Transcript

00:00:00.000 Topic number three on today's agenda, we have a video of a man calling his friend to tell him that his girl is no longer his girlfriend.
00:00:07.320 I actually haven't seen this clip, so yeah, let's check it out.
00:00:12.080 Tiffany's no longer my girlfriend.
00:00:14.440 Thank God, dude. That woman was the craziest person I've ever met.
00:00:19.140 Oh, hold up, hold up, hold up. She's actually, we're engaged now. She's my fiancé.
00:00:23.400 She's no longer my girlfriend. She's my fiancé.
00:00:25.580 What the hell, Mike?
00:00:26.500 I am so sorry that she's your fiancé. Bye.
00:00:30.800 Oh my God!
00:00:33.720 That's so awkward.
00:00:35.440 I have seen that clip. I actually have seen that clip before.
00:00:38.740 That is really awkward.
00:00:42.060 I don't even know what to say.
00:00:44.040 I think surely he should have spoke to the people around him before making a life-changing decision like proposing to someone.
00:00:51.400 I think it's kind of worrying that he's called his friend and his friend isn't already aware of the situation.
00:00:58.580 And I think if his friend was aware of the situation, at least it seems like to me, if this man had any sense about him, if he had his head screwed on properly,
00:01:06.580 he probably wouldn't be calling to say that she's my fiancé because he would have already had the conversation of,
00:01:10.780 I'm thinking of getting engaged to her and his friend would have communicated, look, I don't think she's good for you.
00:01:16.320 I think she's headache.
00:01:17.280 Yeah.
00:01:17.540 In which case, if he was in a good mindset, he would trust the people around him and perhaps not have proposed.
00:01:24.400 I mean, the fact she said she's the craziest girl he's ever met in his life, it kind of makes you think, why?
00:01:31.240 Like, what's she done?
00:01:33.040 But it could be also a fake video.
00:01:36.920 It could be.
00:01:37.840 It could be.
00:01:38.600 Because if my friends had expressed that they feel that way about my partner and then I went against their judgment and, you know, did something they told me not to,
00:01:49.680 I probably wouldn't record myself with my partner next to me telling my friend that I know doesn't approve of my partner.
00:01:56.580 Yeah, I think if it is real, at least, I mean, it's the internet, we can never really know for sure these days.
00:02:01.500 Yeah.
00:02:01.740 But if it is real, I think, unfortunately, a lot of people, especially in our generation,
00:02:07.160 they don't speak to their friends and family and people around them who they should trust about life decisions.
00:02:12.980 True.
00:02:13.380 They just kind of take things into their own hands.
00:02:15.140 I think we live in a very individualistic culture at the moment.
00:02:18.040 I think everything has become very selfish and everyone has this idea that they know best.
00:02:22.620 And, you know, we had that trend of calling older people boomers.
00:02:26.500 And, you know, when an older person said something, it was OK, boomer, you know, which is, you know, funny.
00:02:31.620 We can all laugh about it.
00:02:32.520 This was during the time of Vine.
00:02:33.780 I happened to love Vine and thought it was hilarious.
00:02:36.080 But the point is, is that actually you're never going to get anywhere in life unless you accept and understand that there are always going to be people who have been around longer than you.
00:02:44.240 So therefore, they probably know something you don't.
00:02:47.580 And it's why it's really important who you surround yourself with, because it's better to have two people in your corner who you trust their opinion no matter what.
00:02:56.520 And you know that they've got your best interests at heart than 20 people around you who actually don't care about what you do with your life.
00:03:03.220 And I can guarantee you if he did tell anyone that he was going to propose to this woman, they were probably very bad friends because they probably didn't give the right kind of advice and just said, oh, amazing.
00:03:14.280 I'm so happy for you.
00:03:15.100 You're going to get married.
00:03:16.380 You know, a lot of people don't give their true feelings because, again, we live in a very soft culture where people are scared of offending people.
00:03:25.240 Exactly.
00:03:26.100 One of the comments says she thought her past was behind her.
00:03:30.400 Yeah, I mean, we don't know the situation there.
00:03:33.220 Makes you wonder, is Mike's friend settling or is Mike just hating?
00:03:39.580 I got to know something.
00:03:41.200 Better call bro by the side.
00:03:42.660 Putting calls on loudspeaker is definitely not my thing.
00:03:45.500 Anything could pop out.
00:03:46.660 True, but also if you have to live your life like that, that just indicates to me you're surrounding yourself with the wrong people.
00:03:51.860 If you have to hide everything from everyone you know, you know, you probably, you should probably take a look at that.
00:03:58.080 Yeah, if I were him, I wouldn't have done that, like I said.
00:04:00.700 As me, I wouldn't be afraid to do that because I don't, I know that I don't have anything to hide.
00:04:05.320 I know that, you know, people I surround myself truly have my best interests at heart.
00:04:09.800 Can't relate to him.
00:04:11.500 No, can't relate.
00:04:12.660 But I think, unfortunately, there's probably a lot of people who can and that's a real shame that that's where we're at in our culture.
00:04:20.140 And something needs to change, guys.
00:04:21.740 Start surrounding yourself with better people.
00:04:23.600 And speak to your friends and family about what they think about your partner.
00:04:27.900 Because, yes, they're going to be biased because they care about you.
00:04:30.840 You know, a little bit of bias is kind of good in that scenario because they're probably going to tell you the truth.
00:04:35.460 And if they're all saying bad things, well, you should probably look at your circumstances and maybe make a change.
00:04:41.020 Or don't.
00:04:41.760 You have the freedom to live your life as you wish.
00:04:43.600 What do I know?
00:04:44.700 But I'm just, I'm just trying to help.
00:04:46.260 I'm just trying to help.
