00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,000
Welcome to Fit to Be Real and a little extra.

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:10,000
Welcome to our tell all episode of the history of wrong guys.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000
You wanted the tea.

4
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:18,000
And Victoria usually does not give out this information, so she's decided to put it on a podcast.

5
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:23,000
Yeah, actually you decided in the last episode and said I had to and that's how it happened.

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:24,000
It's a form of therapy.

7
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:29,000
Sherry told me yesterday after listening to the podcast from last week, she said,

8
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:31,000
the kettle was dry.

9
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,000
There was not a spill the tea.

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:34,000
I was like, it's coming.

11
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,000
It's coming.

12
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,000
The kettle was dry.

13
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,000
You put me on the spot and I feel like this might be funny.

14
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000
So yes, your relationships are funny.

15
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000
I went through everything to timeline it out and like try to remember.

16
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:54,000
I'm also changing names and I was like, wow, I've I've been through a lot.

17
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,000
And so have I because I went through it too.

18
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,000
That's why every one of them left.

19
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,000
Kidding.

20
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,000
Sort of.

21
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
This all begins in 2012.

22
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000
So I graduated college in 2011.

23
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,000
And I didn't date before then.

24
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:22,000
No, I that was the year I got married.

25
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,000
I'm sorry.

26
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
It wasn't the year you got married.

27
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000
I left my graduation from my college.

28
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:31,000
I left the stage and got in the car to go to Carly's wedding.

29
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:35,000
So yes, in any case, I didn't have time.

30
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:39,000
You didn't have time and you again were in the musical theater department.

31
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,000
So the pickings were slim.

32
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,000
The pickings were gay.

33
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,000
The pickings were very gay.

34
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:45,000
The pickings were gay.

35
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,000
We love the gays.

36
00:01:46,000 --> 00:01:48,000
I dated them all.

37
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,000
So my first experience was off of match.com.

38
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:54,000
But remember, if you listen back to some of our other episodes, match.com was different.

39
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,000
Yeah, it was like the first big launch of online dating.

40
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,000
And it was one of the only apps or wasn't even an app at the time.

41
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,000
You had to be on a desktop and people were writing full emails.

42
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,000
Like you really get a good grasp of people.

43
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,000
So I met a guy we're going to call Benny.

44
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,000
Oh, OK.

45
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
But he was a construction type guy.

46
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:15,000
I know who you're talking about.

47
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:16,000
With lots of daddy issues.

48
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:22,000
Oh, Benny and mommy issues and step daddy issues.

49
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,000
But he was the type of guy.

50
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,000
It was fun because he was super sweet.

51
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:31,000
But he he wasn't that like put on a suit, go to work guy.

52
00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:32,000
We went camping.

53
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:34,000
Yeah, we did, you know,

54
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:37,000
Victoria dressed in a lot of camouflage during this relationship.

55
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000
I did.

56
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,000
John Deere was the output of choice.

57
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Yup.

58
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:49,000
And I was like, what are you got some turquoise cowboy boots I've been trying to sell for years of anybody wants them.

59
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:58,000
But yeah, so the long and short of this one is that I was also starting my first like professional show.

60
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,000
I was doing hairspray at the media theater.

61
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,000
And that was like such an experience.

62
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:05,000
It was awesome.

63
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:09,000
But it was also tainted by this relationship to a degree.

64
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:13,000
Because driving to Kentucky for Billy's wedding.

65
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,000
I found a little thing we like to call Suboxone.

66
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,000
You know what Suboxone is?

67
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,000
No.

68
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,000
I did a lot of research at the time, but I've kind of blocked it all out.

69
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:30,000
So Suboxone is the little like pill or chewable thing you take to help wean you off of heroin.

70
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,000
Oh my gosh.

71
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:32,000
Or hard drugs.

72
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,000
I mean, I knew about the hard drugs, but I don't know what Suboxone.

73
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,000
I didn't know what Suboxone was.

74
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,000
It's like what you it's how they help you.

75
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Yeah.

76
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Right.

77
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:46,000
So I found them in like the hotel motel and had no idea what the heck.

78
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,000
So basically he was a lie extraordinaire.

79
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
Yes.

80
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,000
And he was really, really good at being an addict.

81
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,000
And that's what he was.

82
00:03:55,000 --> 00:03:56,000
And I didn't know.

83
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,000
And I fought it in my brain and I fought it.

84
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:00,000
I fought mom.

85
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,000
Yeah.

86
00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:06,000
I mean, I think when you when we found out we were like, oh no, this has got to stop.

87
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,000
And you were like, no, no, no, no, no, no.

88
00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:09,000
Yeah.

89
00:04:09,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Well, I thought I believed him.

90
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:11,000
Yeah.

91
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:18,000
Turns out he was not only stealing money from me, but then he's decided to steal from a casino in Delaware and he got arrested.

92
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:22,000
Clearly we had already been terminated by that point.

93
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:24,000
But I do remember my birthday that year.

94
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:29,000
I was headed to a show to do hairspray and I had to sit on a phone for a family intervention.

95
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:33,000
And they all were trying to help him get into like rehab and stuff.

96
00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,000
And he continued to try to send me letters from jail for a while.

97
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,000
Yep.

98
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,000
And I asked that to stop.

99
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:38,000
I was living in New York.

100
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,000
You were like, please stop sending me letters from jail.

101
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:45,000
I have recently found that he's doing wonderfully.

102
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,000
He's married.

103
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,000
He has a new dog and hopefully things are good for him.

104
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,000
So that's good.

105
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:54,000
He stole your debit card and used it at Wawa.

106
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,000
And wow, I forgot.

107
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,000
Remember that?

108
00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:03,000
And we were like, Victoria, he stole your debit card and used it like and stole money from you while you guys were dating.

109
00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,000
You were like, no, not he couldn't be.

110
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Then who?

111
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:08,000
We were like, it's him.

112
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:09,000
It's Benny.

113
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,000
I didn't want to be told.

114
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:15,000
It was such a young person thing to do.

115
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,000
He was also like always at mom's house and like semi would stay there sometimes.

116
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:21,000
So he was like living there, but not really.

117
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000
Yeah.

118
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:28,000
He has an apartment in his own place, but mom had a bad vibe and continuously tried to tell me about it.

119
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,000
And I was just fighting that because I already knew.

120
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,000
Oh, I mean, I didn't want to hear it.

121
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
Then we move on to Chip.

122
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:36,000
Chip.

123
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,000
Oh gosh, who's Chip?

124
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:41,000
Chip lived out in Westchester, New York.

125
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:43,000
So not in Manhattan proper, which is where I lived.

126
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,000
And we met on match.com as well.

127
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,000
And this was a preppy guy.

128
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,000
So this is very different than Camo.

129
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:50,000
He was bougie.

130
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Money was an interesting topic, even though he was like presented himself as a really nice guy and had nothing to do with that.

131
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:04,000
He's what made New York kind of fun though for me because I went to a lot of clubs at night and I never did the club scene before or after this relationship.

132
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,000
And that was a brand new experience.

133
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,000
And I kind of had, I was the first time I had fun.

134
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,000
It wasn't just like working in New York.

135
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,000
In New York, yeah.

136
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:12,000
We had fun.

137
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000
We went to shows.

138
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:18,000
We would do like, we went to the zoo up in the Upper East Side and we would walk around Manhattan and we would go to different places.

139
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:21,000
Like it was kind of that Hallmark New York experience.

140
00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Yeah.

141
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,000
Very briefly I got to experience that and then I never did again.

142
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:29,000
He was also opening a fitness business.

143
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:37,000
And I helped him with, he would like send me things to proofread and ideas and should I buy this or should I buy this?

144
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:46,000
So like I was there for all of his, you know, starting his baby project of this business, which I now believe is he sold and started a new one.

145
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,000
No way.

146
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:48,000
Like he's doing really well, I think.

147
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,000
Oh, Chip.

148
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Oh, Chip.

149
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,000
This is also when I broke my hip.

150
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,000
I know.

151
00:06:52,000 --> 00:07:00,000
I broke my hip running for exercise with Carly down the shore first or second day of our vacation and I broke my hip.

152
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,000
At what?

153
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:02,000
24?

154
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,000
24.

155
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,000
24, yeah.

156
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:06,000
Only 24 year old to ever break your hip.

157
00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:16,000
And I'll never forget we're sitting, mom drove me home to a proper hospital and we're sitting there like waiting for X-ray results and she was like, will she be allowed to have children?

158
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:21,000
I'll never forget the slow side eye I gave her of like,

159
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,000
Are you kidding me?

