haven't actually had that many dates just lots of situationships really okay so why do you think you
don't have that many dates what's going on eddie i don't know you don't know i'm just going for the wrong men probably
really yeah and how are you finding these men just come up to me like in this
yeah because i don't know i don't know i don't know i find it quite dating to me in the 21st
century in this day and age is the ghetto yes um i do feel like i don't know people are
don't get me wrong people want to spend time with other people but i feel like people date for the
sake of just wasting other people's time yeah i'm just saying yeah i'm just saying i don't think
people really know what they want thank you it's so easy to find something thank you well like you
meet somebody it's great the first two days and then after that is like fuck off
onto the next one yeah i think our attention gets taken away very easy it's easy to find
something else now but then why i do feel like back in my parents but our parents let's just say
they had fun dating experiences where the dates even till now they are still dating whereas now i my dating experience not to slate the guys that
i've dated um they've been some good good dates but i just need consistency i get that consistency
yeah no one's consistent no one's consistent like just gets bored thank you or they ghost you
yeah i'm not a fan of ghosting what is up up with the ghosting? Have you been ghosted? So many times.
I feel like every girl has been ghosted so many times.
What would you say is like your worst ghosting experience?
My worst ghosting experience?
I don't know.
Everyone just gets ghosted after they sleep with you.
I feel like quite a...
Really?
Yeah, no?
Not just me?
Well, if we're sleeping together,
you're definitely not ghosting me because...
No.
What's your worst ghosting experience?
All right.
Okay, my worst one, yeah,
is where you start talking,
you meet on social media,
you follow each other, whatever, whatever.
You know, you start stalking the stories here, there.
You're liking a story. You're not liking the pictures on my page or
on my feed but you're liking my stories so then we kind of have a kind of conversation going on
there yeah it goes great then we jump onto the whatsapp you use whatsapp you use whatsapp
i message talking talking talking talking talking and then nothing dead silence like the person
just goes quiet and that for me is very very scary because now i'm invested i'm invested
and i'll be messaging you like oh happy christmas you're not replying back to me
christmas that's a classic one yeah do you know i mean or like happy new year i don't even get a
reply but you're fucking online i can see it says online we might be liking your stories no no no no you're even posting on another social media app but you're
not replying back to me on text i find that so disrespectful no that is bad i don't do it like
i try and avoid all social media stuff whatsoever i'm just really not a fan of it yeah it just
aggravates me so you ghost people people ghost you you're a ghost aren't you you've
ghosted you've ghosted a lot of guys haven't you i've ghosted one but i feel like he was gonna
ghost me anyway you know when you feel like it fizzling out yeah so i was just like i'm just
gonna i'm gonna i'm just gonna leave this yeah i'm gonna leave before he leaves me but then why
why don't we just try and make it work because he gave me the ick i just didn't oh my god not these icks i feel like icks are just
they they are something that we've over what's the word we've over he also called his ex a psycho
he called his ex that's that's a red flag he called his ex yeah and that's why you ghosted
him before he ghosted you i went out for another date with him because he was buying me dinner and
i just wanted some free dinner Ellie and then after that
I could feel like he was losing interest
so I was like yeah
so then would you say
okay describe to me
describe to me what would be your
ideal like
dating experience from start to finish
like how do you guys meet up
how does the course go like just
explain to me I just want someone you meet someone it's like you've known them for years
no that's the fact i feel like the ct that childhood sweetheart palaver
that blood clot thing doesn't exist i'm i'm telling you it doesn't exist no more
i'll let you land but i'm just saying i'll let you land go on go on go on I'm telling you it doesn't it's no more this is dead so what no no no
I'll let you land
but I'm just saying
I'll let you land
go on go on go on
yeah so you
yeah you've known each other
for a long time
you've known each other
you're just comfortable
but they like also
like have a brain
and like
are you dating people
who have no brains
yeah
some of them
it's questionable
but like you're also
like attracted to them
at the same i'm just
asking for a lot i feel like but i don't think that's asking for a lot though no and i just yeah
consistency like after the date they actually message me and be like when do you want to ring
it up again does that ever happen so what are you dating for you dating for the fun of it or
you dating for i don't actually know you don't know what you're dating for you're just dating
for the sake of dating yeah really i think that's the problem i think you're dating for i don't actually know you don't know what you're doing i'm just kind of you're just dating for the sake of dating yeah really i think that's the problem i think you're
