• 0:08
  It's the King Consultant podcast where we're turning up the heat
• 0:11
  on all things kink and dating, relationships and pop culture.
• 0:14
  So close the door, plug in your headphones and let's get down to
• 0:17
  it. Hello and welcome to this week's
• 0:23
  episode of The King Consultant. Today I am joined by a special
• 0:27
  friend and business Dom. That is not her official name,
• 0:31
  but I have Brenda, my business manager, who I speak with on the
• 0:36
  daily. And I've brought her in because
• 0:38
  she is, admittedly, she is itself said her living
• 0:41
  vicariously through my dating life.
• 0:43
  So I thought, if I'm going to talk about my dating life on the
• 0:45
  podcast, there's no one else I want here other than Brenda.
• 0:49
  Welcome, Brenda. I love the biz Dom and I'm
• 0:53
  totally taking it. From now on, I am your official
• 0:56
  Biz Dom. So.
• 0:58
  Let's talk about it, yeah? I can't wait to tell you all of
• 1:03
  it. So obviously, a lot of people
• 1:04
  are already following me on Instagram or Tiktok.
• 1:07
  Instagram Stories is where every little piece of my dating life
• 1:10
  is sort of documented. So if you're on there, you know
• 1:14
  some stuff. But I want to go in depth.
• 1:16
  Brenda, what do you want to know?
• 1:17
  I mean, I'm not hugely in the kink world, right?
• 1:20
  So I'm coming from, say, complete outside perspective.
• 1:23
  So I wanna know, like, what made you say yes to the text message
• 1:28
  of like, hey, let's meet up. You mentioned a couple of people
• 1:31
  and I think this one guy in particular sticks out.
• 1:36
  Target Guy. Target Guy is the front runner
• 1:38
  at the moment. I went on a lot of dates last
• 1:40
  week and Target Guy just kind of felt like he came out of
• 1:44
  nowhere. I mean, we messaged and he was
• 1:46
  so funny. He was a strong communicator
• 1:49
  from the get go. Like he had filled out his
• 1:51
  profile well, but he also his first message was like, I wanted
• 1:55
  to make sure you read this specific part of my profile.
• 1:58
  OK, what was it? It was just that he is only in
• 2:01
  town 2 weeks a month. He lives here, but he travels
• 2:04
  for work. OK.
• 2:05
  That's manageable though. I mean, it gives you time to be
• 2:08
  able to see other people. I am single and mingling.
• 2:12
  I thought this was perfect too. I said that's fine.
• 2:14
  And then he responded and I guess I left it a little too
• 2:18
  long between his response and me ever responding.
• 2:21
  So he double messaged like the next day.
• 2:24
  OK, that tells me interest. OK, OK, I.
• 2:26
  Know his message back was you're right, let's skip the small
• 2:30
  talk. So from the beginning, he just
• 2:32
  made an assumption. He just pushed the conversation
• 2:35
  along in a really great way. He said let's go on a date.
• 2:38
  What time are you available on Thursday?
• 2:40
  Had he said no, this is big, OK. Had he said are you free on
• 2:45
  Thursday, I would have said no, not really.
• 2:47
  Yeah, but because he said, well, what time are you free?
• 2:50
  I was like, it put me in the hot seat.
• 2:52
  I was like, I'm not free on Thursday, but I am on Friday at
• 2:55
  5:00. And yeah.
• 2:56
  Did you know it was also a yes no question?
• 2:59
  It wasn't a yes no question. Maybe it was.
• 3:03
  I'm doing this. I'm taking you out like, OK,
• 3:06
  Daddy. So I was forced to like give my
• 3:11
  availability just from the phrasing.
• 3:13
  So he does phrasing. We like that.
• 3:16
  He invited me to a specific cafe.
• 3:18
  I was like, let's go at 4. Then because he had a hard stop
• 3:22
  early on in the evening. We have the plan set.
• 3:25
  That's a Wednesday. So on Friday morning I text him.
