Speaker 1 (00:02):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
Phone Presents Morning Show. I feel like we have the
perfect mix of people for the question I need to
ask because we have three people in happy relationships where

(00:23):
they at the two out of three and happy relationships four, one, two, three,
Five people in this room are in relationships. That's for
only three of them are married relationship. I'm married. And
then we have people that, well, you're in a relationship,
but you're kind of different because you're living, You're kind
of different. I thought I was onto the happy you

(00:45):
might be in a happy relationship, but I guess I'm
talking about the people that live with their significant us.
So here's the question which is going to be your
answer to this question? At what point can you veto
when you have to do something with your significant other?
So this weekend I have, well I don't have, but

(01:06):
it's a friends giving. Yet you're still in the honeymoon phase.
I think you can veto anything you want whenever. Yes
you can, but to live in equality and harmony and peace,
it's too early to say I don't want to. That's
what I figured. Wait a second, So, so everything needs

(01:27):
to be made in a group decision when you're living
with someone. Is that what I'm going Okay, so that's
the problem, and let me get this straight. I actually
am excited to go, but I can tell that this
is already verging on. Hey, we have this plan, we
have this we're doing. I mean, if you want to
set the precedent for the rest of your relationship, you
say no. And but you have to stick to those
guns and always say no when you want to say no.

(01:50):
And let's hope that you don't ever want to get
laid for the next like two weeks, because you're not
gonna get any Okay, So you see Froggy, The look
on your face just tells me that you've mixed your
insist and you know you're gonna lose. I've done this.
There's been times that I don't want to do. Like
you have to pick your battles. How important is this
to you? I think this is something it's really important,
and you put your foot down. But if it's something
you're going to go, wow, I'll just get over it

(02:10):
in a couple of days. I'll go and pretend like
I like being here even though I don't. Or maybe
you kind of meet in the middle. I'll go but
let's only stay X amount of time. Yeah, okay, at
least there's a little bit of a you feel like
you're getting something to you don't feel like you're all
there fight the bullet for this one, because it's not that.
Let me get this straight, I actually kind of want
to go to this. But why is there any bullet

(02:31):
biting just because you will live or dwell with something,
Because because when you're in a relationship, especially when you
live with somebody, even when you're a relationship period, there
should be some give and take and you're gonna Unfortunately,
that's not a relationship you have. That's scary. That's a
relationship if you could do the other things. But here's
the thing. Sometimes something like this is a couple events,

(02:53):
sounds like a couple events. Your significant other really want
you to go to it. It means a lot to her,
and that's why sometimes you have to compromise and do
Like I learned this very early into my marriage. Like
I was doing nothing that she wanted to do. She
wasn't doing anything I wanted to do, and so I
would say, why don't you just go by yourself and
enjoy yourself? And she said, well, if I'm gonna go
everywhere by myself, then I might as well be by myself,
so we have to compromise. Passive aggressive to me. No,

(03:17):
but it's true. Sorry, if you do everything by yourself,
and you might as well not be in a relationhip everything.
But there are some not the sex. No, No, you
do that by yourself, you know. I gotta be honest.
I don't even want to do whose friends? Is this
friends giving? This is Heather's friend, my girlfriends. But it's
a holiday. Are there gonna be other couples? There's gonna

(03:39):
be other couples. Then you go, okay, then if she
goes by herself, she might as well not be in
a relation. Hey, where did Nate go? No question, that's
the exactly Elvis's holiday parties coming up? Right? You want
to bring her, You want to show her your co
workers and a nice place we're going to and get
her lickered up, you know, so waterfaller. Anyway, how did

(04:05):
you like it if she said, I don't really know
your co workers? What? You just go, I'm gonna go
watch a movie you want to go? That's that is bullshit? Okay? Yeah?
Better and betters. The one time you say no, to
Harman Christmas holiday party, whatever you want to call I
want to call it a holiday party as a jew. Okay, okay,

(04:25):
so all right, So the holiday party is one of
those things that you want to get. Everyone want to
go to, want to do you want to go because
you work here. If you don't work with the person
to them, it's the same thing as Nate going to
her friend's house from people he doesn't know, overwhelming group
of people. If you don't know anything, it's a bunch
of strangers drinking and eating and you have to force
to have conversation. Like Greg, he's going to put his

