00:00:00.000 Do you think you're above average and what would you bring to an above average man?
00:00:04.220 I would say I'm currently average because I have a lot of improvement that needs to happen.
00:00:10.220 My man is above average.
00:00:13.220 And what I bring to the table, as a sense, is same thing you said, babe.
00:00:21.820 I am very nurturing.
00:00:23.540 The job that I have allows me to, you know, I feel like I'm going to be a very good mum.
00:00:30.000 I feel like I'm very caring.
00:00:34.100 Money-wise, I'm able to take care of certain things as well.
00:00:37.180 So the pressure isn't all on him.
00:00:39.280 I know a lot of people think, oh, you know, it should be because he's the man.
00:00:42.420 Absolutely, I agree with that.
00:00:43.900 But I want to help.
00:00:45.480 I don't want to feel useless in the household.
00:00:48.700 Even if I'm just providing groceries, do you know what I mean?
00:00:51.220 A little bit of something.
00:00:53.080 Very understanding.
00:00:54.360 I listen to a lot of things.
00:00:56.360 My ears are open.
00:00:57.140 And, yeah, I think that it's important.
00:01:01.860 I don't go clubbing a lot.
00:01:03.900 There's, you know, I haven't been with a lot of people before him.
00:01:07.520 There's a lot of things that would make me worthy, perhaps, of being with someone like that.
00:01:14.580 If you're attracted in an above average man, wouldn't you say you like you're above average?
00:01:19.260 Because you kind of are what you attract.
00:01:20.640 So he's older than me, and at the moment, I think as humans, we'd be silly to think that we don't have a lot of growth.
00:01:32.020 There's always room for improvement.
00:01:33.740 I'm not going to sit here and be like, oh, yeah, I'm above average.
00:01:35.860 No, babe.
00:01:36.580 I've got shit to work on.
00:01:38.900 Do you know what I mean?
00:01:39.240 I think it isn't a negative thing.
00:01:40.740 No, no, no, no.
00:01:41.780 And honestly, it shows humility that you're saying that, to be honest, which I think is something men look for.
00:01:48.500 Yeah, perhaps.
00:01:49.920 But, yeah, even for myself, I know that I've got a lot of growth that needs to happen.
00:01:54.280 So, yeah.
00:01:55.300 What are you looking to improve on?
00:01:59.340 Work-wise, I can make a lot more money.
00:02:02.380 I can improve in that area.
00:02:04.220 My body can be a lot better.
00:02:07.000 My hair can be a lot more.
00:02:08.100 Do you know men don't care about money?
00:02:10.560 Yeah, exactly.
00:02:12.640 Some do.
00:02:14.260 The bums.
00:02:15.460 Yeah.
00:02:16.120 Not men that make money.
00:02:17.660 But it's just nice if the person that you're with has got ambition, at least.
00:02:20.980 Do you know what I mean?
00:02:21.800 For women, no.
00:02:22.960 With the person that I'm with, he doesn't really care about money, but he cares.
00:02:27.160 Where are you going in life?
00:02:29.240 Otherwise, I can get with any woman.
00:02:30.800 What are you bringing?
00:02:31.740 What makes you different?
00:02:33.440 So, I've got ambition.
00:02:35.680 You know, what is that I do in life?
00:02:37.740 That's what intrigues him.
00:02:40.320 Okay, what else?
00:02:42.160 What do you mean?
00:02:42.880 Are you looking to improve on?
00:02:44.020 So, you said money, fitness.
00:02:45.760 Yeah.
00:02:46.460 It's okay if it's just that.
00:02:47.440 I was just curious if there's more.
00:02:48.760 Yeah, money, fitness, mental health as well.
00:02:51.740 I think that's very important.
00:02:53.680 I've still got a lot of growth to do in that area.
00:02:56.540 I think we all do our money 24, so I have a lot more work to do.
00:03:00.500 But, yeah, I think.
00:03:03.160 Oh, and also being more calm, listening to him, because I've also been very dominant in the past.
00:03:09.360 He's told me that, so I'm trying to be a bit more submissive.
00:03:12.700 Feminine.
