I don't know.

00:03:39.360 --> 00:03:40.240
Why is Jay?

00:03:40.479 --> 00:03:50.800
Well, and maybe because it's common across races, because there's like there's Jose and all like Jay names in in Latin.

00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:59.439
And then Jaden and Jalen and one of the worst guys that I ever dated was a Jay.

00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:00.240
Me too.

00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:00.719
Yeah.

00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:01.520
Oh my gosh.

00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:01.840
Yeah.

00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:03.919
Actually, no, I think really?

00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:08.240
Yeah, I dated a Juan and I dated a what was his name?

00:04:08.479 --> 00:04:09.280
Javion?

00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:11.199
Javier, something like that.

00:04:11.599 --> 00:04:12.400
And they were bad.

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:13.439
Yeah, very bad.

00:04:13.599 --> 00:04:14.319
Very toxic.

00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:16.639
So you date men and women.

00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:19.439
Do you have a preference between the two?

00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:20.399
I do.

00:04:21.120 --> 00:04:27.360
As of the last few years, I prefer to date women, but I am open to still dating men.

00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:28.879
I'm just very picky.

00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:29.680
Yeah.

00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:31.600
What is the biggest difference between the two?

00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:32.639
Would you say?

00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:40.560
I would say the biggest difference would have to be the lack of toxic masculinity.

00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:53.519
So obviously women were a lot softer, and there's not like a competition of who can get the bill or who looks tough or who can be the protector.

00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:59.279
It's kind of like you're just besties that are also attracted to each other, if that makes sense.

00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:04.240
So who in your preference, who does get the bill when you go out with a woman?

00:05:04.959 --> 00:05:06.560
Okay, typically not me.

00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:10.639
But I'm more open to it.

00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:17.600
I feel like with men, unfortunately, I already have the idea that they should, you know, pay for things.

00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:19.439
So I don't typically offer.

00:05:19.680 --> 00:05:19.839
Yeah.

00:05:20.160 --> 00:05:21.680
So how do you meet women out here?

00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:23.279
Are you on the dating apps?

00:05:23.600 --> 00:05:24.879
I am now.

00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.920
Um, I am on bumble and hinge.

00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:34.959
And so far it's going okay, it's not going great.

00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:36.319
Let me be honest.

00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:45.759
It's not going great because I feel like you're just swiping left and then on hinge, the ones that reach out to me are saying the craziest things.

00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:49.600
And I kind of feel like I should take a break from it.

00:05:49.839 --> 00:05:53.360
Isn't is Hinge the one where the man is supposed to message first?

00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:54.000
Bumble.

00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:55.199
Oh, that's bumble.

00:05:55.439 --> 00:06:00.639
Okay, I was gonna ask then how that works if it's if it's two women, if you're interested in women.

00:06:01.279 --> 00:06:01.920
That's a good question.

00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:04.160
So with two women, it's up to both of us.

00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:04.560
Okay.

00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:04.959
Okay.

00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:05.439
Yeah.

00:06:05.600 --> 00:06:05.839
Okay.

00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:07.279
I still don't message first.

00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:08.879
So what's your type?

00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:10.319
What do you like?

00:06:10.560 --> 00:06:11.439
The feminine type?

00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:13.839
What is it, the lipstick lesbians that they call them?

00:06:14.079 --> 00:06:14.720
Yes.

00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:21.920
So I would like to say as far as attraction, I'm open to all, like more masculine or more feminine.

00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:25.839
But when it comes to relationship, I prefer what we call a STEM.

00:06:26.319 --> 00:06:26.879
What is that?

00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:30.800
So it's like a stud and femme mixed together.

00:06:31.040 --> 00:06:34.959
And so it's like the play on masculine and feminine energy in one person.

00:06:35.199 --> 00:06:35.519
Okay.

00:06:35.759 --> 00:06:36.399
Yeah.

00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:44.160
Is there like a place, like a club that you can go to to meet other women or like physical places where you can meet them in the wild?

00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:46.399
Yes.

00:06:46.959 --> 00:06:47.920
There is.

00:06:48.240 --> 00:06:51.519
So do you want me to say the names of them?

00:06:52.000 --> 00:06:58.079
There's Charlie's, which I don't actually suggest going there because everyone's very chaotic.

00:06:58.560 --> 00:06:58.879
Really?

00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:04.560
But it's a gay bar, so a lot of gay men and then like gay women and even straight people go there.

00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:06.240
Yeah, I've been to Charlie's many times.

00:07:06.399 --> 00:07:06.959
I like Charlie's.

00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:07.839
I like the taco shop.

00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:09.360
I like the taco shop that's attached to it.

00:07:09.600 --> 00:07:10.160
No, right?

00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:11.600
Taco tacos.

00:07:12.959 --> 00:07:14.079
Everyone always says that.

00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:18.560
Like if you go there, you go there for the tacos and the quesadillas.

00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:19.040
Yep.

00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:21.600
But people don't know you can also go there for the burgers.

00:07:22.240 --> 00:07:26.240
It sounds crazy, but if you wait an hour, you'll get the best burger you've ever had.

00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:28.560
Are they still cash only, the taco place?

00:07:29.040 --> 00:07:29.279
No.

00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:40.560
Because I remember years ago, my friend and I were going and we were literally tearing his car apart trying to find change because neither one of us had any cash and we won.

00:07:42.319 --> 00:07:42.959
I was so mad.

00:07:43.120 --> 00:07:43.680
It was so funny.

00:07:43.920 --> 00:07:44.720
Did you ever find some?

00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:45.600
Oh yeah, we found some.

00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:48.399
You found enough change for the tacos.

00:07:49.360 --> 00:08:01.600
Like offering services to people that's funny because I was with my gay friend, so I would have offered his services for nine dollars this way.

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:03.759
I love that.

00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:06.240
That is very gay coded too.

00:08:06.720 --> 00:08:06.959
Yes.

00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:07.199
Yeah.

00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:10.959
So there used to be, there used to be a bar, cash.

00:08:11.120 --> 00:08:12.560
Was it called Cash in?

00:08:12.800 --> 00:08:14.639
Does that still is that still a place here?

00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:17.439
Oh, I wasn't more about the Classbian bar.

