I like Ian but its good that Chemda didn't go on a date with him. He is too much her classic type.

I would like to know how the inprint on ones brain happens who we are attracted to.
I need a partner who is more emotionally stable than me, I need to be the "wild" one in a relationship and im only medium wild at best.
An addict would be a complete turnoff for me.
I need someone i can buy and finance real estate with.

And hey i have other problems! Im also in therapy but for intrusive thoughts and depression that results from phases of intrusive thoughts running wild! ( the last 2 years were good and they are way less now)

Btw the name Keith is for me more complicated than
Chemda. Keith sounds very unusual for my ears.
And we have a Ch in polish.
If I wouldn't know English thats how I would write
Keith: Kis


Here in Germany the name Keith is extremely uncommon, I know no one with this name here.
Chemda is also unknown as a name, but for German ears it would be better to be named Chemda.

I'm not a "cat" or a "dog" person because I just love animals, period. But I do have to laugh at cat haters who love to wax poetic about the wonders of dogs and forget all the instances of dogs eating babies feet, killing people, etc. They're all animals, dude. They all have the same capacity for violence.

This is an impossible poll.

Also Ian said people are strange and I couldn’t help but think how pertinent the Doors song is. I love how genuine y’all are.

When I see scratches all over someone’s arm, first thing I think of is Must be a dog person.

There is a thing in Germany with names that are known from pretty much only pop culture ( Keith Richards would be the example), especially when it’s from the English language. They are considered lower class, in the sense that the parents have no education, when given to a kid from a German family.
The name Kevin is the most prominent example. People hate it here for a German kid. HATE IT. They say, Kevin isn’t a name, is a diagnosis.
The name Chemda would be better, because it doesn’t have anything negative attached to it and it doesn’t sound too pop cultury and not American.

I don’t say I support this view, it’s somehow random, but this is how it is here. If you want to be fancy with a name call your kid something Latin ( Aurelia) or something Prussian like Friedrich.

I can see the cuteness of cats but I’m a dog person for sure. I love to be outside, run, hike and that’s where a cat is useless. Being in nature with my dog is of the best things in life, top 5 at least.

I also thought about it.

Wow Iain and Katherine came on like they were also podcasting for half a day and had become half delirious. Love their chemistry and honesty, also cool/unfortunate that KATG was the only show to treat them both as equals, British media really is the pits, mate. Yes the US is a shitshow but at least we got rid of trump, after brexit, Boris Johnson, and covid the tories are still popular? Yikes.

If you see anyone naming their kid Brayden in Germany, call child protective services.

When I see someone wearing chewed up shoes, first think I think is Must be a cat person.

The unanswered poll finally got to me. I voted Chemda because her name was the easiest to find.

I don’t even know that name. Let’s google.

Edit:

It’s also very uncommon here and falls in the same category of names that make people say “ that poor child”.

When I was a kid growing up in an uber religious family who would spend a ton of time visiting our minister, I was terrorized by their elderly poodle who was so fucking nasty and just hated kids.

I still don't hate dogs, though. Some are mean, others are nice. The way they gaze up at you with total trust just melts the heart and makes you feel responsible for giving them the best life ever. And my cats are like that, too...when they half-close their eyes and purr at you, that's the "love gaze."

I just don't get people who say they "hate" all of any particular animal. Spiders scare me but I still don't hate them and I try to get them out of my space without killing them.

We had a bird, hamster, and several cats growing up, but my parents considered dogs too obnoxious and dirty to own as pets. In sheer contrast, American culture practically idolizes dogs, so I’m a happy neutral on dogs, but prefer cats.

I will say, I don’t like getting licked in the face, or dog slobber, which my bf’s dog takes the liberty to do. It isn’t as traumatic as the first time I got decked in the face with a large, overly slobbery dog tongue and dog breathe, but cat licks are dryer and more tolerable than over the-top dog slobber any day of the goddamn week, idc what anyone says.

I listen to the marathon and listened to this part again.
I realized that I dont like Iain.
Everything is about him and his addiction. He also has no incentive to ever stop. He is the identified problem child in their relationship.
He is in the center of attention with all his problems and know next to nothing about her.



What an unhealthy dynamic. If my friend said he loved cocaine more than me I wouldnt just take it. I know i would say, next time you have problems call cocaine i guess.

Not to punish him but to respect myself.
And of course Chemda is right, being addicted to help others makes you feel like the one who doesn't have problems.
