00:00:35.300 Should you date your best friend's ex?

00:00:37.040 I walk in this morning. 0.93

00:00:38.780 Anthony lands this on me, and he says, you know, the VT Gen Z,

00:00:42.260 which they're doing such a great job with VT Gen Z on Instagram and TikTok.

00:00:46.840 He says, do you think a man should date his best friend's ex?

00:00:53.420 By the time I gave the answer, you have to see his reaction at the end.

00:00:56.460 He seemed very disappointed that I had to clarify and say,

00:00:58.860 by the way, are you dating your best friend's ex?

00:01:01.420 He said, no, no, no.

00:01:02.060 I said, then why do you look like you're hurt by this answer?

00:01:04.580 So, Vinny, do you think you should date your best friend's ex?

00:01:07.180 No, and I would never do it.

00:01:08.380 I don't want anything to do with, like, love, them, conversation, history.

00:01:14.440 Like, if I'm your best friend, Pat, I'm ride or die,

00:01:17.140 and I don't care if she throws herself at me.

00:01:19.380 I'm staying away from that because nothing good is going to come out from that.

00:01:22.840 Nothing.

00:01:23.240 I mean, yeah, you know her.

00:01:24.540 If he's your best friend and you've been around her, you know her,

00:01:27.020 but that's your home, that's your brother.

00:01:29.560 I personally, no, no.

00:01:31.400 That's a no-no for me.

00:01:32.600 What if I didn't know it was my best friend's ex

00:01:34.660 and I really wasn't bringing up the fact that I was dating.

00:01:37.540 How many of his best friend's ex do you think he's hooked up with?

00:01:40.540 Oh, Bill?

00:01:40.960 Yeah.

00:01:41.400 Slick Willie?

00:01:42.180 Wait a minute.

00:01:42.720 You mean unintentionally?

00:01:44.140 But Tom, honestly, though, like give a story.

00:01:46.760 Like was there a moment?

00:01:48.020 Was there a big falling out with friends?

00:01:49.860 Like is there anything?

00:01:50.740 Where do you stand with this?

00:01:51.860 I remember being in high school

00:01:53.040 and we had a group of friends cross country.

00:01:55.620 I wasn't on the team.

00:01:56.880 I was kind of an alternate, and I ran with them.

00:01:59.580 And what was very interesting is there was a guy on the team, and I knew his girlfriend.

00:02:07.040 I knew them all very, very well.

00:02:09.160 And they broke up, and I kept talking to her, and I was just always friends with her.

00:02:14.220 But in my mind, even back then, I always, the rule was I wasn't going to go out with her.

00:02:21.320 I didn't know if she'd say yes.

00:02:23.160 But at that time, Pat, I was like, no, I'm not going to do that.

00:02:27.720 We were all friends.

00:02:29.280 And there was something back in my head even back then that says, man, this would just create a lot of issues.

00:02:34.320 This would create a lot of drama.

00:02:35.620 So it never really went further in my brain than that.

00:02:38.820 Then, nah, it's not a good idea.

00:02:41.060 Adam.

00:02:43.700 There's an equation to this that I basically come up with.

00:02:46.540 So feel free to use it out there if you're out there in the dating game.

00:02:50.820 Should you date your best friend's ex?

00:02:52.920 If this is your best friend, the first level is this is a hard no.

00:02:58.460 No exceptions whatsoever.

00:03:00.140 Your best friend, hard no.

00:03:02.440 If it's a friend, second category, it is a soft no with exceptions.

00:03:08.140 Hey, look, man, I know that you dated.

00:03:10.600 It's been a few years.

00:03:12.120 There's a conversation as exceptions that could be made.

00:03:14.980 If it's an acquaintance, it's a third level.

00:03:17.520 The answer is yes, respectfully.

00:03:21.040 So the last thing you want to do is go into a relationship with drama,

00:03:26.340 with people talking trash, with people saying, can you believe this?

00:03:29.740 Can you believe this? 0.64

00:03:30.480 Because that's a very bad way to start.

00:03:32.480 But at the end of the day, your best friend, like your dog,

00:03:36.240 literally and metaphorically, that guy's going to be there for you forever.

00:03:39.380 Let me ask you a question.

00:03:40.220 I've never dated anything close to my best friend.

00:03:42.360 Do you think your best friend will eventually find out?

00:03:45.820 Yes, for sure.

00:03:47.040 They find out at home.

00:03:47.700 No, no.

00:03:48.020 Let's just say you hook up on a weekend.

00:03:49.340 You think your friend will ever find out?

00:03:51.140 I've seen this happen.

00:03:52.300 They always find out.

00:03:53.900 It's always awkward.

00:03:55.520 It's never good.

00:03:56.700 And you know how they say bros before?

00:03:58.760 Yes. 0.99

00:04:00.400 Ladies, your best friend is your best friend for a reason. 0.99

00:04:04.060 And hear this out.

00:04:04.560 Let's say we're best friends.

00:04:05.880 You break up.

00:04:06.640 And then now I'm with her.

00:04:07.840 You know what that means to me?

00:04:09.000 That even when we were together, you were like, yeah.

00:04:11.720 Like, you were thinking in your head.

00:04:12.980 Like, who knows how many opportunities you tried or maybe did something.

00:04:17.220 No, I don't like that at all.

00:04:18.960 i'm anti that i i think it's one of the 20 rules for young men never ever date your best friend's

00:04:26.840 ex you think they'll never find out 100 they will find out even if it was one time you know why

00:04:34.740 because how often do relationships work out well one percent of the time that's why they call it

00:04:41.080 the one yeah so by the way how many times you think there's going to be fights uh time based

00:04:48.380 on credible data all the time.

