2
::[Robb]: as always, Tina. How you doing, Tina?
3
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm doing good. I'm finally

::[Tina m Garcia]: other than that I'm doing really
well it was a good week a good not good week
7
::[Tina m Garcia]: it was a good month
8
::[Robb]: Couple weeks, right? You were.
9
::[Tina m Garcia]: I went five different places

10
::[Robb]: Yeah, that's crazy. Super
11
::[Tina m Garcia]: Yeah
12
::[Robb]: crazy.
13
::[Tina m Garcia]: well
14
::[Robb]: It.
15
::[Tina m Garcia]: I I don't want to say no anymore
you know like everybody was like
16
::[Robb]: Whoa.
17
::[Tina m Garcia]: teen what are you doing for
your birthday you should come and see me I'm
18
::[Tina m Garcia]: like okay I'm going you know
so it was all places that that didn't I didn't
19
::[Tina m Garcia]: have to spend much you know
to go
20
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
21
::[Tina m Garcia]: but um it was nice to reconnect
I still have one more visit I'm gonna go see
22
::[Tina m Garcia]: my cousin I need to go see
my cousin but that one
23
::[Tina m Garcia]: You know, throw it all out
there and go, I have to do some planning, so
24
::[Robb]: Right, right, right.
25
::[Tina m Garcia]: that will be the next one.
But other than that, I'm home.
26
::[Robb]: Very good, very good. Yeah, it seems
like forever that we haven't done this, so.
27
::[Tina m Garcia]: It's been two weeks, yeah.
28
::[Robb]: I know, but it seems like such a long
time, so.
29
::[Tina m Garcia]: right?
30
::[Robb]: But it has not been. So, yeah, make
sure to check out our socials, all that fun
31
::[Robb]: stuff, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter.
And then check us out on Apple, Google, Amazon,
32
::[Robb]: Spotify, Li Heart Radio, any place you
can hear this crazy podcast. Make sure you
33
::[Robb]: follow and subscribe. All right. So,
as always, we always have ideas and we actually
34
::[Robb]: had a couple.
35
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
36
::[Robb]: And I know we were gonna do one, but
I kinda squashed that because my frame of mind,
37
::[Robb]: I didn't wanna like blow up because
I saw a friend of mine and I didn't want to
38
::[Robb]: like throw that out there just because
of things people are going through.
39
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
40
::[Robb]: Although we're gonna talk about that
one. But this one kinda came up at my work.
41
::[Robb]: We were talking about, there's a guy
named Andrew Tate who kind of talks about the
42
::[Robb]: differences between men and women. And
he gets thrown into being called misogynistic
43
::[Robb]: and a bunch of other shit, but some
of the stuff he says is out of control. He,
44
::[Robb]: matter of fact, he was in a prison in
Romania, but they just let him out of the house
45
::[Robb]: arrest because supposedly he was trafficking
women, but that's neither here nor there because
46
::[Robb]: he hasn't
47
::[Tina m Garcia]: Hmm.
48
::[Robb]: been charged. But he does say a lot
about how women really want a nice guy but
49
::[Robb]: never go for one. And it kind of echoed
back to something that my ex-wife said years
50
::[Robb]: and years and years ago to a friend
of mine saying that I was just too nice. And
51
::[Robb]: I thought that
52
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
53
::[Robb]: that was just a crazy thing. So this
came out of my work, and I work with all males.
54
::[Robb]: There's not one female that works at
my place. So all these things, being kind of
55
::[Robb]: thrown back and forth between the different
age groups. The youngest is probably 30 and
56
::[Robb]: the oldest is like 62. So we all started
talking about this kind of stuff and I was
57
::[Robb]: just like, I don't get it. Women generally
say, you know, I want a nice guy and I want
58
::[Robb]: this and they usually end up with dicks
that they continue to stay with are just fucking
59
::[Robb]: horrible human beings that say horrible
shit to them and do all this shit, but they
60
::[Robb]: never picked a nice guy, and I never
understood that. Because we kind of talked
61
::[Robb]: off the air right before we got here.
Women are just a different breed, and so are
62
::[Robb]: men, and obviously we're different.
Men, at least the people that I know, they
63
::[Robb]: don't want some bitch
64
::[Robb]: They just
65
::[Tina m Garcia]: I
66
::[Robb]: don't.
67
::[Tina m Garcia]: don't know, because I know
a lot of guys that are with like women that
68
::[Tina m Garcia]: I could honestly say, I don't
know how they don't just slam their head into
69
::[Tina m Garcia]: a wall sometimes with the stuff
I hear them say. So I know you said that that
70
::[Tina m Garcia]: men don't pick women like that,
but they do.
71
::[Robb]: I mean, I just don't think that it's
the general thing. Like women want the bad
72
::[Robb]: boy. Guys want a whore in the bedroom,
73
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm
74
::[Robb]: but
75
::[Tina m Garcia]: gonna
76
::[Robb]: they
77
::[Tina m Garcia]: go.
78
::[Robb]: want someone nice 99% of the time everywhere
else. They want that weird thing. Women seem
79
::[Robb]: to go for like the bad boy, aggressive,
crazy guy that's just a fucking prick, and
80
::[Robb]: I don't get it. And again, I'm just
coming from me, guys finish last and that's
81
::[Robb]: probably what this show will probably
end up be calling or something like that when
82
::[Robb]: I edit it. I think it's wild that the
normal generally nice dude who pretty much
83
::[Robb]: is your, I hate to say Hollywood guy,
but people like that they always do finish
84
::[Robb]: last. They're always the guys that are
just like yeah I'm cool but or they just get
85
::[Robb]: friend zoned so quick and Maybe it's
just I don't understand that side. So, and
86
::[Robb]: the guys at my work were kind of saying
the same thing. It's like all their male friends
87
::[Robb]: who are kind of douchey or just kind
of pricks always get the girl. What about around
88
::[Robb]: your people? And again, we're a little
older, but I still think it's been around since
89
::[Robb]: we were in high school. You know what
I mean? It's like nothing new.
90
::[Tina m Garcia]: Yeah, I don't know. I kind
of see things differently.
91
::[Tina m Garcia]: There's a generality with females
right now where they're the ones that are kind
92
::[Tina m Garcia]: of aggressive and kind of bitchy.
