00:00:01.800 --> 00:00:06.400
What up, guys, is your
girl Lady Stinger and we're back with another

2
00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:11.400
episode of Gem's and Tonic. Today
we are talking about the five categories that

3
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:16.960
men put women into, and your
boy Rob doubts me that I'm not gonna

4
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:21.239
get the categories correct. He may
be right. But there's the desperate girl,

5
00:00:21.679 --> 00:00:26.440
right, there's the good time girl, okay, there's the good enough

6
00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:30.839
girl okay, there's the dream girl
okay, and there's the out of your

7
00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:34.119
lead girl. All right, all
right, now let's talk about it.

8
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:40.560
What we're gonna preface the whole preface, preface, the whole conversation on is

9
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:48.960
that people have said that Beyonce is
not jay Z's dream girl. She is

10
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:55.079
the out of your lead girl for
him. And your man Rob here does

11
00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:59.200
not agree with that because he went
with the fact that, but jay Z

12
00:00:59.320 --> 00:01:03.039
always have money and I don't think
that it's just that. But he's had

13
00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:07.799
He's always had money and status just
as long as she's had it. Mmmm.

14
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.959
He was he was he who he
was before she became who she was.

15
00:01:14.319 --> 00:01:19.840
How not it was it was I
think equally she she blew up and

16
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:26.879
surpassed him. I think quicker.
And he's she's beach, larger audience,

17
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:34.879
more endorsements. He I believe,
saw the potential in her to again lift

18
00:01:34.959 --> 00:01:40.439
him up and make his brand bigger, and jumped on that bandwagon, which

19
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:44.799
is what the audi e league girl
supposedly does. She brings prestige to you,

20
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.680
and I think she did do that
for him. And I feel like

21
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:53.040
him, being business savvy, being
the businessman that he is, saw that

22
00:01:53.239 --> 00:02:00.560
recognized it and capitalized off of it. I wouldn't say that he didn't choose

23
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:07.920
someone that was gonna elevate him,
not elevate him, but can walk the

24
00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:16.360
same carpet with him. I don't
think he like if you if you mentioned

25
00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:23.719
like there's very few rappers that you
can mention that everybody knows, and he

26
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:27.879
will be one of those ones.
Like his name would be in anybody in

27
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:34.159
everybody's mouth, whether it be from
the ghetto to the hoity toity now,

28
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:39.680
not even then, not when they
started dating. When did they start dating

29
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:46.639
a long long time? Yeah?
Thanks, let me see when they started

30
00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:52.400
dating a long long time? Yeah? That that helps. You don't have

31
00:02:52.520 --> 00:02:54.400
time to be researching. You need
to come with your facts. You need

32
00:02:54.439 --> 00:03:00.400
to be ready for the debate.
I'm ready for the debate. I just

33
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:04.560
want to. I want you because
you're sitting this made Destiney child. Can

34
00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:09.280
you keep up? Baby bye?
Bring the noise back? Then, long

35
00:03:09.280 --> 00:03:15.120
long time. So in two thousand
they got together. Mm hmmm. How

36
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:23.639
old is Beyonce? M maybe forty
two? You think she's forty forty two?

37
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:28.080
Yeah, you know, I'm not
part of the beehive. Sorry,

38
00:03:28.120 --> 00:03:32.800
guys, I don't know the fact
she's forty two. Look, so twenty

39
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:39.280
two, right, m h that's
when she started becoming she was already Beyonce.

40
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:45.960
Okay, so carrying Destiny's child.
When did Destiny's Child start m when

41
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:51.319
she was like seventeen? Okay,
that we got you know, oh Destiney

42
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:59.159
child. Say my name, Say
my name? So jay Z's fifty four,

43
00:04:00.039 --> 00:04:03.159
thirty four, You don't think he
was already established, well established?

44
00:04:04.120 --> 00:04:09.000
What do you mean well established?
To find well established? That's when he

45
00:04:09.080 --> 00:04:16.040
met her, well established, like
a household name, No, a local

46
00:04:16.120 --> 00:04:21.600
name. You think jay Z was
local New York? Yeah? Thirty four?

47
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:31.399
Yeah, okay, so now he
went. What gives you the the

48
00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:36.199
feeling that jay Z was local at
thirty four? Because that's how I feel.