160
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:23,000
Oh my gosh.

161
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:29,000
I mean, that's, I'm not that surprised that that was the question she asked, but, but yeah, so I broke my hip.

162
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:36,000
Carly had to wheel me with a PCB pipe wheelchair on the beach and she was embarrassing.

163
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Embarrassing for who, Carly?

164
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,000
For me.

165
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:42,000
Because you would literally be wheeling me onto the beach going, she's fine.

166
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,000
She's not even hurt.

167
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,000
I mean, she's mine.

168
00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:45,000
It's for show.

169
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,000
There's no cast.

170
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,000
Get up.

171
00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,000
I am then packing beach chairs on top of me.

172
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:57,000
And then we were like, if you're going to sit there, you're going to hold the rest of our stuff.

173
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:02,000
But with that said, when I moved back to New York, still like, wait, wait, wait, Chip showed up.

174
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,000
Oh, yes.

175
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:05,000
To the beach to see how you were.

176
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:08,000
Because he, we had called Chip to tell him what happened.

177
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:09,000
She broke her hip.

178
00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:10,000
She can't walk.

179
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:15,000
He came to our family shore house to check on you for less than 12 hours.

180
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:16,000
Yeah.

181
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,000
Yeah.

182
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,000
Very, very short.

183
00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:21,000
He came back here to Ocean City, New Jersey, stayed for dinner.

184
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:22,000
And left.

185
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:27,000
And left because he had to go back to work and everyone was like, oh my gosh, this guy is like amazing.

186
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,000
Who does that?

187
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,000
He's a very good actor.

188
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:34,000
He's such a good, like wholesome person, blah, blah, blah, blah.

189
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:40,000
So when I got back to New York, still recovering, but got back to work, it was like a different experience, right?

190
00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:47,000
So breaking anything in New York City is a really hard thing to do to get around and maneuver and be mobile.

191
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:57,000
And I remember probably getting into a little bit of, I don't think depression is the word, but I was like trying to grasp on to what life was before.

192
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:03,000
So if I'm going to be an adult and be mature enough to look back, I got needy.

193
00:09:03,000 --> 00:09:10,000
And I needed a lot from him and I wanted him to come into the city more to see me and I couldn't get to him on my own.

194
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,000
So like that was the only avenue.

195
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:16,000
Well, in defense of your neediness, you needed help.

196
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,000
Sometimes you need help or sometimes it's nice to have somebody else there.

197
00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:22,000
So I understand your neediness.

198
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,000
I understand.

199
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,000
Yeah.

200
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,000
Well, I'm not dating you.

201
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,000
So that's nice.

202
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,000
Thank God.

203
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:28,000
But I think we are.

204
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,000
But anyway, you would call me and be like, I just need chip time.

205
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,000
And I was like, that's chip time.

206
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:34,000
Yeah.

207
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,000
Who needs chip time?

208
00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,000
Why can't I be there for chip time?

209
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:45,000
And like, basically, he was rekindling a relationship with a girl friend or girl that he had known before.

210
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,000
And I kind of caught the vibe on this.

211
00:09:47,000 --> 00:10:02,000
So I did the sneaky, you know, murder, she wrote thing and I went into his emails and I read correspondence and I read that he had an opening business party that he had launched his business that I had helped him with.

212
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,000
And he did the full party that I knew was going to happen.

213
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:07,000
He had already done it and she was invited.

214
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,000
I saw pictures and she was there.

215
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,000
He denied that till the day we stopped talking.

216
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:12,000
Really?

217
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:13,000
He denied it.

218
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:18,000
He actually pre not today or yesterday in my research of remembering all these relationships.

219
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:20,000
I looked into an email.

220
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,000
He loved bombed me till the very end.

221
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:23,000
He was a coward.

222
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,000
Yeah.

223
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Coward would be the word, right?

224
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:31,000
So he loved bombing to the very end and was like, and by the way, it was just friends and family invited.

225
00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:32,000
She wasn't there.

226
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,000
And I'm like, here's a picture that I saw from your email.

227
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:36,000
You got to be kidding me.

228
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:39,000
But yeah, never talked to him again.

229
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,000
Yeah, we were, we were not sad to see chip go though.

230
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:43,000
It was shocking.

231
00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:45,000
He presented himself pretty well.

232
00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,000
But he did.

233
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,000
He was my first adult vacation with Atlantic City.

234
00:10:49,000 --> 00:10:50,000
It's the first time I ever did that.

235
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,000
We traveled to a road trip to Boston to visit his family.

236
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,000
I was the first girl he ever brought to his family.

237
00:10:55,000 --> 00:11:00,000
Like, so there's so many things that he was looking for and finding himself in.

238
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,000
So hopefully he's happily married now.

239
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000
Then we move on.

240
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,000
Yeah, this one's a good one to Timmy.

241
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,000
Timmy, Timmy, Timmy, Timmy.

242
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,000
What could possibly be said about Timmy?

243
00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,000
Oh, I have some things to say about Timmy.

244
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:19,000
Timmy lived in an extension of New York, New Jersey, and I lived in Manhattan.

245
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:27,000
However, we had reconnected in our 20s via an Instagram DM.

246
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,000
I went to grade school with Timmy.

247
00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:31,000
And on paper, it was like perfect.

248
00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,000
I mean, we were like, this is it.

249
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,000
Yeah, this is it.

250
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,000
Yeah, we did it, guys.

251
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:43,000
Mom said she prayed that when I went and did a contract of a show called West Side Story in Urshinside,

252
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,000
she prayed that I would meet someone.

253
00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,000
And then I reconnected with Timmy.

254
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,000
And she was like, I did this.

255
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,000
I did this.

256
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:52,000
Yeah, Mom, you did this.

257
00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,000
Well, if you did this, shame on you.

258
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,000
Shame on you.

259
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:02,000
So yes, on paper, it was like the perfect Cinderella story type of thing, right?

260
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,000
It couldn't have been farther from that in so many ways.

261
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,000
Our families had dinner together.

262
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,000
Dinners.

263
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,000
We spent a more real day together.

264
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:12,000
Yep.

265
00:12:12,000 --> 00:12:13,000
Yeah.

266
00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,000
Barbecues.

267
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,000
But it was always a little weird.

268
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:16,000
Yeah.

269
00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:18,000
It was very weird.

270
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,000
I think we are close.

271
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:21,000
Yes.

272
00:12:21,000 --> 00:12:25,000
Timmy got real close with some of his family members.

273
00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,000
Yes.

274
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:27,000
Yes.

275
00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:31,000
The family was uncomfortably close in our opinion.

276
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:34,000
I can only speak on what I experienced and what I know.

277
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:40,000
And one of the big factors to splitting was that there was a sibling vacation,

278
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:44,000
a weekend trip just for his siblings.

279
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:47,000
And it was basically his siblings and their partners and not me.

280
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,000
Right.

281
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:50,000
And I was very confused by this.

282
00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,000
And one of the last times he, you know, his parents were in New York.

283
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,000
I was like, OK, well, I'll come meet you.

284
00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,000
And he was like, no, my mom just wants Timmy time.

285
00:12:58,000 --> 00:12:59,000
Timmy time.

286
00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:00,000
Timmy time.

287
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:01,000
Yep.

288
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,000
Chip time, Timmy time.

289
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:03,000
I remember that.

290
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:04,000
Timmy time.

291
00:13:04,000 --> 00:13:06,000
Lots of Timmy time was needed.

292
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:13,000
And it was just things that the differences in, even though we grew up in the same town

293
00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:20,000
with similar close family morals, couldn't the differences outweighed anything?

294
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:25,000
And that very close family relationship that was, you know, rubbing your siblings' feet

295
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,000
on the couch after dinner.

296
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,000
Don't even try.

297
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:29,000
Oh my gosh.

298
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,000
I sat there and I would be like.

299
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:32,000
Skewed.

300
00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,000
What's she doing?

301
00:13:33,000 --> 00:13:37,000
And all of them, parents alike would be like, what?

302
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,000
Like it's weird.

303
00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Yeah.

304
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:40,000
I was like, kind of.

305
00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,000
After dinner was music time.

306
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,000
He sat in the lounge living room area and you had to listen to music.

307
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,000
And it was, you know, it was nice family moments.

308
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,000
There's nothing wrong with that.

309
00:13:48,000 --> 00:13:51,000
I was still, remember I'm young at this point too.

310
00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:54,000
So I also thought this is the end of.

311
00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:56,000
We all thought this was the end game.

312
00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:57,000
We talked about it.

313
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:59,000
We had these conversations.