00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:21.279
I think it was more women than it was men in terms of a gay bar.

00:08:21.439 --> 00:08:22.079
But I don't know what I'm saying.

00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:22.800
I think I've been there.

00:08:23.040 --> 00:08:26.399
I don't I haven't been there for years and years and years, but I do remember that place.

00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:27.600
Okay.

00:08:28.000 --> 00:08:31.279
I think I might know what you guys are referring to.

00:08:31.680 --> 00:08:34.720
It might be this bar that's next to Karumbas.

00:08:34.879 --> 00:08:36.240
I don't know if you've heard of Karumbas.

00:08:36.480 --> 00:08:37.440
It's Phoenix.

00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:38.080
Phoenix?

00:08:38.240 --> 00:08:38.320
Okay.

00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:38.799
Yeah.

00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:39.600
McDowell.

00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:41.360
I feel like Cash was on McDowell.

00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:42.080
Maybe.

00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:42.639
I don't know.

00:08:42.799 --> 00:08:43.279
I don't know.

00:08:43.360 --> 00:08:44.480
I feel like I don't know.

00:08:44.559 --> 00:08:48.320
I feel like you probably have better luck just going to any old place.

00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:48.799
Yeah.

00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:49.120
Right?

00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:52.080
Than going to a specific gay bar.

00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:57.360
Have you ever if if you see a woman that you're attracted to, do you make the first move?

00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:01.840
Okay, so oftentimes I do make the first move, but I'm a flirt.

00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:03.840
So what is your line?

00:09:04.960 --> 00:09:06.080
Compliment them.

00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:14.480
So go up and tell them, oh my gosh, I love your outfit, or you're so beautiful, or like, I've been seeing you around.

00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:16.080
You know, the typical things.

00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:18.399
And that just gets them to pay attention.

00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:24.639
And then you see how they look at you, like if they're interested, if they're actually gay, and you go from there.

00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:27.519
And how do you feel about like polyamorous relationships?

00:09:27.600 --> 00:09:29.039
Would you be open to that?

00:09:29.600 --> 00:09:31.440
It's also very popular in the community.

00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:32.240
Is it really?

00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:36.000
Yeah, but I'm not more of a poly girl.

00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:40.879
I feel like I would say I'm either monogamous or open.

00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:41.519
Okay.

00:09:41.919 --> 00:09:45.200
So for me, I like all the attention.

00:09:45.440 --> 00:09:52.240
But we can possibly explore someone together, or I don't care if my partner's like flirting with someone as long as I'm aware.

00:09:52.960 --> 00:09:57.120
So you're okay for like a one-night thing, but not for like of an entire relationship.

00:09:57.279 --> 00:09:57.840
You're not comfortable.

00:09:58.559 --> 00:09:58.879
Yeah.

00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:04.879
Unless it's like we see this friend every few months and hook up with them, then I can be comfortable with that.

00:10:05.279 --> 00:10:09.679
But again, I have to be the main person that you think about.

00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:20.879
If you're attracted to a man and you're you're out in public attracted to a man, are you gonna go up to the man as well like you would with a woman, or do you prefer to take the more traditional let the man come to you role?

00:10:21.840 --> 00:10:23.200
That's a good question.

00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:35.519
I feel like I would prefer to take the more traditional role, but there have been times where I go up to a man, I'm just like, you look really good.

00:10:36.159 --> 00:10:43.360
And I've realized that some men that I'm attracted to aren't the type to go up to a woman because they don't want to offend anyone.

00:10:44.159 --> 00:10:51.279
So if I do want to like start dating a man and I see them in public, I know that I'll probably have to go up to them.

00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:51.840
Yeah.

00:10:52.960 --> 00:10:53.759
What are you looking for?

00:10:53.840 --> 00:10:54.799
Are you looking to get married?

00:10:54.960 --> 00:10:55.840
Do you want children?

00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:57.440
Do you want something serious?

00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:08.480
So right now I I'm mostly focused on having fun, but also getting to know someone that I can eventually be in a serious relationship with.

00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:12.879
And I do want to get married, I'm just not sure when.

00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:18.159
In my head, I have to make sure that I'm completely financially stable.

00:11:18.399 --> 00:11:27.519
You know, I've done a lot of traveling, I've lived my best life, then I can consider marriage and possibly kids.

00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:28.399
You're still young.

00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:29.039
How old are you?

00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:29.679
I'm 28.

00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:30.879
Okay, so you're still young.

00:11:30.960 --> 00:11:31.600
You have plenty of time.

00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:32.000
Yeah.

00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:37.759
When you see yourself as a wife, do you see yourself as a wife to a woman or to a wife as a man?

00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:39.440
Right now to a woman.

00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:40.080
To a woman.

00:11:40.559 --> 00:11:41.039
Yeah.

00:11:41.519 --> 00:11:47.519
So when I was younger, really up until four years ago, I can imagine myself married to a man.

00:11:47.840 --> 00:11:55.919
But then once I started dating women, because that's when I came out, I realized that it might be more of my speed to marry a woman.

00:11:56.399 --> 00:11:59.039
But again, we'll see in like 10 years.

00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:00.399
I'll give myself ten years.

00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:01.759
Do you date older?

00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:02.799
What is your age range?

00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:03.600
Older.

00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:08.080
I would say two years to ten years older than me.

00:12:08.480 --> 00:12:08.799
Okay.

00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:11.440
Um describe your type physically.

00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:13.519
For both men and women.

00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:14.240
For women.

00:12:14.799 --> 00:12:15.360
Women.

00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:23.200
Okay, so I would say if we're talking about height, 5'5 to 5'10.

00:12:23.919 --> 00:12:26.399
I don't like someone who's like way taller than me.

00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:30.159
I feel like my neck is gonna hurt if I'm looking up all the time.

00:12:30.480 --> 00:12:36.399
And then build it's a toss between like curvy or athletic.

00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:39.039
Like I could appreciate both, you know.

00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:41.360
And what about men?

00:12:41.919 --> 00:12:42.240
Men?

00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:43.360
Okay.

00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:56.159
So I know I just said that neck thing, they can't be much taller, but I feel like with men, I would say 5'9 to 6'2 and definitely athletic build.