49
00:04:39.920 --> 00:04:43.120
And if that's how I feel.
I can imagine that, that's how

50
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:51.920
quite a few others feel who were
not hardcore rap fans. So he put

51
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:57.240
out his first record in ninety six
and I wasn't listening to that, and

52
00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:01.240
he put out a record like every
year after that, And you don't think

53
00:05:01.279 --> 00:05:08.240
that name how many people put out
mixtapes every year, But we are like

54
00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:14.399
the critically acclaimed albums. Now,
well, some of them were underrated at

55
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:21.759
the time, okay, but they
he wasn't reaching the audience and the genre

56
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:28.319
that he was reaching till what's the
Ride of Die Song? Tupac song that

57
00:05:28.360 --> 00:05:35.639
they did over him and Beyonce all
I mean, mean, what year was

58
00:05:35.639 --> 00:05:40.160
that and who did that? She
did that? She brought that attention for

59
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:47.199
him? You think that, yeah, absolutely, she helped him reach a

60
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:57.399
completely different audience. I don't think
she helped him reach a different, completely

61
00:05:57.439 --> 00:06:01.360
different audience, like I said,
because you know, we're varying away from

62
00:06:01.439 --> 00:06:05.199
what we're supposed to be discussing and
now we having a rap battle and I

63
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:11.720
can't win that one because I'm not
that burst. But I'm the business aspect

64
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:16.079
I got. But I can't tell
you years the albums and what the sales

65
00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:25.079
did, and et cetera, et
cetera. But gad, you're looking up

66
00:06:25.079 --> 00:06:27.399
a fact. Hit us with the
fact before I move on to the fact

67
00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:31.560
that she's not his dream girl,
but his out of the league girl that

68
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:35.560
you know, pulled him up a
little bit more. Because I believe she

69
00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:44.439
did that. I believe the the
union did that. I can't see how

70
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:50.680
when they met and she was nineteen, two years into her career. Who

71
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:55.439
said it was two years? You
just said she was seventeen. I guess,

72
00:06:55.639 --> 00:06:59.439
just like I guessed her age.
When did Destiny's Child hit the map?

73
00:07:00.560 --> 00:07:12.199
I guessed, let's see, Destiny's
Child was I'm seeing some twenty fifteen

74
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:17.120
numbers. What else you say that
they ended in six When did they come

75
00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:24.920
out? They came out in ninety
eight? Okay, so two years.

76
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:30.480
Again, in two years, you
think that she became more than what he

77
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:40.720
was? Yes, four years,
absolutely, yes, yes. Think about

78
00:07:40.720 --> 00:07:46.040
the audience. I'm thinking about the
audience. Think about who she was,

79
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:54.079
who she attracted. Okay, she
attracted the dudes that's listening to the rap

80
00:07:54.199 --> 00:08:01.920
and the white America, Black America, the Southern Texans who was riding with

81
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:07.800
their girl from over there New Yorker's
liked everybody jay Z was, Brooklyn,

82
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:18.920
Texas wasn't hollering jay Z. So
jay Z sold over forty five million albums

83
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:26.839
by that time. Okay, you
don't think how much they sold. Let's

84
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:31.799
see, we're clearly gonna have to
do a part two to this because we're

85
00:08:31.799 --> 00:08:43.480
not getting to the facts. Come
on now, don't give me no dead

86
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:56.360
air. What he got butterfingers.
He can't pull up the facts quick because

87
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:07.320
I'm trying to figure out what mm
hmm, yeah, exactly more than sixty

88
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:13.759
million, um sixty million? Uh
huh? Which forty five sixteen forty five

89
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:18.840
sixty What does that mean? Two
years? Four years? Drag him up,

90
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:22.559
I reach a big audience. He
recognized the potential in her and jumped

91
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:28.480
on that, and it did boost
him. But don't care what you say.

