Hi guys, so this episode was going to be my very first interview, and I was super, super excited about it because it was going to be with a man,
a very intelligent, super successful, handsome guy.
He's an investor, he's an entrepreneur, he's a Stanford graduate, and he seemed really, really excited about doing this interview as well.
For you guys that follow me on social media, you probably saw who he was because I had posted a marketing art with his picture and his name yesterday obviously I've deleted because
late last night my time Eastern time was around 10 30 all of a sudden he sends me an email telling me that he had spoken to his partners or friends I'm not sure business contacts and he decided he was not a good fit for this podcast I was really surprised because the entire day we were communicating and he was super excited about it he was like oh my god this is going to be fun.
And I explained to him that my interviewing style is kind of like more the fun style.
I'm not really serious about it.
And he was like, no, I'm game.
I love it.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And all of a sudden, he changed his mind.
I did send him a bunch of questions that I was thinking about asking him.
And at first, he was totally game about it.
So I honestly don't know if his friends were maybe a little jealous of him because these things do happen with men.
Sometimes they think, oh no, you shouldn't do this.
It's a relationship podcast.
It's bad for business.
But maybe they're jealous that they didn't get invited.
Or maybe they just thought, oh, yeah, because he said it's not good for my business because it doesn't match with my business.
I actually,
so it opens up an entire new conversation.
Do you guys think really that if you participate in a relationship podcast and you're answering questions, it was nothing graphic, nothing sexual.
I'll show you guys a few of the questions I was thinking about asking him in a little while.
But really, do you think if you talk to a woman as a man and your points of view as an intelligent man, it's going to be bad for your business?
I honestly don't think so.
I think actually the opposite.
I think his websites were going to get amazing exposure through the podcast, through my social media.
A lot of people would see the personal side about him.
And I think relationships and dating in general is a topic that every person on the planet at some point
is interested in talking about.
I mean, really, everybody has dated, everybody dates, everybody wants to ultimately find a partner or a relationship or they've been married or whatever it is, you know.
So I was like, I told him, really, I mean, first of all,
sorry,
I forgot to, you guys see that I never edited.
This is like very raw, very real.
I forgot to shut off my phone.
But anyways,
I was really surprised and I was sad.
And I just told him, really, I mean, you are your own boss.
You're super successful.
You should be able to do it.
But ultimately, he was like, no, I'm sorry.
Let's revisit this in a couple of weeks.
So if you're listening to me, I'm not going to say your name here because, yeah, I think you deserve your privacy since you didn't want to do it.
Unfortunately, your marketing art was published yesterday.
So I think a lot of the people that follow me on social media know who you are but if you're listening to me and you decide you want to come back my doors are wide open you are more than welcome i would love to interview you and your friends and your business partners too if they're interested in participating and i think it would be a lot of fun For other guys out there, if you can send me a message, any guy that is interested in participating, either by telling stories of bad dates great dates
happy fantastic love stories or not so happy or if you're just willing to answer my questions from a male point of view shoot me a message here or my social media my whatsapp everybody knows it's published on instagram 305 332 0338
because i think it's so much fun if we hear from all kinds of of different perspectives next week i'm interviewing adriana demora she is famous for being on real housewives of miami she's a sweetheart she's super intelligent she lives here in miami and i can't wait to hear her stories and her opinion about it and i'm also scheduling a relationship expert
hopefully we are trying to find a date for next week So basically, I'm trying to bring people from all walks of life to help us figure out and navigate this crazy dating world.
Some of the questions I was going to ask him were, for instance, obviously I wanted to get it out of the way because of my own experience.
I wanted his opinion on why do men in general behave crappy with women they supposedly like.
And
Another question that was really important to me is that if he thinks, because he's super intelligent and he's super successful, if he thinks men in general are intimidated by intelligent women, women that work, women that accomplish things, I found many, many times it is the case with me.
Not all the time, but many, many times I'll go out with a guy and he sees my Instagram, he sees my digital media work, and he doesn't see the more brainy side of me.
And then when they realize, oh my God, this girl is a little too much for me, she writes and she blogs and she has a podcast and she has a radio show, blah, blah, blah.
Many times they do feel intimidated.
And I don't know if that's because it involves their ego or if most men really just want to date, you know, the stereotype dumb bimbo.
And I'm just curious to find out from guys
if it's crazy or yeah, if it's the truth.
Anyways, other things, of course, I was going to ask him if he ever had a super bad date, the date from hell.
What are some super must-have important characteristics that make a good partner?
And what are things that women might do on a date that are a deal breaker.
Many times I come home from a date, although I don't date much, all my dates are my episodes here on the show, as you guys can see.
But sometimes I'll come back and I'm like, oh my God, I thought this was great.
Everything went well.
And then nothing happens or the guy doesn't call me or we don't go out again or he treats me like shit.
And many times I think a lot of women relate with me that we don't really know why.
And I would love to hear from guys um what it is that we do that sometimes yeah we can do everything right and the guy is still like well that's not for me for instance the story that i'm telling you guys now about the formula one racer um that's my previous episode and my next episode the guy used to look at me when he was pissed and he'd be like oh you're too nice you're just too effing nice And I was thinking, what the hell is that supposed to mean?
Is there such a thing as being too nice?
Are we supposed to be mean?
Are we supposed to be rude?
Are we supposed to be tough?
I mean, is there such a thing?
Because usually I am extra nice with the people I like and I love, not just dates.
I'm super nice to my family.
I'm incredibly nice to my girlfriends.
I try to go out of my way for the people I love, but is there such a thing as too much?
I mean, what do guys want to see in a relationship?
So anyways, if any men out there want to participate, that would be fantastic.
I am going to try to book guys as soon as possible to substitute the interview we're going to have today.
And again, my guest, thank you, anyways.
I hold no hard feelings, no grudges.
I'm sorry you didn't do it.
If you tell me, I understand, not really, because I think your business is your business.
And I actually think you would probably get some clients and more business and people that never even heard about your website from my followers and my crowd.
But whatever, even if you didn't want me to tell people what your business is
i still think it would have been really really nice and really fun to have you here with us today and i'm so sorry you didn't come but like i said if you do change your mind and you decide you want to participate it will be such such such a pleasure to have you and again like i said last night if you wanted to edit some of the the questions if there are things that you weren't willing to answer you can always edit you can always you know, be comfortable.
Not everybody has to answer every question.
So, and by the way,
