00:00:01.300 --> 00:00:03.927
Oh my god, I just totally got catfished.
00:00:03.927 --> 00:00:05.953
He looks absolutely nothing like his picture.
00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:11.070
So I found out, the guy that I've been dating is married with kids.
00:00:11.070 --> 00:00:13.214
His wife just reached out to me.
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:16.564
Welcome to the Meat Market.
00:00:16.564 --> 00:00:19.672
The single scene is a slaughterhouse and we are here to devour it.
00:00:19.672 --> 00:00:20.521
We are your hosts.
00:00:20.521 --> 00:00:23.751
I'm Lindsay, I'm Jess and today's sizzling single is Emily.
00:00:23.751 --> 00:00:25.400
Welcome your hosts.
00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:27.205
I'm Lindsay, I'm Jess and today's sizzling single is Emily welcome, we have a.
00:00:27.205 --> 00:00:28.530
Scottsdale girl in the house.
00:00:28.530 --> 00:00:31.036
So is dating in Scottsdale as bad as they say it is?
00:00:31.498 --> 00:00:36.128
it's definitely different than like dating, because I was in Chandler.
00:00:36.128 --> 00:00:39.384
But I would say the Scottsdale men are definitely.
00:00:39.384 --> 00:00:50.029
They either want to get married right away or they are never leaving the bachelor life ever and I've met like 60 year olds got still men and they're like I'm still not ready to settle down.
00:00:50.109 --> 00:01:10.965
I'm like, okay, well, you should be right the two long-term relationships that I've had since I moved here in 2012, they were both from here, not necessarily born and raised, but from young childhood into adulthood and I was always convinced like it's a problem with Arizona.
00:01:10.965 --> 00:01:13.736
Men like Arizona men are just awful.
00:01:13.736 --> 00:01:19.730
And then I read a comment recently that it was like men who are born and raised in Arizona.
00:01:19.730 --> 00:01:22.506
That's a red flag in and of itself, do you agree?
00:01:23.549 --> 00:01:24.655
From my dating experience.
00:01:24.655 --> 00:01:31.691
I'm from Arizona, so I only know Arizona men and yeah, I would say they are and it's.
00:01:31.691 --> 00:01:34.605
I am like I'm kind of a problem too and like I'm.
00:01:34.605 --> 00:01:41.989
But I'm aware of it because, like all the nice guys, I'm like no, and then the guy that's like really doesn't want me.
00:01:41.989 --> 00:01:43.673
I'm like that's the one.
00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:53.447
He's the one for me, so you're one of the ones that you always want what you can't have kind of thing a hundred percent, and that's probably like the only child in me, because I'm like I get everything I want.
00:01:53.447 --> 00:01:54.471
Why can't I have you too?
00:01:55.882 --> 00:01:56.865
is there a change?
00:01:56.865 --> 00:01:57.507
Do you notice?
00:01:57.507 --> 00:02:02.140
Because do you did you know great guys when you were younger.
00:02:02.140 --> 00:02:05.606
At what point do they change into these?
00:02:06.067 --> 00:02:10.986
just awful the thing is is, I don't even think that they realize that they're awful.
00:02:10.986 --> 00:02:21.389
I think that because when you see them with their friends or like interacting with their family, they're great, and then the minute a woman's involved, they are like evil and I'm like what is wrong?
00:02:21.389 --> 00:02:22.270
What's happening?
00:02:22.270 --> 00:02:22.471
I?
00:02:22.491 --> 00:02:30.042
think it's because there are so many beautiful women in Scottsdale and they're so easily available, what with social media and you know TikTok and all that.
00:02:30.042 --> 00:02:34.412
Probably so they you know why settle down and why be nice when you can.
00:02:34.412 --> 00:02:35.824
Just I don't know.
00:02:35.864 --> 00:02:40.960
Yeah, I will say Scottsdale is a whole different breed and I didn't realize it.
00:02:40.960 --> 00:02:44.324
I moved to Old Town two years ago and I grew up in Chandler, where I'm like.
00:02:44.324 --> 00:02:46.086
Scottsdale's not that different.
00:02:46.086 --> 00:02:47.489
It's 15 minutes away.