the problem to be fair i could be the problem at the moment because i really have no idea what i
want okay fair enough but i'll say that that's fine i'll say that to be accountable i'm very
like up front like yeah like what is this what do you want i don't know what i want i see because
me and my old age i'm not that old guys but my
old age because i'm a grandma at heart i want to date for marriage because i actually get married
and i'm getting old hello husband if you're out there listening is it this hand in it left the
left hand yeah if you like it then you should have please put a ring on it um so i think for me it's
like i don't want to date to waste my time yeah no i get it because i feel like with dating you're you're so invested in it i'm spending time with you money yeah it's a big thing
now because dates are not cheap and i also do feel like the pressures of dating is that social media
or like celebrities have kind of like glamorize it to the point where it's like if you're dating
somebody and they do they don't do x y and z yeah then they're not the one for you do you know i'm trying to say but i i do you feel like gone are the days where we can go out for a walk you know
i would love to go out for a little walk in the park and have a coffee thank you do you know i
mean a little picnic yeah everyone's just going out getting drunk and having shots thank you i
don't need all the the flashy shenanigan things i would rather you invest on the person you know i want to do something boring so i actually get to know you not not
what's not no you're trying to say walking is boring wait hold on no no no no no no it's not
doing something distracting you from who they actually are if you get what i mean yeah ellie
you i heard you mentioned something about situationships right okay a little a little moment here i know what
they are but like i wouldn't know how to explain a situationship yeah so with your experience of
situationships okay talk to me i think a situationship is when you pretty much do everything
you would do in like a boyfriend girlfriend yeah relationship or like exclusive relationship but
you're not actually in an exclusive relationship so friends
with benefit is a situation ship kind of yeah but then you're also like going out on dates and like
getting to know what their family's like and they want yeah they want the the like the essence of
being in a commitment but without actually committing to you so the the the relationship
without the title basically basically yeah yeah i can't it's not
fun no no but then how do you like do you know when you're getting into it like how do you
you have to learn i think you have to learn everything like every girl goes through experience
where they learn when they're getting into a situation ship because my thing is yeah i don't
think guys ask girls oh do you want it can i can I be your girlfriend? What, can I be your boyfriend?
Do you want to be my girlfriend?
I don't think,
I've not heard that question in a very long time.
I feel like boys now just want to get what they want to get
without actually asking for it.
Or you should know by the way I'm acting.
Brother, you could be acting like that with everybody else.
So how am I meant to know?
Literally.
So I don't know.
I have to,
I feel like girls have to,
I at the moment am very upfront and be like,
what do you want? Do you like me? Yeah. and then as soon as they tell me what it is then i know and then i'm like okay so for instance if let's say we're going out right and you're
doing everything right yeah you haven't you haven't asked me yet but you're doing everything
right and you're taking me out on dates like you even bought me a new car yeah because you rich
like that i ain't materialistic but you rich like that you bought me a new car and um yeah we travel blah blah but you've not asked me out yeah you've not
you're not officially asked me christy do you want to be my girlfriend right cool so then i
can now come to you i'm like what we doing like what are we what is this what is this yeah it's
a bit like raw like no i feel like it's like a valid question no but some guys are like whoa yeah
i'll be like then get out of my way like if you're not sure then someone else will that's the thing
like i feel like girls we get stuck in a place where we want to ask these questions we don't
want to because we don't want to throw the person off but then how dare i stay and wait on just
the fox is just sitting there like what's going on do you know
what i mean like ask me so i do feel like situationships is it's not avoidable everyone's
basically in their situation is in their situation english situation ship yeah i feel like it can be
avoided at the very if you i would ask what someone wants like after the first date yeah no yes i literally
i don't know i did that that makes sense like i just want them to be up front with me like if
they'd be like oh i just want to sleep with you regularly if they said that i literally respect
them more i'd be like okay okay cool fine i know what you want now so i'm not saying i'm gonna be
like no but like at least then i know but what if it's somebody like i hear that i'm all about that
like let me know where it's from the jump because i'm not jumping in this pool and i can't swim you know if i think we're both i'm dragging