00:12:56.320 --> 00:12:59.759
I like a basketball way, basketball player type build.

00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:06.879
Like I am open to other things, especially if we connect on other levels, but yeah, basketball player.

00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:08.559
What are your deal breakers?

00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:09.840
Liars.

00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:16.799
That's a bill big deal breaker for me because I was lied to a lot in my previous relationship.

00:13:16.960 --> 00:13:18.320
And I'm a very honest person.

00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:21.919
You ask me a question, I'll just tell you like no restraints.

00:13:22.159 --> 00:13:25.200
So if you lie to me, we're not going to get along.

00:13:25.600 --> 00:13:28.000
And disrespectful people.

00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:32.399
Like if you can disrespect your parents, that's a huge red eye.

00:13:32.720 --> 00:13:33.279
I hate that.

00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:33.600
Right.

00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.679
I've I've broken up with guys because I've seen how they treat their parents, and it's it's hard to watch.

00:13:37.840 --> 00:13:38.320
It's heartbreaking.

00:13:38.399 --> 00:13:45.519
So I broke up with a guy once because he was complaining about taking his mom to church on Easter Sunday, and like church was so early.

00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:51.600
And I was like, it's Easter Sunday, and your mother wants her son to take her to church.

00:13:51.840 --> 00:13:52.159
Yeah.

00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:56.879
Why like I get it if you don't want to go, cool, that's fine, but keep that to yourself.

00:13:57.200 --> 00:14:01.679
You don't need to sit here and complain to me about it for 10 minutes, you know.

00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:02.879
Wow.

00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:05.039
So he didn't like his mom at all.

00:14:05.440 --> 00:14:09.360
I mean, I mean, I he didn't like taking her to church on Easter.

00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:13.440
And it kind of I feel like it's an indicator of how he's gonna treat you in a relationship.

00:14:13.600 --> 00:14:15.039
Is he gonna not want to take you somewhere?

00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:16.799
That's how that's how I saw it.

00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:22.240
It was like I didn't see it as like I don't think he disliked his mom or had a bad relationship with her.

00:14:22.480 --> 00:14:33.600
Because I think he was close with his mom, but just hearing him complain about having to get up early and take her to church, it was like, is this how you talk to your friends about taking me out?

00:14:33.840 --> 00:14:34.159
Right.

00:14:34.480 --> 00:14:35.440
Yeah, it's so true.

00:14:36.080 --> 00:14:37.759
That was more what it was about for me.

00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:39.759
Have you ever walked out mid-date?

00:14:40.799 --> 00:14:42.080
No, I actually haven't.

00:14:42.399 --> 00:14:46.320
Have you had a crazy bad first date that you wanted to walk out?

00:14:46.879 --> 00:14:49.919
I would say no, not crazy bad.

00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:56.639
I have had a couple of dates that I was a little uncomfortable, but I'm overly polite.

00:14:56.960 --> 00:15:06.240
So, like, even if you're making me slightly uncomfortable, as long as the conversation isn't terrible, I'll just sit through it until I find an excuse to leave.

00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:06.720
Yeah.

00:15:07.360 --> 00:15:13.759
So there was one date, and he took me to bikini barista coffee shop.

00:15:14.000 --> 00:15:14.799
And I did?

00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:15.120
Yeah.

00:15:15.519 --> 00:15:16.000
Is that kind of weird?

00:15:16.960 --> 00:15:17.840
They wear bikinis, right?

00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:19.840
Oh yeah, that's exactly what it was.

00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:20.639
Uh-huh.

00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:21.759
So it was weird.

00:15:21.919 --> 00:15:22.960
That was our first date.

00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:30.080
We were previously just texting for a few weeks, and I just went because I was like, you know, do it for the plot.

00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:38.799
And we get there, and he was obviously looking at the barisas and like checking them out.

00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:41.519
And I was just like, okay, that's kind of weird.

00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:43.679
That's just as bad as going to a store club here.

00:15:44.000 --> 00:15:46.960
Because I've gone to I've been to Bikini Beans many times.

00:15:47.200 --> 00:15:52.080
It's the one actually the one that I've been to is like it's a drive-thru situation.

00:15:52.159 --> 00:15:53.759
It's kind of like a Dutch Bros.

00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:54.320
Yeah.

00:15:54.639 --> 00:16:14.159
But it's so it's it's not conducive to sitting down at a table and having a nice, relaxing coffee, like if you go to like the Henry for coffee, or if you go somewhere that's or somewhere like Lux, where it's like it's a cafe where you can sit at a table and have a coffee and a nice cup.

00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:15.279
You know what I mean?

00:16:15.519 --> 00:16:16.320
It's like a drive-thru.

00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:19.200
I wonder if he was trying to be funny and wanted to see a reaction.

00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:21.679
Like, I don't think so.

00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:26.720
I think he like actually thought about this and chose this place for the first date.

00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:28.399
Unbelievable.

00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:30.000
Because he had a great time.

00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:38.720
At the end, at the end, he was like, Oh my gosh, I want you to come to this party to meet my friends that same day.

00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:43.519
And I was like, No, I'm super busy with family stuff.

00:16:44.159 --> 00:16:46.480
It gives like frat, bro.

00:16:46.799 --> 00:16:47.120
Yeah.

00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:52.559
It's kind of like, let's go to bikini bean coffee and then go to a party.

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:53.360
Yeah, exactly.

00:16:53.759 --> 00:16:54.320
That party.

00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:55.759
Very young and immature.

00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:56.159
Yeah.

00:16:56.320 --> 00:16:56.559
Yeah.

00:16:57.200 --> 00:16:58.639
So have you been cheated on?

00:16:58.720 --> 00:16:59.519
You said you had, right?

00:16:59.679 --> 00:16:59.919
Yes.

00:17:00.000 --> 00:17:01.360
How did you find out?

00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:08.799
So I found out because I waited to find out her phone code.

00:17:09.039 --> 00:17:11.599
So she would never give me her phone code.

00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:12.960
That's red flag right there.

00:17:13.119 --> 00:17:14.799
Yeah, another red flag.

00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:19.920
It's I was aware, I don't know why I ignored it, but she would never give me her phone code.