314
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:03,000
But he wanted me to be his sister.

315
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Yeah.

316
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:07,000
He told me I should dye my hair black.

317
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,000
And they were all very thin and trim.

318
00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,000
And I, you know, was not.

319
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:17,000
And so it was a lot of these things that made me uncomfortable, but like it was Timmy.

320
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:22,400
So, but I do remember crying a lot because we would go out in New York and I would have

321
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,500
won too many or we would be having a good time and it always ended in tears because I was

322
00:14:26,500 --> 00:14:28,000
never, there was something wrong.

323
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,000
You know, oh, I remember.

324
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:36,000
So I'll never forget sitting in the Starbucks on Baltimore Pike in Pennsylvania for the townies,

325
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,000
you know where I am.

326
00:14:38,000 --> 00:14:45,000
And having this big conversation about why siblings weekend involved everyone outside

327
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:49,000
of siblings, but me and why in your twenties do you have to go do a sibling weekend with

328
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,000
your two sisters.

329
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:54,000
And I remember sitting there going, do you even love me anymore?

330
00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:57,000
And he was like, no, I remember this conversation.

331
00:14:57,000 --> 00:14:58,000
No.

332
00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:01,000
And it was craziness ensued.

333
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:06,000
There was also a weird thing about the woman's place and money.

334
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,000
I'll never forget him coming over at Christmas.

335
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,000
We wouldn't do holidays.

336
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:12,000
I remember.

337
00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,000
No, no, no, no.

338
00:15:13,000 --> 00:15:17,000
He would not come over at holidays, but he came over on Christmas Eve, like morning or

339
00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:19,000
maybe it was Christmas day morning.

340
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,000
I don't even remember.

341
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:25,000
And he was making jokes about how his mom was just a part time physician.

342
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,000
She wasn't even full time.

343
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:28,000
She wasn't bringing in the money.

344
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:31,000
And my mom and I, we looked and we were like, I was there.

345
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,000
What?

346
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,000
I remember that.

347
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:39,000
I can't even remember what it was exactly said, but it was the most outlandish, sexist

348
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:44,000
thing I think I've ever heard anyone say in real life, not on like a social media platform.

349
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:45,000
Yeah.

350
00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,000
And it was just alarming.

351
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:48,000
It was alarming.

352
00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,000
And I remember having conversations with him after that being like, I'm never going to

353
00:15:51,000 --> 00:15:54,000
make as much money as you ever.

354
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:59,000
I'm going to run a business with my sister and we're never going to make money.

355
00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:00,000
We're never going to make money.

356
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:02,000
You have to be okay with that.

357
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,000
You can't compare and blah, blah, blah, blah.

358
00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:05,000
Yeah.

359
00:16:05,000 --> 00:16:06,000
That didn't go over well.

360
00:16:06,000 --> 00:16:07,000
Yep.

361
00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:12,280
There were so many things about Timmy that made us uncomfortable, but we wanted it so

362
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:19,000
badly that we even as a family tried to ignore it.

363
00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:20,000
Well, good riddance.

364
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,000
Well, hopefully he's doing well.

365
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,000
Yeah, sure.

366
00:16:23,000 --> 00:16:26,000
But you know, Brad was a bro.

367
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:30,000
Bro, Brad lived in a mannyunk.

368
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:31,000
Okay.

369
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,000
Oh, Brad.

370
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,000
Brad.

371
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,000
We saw this.

372
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,000
Brad was fun.

373
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:36,000
Brad was fun.

374
00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Met him on Bumble.

375
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,080
This is when Bumble started to come on the scene.

376
00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:41,280
I'm that old.

377
00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,000
I remember when these apps started.

378
00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:45,000
Yeah.

379
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:46,000
Okay.

380
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:47,000
You're not that old.

381
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:49,000
But with that in perspective of like when these apps were, this was like huge.

382
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,000
We were like, what?

383
00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:51,000
You can swipe?

384
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,720
Well, that's when swipe left, swipe right started.

385
00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:54,040
And I was not a part of this yet.

386
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:55,040
Not with Brad.

387
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,520
Cause I would have been like, nah.

388
00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,320
Well, he didn't want, he was afraid of commitment.

389
00:16:59,320 --> 00:17:00,320
Right.

390
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:06,520
I told him, I remember sitting at a bar with his friends from college and he was saying

391
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:11,120
why he couldn't commit to something like a weekend ahead plan that we were all trying

392
00:17:11,120 --> 00:17:12,120
to make.

393
00:17:12,120 --> 00:17:14,800
And I looked at him and I went, your commitment issues are boring.

394
00:17:14,800 --> 00:17:15,800
Yeah.

395
00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:17,240
And they cheered.

396
00:17:17,240 --> 00:17:21,920
He was the only and first guy that was ever younger than me that I ever dated because

397
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:23,480
I can't do that.

398
00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:24,480
Yeah.

399
00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:25,720
I mean, he was a total frat boy.

400
00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:26,720
He was a frat boy.

401
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,440
He lived with a bunch of dudes and manny on after college.

402
00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,440
But gorgeous.

403
00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:32,960
But didn't matter.

404
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:34,200
Lots of family issues.

405
00:17:34,200 --> 00:17:37,280
All of these people have family issues, which we all do.

406
00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:38,280
We all do.

407
00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:44,640
But I attract, I attract what they, they have been missing and then it falls apart.

408
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:45,640
Right.

409
00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:48,800
So do as I say, not as I do.

410
00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:54,280
But we went to Coachella because Andrew's company was spearheading it.

411
00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:55,280
So there was a huge discount.

412
00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:59,040
I have to say that because that is the only way I could have gone to Coachella.

413
00:17:59,040 --> 00:18:02,000
There was a giant family discount due to Andrew.

414
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,000
So thank you, Andrew.

415
00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:04,000
No, thank you, Andrew.

416
00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,600
Coachella was awesome, super fun.

417
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:08,600
It's a cool experience.

418
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:09,800
I'm glad that I did.

419
00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:11,520
But he was just trying to get to Coachella.

420
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:12,520
Right.

421
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:17,600
Like one of the things was the airplane getting, getting to California.

422
00:18:17,600 --> 00:18:20,280
We were sitting at two different seats and it's the first time I ever flew to California

423
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,400
or that long by myself.

424
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:27,080
Even when I studied abroad in Italy, I went with two friends who were friends at the start

425
00:18:27,080 --> 00:18:28,080
and we sat together.

426
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:32,800
So it was the first time I was like, ask the people next to you if they would move or vice

427
00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:34,080
versa or whatever.

428
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:37,160
So he was the row in front of me, but to the right.

429
00:18:37,160 --> 00:18:42,200
So I could see his like through the aisle and he's texted like we're texting each other.

430
00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:44,480
Have you like, I was like, have you asked them?

431
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:45,480
What's the deal?

432
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:49,640
I have to do this before he take off and he was like, yeah, just ask them and I was watching

433
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:50,640
him.

434
00:18:50,640 --> 00:18:51,640
And he did not.

435
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:52,640
Yeah.

436
00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,920
And he didn't even lift his head to look at the people next to him, but was telling me

437
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:55,920
that he did.

438
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,200
And that was like, ooh, and that was going to the weekend.

439
00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,880
So I was like, that doesn't feel great.

440
00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:06,560
So we did Coachella and it was super fun.

441
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:07,560
He had friends there.

442
00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:08,640
We met up with friends there.

443
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:10,000
Like it was, it was a good experience.

444
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:15,280
I will not take that away, but he did tell me there that he had, he was afraid of commitment.

445
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,520
So I didn't believe that and I didn't care.

446
00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:18,520
Yeah.

447
00:19:18,520 --> 00:19:19,520
Of course.

448
00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:20,720
You heard it, but you didn't hear it.

449
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,720
Yeah.

450
00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,200
Cause I was still young, stupid and like you're at Coachella, you're having so much fun.

451
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:26,400
And he was really fun.

452
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:32,280
Like he, he did care about me until he didn't, which is when we got home and I wanted like

453
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:37,680
a little bit more serious and he was just really, really pulling away from that in all

454
00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:38,680
avenues.

455
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:42,320
If you remember, I can see myself standing in old seat fit at the window in the back

456
00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:48,440
by the door because he was like breaking plans with us that night.

457
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,320
And I was like, what do you mean you can't come?

458
00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,520
Like I want to talk to you cause I wanted to either end it or like figure out what's

459
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:54,520
going on.

460
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,920
And he was like, something came up and I was like, did you just something came up?

461
00:19:58,920 --> 00:19:59,920
Did you?