92
00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:33.080
It didn't necessarily boost them, but
it could because you're saying they're talking

93
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:37.399
about two different demographics. People that
are buying Destiny Child are not necessarily buying

94
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:43.559
rap albums. My point. So, even if he didn't do it with

95
00:09:43.639 --> 00:09:48.240
her, he did. He did
album a record, a whole album with

96
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:52.879
r Kelly. You don't think that
hit him with a broader audience. It

97
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:58.519
tapped into something. It's still not
what he say was tapping into. Beyonce

98
00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:07.480
had white America, the people paying
for these albums, so let's let's put

99
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.440
it in, and they got Black
America, the people who are waiting for

100
00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:15.240
ninety records on the radio. Beyonce
and jay Z never got together. You

101
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:20.480
think jay Z would be less?
Yes, I absolutely do. You don't

102
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:28.039
think he would be a billionaire by
now? No, nope. I can't

103
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:35.120
agree with that, okay, because
once you separate the two, his status

104
00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:39.919
is an elite status. Her status
is an elite status, and you can

105
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:45.320
again walking in the same wane.
Okay, I can't see how you would

106
00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:50.120
not see that he would get to
the upper echelon without her. You don't

107
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.320
think he can have anybody and carry
anybody with him? This is Brooklyn talking.

108
00:10:54.480 --> 00:10:56.759
I just want y'all to know.
But he got Brooklyn on his back

109
00:10:56.840 --> 00:11:05.399
right now? What they I don't
think I disagree with you. I do

110
00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:07.039
not think he can put anybody on
his back and carry them. No,

111
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:11.200
I don't. I don't. He
can't mean he can't put anybody on his

112
00:11:11.240 --> 00:11:16.000
back. That's what you asked me, So you don't think that anybody that

113
00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:20.519
he would have been with he would
still be the same person. No,

114
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:24.360
No, that's that's what I'm saying. No, all right, well,

115
00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:30.919
I mean that's your opinion, right, we're all one, and clearly yours

116
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:37.120
is off the wall again because he
was he was already established. He was,

117
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:43.000
he's the elite in the rap game
and has crossed barriers because he has

118
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:50.440
the clothing, he has the liquor
you know he has. You don't think

119
00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.679
she influenced all of that? Why? Why? How was she influenced?

120
00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:58.879
They're together so oh so she said, hey, you should get a liquor

121
00:11:58.919 --> 00:12:01.559
and he was like, no,
how about when he was when he was

122
00:12:01.600 --> 00:12:05.519
promoting Ace of Spades, he was
like, why am I pulling somebody else's

123
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:07.960
I want my own? Looker,
that's when he got his own. You

124
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:11.720
know, she wasn't having pillow talking, told him that ain't bigger, shoot

125
00:12:11.799 --> 00:12:16.639
higher. So you know what,
let me let me, let's bring you

126
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:22.120
up, think larger, because she's
the out of your league girl. Letting

127
00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.320
him know that if you want to
stay with me, you need to have

128
00:12:24.399 --> 00:12:30.320
your own. Stop working for these
people. We need to create this legacy

129
00:12:33.679 --> 00:12:39.840
because I believe her management would have
been saying that, a ka, Mommy

130
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:45.720
and Daddy. Well, as you
look up your facts and your statistics,

131
00:12:45.879 --> 00:12:50.960
can we get back to the matter
of hand. The five categories agree or

132
00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:54.720
disagree? Did this five categories?
Yes? Do you agree with those five

133
00:12:54.759 --> 00:13:01.080
categories? Okay? Why do y'all
do that? Why do they do that?

134
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:11.240
Why does anybody separate anything? Because
some people are just like, everybody

135
00:13:11.279 --> 00:13:15.440
has an opinion on somebody else.
Now, my ugly may not be your

136
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:20.559
ugly. My cue may not be
your cue. Some people put people in

137
00:13:20.600 --> 00:13:22.799
different categories and they might even be
in the right categories. You said,

138
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:26.159
they might not even be in the
right categories. Yeah, they might not

139
00:13:26.200 --> 00:13:30.240
even be in the right categories.
Some people put people in categories thinking like,

140
00:13:30.279 --> 00:13:33.240
oh, I'm out of their league. Meanwhile, they out of your

141
00:13:33.320 --> 00:13:41.000
league. You know, Like people
always believe that they are at least one

142
00:13:41.080 --> 00:13:46.120
or two rungs higher than what they
are, two rungs in the categories than

143
00:13:46.159 --> 00:13:50.480
they are, Like how many how
many people do you know? They walk

144
00:13:50.519 --> 00:13:52.919
around and be like, yeah,
I'm ugly, but I'm out of people's

145
00:13:52.960 --> 00:13:54.919
league. You thought. Some people
that admit that shit, they know they

146
00:13:56.000 --> 00:13:58.799
ugly, so they got hello personality
and they rock with hell of personality.