00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:29.839
And then one weekend right before her birthday, we're all really drunk, and my friend was trying to change some music on her phone, and she was like, Oh, I can't get in.

00:17:30.000 --> 00:17:30.799
What's your code?

00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:35.759
And she told her the code, and I overheard it, and I just kept that in my head.

00:17:36.079 --> 00:17:40.559
I was just gonna ask, like, how do you add do you guys at like do you ask?

00:17:40.799 --> 00:17:42.000
What's your phone code?

00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:46.079
Or ooh, because like I feel awkward.

00:17:46.240 --> 00:17:47.759
It is asking someone.

00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:49.839
Like, I feel like it's kind of personal.

00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:51.920
So, how do you ask someone you're dating?

00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:54.880
Like that, like, hey, I want to put some music on, what's your phone code?

00:17:54.960 --> 00:17:58.720
And if they get all weird about it and don't want to tell you, I feel like that's a red flag.

00:17:59.200 --> 00:18:00.880
Actually, yeah, that's a great idea.

00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:03.759
So, okay, so you put some, so you heard the code.

00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:08.720
So I heard the code, and then I waited until she went to sleep later.

00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:14.960
And I just grabbed her phone, which she always used to sleep with her phone under her pillow.

00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:18.240
Yeah, another red flag for sure.

00:18:19.039 --> 00:18:22.319
But I waited until she was like completely knocked out.

00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:31.839
I grab her phone, go to the other room, unlock it, and man, the text messages from so many different women.

00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:35.359
There was a reason she was hiding her phone under her pillow.

00:18:35.680 --> 00:18:37.920
Yeah, she was getting nudes and everything.

00:18:38.079 --> 00:18:39.920
She was sweet talking, these women.

00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:40.880
She is a charmer.

00:18:41.119 --> 00:18:41.279
Wow.

00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:42.319
Like that's another clash.

00:18:42.880 --> 00:18:44.799
How did you approach her about this?

00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:46.640
I actually didn't.

00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:51.039
I put her phone back under her pillow and I disappeared for two weeks.

00:18:51.359 --> 00:18:58.640
Not a healthy way to do it, but I didn't know how to address that because it was a lot.

00:18:58.799 --> 00:19:01.200
And it was even like people that she introduced me to.

00:19:01.279 --> 00:19:01.839
That's her friend.

00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:03.039
That's messed up.

00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:05.599
So yeah, I had to disappear.

00:19:05.759 --> 00:19:07.039
I was at my friends.

00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:12.160
I went back to my place and she was looking for me and messaging me on social media.

00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:19.279
I know that she's probably the type of person who would have then in turn got mad at you for invading her privacy and going through the phone.

00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:20.960
How dare you go through my phone?

00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:21.759
Exactly.

00:19:21.920 --> 00:19:22.160
Yeah.

00:19:22.480 --> 00:19:23.039
Gaslighter.

00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:23.440
Yes.

00:19:24.240 --> 00:19:25.119
So did you end it?

00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:27.279
Like, did you finally tell her what you saw?

00:19:27.519 --> 00:19:28.000
I did.

00:19:28.240 --> 00:19:35.519
So after the couple weeks, I responded to one of her messages and let her know what was going on and that we were over.

00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:43.200
And she did ask to see me a week later and explain everything, and I let her.

00:19:43.599 --> 00:19:47.200
We became friends for six months and then started dating again.

00:19:48.160 --> 00:19:48.480
Yeah.

00:19:49.119 --> 00:19:51.039
And how did it work out the second time?

00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:57.920
She didn't cheat as far as I knew, but very disrespectful.

00:19:58.079 --> 00:19:59.759
And then I caught her in a lot.

00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:04.880
Of really stupid lies, so I can never recover from like not trusting her.

00:20:05.119 --> 00:20:07.200
But did she give you her phone code the second time around?

00:20:07.359 --> 00:20:09.119
Yes, I'd access all of her phone.

00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:09.839
Of course.

00:20:09.920 --> 00:20:12.480
And I'm sure she cleaned it all up very nicely.

00:20:12.720 --> 00:20:14.160
Yes, exactly.

00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:20.960
And then even her work phone, she had an Android to where you would have to use a fingerprint.

00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:23.440
And she put my fingerprint as one of them.

00:20:23.680 --> 00:20:25.599
So I was able to access it whenever.

00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:27.279
So that was nice.

00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:30.319
But I also caught something in her work phone at some point.

00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:31.839
But not cheating.

00:20:32.079 --> 00:20:34.160
She was just talking to one of the girls.

00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:37.759
She cheated on me previously about being in the hospital.

00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:53.119
So I feel like sometimes when you catch a partner doing something and you confront them about it, work through it, and then give them another chance, it it just gives them ways to hide it better the next time.

00:20:54.000 --> 00:20:54.640
You know what I mean?

00:20:54.799 --> 00:21:07.039
Like if they haven't actually changed or if they haven't actually done better or doing better, I feel like it just gives them it just basically teaches them, it teaches them how to hide it better from you for the next time.

00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:12.000
Sometimes they think, oh, I did it once, I got away with it, she forgave me.

00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:15.759
So then they think they can do it again, especially if they're more sneaky about it.

00:21:16.079 --> 00:21:16.240
Yeah.

00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:16.559
Yes.

00:21:16.799 --> 00:21:17.200
I don't know.

00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:20.400
And that's what was in the back of my mind the whole time.

00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:24.079
The rest of our relationship, I'm just like, she's highly intelligent.

00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:25.039
She was an engineer.

00:21:25.200 --> 00:21:31.599
So I'm like, she is definitely capable of realizing her mistakes and you know, hiding it better.

00:21:31.920 --> 00:21:32.079
Yeah.

00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:32.400
Yeah.

00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:32.799
Yeah.

00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:43.039
We were talking about that in another episode about dating women, women dating women, and how women tend to be a little bit more maybe like sneaky and manipulative.

00:21:43.200 --> 00:21:44.799
They're smarter when how they do things.

00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:47.519
Yeah, manipulative and they plot probably.

00:21:47.920 --> 00:21:52.319
Like, don't they say women cheat more than men, but they're just smarter about it, so they don't get caught as much.

00:21:52.640 --> 00:21:53.279
I've heard that.

