Latest / Delulu with Ryan Lu / How I Manifested My Ex Back + Tarot & ASMR Affirmations | Delulu After Dark
Transcript
- 0:00This is the man that I manifested back, I wrote in my
- 0:02journal. I was like, I was like, I was
- 0:04like, I hear his heart beating. It's like our hearts are
- 0:07synchronized. I hear my heart beating too.
- 0:12God, I want to evaporate. Hi Delulu's and welcome back to
- 0:30Delulu. We have a very special episode
- 0:32for you today. It is just me and this is
- 0:34actually going to be the first of four bonus episodes that
- 0:36we're doing in between season 1 leading into season 2.
- 0:40So we just wrapped season 1 of Delulu, which was Delulu Summer,
- 0:43and season 2 is going to be just as exciting but with more fun
- 0:46guests and new things. But season 2 is going to be a
- 0:50little darker, greater edgier because it is me officially
- 0:53entering my villain era. I have been Moody and I decided
- 0:56to just fully embrace it now. And that's what season is going
- 0:59to be. And Season 2 is we're doing a
- 1:03drum roll here to Lulu after dark and we're going to make the
- 1:11set red because this is an evil season.
- 1:15It is me stepping into this evil era.
- 1:17And I hope you love it because I think it's going to be a lot
- 1:19more fun. And I think it's going to be a
- 1:20little unfiltered, chaotic, unhinged, but it's still the
- 1:23same show that you love. In honor of Delulu After Dark
- 1:26and me officially embracing my villain era, I wanted to give
- 1:29you one of my most villainous stories.
- 1:31I want to preface the story by saying I am completely wrong
- 1:34here. I acknowledge that I know I'm
- 1:36wrong for this and you guys do not need to look at me like a
- 1:39victim or anything because I shouldn't have done this.
- 1:41And I'm going to be sharing with you guys.
- 1:43I've never talked about this publicly before.
- 1:45So you guys got the exclusive Lulu.
- 1:47But this is the lore behind my infamous take that I think all
- 1:52Gemini men are cheaters. And I have been saying this in
- 1:56pretty much every episode and I stand on it and I still stand on
- 1:59it. But there's a reason for that.
- 2:01I did not just decide that one day.
- 2:03I've had an experience, and I am the source of that finding that
- 2:08Gemini men are cheaters. And I think the most fucked up
- 2:10part about the story is that I wasn't even the one cheated on
- 2:14by a Gemini man. I was actually the person that a
- 2:19Gemini man cheated on their girlfriend with, and that is so
- 2:25cringy to say because I definitely regret that.
- 2:27But either way, that's kind of what happened there.
- 2:30And yeah, I'm the bad guy, whatever, but let's get into it.
- 2:34So this was a couple years ago for context, Lulu, it was a long
- 2:38time ago. I'm a different person now.
- 2:40I'm completely evolved, still villains, still evil.
- 2:42I don't think I would do this again.
- 2:43Hopefully I don't ever do this again, but I was young and I was
- 2:47kind of just dumb and I don't know, I, I wanted what I wanted,
- 2:50which was really bad of me. But for context, Lulu, I was
- 2:54best friends with this girl. We were friends for years and I
- 2:57was super close to her and I was super close to her family and
- 3:01let's name this girl Delilah Delulu Delilah and we're
- 3:05besties, besties, besties, besties.
- 3:07But I was pretty much family to her family too.
- 3:09I spent every holiday with them. Her family really took me in and
- 3:13we were very, very, very close. And subsequently, I was close to
- 3:17her entire family, including her little sister who were naming
- 3:22Lily Little Delulu Lily, who had a boyfriend.
- 3:27So I was over at their house one day and I actually spent the
- 3:29entire holiday season with them. And this was my last holiday
- 3:32season with them, obviously, but I spent this entire holiday
- 3:35season with them. And Lily comes home one day with
- 3:38her new boyfriend and I actually don't think anything of it.
- 3:41He's tall, he's cute, but I don't really pay too much
- 3:44attention to him. I'm minding my business.
- 3:46I'm there for my friend Delilah, not necessarily for Lily or the
- 3:50family or anything. We're just hanging out.
- 3:51So I see him at their house throughout the entire December,
- 3:55throughout the entire holiday season, and it was kind of
- 3:57normal. He was just there, just another
- 3:59part of the family at that point.
- 4:01After Christmas, I was at their house, we're hanging out and
- 4:04Lily and her boyfriend get into this massive, massive, massive
- 4:07fight. Literally, I'm in Delilah's room
- 4:09and I hear them screaming at each other.
- 4:11It's chaotic, they're going at it, etcetera.
- 4:14And I'm quite, really like they good, like what is happening out
- 4:17there? Like I was scared for.
- 4:18I was like concerned. Not that it was like I thought
- 4:20he was going to like do anything terrible, but I was just like,
- 4:22they're fighting. Like I hear them fighting.
- 4:24I hear them arguing. And yeah, she had to go.