(04:46):
ass in a reef. So so then, so what you're
saying then with this with this friend's giving deal is
it's her friends. You don't know any one of them,
and now because you guys live together, you're forced to
make you it's a there's just weren't living together, you
wouldn't have this problem. She just would go on her own.
He also wouldn't be having sex four to five nights

(05:08):
a week for now. Yeah, that's going well, it wears off.
You better get a neck brace because that's going to
stop so fast. Why is Nate doing live commercials? For
klean X and Jargon's um, here's here's the thing. You
may go to this thing and you may meet a
really cool husband or boyfriend at the thing and make

(05:28):
a friend, or you might meet another girl. You just
stop building your friendship in the relations that swinging Sally,
she's a three. Actually, I'm actually really looking forward to
that aspect because she actually has cool friends, right, So
I'm looking forward to it. I just didn't know at
what point the assumption that hey, you're gonna be coming
to this with me, You're gonna be doing this this

(05:49):
relationship I'm living with, We're gonna be going to rob
You're you're living with her? But is there is there
a good chance of a future together? Wow? Longest right,
this is that she's still alive and the youngest are you?
Are you? Are you okay? For example, when you have

(06:09):
an old car, you start this is not you're not
even five words, and it's a good question from is
this a least with an option to buy? When you
have an old car, you start looking for new cars,
but you still like the car you have, but you're like,
you're open to another vehicle because you know it's going
to be happening soon. When you have a brand new car,
you don't even look at car commercials. You don't care.

(06:31):
My question is, are you still to looking for vehicles?
Are you very happy with the current vehicle that I'm
extremely happy with the car along at Frog, I mean,
you're very my girlfriend to a used car. I love
my Jalapi. However, kidding, I'm kidding. No, I'm very happy
in the relationship that I'm in. I don't know why

(06:53):
she stays sort of like an old car because when
she was in the studio he was pushing it for behind. Yeah,
it's a lot a pleasure here. What you should talk about?
Another topic that Nate's got going on the Christmas present
that he oh, this is bullshit idea, but she's already
been like, oh, don't worry, I want this. Yeah, this
is bullshit. So the whole ever since I started dating,

(07:13):
I'll keep little notes. I don't know how you guys relationships,
you keep little notes. I've got this list of things
I want to buy, and one of them when she
was on vacation by herself, when she was at work,
and she went shopping in France right when she was
there for work, some other guy bought that butt it
for her. Shut the funk up. You're a beautiful girl.

(07:33):
Lets me buy you something, all right? She bought what
I was going to buy for herself a week ago.
I mean, this is within the Christmas window engagement. What
did you say that? I said, Hey, what the hell?
I was gonna buy that for you. She goes, Oh, no,
that's fine, you can buy me this though, that's not

(07:54):
how this works. More expensive this work? Was it more expensive?
It was more expensive? It was, oh, don't buy me.
He comes to me and he goes, um, how much
do you think this costs? And I'm like, oh no,
those are expendum and he's like, oh, ship, isn't a
form on salary you're talking about. I need to get
another job. So nate in buying a gift in a relationship. Unfortunately,

(08:19):
the rules go up until let's just talk about Christmas,
up until Christmas Eve, because until then, I mean, you
might have a birthday like Ali's birthday. My wife, Ali's
birthday is on Thanksgiving, so I have to worry about
Thanksgiving and Christmas. I know she's not gonna buy anything
between that, so I'm safe. But for you, you have
up until Christmas Eve for her to buy whatever she wants.
Damn it. I had such a great idea and now

(08:41):
I'm being forced to buy this other thing that I
don't even want to about what I want to get
her though, But don't you want to give her what
she wants? Does Robin drop hints or do you always
get scratching my head? Yeah? No, you know you know what. Listen, Okay,
myself on my own ship whenever I want, and she

(09:03):
buys herself. So, Danielle, how does this work for you?
Because you're the one person that can really say, do
you give Sheldon the exact item, like the link to Amazon? Usually? No? No,
I'll tell you what. I don't know how Sheldon finds
stuff to buy Danielle, because Danielle buys her own ship.
Every fifteen minutes, Daniel's buying something else, whether it's Amazon,

(09:25):
Danielle this, whether it's shopping at Amazon, whatever. Dude, every
time I turn around, Daniels, yet you tell Lisa every
day you guys go over each other what you're buying
for yourselves. At the end of the year, I have
nothing to buy Lisa. I don't even know what to
buy her because she's already bought everything she wants. That's
a good quality to hal. She's independent. She buys her
own stuff. You know what, you should be independent. She's