00:21:53.599 --> 00:21:55.920
Yeah, and I know that is for sure, though.

00:21:56.480 --> 00:21:57.440
Oh my god.

00:21:58.400 --> 00:21:59.200
Are you ready for it?

00:21:59.359 --> 00:22:00.000
I'm ready for it.

00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.119
The keep more minute brought to you by Tactical Tax Strategies.

00:22:03.200 --> 00:22:04.640
They help you keep more in your wallet.

00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:06.960
We help you keep more in your relationship.

00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:09.519
So we have a question today.

00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:10.240
Okay.

00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:18.400
Um, so this one says my partner's mom still books all of his doctor's appointments.

00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:22.000
I feel like this is a deal breaker.

00:22:22.319 --> 00:22:24.960
He says it's just being efficient.

00:22:25.519 --> 00:22:27.039
Wait, his mom still books his appointment?

00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:30.240
His mom books his doctor's appointment, but she doesn't say how old they are.

00:22:30.799 --> 00:22:31.920
I think that's a red flag.

00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:33.759
But I think it doesn't matter how old you are.

00:22:35.119 --> 00:22:39.119
If you're an adult and you can't book your own doctor's appointments, what else can't you do?

00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:40.559
She's still doing his laundry.

00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:41.519
It makes you question, right?

00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:41.759
Yeah.

00:22:42.400 --> 00:22:46.240
She's still cooking him meals and like prepping them for him and you know probably.

00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:47.200
I don't know.

00:22:47.359 --> 00:22:47.680
Yeah.

00:22:47.920 --> 00:22:54.880
Yeah, that would be a not necessarily a deal breaker for me, but it would be a conversation that would need to be had.

00:22:55.119 --> 00:22:59.519
Like, I think it's time to take your health care into your own hands.

00:22:59.759 --> 00:23:05.039
I mean, if it's an assistant, you know, at work or something, or my secretary, but my mom, I don't know.

00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:05.519
Yeah.

00:23:05.599 --> 00:23:05.759
Yeah.

00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:07.759
It would make me question a lot of things.

00:23:08.160 --> 00:23:08.720
It would.

00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:11.839
It's a little too sounds a little too codependent.

00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:12.559
Yeah, exactly.

00:23:12.720 --> 00:23:17.039
And like they might put their mom over you, and then also they might need you to mother them.

00:23:17.359 --> 00:23:17.759
Oh gosh.

00:23:19.039 --> 00:23:19.680
Hell nice.

00:23:20.079 --> 00:23:20.720
Good point.

00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:23.279
So now we're gonna talk about the new dating trend.

00:23:23.359 --> 00:23:24.000
Have you heard of this?

00:23:24.079 --> 00:23:24.640
I know you have.

00:23:24.720 --> 00:23:26.960
It's based on the Dom Sub Fetish.

00:23:27.359 --> 00:23:34.000
It's a pay pig, aka a financial sub or fin sub, and a finum, a financial Dom.

00:23:34.160 --> 00:23:34.799
Have you heard of this?

00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:35.599
I have, yes.

00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:45.599
So a pay pig or fin sub is a person who gets sexual or psychological gratification from giving money and gifts to another person known as a findum, financial dominatrix.

00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:50.960
This arrangement is a form of financial domination, a fetist-based relationship that typically occurs online.

00:23:51.519 --> 00:23:55.039
So key characteristics it's a dom-sub dynamic.

00:23:55.200 --> 00:24:02.000
The relationship follows a dom sub power structure where the pay pig is a submissive one who serves the dominant partner financially.

00:24:02.319 --> 00:24:05.680
So you don't you know someone that does this or has done it?

00:24:06.160 --> 00:24:06.480
No.

00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:06.960
No?

00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:07.440
Uh-uh.

00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:12.000
So motivation, the pay pig finds satisfaction in being financially exploited.

00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:19.920
The thrill often comes from being controlled and verbally degraded by the dominant partner rather than from a traditional quid pro quo exchange.

00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:26.240
Like I've seen TikToks where they address their PayPig and they're like, you owe me this and you owe me that, and here are the receipts.

00:24:26.319 --> 00:24:31.599
Pay up, you loser, pay up, you scumbag, pay me at this link, and then that's what I've seen TikToks too.

00:24:31.759 --> 00:24:32.960
You're like, you know what it is.

00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:36.400
Don't you have a friend that like, no, I've seen TikTok video of Cindy.

00:24:36.960 --> 00:24:39.039
She's like, you're one friend.

00:24:39.920 --> 00:24:40.240
No.

00:24:40.559 --> 00:24:41.759
So it's not online.

00:24:42.319 --> 00:24:45.599
It's a digital environment, so they don't even meet in person.

00:24:45.839 --> 00:24:55.200
So it's like, what a good situation for the one who's receiving the money and gets to spend and abuse his account.

00:24:55.440 --> 00:25:01.200
Like these submissives want you to just abuse their bank account and spend the money and like throw it in their face.

00:25:01.599 --> 00:25:03.039
What a great situation to be in.

00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:03.839
I know.

00:25:04.000 --> 00:25:05.759
Like, how where do I sign up?

00:25:06.720 --> 00:25:07.039
Literally.

00:25:07.279 --> 00:25:08.240
What can I apply?

00:25:09.039 --> 00:25:12.240
The first time I ever heard of that, I was like, I would be great at that.

00:25:12.319 --> 00:25:12.480
Yeah.

00:25:12.640 --> 00:25:16.240
Like they don't even have to have sex, they don't even have to meet the person.

00:25:16.400 --> 00:25:16.559
Yeah.

00:25:16.880 --> 00:25:18.000
Do they have to see them?