So I would say that they definitely wouldn't
93
::[Tina m Garcia]: want somebody that couldn't
top that because you need somebody that's going
94
::[Tina m Garcia]: to outdo you. And maybe that's
part of it. I don't know. I don't know. I,
95
::[Tina m Garcia]: I kind of like the nice guys,
you know, being that I had a dad around and
96
::[Tina m Garcia]: a grandfather and uncles and
brother guys, I treated guys differently. You
97
::[Tina m Garcia]: know, I was a guy as girl.
That's how, what all my people say about me.
98
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
99
::[Tina m Garcia]: Like I, I don't have a problem
with guys. woman. Guys are pretty straightforward,
100
::[Tina m Garcia]: I like that, but um not that
they can't be douchey, they can, but... I also
101
::[Tina m Garcia]: believe that we bring out certain
characteristics in every person. And so if
102
::[Tina m Garcia]: we're going for a douchey guy,
it's normally because we're doing something
103
::[Tina m Garcia]: to create it.
104
::[Robb]: I mean, yeah, I can see that. I can
see where you're coming from that. My thing
105
::[Robb]: is like, it's always the bad boy. And
maybe that is kind of true. I think most women
106
::[Robb]: that think they want the bad boy is
because that bad boy has super confidence,
107
::[Robb]: or they think that a bad boy being kind
of dicky is gonna be the person who's the protector.
108
::[Tina m Garcia]: Or maybe
109
::[Robb]: So.
110
::[Tina m Garcia]: they've been raised with guys
that are kind of dicky to their, to their,
111
::[Tina m Garcia]: um, you know, female role models.
And so that's what they go for, because that's
112
::[Tina m Garcia]: what they've been trained to
deal with.
113
::[Robb]: Yeah,
114
::[Tina m Garcia]: Could go that way.
115
::[Robb]: I mean, and I understand like, how an
early relationship could cause that kind of
116
::[Robb]: thing to where you continue to just
keep going to the same kind of person. I mean,
117
::[Robb]: that's, I understand that part of it.
But I still think that that's probably a low
118
::[Robb]: percentage.
119
::[Robb]: The people that, and I've seen it in
my life, like my best friend growing up in
120
::[Robb]: his high school years was a fucking
idiot and a prick to every girl. And they fucking
121
::[Robb]: couldn't wait to line up to get at him.
And I remember he used to step back, and I
122
::[Robb]: had girlfriends during that time, and
I'm pretty much the same guy, all in all. my
123
::[Robb]: how I think of what you should do. Again,
I'm sappy though, I'm a hopeless romantic,
124
::[Robb]: so I'm kind of this weird, this weird
thing, but I'm starting to think I should just
125
::[Robb]: be a dick. I
126
::[Tina m Garcia]: Well...
127
::[Robb]: think I should just say fuck off to
everybody and shit on everyone and go okay,
128
::[Robb]: because
129
::[Tina m Garcia]: Listen.
130
::[Robb]: they seem to get the relationship.
131
::[Tina m Garcia]: right? Well, here's the deal,
though. You, you could only love somebody as
132
::[Tina m Garcia]: much as you love yourself.
And women don't tend to love themselves the
133
::[Tina m Garcia]: way they should. That's what
I see. So they go,
134
::[Robb]: Agree.
135
::[Tina m Garcia]: they they'll stay at the same
energy that they that they feel about themselves.
136
::[Tina m Garcia]: And if they're, if they're
with a guy that's like really douchey, maybe
137
::[Tina m Garcia]: that says a lot about what
they, what they think about themselves.
138
::[Robb]: Yeah, I mean, and again, I think previous
relationships or the last relationship can
139
::[Robb]: be a killer. My friend in Vegas, I bring
her up quite a lot, she was in a relationship
140
::[Robb]: for 17 years. I had never realized how
mentally abusive of her husband was until we
141
::[Robb]: started kind of talking really, really
deep about things. Like she, I think you do
142
::[Robb]: know her. We went to high school together.
I'm not sure if you know her or not, but anyway,
143
::[Robb]: she was, she's always been really pretty.
In high school, she was heavier,
144
::[Robb]: But her husband was one of those people
that were just like, no one's ever gonna want
145
::[Robb]: you. and hammered that into her for
so long that she believed it, to the point
146
::[Robb]: where, like, if she'd question you for
saying she was pretty.
147
::[Tina m Garcia]: Listen, that happened so often.
You know, women, again, if you don't love yourself,
148
::[Tina m Garcia]: you're going to find somebody
that won't love you as well, just because that's
149
::[Tina m Garcia]: where you're at. If if you
believe what everybody says over and over again
150
::[Tina m Garcia]: about you, which I don't know
how people don't believe it because it will
151
::[Tina m Garcia]: wear on you if you're getting
negative, negative responses. But I also know
152
::[Tina m Garcia]: that if somebody really loves
you, they will make you a better person. And
153
::[Tina m Garcia]: you have to look for, I say,
if you want to have a good life, you need to
154
::[Tina m Garcia]: have somebody that,
155
::[Tina m Garcia]: You keep trying to do more.
You keep trying to be a better person. But
156
::[Tina m Garcia]: oftentimes women will pick
either, you know, what their, what their fathers
157
::[Tina m Garcia]: were like, or if their fathers
weren't there, whatever they're left with,
158
::[Tina m Garcia]: that's a big deal. A lot of
women don't like themselves. It's just something
159
::[Tina m Garcia]: that's very common amongst
women. If they don't like themselves, they're
160
::[Tina m Garcia]: not going to like you. You
can't be in a relationship with somebody that
161
::[Tina m Garcia]: doesn't really like themselves.
It just don't work. And you're going to have
162
::[Tina m Garcia]: up with a lot of drama.
163
::[Tina m Garcia]: I think that as a whole, you
know, society has made it to where women have
164
::[Tina m Garcia]: to be aggressive, women have
to do everything and often feel like they're
165
::[Tina m Garcia]: failing because they can't
do one thing well because they're doing 20
166
::[Tina m Garcia]: things at one time.
167
::[Robb]: Right.
168
::[Tina m Garcia]: So I think that women need
to quit being so hard on themselves and start
169
::[Tina m Garcia]: working on why they feel the
way they do and then maybe they'll pick better
170
::[Tina m Garcia]: people.
171
::[Robb]: Yeah, I do agree with you, like societal.