147
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:03.720
Yeah, but they don't they don't
necessarily say like they don't believe that they're

148
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:09.200
not in a league. They will
still try. I've seen plenty of ly

149
00:14:09.279 --> 00:14:15.320
guys get beautiful women just because of
they had money or they had good game,

150
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:18.360
right because they knew they were ugly, so they had to have one

151
00:14:18.399 --> 00:14:24.120
or the other. But they don't
necessarily believe that they're out of somebody's league.

152
00:14:24.440 --> 00:14:28.519
But they are definitely playing out of
their league. Okay, So when

153
00:14:28.679 --> 00:14:37.360
categorizing someone, what makes them the
the fun check or the I'm just you

154
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:39.039
know, I'm just hitting you up
for because remember we got the desperate check.

155
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:41.399
So you know, you're not hitting
up the desperate check, but you're

156
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:46.759
taking the desperate chicks calls every now
and again, like you had. You

157
00:14:46.840 --> 00:14:52.840
told us, you told the audience
back in the day that who was the

158
00:14:52.840 --> 00:15:00.240
desperate check. No, you just
said you have to dump somebody at the

159
00:15:00.279 --> 00:15:07.799
restaurant. She wasn't necessarily that we
weren't getting along. That had nothing to

160
00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:09.759
do. You know, I'm trying
to think I'm trying to run back through

161
00:15:11.480 --> 00:15:15.519
you know, because I know some
people that it was with people for chicken.

162
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:20.639
I'm just saying you will that,
And that's what they said. The

163
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:26.000
desperate chick is the one that's that
you call when you only want something and

164
00:15:26.039 --> 00:15:28.799
she's trying to, you know,
give you this, this, that,

165
00:15:30.000 --> 00:15:33.720
and give you stuff to make you
be with her. That's the desperate chick.

166
00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:35.279
She's always getting you up. She's
trying to give you this, give

167
00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:39.919
you that. In an nex,
that's the desperate chick. So what makes

168
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:50.279
someone the good time chick? The
one you only hooking up with and hooking

169
00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:52.840
up with out of town. You
don't want to be seen with her,

170
00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:56.600
but but you could have a good
time with her or make someone a good

171
00:15:56.600 --> 00:16:04.320
time chick. I mean if they
if you're going by the way they're categorized,

172
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:07.639
well you agree with the category.
The time chick would be the one

173
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:12.519
that she's not the cutest thing,
she ight not have, you know,

174
00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:18.440
the best body, but she is
still like when you when you're around her,

175
00:16:18.559 --> 00:16:22.159
you can have a good time.
You can you know, you can

176
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:26.759
get a little bit of you on
late night. You can. You may

177
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:34.240
even be like, how about we
go to like a getaway in like a

178
00:16:34.240 --> 00:16:37.120
Pennsylvania or something like that. She
can she can get a little out of

179
00:16:37.159 --> 00:16:42.360
town trip. But it doesn't necessarily
mean, you know, like she's she's

180
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:48.320
just not somebody that you want around
all the time. But because she's not

181
00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:53.480
the cutest. No, it's just
it's something to do when it's nothing to

182
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:59.039
do, something to do and is
nothing to do? You have, you

183
00:16:59.120 --> 00:17:02.960
have? You know people, let
me call shorty up. I want to

184
00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:06.799
do something, but I don't want
to be I don't want anybody to think

185
00:17:07.200 --> 00:17:10.759
more than what it is. Like
if I want to take somebody and go

186
00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:15.000
away, who can I take?
But you know, it's like I don't

187
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:17.440
want to be I'm not in a
relationship with you, and I don't want

188
00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:21.079
you to think me in a relationship. But you know you're gonna be my

189
00:17:21.119 --> 00:17:27.039
plus one for the weekend. Okay, we'll make someone the good enough chick.

