Positive.

I have not ever been frustrating. Not when. Never.

[theme song performs]


Drew:

Hi, I Am Drew.


Christina:

And I Also'm Christina.


Drew:

And introducing

Wait, Is It A Date?


Christina:


Hold Off, Is It A Night Out Together

is actually an Autostraddle podcast aimed at the main one, really the only question that we actually ever need discuss. I don't know in which i am going with this particular. It's about matchmaking and it is about knowing whether things are dates or not, et cetera.


Drew:

A pal of mine asked me— literally i acquired a text past which was like, “I am not sure when this thing i am on is a date or perhaps not.” And that I ended up being like, “i've a podcast about that.” In which he was actually like, “Yeah, i understand. I know.” And I had been like, “you could potentially ask.” And he was like, “And risk getting rejected? Never Ever.” And I also moved, “Well, you really need to listen to the podcast much more because we carry out include this really thing.”


Christina:

And that is actually what we're hoping to get to at the conclusion of the ding dang time.


Drew:

Yeah. I'm Drew Gregory. I'm an author for Autostraddle and a filmmaker and a queer trans woman and in all honesty holding over from a week ago, just number one Paul Newman fanatic of the moment that is— you understand, i enjoy change finished . I am just positively fixating on which is the matter that I— Now we are on few days two.


Christina:

I favor that. I Am Christina Tucker. I'm also a writer at Autostraddle and a podcaster across damn city. Community in doing this could be the internet. I am in addition very gay and that I love to support your hyper fixations on circumstances.


Drew:

Thank you.


Christina:

I do believe it is incredible. I believe it is gorgeous and I also'm truly glad you are nevertheless about journey with our guy, Paul. In my opinion that is gorgeous.


Drew:

Thanks much.

You have a game title in my situation?


Christina:

I actually do have a-game individually. You will find a casino game individually that i believe is actually gonna be rather difficult, but it is enjoyable.


Drew:

Great. Great, fantastic, great. Everyone loves that. I enjoy it, I love it.


Christina:

This video game is: So is this a Hayley Kiyoko lyric or perhaps is it a line from Rupi Kaur's poetry?


Drew:

Wow. Okay.


Christina:

Which is going to be challenging, but we will have a good time. We aren't here for a long period, we are right here for a great time. That's the motto.


Drew:

Wow. You're really wading into two discourses. After all, there's not truly countless Hayley Kiyoko discourse, actually.


Christina:

Yeah. And I also thought I'd go-back at some point to, I am not sure, 2014 once we were having Rupi Kaur discourse. I Am Not Sure we tend to be anymore, but—


Drew:

No, which is a very good point. Yeah.


Christina:

Have you thought to make a joke when you are able make bull crap?


Drew:

Sure. Yeah, why don't we get it done.


Christina:

Isn't it time?


Drew:

Yeah.


Christina:

“the fact remains you create my personal language so weakened it forgets exactly what language to dicuss in.” Or, “hear the vocals. Will you be truth be told there? Through the woods, fill air.”


Drew:

I do believe the initial you're Rupi Kaur and the second a person is Hayley Kiyoko


Christina:

And you're proper. Gorgeous work.


Drew:

Great. Okay. This could turn out to be humiliating because I'm not probably state I was a large Hayley Kiyoko fan in 2018, but I did see the lady in concert and pay attention to her a large amount so I think you could say I was no less than an admirer.


Christina:

I'm likewise a fan. And that I would respect that. Though used to do, i believe, typically select from modern record. If You're extremely acquainted that record album already—


Drew:

I'm not. I am not.


Christina:

Correct. Because we have been in a Paul Newman spot. We haven't held it's place in a listening to Hayley location.


Drew:

No. I mean—


Christina:

No, We listen to you. I hear you. Okay, number 2. “Shadows go up in the steps,” very first line. And you're second line, “just like the rainbow after the rain.”


Drew:

Oh, that is so hard. Might imagine rainbow may be Hayley due to the fundamental queer. I'm going to choose that.


Christina:

You will be inaccurate. “The rainbow after the rain” is Rupi.


Drew:

Wow.


Christina:

Yes. Yes, certainly. But yeah, I imagined which may throw you for 1.


Drew:

Yeah.


Christina:

There is five of the. And so I'm not planning to allow you to do a lot of these since this is challenging. Quantity five.


Drew:

No, no, no. I am having a very good time.


Christina:

Perhaps not number five. Number 3. I'm not sure simple tips to depend. I'm gay. “It really is caught within my head, everything we could have been.” Number two. “We will our injuries with grace.”