• 3:28
  I say you still want to meet today, which in hindsight was a
• 3:31
  little bit direct. I should have said good morning
• 3:33
  or something, but it's fine. He said I'm not excited for it.
• 3:37
  Does 4 still work for you? No.
• 3:41
  And his grammar and everything. Like there's a comment and a
• 3:44
  question mark in this, like he's typed this out well and I said
• 3:49
  four death works, but if you're not excited, we should just
• 3:53
  skip. Talk about deflated.
• 3:55
  I was convinced this man is sort of busy.
• 3:59
  Is like, yeah. Yeah, whatever.
• 4:00
  Yeah, no, I carried that for the day.
• 4:04
  So much so I put it on stories because I was like am I
• 4:07
  overreacting or is like. What is happening?
• 4:09
  Yes. I jokingly said I'd like the
• 4:11
  person to at least look forward to meeting because that's what
• 4:14
  you want when dating. Right.
• 4:17
  He said he's sorry. I did not mean to put it that in
• 4:20
  there. And he sent those like crying
• 4:21
  emojis. Sure, sure, sure.
• 4:22
  Sure. Yeah, yeah.
• 4:24
  Good half save and then I have the poll going so that I can
• 4:27
  Crowdsource whether or not we all think that this.
• 4:30
  Is excellent. And a typo or not?
• 4:33
  And. So we exchanged numbers because
• 4:36
  I'm like this guy, I'm not sure if he's hot or cold on this
• 4:39
  meeting. So I'm like, let me just at
• 4:40
  least get his number so that if he doesn't show up, I can call
• 4:42
  him and be like, where are you? He texts me later in the day.
• 4:46
  He says I'm on my way in Vegas. Everywhere in Vegas is 35
• 4:49
  minutes away. Everywhere Max like in 35
• 4:51
  minutes goes you have to go. He's leaving an hour early and
• 4:54
  I'm like where are you coming from thinking this is already
• 4:57
  weird. He says he's in town 2 weeks but
• 5:00
  I'm suspicious of it. But also screams out of Towner
• 5:03
  because you're like, clearly you don't know where you're going.
• 5:06
  He texts me back about 20 minutes later and he said, I
• 5:10
  just realized the cafe I wanted to take you to doesn't open
• 5:13
  until 50. So I'm like, is this date even
• 5:17
  happening? And remember, he originally does
• 5:19
  say he wants to meet at 5:00, but then he needs to meet
• 5:21
  earlier because of work. So I, I can be forgiving.
• 5:24
  I said, let's just meet at Starbucks.
• 5:26
  This guy's already looking for a different place to go.
• 5:28
  And anyone who knows me knows that I'm a Grande Americano from
• 5:31
  Starbucks anytime of day. I love it.
• 5:34
  I'm not angry at a Starbucks date.
• 5:36
  So we've sensed the address of 1 and I look at it and I think, Oh
• 5:39
  no, no, no, no, no, no. This is not a sit down Cafe
• 5:41
  Starbucks. This is a Target Starbucks.
• 5:44
  I've enjoyed many any of Starbucks and Target walk
• 5:48
  arounds with my girlfriends or even on my own on a Saturday
• 5:50
  quiet morning. Do love it.
• 5:52
  Is this where I want my first date with someone to be?
• 5:56
  I. Don't know.
• 5:58
  I mean it opens it up to loads of like getting to know each
• 6:01
  other real quick. We had no choice.
• 6:02
  So I call him really quickly, which I always think is a good
• 6:07
  sign. When you end up having to be on
• 6:08
  the phone real quick because you get a voice check, you get a
• 6:11
  vibe check, it's like. It's and it's like spur of the
• 6:14
  moment. So like they're not expecting it
• 6:17
  either, right? Yeah.
• 6:18
  Because I didn't text him to say I'm calling.
• 6:20
  I explain I'm like, are you OK with that?