I think modern feminism has, I mean, we've
172
::[Robb]: talked about it before on the podcast,
has hurt both sides, right? You know, women
173
::[Robb]: expect to be independent and do all
these things and not need a man, but still
174
::[Robb]: think the man should do all the manly
shit, like pay all the bills and do all this
175
::[Robb]: and do all that. So now men are kind
of stepping backwards and going, when she expects
176
::[Robb]: everything but still thinks that she's
the leader. And I get like, look, I'm a true
177
::[Robb]: believer, men should be the leader in
a partnership. It should be a partnership for
178
::[Robb]: sure, but yes, I think men should lead.
And call me misogynistic, whatever you wanna
179
::[Robb]: call it, I just come from that era,
right, where my dad's dad's dad's dad did that.
180
::[Robb]: That's just reality. And I think that
that's what's also hurting things where modern
181
::[Robb]: women think that nice guys are one of
two things. They're either weak or they're
182
::[Robb]: not believable. They have an ulterior
motive. They're acting like this to get something.
183
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm.
184
::[Robb]: And I think that's even scarier. That
the person that, because all I hear is from
185
::[Robb]: people who've had shitty relationships
with guys this relationship he was shitty I
186
::[Robb]: went to the next guy he ended up being
shitty I was in this relationship it wasn't
187
::[Robb]: what I wanted
188
::[Tina m Garcia]: But who's
189
::[Robb]: I'm
190
::[Tina m Garcia]: the
191
::[Robb]: with
192
::[Tina m Garcia]: common denominator in all that?
She is.
193
::[Robb]: No, that's correct, but look, you're
picking someone, or there's something about
194
::[Robb]: that person, but at some point, you
have to be able to tell yourself, like, maybe
195
::[Robb]: I'm missing out on something that I
think is the weak man, or that maybe it's believable,
196
::[Robb]: because, I mean, and maybe I'm just
the crazy one, because I see people are. Like
197
::[Robb]: if someone acts a certain way to me,
generally I go that's just who they are. Like
198
::[Robb]: so if you're a bitch, generally you're
probably a bitch.
199
::[Tina m Garcia]: Right?
200
::[Robb]: And if you're not, you're probably like
most people, you pop off every blue moon. Because
201
::[Robb]: even the nice guy has his
202
::[Tina m Garcia]: And should. And should. Yeah.
203
::[Robb]: passive dude who's like, look, I just
wanna love you the way you are and that's okay.
204
::[Robb]: I just think it's wild, because I listen
to some other podcasts or watch shit that I
205
::[Robb]: see on YouTube and these girls are just
like,
206
::[Tina m Garcia]: Idiots.
207
::[Robb]: they're crazy. And again, not all the
women that I'm talking about that like this
208
::[Robb]: bad boy or end up with these guys that
are just shitty to them, they're not like this
209
::[Robb]: either that are just like, I'm independent
and I want, people that are traditionalists
210
::[Robb]: and still end up with this for whatever
reason. And on the flip side, those same people
211
::[Robb]: think they're broken. Like, there's
something wrong with me. It's like, it's not
212
::[Robb]: that there's something wrong with you.
You just end up in this perpetual circle instead
213
::[Robb]: of jumping out of the circle when you
have the chance. To me, when you have the chance
214
::[Robb]: to jump out of the airplane, fucking
jump out. It's okay. I mean,
215
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
216
::[Robb]: you may not have the best parachute,
but you still got one on. You know what I mean?
217
::[Robb]: You got a job. My friend in Vegas, she
was going through all this shit. She hadn't
218
::[Robb]: worked in fucking 14 years. She just
stayed at home all.
219
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
220
::[Robb]: So just imagine not working for that
long and then having to get back into the workforce.
221
::[Tina m Garcia]: gotta be
222
::[Robb]: It,
223
::[Tina m Garcia]: pretty scary, but
224
::[Robb]: oh no,
225
::[Tina m Garcia]: also
226
::[Robb]: it was insanely scary.
227
::[Tina m Garcia]: of course, but also very liberating.
You know, you get your freedom when you make
228
::[Tina m Garcia]: your own choices, when you
make your own money, when you when you do what
229
::[Tina m Garcia]: you need to do to take care
of yourself. There's a freedom in that as scary
230
::[Tina m Garcia]: as it is, you know, we ride
roller coasters with our hands up in there.
231
::[Tina m Garcia]: There's a reason for that.
It's good to be. It's good to be scared. It's
232
::[Tina m Garcia]: good to take risks. It's good
I thankfully she did that after 17 years and
233
::[Robb]: She
234
::[Tina m Garcia]: didn't
235
::[Robb]: did.
236
::[Tina m Garcia]: wait 20 years. You know
237
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
238
::[Tina m Garcia]: what I mean? It's like
239
::[Robb]: Yeah.
240
::[Tina m Garcia]: why would you want to limit
yourself in any way in on this earth at all
241
::[Tina m Garcia]: with with who we are is in
America as Americans like women don't need
242
::[Tina m Garcia]: to walk around with their face
hidden They don't have to they don't have to
243
::[Tina m Garcia]: have an escort. We could come
and go as we please and do our own thing. Why
244
::[Tina m Garcia]: Would they not?
245
::[Robb]: Yeah, I think that there, I'm sure it
was, again, scary and liberating. I mean,
246
::[Tina m Garcia]: Hmm
247
::[Robb]: to have the freedom of your head space
of not being in something you're not happy
248
::[Robb]: in has to
249
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
250
::[Robb]: be incredibly good. You're right, being
scared, it's funny, I just heard this on another
251
::[Robb]: podcast as well. You know that we go
on roller coasters because we get the adrenaline
252
::[Robb]: rush
253
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
254
::[Robb]: That's what our head actually thinks.
Like, I might die on this, so I'm gonna go
255
::[Robb]: do it. Or like the same with jumping
out of an airplane. And I think there is something
256
::[Robb]: to be scared. Like, look, when I got
divorced, and the same with you, because you're
257
::[Robb]: very freshly in it, and we were hanging
out at the time, like you took me to a high
258
::[Robb]: school reunion when I was going through
my divorce,
259
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
260
::[Robb]: I was utterly scared. I mean, because
I, I mean, it was such a fresh start, in this
261
::[Robb]: very bizarre headspace. But.
262
::[Tina m Garcia]: And we had a great time.
