| 0:06.4 | Hey guys, welcome back to me, Mennedakmi. I'm so excited for the episode today. It's with two of |
| 0:12.4 | my friends and our first twins on the show. So you're really going to enjoy it. But first, |
| 0:19.6 | I wanted to do a very brief solo. Someone asked about what to do when you go out with someone |
| 0:27.0 | who's like much older than you. And if you should still offer to pay, I totally understand why |
| 0:32.3 | you wouldn't offer to pay. But I have to stick to my guns on this one offer to pay no matter what |
| 0:40.4 | every single time it doesn't matter how old they are. The person who should pay is the person |
| 0:45.5 | who invited you on the date. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't offer. I think it's really important |
| 0:50.5 | to offer and always be someone who who does that. Because it's the right thing to do. It's just |
| 0:56.7 | polite. It's crazy. Some people are just so polite. And it goes such a long way. I actually had |

| 1:30.5 | nice. Someone asked about tips on taking it slow and steady. And then how to know if it's fizzling |
| 1:36.6 | out versus being slow and steady. I think that tips on taking it slow and steady are just like not |
| 1:42.7 | seeing each other every night after you first meet. I think you can still talk every day. But |
| 1:50.8 | you should have plans no more than two or three times a week. I think that seeing each other too much |
| 1:58.1 | in the beginning can make you think that you have feelings that you might not have. Whereas when |
| 2:05.4 | you take some time apart, you can actually sit with yourself and your feelings. You're not |
| 2:11.5 | your sober. You're not confused by the alcohol under dates every night. You have that time. And you |
| 2:18.7 | get to see like, oh, am I really thinking about this person? Is this someone that I'm genuinely |
