      So excited about the patreon!!! Unfortunately, Patreon is not accepting either my card or PayPal auto-payments, due to RBI regulations in my country. :((
      I wanna be a patreon for JOMO and will try my best to get this sorted so that I can support this pod! It's my bowl of sunshine for every Tuesday.

  • @hoot10
    @hoot10 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +45

    I can hear the fear and hurt in Eric's voice when he talks about having kids and I just want to hug him so bad. I feel the same fear of possibly losing choice and freedom for the betterment of the child, and while that does sound selfish, I understand it's because his childhood wasn't the best and he does not want to be the parent that hurts a child in the same manner that he was. The duality of wanting to reclaim your childhood, while also fearing a possibly beautiful outcome because of the possibility of "failure." I loooove these raw conversations!! Thanks to all 3 of you for being so vulnerable.

    Second video I’ve seen of y’all’s!! Came from the other video with Kira. But I just really want to thank you three for being the representation I’ve never had growing up as a young Asian girl of immigrant parents. I’ve been through some really toxic and traumatic relationships since the age of 11, up until now, 29. I’m truly taking time to be single with absolutely zero male validation for the first time EVER in my life and waiting until after I turn 30 to actively try to date. But I appreciate the vulnerability and helping me not feel alone and to not feel like something is wrong with me. I feel like I’m having to relearn things I should’ve learned at 5 years old and it’s daunting, but I’m proud of myself for doing whatever it took for me to still be here today. It’s a lot of work but I’m truly learning how to love myself and I know my future partner is doing the same thing and I can’t wait to meet them one day so we can both reap the benefits.

      @chan90s 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Since you dated for so many years, where do you think guys go wrong? Initially, when you are into few months of dating, everything seems fine. In my case, I'm always scared that I'd be boring for any girl though I have interesting things in life going on consistently (consistency is boring for girls).
      PS: Late 20s, 0 dating experience as girls see me more like a big brother every time😮 It always scares me to flirt with a girl since I am scared of being labeled a creep

  • @readeroftheroom
    @readeroftheroom 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    First-time listener, and I really enjoyed this episode and resonated a lot with Eric's perspective and experiences (re: the model of romance and partnership set up for you by parents, wanting to live life for yourself and building a life w a partner foremost, kids, etc.) Relationships are inherently complicated and risky, and it's also hard to understand yourself within context but try to reshape aspects of yourself that were likely formed in childhood which, you know, still show up in adult relationships. Curious to hear more discussions about family history, identity, relationship psychology (platonic, romantic, familial, and how they're all connected), and children! Thanks so much

  • @WhaChuUpTo
    @WhaChuUpTo 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    The dream trio is back. Ive been following this podcast in tandem with your other socials so knew this episode was coming. Eric, you articulated your break up reasons so well without there being one reason. I too am someone who puts all my weight in the partner I get to share my life with and how WE can make meaning in this world together. I have no doubt you'll find that person. Helps when you can take your time without the ticking time clock of needing children by a certain age. As long as your heart is resilient to go through the storms and heartbreaks along the way, it's an eventuality ♥️

    Really appreciated and resonated with this episode. Kira’s insight on being ready at a specific time and choosing a partner that comes in during that time to settle with is so true! There’s multiple versions of a “soulmate” and we’re lucky to find just one. @Chloe I would love for you to expand on your hesitations on having kids in a future episode. I feel a lot of us ambitious and overthinker girlies can relate!