00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:24.160
Like, does the does the sub have to be attracted to the person?00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:26.079


Because it's all via video, yeah.00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:26.720


Okay.00:25:27.039 --> 00:25:28.079


So level of control.00:25:28.160 --> 00:25:29.599


The level of control can vary.00:25:29.759 --> 00:25:35.440


Some pay pigs send small regular payments, while others grant the dominant figure complete control over their finances.00:25:35.599 --> 00:25:41.680


The dynamic can be a simple form of financial gifting or a complex arrangement that funds the dominant's entire lifestyle.00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:43.119


It's crazy.00:25:43.680 --> 00:25:52.160


Some people in the findem scene describe a feeling of sexual compulsivity akin to gambling, where the thrill of giving money provides a dopamine rush.00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:54.960


I think if okay.00:25:55.279 --> 00:26:08.480


If I met someone and they told me that that's what they were into, I don't think I could date someone that was into that kind of that had that fetish.00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:09.039


Yeah.00:26:09.200 --> 00:26:09.359


Yeah.00:26:10.000 --> 00:26:11.039


Like they're giving their money away.00:26:11.680 --> 00:26:12.960


So financially irresponsible.00:26:15.119 --> 00:26:16.160


What a waste of money.00:26:16.559 --> 00:26:17.920


Literally for no reason.00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:20.480


They're not getting anything back except for being degraded.00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:21.680


That's what I'm saying.00:26:21.839 --> 00:26:22.880


There's no reason.00:26:23.039 --> 00:26:26.160


Like you're literally just throwing your money to this person.00:26:26.880 --> 00:26:27.039


Yeah.00:26:27.279 --> 00:26:28.640


It seems so irresponsible.00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:29.680


So irresponsible.00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:33.759


I mean, unless you're like a multi-billionaire like Elon Musk, who's gonna be the first trillionaire.00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:34.000


Yeah.00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:35.759


He has probably so much money he can do that.00:26:35.839 --> 00:26:37.519


But other than that, like, what a waste of money.00:26:37.839 --> 00:26:38.559


Yeah, very true.00:26:38.720 --> 00:26:40.640


And it's like, why isn't it going towards me?00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:43.359


Like, why would I date you if you're not throwing your money towards me?00:26:43.839 --> 00:26:44.640


It's some stranger on the internet.00:26:44.960 --> 00:26:45.119


I know.00:26:45.839 --> 00:26:50.079


And I know everybody has their hobbies and their things that they spend money on.00:26:50.160 --> 00:26:50.319


Yeah.00:26:50.480 --> 00:26:54.640


But typically it's in ex like you said, it's in exchange for something else, right?00:26:54.799 --> 00:26:58.559


So it's like on clothes or even on sex.00:26:58.640 --> 00:27:00.319


Like at least, you know, getting off.00:27:00.960 --> 00:27:01.200


Yeah.00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:05.759


Even gambling, you're gambling, but you there's a chance you could win a bunch back.00:27:05.920 --> 00:27:08.240


So I can see that, you know, the appeal to that.00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:11.039


But really, what are you getting back from from this?00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:13.359


Just someone yelling at you and literally.00:27:13.680 --> 00:27:14.960


But they get aroused, I guess.00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:16.000


They get themselves on.00:27:16.240 --> 00:27:17.440


Different horses, different feelings.00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:20.799


I feel like there's a lot, there's like cheaper ways to masturbate.00:27:20.880 --> 00:27:21.200


Obviously.00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:22.160


It definitely is.00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:24.240


And I mean, they can be degraded for free.00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:26.160


Just irritate a woman out in the bar.00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:26.480


Really?00:27:28.960 --> 00:27:32.880


Walk up somebody, walk up to some woman pumping her gas and ask her about her day.00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:35.279


Like she will be irritated with you.00:27:35.519 --> 00:27:36.480


It could be so simple.00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:40.799


Where is your favorite place to go on a first date?00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:43.599


So I wouldn't say I have a favorite place.00:27:43.759 --> 00:27:46.480


I actually like to do activities on the first date.00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:52.880


Um, that would include maybe a good hike or going to an event.00:27:53.119 --> 00:27:56.720


So I yeah, I can't even have an answer for you.00:27:56.799 --> 00:27:56.960


Yeah.00:27:57.200 --> 00:27:59.200


And I typically don't plan the first date.00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:00.640


I let the other person plan it.00:28:00.880 --> 00:28:02.640


Do you like to be the sub in the relationship?00:28:02.799 --> 00:28:07.839


Do you like your partner to take control to plan things to be take control in the bedroom?00:28:08.559 --> 00:28:09.680


Yes and no.00:28:10.000 --> 00:28:11.759


I like to call myself a switch.00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:15.519


So I can do whatever the other partner doesn't feel like doing.00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:19.359


So if they feel like not being as dominant, I can be dominant.00:28:20.079 --> 00:28:28.799


But 70, 60 to 70% of the time, I do prefer for them to plan more things and take more control if they're comfortable with it.00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:33.440


Now it's time for the celebrity cut where we marinate in the juices of the celebrities.00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:35.279


Did you guys see that Kathy Griffin?00:28:35.359 --> 00:28:36.559


You know Kathy Griffin, right?00:28:36.720 --> 00:28:38.240


She is on four dating apps.00:28:38.400 --> 00:28:41.759


She's on like all the dating apps and is like having a hard time finding someone.00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:43.200


She's having a hard time.00:28:43.440 --> 00:28:43.599


Yeah.00:28:44.720 --> 00:28:50.079


So she was married, and I guess they got divorced because she was saying how he completely changed.00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:59.279


When she met him, he was outgoing and social and fun and vivacious, and he just turned into this homebody that kind of never wanted to leave the house and turned very antisocial.00:28:59.359 --> 00:29:00.559


And she's like, that's not me.00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:03.759


So now she got divorced and now she's out trying to find love again.00:29:03.839 --> 00:29:05.359


And I guess she's on four dating up.00:29:05.599 --> 00:29:08.079


But can you imagine you're scrolling and you see how intimidating?00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:10.559


Well, you would think it was a fake account.00:29:10.799 --> 00:29:11.039


You would.00:29:12.319 --> 00:29:14.240


Like you wouldn't, you'd have to.00:29:14.480 --> 00:29:21.039


What would you say or ask to get it to be like, prove to me that you're the real Kathy Griffin?00:29:21.599 --> 00:29:24.319


Take a picture holding a banana with like a finger on me.00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:27.200


And then post on your story that you didn't, so pretty sure.00:29:28.079 --> 00:29:30.960


It is true, because I bet there aren't so many fake accounts, you know?00:29:31.759 --> 00:29:37.200


Unless do do I'm sure Raya does, but do some dating apps have like the verified sign?00:29:37.519 --> 00:29:37.920