00:03:12.840 Yeah, a bit more feminine.
00:03:14.420 That's it.
00:03:15.600 Where do you, like, why do you think you've been more dominant in the past?
00:03:19.040 Like, where does that come from?
00:03:20.200 Is that something you saw modeled growing up, or is that just a trait about you?
00:03:23.420 So, I didn't really have a dad growing up, so therefore, I've naturally had to be a bit more masculine.
00:03:30.400 I've had to fend for myself.
00:03:31.840 I also grew up in a bit of a hood area, you could say.
00:03:35.480 So, yeah, I came from a bit of a rough background in a sense, but I feel like I'm dragging myself out of it and bettering myself.
00:03:43.520 How do you, because I've always wondered, how, if you didn't grow up in that environment, how do you learn to be, like, a wife or more feminine?
00:03:50.840 Like, where do you go?
00:03:53.380 He has taught me a lot.
00:03:55.700 What I've seen, a lot of my family members and friends have also taught me.
00:04:00.020 And if you're not willing to learn and change, you're never going to.
00:04:02.700 You have to be able to do that yourself.
00:04:04.860 It doesn't matter what background you've come from, you have to be willing to learn and to change, and then you're going to.
00:04:10.960 It's that simple.
00:04:13.020 And what about you?
00:04:13.920 I think that if I don't say I'm above average, then who else is going to say it?
00:04:21.160 Do you know what I mean?
00:04:22.200 If I don't back myself first, then I don't think I'll ever become above average.
00:04:26.060 I think, you know, your mind is the most powerful thing, and you kind of are what you think, kind of the same as you are what you eat type vibe.
00:04:35.180 So if I don't think I'm above average and not what I bring to the table, then I am the fucking table.
00:04:42.260 I'm the table.
00:04:43.100 Do you know what I mean?
00:04:43.780 And I might not be your table, but he might like the oak table with a wonky leg and, you know, and a crochet doily on top, right?
00:04:52.640 And he over there might want a marble table, but I will be somebody's table.
00:04:57.900 So what are you, what's on the table?
00:05:00.840 What's on the table?
00:05:02.360 What's on the table?
00:05:03.380 Okay, what's on the table?
00:05:05.200 Well, I think I can have a laugh.
00:05:07.980 I'm funny.
00:05:10.140 Again, I'm very nurturing.
00:05:11.720 I'm a big heart.
00:05:12.620 But I've been through a lot, so I tend to have, you know, a lot in common with, you know, I usually find more so, like, men that I've been around or now my now partner has been through a lot.
00:05:30.200 And I think as a female, I've gone through quite a lot that, you know, not always some females have been through just because, you know, I've been around a lot of boys and where I was gay, I was always hanging out with boys.
00:05:42.160 So now when I sit with my man now is that we've got quite a lot in common, which is great.
00:05:49.220 I can cook, sort of.
00:05:51.100 Like, he's probably laughing at me right now, but I can cook.
00:05:54.420 How often do you cook for him?
00:05:55.760 How often do I cook for him?
00:05:57.080 It depends because we don't live together.
00:05:58.480 Like this week, how many times have you cooked?
00:05:59.920 I've cooked, like, twice, three times.
00:06:02.520 I love cooking breakfast.
00:06:03.460 He always gets breakfast, he always gets breakfast of me.
00:06:06.160 But, you know, it's a learning curve.
00:06:08.100 I just, you know, and, you know, if you don't like that I'm not cooking for him, I'm sorry.
00:06:13.640 I didn't, I didn't, I didn't say anything.
00:06:18.260 That's kind of like the vibe that I like.
00:06:20.400 I'm not coming with what I'm bringing to the table.
00:06:22.760 It's that I am the table in whatever shape or form.
00:06:25.280 And, you know, and the table might get a lick of paint and it might get new legs or something like that.
00:06:32.060 But I am the table.
00:06:33.000 It's not what's on the table.
00:06:34.180 I am what's holding everything up.
00:06:36.480 Can I ask you a question?
00:06:37.340 You mentioned how, like, you know, the mind is powerful and what you think of yourself.