462
00:19:59,920 --> 00:20:00,920
What?

463
00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:04,480
I'm laughing now, but it was again, he was in our family.

464
00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,480
Like he knew Melody.

465
00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,400
Melody was born at the time and Lewis.

466
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:14,160
So like he had met the kids a bunch of times he's, he hung out at mom's house.

467
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,600
Lewis would call him bad if his name was Brad.

468
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:21,000
Like he had a name for his actual name and it was like so cute.

469
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Yeah.

470
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,000
And he gave me that.

471
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,000
Yeah.

472
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,000
So like he came to Disney on ice with us.

473
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:26,000
I know.

474
00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:30,440
The thing is these guys would become invested in our families because our family was super

475
00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:32,080
fun and we did things.

476
00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:36,480
And then so when they left, it was heartbreaking to all of us.

477
00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:37,480
Yeah.

478
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:38,880
Because so happy for you all.

479
00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:39,880
Yeah.

480
00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:40,880
I'm sad that you guys went through that.

481
00:20:40,880 --> 00:20:41,880
It was really hard for us.

482
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:44,680
Well, I will say Chip called mom.

483
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:45,680
Yes.

484
00:20:45,680 --> 00:20:46,680
That is one thing I will remember.

485
00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:48,720
Chip, we have to go back to Chip real quick.

486
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:55,840
Preppy New Yorker cheater called mom and broke up with mom and was like, I'm so sorry.

487
00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,480
And mom was like, why are you calling me?

488
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:02,040
And I remember her, I didn't know that happened and she told me she was like, Victoria, that's

489
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:03,040
a weird thing to do.

490
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:04,040
It is a weird thing to do.

491
00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:05,040
That's odd.

492
00:21:05,040 --> 00:21:08,160
He had to be liked and needed to feel bad about himself.

493
00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:09,160
Yes.

494
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,240
He did not want to feel bad about himself.

495
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,360
So he made up lies.

496
00:21:12,360 --> 00:21:15,560
Then there was Terrell and Terrell's name did not change.

497
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,360
Terrell, it was Terrell because Terrell is a great guy.

498
00:21:18,360 --> 00:21:19,840
We love Terrell.

499
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,160
And I was so sad about Terrell.

500
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,600
Terrell was separating from a marriage.

501
00:21:25,600 --> 00:21:30,760
He had two kids and it was just bad timing and he didn't know what he could do or manage

502
00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:34,720
with kids and a girlfriend and what he really wanted.

503
00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,120
And I was just turning 30.

504
00:21:37,120 --> 00:21:39,360
It was like, it wasn't good timing.

505
00:21:39,360 --> 00:21:40,360
It just wasn't right.

506
00:21:40,360 --> 00:21:42,560
It wasn't good timing, but he was the nicest human.

507
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,080
But I loved Terrell.

508
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,760
Terrell was a real and he was beautiful.

509
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:47,920
Yes, he was.

510
00:21:47,920 --> 00:21:50,120
Mom wasn't super happy because he had two kids.

511
00:21:50,120 --> 00:21:51,120
Yes, I know.

512
00:21:51,120 --> 00:21:57,840
When I told mom that I met a guy that was really, really, really genuinely a nice guy,

513
00:21:57,840 --> 00:21:59,640
and then I said he has two kids.

514
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:00,640
She went, run away.

515
00:22:00,640 --> 00:22:04,200
Those were the words and she said, run away.

516
00:22:04,200 --> 00:22:07,600
And I said, what? and she was like, run.

517
00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:08,920
You'll never be a priority.

518
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:10,680
You'll never be a priority.

519
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:11,680
And that's true.

520
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,000
I mean, that's true.

521
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,000
It's true.

522
00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:17,400
If you have children, they should be your priority no matter what phase you're in.

523
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,560
But I don't think that necessarily means it would have been a bad relationship if he

524
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,440
could have given whatever he could have given.

525
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,640
And at the time, it just, it was just bad timing.

526
00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:25,640
He was super hot.

527
00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:27,760
Yeah, he was a beautiful man.

528
00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:30,120
And he was kinder than he was beautiful.

529
00:22:30,120 --> 00:22:31,120
So that was even better.

530
00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:32,120
I'll never forget.

531
00:22:32,120 --> 00:22:33,120
We went to R&B night.

532
00:22:33,120 --> 00:22:37,600
I didn't know any of the words, but I danced my little heart out.

533
00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:39,840
It was so fun.

534
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:45,240
And this next not real relationship, but this next guy, Dustin, was all bumble.

535
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:46,240
Dustin.

536
00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:47,880
It was really bumble from the way out.

537
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:54,480
I did hinge, but I never really met anybody normal that I could, I could bear talking

538
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:55,480
to for a while.

539
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,240
Dustin was a not real relationship.

540
00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:58,240
Yeah.

541
00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:02,480
Now, Dustin was what you called an F boy to the nth degree.

542
00:23:02,480 --> 00:23:06,000
And I won't stay too long on Dustin because Dustin wasn't an actual relationship.

543
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,960
Dustin was an experience.

544
00:23:07,960 --> 00:23:09,120
I had a relationship with Dustin.

545
00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:16,680
I had a relationship because Carly's bathroom got renovated by Dustin and his crew of misfits.

546
00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:19,600
But yeah, it turned out Dustin also had a full time girlfriend.

547
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,640
And the only story I will give about Dustin that will really represent, I think, who he

548
00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:29,600
was was that when I found out about all of this, which was before I thought on the stairs

549
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:30,600
Christmas 2020.

550
00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,560
So that's where we are in the grand scheme of like the years we've made it to 2020.

551
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:40,200
He would call his mom and ask his mom to change the location on the phone that he had in his

552
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:43,280
room because he lived with his mom at the time.

553
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:46,200
And his girlfriend would check that location.

554
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:51,640
So it would show that it was at that house and not in Springfield, Pennsylvania or Swathmore.

555
00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:53,480
I lived in Swathmore at the time.

556
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,280
And I was like, oh, you're like not a good person.

557
00:23:56,280 --> 00:23:57,280
Yeah.

558
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,560
Like you're a really bad person.

559
00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:03,320
But also he was around our family a lot because he was a charmer.

560
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,560
Oh, he was an F-boy to the nth degree.

561
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:10,920
He loved, I can't wait for you to explain that to our aunt Vicki when she texts us,

562
00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:12,720
listening to this episode, asking what that is.

563
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,200
That's perfect.

564
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:15,200
I will tell her.

565
00:24:15,200 --> 00:24:17,880
Vicki, I got you.

566
00:24:17,880 --> 00:24:21,040
But he was with our family all the time.

567
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,600
And Victoria one night literally said, don't learn his name.

568
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,640
He will not be around for much longer.

569
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,840
It was our birthday outing.

570
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:29,840
Don't learn his name.

571
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:30,840
He won't be around.

572
00:24:30,840 --> 00:24:31,840
Yeah.

573
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:35,000
He randomly texted me like last year, last summer, and I never responded.

574
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:39,680
Well, so they did their little breakup from their non-relationship relationship.

575
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,280
It wasn't even anything to break up with.

576
00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,560
And I was like, Victoria, he's doing our bathroom.

577
00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:45,560
Can he still do our bathroom?

578
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,080
Because he was our cheapest estimate.

579
00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:48,080
Yes.

580
00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:52,080
Because I was in the hospital recovering from an injury and he would text me being like,

581
00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:53,640
yo, I heard you're broken.

582
00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,800
Sucks, dude.

583
00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:58,480
And I was high on fentanyl.

584
00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:01,120
And I was like, what is happening, Dustin?

585
00:25:01,120 --> 00:25:03,560
And he was like, met this chick, might go skiing.

586
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:04,560
What do you think?

587
00:25:04,560 --> 00:25:05,560
No.

588
00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:06,560
Like that was Dustin.

589
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:08,360
He was trying to be your friend afterwards.

590
00:25:08,360 --> 00:25:15,440
But so Victoria had to see him every single day for 10 weeks while he renovated our bathroom.

591
00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:17,040
And she was like, is Dustin there?

592
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,960
I'm like, Dustin's always here.

593
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:20,080
She's like, I'll come in.

594
00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:21,440
I made him a lot of sandwiches.

595
00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:22,440
Yeah.

596
00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:24,840
He owns me a lot of bread.

597
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:28,440
And then we've made it to Gunther.

598
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:29,440
Gunther.

599
00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:32,000
What a name this Gunther.

600
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:34,600
Gunther was also bumble.

601
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:36,760
Gunther was the most recent.

602
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:37,760
We all know Gunther.