00:02:47.930 --> 00:02:57.540
Oh, it's different really yeah going like if you go out in downtown Chandler, it's chill, it's relaxed, it's going out in Old Town because I have a friend.
00:02:57.540 --> 00:03:05.406
So let's say, we go to like Kala, which is a restaurant, and like at the bottom of a hotel, and then there's this new place, shiv, that's down the street.
00:03:05.406 --> 00:03:10.842
We went to shiv after kala and I told her oh yeah, we just came from college like no one goes to kala anymore.
00:03:10.842 --> 00:03:12.024
What?
00:03:12.024 --> 00:03:17.734
Okay, really, really it's five steps away, you know.
00:03:17.734 --> 00:03:26.508
So it's just like that, like everything is almost like a status thing and I'm like this is exhausting for someone like me that is exhausting, doesn't care.
00:03:26.781 --> 00:03:31.020
Can you tell the difference between, like like you said, men from Scottsdale or someone from the Midwest?
00:03:31.342 --> 00:03:35.471
I hear the Midwest guys are the Midwest guys are so so, so nice.
00:03:35.471 --> 00:03:38.909
I went on a date with I actually went on two dates with one from the Midwest.
00:03:38.909 --> 00:03:44.228
He was from Nebraska and he was the nicest man that I have been on a date with since moving to Scottsdale.
00:03:44.508 --> 00:03:45.532
Is that why there was no third date?
00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:46.685
That's why there was no third date.
00:03:46.685 --> 00:03:58.703
I was just like you might just be too nice for me, but he was like such a gentleman opened the car door, Like he even like, made it a point to stand on the side closer to the road, and like you just don't see that anymore.
00:03:58.703 --> 00:04:10.423
Like the last guy I really liked, I remember I sat in the car waiting for him to open the car door and he, we were just at the gas station and he was already inside of the gas station and I was like just sitting in the car, I was like homie really doesn't get it.
00:04:12.610 --> 00:04:15.159
Yeah, no, so like that kind of stuff is just like out the window.
00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:19.791
But the Midwest guys are so nice and you can tell immediately.
00:04:20.379 --> 00:04:22.023
So nice guys kind of do finish last day they.
00:04:22.023 --> 00:04:23.386
So nice guys kind of do finish last day they do you know what?
00:04:23.406 --> 00:04:31.583
Give Nebraska guy like another year to get acclimated to the Scottsdale scene and then he'll probably be just right for you.
00:04:31.603 --> 00:04:37.293
The hard part is I am so not into Scottsdale guys, because they're so into like how they look and how like they come off.
00:04:37.293 --> 00:04:39.528
And one guy came up to me he's like where do you live?
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:47.521
And I told him.
00:04:47.540 --> 00:04:49.706
He's like oh, you're in the 85257 zip code south scottsdale.
00:04:49.725 --> 00:04:50.226
I was like, oh god, forbid.
00:04:50.226 --> 00:04:50.867
I live on the border of tempe.
00:04:50.867 --> 00:04:51.228
Are you serious?
00:04:51.249 --> 00:04:51.730
I'm a judge for that.
00:04:51.730 --> 00:04:54.221
Yeah, I'm like everyone's fighting for the 85251.
00:04:54.221 --> 00:04:56.086
I'm like this is crazy.
00:04:56.247 --> 00:05:23.350
So I will tell you this, lindsey, when I was buying my place this was back in 2014 I my friend who was my real estate agent I specifically told her I would not look at homes in 85257 for that reason I was like the fact that I gave him my crossroads and he immediately knew I was like I don't even remember my zip code sometimes, so for you to just know off the bat is wild, my friend.
00:05:23.350 --> 00:05:24.942
It's really.
00:05:24.942 --> 00:05:28.971
It's just everything's just like fighting for like the next best thing.
00:05:28.971 --> 00:05:29.492
It's crazy.
00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:32.449
But then half of them, the men and the women, it's.
00:05:32.449 --> 00:05:34.617
I mean, you can't say just men right.
00:05:34.637 --> 00:05:36.524
Oh, it's totally women too, because it's the women too yeah.