(09:45):
buying her own stuff. Because those credit card seals come
to my name, Yeah, I'm responsible for them. Does your
girlfriend have a Pinterest board? Uh? No, not not aware
of Should I be aware of them? There is your
key into what to get her that you don't have
to ask. I'm actually pretty good at taking notes. I'm

(10:06):
actually very good at taking notes. I'm like, oh, well,
here's what else we do. Are you going to meet
her best friends at this party? Uh? Some of them? Yeah?
Oh no, I've already figured that out. You gotta ask now.
I'm m her friends, which I know see him sounds
very freezy, but I'm not. I'm trying to find benefit her.
I've been to I've been with my husband for something.
We've been together twenty years this year, so I kind

(10:28):
of feel like if I want something, I can forward
him a link or whatever at this point. But back
in the day, it was when we first started dating,
it was all about like surprising each other that I
always I always get surprises. He always surprises me with
lots of things and I do the same thing too.
I always get stuff. Even though I know there is
one specific thing he wants, I'm still going to get

(10:48):
him a couple of other things. That home depot has
read washerton dryers, and they even have a red dice
and you can buy. Actually that I'm saying I did
buyer is a vacuum. Is that wrong? I didn't get
her a vacuum cleaner. No, it's a nice vacuum. What
you meant, what you mean to say, is you got

(11:09):
it for your apartment together. Okay, so I got this
for us hunting. That's correct. If you opened a vacuum cleaner.
Let's just say, all right, what would your initial reaction
be if someone bought you a vacuum cleaner? Actually, for
me person, that would be very excited. I love vacuum.
I love vacuum. Scott Scott bought his wife rumba. I

(11:30):
thought she was gonna throw it at his hand dance. No,
you know the little the Spanish lady comes over it.
Vacuum is the room. You know that the little thing,
that room, that thing she almost throw his head. Why

(11:50):
because you don't give someone a vacuum, It depends the gift.
It depends. My wife really wants a roomba. So if
I got it first, you be like, oh my god,
you heard me ask for that. That's a fool She didn't.
If she did, she didn't say it like, honey, here's
something to help you clean the house. That's not a
gift unless they asked specifically for I wanted Dyson. I've

(12:10):
never asked for one, but I want mixer. But you're
keeping your house and she doesn't live there. This is
for you when you make me cookie at the time
that you know if it was the best gift in
the world. But now all she does is use the
I bought Robin some underwear their male if she can

(12:31):
take them off, but I bought them. Hey that mixer
you bought. I'm feeling a cake tonight. Do you think? Also?
I gave Robin one of those coupons for BackRub that
she can give me a BackRub anytime she hands me
the coupon. Scary actually gives very very nice. You do,
Actually you do, because I know you've You've told me
the things you're getting. What's the most expensive gifts you've bought?

(12:57):
Just tell us the dollar finger because I know you know,
And include trips that have to be uh, diamonds, diamond
earrings and maybe um m m oh not Christian Lubatan shoes. No, no, no,
it was a it was a It was a handbag
from where? Man? Why why am I telling you guys?

(13:25):
How many more minutes could we have given you to
list off expensive that nobody else? That was just an
insighted discari brain. I got the whole diamond instead of
mentioning one expensive gift. He kind of worked this way
up the ladder of each nice thing. The most people
I got her, he does. He does every year think
about what he's gotten her in the past because he

(13:45):
doesn't like to repeat. He like, there's something different. You
know what it's called, right, what's that hashtag? Distraction? No,
she's like, oh, I wish you'd give me a gagement ring.
Here's Luton. She knows fully well. He scary, has been
very honest and yes I want to get married. Let
me ask a question. I just got your waffle maker here.
Do you get nervous if you buy something small and

(14:07):
it's in a small box that she might think that
I got nervous, Yes, I got nervous. Have you seen
the new apple? The Apple product the rock Shock. So
what it does is you get down on one knee
and you push a button on the camera on the phone,
and a drawbridge comes down in the back and as
it drops down, a ring pops up, so you can
film her seeing the ring at the same time. You

(14:29):
should get that. But I have like a chicken nugget
in or something. Yeah, it's called rock Shock. I wait.
We went to a Japanese habachi place with one of
our friends. He whips out a box and handed to
the girlfriend and the box was empty. It was a
practical joke. He was, you don't do that. That's when
you put his head right on. Died, but they're not

(14:51):
together anymore. Fifteen minute Morning show.