you down with me period but um what i was going to say is how what if yes for instance you've
asked the person and what they want is what it's not what you want do you still go ahead with that
relationship or that probably not no probably not depends on what they are
so you're more inclined to like fuck your feelings
i'm gonna still try you know i'm still gonna ride this boat yeah i'll learn something from the end
of it though like when i get my heart broken i'll be like okay so how do i make a few tiktoks and
i'll get over it so how do i avoid for the people at home and the people listening how do we avoid
situations from the date guru i'm a date guru
i would literally just ask what they want and then if it's not the same as you then it's not
the same as you and yeah if you want to do the sensible thing then you stop talking to them if
you want to true cry a bit and and it's okay yeah like i'm 23 like i'm i'm i'm okay about crying a
little bit more about no i'm so sorry that thing is yeah i can't be asking bare man oh what do
you want and you're telling me just to have fun brother i'm turning 30 soon what are you doing
yeah like my ovaries they're gonna shrivel see okay i'm not faded i'm i've got a while to fade
you guys just let you guys know
but um yeah i do feel like if let's say you keep on asking those questions and the people that
you're meeting are not ready for a said relationship then what do you do go find this
go find somebody else four billion men in the world yeah a lot of them are the same but that's surely there's gonna be one or two out
there but i'm gonna i heard something today it was like you shouldn't look for the right person
you should look for someone who's looking no you shouldn't look for the right person you should
look for someone who's willing to work on the right things with you oh i i i like that yeah i like that yeah
i liked it as well i was like okay i'm not looking for something perfect i'm looking for someone
who's a broken okay not a broken oh no no no no no no no no no but also someone that couldn't
they're willing to put in the same effort as me. Yeah.
Yeah.
I hear that.
I'm like, I'm still looking for that,
but I'm willing to try other things.
Because I feel like I don't know exactly what I like at the moment either.
So that's why I'm kind of just.
You're in a great part of your life right now.
I know.
I can't lie.
You've got it good.
Because when I've got my parents calling me like so when like
my parents even asked me like do people not talk to you on the street like where's your boyfriend
mom was like you know you're turning 30s and it's me mom 30s in a couple of years but yeah like
don't people chat to you on the road like do you want me to she even said do you want me to like
create a page for you i said no
no no no no no no no and i was like to them i don't think you understand like the streets are
cold yeah the street there yeah it's not it's the ghetto i'm sitting in the pavement waiting and
nobody's coming to get me not even the guy that cleans the street is good enough good enough for
me that's how bad it is but it's just that they've had it so easy and we've got
like we've got online dating and stuff even online is scary no online makes it worse online makes
everything worse because the grass is always greener in men's minds i think because i think
oh i've completed this one now i may as well jump online and see what i can get next so then what do
we do if i can't find somebody online i can't find somebody in person, then the dating scene is doomed.
Yeah.
I'm just going to become a nun.
That's my mentality at the moment.
Yeah.
I might just become a nun.
We'll see where I am
this time next year.
Maybe we should like regroup
every so often.
Every six months.
Like six months with you. So Ellie, how's your day? It's so often. Every six months. Like six months with you.
So Ellie, how's your day?
I get the tissues out.
Do you know what I mean?
No, but I'm hopeful that we are in a day and age
where people, it's good to enjoy dating.
It's fun to kind of like get to know people.
But like you said, know what you want.
And don't feel like you need to know to date.
Go and dibble dabble and find kind date go and dibble dabble and find kind
of like dibble dabble and find what is for you and learn about yourself at the same time yeah
i feel like stop putting so much energy into other people whether they like you and see whether you
like them yeah do you believe in soulmates uh no no i don't know i feel like someone could be your soulmate in the moment i can i believe in soul
friends soul friend oh my friends my girl they all are my soulmates yeah but that can be the
same with men surely it's just men have no soul they do but i don't know soulmate maybe you know back in like childhood back in school
yeah my first crush big up massimo you were my soulmate but i gotta get that you were my soulmate
you see oh my god italian no it Spanish Spanish oh I had an Italian sorry mate
you know
Italiano
that was
that was my soulmate
but it was
you know
young love
it was like
a crush
I didn't even talk to him
did you actually talk to him
yeah I went to his birthday
and everything
lived in a bungalow
yeah man
Massimo
he's got curly hair
I was just too shy
and too awkward
to actually talk
I never spoke to him
really
yeah
yeah I don't I don't know-throughs to actually talk. I never spoke to him. Really? Yeah. Yeah, I don't know.