263
::[Robb]: I did. Well, we had a great time because
I was at a time where I literally said, fuck
264
::[Robb]: it.
265
::[Tina m Garcia]: That's
266
::[Robb]: Mostly
267
::[Tina m Garcia]: what you needed
268
::[Robb]: that night.
269
::[Tina m Garcia]: to say at the time though.
270
::[Robb]: I did.
271
::[Tina m Garcia]: To be honest, you did.
272
::[Robb]: I had to.
273
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
274
::[Robb]: So, you know, I ended up, it's funny
because we ended up going there and hung out
275
::[Robb]: with a friend of yours I didn't know.
276
::[Tina m Garcia]: who was excellent to take to
a reunion.
277
::[Robb]: It was. She was actually perfect
278
::[Robb]: now it's funny because she is very happily
married and has a child and everything,
279
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
280
::[Robb]: but at the time was very flirty with
me
281
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
282
::[Robb]: and I think that helped me back on the
horse. And I think, and for that night I think
283
::[Robb]: it was very real, like I don't think,
I think she was flirting with me just to flirt
284
::[Robb]: with me.
285
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
286
::[Robb]: So it definitely helped me get back
on the horse to where yeah, I was scared. I
287
::[Robb]: was scared of life, scared of getting
back into that part of my life.
288
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
289
::[Robb]: So to see that as being what, again,
perpetually the nice guy, because that's what
290
::[Robb]: I am. I mean, it's funny, I've been
called intense, which I have no problem with
291
::[Robb]: that. When I am pursuing someone, I'm
very intense. Or if I'm fighting for a relationship,
292
::[Robb]: I'm very intense. But I wholeheartedly
mean that intensity with only love.
293
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm. Right, right.
294
::[Robb]: It's not.
295
::[Robb]: It's not craziness. You know, like things
that I've heard recently just blow me away
296
::[Robb]: what men say to people to make them
feel absolutely horrible. Something that, it's
297
::[Robb]: just not me. Like my intensity is this,
my intensity is that I send flowers for you.
298
::[Robb]: I don't degrade you from a personal
standpoint about your body or this or that.
299
::[Robb]: To me it's just absurd.
300
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
301
::[Robb]: that men talk like this to the person
that they so-called love. To me, like this
302
::[Robb]: particular person who had told me a
story, I refuse now from now on to call that
303
::[Robb]: person her man, because he's not. I
mean, truly, he's a piece of shit, and that's
304
::[Robb]: probably how I'll refer to him, to her,
from now on, because
305
::[Tina m Garcia]: Some
306
::[Robb]: he's
307
::[Tina m Garcia]: people
308
::[Robb]: just,
309
::[Tina m Garcia]: deserve that though.
310
::[Robb]: again, things he's said and done And
I probably know a very small amount because
311
::[Robb]: she probably tells me a very small percentage
312
::[Tina m Garcia]: Right?
313
::[Robb]: based on our relationship. But the things,
and she's not the only one I've heard this
314
::[Robb]: from. This just happens to be that I've
heard within the last week. But in my life,
315
::[Robb]: I've heard it a lot, that these just
narcissistic pieces of shit that think that
316
::[Robb]: they can manipulate someone, call them
horrible names, and then text somebody later
317
::[Robb]: that like, oh, I'm sorry, but I really
do love you. It's like, wait. No.
318
::[Tina m Garcia]: We get what we accept though,
as people, if we accept that behavior, we're
319
::[Tina m Garcia]: always gonna get it. Hands
down.
320
::[Robb]: True, and I think what I was kind of,
well, with this particular person, again, she
321
::[Robb]: thinks she's broken, that there's something
wrong with her head.
322
::[Tina m Garcia]: There
323
::[Robb]: because...
324
::[Tina m Garcia]: is she needs to set her standard
higher.
325
::[Robb]: Probably, I mean without a doubt, if
326
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
327
::[Robb]: this piece of shit is doing these things.
I kinda said something to her the other day
328
::[Robb]: and I was kinda talking to her and giggling
and I said, you know, I'm not trying to be
329
::[Robb]: the white knight, but this, and she
goes, but you are trying to be the white knight,
330
::[Robb]: and I was like, yes, you're right, I
am trying to be the white knight, but that's
331
::[Robb]: because of this and this. I kinda have
her,
332
::[Robb]: what my relationship with her is a very
bizarre, much longer story that one day I'll
333
::[Robb]: have to sit and actually tell the whole
story
334
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
335
::[Robb]: when I am ready. So when I talk to her
about things, it's hard for me to separate
336
::[Robb]: how I feel about her and what I wanna
say. And I do my best to stay within both.
337
::[Robb]: to be in the middle of most things because
I don't want to come off as the guy riding
338
::[Robb]: on the horse, but I also want to say,
look, this guy's a fucking idiot and you'll
339
::[Robb]: be okay alone. And I've said that to
several people. I used to work with a girl
340
::[Robb]: who.
341
::[Robb]: Her husband,
342
::[Robb]: man, just was not a good person. And
again, they were very, very bad for each other.
343
::[Robb]: She wasn't, she was not helpful in that.
They would just drink too much and bicker and
344
::[Robb]: fight and like, lots of damage to the
house. As a matter of
345
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
346
::[Robb]: fact, it was in the valley. It's when
I worked. I worked over across the street from
347
::[Robb]: Jack in a Box on Roscoe.
348
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
349
::[Robb]: She had just, they were bad. And when
they were good, it was good to see them together.
350
::[Robb]: But when they were bad, it was, I mean,
utter chaos. Like, they would break shit all
351
::[Robb]: the time in their house. Doors, fucking
windows, cars, car windows, like crazy shit.
352
::[Robb]: like crazy people shit.
353
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mmm.
354
::[Robb]: So I've seen this for a long time and
funny, they're not together anymore, what do
355
::[Robb]: you know?
356
::[Tina m Garcia]: I wonder
357
::[Robb]: People,
358
::[Tina m Garcia]: why.
359
::[Robb]: yeah, yeah, because you know, some people
are just flammable liquids and matches.
360
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
361
::[Robb]: And as long as the match isn't lit,
the flammable liquid's fine. But as soon as
362
::[Robb]: that one little match gets lighted up,
goes to chaos. And to this day, and I think
363
::[Robb]: she's been divorced.