190
00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:37.480
And do you have a relationship with
the good enough check? Yeah,

191
00:17:37.519 --> 00:17:41.319
you have a you have a different
relationship, Like it depends on where you're

192
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:45.599
at in your life. If you
are more like I'm gonna settle down mm

193
00:17:45.680 --> 00:17:49.240
hmm, then the good enough chick
can be somebody who settled down with uh

194
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:53.960
huh. Okay, So why would
you settle down with the good enough chick

195
00:17:53.960 --> 00:17:57.519
and not your dream girl, you
can sell it. No, you settle

196
00:17:57.559 --> 00:18:03.359
down with you dream anywhere for good
enough to to you're settling down with you

197
00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:07.960
can settle down with like you you
don't. You don't settle lower than that.

198
00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:17.039
You don't settle down with the fund
ship and definitely chick. So from

199
00:18:17.079 --> 00:18:19.799
good enough to out of your league, it's somebody you can settle down with.

200
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:27.039
Oh interesting, And does the relationship
hit the same with the good enough

201
00:18:27.119 --> 00:18:30.920
chick that it will with the dream
girl chick or the out of elite chick?

202
00:18:30.599 --> 00:18:33.920
Yeah? Why not? Because one
is good enough and one is what

203
00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:37.319
you really want and the other one
is who what you aspire the person you

204
00:18:37.400 --> 00:18:41.400
aspire to be to be with this
person. Well, the different levels of

205
00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:47.079
the women just kind of dictate which
how you're going to be. Like if

206
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:53.440
you're if you're that, I'm just
gonna settle then you can go from the

207
00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:56.400
Then you go with the good enough, good enough check. If you have

208
00:18:56.920 --> 00:19:02.680
different aspirations, you go with the
dream girl. So what aspirations must one

209
00:19:02.759 --> 00:19:04.799
have to go with the dream girl
and not settle for a good enough chick?

210
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:10.079
The aspirations that you know you have
to keep to be able to keep

211
00:19:10.119 --> 00:19:12.799
the dream girl and then be able
to get the girls just out of your

212
00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:17.559
league. Wait, so now you're
using the dream girl to get the girl's

213
00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:19.160
out of You're not using her to
get but I'm saying, but that's that's

214
00:19:19.279 --> 00:19:22.920
where that springboard will go from.
Like I can get my dream girl.

215
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.000
Like I'm with my dream girl,
but now I need somebody out of my

216
00:19:26.079 --> 00:19:30.559
league because I aspired to be more. I'm more now, So go out

217
00:19:30.599 --> 00:19:33.400
of my league. Technically, you
be using the good enough chick to get

218
00:19:33.400 --> 00:19:36.599
to your dream girl. You don't
have to. You can stay with the

219
00:19:37.319 --> 00:19:41.440
dream girl. See and she made
sub consciously. You just said you can

220
00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:44.880
stay with the dream girl. I
asked you about the good enough chick.

221
00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:47.240
Can you talk about the dream girl? No, I said all of them.

222
00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:48.359
I just told you all of them
you can stay with. Right,

223
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:52.720
But you're talking about catapultans. So
are you gonna use the good enough chick

224
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:56.400
to catapult yourself to your dream girl? No? No, you can't catapult

225
00:19:56.440 --> 00:20:02.359
yourself for that. Why not because
the good enough chick you you're settling.

226
00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:06.759
You are settling, So there's nothing
I'm not looking for. Oh you know,

227
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:10.119
try to get this amazing woman like
I'm cool with it, like where

228
00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:14.240
I am in my life, you
know, So you don't have those aspirations

229
00:20:14.279 --> 00:20:18.519
to hit that dream girl status.
You just I'm good, like I know,

230
00:20:18.640 --> 00:20:25.519
I know my my laying and I'm
gonna stay in it. You don't

231
00:20:25.559 --> 00:20:33.400
have to necessarily want to, you
know, like most people will not will

232
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:38.559
not go too far above their league, you know, like it depends on

233
00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:42.880
your personality if you if you feel
like you can handle it, then you

234
00:20:42.920 --> 00:20:47.000
know you'll reach that I want that
dream girl. But we're talking to you,

235
00:20:47.119 --> 00:20:53.880
so oh we're talking to man.
Please league go out of my league