603
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:38,880
We all know the Gunther.

604
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,320
And I found a quote.

605
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:42,000
So I was looking, I'm not going to lie to you all.

606
00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:44,520
I was looking through Instagram to find the timelines.

607
00:25:44,520 --> 00:25:48,560
I have no recollection of time of order of these people or whatever.

608
00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:53,280
And this is the perfect way to describe Gunther.

609
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:57,520
Even as when they blame you for your reaction to their disrespect.

610
00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:58,520
That was Gunther.

611
00:25:58,520 --> 00:25:59,520
Yeah.

612
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:00,520
In a nutshell.

613
00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:01,520
In a nutshell.

614
00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,320
So all things aside, it was whirlwind.

615
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:06,680
He loved bombing from the start and I didn't know what love bombing was until I got into

616
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,240
therapy after Gunther.

617
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:10,040
But that's what it was at the start.

618
00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,600
Intense, crazy whirlwind of like excitement and oh my gosh.

619
00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:15,520
And I'm not going to lie to you.

620
00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:17,800
I had that, oh, this is it.

621
00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:19,280
This is the guy.

622
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,680
Because and I stick by that, I'm not going to regret that I felt that.

623
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:23,880
That's how I felt.

624
00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:28,360
And it was the first time I remember when he rolled up to pick me up off of my family

625
00:26:28,360 --> 00:26:30,920
vacation down the shore.

626
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,360
I remember getting in the car being like, oh, he feels very light.

627
00:26:34,360 --> 00:26:36,480
Like I don't feel real dark around him.

628
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,960
And that was rare for me to feel with any prospect.

629
00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:41,960
So I was, yeah.

630
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,280
Well, he couldn't have been the darkest person ever.

631
00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:45,280
Darkest.

632
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,680
But listen, we loved him.

633
00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,760
My kids, all three of my kids loved him.

634
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,680
But they didn't know him.

635
00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:54,680
We didn't know him.

636
00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:55,680
We didn't know him.

637
00:26:55,680 --> 00:26:56,680
Yeah.

638
00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:57,680
We didn't know the real Gunther.

639
00:26:57,680 --> 00:27:03,080
Now, he has a lot of unhealed trauma from childhood that I don't think he will ever

640
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,360
dive into and help himself with.

641
00:27:05,360 --> 00:27:07,120
I think this is a pattern for him.

642
00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:10,000
And I think he's probably doing it to the girl right now that he's with.

643
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:11,000
But the kids loved him.

644
00:27:11,000 --> 00:27:14,840
He moved in to the house with me because I wasn't living in my apartment and I was living

645
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,600
at mom's and he moved in.

646
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:19,440
All of this was within eight months.

647
00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:20,440
Yes.

648
00:27:20,440 --> 00:27:24,800
He moved in and he became a part of the house.

649
00:27:24,800 --> 00:27:29,600
He became like when the kids got home from school, let's go see Gunther.

650
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:31,520
Which was also a part of the withdrawal.

651
00:27:31,520 --> 00:27:38,640
So when the family stuff started really becoming real is when he started like a dissociative

652
00:27:38,640 --> 00:27:43,080
episode indefinitely of withdrawing, not wanting to talk, didn't want to help with

653
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:50,120
the house, kind of needed an outlet to try to function of understanding that like this

654
00:27:50,120 --> 00:27:54,800
was life but also loved it and also was happy with it and told me all these stories and

655
00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:59,840
every time I would bring up how I felt, it was somehow an attack on him.

656
00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:04,160
So the conflict that we had was toxic and it wasn't great because nobody was listening

657
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:08,480
to each other because it was all emotional and feelings based and yada yada yada.

658
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,560
The fun part of this story.

659
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:11,560
Is there a fun part?

660
00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,000
Because I was there the whole time.

661
00:28:14,000 --> 00:28:15,880
I was literally there.

662
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:16,880
I don't remember it.

663
00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,160
It was like a few times in quotations, well, it was awesome though until it wasn't.

664
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:24,320
It was awesome and little did you guys know what I was actually going through until the

665
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,800
end because I was dealing with it, tried to deal with it by myself.

666
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,400
Well, I think we knew.

667
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,560
You knew he withdrew but you didn't know the conversation like the fights we were having

668
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:38,000
and the all out all night long crazy battles and him driving away in the middle of the

669
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,320
night to go sleep in his car, which I don't actually think was true.

670
00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,400
I think he went to somebody else's house.

671
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:47,760
So if we broke up in April, we talked, we continued to talk because the goal was to

672
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:51,840
individually work on ourselves in the hopes that it would come back together.

673
00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,520
And if it didn't, it didn't, but we firmly believed that it would because we were going

674
00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:55,520
to do the work.

675
00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,760
So I was the only one that did the work on myself.

676
00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:58,880
I'm still doing it.

677
00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:03,600
I'm very happy for him or that he existed and happened because it kind of pulled me

678
00:29:03,600 --> 00:29:05,440
into where I am now.

679
00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:08,640
So I won't, all of these relationships, I'm not going to regret.

680
00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:10,680
I'm going to stop you right there real quick.

681
00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:16,320
I don't think you would have gotten into yoga had you been with him because he would have

682
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:17,520
taken up so much of your time.

683
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:22,120
You wouldn't have felt like you could have taken that time for you to do yoga.

684
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:24,080
I don't think you would have gotten into it at all.

685
00:29:24,080 --> 00:29:25,240
And I mean, you love it.

686
00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:26,240
I agree.

687
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:27,240
I absolutely agree.

688
00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,360
And I would call him after yoga and he'd be like, how was it?

689
00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,160
Those conversations stopped.

690
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,600
He stopped asking and like things started to kind of trickle off because I was asking

691
00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,520
him what he was doing to help himself.

692
00:29:38,520 --> 00:29:41,080
And the answer was always, don't worry about him.

693
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:42,080
I'm working on it.

694
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:43,080
I'm working on it.

695
00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:47,560
What he was actually working on while he was telling me what to do on how to work on myself

696
00:29:47,560 --> 00:29:51,480
was that he had met somebody else and I had found Bumble Profile.

697
00:29:51,480 --> 00:29:53,800
So it was like a whole hot mess of things.

698
00:29:53,800 --> 00:30:01,520
I did my Murdershire Road investigation and I went on the Instagram of the only source

699
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:07,160
that he hasn't blocked because he has since blocked me and Carly and Seafit and friends

700
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,160
and anybody else that he was connected with with me.

701
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:16,000
But I found a loophole and I found in and he as of February, we stopped talking in December.

702
00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:20,120
As of February, he was doing a road trip with a girl who was claiming that it was the love

703
00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:21,320
of her life.

704
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:27,800
So I don't really know the timeline, but manipulation is the number one, I think.

705
00:30:27,800 --> 00:30:29,640
I've met some really good liars.

706
00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,600
You, yeah, you really good liars.

707
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:34,360
I can't even explain it.

708
00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:39,160
It's like they find you and you find them and then it's good for a while and then it's

709
00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:41,320
not good for a really long time.

710
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:42,920
But Victoria is the type of person.

711
00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:44,920
I just said this to somebody the other day.

712
00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:46,600
She goes down with the ship.

713
00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:49,560
Victoria is loyal till the very end.

714
00:30:49,560 --> 00:30:51,480
You said it a couple months ago on the episode.

715
00:30:51,480 --> 00:30:52,480
Oh yeah.

716
00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,360
But she is.

717
00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:58,920
So like when things are going bad, she doesn't jump ship like a lot of people would like

718
00:30:58,920 --> 00:31:00,400
these guys do.

719
00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:02,000
She is like, no, we're going to fix this.

720
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:03,000
We're going to work through.

721
00:31:03,000 --> 00:31:04,000
That's what you do.

722
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:09,160
You fix it, but almost to a fault because she's like it's some, a lot of them are unfixable.

723
00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:16,200
And the other person needs to meet her halfway and Victoria is the, you know, the pilot.

724
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,560
No, the captain of the Titanic.

725
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:20,560
No, the pilot.

726
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:22,560
Oh, I don't want that title.

727
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:23,560
I don't know.

728
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,160
No, no, no, it's a good thing.

729
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:29,480
You go, you want to take care of that ship and you're not going to jump.

730
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:33,640
And you want to fix it so badly that when it's going badly, you're like, well, then

731
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:37,800
I'm going to go down with it because we're, we're all in this together, but the other

732
00:31:37,800 --> 00:31:40,320
one is not meeting you 50%.

733
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:41,320
There's no reciprocity.