- 4:27She kicked him out, but he couldn't drive.
- 4:30He didn't have a car at the time.
- 4:31So mind you, he was 21. He just didn't have a car.
- 4:33But I offered to drive him home because I was leaving anyways.
- 4:35And I was like, OK, I could take you home.
- 4:37You live like 5 minutes away from this house, No big deal.
- 4:41He gets in my car and as I start driving him home, he actually
- 4:44starts like kind of trauma dumping on me and telling me
- 4:46about his life story, things that are going on in his life,
- 4:49how he's feeling, what's going on with Lily.
- 4:51And I'm just listening to the boy talk and I'm like oh wow.
- 4:54He's like really getting deep with me right now and I end up
- 4:57getting vulnerable with him too. I tell him my own little secrets
- 4:59and we're just sharing a lot with each other right now.
- 5:02And I drive him to his apartment.
- 5:03Like I said, it's 5 minutes away from this house and we just sit
- 5:06in front of his apartment in my car talking to each other until
- 5:09like the sun rose. So we spent the entire night
- 5:11talking pretty much. Told me his entire life story.
- 5:14It was sad, it was emotional, told me really personal deep
- 5:16things. We were both connecting and I
- 5:18remember thinking while he was telling me all of this and being
- 5:22vulnerable with me that I was like, is he like maybe gay or
- 5:26something? Or like a little queer or
- 5:27something? Because I just felt like it was
- 5:29way too intimate for everything he was telling me.
- 5:31And immediately, like essentially the first time we've
- 5:33ever really spoken at that point.
- 5:35So we're in the car and we're talking about everything.
- 5:37And I was getting a little suspicious of him, that he might
- 5:39be like, I don't know, a little free, whatever.
- 5:41But I really didn't think too much about it.
- 5:43And I went home, Sun came up, I went home, and that was that.
- 5:48The next day, we're both back at the house.
- 5:50He and Lily had made-up and I pretended to want to help
- 5:55Delilah put up a shelf. Some man shit that I would never
- 5:59do, by the way. But I was like, oh, Delilah, let
- 6:01me help you put up the shelf. Why not?
- 6:04But really my intention was I wanted to see him again.
- 6:06And I felt like the only way to see him again was if I was at
- 6:08the house and that he would be there And lo and behold, he was
- 6:11there. I go over to Delilah's house and
- 6:14I'm hoping to put up this bookshelf, which I'm really not,
- 6:16but like, I'm like doing the motions or whatever.
- 6:19And she actually pulls me aside and talks to me.
- 6:22And she was like, hey, Lily thinks that her boyfriend might
- 6:26be a little gay and he she thinks that you 2 have been
- 6:29flirting with each other and it's making her really
- 6:31uncomfortable. And mind you, at this time, we
- 6:34never even interacted in front of them at all.
- 6:37Yes, he was around the house, and he would make comments to me
- 6:39every now and then, but we never really spoke.
- 6:41So I don't even know where that was coming from.
- 6:43But it was a little validating to me because I was like, I also
- 6:46think that he's a little gay, right?
- 6:48So now there's some sort of palpable energy that people are
- 6:50noticing and people are pointing it out.
- 6:52And I feel like that's not something that should be
- 6:54ignored. So I was like, OK, there's like
- 6:55an apparent chemistry here. And I was like, OK, so I was
- 6:58like, I don't know what you're talking about, girl.
- 7:00If I'm being completely honest with you, I barely talk to him.
- 7:02He's just there. He's just a guy, no big deal.
- 7:05And she was like, OK, just like, you know, she's a little
- 7:07concerned. It makes her uncomfortable.
- 7:08Just keep that in mind. I was like, hey, no big deal.
- 7:10And during this, we're also kind of Dming on the low, low on
- 7:13Instagram. And he was like, let's get out
- 7:15of here, let's leave again, right?
- 7:17We were never able to leave together that night.
- 7:19I don't know, the circumstances were super hard or maybe they
- 7:22were catching on to us or something.
- 7:23So we both end up leaving separately end of that day.
- 7:27The next day comes around, we're at the house again.
- 7:30I pretty much spend every day with his family at this time of
- 7:32my life. I'm spending every day with his
- 7:33family. We're at the house again, and
- 7:35now Lily and Delilah both talk to me and they're like, hey, you
- 7:41cannot be around Lily's boyfriend.
- 7:43That's a rule we're setting. You can't be around Lily's
- 7:45boyfriend. We think something's going on
- 7:47between y'all and you can't be around him.
- 7:49And I was like, OK, I guess that's that.
- 7:51Like, sure, I won't do it again. We're kind of messaging on the
- 7:53Lolo. We're talking, and he was at the
- 7:55house again. So they keep us in separate
- 7:57rooms because we cannot be near each other, I guess, and they're
- 8:00doing their best to keep us apart.
- 8:02But we devised this little scheme, a little plan to find
- 8:04each other and see each other and leave this house.