• 6:22
  I'm fine with it. And I tell him I'm going to be
• 6:25
  late because at this stage there's no chance in hell of
• 6:27
  making it on top. And I figure once he knows, I
• 6:30
  have a little bit more time. So I make a quick Instagram
• 6:32
  video to tell everybody I'm about to go On this date at
• 6:35
  Target to see what it's like because.
• 6:37
  FYI, here's where I am, just in case.
• 6:41
  I need people to know. I need people to know I'm
• 6:43
  dating. I show up 16 minutes late.
• 6:46
  I am never that late for a date. In fact, I'm really against it.
• 6:49
  I think it's really poor manners to be that late, but I do think
• 6:53
  that the snafu held me up a little bit because I was trying
• 6:56
  to figure out the plan and. You got brownie points, you're
• 6:58
  good. Yeah, but equally I get there.
• 7:01
  There is no Target guy outside of Starbucks.
• 7:05
  And I figure, well, I'm here now.
• 7:06
  I'm not just going to stand here and wait, I want my coffee.
• 7:09
  So I line up and I get my coffee and I text him like, are you
• 7:12
  still here? He made a joke about not wanting
• 7:14
  to look like a stalker, which how would he?
• 7:17
  But whatever, it was pretty funny.
• 7:19
  He was like he said. So he took a lap like it was a
• 7:22
  sports game that he was warming up for and he took a lap around
• 7:25
  Target. So he came up and he said, can I
• 7:28
  get you a drink? I said I've already ordered.
• 7:30
  OK, so you started walking around the halls.
• 7:32
  What were you thinking? When you're walking through
• 7:34
  like, you know the shower curtains for God's.
• 7:38
  Sakes. So I'm thinking I'm a target.
• 7:40
  I've just moved into a new place.
• 7:42
  I'm unpacking their stuff I need.
• 7:44
  So I'm thinking what do I need? What do I want to go buy?
• 7:47
  So in my head I'm making a mental list of all the things I
• 7:51
  need to hit while here and I'm like, do I tell him where
• 7:54
  there's a checklist now that we're at a target?
• 7:56
  Or do I just naturally bring us to where I need to do it?
• 7:59
  Just do it, Just do it. What proceeds to happen is we
• 8:03
  have the most most in depth conversations out of nowhere.
• 8:07
  So I asked about his job. I asked ended up doing his job.
• 8:10
  We talk about his education, everything from kindergarten up
• 8:15
  until right now. OK, like this isn't the typical
• 8:18
  thing for like first dates because you need to remember
• 8:21
  it's been 20 plus years. I go deep because it's just my
• 8:25
  natural inclination to not let anybody ask me any questions and
• 8:28
  just go, But I appreciated that he equally asked me questions
• 8:32
  back and entertained my conversation as much as his.
• 8:35
  Yeah. OK.
• 8:36
  So he was given just as much as you were.
• 8:38
  Yeah. And something else I noticed
• 8:40
  that set this date apart is sometimes when I'm on a date,
• 8:43
  the other person has no problem answering my questions and
• 8:47
  talking about themselves, and that's what I do.
• 8:49
  You are a coach. You listen for a living like.
• 8:52
  Crack you open and have you tell me everything about yourself
• 8:55
  yeah yeah, yeah but then sometimes when I transition into
• 8:58
  sharing a fun story about me or talking about me, sometimes I
• 9:00
  see their face maybe glaze over but he made.
• 9:03
  Space. That's another little Yeah
• 9:06
  target guy. That's a rubber.
• 9:08
  So like the bar is low, right? We're going in and the bar is
• 9:11
  starting low. Like, oh, he actually listens.
• 9:14
  But I think that's a really good sign to look up.
• 9:17
  We go really deep. We talk about our childhoods,
• 9:21
  how we grew up, what we start to just touch on the big things
• 9:26
  that happen, you know, and that is not, that is not normal.
• 9:29
  I do not normally talk about this much.
• 9:32
  I think about my life in relation to these things and
• 9:35
  that might be the difference because I can get that
• 9:39
  information from anyone, but I don't always give it up as
• 9:41
  easily. Right, right.