00:04:50.200 All the time. So if there's a fallen

00:04:52.100 out, who do you think he or she is

00:04:54.220 going to protect and defend? She tells

00:04:56.100 five of her friends, and that's how your friend found out.

00:04:58.660 And he, 0.99

00:05:00.060 if he's dumb enough to date his 0.99

00:05:02.300 best friend or one of his friend's ex, 1.00

00:05:04.480 he's dumb enough to brag about it to others 0.99

00:05:06.380 when he's at one or two drinks. 0.99

00:05:08.320 And when he brags about it, what ends up happening?

00:05:10.840 It comes back. And then what

00:05:12.260 happens? You're done.

00:05:14.680 There's about 8 billion

00:05:16.360 people in the world.

00:05:17.120 okay let's take eliminate you know half of them so too old too young yeah let's take them there's 0.97

00:05:22.620 a lot of ugly people out there undateable but for everybody there's somebody but the basic

00:05:28.100 by the way you're gonna see i'm gonna get someone next and it's gonna say you don't understand you

00:05:32.140 guys have no idea i married my best friend's ex and we've been together for 22 years those are

00:05:37.300 the exceptions not the rules you're gonna get those rules and we fell in love and they a matter

00:05:41.040 of fact we even go on double dates with this i hear these stories right i hear you don't even

00:05:45.760 No, da, da, da, da.

00:05:46.380 Okay, great.

00:05:46.860 Well, the Rock's, you know, ex-wife married his trainer, and they're good.

00:05:52.440 And what about – and this other person – and that other person, this other – it is what it is.

00:05:56.060 You know what's around the corner?

00:05:57.660 What is around the corner?

00:05:59.060 What are we today?

00:05:59.840 Today's the 22nd.

00:06:01.880 Fourth of July is how many days away?

00:06:04.960 Roughly 15, 16 days away from Fourth of July.

00:06:07.960 Okay?

00:06:08.820 So here's what we did.

00:06:10.020 The guys put a video together.

00:06:11.540 I hope the guys are on the back already.

00:06:12.900 we have flirted with this video and shown it to you for six months but we've never released that

00:06:19.740 we kept the best one for last and i'm going to tell you why this will go and be on ebay in no time

00:06:25.940 because we have a 250 year anniversary box that's here with some special items in it and

00:06:33.300 specifically the hat it's the hat that employees came to us and said please don't sell it all

00:06:39.140 Let us have some of it, but I first want you to watch this video, especially the people that love America.

00:06:44.640 Go ahead, guys.

00:06:45.820 Before there was a nation, God bless America.

00:06:48.780 There was an idea, an idea powerful enough to ignite a revolution.

00:06:55.000 America has marched through history with courage in its heart and freedom as its cause.

00:07:02.180 We crossed frontiers.

00:07:04.360 We built railroads that united a continent.

00:07:06.940 We rose from the ashes of conflict.

00:07:11.060 We defended liberty across oceans.

00:07:14.580 And we reached beyond Earth itself, planting our flag among the stars.

00:07:21.380 Through every trial, one spirit endured.

00:07:25.560 A spirit to dream bigger, to stand stronger, to keep moving forward.

00:07:32.040 For 250 years, generations of Americans have written a story of sacrifice, innovation,

00:07:41.040 resilience and hope.

00:07:43.040 And now, the next chapter begins.

00:07:47.040 This is America.

00:07:50.040 250 years of freedom.

00:07:54.040 250 years of courage.

00:07:58.040 250 years of a nation still rising.

00:08:03.020 I'll join the military right now.

00:08:04.320 It ain't great.

00:08:05.020 Don't you just.

00:08:06.000 Aren't you proud you served the military?

00:08:07.880 One of the best decisions I made.

00:08:09.940 Absolutely.

00:08:10.620 So go to VT Merch dot com.

00:08:12.500 Only limited 250 boxes.

00:08:16.540 When you go there, it comes with a shirt that says the greatest country in the world.

00:08:21.080 On the box, it says 250 years of freedom.

00:08:24.080 Future looks bright.

00:08:25.160 When you open it up, you get a future looks bright mug.

00:08:28.040 You get these hats, that there's only a limited supply of them,

00:08:32.280 and then you get this water mug.

00:08:34.180 What do you call these things?

00:08:36.220 What's it called?

00:08:38.040 250-year anniversary on it as well.

00:08:39.920 It says, and God we trust.

00:08:41.140 And on the back it says, the greatest country in the world,

00:08:43.780 but it's only for 250 of them.

00:08:45.440 So if you want to buy the hat by itself, you have the option to do that.

00:08:50.320 But it's limited supply.

00:08:51.540 These will go in no time.

00:08:53.040 And the only place you'll be able to find them is on eBay.

00:08:55.160 So if you see this video afterwards, and it's already sold out,

00:08:58.060 Go on eBay.

00:08:58.660 Some guys will put it up.

00:08:59.940 But if you want to get the kit, go to vtmerch.com, place the order,

00:09:04.040 get the entire box, the shirt.

00:09:06.460 Can you go through order of the box so we can see exactly how it works?

00:09:09.660 Can you go all the way to the top so they can see when they order the box

00:09:12.600 how it works?

00:09:13.260 If you want to go back to, I think go back to the home page

00:09:16.720 and go to the collections.

00:09:19.240 No, go back to the home page, and it should be right there.

00:09:22.840 Click on that secure yours when you go on the site,

00:09:27.020 So right there, if you go through it, so pick the shirt.

00:09:28.980 So you pick the size, whatever size it is, right there to the top right.

00:09:32.300 Just pick the shirt size.

00:09:33.720 Gotcha.

00:09:34.020 Okay, so go medium, plus one.

00:09:36.200 And then everything else is included.

00:09:37.920 Go in the bottom, place your order.