Now, soulmate,
I don't think I...
If Massimo approached you now...
I think he's married, you know.
I'm not going to lie to you.
But if Massimo approached me now,
I know both our parents...
Both our parents
will be super happy
and we'll have
half Italian andgolese kids
yeah it'll be great cute yeah i could i've seen it if he sees this i know i was just thinking that
huh you're open to it um yeah that's even if he's married would you go for a hold up no i leave the
married men alone but um yeah because i feel like that's somebody i've
known for the for a good part of my life yeah um i mean just like you said you want i feel like i
don't like dating people though that have known me from like ages ago because i was a different
person no but i literally was i feel like if i meet, like, for example, I met up with a guy on Friday.
You know how it's like meeting a friend?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I met up with a guy on Friday who knew me from first year uni.
Yeah.
I didn't know what the hell was going on because he asked me up for drinks
and I was like, you've literally never asked me to meet up for drinks before in my life.
So we were out for ages.
And then after I was like so confused because he
said oh we'll meet up again for your birthday which is in like three weeks time yeah i was
like well it can't be that keen on me like because three weeks time yeah it's like quite a long time
but then he still wants to meet up again so i was just like what what is going on he likes you
no he just wants he's just got our relationship okay so he just wants basically some fun
hold on so he just wants some fun i reckon he just wants some fun but he's knowing me from
uni and me at uni i wasn't exactly like i'm gonna settle down with you and have children
yeah i was just like a fun party girl so i think he just has that image of me
in his head you're outside outside
i'm outside too i like to party yeah but i i don't do that as much now oh i don't yeah it's
a weird situation yeah so he's asked to meet me yeah i don't know isn't it easier to go with
someone that you've previously known or have an inkling about them finding somebody new that can basically bring up a whole like they can pretend to be somebody that
they're not but if it's somebody from the past that you're like oh that's that's that's off
i know you're not like that no i feel like someone can change i've known him for like five years so
someone can change like in five years i hear it but better to know somebody for five years and
find somebody new known them for five years
and then the five years
that comes
then it's like
I never liked you
I liked your sister
or something like that
do you know what I mean
yeah
I don't
so let's say
someone from five years ago
decided like
hey Chrissy
can we go out
for some drinks
and you had a good time
with them
wait someone from five years
that I've known
or someone that I've dated before
someone that you've known for five years
I'd give it a go
yeah because they do say that the person
you're going to marry is somebody that you've known before
yeah but what if they after
said that it was going to be like they weren't
looking for a relationship
fuck you
fuck you and fuck off
don't waste you see me you better not
waste my time I got better things on my mind like don't waste I'm the type of off don't wait you see me you better not waste my time i got perfect on my mind like
don't waste i'm the type of person don't waste my time don't waste it i don't have time i don't
have time i actually don't have time like no i'll actually cry i don't have time
the dating scene is so no no no no no deep me yeah i'm telling you enjoy it because once you
get to my age should i enjoy it or should i settle down i feel like you're gonna understand
who you are and what you want for what you want for yourself and what you want for the guy you
want to settle down with do you want to marry i think so yeah you think so yeah i definitely want like that
kind of thing you think so yeah no i do i do i want like basically a husband and kids yeah
husband and kids yeah any how many kids i'd like three two of my own one adopted preferably
you're so lovely so so you see right now enjoy it but they'll get they'll get to no let me just
ask you a question one question okay did you ever had like an age where you're like at this age i
need to be settled down married kids living my best life yeah no that was literally me about a
month ago and then i actually started dating again so you said at 23 you wanted to have yeah i feel
like i've been like that for quite a while like for the past year i feel like okay no i actually
just want to find someone i want to settle down with but then when this guy asked to meet for drinks i was like oh my god
like yeah this could be and it freaked me out yeah i was like i'm just too happy with my freedom at
the moment to actually just i hear it like jump yeah so that's when i was like oh maybe i'm not
actually ready ready yeah if you get what i mean oh maybe i'm not actually ready ready yeah i forget what i mean
but maybe i was just overthinking it because i heard a term today called emotional masturbating