00:05:37.339 --> 00:05:39.367
They don't even have it like that.
00:05:39.367 --> 00:05:41.427
They just pretend like they do.
00:05:41.427 --> 00:05:53.245
You have the $30,000 millionaires, and then you have the women who have 150,000 followers and they have the BBL, and they have the lips and the hair and all of this, but they're sleeping on a mattress on the floor.
00:05:53.245 --> 00:05:55.089
They don't even have a bed frame.
00:05:55.089 --> 00:06:01.067
Like it's, like it's all this, it's just for show for image.
00:06:01.067 --> 00:06:02.069
It's not even real.
00:06:02.129 --> 00:06:20.884
Half of it, probably probably 75 of it, isn't even real would you say there are a lot of gold diggers out there in scottsdale it's hard for me to say a gold digger, but there are so many women that are like, if you're not going to do anything for me, then why would I spend my time speaking to you?
00:06:20.884 --> 00:06:32.064
Kind of thing where it's like, if I can't benefit from this conversation at all in any way, shape or form, there's no point in having it, and that's what's kind of like wild to me because I'll talk to anybody.
00:06:32.064 --> 00:06:36.024
I would tell a homeless person my life story if they wanted to listen to it.
00:06:36.363 --> 00:06:41.382
But when you date, do you expect a guy to drive a certain car or make a certain amount of money?
00:06:41.682 --> 00:06:45.872
no, I like will fall in love with literally anybody, I think.
00:06:45.872 --> 00:06:48.831
Last night I was out at a bar and I fell in love with the bartender.
00:06:48.891 --> 00:06:51.343
I was like oh my gosh, the bartender is so cute.
00:06:51.343 --> 00:06:54.531
But then also I would date an engineer.
00:06:54.531 --> 00:07:05.190
Well, I don't know if we could have conversations, he might be too smart for me, but but you know, like I really don't care about those things, as long as you're nice, funny and you do what you say you're going to do.
00:07:05.190 --> 00:07:07.408
That's really all that I ask for.
00:07:07.408 --> 00:07:10.329
I don't need everything else.
00:07:10.329 --> 00:07:16.009
But there's girls that are like I won't date somebody if they're not making $200,000 a year.
00:07:16.009 --> 00:07:18.398
Okay, that's a good start.
00:07:18.701 --> 00:07:23.807
Have you ever thought about doing Sugar Baby or anything like that, or have you ever been approached to do that?
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:29.312
I've been approached once in person and it's so funny.
00:07:29.312 --> 00:07:31.560
I was at in and out and I was eating.
00:07:32.021 --> 00:07:34.968
I was eating a double double like in sweatpants.
00:07:34.968 --> 00:07:37.341
And this guy's like, oh, this girl needs some help.
00:07:37.341 --> 00:07:39.305
And so he comes up to me.
00:07:39.305 --> 00:07:40.309
He's like what do you do for work?
00:07:40.309 --> 00:07:41.432
I say I'm a hairstylist.
00:07:41.432 --> 00:07:47.122
He's like, well, do you need any extra income?
00:07:47.122 --> 00:07:47.543
And I was like what?
00:07:47.543 --> 00:07:51.411
Like literally no makeup on eating double double by myself, just enjoying my five minutes.
00:07:51.411 --> 00:07:53.244
And he's like do you mind if I sit down?
00:07:53.244 --> 00:07:55.874
He's like I guess like have a seat.
00:07:55.874 --> 00:07:57.839
He's like six thousand dollars a month.
00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:01.285
I want to see you once a week dinner.
00:08:01.285 --> 00:08:04.230
I live in Tempe, and that's all.
00:08:04.230 --> 00:08:06.713
I was like just for dinner.
00:08:06.713 --> 00:08:08.519
And he's like well, we'd hook up too.
00:08:08.519 --> 00:08:10.487
And I was like was he good looking?
00:08:11.048 --> 00:08:14.639
no, he was not good looking, I wasn't attracted to him.
00:08:14.660 --> 00:08:15.141
How old was he?
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:22.413
he was probably in his like late 50s and for me, like I just can't date older than 35.