236
00:20:53.920 --> 00:21:00.400
all the time. Here we go
with the b as. I'm shooting shots

237
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:04.519
all over the place, bust shots
here, bust shots there. But that's

238
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:11.799
not it has nothing to do with
me thinking me. It's not nothing to

239
00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:15.720
do with anything but me knowing who
I am as far as my personality like

240
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:23.880
it has like I'm I don't even
look at looks because if if if I

241
00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:29.400
had an accident tomorrow, looks or
go wait, you don't look at whose

242
00:21:29.440 --> 00:21:34.319
looks? Your looks looks like?
Because I was about to say you straight

243
00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:37.240
capping as the young people say if
you were saying you don't consider that,

244
00:21:38.799 --> 00:21:42.240
not that I mean I don't.
I don't consider looks like like looks or

245
00:21:42.279 --> 00:21:49.279
not in the forefront. For me, looks help, but they're not because

246
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:56.960
again I might miss an opportunity with
somebody because of a look. And then

247
00:21:56.000 --> 00:22:00.839
again, who's saying that I'm everybody's
cup of tea? So I'm not.

248
00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:03.839
This person's like, how do I
turn around and say, well, I'm

249
00:22:03.839 --> 00:22:11.079
better than you? I don't feel
like that. So there's not a look

250
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:15.400
standard because I've had it where I
thought I was a man and mother would

251
00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:18.559
be like, oh, no,
you're not, and shoot me down.

252
00:22:18.599 --> 00:22:25.400
I'm like, how back to the
drawing board, you know. And then

253
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:27.960
of course later on they'd be like, oh, you know, I didn't

254
00:22:27.960 --> 00:22:32.039
know you were that cool. Oh
see, you didn't get me a shot

255
00:22:32.079 --> 00:22:36.799
because you went off of what you
thought I was, what you perceived me

256
00:22:36.839 --> 00:22:42.240
to be. So, like I
said to me, it's not about looks.

257
00:22:41.839 --> 00:22:45.759
It's more about a personality. Like
a personality'll send you over the top.

258
00:22:47.319 --> 00:22:49.000
Okay, so what is dream girl
status for you? What do they

259
00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:55.119
encompass? It's not looks, No, it has somebody has a head,

260
00:22:55.240 --> 00:22:59.200
a good head on their shoulders and
has aspirations and want to do more,

261
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:08.640
Like what at this age you have
to build, like to get like like

262
00:23:08.680 --> 00:23:15.200
there's property or business or something like
that. They don't have to be like

263
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.839
I'm it doesn't definitely not like oh
I wanted somebody to be to get the

264
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:23.240
marriage and and you know, and
have the four kids in the house.

265
00:23:23.279 --> 00:23:29.960
And the already got four kids in
the house, so you know, it's

266
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:33.960
like that's not the standard. The
standard is like, okay, what more

267
00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:41.599
can there be? So you said
business aspirations, Business aspirations basically money financial

268
00:23:41.880 --> 00:23:45.640
financial goals, right, like like
I'm cool with like I'm not necessarily just

269
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:49.720
cool staying here, but I want
to get a little bit more or get

270
00:23:49.759 --> 00:23:55.440
a lot more. But you want
to get more like you, I want

271
00:23:55.440 --> 00:23:56.640
to I want to be comfortable.
I want to keep I want to keep

272
00:23:56.680 --> 00:24:03.279
moving forward, not staying stagnant.
So that's it. That's it what I

273
00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:07.799
was asking what all encompasses the dream
girl fa Yeah, that pretty much is

274
00:24:07.799 --> 00:24:12.240
it? Because anything else is superficial
to me, Like looks a superficial body

275
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:17.720
is a superficial you know, like
although that's superficial, I want that that

276
00:24:17.799 --> 00:24:22.000
personality, and that that that mindset
that it's like okay, because you can

277
00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:25.319
only talk to a war so long
before you be like, all right,

278
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:30.119
I can't do this anymore. So
you have to have something that you can

279
00:24:30.160 --> 00:24:33.880
bounce the idea off of. All
right, and what's your out of out

280
00:24:33.920 --> 00:24:37.759
of league person? Look like,
what's my There's not an out of league

281
00:24:37.799 --> 00:24:45.000
person that looks like anything to me, Like, I don't see anybody as

