| 0:02.0 | So I was chatting with a girlfriend of mine the other day, and you know, you kind of get bored of chatting. I mean, you just have nothing to talk about, but we thought this was a good idea. What? Girls run out of things to talk about? Sometimes. Then we come up with new things. You come up with different things to talk about. I heard it. I saw this on the Atlanta two-day walk for breast cancer. They ran out of stuff to talk about? |
| 0:21.2 | Well, when they ran out of stuff to talk about, they talked about running out of stuff to talk about. Right. Okay. They're like, can you believe we ran out of stuff to talk about? That's weird because I never run out of stuff to talk about. When's the last time you ran out of stuff to talk about? And they talked about that for 10 minutes. and then came up with more topics. |
| 0:35.6 | And during that conversation, |
| 0:37.5 | thought of something else. |
| 0:38.6 | Right. |
| 0:39.1 | We thought of a brilliant idea |
| 0:40.4 | and didn't know if anybody else has done it. And it could be a trend. But we want winter boyfriends. And this is the idea behind having winter boyfriends. Winner or winter? Winter. Okay. Winter boyfriends. Like seasoned boyfriends. that you only have from the period of November through, let's say, March. Because that's when it's really cold outside, you don't really want to go out too much because then you got to bundle up. You don't want to wear the short dresses or the jackets. But a winter boyfriend is a boyfriend that you have and you just stay in. to watch movies with, someone to cuddle with, someone to go walk and hold hands in the mall with, nothing that lasts but in these couple of months. So you would let him know immediately in the beginning of the season, like I just want to let you know that this is over February 26th or whatever. February 29th, it should be over because then you got to get back in the gym, then you don't have time for him. |
| 1:28.1 | You got to get back in the gym to look good for summer. Okay, so it's a contract you make and you let him know. Can this translate to like the same way that we trade out wardrobes? Can you have a boyfriend for the fall season? Spring, summer, and winter. You got four boyfriends a year. Well, Summer years should be single, so that's the no-boyfriend zone. |
| 1:45.5 | So spring is like, you know, everybody's got spring fever. So you don't want to like limit your options in the spring. And then fall, you have your Halloween costumes and you want to go be single for that because you don't want a boyfriend tag along with you because you want to wear the short outfit. And boyfriends don't let you do that. Right. Yeah. Football season is also in the fall. |
| 2:01.7 | Winter really is the best time to have a boyfriend. |
| 2:03.3 | Yeah, duh. It's the perfect time to have a boyfriend. Actually, it is making kind of sense to me here. Yeah. Because then you have a boyfriend for the holiday parties and Christmas parties and all that stuff. You always have a date. You could potentially have a gift. you have a New Year's kiss and a Valentine's Day present. |
| 2:17.1 | So it's all wrapped up in this nice little bow. |
| 2:19.7 | And we thought it was an amazing idea, and now we want one. I like that. I think it actually has some legs. Wendy, do you really want a winter boyfriend, or will you just settle for any guy who will call you back more than twice? No, just a winter boyfriend. I like that idea. You want someone to snuggle with. It's cold outside. You want to light a fire. You want to just stay in and watch a movie. It's gross going outside. |
| 2:38.1 | And it's, just a winter boyfriend. I like that idea. You want someone to snuggle with. It's cold outside. |
| 2:34.1 | You want to light a fire. |
| 2:35.1 | You want to just stay in and watch a movie. |
| 2:36.8 | It's gross going outside. And it's going to get nasty out eventually in Atlanta. It's so true. Because think about it in the summertime, like, it's no fun to snuggle with anybody because you're like, get your hot, sweaty body away from me. Like, ah, like, ew, you're taking up too much room. |
| 2:50.6 | But then in the wintertime, like, you do want to have somebody to like snuggle with and spoon and, you know, somebody to warm up your feet. So you'd immediately make the agreement with them. It's like, I just want to let you know, this is over in November, but we're both going to be with each other. February. Starts in November, yeah. Starts in November, ends in February. But I don't know if it works or if it could work. I don't know. If I'm a guy and I had a woman approach me and I knew that was four months of having a girlfriend then she was gone in February, I'd sign up immediately. You would have a challenge though, like at Christmas, like how much do you spend on a temporary relationship? That's true. I mean, even just a small little thoughtful gift would be okay. |
| 3:26.0 | A card. |
| 3:26.6 | Because the entire relationship, the bar is set a little bit lower. You know, it's temporary. Yeah. And you're just here because it's winter and I'm just here because it's winter. So you don't really have to impress. Yeah. Right. I mean, you're in your sweatpants. He can be in his sweatpants. |
| 3:39.3 | You don't need to get all done up. |
