Welcome to you had me at Black. I'm Martina Abraham Zalunga. We are still in our at the house series because we are still in a pandemic.

And y'all know if it's not essential you really shouldn't be out in these

streets each week we invite you to share stories on different topics and air them

here in this episode we're getting into your DMs.

COBID's forced us to do a lot of things differently and dating is one of them.

So we wanted to hear how y'all are doing, partly because we're concerned,

and partly because we're just a little messy.

Before we start, though, this episode is sponsored by identity you know that feeling after

you organize your closet no more chaos just identity is that for the internet.

Organize everywhere you log in in one place,

so no need to remember 50 million sites and passwords.

Our listeners can get started for free at identity.com slash y-h-h-m-a-b.

All righty, it's story time. Yeah, at the house.

At the house.

At the house. First up is Liz. So I've noticed this person that I met years ago at a poetry event and during this poetry event,

dude was reciting to me very vivaciously that even my mom was like girl

So I tend to have a thing for creatives and poets and is looking at my stories from time and time

commenting on my stuff and I'm like you know what let's let's see what happens

so I hit this person up and we're talking about poetry and

creating and talking like deep stuff. We're talking about trauma, we're talking

about the autonomy of self, we're talking about love I'm a sucker for all of these

things and he speaks Creole I also do and I'm like this is pretty cool and you know I'm trying to check the Instagram to make sure