364
::[Robb]: maybe seven years, she still has issues
finding a man. And again, not to defend her
365
::[Robb]: against any man, she's a hard pill to
swallow. She's very rough, very independent,
366
::[Robb]: very, er. And I kind of step back sometimes
and just go to her and go, you gotta fucking
367
::[Robb]: relax. Like stop, and she chases bad
boys. fucking M.O.
368
::[Tina m Garcia]: Is she
369
::[Robb]: She
370
::[Tina m Garcia]: trying
371
::[Robb]: like.
372
::[Tina m Garcia]: to fix people? Because that's
another thing women do. They'll
373
::[Robb]: Uh.
374
::[Tina m Garcia]: get a broken person so they
could fix them. Like, why would you want to
375
::[Tina m Garcia]: fix somebody that's broken?
Let them fix themselves.
376
::[Robb]: Yeah, this one doesn't try to fix people.
She just likes bad boys. She likes, you know,
377
::[Robb]: skater dudes or punk guys or like, you
know, that style of man, which is probably
378
::[Robb]: great when you were 17. You know what
I mean? Like,
379
::[Tina m Garcia]: And even then, was it great?
Come
380
::[Robb]: it
381
::[Tina m Garcia]: on.
382
::[Robb]: probably wasn't great, but it wasn't,
you couldn't get too damaged from it
383
::[Tina m Garcia]: Right,
384
::[Robb]: when you were
385
::[Tina m Garcia]: right.
386
::[Robb]: young. When you're doing that in your
30s and 40s and 50s, You're not helping any
387
::[Robb]: situation. And again, maybe just because
I look at the view of, like what do you go
388
::[Robb]: into a relationship for now? There should
only be one goal, is to settle down. I don't
389
::[Robb]: wanna date perpetually forever. Whatever
that means, a commitment. Marriage, if that's
390
::[Robb]: your thing, it is for me, I would love
to get married again, if I found the right
391
::[Robb]: person. or a serious commitment to where
maybe you're not married, married, but you
392
::[Robb]: share everything, all your bills, you
wanna wear rings to show people that you're
393
::[Robb]: together. Whatever that is, some kind
of serious commitment. If you're not in a relationship
394
::[Robb]: now to have that serious commitment,
to me, you're crazy. At our age, at 30s, 40s,
395
::[Robb]: 50s. If you're in your 20s, fuck around
all you want. Those are your fuck around years.
396
::[Tina m Garcia]: Hehe.
397
::[Robb]: Some people didn't have those fuck around
years though. The girl that I'm talking about
398
::[Robb]: that I worked with, she had children
early. So she didn't have that time to be messing
399
::[Robb]: around because she had a child at 18,
19 years old. So all of her 20s were raising
400
::[Robb]: kid and then another kid and then another
kid. She happened to have three kids. A lot
401
::[Robb]: of that also goes into that too, where
people who had children early are trying to
402
::[Robb]: party later on in their life or open
up their life later on, where that's gotta
403
::[Robb]: be a difficult thing. Like, I didn't
have my boy until I was 30, so I had a lot
404
::[Robb]: of big years, and then now I'm looking
to, look, everyone loves to go out and have
405
::[Robb]: a good time. I have no problem with
that. But that can't be a lifestyle. You can
406
::[Robb]: travel, you can do things, but partying
every weekend is not good for anyone. And my
407
::[Robb]: friend in the valley, she, that's her
thing. And again, we'll grow out of that. But
408
::[Robb]: I think the growing out part also is
finding somebody who's not perpetually the
409
::[Robb]: villain or the bad guy, or who's knocking
you down all the time. And I'm not saying that
410
::[Robb]: like every, you know, or someone who
would be considered a good guy is a great guy.
411
::[Robb]: That's not necessarily true either.
But I think the foundation should be, he's
412
::[Robb]: not a dick. Like, he doesn't say bad
things about how I look every day. He doesn't
413
::[Robb]: knock me down. He doesn't get violent
at all. I mean, these should be normal things
414
::[Robb]: in society where they don't seem to
be.
415
::[Tina m Garcia]: I don't know. It's... Listen,
it... people pick people for like the most
416
::[Tina m Garcia]: lame reasons, let's be honest.
Like I've even gone out with guys for the lamest
417
::[Tina m Garcia]: of reasons. I really don't
even need one to be honest with you. To make
418
::[Tina m Garcia]: a mistake, to do something,
you know, it happens. You have to learn whatever
419
::[Tina m Garcia]: you're supposed
420
::[Tina m Garcia]: yourself if you're staying
stuck if you're trying to save somebody if
421
::[Tina m Garcia]: you're damn captain save a
hoe take off the cape and move away from the
422
::[Tina m Garcia]: person that you're trying to
fix like it's not going to happen you have
423
::[Tina m Garcia]: to like love yourself you have
to love you know you have to you have to love
424
::[Tina m Garcia]: yourself enough to say look
it i want you in my life but if you can't be
425
::[Tina m Garcia]: in my life in in a positive
way get the fuck out
426
::[Robb]: Right.
427
::[Tina m Garcia]: and and i think that we we
that because we don't love ourselves enough.
428
::[Tina m Garcia]: Let's just face it. I've seen
so many women put up with so much shit, but
429
::[Tina m Garcia]: they have the lowest of self-esteem.
They have all these problems. They, they think
430
::[Tina m Garcia]: they're worthless. They think
they're ugly. Oh my God. If I have to hear
431
::[Tina m Garcia]: somebody talk about how ugly
their ears are again, I cut hair. I don't,
432
::[Tina m Garcia]: nobody even looks at ears.
I look at everything and I don't see ears.
433
::[Robb]: Right.
434
::[Tina m Garcia]: They quit making a freaking
problem out of everything. Own who you you
435
::[Tina m Garcia]: got to do so you feel better
about it and and get over this shit so that
436
::[Tina m Garcia]: you do pick better so that
you are making better choices so that you're
437
::[Tina m Garcia]: not somebody's mother you know
you have
438
::[Robb]: Right.
439
::[Tina m Garcia]: to you have to just stop being
stupid stupid that's what they're being they're
440
::[Tina m Garcia]: being stupid you
441
::[Robb]: it.
442
::[Tina m Garcia]: want to be stupid you want
to be abused you want to get hit you want to
443
::[Tina m Garcia]: be with bad people do it do
it but don't put that on anybody other than
444
::[Tina m Garcia]: yourself because you're making
stupid choices
445
::[Robb]: Right, and vice versa.