- 8:07So we decided that he was going to leave early.
- 8:09He was going to walk home, and then 10 minutes later I would
- 8:12leave and I'll just pick him up and we would hang out again.
- 8:15And that's exactly what we did. He leaves, I wait 10 minutes,
- 8:18minutes, I go find him, I pick him up and we just hang out and
- 8:21talk in my car for hours again and really getting to know each
- 8:24other. We're spending a lot of time
- 8:24together, whatever. At this point, every morning
- 8:28he's like saying good morning to me.
- 8:29He's messaging me, he's calling me everyday we're FaceTime,
- 8:31we're spending hours on the phone together and I would even
- 8:33ask him like, shouldn't he be talking to Lily, your
- 8:35girlfriend, or shouldn't he be hanging out with your
- 8:36girlfriend? He's like, no, I want to do
- 8:38that. I want to talk to you.
- 8:38He's like, OK, cool. So he's spending all this time
- 8:40with me and now I'm like, well, I want to I want to start seeing
- 8:44him, but I need like an excuse to see him about making it
- 8:46obvious that something might be happening.
- 8:48Because honestly, I knew what I was doing was bad.
- 8:50I knew at this point that he's probably emotionally cheating on
- 8:52Lily and I also knew that I probably should stay away from
- 8:54him, but I just really couldn't. So I think about like an excuse
- 8:59to be able to see him. And my friend Cameron at the
- 9:01time was redoing his bedroom and he was painting it yellow and
- 9:07that's a man shit again. And we're 2 little F slurs.
- 9:10So I was like, there's really no need for either of us to be
- 9:12painting this bedroom. Mind you, we did try and it was
- 9:14actually really, really bad and we were not good at it.
- 9:17But I decided and I was like, you know, I'm going to ask
- 9:19Lily's boyfriend to come help paint the bedroom.
- 9:21Why not? He's a man, he could do it.
- 9:22So I asked him if he wants to. He's down, I drive and pick him
- 9:26up from work and he comes to Cameron's house to paint the
- 9:30walls yellow and he does a great job and we spend the next two to
- 9:33three days painting his bedroom together.
- 9:36And one thing about me is my love language.
- 9:39My number one thing is access service.
- 9:41If you're doing something for me, I'm very likely to like be
- 9:43super into you or like you or fall for you just because like,
- 9:46I don't know, as a Virgo, I feel like I do everything myself.
- 9:48I'm mad independent and I feel like people don't do things for
- 9:52me really. But when people do things for
- 9:54me, I really like it. I really appreciate it.
- 9:56It's like my highest love language.
- 9:58So I'm watching him paint the walls.
- 10:00I'm like, this is really nice. He's like doing this favor for
- 10:03me because he doesn't know Cameron.
- 10:04He doesn't need to do this for Cameron.
- 10:05And I feel like he's doing it for me and we're spending a lot
- 10:08of time together now. We would go to the mall and he
- 10:10would offer to buy me clothes, which is crazy because mind you,
- 10:13we were both dirt broke at this time, like both of us.
- 10:16I don't know, like if he had money to buy me anything.
- 10:18And not that I would even let him buy me anything, but he
- 10:21would offer to buy me clothes. He'd offer to buy me food,
- 10:23drinks, whatever. Like he was just being really
- 10:25boyfriendy to me, I would say. And he acted very boyfriendy
- 10:28with me when we would go out together.
- 10:30And he would actually even tell people that he was my boyfriend.
- 10:33Like he would tell the cashier at like McDonald's he's, he'd be
- 10:38like, yeah, I'm Ryan's boyfriend.
- 10:40And I'd be like, of course I'm going to overthink that and
- 10:43analyse every little like, nuance of what I could mean.
- 10:46But he would tell people that. And I know he was like joking,
- 10:49but like, at this point I'm like really liking this guy.
- 10:51I'm like getting deeper feelings for him.
- 10:53So I'm like, fuck, like now he's seeing all the shit I like to
- 10:55hear. And so we are talking on the
- 10:59phone pretty much every night. We're getting really close.
- 11:00We finished painting Cameron's bedroom.
- 11:02Projects done. I don't know what to do anymore.
- 11:05So I'm like I need to create another project for him so I can
- 11:07keep seeing him. So I go out and I buy black
- 11:10picture frames and I tell him I was like hey can you help me
- 11:13paint these picture frames gold because gold is my favorite
- 11:15color. And he was down of course.
- 11:17So new project started and now he comes to my house and at the
- 11:22time my parents really didn't let me have anyone come over.
- 11:24They still really don't let me have anyone come over.
- 11:26I'm in an apartment now, so anyone can come over now, don't
- 11:28come over. But basically he would come over
- 11:31and we would sit on my bedroom floor and we would paint the
- 11:34picture frames. I would do it horribly because
- 11:37I'm not good at it, but he did it so well and it came out
- 11:40really good. And I would just watch him paint
- 11:42the picture frames and I was like, OK, fuck.
