Right. So a lot of them don't want to settle down until they feel like they can provide. And so I understand that. So I think that's part of the issue. But I do think the other part of it is we're really afraid of commitment as a generation in so much to the point. I talk about this a lot is that I don't believe in dating exclusively without labels.
I think that's such BS because it's something that we made up like millennials did, because dating is the trial phase for marriage. If monogamy and a traditional relationship is what you want, dating is a trial phase. You can always break up. But now we've invented this whole other phase prior to dating.
Yeah, and it's like you just don't... You can't be one foot in, one foot out. And I think if one person or both people are, that's just not the right person. It just has to be easy.
I really believe that at the end of the day, like if you're coming to me, which I love my community, but if you're coming to me, a random ass person on the Internet who's unqualified, who's never gone to school to be a therapist or anything for advice. on what to do with a man, it's most likely because you already know that relationship is somewhat over.
And you're just trying to figure out if there's any way to save it. Right.
yeah and i think that was with my husband how long did you go out before we were only together for a few months before we made it official okay and it wasn't even like men are just so dense sometimes like i had a rule for myself that i would not get physically intimate with a guy until he was my boyfriend i was his girlfriend you were going to introduce me to people and that's kind of old school i know but i just knew that is not something i am interested i'm not interested
in casual sex right and you know a lot of women can have casual sex and not get emotionally attached that was never me again always looking for my husband trying to make every wrong man my husband and so I think it just wasn't a conversation at first and he was always just like and then it got to a point where we'd been dating for three or four months and he was like I what's going on with you?
I think he thought I was like super religious or like maybe I was a virgin or something like that. I was like, no, here's my role. And if you are not there yet, that's fine. I'm happy to continue seeing you. We just can't be physically intimate. And he was like, oh, that's it. He was like, I just assumed we were already dating and boyfriend girlfriend.
I was like, no, you have to have the conversation. Right. So that's kind of how it came about. So he always likes to joke. He's like, you asked me to be your boyfriend. I was like, I did not ask you to, you know. I think that's kind of where it started. So it was very easy. It was very organic. We were together for four years before we got married.
And then we've been married for the last two years.
We do not... love a international travel and be like your dad yeah travel that requires a long flight it's just not our cup of tea um so we were thinking where can we go that still feels like like a vacation a vacation but within the continental u.s and preferably in the same time zone and um you know we have family down here so we've been to the breakers i was like i would love to just
spend like a week at the breakers yeah I did and it was the most magical week ever because the restaurants are amazing right looks like you're in Europe uh-huh the service is amazing it is my happy place down here what are some of your favorite spots Flagler Steakhouse. Oh, that's Kimmy's too.
Love a good HMF moment for pre-dinner cocktails. That was our little thing. We would love to go to HMF for cocktails before dinner and then we'd go back to HMF after dinner. After dinner. Love seafood bar for lunch. I feel like it's
still a little bit of a hidden gem though because you know generally like New Yorkers go to Miami and I well that's a very different vibe no interest at this stage of my life I am like I have no interest in Miami it's just way too much of a party scene for me like it's mostly night life exactly but you know there is life here.
My girlfriend had her 35th birthday here, so we did a girl's trip down here. We stayed at the White Elephant.
Kuchina's a theme. Well, that's the only option. That is the only option, but it's enough for me. I don't need to go out more than one night.
that's how she was brought up well that's how my mom and dad brought you up well no actually my parents are very progressive in the sense that they were never like you need to get married right away or anything like that for me what that really came from was i chose a very unconventional path out of college you know i got my bachelor's degree at nyu and i knew i wanted to go into entertainment and media so i came out of college and i was trying to be an actress
And at the time I was doing a lot of gig work. I've done lots of random jobs to supplement my income. And I think my desire to find a husband was not so much the fact that like I needed to get married, but I desperately was searching for stability. And I did not have that in my career. So I was like, if a man can give that to me, that would be great. And it's not... That's not good.
Do not do that. So do as I say, not as I did. And I had to learn the hard way that that's not how you actually find the love of your life. It's not a coincidence that by the time I met Dave, I was 27, almost 28.
Um, I had been working, uh, my, my career that did really well in the city while I was acting was I got into real estate and that was actually a really great career for me because it was flexible. I love my company. And you're charming. Oh, thank you. You are. And