• 9:43
  Do you feel like being surrounded literally by
• 9:47
  HomeGoods and like peeling that layer back, making you feel more
• 9:53
  comfortable? Like, do you feel that that like
• 9:56
  helped towards opening up? Yeah, no, you're on to
• 9:59
  something. Because there were little things
• 10:01
  that I would get excited to go look at and then I would ask him
• 10:03
  questions about things based on what I was looking at, and they
• 10:07
  were random things. So there were Christmas lights
• 10:09
  up. And I love Christmas.
• 10:10
  I love decorating for Christmas. I'm not decorating my house this
• 10:13
  year because I'm so focused on unpacking, right?
• 10:16
  But I wanted to see everything. So I was like, can we go look at
• 10:18
  the lights with a lot of excitement?
• 10:20
  And that led to questions about holidays celebrated, what
• 10:24
  holidays we liked, and he didn't.
• 10:25
  I think this is maybe like the news you dating like go
• 10:29
  shopping. Now I want this to be every
• 10:32
  first date, but I worry it would make this one less special.
• 10:35
  And then I eventually did tell him.
• 10:37
  I said, you know what? I just moved into a new place.
• 10:38
  I need to get a shower curtain. I gave him the heads up.
• 10:42
  We would eventually make it over there.
• 10:43
  And we did. And I sort of started to explain
• 10:46
  my logic. He didn't ask, I just said like,
• 10:49
  I like that, but it's a little tacky to have in my home.
• 10:53
  So I explained my logic, the vibe and aesthetic I was going
• 10:57
  for. OK, so how does one go from the
• 11:01
  basic that you just did to the not so basic?
• 11:05
  The brilliance of being a sex and relationship coach who
• 11:07
  specializes in kink. Brent, I just went straight for
• 11:11
  it. Remember, I am the zero chill
• 11:14
  girl. I have zero chill when it comes
• 11:15
  to a burning question. Like, when did you first realize
• 11:19
  you were interested in kink? That's a big one for me.
• 11:22
  I want to know and I'm going to ask it.
• 11:25
  So I sort of not sure how the date was going.
• 11:28
  I said to him like, listen, I'm really enjoying this.
• 11:31
  I'd love to chat again, even if not as a date.
• 11:33
  And he said that he'd really like to see me again as well.
• 11:37
  Yeah. So the vibes were definitely
• 11:39
  there until we start to figure out when we could possibly
• 11:42
  schedule another date together. So remember, he's out of town
• 11:46
  for two a month. So that means he's not here for
• 11:48
  the holidays either. No, that's the problem.
• 11:51
  I'm not there for the holidays. We are nearly six weeks out.
• 11:55
  We settle on our next date being January 23rd.
• 11:58
  The first date is Friday, December 6th.
• 12:01
  We're not meeting again until January 23rd.
• 12:04
  And he says he'd really like to stay chatting, like in texting.
• 12:07
  So how does that make you feel? I'm feeling that that is a
• 12:11
  Millennium away. Six weeks in, a lot.
• 12:15
  It's a lot. And this date that I'm on with
• 12:19
  him is my 4th date of the week. But also the only guy that
• 12:22
  you've really told me. True.
• 12:24
  That is 100% true. There's something to be said
• 12:27
  about those vibes of, you know, like sometimes you just hit it.
• 12:31
  OK, I'll tell you something that I met my husband.
• 12:34
  We were working at a restaurant together and we literally the
• 12:38
  first words we ever said to each other were profanities.
• 12:41
  I asked him for French fries very kindly.
• 12:45
  I said please and thank you in the same sentence because of me.
• 12:50
  Yes, I know so. Nice.
• 12:52
  And he's the cook, he's the guy making the fries.
• 12:55
  And he turned around and looked at me and he goes, I didn't do
• 12:58
  shit for you, why the fuck are you thanking me?
• 13:02
  And I just went get me some fucking French fries.
