Why Do "Friends With Benefits" Exist? | The Mail-In
I don't have friends because I'm the kind of person who hears these morons talk and immediately writes them off 😂
It’s 2024 fuck all that BS. If a woman wants you it’ll be known
As a college football hardo who has definitely watched football on my phone many times at weddings (including putting my phone in an open bible to watch a game during the ceremony), you have to at least pretend to hide it. You can't have a group watching at a table right by the dance floor- that's shitty, go in the hallway or by the bar. I almost side with the bride here.
The fact that this woman is mostly talked about money is disgusting and shows that most women are our gold diggers
Do I want to date a man who thinks it's a red flag that I only have a few friends and a loving family? No. Do I want to date a guy who has to call a radio station to ask two strangers whether or not he should date me? Absolutely not.
Lol we luve in europe. When we go back to my family or the US, i bring stuff back from there. I brought loads of hair products back from the Dominican republic. They cost up to five times here as there. Lol.
Troy Aikman would be tight
As someone with 2 friends. Your opinion is incorrect and invalid
I disagree, there should be a timing for each woman and she should let him know. Not abbrasively, but not hinting either. Everyone should have their own limit so they don't waste their own time. That's a quick way to be dragged along for a ride imo
Haha! Matts el Rancho parking is a bitch!
Do not come
U calling everyone best friend without meaning it is a red flag
Absolutely not
I agree, 2 of my worst experiences with people (a past quote on quote friend) these people had no true friends.
This whole video is a red flag
if I get this as a first impression from a girl, I'm going to have to assume she's not interested. I may double text, but if she still doesn't answer, I'm going to have to let her be the one to text. As a man looking desperate is the worst thing you can do
When you lack accountability, you'll push it to him saying it's a him problem and never learn from it. Maybe you yourself is the problem and his ghosting is a reaction to your problematic self.
First time long time, Randy’s silly formal birthday might be the best birthday idea i’ve ever heard. Love the pod
Great appearance by Cons. Would love to hear Kate’s opinions on some of the questions.
Stuff like this just makes it a self fulfilling prophecy for people with no friends to sway away from wanting to improve since they believe that there’s no hope. There’s plenty of reasons why someone can have no friends: lack of social skills (but is willing to try), what they’d categorize as a friendship, doesn’t go outside but is dying to do so if able to find people to go with, maybe a job that is mostly remote or individual work, not involved in communities, etc. Instead of spreading hopelessness for those who don’t why don’t we try to have compassion instead. Sure there’s plenty of people with no friends who are possibly mentally ill and other sorts but there’s also good people out there who don’t have anyone, who just need some encouragement and not be categorized as a red flag. That’s just going to make them want to become a “red flag” and diminish their chances even more. Im in the situation of not having friends, and it’s my fault. I just can’t find connection with anyone but I’m trying my best to make myself more competent and valuable to those around me. I didn’t attend college and went into the trades instead. That right there diminished my chances of finding people my age to connect with since I’m around older folks all the time. I recently lost touch with my previous friends due to different life goals and the business that comes with life as well. I also struggle a little bit to hold conversations due to low self esteem coming from being boring. I hit the gym and train martial arts, and have met cool people but none that I would consider good friends. There’s plenty of reasons
I think people like these two are red flags. Self-absorbed, egotistical, clearly narcissistic and self proclaimed know-it-alls. Imagine stilling in some dungeon studio, judging people, on someone’s life without knowing anything about what happed in that persons life. Did that person have severe mental health problems? Does the person have trust issues because of some trauma they had? And social media?! Who the fu*k should give 2 💩 about social media??
How is someone not having friends a red flag???
@@MysterySeeker-xs8xd I couldn't agree more! You never know what someone's going through, and I've been friends with people with no friends; still am.
Not a red flag, but I would prefer someone who has some friends/social life outside of the relationship than someone who has zero friends.
@@tomtucker9720 That's awesome You prefer that, but just out of fun, why? Like, is there a reason you prefer that? :)
@@circustoonsjokevideos I personally had bad experiences with dating with zero friends. They tend to be super clingy, get jealous if i hung out with my friends or have something off about them, and that's pretty exhausting to deal. I think it's healthy to retain some individuality in a relationship, that means I was still able to go do my own thing occasionally without my partner being involved. I would sort of worry about me being essentially a woman's entire social world. Obvs not saying that is the case for all people without friends, I am sure some are lovely, but if I have to pick between a person with zero friends and a person with some actual friends, the latter is just more attractive to me. Not a deal breaker, but I would be cautious.
@@tomtucker9720 That's a good point, Tom! I like that! And You're right, having some individuality in the relationship is healthy, but at the same time, though I don't know You, I can tell You have some self-awareness! And I respect that! And also, I bet You're better at being Your own person! On top of all that, I'll say that for me, I'm all for finding love and having friends, but at the same time, I wonder why people want it so much: if You know what I mean? :)
How about like, you know like, girls that like, say like A LOT!!..

Braxton Hicks is former 4-star QB who went to Tech but blew out his shoulder and had to switch to wide receiver. He was already undersized, so he's an absolute weapon in the slot

Congrats Sally
Solid episode, boys 👍🏼 enjoyed this one very much.
Here is my simple tip on ghosting... Ghosting breaks Trust 😎
“Best friends” is used very loosely here…….🤔 That’s a red flag.
The idea that extremely wealthy people are the only people ones who can own a home goes against the foundation of the American dream. The person who says "it isn't a big deal" owns property and takes advantage of their tenants
Renting is the biggest rip off, your at the mercy of a greedy landlord.
Motivation: Social media convinces people that their grass isn't as green.
I'm 28 and going through that right now and keep pushing girls away after being way more successful before....idk how I happened upon such a bizarrely accurate short
Corporations be like: We will sell you overpriced food, charge you multiple fees and after all of that YOU pay our sales tax and the workers salary
How I see it, Tips are a scam to the people that are expected to pay it! Umm no fuck you money isn't just given to me! It should be up to the employer to actually FUCKIN PAY em what their worth not me having to make up the difference!
I tip everyone! Even the bums asking for handouts. I’m from LA and this is how I roll.
dumbahh
Tips are for exceptional SERVICE. take out when you pick it up is not service.. tipping the delivery guy is
Britain. No tipping. Japan. No tipping.
What is doom scrolling
Doomscrolling
My friends delete their accounts/apps. But I don't think that solves the actual problem. Which (I think) is self-discipline or mental health.
Do y’all go into debt in order to keep making this podcast?
Hahaha, but it’s not that simple. Even if I know the size of jean that she wears, shape of body also plays a huge role.
Who does this to eachother? 14 years, Mt wife and I never bought any clothes for eachother. She doesn't care what I wear.
No Thanx A men can go in a store and get 4 jeans 5 shorts 2 pair of shoes And socks and underwear and still have time to go the food court and get some food to eat under an hour. A woman would go to the store and in an hour and a half would not have but one blouse and maybe a belt if you lucky. They seriously need 3 to 4 hours just to come out with one pair of jeans and a bra. Y'all seriously have problems, them we get yelled for answering that you look good when you ask "what do you think, how do I look in this"? Never ever go shopping with a female
Cargo pockets are a necessity damn it!🤣
Such a weird take
One of the few problems I have ran into since I dropped out in high school sophomore year. Im 18 and I dont get along with my age group and I cant get along with the older croud since im young.
This kind of attitude will go great for you. Good luck at 30 + guys. 🤣