They do.00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:39.440


I know Bumble has it.00:29:39.599 --> 00:29:39.839


Okay.00:29:40.079 --> 00:29:41.440


I think Hinge has it as well.00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:46.559


But I've seen, so in that are we dating the same guy group?00:29:46.799 --> 00:29:51.039


They've posted, I've seen a couple posts there where it's scammers.00:29:51.599 --> 00:30:01.119


Um so basically what they do is they set up their dating profile and they take a picture of themselves to get verified.00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:06.799


And then they delete the picture of themselves and put on pictures of someone else to catfish.00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:08.079


I don't know, you can do that.00:30:08.319 --> 00:30:08.640


Yeah.00:30:08.880 --> 00:30:17.920


But the thing is, is so the reason why a couple guys have been posted in this group is because they forgot to delete the actual photo of themselves.00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:20.319


Dumb on the idiot.00:30:20.880 --> 00:30:21.680


Yes, yeah.00:30:21.920 --> 00:30:28.400


So they'll have like three or four photos of the person that they're catfishing, like the person that they're using.00:30:28.559 --> 00:30:35.359


And then it's like this random selfie from like the bottom up of a completely different person.00:30:35.519 --> 00:30:36.799


Like completely different person.00:30:36.960 --> 00:30:37.599


Oh, I love that.00:30:37.759 --> 00:30:39.759


So they so much.00:30:40.319 --> 00:30:45.519


So even though it's verified, there's still ways to tell me you're a catfish about telling me you're a catfish.00:30:46.799 --> 00:30:48.000


Like, did they even really try?00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:49.440


There's right, exactly.00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:52.480


But there's ways to get around the verified thing.00:30:52.640 --> 00:30:56.160


So you could totally be catfishing as a celebrity if you want to.00:30:56.559 --> 00:30:58.880


Honestly, I just I forgot that people catfish.00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:03.119


No, I've been called a catfish before.00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:13.599


Like they thought I was a catfish, like over text, and they said it's because I used to put like my Instagram photos on there, and they're like more professional looking.00:31:14.079 --> 00:31:15.759


I guess you're not supposed to do that.00:31:15.839 --> 00:31:16.400


I don't know.00:31:16.720 --> 00:31:17.920


You are very beautiful though.00:31:18.079 --> 00:31:21.759


Like I can see how people would think you are a catfish because you're so naturally stunning.00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:22.960


Thank you.00:31:24.480 --> 00:31:28.319


So now it's time to get to know you with Zoyo, sponsored by Zoya, your neighborhood yogurt.00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:29.680


Rapid fire questions.00:31:29.839 --> 00:31:29.920


Okay.00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:32.640


Best or worst pickup line you've heard or you've used?00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:36.880


Worst pickup line is oh, you're too hot to be gay.00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:37.680


Really?00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:38.319


Yeah.00:31:38.559 --> 00:31:38.799


Wow.00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:40.000


I'm like, that's okay.00:31:42.160 --> 00:31:42.559


Anything else?00:31:43.599 --> 00:31:45.200


You could have stopped at you're too hot.00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:45.680


That's it.00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:46.000


Yeah.00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:46.720


Ugh.00:31:47.119 --> 00:31:48.799


Favorite body part on a partner.00:31:49.759 --> 00:31:50.240


Hands.00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:50.880


Hands.00:31:51.119 --> 00:31:52.400


What gives you the ick?00:31:53.039 --> 00:31:54.240


See uh oh.00:31:54.480 --> 00:31:55.920


Unnecessary insecurities.00:31:56.480 --> 00:31:58.240


Is watching porn considered cheating?00:31:58.640 --> 00:31:58.880


No.00:31:59.839 --> 00:32:03.759


Before you're intimate, is it appropriate to ask your date how many people they've been with?00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:04.799


Yes.00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:07.279


Is it acceptable to have sex on a first date?00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:08.079


Yes.00:32:08.640 --> 00:32:11.440


Should you disclose mental health issues early on in a relationship?00:32:12.000 --> 00:32:12.640


Please, yes.00:32:13.279 --> 00:32:16.799


And do you have a crazy talent or unique fact about yourself that not many people know?00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:21.119


I don't know if this is a unique fact, but I used to dance for Alice Cooper.00:32:21.519 --> 00:32:22.720


You do! Oh that's right!00:32:23.359 --> 00:32:25.279


So how on tour with him?00:32:25.359 --> 00:32:30.079


Like in No, so I would dance with um what was it?00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:31.920


The the Rock Company.00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:33.519


So he has this place out here.00:32:33.920 --> 00:32:34.400


The school of rock.00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:35.519


Yeah, the school of rock.00:32:35.759 --> 00:32:45.599


And then if you dance there for a while and he feels that you would be great at any of his performances like Christmas Pudding, you can join his what do you call it?00:32:45.839 --> 00:32:46.400


Dance company?00:32:46.720 --> 00:32:47.119


There you go.00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:51.839


You can join his dance company and you can perform at like different business events.00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:54.640


I performed at Christmas Pudding three years in a row.00:32:54.880 --> 00:32:55.039


What?00:32:55.279 --> 00:32:57.119


That's this close to Johnny Depp.00:32:57.839 --> 00:32:58.799


What this close?00:32:58.960 --> 00:33:00.400


I can only look at him from a distance.00:33:00.720 --> 00:33:01.359


I'm jealous.00:33:01.440 --> 00:33:02.240


I love Johnny Depp.00:33:02.559 --> 00:33:04.960


Did a lot of fun things really fact.00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:08.720


And last but not least, what is your favorite sexual position and why?00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:10.559


I don't know what it's called.00:33:10.640 --> 00:33:12.160


So I'll just try to describe it.00:33:12.400 --> 00:33:21.359


So when they're at the edge of the bed, and then sorry, Mike, and then I sit on them and I'm like bouncing and my feet are towards the edge.00:33:21.440 --> 00:33:22.160


Does that make sense?00:33:22.400 --> 00:33:23.119


Towards them.00:33:23.359 --> 00:33:23.839


Yeah.00:33:25.599 --> 00:33:26.000


Sitting.00:33:26.240 --> 00:33:26.480


Okay.00:33:26.799 --> 00:33:28.000


So you're facing each other.00:33:28.319 --> 00:33:29.200


Yeah on the edge of the bed.00:33:29.440 --> 00:33:30.400


But they're on the edge of the bed.00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:31.519