what emotional emotional masturbating yeah it's basically when you are talking to someone yeah
and you're you instantly think of all the things in your life that they could be filling
oh i've done that so then you immediately start thinking about all the things in your life that
you need to change in order for them to like be a part of it even when you're only just started
dating and it's more common in women than it is in men why don't men have this i don't know
what's going on i think it's all the princess films we saw probably so what would they oh
they're watching action
and action
and we'd get no action
so
I'm guessing
clearly that's not gonna motivate you
to find a wife
and settle down with
is it
gosh
literally
Chrissy
have you ever
been in love
with myself
yeah
oh
love that
with myself
yeah
love a queen
and love me
and have I been in love
have I been in love i feel like if your answer isn't an instant yes it's isn't that what people say like if you if
you don't know then it's a no it's a no yeah have i been in love i don't think i've been in
that's a big word man i don't know i know what type of love we talking here
exactly so you think there's different types of love yeah because then it's lost loss is not love
but no there's the thought you think you're in love but you're not actually in love yeah
and there's a love where it's like no but what's love got to do what's love that's hard for me to
answer i can't have you been in love i don't think i have no i feel like
i've had obsessive love do you get what i mean okay maybe rather than real love yeah yeah
obsessive love yeah i've been obsessed definitely been obsessed like with gremlins as well it's
just gremlins it's the film was that i thought you're calling somebody a gremlin yeah no actually yeah
yeah i wrote an 18 page letter to a rabbi
this was like i was obsessed with the gremlin yeah and i couldn't be with him because he was
jewish and i just didn't understand so i wrote an 18 page letter to a rabbi.
I'm reading you were four page.
Okay.
Yeah.
Did you get a reply back?
In an email, something of some sort.
He invited me to a conference or something.
Wow.
Wait, what?
Ellie.
You wrote a letter to a rabbi because you couldn't be with yeah yeah i've i've
what was the letter like what were you trying to do i don't know because he the guy gave me a book
explaining why he couldn't be with me wow yeah so then i highlighted all the things in the book
what i didn't agree with and then i sent it to the rampage would it be easier to convert no it was really hard to convert no i hear that though
wow i'm determined i mean i look back on it now it's like well you really should just let it go
but yeah but was that your did you wait was that your soulmate that was your soulmate definitely
not for you to write 18 page later i was just obsessed like i was just obsessed i think i was kind of also had
other things going on yeah i was kind of just obsessing over him rather than actually focusing
on like yourself yeah wow and then 18 page letter was the thing that needed to happen well that's
good that you've done that because now i've got my sister yeah your sister started to reflect
you because i feel like you'd probably still be obsessed with that person right till now Well, that's good that you've done that. Yeah, I've got it on my system. Yeah, your system's starting to reflect you.
Because I feel like you'd probably still be obsessed with that person right until now.
No.
You didn't do that?
No.
No.
Not at all.
No.
Interesting.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So we're going to play a game called Red Flag or Green Flag.
Exciting.
And I know you guys know what this means.
So we're going to read some statements out.
And then we're going to see whether it's a red flag or green flag for us okay yeah sounds good sounds exciting let's go okay first
one wanting to go out with his friends without you wanted to go yeah that's fine that's fine
because like no i don't think you think it's a red flag no i wouldn't say i would just say no flag
no flag why No flag.
Why are you holding it by the... It's not a red flag.
Because his mates are not my mates.
Not letting you look at their phone.
Invasion of privacy.
No, come on.
What's on the phone?
That's the point.
Yeah, but you're saying red red flag but is he allowed to
look at your phone yeah okay can i can i why would you not want him looking at your phone
you can look at my phone so let's say you wanted to like google something and you tried to go on
his phone and it's like no you can't use my phone oh that's a red flag come on now i'm like this i'm i'm i'm both of them red and green how
i see it is that you're your own person i'm my own person right that is your place of that's your
moment and my phone is my moment why couldn't like fishing be his moment why why are you putting i
feel like people can have their own moment but in a different way it doesn't have to be on their
phone for you having access to their phone,
do you want access to all their accounts now as well?
No, but like...
I think that's what it's basically saying.
I need to know what's on your phone.
I need to know what's your password.