00:08:22.413 --> 00:08:32.928
I don't shame anyone who can have like a big age gap, but I I am just like so, so, so, so, so close to my dad and like my dad's 56, and I'm like I cannot date someone that's similar to age in my dad.
00:08:32.928 --> 00:08:35.729
Like I feel like I'm like dating one of his friends.
00:08:35.980 --> 00:08:38.909
And how would he feel if you bring home your boyfriend and they're the same age?
00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:51.085
My dad would be so pissed he would be like this is not happening unless I was like this is the love of my life.
00:08:51.105 --> 00:08:52.148
My dad would be like okay, but he would not be comfy.
00:08:52.148 --> 00:08:54.073
Just like I wouldn't be cool if he was like this is my 27 year old girlfriend.
00:08:54.094 --> 00:08:55.116
Right, I'd be like she's gotta go actually.
00:08:55.116 --> 00:08:56.059
So, um yeah, I said no.
00:08:56.059 --> 00:08:58.806
He continued to try for probably like a month.
00:08:58.806 --> 00:09:05.379
He's like please, and I was like I really can't do this, wait, so you exchanged contact information with him, then yeah, cause.
00:09:05.379 --> 00:09:14.581
I gave him my, he gave me his number and then my friend, I was like call this number because it was the in and out that really is really close to ASU and I was like what if he's like a sex trafficker?
00:09:14.900 --> 00:09:15.381
Right so.
00:09:15.501 --> 00:09:18.065
I was like call this number and see if this guy answers.
00:09:18.065 --> 00:09:19.586
And he did.
00:09:19.586 --> 00:09:21.529
And I was like okay, so it's legit.
00:09:21.529 --> 00:09:22.611
And I was like so what are like?
00:09:22.611 --> 00:09:23.552
What are you looking for?
00:09:23.552 --> 00:09:25.735
Because I was like what if I'm solving like a sex trafficking thing?
00:09:25.735 --> 00:09:29.350
And then I realized I was like no, he's just a real dude that really wants a sugar baby.
00:09:29.350 --> 00:09:30.846
And I was like okay, I'm out on this one.
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.582
But I wondered, does he actually have $6,000 a month to give?
00:09:34.582 --> 00:09:39.067
I remember you dated a guy that falsely promised women money in exchange for pictures.
00:09:39.067 --> 00:09:41.769
Him, the pictures, he blocked them.
00:09:41.830 --> 00:09:47.595
Yeah never gave them money, but this guy wanted an in-person companion, which is which is a little bit different.
00:09:47.654 --> 00:09:53.634
He really wanted an open relationship yeah, he was willing to pay for yeah, six thousand a month dang I know one night a week.
00:09:53.634 --> 00:09:55.741
I know I was like it's not a bad deal.
00:09:55.761 --> 00:09:56.724
If you think about it.
00:09:56.724 --> 00:10:02.784
I was like, if he was hot, I would have been like okay, maybe but I was so unattractive to him I was like there's no way it's.
00:10:02.804 --> 00:10:03.044
It's true.
00:10:03.044 --> 00:10:04.889
If he was hot, that would change everything.
00:10:04.889 --> 00:10:06.833
Yeah, because I was like I might hook up with you for free.
00:10:06.860 --> 00:10:11.210
And now I'm just getting $1,000 out of it Like, okay yeah, easy peasy yeah.
00:10:11.630 --> 00:10:12.592
I know that's the thing I say.
00:10:12.592 --> 00:10:30.514
I'm like I wish sometimes my eyeballs different and I don't understand the women that are able to just look past all of that for the money.
00:10:30.514 --> 00:10:31.878
I don't understand it.
00:10:31.878 --> 00:10:33.101
I will never understand it.
00:10:33.221 --> 00:10:43.543
No, I was friends with a girl for a really, really short period of time, like a couple months maybe, and she was telling me that she had a sugar daddy at one point paid her $10,000 to have sex with him.
00:10:43.543 --> 00:10:48.364
I was like I don't think that it was ten thousand for one time.
00:10:48.364 --> 00:10:50.528
But okay, whatever your story is your story.
00:10:50.528 --> 00:10:57.744
And she was like money changes everything, like someone's gonna give me ten thousand dollars and I was like I couldn't.