  • @stephynusch
    @stephynusch 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    OK this will be long. Grab a cup of tea.
    First off, about the poll: not sure. Initially I was totally against having children, but now I think I'm more open to the idea as long as I believe my future partner and I can give them a great foundation of love and our values. My priority is to love and be loved. Regardless of children coming out of that relationship or not, the thing I look for is a strong connection to someone and to love them wholeheartedly. Some people prioritize having kids - as long as the partner has a stable income and meets XYZ requirement, the end goal is to have a family. There's no wrong and right, just different priorities.
    Now for the other topics discussed, I relate a lot to you all when you say you FEEL a lot. I do have big feelings as well. Also, I have ADHD, and that comes with rejection sensitivity, so lots to unpack. I don't think we're toxic at all. People experience life in various ways. As long as you are able to sit with yourself to elaborate on your emotions, then openly communicate your needs to your partner, there's nothing to be ashamed of. I sure am a lot to handle, but the ways in which I care for my loved ones are also unique and special. You have big feelings because you have a big heart, and that might actually be one of the coolest things about you guys!
    Now sharing a bit of my own story: removing high school flings, I've only had 2 serious relationships. 1 (2013-2014) and 7 (2015-2023) years long. Me and my most recent ex-partner moved in together after only 4 months. We went through the pandemic, locked in, together and strong, and even married and moved from Brazil to Canada end of 2021. It was not abusive, toxic or anything concerning. We were best friends. Still, I decided to end it for reasons particular to myself (also I'm trying to mind the length of this comment lol).
    It was a long and painful process of grief. Only my therapist knows all the highs and lows. A few examples that come to mind: increasing my antidepressants dosage, starting exercising, furnishing a whole new place, not to mention my finances are still getting back to shape. Also socializing is not my forte. I went through the install-delete-reinstall cycle of dating apps countless times. Went on like 2 dates? and tons of conflicting thoughts and confusion. What if I end up alone? What if the perfect guy doesn't exist? Should I just settle for less than I want?
    I realized the concept of relationships I had were all messed up. Pop culture references that really helped me were:
    1. All about love, by Bell Hooks (book)
    3. Before Sunshine, Before Sunset and Before Midnight (a movie trilogy by Richard Linklater)
    4. The Unexpected Joy of Being Single by Catherine Gray (book)
    I also became a fan of existentialist thinkers such as Jean-Paul Sartre. I believe their takes on life and its meaning are the ones that make more sense to me. That you are the one to choose what you live for. We're only here for a moment, so let's just enjoy it, right?
    All that is to say, especially to Eric, that it's all right that you're sad. Feel it, elaborate it, and slowly things will get better. And that's not because "you'll soon find someone", it's because you are already in a place where you can get back up and be happy. You built it yourself. You are also already surrounded by love (at least it seems like lol) from friends.
    Finding a partner is not the end goal of life. It's great of course, but it's not a hard requirement for you to be happy, loved and admired. I came to this conclusion about myself only recently, after over a year of having broken up. That's why I couldn't do dating apps, I was really looking for a relationship for the sake of being in a relationship - I just thought I needed one because everyone else had it and I'll be 30 in a couple of months and the world is gonna end!!1!!11 LOL - that's not how it works. I realized I'm happy being single and if I happen to meet someone that makes my heart feel warmer than it already is, then I'm open. But it's also fine if I don't!
    Anyways I yapped a lot already. Great episode everyone!! Hope you're all healthy and safe and CHLOE IM SUCH A BIG FAN YOU'RE THE COOLEST!!!!

    I think it's super interesting the parents dynamic and having a child. I wonder if there's a correlation there. Similar to Eric, my parents for most of my childhood showed no affection towards each other. My partners parents are divorced and remarried during his childhood. I wonder how much of that has an impact on our hesitancy on having children ourselves vs if we grew up in households with parents who shared a strong healthy loving relationship.

    • @indecisiveCHIBI
      @indecisiveCHIBI 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Same--my parents never had a healthy, loving relationship (for as long as I can remember). I do think there is more hesitancy because we experienced first-hand as child witnessing the struggles and fights and we would never want to do that to our own kids.

    (Response to the gdp influencing child birthday theory) When you have money, you don’t want to go backwards. A country that is technologically advance will have more people who makes a decent living, and these people not want to give it up the decent living. When you go to the gym for one day, it is easier to do things that ruin that progress because you haven’t made much progress. However, if you have been going for thirty days, you wouldn’t want to do things that ruin that streak. People who already have a good gym foundation or is wealthy, wouldn’t mind doing things that set them back because they have more than enough muscle/money to eat the fall.
    The thing is unless you know you are wealthy enough or really strong, you are in this limbo on whether you are can take a set back.