- 11:44I think I'm like falling for him.
- 11:45I think this is like me really falling for him now.
- 11:48And we would spend the next couple days painting these
- 11:50picture frames just on my bedroom floor.
- 11:52I had a bunch of them and it would take a long time to paint
- 11:54each of them. And while the paint was drying,
- 11:56we would do little activities in between.
- 11:58So one of them was he wanted to teach me how to skateboard,
- 12:01which I suspect was just a way to like, I don't know, touch me
- 12:05or like, have a little moment with me or be intimate with me
- 12:07or whatever. And a fucking course, I was down
- 12:10South, picture my ass on a skateboard and I'm falling
- 12:14everywhere. But now I have like, this tall,
- 12:16like, you know, buff guy, like catching me and holding me and
- 12:19like, holding my hand and like guiding me on the skateboard.
- 12:21It's cute as fuck. And I remember we were doing it
- 12:23outside my house and the sun would be setting in.
- 12:26The sky was beautiful. And I was just like, wow, I feel
- 12:28like I'm in a fucking movie right now, which is crazy.
- 12:31And I was just feeling all types of ways.
- 12:32And yeah, I was just really, really liking him.
- 12:35We'd go back, paint the picture frames.
- 12:37Who played me his music? I liked his music.
- 12:39And he's just like a sad little Moody boy or whatever.
- 12:42And I kind of like that too because I was like, damn, he's
- 12:44so artsy and deep, blah, blah, whatever.
- 12:46And he would talk about his problems with his girlfriend,
- 12:48and then his girlfriend would call when we're hanging out and
- 12:50I'd be like, you should answer. And he's like, no, I don't want
- 12:52to. I want to, like, hang out with
- 12:53you. And I'm like, OK.
- 12:54And then he'd be like, I cancelled a date with her so I
- 12:56can be with you tonight. And I'm like, damn, this is like
- 12:58kind of getting a little intensity, right?
- 13:00So I'm like, OK, that's fine. I don't know what's happening.
- 13:03I'm just journaling about everything.
- 13:04I'm confused as fuck. And that's kind of where we
- 13:07were. I remember at one point when we
- 13:09were painting the picture frames, I was like, let me go
- 13:11grab some food from the kitchen, right?
- 13:12We've been doing it for a couple hours.
- 13:14So I tell him, do not leave my bedroom.
- 13:16Stay right here. My parents cannot see you.
- 13:19They cannot even know that you're in the house.
- 13:21Do not leave this bedroom. He's like, got it.
- 13:23I'll stay right here. I'm going to paint the fucking
- 13:25picture frames. I'm like, OK, slay.
- 13:26So it goes to the kitchen. I'm like, you know, rummaging
- 13:30through shit to find food for him.
- 13:32And I hear him introduce himself to my dad and he's like, hi, I'm
- 13:35blah, blah, blah. And I'm like mortified.
- 13:37I turn around and he's just fucking right there in the
- 13:39kitchen with my dad. And my dad's acting mad cool
- 13:42about it. I don't think he reacted that
- 13:45any type of way, to be honest. And I was like, Oh my God, I'm
- 13:47fucking horrified right now, 'cause like, not only did I have
- 13:49like a boy over at the house, but I had someone at the house
- 13:51and I really was not allowed to have anyone over, right?
- 13:54So I'm like, what the fuck? And obviously he's dumb for
- 13:57that, but I was also dumb 'cause I found it really endearing and
- 14:00was like, that's cute. Like he just like introduced
- 14:03himself to my dad, Like, oh, my boyfriend, my dad, like
- 14:05whatever. I'm like, like Dulu, whatever,
- 14:07Dulu derogatory, so whatever. And yeah, I was kind of
- 14:11mortified about that. But also I made a promise to
- 14:12myself, in fact Lulu, that I wouldn't come out to my parents
- 14:15until I had a boyfriend. So I was like, well, he just
- 14:18introduced himself to my dad. That's like him being my
- 14:21boyfriend, right? So something like that,
- 14:22whatever. We go back to my room and we eat
- 14:24this like makeshift little dinner with whatever snacks I
- 14:27found. And we're sitting on my bed
- 14:28eating it together like looking at each other.
- 14:29And we're just like damn we real intimate TBH.
- 14:33So it goes on like that. We continue painting the picture
- 14:36frames again the next day and this time in between the picture
- 14:40frames trying instead of teaching me to skateboard, we
- 14:42decide to watch a movie. We watch a scary movie together
- 14:44and we're both laying in my bed like watching this movie and
- 14:47it's pretty intimate. We're essentially cuddling.
- 14:49I remember thinking very clearly, like I can hear his
- 14:52heart beating because my head was on his chest.
- 14:54And this is so cringe. And I'm going to actually close
- 14:57my eyes when I say this because Brett's right there and I can't
- 14:59look at him during this one, but I would be like, I wrote to my
- 15:02journal. I was like, I was like, I was
- 15:05like, I hear his heart beating. It's like our hearts are
- 15:08synchronized. I hear my heart beating too.