446
::[Tina m Garcia]: Yeah!
447
::[Robb]: If you're a dude who's in the same situation
448
::[Tina m Garcia]: Get the
449
::[Robb]: where
450
::[Tina m Garcia]: fuck out.
451
::[Robb]: you gotta bail out.
452
::[Tina m Garcia]: Seriously, I am so tired of
hearing men say men don't get treated well
453
::[Tina m Garcia]: after like a certain number
of years.
454
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
455
::[Tina m Garcia]: They kind of like They're kind
of overlooked and underappreciated
456
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
457
::[Tina m Garcia]: and and they're not happy,
but they won't say shit because they're in
458
::[Tina m Garcia]: it Why would you want to stay
with that? And we're getting old who wants
459
::[Tina m Garcia]: to sit on the couch with somebody
that doesn't even want to be around you
460
::[Robb]: Sure.
461
::[Tina m Garcia]: They lost interest a long time
ago and having sex with you. They're not going
462
::[Tina m Garcia]: to want to sit with you either
463
::[Robb]: I tried telling somebody this the other
night, actually I was sitting down with two
464
::[Robb]: women and we were talking about things
about like that. Like looks are great. Look,
465
::[Robb]: I absolutely think pretty women are
great and the person
466
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
467
::[Robb]: I'm talking about, I think is utterly
gorgeous. But if you're not stimulating my
468
::[Robb]: brain, it doesn't matter. Your looks
will fade. I don't care how much shit you do
469
::[Robb]: to yourself. They're gonna fade. We're
all gonna
470
::[Tina m Garcia]: They're
471
::[Robb]: get
472
::[Tina m Garcia]: supposed
473
::[Robb]: old.
474
::[Tina m Garcia]: to.
475
::[Robb]: We're all gonna
476
::[Tina m Garcia]: They're
477
::[Robb]: get
478
::[Tina m Garcia]: supposed
479
::[Robb]: gray.
480
::[Tina m Garcia]: to. Ahem.
481
::[Robb]: No, but I mean, but, and look, and like
I'm saying, she's gorgeous, stunning to me.
482
::[Robb]: I think she's absolutely beautiful.
One of the, you know, I would, top notch. But
483
::[Robb]: I can talk to her. And that turns me
on way more than anything else.
484
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
485
::[Robb]: And I think that that's the bigger thing.
And if you're with somebody who stimulating
486
::[Robb]: your brain
487
::[Robb]: is the first thing. And maybe, you know,
I think just by the things I listen to, men
488
::[Robb]: bail quicker. Men get out of things
much quicker. Before marriage, let's say they're
489
::[Robb]: dating. I think guys,
490
::[Tina m Garcia]: Oh, before marriage, because
491
::[Robb]: before
492
::[Tina m Garcia]: after marriage,
493
::[Robb]: marriage,
494
::[Tina m Garcia]: they don't.
495
::[Robb]: they don't. No, for sure, I have no
problem saying that. That is for absolutely
496
::[Robb]: sure. But I think it's because guys
are worried of shit. And that's just being
497
::[Robb]: honest as well.
498
::[Tina m Garcia]: They're gonna lose it staying
with her too. She's gonna
499
::[Robb]: No but
500
::[Tina m Garcia]: spend
501
::[Robb]: sh-
502
::[Tina m Garcia]: it. It's just the way it is.
They're not gonna get all of their money anytime.
503
::[Robb]: It, no, no, no, no, but your, I think
that the whole thing of going through the divorce
504
::[Robb]: is what hurts the most because you are
gonna lose. And again, before we get too deep
505
::[Robb]: into that, that's a whole other conversation.
I think just with kids and everything else.
506
::[Robb]: But pre-marriage, guys will just bail
out. If they think they're with somebody who
507
::[Robb]: isn't going to be a long run, they just
bail. They'll find somebody else. And again,
508
::[Robb]: I'm generalizing, this isn't everyone,
so listeners don't freak the fuck out. Women
509
::[Robb]: will stay longer to see if they can
fix them. Men fix problems,
510
::[Tina m Garcia]: Yes.
511
::[Robb]: women try to fix people.
512
::[Tina m Garcia]: Yep, I agree
513
::[Robb]: And
514
::[Tina m Garcia]: with that.
515
::[Robb]: my friend that I was talking to said
something to me that should stand clear more
516
::[Robb]: than anything. Her piece of shit told
her deserves a better man. And I said that
517
::[Robb]: was the best fucking thing he's ever
said to you, because he's right.
518
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
519
::[Robb]: You deserve a better man.
520
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm.
521
::[Robb]: So take his shitty advice and bail the
fuck out. Because she said something to me.
522
::[Robb]: She goes, you know, I keep trying to
turn pieces of shit into butterflies. And my
523
::[Robb]: advice was find a fucking butterfly.
524
::[Tina m Garcia]: Yeah, start there.
525
::[Robb]: Because we're out there. And if you're
scared, listener, that you can't do things
526
::[Robb]: on your own or the in-between going
from this piece of shit to a better man, you
527
::[Robb]: can do it. All of
528
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
529
::[Robb]: you. My friend in Vegas has done it,
she's doing fine. My friend in the Valley,
530
::[Robb]: she's doing okay.
531
::[Tina m Garcia]: I didn't think I would be doing
as well as I'm doing. I honestly didn't.
532
::[Robb]: and you are as well.
533
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm, you know, you know what's
funny is not only am I doing well, but he's
534
::[Tina m Garcia]: doing well.
535
::[Robb]: Yes.
536
::[Tina m Garcia]: And nothing got so damaged
that it's left with regret. There's, we did
537
::[Tina m Garcia]: what we did, you know, we left
when we left.
538
::[Tina m Garcia]: for each other for
539
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
540
::[Tina m Garcia]: cutting our losses when we
did as hard
541
::[Robb]: Yes.
542
::[Tina m Garcia]: as it was. Man, I, I, I don't
know how I've done it the last three years
543
::[Tina m Garcia]: because it's been three years
already. I,
544
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
545
::[Tina m Garcia]: I can't, I, I don't know how
I did it but it wasn't all that hard and I
546
::[Robb]: Right.
547
::[Tina m Garcia]: lost everything because of
COVID. Like my job, my car, everything and
548
::[Tina m Garcia]: man, man, people just need
to have more, faith in themselves.
