My thoughts on dating advice · What is on Andrea Asteroid's mind?

• 0:03
  It's Andrea Asteroid, and I thought I would do something a little bit different
• 0:08
  talking about dating advice because I'm horrible at giving it. Because here's the thing
• 0:19
  in one inspired me to bring it up. It's because I'm kind of on
• 0:26
  the old school side, like reading the newspaper, so I'll read Dear Abby
• 0:34
  and she gets a letter from somebody wanting advice on what to do about her
• 0:40
  boyfriend because she's on disability and it comes into play and it's kind of a
• 0:49
  thing because that's what they live off of. He doesn't contribute, so she
• 0:57
  was wondering Abbey's advice what to do, and because she thinks that if he
• 1:07
  was to move out, he would be homeless and she doesn't like that.
• 1:14
  What should I do? If that scenario was presented to me, I would
• 1:21
  say, you were with somebody for twenty years, you probably had high hopes
• 1:26
  the relationship was gonna end up different. So you're definitely gonna need to look
• 1:34
  into counseling to process something as major as breaking up a twenty year relationship,
• 1:42
  which something I think, what kind of advice is dad tell her to break
• 1:47
  up? Well, here's why. It's because of the push why she mentioned
• 1:57
  that it was about how she didn't want him to be out on the street.
• 2:02
  That's why she decided to stay with him. And to me, yeah,
• 2:07
  you can say that that's noble and understandable, but to me, I'm
• 2:15
  just not salt at that. It sounds like more of what I would call
• 2:20
  a convenience ship, not necessarily love, or at least my definition, because
• 2:29
  to me, when you love somebody, you expect more out of them,
• 2:34
  You want things to progress. You just don't let things right out. I
• 2:38
  mean not that every couple has to get engaged within you know, six months
• 2:45
  to a year, but after a certain point it's not just blowing smoke.
• 2:50
  You really need to take that adage shit or get off the pot more seriously.
• 2:57
  But hey, that's just me. I have the tendency to be a
• 3:00
  ball breaker and have a there's no law that says that you have to be
• 3:07
  in a relationship type of mentality. But if you are going to be in
• 3:15
  a relationship and decide to date, come up with some dealbreakers, put some
• 3:24
  sort of effort into finding somebody that has similar values and goals as you have
• 3:32
  in mind. And until the next one piece and Jeck in Greece