00:10:58.125 --> 00:10:59.548
I couldn't, I couldn't do it?
00:10:59.769 --> 00:11:00.289
I couldn't either.
00:11:00.309 --> 00:11:09.375
And then what do you guys think about the women who say because there are also women out there who are like no, they're just paying for companionship, I don't even.
00:11:09.375 --> 00:11:11.783
They're lying right, right.
00:11:11.903 --> 00:11:17.383
I have heard so many sugar daddy stories, and especially in old town, and the girls were like, well, I don't have to sleep with him.
00:11:17.503 --> 00:11:20.048
Yes, you do he's not paying for a pen pal.
00:11:20.048 --> 00:11:21.432
Thank you, I agree.
00:11:21.432 --> 00:11:26.020
They just think now they don't want to be labeled a slut, so that's what they tell themselves.
00:11:26.020 --> 00:11:28.366
But I feel like they all expect sex.
00:11:28.427 --> 00:11:34.388
No, for that kind of money yeah, no, guy is like, I'm gonna pay this girl five thousand dollars to sit at dinner with me.
00:11:34.467 --> 00:11:40.354
Yeah, just for just to have a cute little thing on my arm and to have a good conversation?
00:11:40.554 --> 00:11:45.628
absolutely not so my thing is, because I know a lot of women that are with men just for the money and in relationships.
00:11:45.628 --> 00:11:52.116
But you have to travel with them, you have to spend time with them, you have to wake up next to them like how bought, if you're not connected, you know I couldn't do it.
00:11:52.136 --> 00:11:56.219
You couldn't pay me the amount of money in the world to sleep next to a man that I did not like.
00:11:57.422 --> 00:12:00.347
You could be in bora bora or fiji, but you're with him.
00:12:00.408 --> 00:12:03.215
Yeah, no, it's just and like that's.
00:12:03.215 --> 00:12:05.659
The thing is like the scottsdale men, like with money.
00:12:05.659 --> 00:12:11.522
They just think that their money is going to get them any girl that they want which, sadly, probably it does work.
00:12:11.562 --> 00:12:15.674
It does a lot of times, I think yeah, I think it does I think it does it.
00:12:16.517 --> 00:12:24.812
It does enough times to make them continue to try to make that offer on a regular basis.
00:12:24.972 --> 00:12:36.086
I mean it's crazy to me, Like I know a couple of guys that are loaded millionaires and they are not attractive at all, but they get the most beautiful women and I'm like you are lucky you have money, because you would be screwed.
00:12:36.086 --> 00:12:37.706
Yeah, literally.
00:12:38.120 --> 00:12:47.129
I would say I get approached more often by guys that are probably 38 and above than I do guys my age, or it's like 22 to 24.
00:12:47.129 --> 00:12:51.711
The 22 to 24-year-olds they are out on the prowl and they will talk to anybody.
00:12:51.921 --> 00:12:53.097
They're bold too, aren't they?
00:12:53.240 --> 00:13:00.089
Yeah, and then I'm like I'm 27, and they're like oh, you're old, I'm like why, you didn't think I was until you heard my age, so whatever.
00:13:00.089 --> 00:13:03.003
So are you on the dating apps?
00:13:03.003 --> 00:13:05.188
I'm on raya, so I'm only on raya.
00:13:05.188 --> 00:13:06.692
I was on hinge for a little bit.
00:13:06.692 --> 00:13:08.645
Hinge is just very overwhelming.
00:13:08.645 --> 00:13:13.600
It's like there's so many people on hinge and I went on one date from hinge.
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:17.249
That was so incredibly atrocious how so?
00:13:17.249 --> 00:13:22.546
It was the worst date I've ever been on oh tell us about it.
00:13:22.566 --> 00:13:25.511
You don't have to say his name or give any identifying information.
00:13:25.532 --> 00:13:31.951
Talk about it and I actually ran into him last weekend at the bar and I didn't even recognize him.
00:13:32.051 --> 00:13:37.589
He like tapped me as I was walking by and he goes, hey, and I was like hi, it's like, do you remember me?
00:13:37.589 --> 00:13:43.225
It's like we went on a date here and I was like, oh yeah, and I then I was like it all clicked.