549
::[Robb]: I agree.
550
::[Tina m Garcia]: especially women.
551
::[Robb]: I can say a lot of, actually I can't
even say a lot of bad things about my ex-wife,
552
::[Robb]: but I can tell you that at 40 years
old, she decided she wasn't happy in a marriage
553
::[Robb]: and left and started a new life. And
you know who's doing well? Her.
554
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
555
::[Robb]: And you know who else is doing well?
Me.
556
::[Tina m Garcia]: You. Yeah.
557
::[Robb]: It's okay. It's okay. And again, maybe,
now here's the flip side of that. I'm still
558
::[Robb]: a nice guy. Her new husband is nice
to me, but I've heard otherwise in the scheme
559
::[Robb]: of things. So maybe she just didn't
want a nice guy and she wanted to fight all
560
::[Robb]: the time. More power to her. I don't
wanna fight all the time. I wanna
561
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-mm.
562
::[Robb]: find somebody that is good for me mentally
and physically stimulates me mentally stimulates
563
::[Robb]: me that you can work on each other together.
I don't want to fix anyone either. It's not
564
::[Robb]: my
565
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-mm.
566
::[Robb]: job to fix her at all, but I will hold
her hand while she's fixing herself. Those
567
::[Tina m Garcia]: And
568
::[Robb]: are the
569
::[Tina m Garcia]: see,
570
::[Robb]: things.
571
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm okay with everybody being
who they are right now, because I think life
572
::[Tina m Garcia]: changes everything to begin
with, but I want somebody that I like being
573
::[Tina m Garcia]: around,
574
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
575
::[Tina m Garcia]: period. Like, it's not rocket
science.
576
::[Robb]: But what I mean by being themselves,
that's okay. But I'm saying that if you want
577
::[Robb]: to fix yourself,
578
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
579
::[Robb]: I'll be there with you to let you fix
yourself. I love you either way. Whether you
580
::[Robb]: fix yourself or not is irrelevant. But
581
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
582
::[Robb]: if you feel a certain way and you think
there's something that you want to change or
583
::[Robb]: fix in your life, I'm going to be there
to help you. to do it, but I'll stand with
584
::[Robb]: you because that's what partners do
or mates do. I'm there for you either way,
585
::[Robb]: whether I agree or if I don't agree,
but be upfront with who you are. This is who
586
::[Robb]: I am. I am intense. I have no problem
with it. I'm sending you flowers and writing
587
::[Robb]: you poems, but I'm not fucking kicking
your windows in. It's not who I am.
588
::[Tina m Garcia]: Thanks for watching!
589
::[Robb]: I'm not going to tell you that I don't
like your, you know, whatever. your ass a certain
590
::[Robb]: way. I don't care about that, it's irrelevant
to me. As long as you're coming to the table
591
::[Robb]: and stimulating my brain and we're having
meaningful conversations for however long,
592
::[Robb]: hopefully the rest of my life, that's
what I want. I just want people to understand
593
::[Robb]: out there that the good guys aren't
bad. We're not weak,
594
::[Tina m Garcia]: And no, and I think
595
::[Robb]: and we're
596
::[Tina m Garcia]: I
597
::[Robb]: not.
598
::[Tina m Garcia]: think ultimately people know
that I think ultimately women know that But
599
::[Tina m Garcia]: at the same time They're you
know, they're coming from a different place
600
::[Tina m Garcia]: in their head men men are much
easier on themselves than women are Like women
601
::[Robb]: I
602
::[Tina m Garcia]: are
603
::[Robb]: agree.
604
::[Tina m Garcia]: really harsh like harsh harsh
on themselves like to the point where it's
605
::[Tina m Garcia]: it's disgusting Like to hear
what they could come up with to be so mean
606
::[Tina m Garcia]: about I'm like damn really
hates herself, truly. I don't think guys get
607
::[Tina m Garcia]: like that. I mean, now we're
getting to the point where guys have beer bellies,
608
::[Tina m Garcia]: you know, because of our age
and stuff and
609
::[Robb]: Sure.
610
::[Tina m Garcia]: they're like, yeah, it took
me two years to get this belly, you know, and
611
::[Robb]: Yeah.
612
::[Tina m Garcia]: I think that that's fantastic
that they're more okay with themselves. Women
613
::[Tina m Garcia]: still are not.
614
::[Robb]: I will tell you this though, I think
men hide it better because
615
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm sure.
616
::[Robb]: men don't talk to each other about,
oh, I look like shit or whatever. Men look
617
::[Robb]: in the mirror and kill themselves inside
while they're going through that. We just hide
618
::[Robb]: it different, we hide everything different.
Men,
619
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
620
::[Robb]: because of how we're supposed to be
in a relationship or in life, we hide way more,
621
::[Robb]: way more than women do.
622
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm sure.
623
::[Robb]: And that's just being honest. Like I
have, we all have that issue. Again, I just
624
::[Robb]: think women project it way more.
625
::[Tina m Garcia]: Well, yeah, okay, if you're,
if you still go through all that stuff, looking
626
::[Tina m Garcia]: in the mirror, like I get it,
but you'll still put out confidence. Women
627
::[Tina m Garcia]: don't put out the confidence.
And I think that that's what's attractive to
628
::[Tina m Garcia]: people. It's
629
::[Robb]: Right.
630
::[Tina m Garcia]: not like what, what we look
like, essentially. I mean, there is definitely,
631
::[Tina m Garcia]: there needs to be that, that
gravitational pull towards one another, that,
632
::[Tina m Garcia]: that initial attraction.
633
::[Tina m Garcia]: it's more about like the person
it should be about the person and not
634
::[Robb]: Mm-hmm.
635
::[Tina m Garcia]: what they look like because
you're right looks fade you know I was looking
636
::[Tina m Garcia]: at pictures of me the other
day going wow I didn't at the time I didn't
637
::[Tina m Garcia]: think I was good looking and
I was like wow it was really cute and had no
638
::[Tina m Garcia]: idea because I was too busy
beating on myself
639
::[Robb]: Right.
640
::[Tina m Garcia]: now at my age I'm like I don't
really give a shit can I just find somebody
641
::[Tina m Garcia]: to have fun with and not worry
about all this stuff because I could beat on
642
::[Tina m Garcia]: myself later if need be.