00:06:42.840 But do you also feel like there's a point where you can also be realistic about where you are presently?
00:06:47.360 Yeah, no, for sure.
00:06:48.280 I think I've learned to be very determined because I've lost five stone, which was a massive thing.
00:06:55.660 So for a long time, I didn't think I brought anything to the table, let alone being the table, let alone thinking I was above average.
00:07:02.420 I spent a lot of my youth thinking I was well below average, especially being a big...
00:07:08.620 Were you when you were overweight?
00:07:10.320 When I was overweight, struggling with being gay.
00:07:12.660 Well, you are below average if you're overweight.
00:07:15.500 Yeah, so, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:07:17.300 Yeah, no, no, it's true.
00:07:18.420 It's true, yeah, yeah.
00:07:19.500 I mean, I'm sure you can see the level of attention you get now from when you're overweight.
00:07:23.120 A million percent, a million percent.
00:07:25.660 I was a fat kid too, so...
00:07:27.280 Yeah.
00:07:28.340 No, no, no, so I like it.
00:07:29.460 So I really have, like, when I show people pictures of what I used to look like, they go, wow, that can't be you.
00:07:34.320 I can't imagine.
00:07:35.140 So I've had to back myself.
00:07:39.400 I've had to say that I am the table.
00:07:42.000 I bring everything to the table.
00:07:43.420 And I think that's what makes me essentially do it because I'm saying, I kind of embody that.
00:07:49.320 But it's just like, because I almost think of this as like a job, right?
00:07:53.540 Because I personally, I think like being a wife is like applying for a job.
00:07:56.760 If you want to be married, I know not everyone does.
00:07:59.500 But it's like when you come to a job interview and you just say, well, I am the job.
00:08:04.720 I'm sick, girls.
00:08:05.900 Might try that next time.
00:08:07.820 And it's like, no, no, what do you do?
00:08:10.440 Like, what if you're in this job, like, what can you do for me?
00:08:13.460 I'm kind.
00:08:14.280 I'm kind.
00:08:14.960 I'm kind.
00:08:15.340 That for me is what I bring to the table.
00:08:18.680 I'm a kind person.
00:08:19.640 And if you don't like that, then there's the door.
00:08:21.800 But that is essentially the bare minimum that I bring to the table is that I think I'm a kind soul.
00:08:27.600 And I love fully with my whole heart.
00:08:29.620 And I think that's the biggest thing that me personally, I can bring to the table.
00:08:33.740 That's interesting.
00:08:34.600 Nobody said like, I want to have kids.
00:08:36.560 Oh, I want to have kids.
00:08:37.300 Do you know what?
00:08:37.980 There was so much more that I wanted to get to.
00:08:40.180 I can cook for a family of this many, like, you know, I don't want to have kids.
00:08:45.640 I don't want to have kids.
00:08:47.240 Okay.
00:08:47.800 Or would you, if you found a guy tomorrow that you really liked, would you have kids?
00:08:51.940 Like, you're ready to go?
00:08:53.200 Me?
00:08:53.600 Yeah.
00:08:54.440 But I got a boyfriend.
00:08:55.500 Okay.
00:08:55.900 So would you, if he said tomorrow, I'm ready to get married.
00:08:58.840 And have kids.
00:08:59.460 Yeah.
00:08:59.640 Like right now.
00:09:00.500 So let's start.
00:09:01.700 I mean, I would try and negotiate and try and get him to extend this.
00:09:04.920 But I mean, if he's like dead on it.
00:09:08.080 Yeah.
00:09:08.920 Yes.
00:09:09.320 Yeah.
00:09:10.240 So no.
00:09:11.520 So no.
00:09:12.200 I mean, I wouldn't be happy.
00:09:13.320 I wouldn't be happy about it.
00:09:15.280 So just say no.
00:09:16.680 Because no guy's going to want to like force you to have his child.
00:09:19.280 Do you know what?
00:09:19.980 Yeah.
00:09:20.200 But it's like what you said.
00:09:21.480 I feel like because every other box is ticked.
00:09:24.000 I feel secure.
00:09:25.280 I feel like you'll be a good dad.