- 15:13God, I want to evaporate. I hate that I admitted that I
- 15:15did write that in my journal. I just reread all my journal
- 15:18entries and I remember writing. I remember reading that and I
- 15:21was like, damn you fucking lover girl ass motherfucker.
- 15:24Really. I mean, low key, that was a bar,
- 15:28so I really shouldn't be embarrassed or ashamed of it to
- 15:30be honest. But can I have a moment, please?
- 15:44We're laying there together, I'm hearing his heartbeat, whatever.
- 15:47I'm in my feelings about it. And I don't know why, but he was
- 15:50going through my phone for some reason and I was completely fond
- 15:52of, I was watching him go through my phone, but he was
- 15:53like scrolling through my camera roll and he found a bunch of
- 15:56pictures of himself that I had saved.
- 15:58So he would send me like pictures of him at work or
- 15:59whatever and I would screenshot it and save it.
- 16:02And so he saw those pictures and he literally just asked me point
- 16:05blank, period. He was like, do you like me?
- 16:08And I was like fuck because this is over.
- 16:13Like he caught me like dead ass because I was trying to keep my
- 16:16feelings on the lolo to be honest.
- 16:17I was trying to give it bestie vibes or whatever even though it
- 16:19was definitely more than bestie vibes.
- 16:21But yeah he caught me and I was like well fantasy over it's
- 16:25done. Like I don't know what to say.
- 16:27I decided I had two options. I could lie to him and hopefully
- 16:31he will believe me or I could just come clean and see what
- 16:35happens. And I just decided that at this
- 16:37point, I believed he knew me way too well to know when I was
- 16:40lying or not. So I decided just to come clean.
- 16:42And I told him, yeah, I like you.
- 16:45And he very softly rejected me. He was like, Ryan, you know, I'm
- 16:52straight. And I was like, yeah, get the
- 16:57hell out of my room because this is super awkward Taco now.
- 17:00So he tells me that he rejects me.
- 17:03I'm embarrassed as fuck. I'm genuinely embarrassed as
- 17:05fuck. I'm like the fool Lulu, for
- 17:07reals. And because like, we're like up
- 17:10on each other right now. I was like, I, and now you're
- 17:12telling me you're straight, Whatever, I'm confused to sell.
- 17:15I don't even know what to do about this.
- 17:16So I tell him I was like, we got to go.
- 17:17We can't be here. We really can't be here.
- 17:19I know we're about to have a long conversation about this and
- 17:21I don't think we should do it in my childhood bedroom with my
- 17:23parents in the room next to us, right?
- 17:25So I take him to my car and I drive him to a Target parking
- 17:30lot. Target's already closed at this
- 17:31time, so it's completely empty. And we just sit in the Target
- 17:34parking lot and we talk and I just tell him how I'm feeling
- 17:38and he talks to me and he's being really soft and
- 17:41reassuring. But like, obviously he can't be
- 17:43what I wanted him to be. So it was kind of devastating.
- 17:45And I was like, let me go. Like let me just let me, please
- 17:49let me go. Like honestly, I can't have this
- 17:50conversation. If you don't like me or you tell
- 17:52me, tell me that you can't, then I don't even want to like
- 17:55entertain this. And I was being dramatic as fuck
- 17:58in this parking lot. So I would like get out a car
- 18:02and run and I would run and mind you, this is my own fucking car.
- 18:06So I don't know where the hell I thought I was going and leaving
- 18:09my car in the Target parking lot.
- 18:10But I would just take off and he would chase after me and pick me
- 18:14up, throw me over his shoulder like little rag doll and put me
- 18:17back in the car. And mind you, this is like a
- 18:19tall man like this is like a big man.
- 18:20He's like buff whatever. And like I'm just like a little
- 18:22skinny mini girl. So he would put me back in the
- 18:25car and we would start talking again.
- 18:27And I don't know, it's just like kind of a tense and a lot
- 18:30somewhere in that conversation when we're talking, I was kind
- 18:33of realizing that I was like, you know what?
- 18:34I feel like there's still something here.
- 18:36And I feel like he's not necessarily just rejecting me.
- 18:38And I don't know, it becomes midnight and the Target parking
- 18:43lot lights all turn off. We're in the dark now.
- 18:46It's just us sitting in the car in the dark, completely alone in
- 18:49this Target parking lot. And I feel like we're having an
- 18:52intimate moment. I feel like it's being very
- 18:54vulnerable. I feel like we're being really
- 18:55honest with each other. And I just remember thinking, if
- 18:58I don't do this right now, I'm going to regret it for the rest
- 19:00of my life because I just need to know.
- 19:02So I leaned over and I kissed him.
- 19:05There's just like a Peck on the lips.
- 19:07He did not kiss me back. And he told me he was like,
- 19:11Ryan, I'm straight. So another, another straight
- 19:16admission or whatever. And I'm like, OK can I die?