Drew:

Oh see, this feels also easy. Personally I think like i am obtaining tricked. It is like the most important a person is obviously Hayley therefore the next a person is Rupi, the good news is I'm want, in the morning We getting tricked? I'll change my instinct. The 2nd a person is—


Christina:

You're say the second you're Hayley?


Drew:

The next one is Hayley. Yeah.


Christina:

Okay. You should trust the intuition, that's a training both for speculating exactly what are words versus poetry and internet dating in addition. That's a lesson with the audience also.


Drew:

Wow. Okay.


Christina:

All right. Number four. “and therefore we become endless,” or “coals such as the sea piece of cake healed your broken parts.”


Drew:

Oh God. Those both actually could possibly be often, that I know may be the point from the video game, but it's nonetheless—


Christina:

Its great as soon as you validate that used to do an excellent job in getting this deranged game collectively.


Drew:

I think the very first a person is Hayley additionally the second a person is Rupi.


Christina:

You sadly would be wrong. “and therefore we become eternal” is actually Rupi and “cold like the sea cinch healed your damaged pieces” is actually the main legend, Hayley Kiyoko.


Drew:

Wow. Okay.


Christina:

Okay. All of our last any. Are you psychologically prepared?


Drew:

I do believe very.


Christina:

Okay. “I would burn off both you and you still couldn't take your vision off me personally,” or “i am done with fires in order to prove that i have been cursed.”


Drew:

Wow. Okay. I do believe the first you're Hayley because that feels as though the woman homosexual bravado.


Christina:

You're wrong. Any particular one is actually Rupi Kaur.


Drew:

What?


Christina:

Yeah.


Drew:

Wow. I must say I believed good about any particular one.


Christina:

No, that certain ended up being actually shocking and I was really excited to just be like, oh, there's two fire ones that i will developed, but we realized that has been the hardest one thus I performed save yourself it for last.


Drew:

What's Rupi Kaur to? Is actually she simply creating poetry?


Christina:

I believe she is nevertheless writing books. I think what the training for this video game is actually, such a thing is a lyric and anything maybe a Rupi Kaur poem.


Drew:

You can believe lyrics tend to be poetry.


Christina:

Wow. which is really huge to think about.


Drew:

The one thing I will state about Hayley Kiyoko is actually i am thus happy with their that she don't quit online dating “right women” and found a person who she is today in a complete on commitment with that like— of all the, you're interested in direct ladies, what takes place from that, she eventually pulled the Tig Notaro, Stephanie Allynne. She eventually did the main one the spot where the individual was not straight. These people were involved when it comes to long term or perhaps for a respectable amount period. And I'm just so delighted on her behalf. It is not one thing i would suggest to prospects that aren't pop performers.


Christina:

Yeah. I might perhaps not date ex Bachelor contestants both. Appears hard. Seems like a tough roadway.


Drew:

Yeah. There's always a small number of who hop out very early. What i'm saying is i have just viewed two periods, but i felt like there were two contestants in which you're in this way person's as well cool because of this or perhaps is just another type of variety of hot. Is a gay hot compared to a Bachelor hot. And always had gotten off of the very first episode or the second episode and most likely that's the reason, but I would date one of them.


Christina:

Yeah. I would date without a doubt. For sure. Mainly, in all honesty, simply to be like, yeah, which is something I did. How fun is to express aloud?


Drew:

It's a very good point.

Well, which was a blast.


Christina:

I'm thus pleased. I believe this then visitor and subject will probably be a blast additionally.


Drew:

I believe so as well. Should the very special visitor introduce by herself?


Yashwina:

Hi, I Am Yashwina. Known to those that like me or dislike myself as Yash.


Christina:

I like the confidence of really love myself or detest me.


Yashwina:

I love to offer men and women choices. I'm also an author and nuisance at Autostraddle.


Christina:

Yes. We like a nuisance per which in which we get. We help nuisancetry.


Yashwina:

I simply believe we will need to support gay wrongs plus gay legal rights.


Drew:

And you've really accompanied me in providing some traditional flick electricity and fandom to Autostraddle. And it's really really powerful to not end up being by yourself.


Yashwina:

I enjoy this for all of us.


Christina:

It's really beautiful to see you guys have this type of a huge amount of time in the classic movie energy.


Drew:

Truly, I think we're able to do so more. I think we're able to bring it … I am not sure. I became viewing all those Paul Newman motion pictures and I was actually like, can I get articles using this? And I had been like, I don't know if I could. It might be a stretch. However I was like, really…


Christina:

That is your preferred sorts of stretching though. Definitionally, your chosen particular extend is how can I get this to work?