    32M kinda going through a break up. This girl and I met at work. Shes super sweet and fun to be around but since we were coworkers, i didnt want to cross that boundary. We would hang out at times during our lunches but that was it. Fast foward a bit she ends up getting a new job in a different department so i thought, ok time to really pursue.
    For 2 months we went on a few dates here and there but our schedules rarely aligned. I take her out for her bday to dinner and some small gifts. Everything went great
    But then a couple weeks later, she starts to pull away. So I acknowledge it and she kinda just gives me a low effort answer. Then out of no where she just ghosts me.
    Its been 2 months since and it sucks cause shes the first girl that i felt like i can be myself around. But she honestly brought out this new found confidence in myself

    38:05 actually spend more time talking to older folks (40 yo+), you'll find that no entity (government, social welfare, private hospitals, social workers, etc) will take better care of you than your own flesh and blood. Turns out money can only buy so much. It takes more than $$$ for someone to take care of you out of love. A lot of older people come to recognition that it's quite lonely when you get to a stage in life where there are no children or grandchildren to celebrate new chapter marks in life with.

    if Chloe (ENFJ) and Kevin (ISTP) are a good match
    and Kira (ISFP) and her boyfriend (ENTJ) are a good match
    then try a little social experiment and find as many ESFJ dates as possible for Eric (INTP)

      Or don’t rely on very strict and confined personality metrics and just become a secure person by understanding the underlying trauma. Attachment theory >big 5 personality test >myers brigg personality test. But don’t essentialize these things as if their accurate or precise measurements of oneself

      @@henrytep8884 no need to state the obvious. That's why I qualified my comment as a social experiment. Obviously, it's up to the individual to consider what other factors play a role in optimal compatibility. All I am suggesting is if there is an observable pattern, doesn't exactly hurt to see if that pattern applies to you (in this case, Eric's situation), does it? Peace~

    I love your padcast video firstly, watch it all! but In-Yeon is actually a Buddhist term, which became a Buddhist term after Buddhism was introduced to China from Nepal, originally referring to the direct cause of an outcome, but later specializing in the cause that plays the main role. It does not come from Korea, the culture and term influence Korea during the Tang to Ming dynasty.

    See, we think that having medicare and nursing homes means we’ll be taken care of when we’re old, but what use is money and services if there’s so little younglings to do the work? So I think we do still need kids. Maybe when everything is run by robots, then that’s when we’re really going to hit 0 birthrates.
    Something else that I think makes the modern world lean into low birthrates is the concept of self-love. Very important yes but too much of it leads to a life where only your present happiness matters, which means any sacrifice that would take it away is an immediate no. We spent so much time building the perfect lives for ourselves, why would we throw it away for a very unstable pandora’s box, a baby?
    Also, are the costs getting higher or are we requiring higher quality goods and services to satisfy ourselves? Are our needs growing from wants and the capitalistic progress as a species?

    OK. I strongly disagree with how the woman in the middle interprets "In yeon" (or marriage fate). In my case, marriage is not just about checking boxes, meeting at the right time, and simply picking someone. I believe that the reason a person might not have found their match yet is because they haven't met the right one. From my own experience, I knew I was going to marry my husband within the first week of meeting him, and he felt the same way. At that time, neither of us wanted to get married, but our feelings soon changed as we got to know each other better.
    Marriage is about compatibility. You’ll truly know you are compatible with someone in almost every aspect when you meet and talk to them. You feel empowered by each other’s love and perspectives, safe with one another, and you trust each other completely. You also come to love each other’s families because they love you too. My partner doesn’t fit all my "check boxes," and in fact, some of his qualities are quite different from what I expected for my husband. I’m not sure if this is what "In yeon" means, but for me, making a commitment was easy when I met the right person. We continue to fall in love with each other’s view of the world even to this day.
    I want to share my own experiences and interpretation because I don’t want people to think that merely meeting all the check boxes means someone is the right person. I believe it’s deeper than that and, in my case, easier than that.