- 19:21So I'm sitting there like this is really awkward and
- 19:24uncomfortable and I'm having a really bad night.
- 19:26But I also decided that I really do owe it to myself to find out
- 19:29if there really is something there.
- 19:30Cuz I feel like at this point I've had a lot of different like
- 19:33situations or like whatever things with people and I never
- 19:37felt any type of way about any of them.
- 19:39I'm very used to being chased and adored and I love that.
- 19:42But with him I felt like it was a different kind of game cuz
- 19:45like he wasn't necessarily chasing me and I never felt
- 19:48anything with any of the guys before but I felt like I felt a
- 19:51type of way about him. So I was like, I just need to
- 19:53confirm if this feeling is real, if I made it up, if I'm dilulu,
- 19:56derogatory, whatever it is. So I just straight up ask him
- 20:00like hey, I just want to see if I feel anything.
- 20:03Could we kiss? He had to justify kissing me and
- 20:06honestly it was more for him than me because I was always
- 20:08down. But we kiss and literally my
- 20:10mind goes blank and I think I'm a thinker.
- 20:16So I'm thinking and I overthink, but when we're kissing, my mind
- 20:20went blank. I felt electricity, sparks.
- 20:23I might have kicked my feet up a little bit.
- 20:25Not gonna lie. We're in a car.
- 20:30I did not kick my feet up, but basically I did feel every type
- 20:33of way. And this is a long kiss y'all.
- 20:35Like this motherfucker was on me for a minute.
- 20:37I'm not going to lie, I don't want to say we're making out,
- 20:39but it felt like a very romantic, like intense,
- 20:41passionate, intimate kiss. And we're kissing for a minute.
- 20:44And when we finished kissing, I realized that I completely
- 20:48blacked out. I quite literally blacked out.
- 20:51Like nothing mattered in that moment except like us like
- 20:54kissing. It was like kind of poetic, but
- 20:58basically that's what happened. And I tell him I was like, I'm
- 21:02so sorry, can we kiss again? Because I didn't register any of
- 21:05that. And I really just want to know.
- 21:06I just really want to know if I feel the type of way, which
- 21:09obviously I felt the type of way.
- 21:11And he actually agrees to kissing me again at this point.
- 21:14So again, if we're keeping track, the kiss counter, we're
- 21:16at 3 kisses now, three kisses. So we kiss again.
- 21:21I still feel the same type of way.
- 21:22But this time I'm very like aware, like I'm conscience now
- 21:26I'm thinking about it. And I'm like, yeah, this is it.
- 21:29I was like, I think, I think this changed the entire game.
- 21:32I think this changes the entire discourse of the situation and
- 21:35what's happening here. And after this kiss, another
- 21:39long kiss, might I add, he tells me that I confirmed that he's
- 21:45straight because he did not feel anything from that kiss.
- 21:48And I'm just Boo, Boo the damn clown at this point because I'm
- 21:52like, damn, I'm really out here clowning myself.
- 21:55Like I really was like trying to be a hopeful girl about this,
- 21:58believing in love and shit. And he was just rejecting me.
- 22:03And to be honest, maybe it's my karma because I shouldn't have
- 22:05done this with him and I shouldn't have done this to
- 22:08Delilah's family and Delilah's little sister.
- 22:11I know. So maybe that was my karma.
- 22:14He lets me down. And at this point, I do actually
- 22:18give up like I'm reality Lulu now.
- 22:22I drive him back to his apartment and as he was leaving,
- 22:26I tell myself I'm not going to see him again.
- 22:28I'm going to let go of this man. I'm going to give up on this and
- 22:30I'm going to move on with my life.
- 22:32But as he was getting in my car and saying goodbye to me and he
- 22:34hugged me and like my face was in his neck.
- 22:37I just was like, I lost all sense.
- 22:41And I was like, please, can I see you again?
- 22:44Like, can we please keep hanging out?
- 22:45Like, I don't want this to be over.
- 22:46And he was like, I'll see you tomorrow.
- 22:47We'll keep painting your picture frames and we'll paint the
- 22:50canvases that you got. Because I also got canvases
- 22:52because I decided that painting was our thing.
- 22:54So I got canvases so we could paint them together.
- 22:56And he was like, I'll see you tomorrow.
- 22:57We'll, we'll keep painting everything.
- 22:59We'll be like, fine. I was like, OK, promise.
- 23:00And he was like, promise. I was like, OK.
- 23:03And then I never saw the motherfucker ever again for the
- 23:06rest of my life. Never saw him again since he
- 23:09left that night. He messaged me the next morning
- 23:12and he said, hey, Ryan, I can't do this.
- 23:14Like whatever he does. Another rejection.
- 23:17And I was just like, OK, that's that.
- 23:20So that was pretty much that. Mind you, this entire saga
- 23:24happened over the course of nine days, so it was all very, very,
- 23:27very quick. I was devastated.