643
::[Robb]: Yeah, I mean, look, looking back at
when you're young is the hardest thing. Like
644
::[Robb]: I don't do that anymore. That's, that's
ridiculous. I'm not that person anymore. I've
645
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
646
::[Robb]: I'm, I'm better actually. I'm better
647
::[Tina m Garcia]: That's
648
::[Robb]: than I was
649
::[Tina m Garcia]: right.
650
::[Robb]: then. Um, I kind of said that to this
person as well, like the other day, like we
651
::[Robb]: were talking about things in her life
and she was talking about this piece of shit.
652
::[Robb]: And look, I'm, I'm all up for confidence,
but I did say something to her. I said, better
653
::[Robb]: than your man, period. And I know it.
And I generally don't say things like that
654
::[Robb]: because I'm not,
655
::[Robb]: I don't have a big ego at all. But in
this case, I had to say it because I know I
656
::[Robb]: am. And then,
657
::[Tina m Garcia]: And it's okay to be a man and
hold your own.
658
::[Robb]: For sure,
659
::[Tina m Garcia]: And you should.
660
::[Robb]: but I thought it was, for me, it was
more like, look, I was puffing my chest up
661
::[Robb]: and I was white knighting and I have
no problem with it. Sometimes you need the
662
::[Robb]: white knight to come save you. Regardless
of, and independent women who say that they
663
::[Robb]: don't need that shit, you're lying.
664
::[Tina m Garcia]: No,
665
::[Robb]: Every
666
::[Tina m Garcia]: there's bedtimes.
667
::[Robb]: blue moon, every blue moon, you have
to have someone
668
::[Tina m Garcia]: Mm-hmm.
669
::[Robb]: come save you, and that's okay. Don't
be afraid to be saved. Because sometimes you're
670
::[Robb]: in a shitty situation, you need a little
saving. It doesn't make you weak to a man.
671
::[Robb]: It just means, yeah, I need a little
help right now. And I think that maybe the
672
::[Robb]: good guy needs to do that a little bit
more. It's okay. The good guy isn't a facade,
673
::[Robb]: it isn't a fallacy. There are good guys
that don't have ulterior motive and they were
674
::[Robb]: real.
675
::[Tina m Garcia]: They're they're few and far
between though Rob.
676
::[Robb]: Maybe,
677
::[Tina m Garcia]: I mean
678
::[Robb]: that may be
679
::[Tina m Garcia]: they
680
::[Robb]: true.
681
::[Tina m Garcia]: are they are but I think that's
We've as a society we've kind of poisoned both
682
::[Tina m Garcia]: sides, you know
683
::[Robb]: For
684
::[Tina m Garcia]: and
685
::[Robb]: sure.
686
::[Tina m Garcia]: that's we're gonna have to
make a comeback on all of these things that
687
::[Tina m Garcia]: we're doing wrong
688
::[Robb]: Here's...
689
::[Tina m Garcia]: and Get back to where we start
loving each other again instead of like being
690
::[Tina m Garcia]: worried that we're gonna be
wrong
691
::[Robb]: Here, y'all know, agree. I agree, look.
But I think, yes, you're right, being wronged
692
::[Robb]: is a killer. And a lot of these fucking
shitheads are wronging people.
693
::[Tina m Garcia]: but we're expecting it. You
know what I know about men in my life? I don't
694
::[Tina m Garcia]: expect them to be anything
but wonderful to me. And guess what? They are.
695
::[Tina m Garcia]: They're wonderful to me because
696
::[Robb]: Right,
697
::[Tina m Garcia]: that's what
698
::[Robb]: right.
699
::[Tina m Garcia]: I expect.
700
::[Robb]: Sure.
701
::[Tina m Garcia]: So if we're going to make,
if I started to say, yeah, Rob is a real dick,
702
::[Tina m Garcia]: you'd have a problem with it.
You would say, you know, you
703
::[Robb]: I
704
::[Tina m Garcia]: would
705
::[Robb]: would.
706
::[Tina m Garcia]: have something to say and you
would start acting like a dick to prove me
707
::[Tina m Garcia]: right. That's, I don't do that
to you. We don't have to do that.
708
::[Robb]: Right.
709
::[Tina m Garcia]: I would do that to you because
you've been the white knight at times that
710
::[Tina m Garcia]: saved my ass
711
::[Robb]: Right.
712
::[Tina m Garcia]: going back to like 18 years
old
713
::[Robb]: Right.
714
::[Tina m Garcia]: so we we get what we expect
we get what we give we get what we put out
715
::[Tina m Garcia]: and we need to start owning
our own shit and as women like quit being so
716
::[Tina m Garcia]: damn weak that you think you
can't do for yourself because you can
717
::[Robb]: Well,
718
::[Tina m Garcia]: you can
719
::[Robb]: you're proving it, for sure.
720
::[Tina m Garcia]: yeah I'm proving it I freaking
I never went through a divorce even go about
721
::[Tina m Garcia]: it. And then how did I do that
where we didn't have not one argument? You
722
::[Tina m Garcia]: know, there were so many times
I had to go, nope, not today and walk out of
723
::[Tina m Garcia]: the house when we were supposed
to get together to work on things. But I couldn't
724
::[Tina m Garcia]: be nice. But guess
725
::[Robb]: Right.
726
::[Tina m Garcia]: what? Because I put that expectation
on myself, he followed my lead. We didn't blow
727
::[Tina m Garcia]: up everything. And
728
::[Robb]: Right.
729
::[Tina m Garcia]: we could have, we could have,
we,
730
::[Robb]: Oh,
731
::[Tina m Garcia]: you
732
::[Robb]: I'm
733
::[Tina m Garcia]: know,
734
::[Robb]: sure.
735
::[Tina m Garcia]: things that were in our marriage,
we could have blown it
736
::[Robb]: and
737
::[Tina m Garcia]: What do you expect and what
do you accept? Go with that. Raise the freaking
738
::[Tina m Garcia]: bar already.
739
::[Robb]: All right, we're gonna leave it just
on that. That was the
740
::[Tina m Garcia]: I'm
741
::[Robb]: perfect
742
::[Tina m Garcia]: gonna go.
743
::[Robb]: wording to end that. Raise the bar a
little bit.
744
::[Tina m Garcia]: Raise the bar.
745
::[Robb]: All righty. Well, after another nice
50 minutes, it was nice to be back on and