I don't need to know what's on your phone.
Your phone's your phone.
But if I ask for your phone and you're moving a bit mad,
then clearly there's a problem.
But if you ask for my phone, I'd give you my phone but i don't
think i need to know what's on the phone but if you ask for his phone and he said no okay no come
on okay that's that's you and your own conscience okay okay okay yes no i'm saying red i'm saying
i don't think that i don't think it's that deep unless my unless something comes at night and
tells me look at the phone then yeah yeah but no okay next one not wanting to share food
sorry no like what we are sharing what's mine is yours what's yours is mine yeah
i eat like i couldn't eat for yeah i was sharing can you imagine my thing is like i like having things
in the middle and we share it yeah you get that meal i get that meal and then do you know what
i mean sharing is caring share your food come unless there's mushrooms to keep that to yourself
i'll have the mushrooms disgusting i'll eat anything i think it's fine to share if that
is agreed upon at the start but what i don't't like is, what I don't like is,
I've been out when I was with my girlfriend
and I would order something
and she would order something else
and then suddenly she decides
that she doesn't like what she wants
and she wants to have some of mine.
No, because when you were a kid
and your mum was eating her food,
did you not go and pick out your mum's food,

So sharing is caring.
How do you know about my food?
No, but I don't think
nothing's wrong with that

I'd share in all situations
yeah I'd share as well
or it's the
I don't want anything
and then you get something
and then they go

yeah it is a classic
I've been there
but sometimes
I feel like the food
tastes nice off the guy's plate

the food tastes mwah off the guy chef's kiss but you're weak yeah that's never a red flag if
you can't share yeah no sharing it's exactly red flag not a fan okay not wanting to go

i'd like to pay the most but i'll pay for like a coffee and everything no i don't mind paying
no i don't yeah no i would rather pay actually this is one of the things i don't know you're
not going to embarrass me so if i'll pay i don't really know i haven't figured that out yet that's
one of the things i'm trying to what if he doesn't even offer to pay oh
sorry you can't even go pretend that you're transferring money to your your save from your
savings to your current account sir i you're not even gonna pretend that you're gonna like
you're not even gonna act like don't worry like are you dumb would you ever say yes straight away
that what that you like if he says i'll pay and you haven't said yet to be honest i'm always ready
to pay yeah i'm always ready there's no one
in this life is going to embarrass me unless you're going to oh yeah babe can you like huh
no but if it was like a first date and he offered to pay would you just say you can pay i mean i
thought oh thanks i'll say if he wants to pay you can pay but i mean but then that's that thing if
whoever asks us for the date or asks us to take the person out, they're entitled to pay.
I do that.
Yeah, I do that as well.

I've had a great time with you.
I'm going to pay.

yeah oh even to my friends be on time silly guys i don't mind friends no be on time oh be on time
okay even work be on time yeah so i've got a few questions from some reddit threads about people asking for relationship
advice and i want to know what you guys think we'll try yeah yeah let's go ellie's the guru
cool so first one yeah i really like this girl but she only wants to be in an open relationship
i've never done this before i normally believe in monogamy but i really like her girl, but she only wants to be in an open relationship. I've never done this before.
I normally believe in monogamy, but I really like her.
Should I try it?
No.
No, I don't think.
Do not change yourself for somebody else.
If they don't want to change for you, don't do it.
No.
That sucks.
Yeah.
Yeah, don't do it.
I feel that.
I think if you know what you want before you meet someone, you don't change.
Exactly.
For someone else.
Yes.
Yes.