- 23:29It took me a really long time to get over this person and for a
- 23:32while even years later, I was like actively trying to manifest
- 23:35him. But if you watch the first
- 23:36episode, this is the man that I manifested back.
- 23:39He did eventually come back and this is at the time when my
- 23:41TikTok was blowing up and things were changing for me.
- 23:43I was getting to manifestation but it took me a really really
- 23:45long time to get over him, which is crazy.
- 23:47But by the time he did manifest back, I was over him.
- 23:50I don't want to hear from him. I don't want to do anything with
- 23:52him. My life was completely
- 23:53different. But he came back and he messaged
- 23:55me and he was like hey, can we please talk?
- 23:57I'm confused. And I would think we should talk
- 24:00about what happened, which I think he's referring to that
- 24:02night in the Target parking lot, right.
- 24:04So I wasn't having it. I was actually kind of cruel and
- 24:07cold about it. And I was like, you had a chance
- 24:08to talk to me then and you didn't.
- 24:10So I don't want to talk anymore. And I just shut him down
- 24:13completely shut him down, didn't let let him speak, didn't hear
- 24:16him out, none of that. And I think he blocked me.
- 24:20Let me rephrase that. He did block me.
- 24:23And yeah, we haven't spoken since.
- 24:25I don't really feel the type of way about him now, but I do
- 24:27regret not letting him speak because I'm just curious.
- 24:30Like, what would he have said? Like, would he have told me that
- 24:33he's realizing he might be gay or something, or that he likes
- 24:36me or like, I don't know. I just don't know what he would
- 24:38have said. So I feel like I should have
- 24:40just heard him out at least foreclosure.
- 24:42But I really refused it. And that's what happened.
- 24:45And to be honest, I didn't have a lot of guidance at the time.
- 24:48I was dealing with all of it by myself essentially because I was
- 24:51very private and I didn't know who to talk to about it.
- 24:54I didn't really get any advice and I kept to myself.
- 24:57I just wrote it on my journal. But if it was today and I was in
- 25:00that situation, I would definitely want advice for it,
- 25:03which is what you're going to get right now because we're
- 25:05going to do WW80 GD. What would a delulu girl do?
- 25:09Where you give me your questions, concerns, problems,
- 25:11situations, and I give you my delulu advice.
- 25:15My healed, evolved not home wrecking advice there.
- 25:18There are some home wrecking allegations in the studio today,
- 25:20might I add, and I don't take kindly to it, but we're going to
- 25:24give you some good old fashioned delulu advice.
- 25:29Our first WWADD question comes from an anonymous bestie who is
- 25:33wondering, what do you do if your ex keeps hitting you up and
- 25:37you keep coming over? I guess this is a very nuanced
- 25:41question and my general answer is just like don't do it.
- 25:45Honestly, I just feel like at this point, like yes, it's easy
- 25:49or whatever, but the same time I think you still feel type of way
- 25:51about them. I feel like it could be really
- 25:52disastrous and I'm a really big fan of setting boundaries and
- 25:55just making sure you protect your heart and your peace.
- 25:58And am I saying that I wouldn't do it?
- 26:00No, I would. And I have and I've done that
- 26:02before and it just ends up being disastrous.
- 26:05I guess my advice realistically is set a boundary there and
- 26:09maybe establish that how you might be feeling communicated.
- 26:11I think that could be really effective and good.
- 26:13But honestly, if you're in a situation and you just feel
- 26:15really drawn to it, like sometimes you can just get it so
- 26:19right when it's physical, when it's critical.
- 26:21So I definitely understand, by the way, listen to so right by
- 26:25Carly Rae Jepsen because that's exactly the situation.
- 26:27But that's my advice. I would set a boundary bestie.
- 26:29Honestly, I would set a boundary.
- 26:31So we have another question here.
- 26:33Another anonymous bestie says, how do I tell them I don't want
- 26:36to be roommates anymore without ruining the friendship?
- 26:38I think not telling them would ruin the friendship.
- 26:41I think you'll end up presenting them and I think it'll create
- 26:43more problems down the line. So I think you genuinely should
- 26:46just tell them that maybe you want to explore living by
- 26:49yourself or living with someone else or you know, even maybe
- 26:53find like an excuse or say something or like you can't
- 26:57afford rent or something. I just think staying living with
- 27:00them will create resentment. And I don't think that's a good
- 27:03idea. So I think talking about it with
- 27:05them and explaining it to them or even just being clear with
- 27:08them. Like honestly, I feel like
- 27:09myself as Ryan, I'm a very direct person.
- 27:11I feel like I would just be like, yeah, you know what?
- 27:12I don't really like living with you, which honestly, now that
- 27:15I'm thinking about, it could be very harsh and maybe you
- 27:16shouldn't do that, but I would talk to them about it.
- 27:20I think so. So so you don't ruin the
- 27:21friendship if you really value the friendship.
- 27:23Some people aren't just not compatible as roommates.
- 27:25And that's completely fair, honestly.