282
00:24:45.079 --> 00:24:51.440
out of my league. Now.
The reality is people will be like,

283
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:56.640
oh, well, this type of
person is out of your league. But

284
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:00.559
I think if you sat me in
a room with a person, chip away

285
00:25:00.599 --> 00:25:07.880
at them now, and if they
like, if they can put everything other

286
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:15.680
things aside, like if it wasn't
if they believed in certain things like let's

287
00:25:15.680 --> 00:25:18.279
say they believe that I had this
kind of money or I had this kind

288
00:25:18.319 --> 00:25:22.160
of power, if they put all
of that aside, and they were just

289
00:25:22.160 --> 00:25:26.119
going off for personality and look,
I don't think there's anybody out of my

290
00:25:26.160 --> 00:25:33.119
leage personality and look mean and look
and looks, oh you think you're that

291
00:25:33.200 --> 00:25:36.599
cute. I know I'm not cute. What the hell this conversation? Just

292
00:25:36.640 --> 00:25:41.720
now? What the hell you just
said looks don't matter what it don't matter.

293
00:25:41.880 --> 00:25:45.599
I said, like, looks don't
matter to me, Like I'm not,

294
00:25:45.799 --> 00:25:49.720
I'm not stuck on. Hey,
I look amazing, and you know

295
00:25:49.759 --> 00:25:52.880
you have to you have to want
me because I look amazing. But that's

296
00:25:52.920 --> 00:25:56.920
what you just say. If they
could go on personality and looks right,

297
00:25:56.920 --> 00:26:00.440
personality, it looks, I think
they're not anyone that's out of my leap,

298
00:26:03.480 --> 00:26:07.720
Like I'm I'm I'm I'm confident enough
in myself that I don't think there's

299
00:26:07.720 --> 00:26:12.519
anybody out of my leap. You
know, delusion is a thing and it

300
00:26:12.599 --> 00:26:18.839
can be all right, okay,
Right, So there's there's the five categories.

301
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:22.200
You say they exist. They are
definitely a thing. They're definitely a

302
00:26:22.279 --> 00:26:33.440
thing, and through the five categories
change with age. I'm pretty sure.

303
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:40.759
I'm pretty sure that if fifty and
up be like, you know what,

304
00:26:40.880 --> 00:26:45.079
the desperate girl is looking kind of
good right now. Wow, you go

305
00:26:45.160 --> 00:26:48.279
to the bottom of the room and
be like wow, you know, like

306
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:53.119
you're looking for companionship that desperate girl, you know, fulfill that need.

307
00:26:56.519 --> 00:27:00.680
You should never lower your standards.
I didn't say me. If we're talking

308
00:27:00.720 --> 00:27:06.200
to you, you are our guinea
pig in this and this you are to

309
00:27:06.240 --> 00:27:14.559
do with me? Now? I'm
still standing on three and higher? What

310
00:27:15.759 --> 00:27:18.759
what you got? Now? Where
are you at? Yeah? Where you

311
00:27:18.839 --> 00:27:22.839
at? You at good enough?
I'm at one. You said three higher?

312
00:27:23.279 --> 00:27:27.960
Yeah, well I settled. Don't
be trying to tell nobody out there.

313
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:34.880
I'm a desperate chick. There's no
way, no way you want to

314
00:27:34.880 --> 00:27:38.519
rephrase that. Let's let's clear it
up for the people. No, you

315
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:42.440
you were definitely I could put you
at a four. You're definitely a dream

316
00:27:42.480 --> 00:27:51.039
girl because you know you have the
aspiration. What war you lucky? You

317
00:27:51.119 --> 00:27:53.000
got four? You could have got
a three? Why would I get a

318
00:27:53.039 --> 00:28:00.640
three? Because you just like that
four? Like you think you that you?

319
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:03.319
Oh so wait, you're the only
one in this relationship that's supposed to

320
00:28:03.319 --> 00:28:06.440
have confidence. No, I don't
know. Oh, because your girl is

321
00:28:06.480 --> 00:28:12.519
confident, No doubt about that.
There's no doubt in my mind that you're

322
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:17.000
not confident. I'm not confident that
you. I mean that you are.