00:13:43.225 --> 00:13:44.347
I was like I gotta go bye.
00:13:44.347 --> 00:13:56.741
But essentially he picked me up and the minute I walked out of my apartment you know when you're just like no, like right off the bat I walked outside and I was like no, I wish I could just turn around.
00:13:56.741 --> 00:13:58.649
I wish I could just go back in my apartment.
00:13:58.649 --> 00:14:04.525
He opens the car door, trash everywhere, and I was like you couldn't even like stop in a circle, okay, and throw it away.
00:14:04.525 --> 00:14:06.970
Throw it in your back seat, like something.
00:14:07.051 --> 00:14:10.383
No, and he was like, and he didn't even say like sorry about the mess.
00:14:10.383 --> 00:14:12.168
So I was like okay, so you're already a messy person.
00:14:12.168 --> 00:14:13.759
He wanted to go to dinner.
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:15.863
He didn't have a place planned of where he was going to dinner.
00:14:15.863 --> 00:14:18.787
I immediately knew I was not going to be able to make it through a dinner.
00:14:18.787 --> 00:14:21.971
I said how about we just go to this bar right around the corner?
00:14:21.971 --> 00:14:22.831
I always go there.
00:14:22.831 --> 00:14:25.235
Then I was like it's In-N-Out, easy peasy.
00:14:25.235 --> 00:14:26.535
He's like yeah, that works.
00:14:26.535 --> 00:14:30.210
Orders a double whiskey with water at 6 pm.
00:14:30.210 --> 00:14:32.067
So I was like so you're a heavy drinker.
00:14:32.067 --> 00:14:34.504
Anyone ordering a double whiskey water?
00:14:34.885 --> 00:14:36.551
at a dive bar is wild.
00:14:36.551 --> 00:14:37.221
Yeah.
00:14:37.221 --> 00:14:47.519
At happy hour time yeah, I'm like no no, no, no, no so then.
00:14:47.539 --> 00:14:48.943
So then, um, he goes to open a tab no debit card, what doesn't he?
00:14:48.943 --> 00:14:49.687
She's like do you have a card?
00:14:49.687 --> 00:14:50.909
He's like fumbling through his wallet nothing.
00:14:50.909 --> 00:14:53.135
And I was like, how were you gonna pay for dinner?
00:14:53.135 --> 00:14:55.287
Like, was I gonna pay, which?
00:14:55.287 --> 00:14:58.919
I mean like I have my wallet because I come prepared, but I mean this is crazy.
00:14:58.919 --> 00:15:01.645
So there was that.
00:15:01.645 --> 00:15:06.923
So he like hands this the bartender like a crumpled up like 12 dollars in, like a ball.
00:15:06.923 --> 00:15:08.206
Oh my god.
00:15:08.206 --> 00:15:14.081
I was like I'm mortified right now, truly mortified, and he goes and, by the way, did you know that I have a kid?
00:15:14.081 --> 00:15:19.130
Oh, and I was like, no, sure, didn't.
00:15:19.130 --> 00:15:22.543
So I was like, okay, well, this is already like so done.
00:15:22.543 --> 00:15:27.073
Every question he asked me when I would be like halfway through answering it, pulled out his phone.
00:15:27.956 --> 00:15:28.518
Oh, that's annoying.
00:15:28.518 --> 00:15:29.340
Are you serious?
00:15:29.419 --> 00:15:35.826
Pulled out his phone every time and I was just like, finally, after like the fourth question, I was like do you even care what I'm saying?
00:15:35.826 --> 00:15:36.750
I started making things up.
00:15:36.750 --> 00:15:38.961
I was like I'm just going to start telling lies here.
00:15:38.961 --> 00:15:42.966
And then he was in the middle of telling me a story and I was like I cannot do this anymore.
00:15:42.966 --> 00:15:44.908
I said can we leave?
00:15:44.908 --> 00:15:45.668
Can you take me home?
00:15:45.668 --> 00:15:48.150
And I was like, if you can't take me home, I'm going to Uber.
00:15:48.150 --> 00:15:49.131
I cannot do this anymore.