- 27:27And I don't think they should take it personally.
- 27:29So I'll talk to them about it. Keep me updated on what they
- 27:31say. And we have a final question
- 27:34here from an anonymous bestie. Would it be weird if I went to a
- 27:38party even though my ex is going to be there?
- 27:45Brett, would that be weird? No, Brett says it would not be
- 27:51weird if you go to a party and your ex is there.
- 27:53I'm a big fan of maintaining my peace, so if I felt like a type
- 27:58of way about my ex or I didn't want to see this ex, I think I
- 28:01wouldn't go. But you want my delulu advice?
- 28:06Go hot as fuck, you do it up, look good, make them regret that
- 28:11shit. Like honestly, I don't know what
- 28:12happened between y'all, but if you want to be brave, Lulu, or
- 28:15if you want to be delulu after dark, we're gonna we're gonna
- 28:18sex it up a little bit like you should show up, make them regret
- 28:20it. I kind of like that.
- 28:21Listen to Look at me right Now by Grant Kanoki.
- 28:25That's your song for this. I would sex it up.
- 28:28Sure. Go have fun.
- 28:30Bring me. We can get into it together.
- 28:34OK, so that was our WWADGD for this week.
- 28:38And if you want to be featured in next week's WWADGD, all you
- 28:41need to do is join my passive besties community at the top of
- 28:43my page and submit your question, concerns, situation,
- 28:45or dilemma for me to potentially answer next week.
- 28:49You know what's interesting about those questions?
- 28:51Those were very Mercury retrograde ask questions.
- 28:54Honestly, Mercury retrograde is a lot of miscommunication.
- 28:57And thankfully, as of this episode airing, Mercury
- 29:01retrograde just ended. So bestie, if you were going
- 29:03through it, that's why. And you know what?
- 29:05We're having a full circle moment right now because the
- 29:07first episode of the show Mercury retrograde also ended.
- 29:11So we just went through another Mercury retrograde.
- 29:13How crazy. The Mercury retrograde is over.
- 29:16We are officially at the tail end of Leo season and moving
- 29:19into Virgo season, which is my season.
- 29:22So everyone wish me a happy birthday in the comments and
- 29:25also rate the show 5 stars as a birthday gift to me please.
- 29:30But we're entering Virgo season. You're going to be a little bit
- 29:32more organized, you're going to be more on top of your shit and
- 29:35this is the time to really get your shit together, especially
- 29:37moving into the fall. We had a great fun to Lulu
- 29:39summer, I truly mean that. But Virgo season's going to
- 29:42really just snatch you up and get you ready for this next
- 29:46chapter, and it's going to be your best chapter yet.
- 29:48But yeah, if you're going through it, that's why you went
- 29:50through a breakup during America Retrograde.
- 29:51I wouldn't worry about it. If you're dealing with issues
- 29:53during America retrograde, it's over now.
- 29:55Let's just affirm everything's getting better right now.
- 29:59And Bestie, really quickly, I want to do a one card pull to
- 30:02give you your vibe and energy. If you're listening to this
- 30:05episode, this reading is genuinely for you.
- 30:07We're going to shuffle the deck a little bit and then let's see
- 30:12what spirit and the universe need you to know right now.
- 30:15Are you nervy? Are you excited?
- 30:18Oh my God, I'm claiming this y'all.
- 30:21I pulled the nine of cups upright.
- 30:22This card is literally wish fulfillment.
- 30:24If you're listening to this right now, make a wish.
- 30:27Make a wish in your head. Comment your wish.
- 30:29Speak into existence. This is literally wish
- 30:31fulfillment. I'm going to make a wish right
- 30:32now. Oh, I know I don't want to wish
- 30:34for. It's super cringe.
- 30:36So, Brett, don't watch me. OK, I made a really embarrassing
- 30:44wish and I promise you when it comes true, I will tell you on
- 30:48the show, we're going to cut this clip and we're going to
- 30:50insert it to me telling you it came true and it is going to
- 30:53come true. Did Brett, did you make a wish?
- 30:55Mina, you make a wish, Bestie to Lulu.
- 30:59Bestie, did you make a wish? It's already yours.
- 31:02Congratulations. I'm so happy we pulled that
- 31:04card. Wow, really good vibes.
- 31:07Great vibes for season 2. And Bestie, we're going to slow
- 31:10it down a little bit. This was an exciting episode.
- 31:14We learned a lot about each other.
- 31:16Me, that I am only seemingly perfect, but not always in
- 31:20practice, and you that you're very forgiving of me and that's
- 31:24what I like about you. But we're going to end this
- 31:27episode with a little ASMR affirmations for you.
- 31:32I'm going to speak all these good things into existence for
- 31:34you to send you off so you can have an amazing week and start
- 31:38to the rest of your 2025 and or whenever you listen to this
- 31:42episode. You are a magnet to everything

- 32:15friend's bedrooms for you. Everyone loves celebrating you

- 32:23celebrate because you are just that girl.