Don't look for the right person
the look for someone who's willing to work right with you what was it i don't know yeah
what she said at the beginning cool solid advice what do i do if i think my boyfriend is cheating
without pushing him away in case he isn't this is a hard one because if you
like me i need the context yeah or maybe just i feel like if you've got an inkling there's
something going on anyway yeah i'll be like asking would you cheat on me and by that by that reaction
then you can go by just be a straight up i feel like you're cheating why do you feel that because of this this that you guys you guys be straight up yeah be straight
up then yeah but then would you what would you do in that situation like if you thought someone
was cheating on you the bad me was saying cheat on them back oh but i don't i don't do that i'm
a good girl so i will address the person be like like what's going on i feel like we've been i feel like i try and find some evidence before i but that's it you sure
yeah but surely you surely if you think surely you have evidence or you have an
i don't know if you're an inkling it's like a gut feeling and then i address my gut feeling
with trying to find evidence yeah you're right yeah that means snooping damn yeah yeah which
isn't great but i can't really think of anything
else because you won't be able to sleep at night true i hear it cool next one my girlfriend's
breath smells but i don't know how to tell her tell her yeah that's who you're kissing every
every so yeah it has to be brutal about it like literally just like look i know this is gonna be
hard to hear but i just want you to know
because it's for your own good
and for my own sanity
your breath smells
yeah
just be straight up man
is it okay to end up dating someone
who is in the same friendship group
as you
so they're in the same friendship group
but they want to date each other
is it a good idea uh if you're willing to risk the friendship for the relationship then yes
yep and just don't get don't get anybody else involved so go for your well they're going to
get involved though that's the thing like if it ends up not working then that's it the friendship
group's over that's true you know you just yeah you should be strong-willed if it goes left it goes left are you really that good
friends like you can be in the same friendship group but not be that good friends okay do you
know what i mean so then even if it doesn't work out you can kind of be civil with each other in
the friendship group yeah but if you're like genuinely like ride or die then then you've got
to kind of consider yeah because if it goes left then boy it could yeah yeah give it a go though
would you give it a go yeah i would give it a go depends on the situation i'd give it a go
it's good to try you want to know if you're back that's true maybe on one day yeah yeah just a date yeah see what's in okay
I started dating someone
and then he asked me to be
his friends with benefits
why didn't he say it at the start
yeah
for one
but if you're
more than happy to
go ahead with it
no
I feel like if you're not saying it
like
straight up
then I'm just a bit like
mind you yeah exactly depends on what depends what you're looking for true like if you're happy
but then that's us being hypocrites because we're like if that's not what you wanted from the start
then don't do it the first true so i would say if that's not what you want to do don't do it but if you're open enough to be like
okay let me give it a try then do it but then don't be so hard on yourself when it doesn't
go right because at least you've tried something you've tried something you'll learn from it there
you go you won't know to do it you won't know to do it again you'll know not to do it again you know not you'll know not to do it again yeah yeah yeah so if they're worth it
the overall thing is don't do it but if you can see no don't do it and don't convince yourself
to do it yeah but if it's something that you want to do then do it yeah that's so
just don't do it don't do it please don't do it yeah yeah just don't do it
yeah don't do it yeah i don't know if don't do it please don't do it yeah yeah just don't do it yeah don't do it
yeah i don't know if we'll do an advice segment again no don't do it guys don't do it don't do
it if you don't want to do it for your friends of benefit don't do it especially if you want
a relationship don't do it don't do it don't okay last one yeah i'm with someone who i love
but i can't stand his friends what do I do
get new friends
no but you can't stand his friends
you're not meant to stand them they're his friends
that's true like he can do
exactly
are you standing them
are you trying to force yourself in that friendship
maybe she is
maybe he she is
yeah I mean I feel like you trying to force yourself in that friendship maybe she is or he yeah maybe he she is yeah i
mean i feel like you're in love with him not the the reasons why she or he might not like the
friendship could be valid because let's say they're very like uh i don't know they sleep loads of
people and stuff like that and he's actually or he or she is actually supposed to be in a committed
relationship i wouldn't be comfortable with him being in a friendship group where they're all very like laddy and like yeah
yeah i hear that i hear that i hear that i wouldn't say that he should
if that if the friends that he's known for time for a long yeah i feel like you can still be
friends with them but you don't have to go and be involved with things that they're doing they if they're real friends then you can do other
things with them that don't involve i mean you can do your partner know that oh because what
your concerns are yeah and if he feels as if okay cool maybe he is easily influenced by those friends
then he can somehow not be not not bring them around you as much.
Or, I don't know.
It's a hard one.
Yeah.
If you genuinely just find them annoying,
if that's it, then that's fine.
Then you can go do stuff with his friends
and you don't have to be there.
They don't have to be your friends.
But they're not my friends anyway, so.