• 13:06
  You want to be a bitch, I'll be a bitch, you know?
• 13:09
  You said that. 100% like, fuck you.
• 13:12
  Like give me my fries, you know what I mean?
• 13:15
  I get my fries. And then, you know, all of a
• 13:17
  sudden it was like, hey, he's a bad guy or not a bad guy, but
• 13:21
  he's like, he's the bad boy, you know what I mean?
• 13:23
  And like you start to get to know who he is.
• 13:25
  He's got a little bit attitude. So I'm like, OK.
• 13:28
  And then sure enough, within three months, the two of us were
• 13:31
  dating. Within another three months, we
• 13:35
  were moved in together. And it has been 20 years, almost
• 13:38
  like it's going to be 20 years. Yep.
• 13:41
  Just so you know, that's like the short story, but we started
• 13:45
  off fuck yous and now it's 20 years later.
• 13:48
  So one thing I'm gonna say, even though it's been 20 years, is
• 13:51
  just have fun with it. And like, if you feel pulled in
• 13:56
  a certain direction, don't don't mess.
• 13:58
  With it, it's a really good point, but I was like I could
• 14:00
  get pulled in 30 other directions in the net.
• 14:03
  And that's OK. But that's totally.
• 14:05
  OK. Too No.
• 14:06
  It's hard though, cuz then like I'm telling this person I'm
• 14:09
  already too serious about it because I'm telling this person
• 14:13
  one thing and the exact I'm like, he could also meet someone
• 14:17
  in six weeks, right? Until.
• 14:19
  So we part ways, we don't kiss, and I sit in the car and of
• 14:23
  course make a quick Instagram video about how well it went
• 14:26
  because I really enjoyed it. Because that's what we do.
• 14:28
  It is what we do. And about an hour later I get a
• 14:30
  text from him and I'm delighted. And he said what a good time he
• 14:34
  had and I'm thinking I had a good time too.
• 14:35
  And I said, yeah, I had a lot of fun, too.
• 14:37
  And then he pulls out what I consider to be the craziest line
• 14:41
  I've ever heard, considering we're not going on another date
• 14:43
  for six weeks. He says if you see that we're no
• 14:46
  longer matched, it's not because I had matched you.
• 14:48
  It's because I like to get to know one person at a time.
• 14:51
  And I'm going to delete Hinge. And I think that's unhinged
• 14:55
  behavior to date after one date. OK.
• 14:59
  I don't, I don't know. I've been between it because
• 15:02
  like, in one way, I'm so there for that.
• 15:05
  Just getting to know you and not having any other distractions
• 15:10
  means that to me. He's ready.
• 15:12
  He actually wants to meet somebody, so he's not fucking
• 15:15
  around, OK? But am I ready to meet somebody
• 15:18
  who knows who knows who knows who knows is right?
• 15:21
  It's true. I don't know but.
• 15:24
  Isn't that why we date? That is, yes, you're right.
• 15:27
  That is why we date. So I just tell him like, maybe
• 15:30
  don't like please don't. But I will tell you that it
• 15:34
  reframed how I viewed him and we already had this date of like
• 15:40
  the second date set. But for me, in a good way or bad
• 15:43
  way, yeah. Good question.
• 15:45
  At first it was a scared way I thought he was not maybe that's
• 15:50
  his name, not target. But at the same time, that was a
• 15:53
  lot more about how I viewed my own dating life and what I'm
• 15:56
  doing versus, you know, what he's trying to achieve.
• 15:59
  I felt, whoa, that's putting a lot of pressure on me.
• 16:02
  And he did a great job of pointing out no, no, no, you do
• 16:05
  you. I'm not asking you to stop doing
• 16:07
  you. In fact, you're the 4th date.
• 16:09
  You're my 4th date of the week. He said you're my 4th date in
• 16:12
  two weeks, sort of. And I like that.
• 16:14
  It was a little like, OK, a little bit.
• 16:16
  You're dating a lot. So am I.