734
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:45,080
I definitely feel like I'm Jack and there's room on the door.

735
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:46,080
There's room.

736
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:47,800
There's freaking room on the door.

737
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:48,800
Just let me on.

738
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:52,280
I won't drown, but nobody lets me on.

739
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:58,640
So those are all of the significant milestone relationships that I've had.

740
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,080
And it's been a fun ride.

741
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:04,080
There's some fun moments between 2013 and 2017.

742
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:09,880
So Chip and Timmy, there was a big, that was, Chip was 2013.

743
00:32:09,880 --> 00:32:14,520
Timmy was 2016, 2017, but there was a guy that I don't have a name for.

744
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:15,800
I just called him Small Hands.

745
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:20,600
And he was the first date that I went on in this timeframe between 2013 and 2017.

746
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:25,760
I met him at Iron Hill and media and we had talked on, you know, probably match.com or

747
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:26,760
whatever.

748
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:27,760
I don't know.

749
00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,200
I met him and we sat down and it was the first mistake I made that we were doing dinner.

750
00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:33,480
We did drinks, we did appetizers, we did dinner.

751
00:32:33,480 --> 00:32:34,480
Well, you learned.

752
00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:39,240
I never did this again after Small Hands because we stopped calling him Small Hands.

753
00:32:39,240 --> 00:32:40,920
Because this is what happened.

754
00:32:40,920 --> 00:32:42,240
We sat down at the table.

755
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:46,040
We ordered, you know, the drinks first and an appetizer.

756
00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:50,920
So I was already locked in an appetizer and we sat down and he was perfectly normal.

757
00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,800
Like he was exactly what his picture was.

758
00:32:52,800 --> 00:32:53,920
It was no big deal.

759
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,720
And he was like, all right, I got to bring it up at the start.

760
00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:56,880
I just got to let you know.

761
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,840
They call me Small Hands and he put his hands on the table and he was like, because my hands

762
00:33:00,840 --> 00:33:01,840
are really small.

763
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:02,840
Oh my gosh.

764
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:04,880
And his hands were really small.

765
00:33:04,880 --> 00:33:09,120
His hands were like, when you hold those little plastic ones in the game, like his

766
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:10,400
hands were really small.

767
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:11,400
He brought that up.

768
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:15,320
It was the first thing and then I couldn't, I didn't know what to do.

769
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:20,360
Like first of all, I didn't care, but he was so dead set on making this the focal point

770
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:24,320
of the entire night that I was like, I'm not into this.

771
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,600
And he was so insecure about it that he had to keep bringing it up.

772
00:33:27,600 --> 00:33:28,600
Yeah.

773
00:33:28,600 --> 00:33:31,760
And I was like, oh my gosh, I have to wait for an appetizer.

774
00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,240
Then there was Fred.

775
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:34,240
You don't remember Fred?

776
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:35,960
Oh my God, Fred on the beach.

777
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:36,960
Fred on the beach.

778
00:33:36,960 --> 00:33:37,960
Fred on the beach.

779
00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:41,880
Fred was a comic book artist and he was kind of like Superman.

780
00:33:41,880 --> 00:33:42,880
He was built.

781
00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:43,880
Yeah.

782
00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:46,160
But he was a huge nerd and I like really liked that.

783
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:47,160
He was cool.

784
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:52,160
But he invited himself down to the beach on my family vacation and I didn't know how

785
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,160
to.

786
00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,520
I was like, can we just see this theme?

787
00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:00,920
The only time Victoria has time to date is when we're on vacation for two weeks.

788
00:34:00,920 --> 00:34:04,880
She has no other time that all these guys, she's just like, listen, I have two weeks

789
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,320
down the shore and that is it.

790
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:11,360
So if you can't find a date, you can come meet my family on our first date.

791
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:12,880
No, Fred wasn't a first date.

792
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:16,320
It was like a second date and he came into the beach and I made sure we beached on a

793
00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:18,920
different beach than the family because I didn't want to deal with that.

794
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,680
I was 30 of us didn't know if I liked him yet.

795
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:28,360
He lived in the garage apartment above his family's house garage and I couldn't get him

796
00:34:28,360 --> 00:34:32,920
to leave and he came and he got changed in the house and oh my God, there was really

797
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:33,920
nothing wrong.

798
00:34:33,920 --> 00:34:38,000
I just wasn't into it and I couldn't get him to walk by you guys on the beach chair to

799
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,640
be like, hey, yeah, you good.

800
00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:42,960
You coming back to the family is Fred leaving.

801
00:34:42,960 --> 00:34:43,960
Yeah.

802
00:34:43,960 --> 00:34:48,640
Then there was Joab and I'm calling him Joab because it was a typo on his profile.

803
00:34:48,640 --> 00:34:51,920
I think it was Jacob or something, but I thought, do you remember?

804
00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:54,880
I was like, I'm going out with this guy for the first time, but I think he's like a Mormon

805
00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,240
because his name was Joab and I thought it was biblical, but he typoed it and he couldn't

806
00:34:58,240 --> 00:35:01,760
fix it.

807
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:02,760
Strike number one.

808
00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:03,760
Strike number one.

809
00:35:03,760 --> 00:35:06,840
So the main thing, I think you'll remember this, he had mental health issues.

810
00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:07,840
Yes, I do.

811
00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,840
And he was very open about it and it was fine for me, but he was like, you're welcome to

812
00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:13,720
ask me any questions.

813
00:35:13,720 --> 00:35:14,720
And I was like, oh, okay.

814
00:35:14,720 --> 00:35:18,600
And it was really the first time I think I heard the word anxiety and some sort of

815
00:35:18,600 --> 00:35:20,600
depression and all these things.

816
00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:22,040
And I was like, oh, cool.

817
00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:23,440
So we did a second date.

818
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,080
I think we even did a third date and I would ask questions.

819
00:35:26,080 --> 00:35:28,600
And by the third date, he was like, you're aggressive.

820
00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:29,600
I remember.

821
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,800
And he was attacking me because I was asking questions that he openly was telling me I

822
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:35,000
could.

823
00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:43,160
But he started, he twisted it into this defensive mode of telling me how horrible I was.

824
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,600
And I was like, yeah, I don't think we're going to meet again.

825
00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:48,240
I think we're good.

826
00:35:48,240 --> 00:35:49,240
I'm good.

827
00:35:49,240 --> 00:35:54,760
And he ended up contacting me like a year later when I went back online and I didn't

828
00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:55,760
even respond.

829
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:57,760
I didn't even respond.

830
00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,960
Then there was Cameron, the pilot, the Australian pilot.

831
00:36:01,960 --> 00:36:02,960
I remember him.

832
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:04,920
This was a fun time.

833
00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:05,920
I was into this guy.

834
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:13,520
Yeah, because he, you know, Hawaii and I gave him my best Australian accent and he was like,

835
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:14,920
wow, that was really horrible.

836
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:18,360
And that's what he sound like from Delco.

837
00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,800
I was like, what do you mean?

838
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,240
But he was funny, you know, had an accent, which is great.

839
00:36:23,240 --> 00:36:24,480
And he was really cute.

840
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,440
But he faked COVID.

841
00:36:27,440 --> 00:36:32,520
He faked COVID to get out of coming to another date or scheduling something.

842
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:33,880
You did a couple dates.

843
00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,960
We did, we did like three or four.

844
00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:40,520
He was at my condo and we watched SleeBag, which was really funny.

845
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,320
And he was shocked that I thought that was funny because American humor is not the same

846
00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:45,320
as Australian humor.

847
00:36:45,320 --> 00:36:51,040
But yeah, he just turned into like every other, yeah.

848
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,160
There was an experience that I had in New York City.

849
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,120
I had two dates in one day.

850
00:36:55,120 --> 00:36:56,120
I remember this.

851
00:36:56,120 --> 00:36:57,120
You baller.

852
00:36:57,120 --> 00:36:59,120
I'll never forget this.

853
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,840
All I have for their names is guy number one and guy number two.

854
00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:09,560
But guy number one, I met Midtown somewhere and I had like heels on when, you know, you

855
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,920
would get dressed up and he made me walk a mile and a half.

856
00:37:13,920 --> 00:37:17,800
We walked a mile and a half to the food destination.

857
00:37:17,800 --> 00:37:19,080
Oh, God.

858
00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:23,720
And I was so turned off by him because he was like kind of mean.

859
00:37:23,720 --> 00:37:28,720
He was like that typical New Yorker mean, but he wasn't even from New York.

860
00:37:28,720 --> 00:37:30,320
I can't remember anything else about him.