But if you actually have an issue with them
actually affecting your relationship
then yeah that's something you need to address yeah definitely
so this is the part of the show where we play don't spill the tea where you spill the tea
and we try not to let's go giving a hand job to my boyfriend things were hot and heavy he was
getting close and my brain was trying to think of sexy things to say and before i could stop myself i said yeah gotta get all the milk out needless to say
hard to continue giving a guy a handjob while he's laughing his ass off and saying what the
fuck did you just say i feel like she should have thought that through but she did she was
thinking while i was doing it just don't say anything at all how about it but sometimes in the moment you're just like bingo got it and then so you'll say
bingo got it
i'll say bingo
but like maybe he was maybe he was like asking her to say something no don't ask me to say
anything man just have your moment.
So who would say no?
Just get it done.
No, yeah, what she said was just, nah.
Ruin the vibe.
I'm done.
Yeah.
I was working at a big construction project in a big industrial plant at the time
and we had about 1,500 people there.
Obviously, when you have so many people
working in something as construction,
you have some sketchy people there. So shit there was a guy selling fake ids driver's licenses
degrees and shit like that there are a couple of shit smearing guys drug dealers and the list goes
on what the fuck the most fucked up time was when some guy in the locker room showers probably in
the middle of the afternoon when everyone was working out, unscrewed the top part and filled the inside part of the shower with shit.
And then he put the top back on.
At the end of the shift when people were changing their clothes and showering,
some unlucky bastard got a shit shower.
We never found out who did it.
No.
What is this place and construction site what they have showers and gyms at construction
sites these construction sites why are you scooping poop this sounds like a
lily through documentary place going on no but men do that don't they they do what like they
just do yeah like when i was at uni like guys used to do
like the weirdest things
with each other
like they used to like
wank into condoms
and then put like
the semen on each other's
like door handles
ugh
yeah
and they'd just be like
poo everywhere
that's disgusting
maybe
I've just met some
sketchy men
clearly
yeah
okay
next one
midsummer in sweden is one hell of a party and i can't remember i can't remember a single
midsummer where people haven't got royally rat arsed or fallen over while dancing around the
giant phallic symbol that we erect for the party rinsing your recently abused palette of rotten fish with large
quantities of vodka can get you more drunk than you'd care to imagine 6 a.m and the missus and
i have swayed home we were determined to nail each other down and the missus and i have swayed home
we were determined to nail each other to the bed when we get home now to be fair she was awesome
in bed it's just that this night
was about to go wrong.
Terribly, terribly wrong.
We'd both been drinking
for nearly 20 hours straight.
We were both obscenely drunk.
I could hardly keep my body erect,
let alone Mr. Winky.
Mrs. Nugget.
What does that even mean
i'm gonna read it as it is
mrs nugget she'd hoik her grass
then dress up
mrs nugget you should have gone the other way
I didn't even get any of that
I don't understand
who went from
winky
Mrs Nugget
she'd hoik her grass stained dress up
and ride my face
this she did rather hard i'm not only
used to this but a great fan my tongue worked away at her feverishly i was in heaven we both came
and as fate would have it the orgasm ripping through her body caused her to grind down harder
on my face and fart. Forcefully injecting undiluted rectal gases into my
air-hungry nose. Oh this man sounds interesting for sure.
Hoinked. Hoinked. A full force and totally ripe hot fart,
far worse than the initial burst of smell from the tin,
cleaned up my nostrils.
The reaction was instant and completely unaware of her crime,
Mrs Nugget ground down harder on my face as I gasped for air.
In the full grip of natural bodily rejection,
I hoid my alcohol rich stomach content
including a large amount of undigested rotten fish straight up her pink mitten she ran screaming to
the bathroom leaving a trail of stomach acid alcohol and rotten chunks of fish behind her
on the floor as it gushed from her burning snatch that was really well described like he's really thought that through like it wasn't just like oh
yeah i threw up in her like oh my god it's almost like he took pleasure in writing that story
does it burn are you okay christy i don't know
so i fight no i didn't fight Does it burn? Are you okay, Christy? I don't know. So I farted.
No, I didn't fart.
Where is this going?
I'm just trying to understand what just happened.
So she farted.
Yeah, and then didn't he throw up in her?
Yeah.
Yeah.
And you know...
Oh.
Oh.
Well, yeah. yeah yeah I'm guessing
that's gonna hurt
for Bitski as well