• 16:18
  Like don't act like you're the only.
• 16:19
  One who can get it. You're not the only one, Missy.
• 16:22
  Yeah. I was like, OK, cool.
• 16:24
  So there we are. We've been texting every day,
• 16:29
  OK? You know what, we're going to
• 16:30
  have to have a whole bunch of different episodes just on like
• 16:33
  what it looks like to date this like just today.
• 16:36
  I can't even imagine. Can't even.
• 16:39
  No, you're right, because dating now is even different from when
• 16:41
  I dated 8 years ago. It is imagine 20, like I met
• 16:46
  him. Like if I didn't work in the
• 16:48
  restaurant business, I wouldn't have met him.
• 16:50
  You know what I mean? Like.
• 16:52
  Well, and also that's that's crazy you met in real life.
• 16:56
  Yeah, in real life, not on an app, nothing.
• 16:58
  And. I've had people approach me in
• 17:00
  real life because of the kink thing.
• 17:03
  I'm like, I really like to get it out there a little bit
• 17:05
  sooner. I do date on some apps with zero
• 17:09
  reference to kink, but I prefer to meet people who are into it
• 17:12
  because I know it's super important to me.
• 17:14
  So, OK, So what apps are you currently?
• 17:16
  Using there are two kink focused apps I'm on Meet kinksters and
• 17:21
  BD app. I had both founders on for those
• 17:24
  apps on the podcast earlier in like previous episodes.
• 17:28
  Then I'm on the generic ones, let's call them the vanilla
• 17:31
  ones. I'm on Hinge, Raya, Tinder and
• 17:35
  the League. OK, OK, the league.
• 17:37
  Is the new boy that I keep hearing about from all of these
• 17:40
  housewives. But the league has been around
• 17:43
  for a really long time. But yeah, it's, I don't, it's
• 17:45
  supposed to be in a league of their own type of people.
• 17:49
  But yeah, it's one of those things I'm like, well, if I'm in
• 17:53
  this and I'm seeing all the same people I see on Tinder and
• 17:56
  Hinge, then Enriya, right? Yeah.
• 17:59
  All of these apps are just different versions of the same
• 18:03
  thing. OK.
• 18:04
  Right. Can't get on one, you get on the
• 18:06
  other. Or on all of them like.
• 18:08
  On all of them. There are people who I see on
• 18:11
  every single app. Every single app, in fact.
• 18:14
  Isn't that interesting then? Oh, that's a whole other topic.
• 18:17
  But that's that in itself is interesting, because it means
• 18:20
  that is there actually a real algorithm working in the
• 18:24
  background, Do you know? Oh, that's a good question,
• 18:27
  because we're all meeting each. Other, yeah.
• 18:30
  I just matched with someone today though that I have matched
• 18:33
  with I like. I messaged him jokingly.
• 18:35
  I said so should we match on five apps before we actually
• 18:38
  meet in person? We've already matched on Tinder,
• 18:41
  Raya, the league and Hinge and today with the league.
• 18:44
  So I've matched with this person on 4 apps.
• 18:46
  And it's and yet you're not matching.
• 18:49
  No, we're not meeting, and I think that speaks a little bit
• 18:52
  to what dating is like as well. There are people that we keep
• 18:55
  coming across. We obviously find each other
• 18:57
  attractive because we keep swiping right or picking each
• 18:59
  other right. But not making it happen.
• 19:01
  So like what's happening in the background of your brain, that's
• 19:05
  like, you know what I mean? Whereas you hit the trigger with
• 19:08
  this guy. I think that a lot of the reason
• 19:10
  that I did, when I look back at the messages was just he really
• 19:14
  led the conversation. It stood out.
• 19:16
  And the humor? Mommy needs a daddy to tell her
• 19:18
  what to do sometimes. Oh my gosh.
• 19:21
  Guilty, guilty, guilty. I liked it, yeah.
