So I respect that.

What do you cherish the most about the rise of your career?

I'm interested.

So as your rise to fame, how did your interactions with women change?

Right.

Like without dissecting into your childhood.

the a woman's approval and attention to you clearly there was an insecurity within you that you perk up and would fight till the end to make sure that you're getting to experience that as long as they're willing to give it to you and you're like waiting for someone to give you the approval and that like breathe breathe life into you essentially and you loved a woman giving you attention or validation

Well, and I think we can also agree, and we talked about this a little bit at dinner, like...

you have perspective now, right?

Like we can wrap things into a bow now.

It's like, oh, I see what I was doing in high school, why I was so insecure and I was looking for the guy's validation.

And then like, I can now see what I was doing in the moment.

You have the feelings, but you can't put it all into a box.

You now can be like, I get it now.

I get what I was doing.

I see the interactions I had and now I see this theme and now I'm able in later in my life to be like, whoa, that's why I did what I did.

What a fucking concept.

This is a, I'm sure a hard question to answer.

What is it like?

Try your best.