00:09:28.120 You're in a good position.
00:09:29.560 We can financially handle it.
00:09:31.420 Like, it's fine.
00:09:32.940 I just feel like the only part is the selfish aspect of me not wanting to have kids.
00:09:36.860 It's because I feel like I just want to live my life.
00:09:38.500 That's the only element.
00:09:40.160 25.
00:09:40.960 What age would you want to have children?
00:09:43.220 I'm going to rethink it around 28.
00:09:46.000 28.
00:09:46.540 Do you feel like you're not ready to have children yet?
00:09:49.360 I don't feel ready.
00:09:50.640 No.
00:09:50.800 But like you said, I probably am if it happened.
00:09:54.320 Are you more of like, sorry, are you more of like a career person?
00:09:56.860 That's your focus?
00:09:58.020 I am quite career driven, yes.
00:10:00.360 What do you think like will make you happier in the future?
00:10:02.520 Your career or like having children?
00:10:05.440 I think having kids and a family and a husband.
00:10:08.020 Oh, yeah.
00:10:08.640 100% over the career.
00:10:10.460 100%.
00:10:10.820 And I want to be a housewife for a period of my life as well.
00:10:13.580 So I'm curious, like why not go for that first then?
00:10:18.640 Because women in my industry, the time is ticking.
00:10:21.980 What's your industry?
00:10:23.200 Media and presenting.
00:10:25.280 So I can't.
00:10:26.220 I don't know.
00:10:26.860 I got a lady that was 55, like 50,000 subs in three months.
00:10:30.920 Oh, yeah.
00:10:31.560 Auntie.
00:10:32.100 Yeah.
00:10:32.460 Yeah.
00:10:33.220 No, it's true.
00:10:34.240 And maybe it's society pushing its own standards on me maybe.
00:10:38.360 And it's scaring me.
00:10:39.480 Yeah.
00:10:39.720 I'll admit to it.
00:10:40.360 It scares me.
00:10:40.900 Being young and beautiful, there is an advantage.
00:10:43.420 I'm not going to deny that.
00:10:44.920 It's not like you can't have a media career when you're older.
00:10:47.180 It's true.
00:10:47.760 It's true.
00:10:48.340 But I feel like I still got a bit of time to play with currently for the kids thing.
00:10:53.040 We're running out of time with the kids.
00:10:54.680 We are.
00:10:55.320 How many kids do you want?
00:10:57.520 About maybe just one.
00:10:59.720 Oh, you just want one kid?
00:11:01.380 Maybe.
00:11:02.220 One or two.
00:11:02.880 One or two.
00:11:03.280 Two, two, two, two, two.
00:11:05.180 Two.
00:11:05.840 Okay.
00:11:06.600 Yeah, I guess.
00:11:07.340 Not too many.
00:11:08.120 Not too many.
00:11:08.980 Yeah, just don't play with fire.
00:11:11.160 It's true.
00:11:12.200 Do fertility tests work and stuff?
00:11:14.580 Like, do they really show you how?
00:11:16.060 Yeah, I think so.
00:11:17.160 Well, isn't that something we can actively practice then?
00:11:20.020 What, fertility tests?
00:11:20.920 Yeah, to see how fertile we are.
00:11:22.880 Yeah.
00:11:23.400 To just know.
00:11:24.320 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:11:24.920 I know girls.
00:11:25.300 Because I want to do one.
00:11:26.220 I know girls that got to like 28 and then they couldn't have kids.
00:11:30.800 So this is why I'm going to do it like I said.
00:11:32.040 You have to go to the doctors.
00:11:32.420 Especially, like, have you been on birth control at all?
00:11:34.880 No.
00:11:35.360 Okay, no.
00:11:35.860 That's good.
00:11:36.560 Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I came off birth control.
00:11:39.020 Because of the fertility situation.
00:11:40.080 I just said, have you ever been on birth control?
00:11:43.380 And you said no.
00:11:44.180 And then you said that's fine.
00:11:44.920 No, no, no.
00:11:45.460 As in, I haven't been on it for a very long time.