• 19:25
  I get it. Like there are times where I
• 19:27
  look at my husband and be like, I don't want to tell you what to
• 19:29
  make for dinner or like, or I don't want to make the decision
• 19:33
  on what to make for dinner. So tell me what you want so I
• 19:36
  can just fucking make it. It's a form for me of like, I
• 19:40
  don't want to make decision. You handle it.
• 19:43
  I don't think you understand the Dom energy you just brought to
• 19:46
  this conversation though. Oh, really?
• 19:49
  Like I don't want to like decide what we're having to dinner.
• 19:52
  What do you want? That was very dominant energy,
• 19:55
  which is the same energy you bring to our morning calls.
• 19:59
  Where are we on this? I know I'm scared to get on
• 20:03
  calls with you sometimes if I haven't done my work.
• 20:06
  But if I've done my work, I know you're going to be very
• 20:09
  complimentary praise. I love it.
• 20:13
  So we have established a six week.
• 20:16
  Date I have one more thing that I really liked about him On this
• 20:19
  date. He listened to episode 1 of the
• 20:21
  podcast before coming on the date.
• 20:25
  I know. How did that make you feel?
• 20:29
  Well, he mentioned listening to the podcast and I just stopped
• 20:32
  dead in my tracks. I said what episode, right?
• 20:34
  Because I don't want someone knowing about the time I let a
• 20:37
  stranger inject me with B12, right?
• 20:40
  I'm like, OK, you know too much and you still showed up.
• 20:43
  There might be something wrong with you.
• 20:45
  Something was wrong with you. And he said, he said just
• 20:49
  episode 1. I thought I'd get to know you in
• 20:51
  person. I was, I, yes, it was like a
• 20:53
  siren. I was like OK.
• 20:55
  And I continued walking. At which point I'm like, did he
• 20:58
  go back and listen to more? Because I would be wondering
• 21:00
  what is wrong with it now. You just told him to go listen.
• 21:03
  I. Think did I right?
• 21:04
  But I love that he took an interest and he said not
• 21:07
  everybody puts so much information about their job on
• 21:10
  their profile. And when you did, of course I
• 21:13
  went and looked it up and I just thought I could get down with
• 21:16
  that so. But you know what I mean?
• 21:18
  If anything, it's a good calling card for the rest of the people
• 21:21
  that are out there. I mean, we like you target guys,
• 21:24
  but there may be other people out there who knows, OK, so
• 21:27
  we're keeping them on the roster.
• 21:28
  So my roster though is really just early stage dating.
• 21:32
  There has not been any intimacy yet with anyone because I am
• 21:36
  stage and rostering. We're interviewing for the
• 21:39
  roster. Interviewing.
• 21:40
  Oh, that's a whole other episode.
• 21:42
  Yeah. Like figuring out what that
• 21:44
  looks like. Like when do you get intimate
• 21:47
  with your potential partner you know?
• 21:50
  You'll be the first to know Brenda.
• 21:52
  Monday. Wednesday morning, who knows,
• 21:55
  I'll be like so last night and I'll let.
• 21:58
  Wait, let me make sure we record.
• 22:00
  And we're running, yeah. So I don't know.
• 22:03
  He just took an interest and I have a huge interest in his life
• 22:06
  and it's been going well so far. Over to.
• 22:09
  Exciting. I am so here for it.
• 22:12
  The question is, can we survive six weeks of not seeing each
• 22:16
  other? I don't know, there's some
• 22:18
  people that can have fun sexting for quite some time, I mean.
• 22:24
  Maybe that will be us, but I'm even wondering 123456 What?
• 22:30
  It's 6 1/2 weeks. That's how long it is between
• 22:33
  dates. Nearly seven weeks.
• 22:35
  Like Meghan Markle and like Harry did not see each other for
• 22:40
  six months and still like. Made it happen.
• 22:43
  I'm just saying. You are just saying.
• 22:46
  They were literally an ocean apart.