861
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:32,560
And I remember being like, I'm just gonna get drinks.

862
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:33,560
Yeah.

863
00:37:33,560 --> 00:37:36,320
Because my feet are bleeding.

864
00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:38,520
And they were, they were actually bleeding.

865
00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:43,080
And I ruined my suede heels that I loved and I wasn't into it.

866
00:37:43,080 --> 00:37:44,840
So I went home and changed my shoes.

867
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:45,840
I think I put flats on.

868
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:46,840
I was like screw guy number two.

869
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:47,840
I don't even care.

870
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:50,640
I'm putting on Bobo's.

871
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:56,640
And I met him downtown at like an open kind of what they have in Philly with a love chair,

872
00:37:56,640 --> 00:37:58,440
a love park thing.

873
00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:03,880
They had like an open thing that I never experienced in New York outside and it was to get beers.

874
00:38:03,880 --> 00:38:06,400
And he was like a bro and I was like, oh, I'm never gonna see you again, but this is

875
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:07,400
nice.

876
00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:08,400
This is fun.

877
00:38:08,400 --> 00:38:10,840
And I'll never forget getting myself back to my apartment and being like, no one's feeding

878
00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:11,840
me.

879
00:38:11,840 --> 00:38:12,840
No.

880
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:13,840
I'm drunk.

881
00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:17,320
I had four, two glasses of wine and two beers.

882
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,000
Like I don't like either of these guys.

883
00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,040
I have my feet are bleeding and I gotta go home.

884
00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:22,040
Like what is happening?

885
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:23,760
I remember being so fed up with that.

886
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:24,760
We were in like Chinatown.

887
00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:27,960
We were so far downtown from where I live.

888
00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:33,120
And then the last little story that I have who I didn't give a name, but I guess I should

889
00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:38,560
give me like a preppy nautical guy name like Bo.

890
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:39,560
Bo.

891
00:38:39,560 --> 00:38:43,840
He's a Delco guy who thinks he's Shep from Southern Charm.

892
00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:44,840
Yes.

893
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:51,480
And I originally met Bo in 2015 via cousins of mine and I was still living in New York.

894
00:38:51,480 --> 00:38:55,240
So we talked for like three weeks straight before I even came home at Christmas to like

895
00:38:55,240 --> 00:38:56,320
meet him.

896
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,840
And we dated for like a little, how many dates can you put into like a Christmas vacation

897
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:02,120
time?

898
00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:05,720
And the first one, just like normal, the first date was like so fun.

899
00:39:05,720 --> 00:39:10,800
There, wind and dined, laughed, too many hours sitting at the table, waitress hates

900
00:39:10,800 --> 00:39:12,000
you, yada, yada.

901
00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:18,000
And then it never left from his couch in his roommate and just like getting stoned at 35.

902
00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:19,000
And I was younger.

903
00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,080
And I was like, yeah, this is not, I'm leaving.

904
00:39:22,080 --> 00:39:24,800
I remember I got up and I was like, I'm good.

905
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:27,600
Like I don't, yeah, I don't want to do this.

906
00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:29,600
But it's not like this was your third date.

907
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:31,900
You had gone to his family's house.

908
00:39:31,900 --> 00:39:34,840
You had to the pool.

909
00:39:34,840 --> 00:39:35,840
Just later.

910
00:39:35,840 --> 00:39:38,640
So I remet Bo in 2021.

911
00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:39,640
Yes, you're right.

912
00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:41,280
So that was 2015.

913
00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:46,560
Said bye, had some, you know, other relationship experiences.

914
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:50,000
And then again in 2021, we reconnected.

915
00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,120
This is why I don't talk to anybody again.

916
00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:55,100
When you die from my life, you die.

917
00:39:55,100 --> 00:39:58,160
And I tried with Gunther to be like, no, I'm going to do it differently.

918
00:39:58,160 --> 00:40:01,360
I'm not going to try to forget and black everything out and move on.

919
00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:02,360
Like this is okay.

920
00:40:02,360 --> 00:40:03,880
This is, you know, healthy and normal.

921
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:04,880
Now you die.

922
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:05,880
Goodbye.

923
00:40:05,880 --> 00:40:08,000
Bo 2021, nothing changed.

924
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,920
And he was almost 40 now.

925
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,720
And it was again, reconnecting, super fun.

926
00:40:13,720 --> 00:40:16,680
It was at quotations, old quotations in media.

927
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:20,240
And then he just wanted to like get high and get stoned on his couch in the same apartment

928
00:40:20,240 --> 00:40:22,720
that he lived in, how five years earlier.

929
00:40:22,720 --> 00:40:24,880
And I did go to his family beach house.

930
00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:25,920
I drove down there.

931
00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:27,160
I brought my own food.

932
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,960
Cause you were like, I do not trust these guys to feed me.

933
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:30,960
He didn't feed me.

934
00:40:30,960 --> 00:40:31,960
I asked him for pretzels.

935
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:32,960
Like you got pretzels or something.

936
00:40:32,960 --> 00:40:35,680
Like you're giving me beer, but like I need a pretzel.

937
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,240
I got to drive home.

938
00:40:37,240 --> 00:40:40,320
And I, he really ended that poorly actually.

939
00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:44,920
I really poorly that it was a judge of character.

940
00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:45,920
I hope he's doing well.

941
00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:47,200
I hope everything's well, but he would swipe.

942
00:40:47,200 --> 00:40:48,680
He was like texting on, I'll never forget.

943
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:50,600
I was sitting on his couch.

944
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:54,840
He was sick and he was texting with his mom and his mom sending him girls, pictures of

945
00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:58,240
girls of family, friends that like, Hey, what about this girl?

946
00:40:58,240 --> 00:40:59,240
And I'm sitting right there.

947
00:40:59,240 --> 00:41:00,760
I was like, what am I doing?

948
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:01,760
This is 2020.

949
00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:03,960
I just broke a rib and a lung.

950
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:04,960
I don't want to be here.

951
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:05,960
Yeah.

952
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,200
We're going to play a little game.

953
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:08,200
Cool.

954
00:41:08,200 --> 00:41:09,440
It's called don't hate me.

955
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:10,440
Oh God.

956
00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:11,440
Speed date me.

957
00:41:11,440 --> 00:41:13,760
Why are you going to speed date with Victoria?

958
00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:15,520
Why do you have cards in your hands?

959
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:17,200
Cause I'm going to ask you questions.

960
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:18,200
Oh my God.

961
00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:19,600
And we're going to speed date and speed dating.

962
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:26,120
You have to do things really fast because then you got to move on to the next person.

963
00:41:26,120 --> 00:41:27,120
I declined.

964
00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:28,120
We want to do all these.

965
00:41:28,120 --> 00:41:29,120
Oh, that's cute.

966
00:41:29,120 --> 00:41:30,120
Okay.

967
00:41:30,120 --> 00:41:34,200
What is one new thing you'd like to try?

968
00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:38,640
Sleeping.

969
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,360
What does being a good person mean to you?

970
00:41:41,360 --> 00:41:47,040
Reciprocity, honesty and basic kindness.

971
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:49,000
Well, those are the hard questions.

972
00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,600
Now we're going to get to the fun questions.

973
00:41:50,600 --> 00:41:51,600
Sweet.

974
00:41:51,600 --> 00:41:55,120
Who are three people you want on your team if there was a zombie apocalypse?

975
00:41:55,120 --> 00:41:57,120
Mike Bouter.

976
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:58,120
He's like our uncle.

977
00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:04,760
He's going to kill you for saying that.

978
00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:05,760
The rock.

979
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:06,760
Yes.

980
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:09,480
Dwayne The Rock Johnson.

981
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:11,160
Matt Reif because he's funny.

982
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:13,880
He's a comedian and if I'm going to die, I might as well laugh.

983
00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:14,880
Okay.

984
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:15,880
I get you after that question.

985
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:16,880
That was a good one.

986
00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:17,880
What would your rap name be?

987
00:42:17,880 --> 00:42:20,200
I'm kind of disgusted right now.

988
00:42:20,200 --> 00:42:21,200
What would my rap?

989
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:23,120
What would your rap name be?

990
00:42:23,120 --> 00:42:30,000
I can't do Lil Weezy because he exists but I weaselot, you know?

991
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:33,600
Lil therapy.

992
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:34,600
Lil boundaries.

993
00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:36,600
Lil boundaries.

994
00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:41,120
Lil boundaries.

995
00:42:41,120 --> 00:42:43,120
Who would play you in a movie?

996
00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:44,800
I don't know.

997
00:42:44,800 --> 00:42:45,800
Hermione Granger.