So I'm on top of them.00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:32.079


Okay.00:33:32.799 --> 00:33:35.440


Okay, so it's like couch cowgirl, except on the bed.00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:36.000


Exactly.00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:36.480


Okay.00:33:36.559 --> 00:33:36.720


Yeah.00:33:36.960 --> 00:33:37.119


Okay.00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:37.839


That makes sense.00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:38.240


All right.00:33:38.319 --> 00:33:39.039


That makes sense.00:33:39.359 --> 00:33:41.039


Speaking of sexual positions.00:33:41.279 --> 00:33:41.680


Oh, yes.00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:43.359


You've got some fun goodies.00:33:43.599 --> 00:33:44.000


Oh, yes.00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:44.799


I want to see.00:33:48.799 --> 00:33:48.880


Okay.00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:53.920


You never know what you're going to get with Castle.00:33:54.559 --> 00:33:56.559


What they sent you and what you thought about it.00:33:56.880 --> 00:33:57.200


Okay.00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:05.759


So we'll start with this Divine Nectar's Kissable Passion Gel.00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:10.719


So I first started by smelling it and it smells so good.00:34:10.880 --> 00:34:11.840


It's so fruity.00:34:12.159 --> 00:34:14.880


And I took a little taste of it just to see.00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:20.320


It's really like the it sounds crazy, but it's the best thing I've ever tasted when it comes to Louvre.00:34:20.559 --> 00:34:20.800


Really?00:34:20.960 --> 00:34:21.199


Yeah.00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:21.920


Oh wow.00:34:22.159 --> 00:34:25.519


It doesn't taste like really artificial at all, if that makes sense.00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:28.320


Like it tastes like an actual candy.00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:29.280


Oh yeah.00:34:29.760 --> 00:34:35.599


And that sucks if you don't have a partner that you're you're like, oh man, I wish I could use this to do that.00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:41.599


So I not that we asked, but I do have someone I could try it with by just having it.00:34:42.639 --> 00:34:44.639


And then the next one, the oil of love.00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:47.119


I didn't try it, but it does smell really good.00:34:47.199 --> 00:34:48.000


It's very tropical.00:34:48.239 --> 00:34:48.480


What is it?00:34:48.639 --> 00:34:50.320


What is that for to be used for?00:34:50.639 --> 00:34:53.039


So it's for massages and body oil.00:34:53.440 --> 00:34:58.559


Says you can use it to like put it on someone, kiss it, lick it, things like that.00:35:00.239 --> 00:35:06.159


And then we have oh, the easy cuffs.00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:08.880


I try these on myself.00:35:09.119 --> 00:35:12.639


I did a little pull and I absolutely love it.00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:13.920


It doesn't hurt at all.00:35:14.000 --> 00:35:19.360


And it's like made out of silicone, and you don't have to clip it, you just slide it on.00:35:19.840 --> 00:35:20.239


Nice.00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:23.440


So do you want me to take it out and show it a little more?00:35:23.760 --> 00:35:24.159


Yeah.00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:32.320


If you were using them with a partner, would you prefer to be the one getting cuffed, or would you want to cuff your partner?00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:37.599


So I recently realized that maybe I am a little more submissive than I expect.00:35:37.760 --> 00:35:39.039


I would want to be cuffed.00:35:39.199 --> 00:35:39.360


Okay.00:35:39.679 --> 00:35:42.320


Especially with these, because honestly, you just slide them on.00:35:42.559 --> 00:35:43.679


Oh wow, they go on easily.00:35:44.079 --> 00:35:44.320


Yeah.00:35:44.639 --> 00:35:46.559


And they don't come off easily.00:35:46.800 --> 00:35:49.920


So you have to like actually make an effort, but it doesn't hurt.00:35:50.079 --> 00:35:51.360


It's very how cool.00:35:51.519 --> 00:35:52.079


What a cool concept.00:35:52.239 --> 00:35:53.360


I've never seen those before.00:35:53.679 --> 00:35:53.840


Yeah.00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:57.599


And they're and they're small, they won't go off in the metal detector.00:35:57.760 --> 00:35:59.840


You could travel with it.00:36:00.000 --> 00:36:02.639


They don't make that noise from the thing, like the jangling noise.00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:03.119


Yeah.00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:05.360


If I had someone in Chicago, I would take it with me.00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:05.920


Uh-huh.00:36:06.000 --> 00:36:06.800


There you go.00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:13.679


And then last was the Lay Tongue Collection, powerful vibrating, licking tongues.00:36:14.000 --> 00:36:14.320


Whoa.00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:16.239


How is that?00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:19.760


When I got this, I was like, oh, is it because I like women?00:36:20.159 --> 00:36:23.760


I mean, I know we all like it, but I loved it.00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:37.119


I didn't actually try it, but I did feel the vibrations, and it's just powerful enough to get you there, but not too harsh, which I feel I've had a lot of problems with toys being too much in the past.00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:38.800


But yeah, I love it.00:36:39.119 --> 00:36:41.199


It looks, it looks kind of like the rose, Lynn.00:36:41.599 --> 00:36:42.239


I think it does.00:36:42.559 --> 00:36:45.599


I was like, is that the rose, the famous rose that everyone speaks about?00:36:46.000 --> 00:36:53.039


Yeah, I've never tried the rose, but I feel like this is probably better because I've heard the rose is overly intense.00:36:53.199 --> 00:36:55.920


And I'm just like, I heard it can like blow you across the rose.00:36:56.239 --> 00:36:56.880


Exactly.00:36:57.119 --> 00:36:58.639


In like five seconds.00:37:00.079 --> 00:37:02.159


Made you think you need to try it, right?00:37:03.039 --> 00:37:03.840


It's like what?00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:05.119


A different dimension.00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:06.639


Like, let's do it.00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:10.400


But yeah, I love all of these.00:37:10.480 --> 00:37:11.760


So thank you, the castle.00:37:12.000 --> 00:37:12.639


So amazing.00:37:12.800 --> 00:37:13.840