323
00:28:17.920 --> 00:28:26.400
Well you see what I do not
at all? All right, you are

324
00:28:26.400 --> 00:28:33.960
one under confident. Yeah. It
took a lot to get because I'm like,

325
00:28:34.839 --> 00:28:41.920
you're not confident? No, you
are confident? Okay, all right,

326
00:28:42.000 --> 00:28:45.680
well, thanks for clearing up the
categories for us, and you know,

327
00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:49.640
letting us know that you guys automatically
put us in a box, and

328
00:28:49.920 --> 00:28:53.200
we don't automatically put your all the
box. Y'all put yourselves in the boxes.

329
00:28:55.480 --> 00:28:57.640
Yeah, y'all do, y'all put
yourselves in the boxes. We just

330
00:28:57.680 --> 00:29:04.799
have the label. Is that right? That's right? Like y'all sit there,

331
00:29:04.880 --> 00:29:11.359
y'all know who y'all are when y'all
step up. Okay, So I

332
00:29:11.400 --> 00:29:18.000
automatically was in a dream girl box
when I holler yeah really yeah, because

333
00:29:18.039 --> 00:29:22.720
you you you had the confidence already, you had the aspirations. You were

334
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:26.039
who you were before you met me, So it had nothing to do with

335
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:33.880
me. So like if it was
me or somebody else, you would have

336
00:29:33.920 --> 00:29:38.559
still been one hundred confident in yourself. Okay, so you already you already

337
00:29:38.559 --> 00:29:44.920
have your box. So you don't
think people change based on who they're dealing

338
00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:49.039
with, Like you don't think for
somebody else, I might be the good

339
00:29:49.119 --> 00:29:55.240
enough or the fun girl, because
I'm sure I've been somebody's fun girl in

340
00:29:55.279 --> 00:30:00.599
life, but that would probably be
something that you choose. Like you,

341
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:07.640
you, I don't think you were
the type of person that would be like,

342
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:11.039
I want to be the fun girl, unless you wanted to be the

343
00:30:11.039 --> 00:30:15.720
fun girl. If you had,
if you had an idea like I want

344
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:18.599
to be I want to be in
this relationship, then you would have been

345
00:30:18.680 --> 00:30:25.200
that dream girl with the aspirations.
But they wasn't necessarily on that page.

346
00:30:25.559 --> 00:30:27.279
But you chose, you know what, I'm gonna go ahead and be the

347
00:30:27.279 --> 00:30:34.160
fun girl or a good enough girl. So you're trying to say, again,

348
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:41.960
that is on me to be that
that that person chooses which level they

349
00:30:41.960 --> 00:30:47.200
want to play at. Women,
right, you're saying men can't put them

350
00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:52.759
in a box that they don't allow
themselves to be in. You're saying the

351
00:30:52.839 --> 00:30:59.079
women will not allow men to put
them in the box that they do not

352
00:30:59.240 --> 00:31:02.519
choose to put them in a box, any box that they want to put

353
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:06.519
them in it. But woman to
be allowed to Okay, this is the

354
00:31:06.519 --> 00:31:10.640
box that you're gonna put me in. She has to ask for it,

355
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:15.359
not you know, but she has
to command. Okay, Well, I

356
00:31:15.400 --> 00:31:18.200
thought she was the you know,
the good time girl, but clearly she's

357
00:31:18.200 --> 00:31:26.599
a dream girl. So her actions
will dictate what box she's actually in.

358
00:31:26.799 --> 00:31:30.240
Even if you had miscategorized her,
right, Okay, you could have you

359
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:34.720
could. You can easily miscategorize you
trying to follow her in the desperate but

360
00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:38.240
then you realize, now she's just
to go get her and I was seeing

361
00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:42.359
it wrong. Okay, all right, good talk. I like this one.

362
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:51.559
This was this one was insightful.
Yeah, anyway, we're gonna wrap

363
00:31:51.559 --> 00:31:55.359
it up. That was another episode
of Gems and Tonic. I think we

364
00:31:55.400 --> 00:31:57.880
got hit with a couple of gems
tonight. I mean, you're gonna keep

365
00:31:57.920 --> 00:32:01.799
living life and laughing at it.
Yeah. Later, two suits