Drew:

Definitely. Therefore we'll see.


Yashwina:

The type is literally called Butch Cassidy.


Drew:

Ooh.


Christina:

Well. And claim that.


Drew:

Wow.


Christina:

Point out that.


Yashwina:

I recently believe lesbians should dress like Paul Newman characters. Enough already perform.


Drew:

I actually do agree.


Christina:

Yeah. I need to accept this 1.


Drew:

We are really not unfortunately— Well, maybe not sadly. We are right here to talk about a thing that's strongly related the dating podcast, et cetera, etc. Therefore it is not unpleasant, but we're here to speak about the main topic of adding associates to friends. What happens whenever our very own pals dislike our partners or perhaps not associates, but somebody we are going on several times with, some body we're connecting with, someone who we're delivering into their schedules against their will, and precisely what do they must say about that.


Christina:

I adore that you made that appear to be a hostage situation.


Drew:

Often it feels as though it.


Christina:

Bringing this person to your life against your own might and you'll deal.


Drew:

I suppose 1st question that i've for people is in that powerful, are you presently usually the one getting the person against your pals’ will and/or person whose will is actually… this is certainly obtaining perplexing. Do you realy will big date people that your friends dislike? Do your buddies have a tendency to date individuals who you never like?


Christina:

As a well-known hater, i shall state it's that my buddies date individuals who I do not like. One of my personal greatest fears in daily life is i'd date somebody that my pals don't like. Practically nothing would worry me completely above that. Being similar, “I am not sure the thing I'm… Just What Are we doing right here? Exactly how so is this likely to work?” That will actually deliver me for a spiral. And so I often just hide inside my spot and stay similar, “Hmm. Here is the person you are taking. Interesting.”


Drew:

We usually consider considering understanding you that that fear is definitely not the only reason you aren't an important dater, however it is a part of the fears.


Christina:

Oh, undoubtedly element of it. Truly part of it. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right. What about you two?


Yashwina:

I have been on every side of the picture, but i shall claim that usually my pals have actually said that my flavor is really hit-or-miss. Much more skip.


Christina:

Interesting. Interesting.


Yashwina:

Yeah. I've been in situations where my pals did not such as the individual I happened to be internet dating, where in fact the individual I happened to be dating did not like my pals, then where I have maybe not appreciated people that my buddies had been online dating sometimes. Thus I have seen every setting.


Drew:

How can you feel about it? Could it possibly be relationships or perhaps is it people you are casually watching frequently?


Yashwina:

It really is certainly been both, however it is interesting in times when i'm so much of it is all about a hierarchy of allegiance or depend on or loyalty in which it's like, easily trust one individual to get me personally aside and become similar, “Hey, this other individual into your life isn't really dealing with you the means you want to view you be treated,” then there's sorts of a pecking order where it's want, fine, this person will be the one whoever interpretation of activities I have to pay attention to probably the most and maybe others have taken with cereals of sodium. However if, such and these types of configuration, this individual is advising me personally since they worry about myself plus they desire nutrients for me, that one thing isn't really correct, then you've to hear it.


Drew:

Yeah. Its fascinating because with not my present commitment, but my personal a lot of major connection before that, whenever we started matchmaking, it was mainly my personal lover advising me personally that my buddies form of sucked. As well as in some steps you would think that might be like, ah, that isn't a sign in the event your partner's attempting to change you against your pals. It was carried out in a way that has been really caring and my most readily useful companion — want it was not these — thus I believe additionally assisted. And that I had been a college college student and was closeted so my buddies were either directly or also closeted. And a lot of my buddies performed suck and didn't… and never even sucked. Because how much does which means that? But simply failed to treat me personally really well. So she was to generate those comments. Nevertheless now, because I feel far more stable in my own relationships, if any person I was online dating were to say, “everyone draw,” I would personally resemble, ah, this is not a beneficial indication. This really is a red banner. Which the good news is, i have never been in a relationship where my buddies and my personal lover go along over currently which I have along side my lover's pals many it is best. It really is much nicer.


Christina:

Carry on. Actually.


Drew:

And also the first couple of major interactions I had, it was not that my pals did not like the individuals. They enjoyed all of them a large number. It is simply i did not also realize during the time, because I didn't have almost anything to contrast it to. Now I'm want, oh, the folks during my life tend to be excited to see… It really is different. It just feels different and it is great. And that's a really great thing.


Christina:

Yeah. It is really cool.


Drew:

And, I am not sure. I am talking about, i really do consider folks need to make errors. Not really blunders. Must date people who they are online dating {a