• 22:48
  Just just putting it out there. OK, OK, neither of us are
• 22:52
  celebrities so maybe that's why we only have to wait 6 1/2
• 22:55
  weeks. We're not an ocean apart.
• 22:58
  So that is just one date in depth of one story, OK.
• 23:04
  More dates, More dates. How many more can I fit in?
• 23:08
  So we'll see. But hold on.
• 23:10
  I did get a couple of dating questions in general and I'm
• 23:13
  wondering. Yeah, Well, just so you know, I
• 23:15
  do the Monday ask me anything. I'm going to look at some of
• 23:18
  those questions and we'll see what I can answer now and then.
• 23:21
  People. OK question.
• 23:23
  Any recommendations for kinky dating apart from Fetlife, which
• 23:28
  isn't even a dating app. So you have two options for
• 23:31
  kinky dating. You have meet Kingsters and you
• 23:33
  get 50% off your first month of premium with kingsters if you
• 23:36
  use the link. So that's number one if you're
• 23:40
  super focused on kinky dating. The other one is BD app, BEED EE
• 23:46
  app, and that one's based on the big DSM test.org that matches
• 23:52
  you based on how you answer a quiz.
• 23:54
  And that one's really cool too. I've gone on a date from that
• 23:57
  app. Or you can just put subtle hints
• 24:00
  into other profiles and that's what I'm doing on Hinge.
• 24:03
  So like this is target guys from Hinge.
• 24:05
  So, OK, So what are some of the ways that you indicate on your
• 24:09
  apps? So like, we already know you
• 24:12
  love to be spanked so. My favorite emojis are the ping
• 24:15
  pong paddle and the P. And the obvious that's so
• 24:18
  obvious. Like the black heart chains
• 24:23
  rope. There's rope emoji.
• 24:25
  All of those are obvious ones for kink and BDSM, Yeah.
• 24:30
  OK, OK. Good to know.
• 24:31
  OK, so I got a lot of questions about the dating apps that I'm
• 24:35
  using to meet all these people and it's a it's a remix of these
• 24:37
  kinky dating apps and regular ones like Tinder and hinge.
• 24:41
  OK, someone's asking, is dating in your 40s impossible this day
• 24:44
  and age? Saw that.
• 24:45
  I would say absolutely not. If you can toggle your age range
• 24:49
  that you're looking for on the apps and maybe you have to pay
• 24:51
  so that you can filter more appropriately for what you're
• 24:54
  looking for, but it's not impossible.
• 24:56
  There are people out there. I have clients of all ages
• 24:59
  dating and meeting people right now.
• 25:01
  So there are many options and I don't think dating is not dead
• 25:04
  at any age. I'm helping someone who's 76
• 25:09
  create their dating profile right now so.
• 25:11
  OK. Out there, Yeah, I think that
• 25:14
  answers a lot of things, but did you see any other questions?
• 25:16
  Hold on. Discreet way to show if you're a
• 25:20
  top or bottom. OK, like here's what I used to
• 25:23
  put back in the day. It's not on my end right now,
• 25:26
  but looking for the S to my D or looking for the D to my S.
• 25:31
  Oh, there's a literal emoji that says top.
• 25:36
  OK, so you can just say looking for a top or I am a top, just
• 25:40
  say I'm A and then insert the top emoji.
• 25:42
  OK, excellent. Brenda, thank you so much for
• 25:45
  joining me. I've had a ton of fun chatting
• 25:47
  with you and I don't think this will be our last conversation
• 25:49
  about my dating life. Yay.
• 25:53
  I'm totally in it from a woman who's been married for 20 years.
• 25:56
  Lady, I'm living it through you. I'm so glad you can.
• 26:00
  I want all The Dirty details. Yeah, enjoy all of this, and you
• 26:04
  ask the best questions because I don't even think, like, is it
• 26:07
  normal? I don't know.
• 26:08
  We'll find, like, let me go on a few more dates.
• 26:10
  Yeah. So now we're trying to line up
• 26:12
  some 2nd and 3rd dates with people.
• 26:15