00:11:47.680 So that's one of the reasons.
00:11:49.140 Like, as in ages.
00:11:51.560 So.
00:11:52.100 Yeah.
00:11:52.400 Okay.
00:11:53.840 Do you feel like you're above average?
00:11:56.340 And what do you bring to an above average woman?
00:11:58.340 Oh, see, I think it's super arrogant to say about, you know, for like the average male in 2023, it's not hard to be above average.
00:12:07.580 Like, if you break it to categories like physically, spiritually, career-wise, friendship, relationship with family.
00:12:12.940 I feel like physically, I train every day.
00:12:16.060 So in that sense, I feel like I'm above average.
00:12:19.820 You said the statistic earlier about being over six foot.
00:12:21.940 Luckily, I'm 6'1".
00:12:22.780 So that's another thing above average.
00:12:24.240 Okay.
00:12:24.520 In terms of career, like, I've had a mad career.
00:12:27.120 I've achieved a lot.
00:12:27.980 I've got a degree for my mom in case anything else failed.
00:12:32.080 I've achieved all my goals I set out in the modeling world.
00:12:34.940 Oh, you're a model?
00:12:35.760 Yeah, model and actor.
00:12:36.700 So I've achieved, it took me like six years to achieve all of them goals.
00:12:39.540 What did you do?
00:12:40.820 For the, for the, all the goals in the modeling.
00:12:42.620 So like, for example, like when I was 24, I used to stand in like Birmingham City Center and look at a billboard.
00:12:47.160 And before I ever did a photo shoot my whole life and say, one day I'm going to be on there.
00:12:50.060 Then it'd be like international bookings.
00:12:51.480 Then it'll be stores in London.
00:12:52.780 Then it'll be certain brands I'd want to shoot for, this and that.
00:12:55.840 And then, yeah, I did them all.
00:12:57.240 And they were all very like clearly written out next to my bed.
00:13:00.420 I ticked them all off as I go along.
00:13:02.120 And then showed so much gratitude along the way as well.
00:13:05.140 So it's just like, because you know, when you come from nothing, like when you have something, it's like the best feeling ever.
00:13:09.460 So yeah, in that sense, I feel like I do in terms of like spiritually, I've been on my spiritual journey, found peace within myself.
00:13:15.380 I've revisited old stuff.
00:13:17.160 My communications, A1 in relationships, things like this.
00:13:20.200 So I think I bring a lot.
00:13:21.660 And the question you asked earlier about when I'm like, when I speak to a female, I ask them questions.
00:13:25.940 And I say like, what do you bring to the table?
00:13:27.740 Because I'm bringing X, Y, Z.
00:13:30.500 But yeah, now I'm like, I've kind of like bulletproof my philosophies in regards to what I want in a relationship.
00:13:37.260 So I very much know if this person's going to be the one for me.
00:13:41.000 I feel like that's the stage I'm right now.
00:13:42.360 You know, it's funny, like everything you said was like results oriented.
00:13:45.400 So you said you're above average in looks, but if you model your top 20 percent, it looks roughly because you wouldn't get a modeling contract if you weren't.
00:13:53.080 Yeah.
00:13:53.460 I think that's like, is it subjective?
00:13:55.640 And it's what society dictates as well.
00:13:57.220 What's like popping at the time?
00:13:58.180 It's really not subjective.
00:13:58.800 No, no.
00:14:00.280 Like if you look at dating app data, people tend to find the same types of people attractive.
00:14:04.560 But there's some people that would like hate tattoos or some people that would hate.
00:14:07.060 I mean, there's like a little bit of subjectivity to it, but not really like.
00:14:12.040 Not a lot.
00:14:12.880 No.
00:14:13.540 Okay.
00:14:14.080 Yeah.
00:14:14.880 But yeah, in that sense.
00:14:15.500 And then when you say like, I had this in my career, like you listed the accomplishment.
00:14:19.080 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:14:19.820 No, it's just interesting because when men answer, they usually answer more like results where it's like girls, it's more like feelings.
00:14:25.160 Yeah.
00:14:25.620 Yeah.
00:14:26.380 I feel that.