998
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:46,800
Yes, perfect.

999
00:42:46,800 --> 00:42:47,800
Or Julia Roberts.

1000
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:48,800
Oh.

1001
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:49,800
Very different.

1002
00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:50,800
I don't know.

1003
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:51,800
My favorite actresses.

1004
00:42:51,800 --> 00:42:52,800
I don't know.

1005
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:56,360
I would have to have a dream job if money didn't matter.

1006
00:42:56,360 --> 00:42:58,960
If money didn't matter, see Fit Fitness.

1007
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:04,400
I would walk my dog for a living and money didn't matter, nothing.

1008
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,420
What season fits your personality?

1009
00:43:06,420 --> 00:43:08,620
I'd be a landscaper in a gardener actually.

1010
00:43:08,620 --> 00:43:09,620
We moved on.

1011
00:43:09,620 --> 00:43:11,120
This is speed dating.

1012
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:12,120
God damn it.

1013
00:43:12,120 --> 00:43:13,480
I've never done speed dating.

1014
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:14,480
Which landscaper?

1015
00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:15,480
Great.

1016
00:43:15,480 --> 00:43:16,880
Which season fits your personality?

1017
00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:17,880
You're aggressive.

1018
00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:19,360
Fall, autumn.

1019
00:43:19,360 --> 00:43:20,360
Okay.

1020
00:43:20,360 --> 00:43:22,700
One answer is suffice.

1021
00:43:22,700 --> 00:43:27,220
Would you rather date someone you met online or go on a blind date?

1022
00:43:27,220 --> 00:43:28,220
No.

1023
00:43:28,220 --> 00:43:29,220
Okay.

1024
00:43:29,220 --> 00:43:32,620
Would you rather date someone you love or date someone who loves you?

1025
00:43:32,620 --> 00:43:33,620
No.

1026
00:43:33,620 --> 00:43:34,620
Okay.

1027
00:43:34,620 --> 00:43:38,940
Would you rather be the funniest or smartest person in the room?

1028
00:43:38,940 --> 00:43:39,940
Funniest.

1029
00:43:39,940 --> 00:43:40,940
Funniest.

1030
00:43:40,940 --> 00:43:41,940
Yeah.

1031
00:43:41,940 --> 00:43:42,940
We hate smart.

1032
00:43:42,940 --> 00:43:43,940
Yeah.

1033
00:43:43,940 --> 00:43:46,180
Would you rather have a rewind or pause button in life?

1034
00:43:46,180 --> 00:43:47,180
Pause.

1035
00:43:47,180 --> 00:43:48,180
Pause.

1036
00:43:48,180 --> 00:43:49,180
Yeah.

1037
00:43:49,180 --> 00:43:50,180
That sounds good.

1038
00:43:50,180 --> 00:43:51,900
Who's the worst boss you've ever had?

1039
00:43:51,900 --> 00:43:52,900
I'm not the boss.

1040
00:43:52,900 --> 00:43:54,220
That's the part.

1041
00:43:54,220 --> 00:43:59,740
What's the first concert you ever went to?

1042
00:43:59,740 --> 00:44:00,740
The Monkeys.

1043
00:44:00,740 --> 00:44:04,540
What's the worst job you've ever had?

1044
00:44:04,540 --> 00:44:07,700
Carly is my boss.

1045
00:44:07,700 --> 00:44:08,700
So true.

1046
00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:10,840
Thanks for letting me go away this weekend.

1047
00:44:10,840 --> 00:44:16,340
What show on Netflix did you binge watch embarrassingly fast?

1048
00:44:16,340 --> 00:44:17,340
The Righteous Jeff Stoice.

1049
00:44:17,340 --> 00:44:18,340
Oh my God.

1050
00:44:18,340 --> 00:44:19,340
It's so good.

1051
00:44:19,340 --> 00:44:20,340
So good.

1052
00:44:20,340 --> 00:44:21,340
Last question.

1053
00:44:21,340 --> 00:44:22,340
What's your favorite seafood sister?

1054
00:44:22,340 --> 00:44:23,340
Pepper.

1055
00:44:23,340 --> 00:44:32,540
That was the most important one.

1056
00:44:32,540 --> 00:44:35,060
Is that what I have to ask when I go out on a date?

1057
00:44:35,060 --> 00:44:36,060
Yes.

1058
00:44:36,060 --> 00:44:37,620
I'm not going to anytime soon.

1059
00:44:37,620 --> 00:44:38,620
Guess what?

1060
00:44:38,620 --> 00:44:39,620
I'm single.

1061
00:44:39,620 --> 00:44:40,620
You're single.

1062
00:44:40,620 --> 00:44:41,620
You won.

1063
00:44:41,620 --> 00:44:43,620
This podcast doesn't help that.

1064
00:44:43,620 --> 00:44:45,620
It really doesn't help that.

1065
00:44:45,620 --> 00:44:50,620
Now I'm out there even more for people to be like, oh, I'm going to be single.

1066
00:44:50,620 --> 00:44:52,220
People will be like, oh, I don't know you.

1067
00:44:52,220 --> 00:44:53,420
Oh, let me search your name.

1068
00:44:53,420 --> 00:44:54,820
Oh, let me listen to her.

1069
00:44:54,820 --> 00:45:00,500
Wait, the best part is that I am an open book and she is super private and I love this

1070
00:45:00,500 --> 00:45:02,180
episode for that reason.

1071
00:45:02,180 --> 00:45:06,260
And I feel like after this, you're going to therapy.

1072
00:45:06,260 --> 00:45:07,980
I am at one o'clock today.

1073
00:45:07,980 --> 00:45:12,500
Well, you gave our real extras a lot to think about today.

1074
00:45:12,500 --> 00:45:18,380
Honestly, listen, if you're young, if you're in the dating scene, this can happen anywhere.

1075
00:45:18,380 --> 00:45:26,340
Like online dating isn't the reason why I've met these people, these humans of sorts.

1076
00:45:26,340 --> 00:45:33,540
And get yourself out there, do your own screening or vetting and just go with what feels right.

1077
00:45:33,540 --> 00:45:37,420
However, I will say all of these felt right in the beginning and they turned out to be

1078
00:45:37,420 --> 00:45:39,660
horrible, not great relationship people.

1079
00:45:39,660 --> 00:45:44,460
I won't say they're not bad humans or they're not good humans, but they weren't right for

1080
00:45:44,460 --> 00:45:45,860
relationship at the time.

1081
00:45:45,860 --> 00:45:51,020
So I don't know, go with your gut, but like, don't.

1082
00:45:51,020 --> 00:45:55,540
I have no relationship or dating advice other than you can't regret anything.

1083
00:45:55,540 --> 00:46:00,780
You have to just move on, move forward and take whatever that lesson was.

1084
00:46:00,780 --> 00:46:04,380
Half the time you don't know what the lesson is until it's way too late and it's so far

1085
00:46:04,380 --> 00:46:05,380
down the line.

1086
00:46:05,380 --> 00:46:08,660
It gives you that ah-ha of like, oh right, that was their purpose in my story.

1087
00:46:08,660 --> 00:46:09,660
Got it.

1088
00:46:09,660 --> 00:46:10,660
Yeah.

1089
00:46:10,660 --> 00:46:11,660
So cool.

1090
00:46:11,660 --> 00:46:15,420
Well, I promised a tell all.

1091
00:46:15,420 --> 00:46:16,420
And that was a tell most.

1092
00:46:16,420 --> 00:46:17,420
Tell most.

1093
00:46:17,420 --> 00:46:18,420
That was a tell most.

1094
00:46:18,420 --> 00:46:22,700
We don't have time for a full tell all, but those were the highlights, right?

1095
00:46:22,700 --> 00:46:24,020
Yeah.

1096
00:46:24,020 --> 00:46:28,660
And uh, yeah, nobody come up and talk to me about this.

1097
00:46:28,660 --> 00:46:31,060
I really don't want to hear what you think about it.

1098
00:46:31,060 --> 00:46:35,660
To be honest with you, when I'm about to go teach you a class on stage, I don't want

1099
00:46:35,660 --> 00:46:36,660
to talk about this beforehand.

1100
00:46:36,660 --> 00:46:38,260
It's okay, I'll bring it up.

1101
00:46:38,260 --> 00:46:39,260
No worries.

1102
00:46:39,260 --> 00:46:45,380
Oh, remember you're always fit to be freaking real and always allowed to be.

1103
00:46:45,380 --> 00:46:55,380
Be a little extra.

1104
00:46:55,380 --> 00:46:58,580
