I think I got screwed with the rental market a little bit. It's just really high for what you get.
Right. Well, it's also where I work most of the time, too, because a lot of the content that I shoot is at my house. I record at my house sometimes, my podcast. So I spend a lot of time there.
I'll be happy when I buy a house. I'm a control freak about like my space. I love home decor. I've flipped houses before and I love designing. I've done that a few times with my ex. And so I, it kind of drives me crazy that I can't like, that I don't own my space. I think that's the psychological part that drives me a little crazy.
It's so true. And I think I realized that when I was married, too, because we bought, like, my dream house, and I renovated it exactly how I wanted it, and I got my perfect sink that I loved from Italy and all that. And then I still was like, mm... thought I'd feel different. And I don't, you know, you have your kids, you get the babies.
I don't want to spoil alert anything for you, but they really don't complete you. If anything, they are a mirror to everything that you really still need to work on in yourself. And I think that's another thing I thought with kids too, that it was going to be like, my heart will be whole and complete.
It's like, no, you're just going to be really tired and madly in love with these things that you have no control over. And now a piece of your heart lives outside of you and you can be worried about them for the rest of your life.
Yeah, I was never going to be happy in that situation. We weren't meant to be lifelong partners.
I think in a way I really wanted to be a mom more than anything. And this is my boyfriend that I had been with for a long time who I really loved. I still really love him. He is a super independent kind of person who really told me pretty much from the start in many ways that he was never going to be like a family man. He never really wanted to be married. He still doesn't. And I forced it.
And I was like, I think I thought that Once we have the kids, he's going to change his mind. And once we're married, he's going to change his mind. But he really just never did. And he was never really like the kind of partner that I wanted, like somebody who really wanted to do things together and be real partners. And that showed up in more ways than one.
And then I couldn't really ignore it anymore. It was a hard decision to make. And my parents were not behind it. I still have friends who are like, you guys should just get back together. And honestly, sometimes like in the dating world, I'm like, he wasn't that bad, actually. This was a journey I was meant to be on because I think I really do.
I never would be happy unless I proved to myself that I could do it alone. I think that's kind of part of my journey.
Yeah.
Totally.
Oh, yes. Yeah. In that way, for sure. One of the things that I feel so deeply about is that women should never be stuck in a situation because they can't financially afford to live independently or be divorced. I can't imagine not having had that as an option. My situation wasn't like I wasn't in a domestic abuse situation or anything that was life threatening.
But there's like really women all the time who can't leave. dangerous situations because they literally can't afford it.
Yeah, it's so empowering having your own money because it's your own freedom. And I worry for women who are putting all their hope in a man, not building a career of their own and staying home with kids. I like that idea, but it makes me worried because you don't have a backup plan and you're really counting on this man just staying with you forever. And statistics just don't support that.
Yeah.
Oh, it was brutal. It was a nightmare. Because now you're at the whim of lawyers also who... I mean, the billing situation, to me, it's criminal. They can charge whatever they want. You don't really know what's going on.
And there's like this discovery process where you need to wait for everybody to like basically show all their cards and then eventually go in front of a judge if you don't figure it out through some. We ended up mediating mostly because I didn't want to pay for lawyers anymore.
It was like at least all said and done, close to $100,000. Yeah. And his too? No. His wasn't. I don't know why his was so much cheaper. I think maybe because he wasn't really asking questions. I do think I got screwed with my lawyers. Actually, I had one lawyer and then all of a sudden there was just like this automated response that she had left the firm and they gave me somebody new. What? Yeah.
