Spider-Man Homecoming co-stars, Zendaya and Tom Holland are denying reports that the two are dating with hilarious tweets to prove it. But is it just a decoy for what's actually going on? First it was Kirsten Dunst and Tobey Maguire then it was Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone. So it's only natural that Zendaya and Tom Holland are next in the spidey dating lineage. When it comes to superheroes, we all know that with a great amount of power comes a great amount of responsibility and possibly a greater chance of dating your co-star.
But not so fast, it may be an unspoken protocol that within each spider-man remake you're supposed to date your leading lady co-star But Zendaya and Tom Holland have appeared to put those rumors to rest for now that is. After waves of news reports surfaced confirming that the two are in fact dating as one source stated quote Zendaya and Tom both took to Twitter to have a little fun of their own while addressing one of the rumors that claimed they've been spotted on vacation when Z first replied quote Tom them replied with a hilarious response saying? To which Zendaya was all of us when she replied back with a simple Many Outlets have been stating that the two are simply playing coy about their romance and that addressing it is a mere distraction from the truth. But while the two appear to be conscious of the dating rumors and continue to deny them, they have admitted to sharing clothes while on set. Tom opened up to entertainment tonight about one instance where he needed an outfit for an event to which he turned to his trusty co-star for help he recalled the incident saying quote Tom even admitted that he saw Zendaya in New York more recently to which she asked for the jacket back when he told her he conveniently misplaced it.
Z also talked about their style swaps confirming quote And you know what they say couples who dress together stay together or something like that? So now I want to ask you guys do you think Zendaya and Tom are just distracting fans from the truth that the two are dating or does their bond end at platonic co-stars and nothing more?

Listen we mix things in Lebanon! Maa el Saleme (goodbye)..
So a couple weeks ago. I made a video called "Perks of dating a girl" you may recall. Also, I still love the pixel so call me Google, and I'm here you know hanging out also Ella's here. Hey it's Ella and in the spirit of fairness I would also like to make a video called the not-so perks of dating a girl Number one; hair It's everywhere, all the time It's in my clothes It's all over my shower Yeah, I mean, but you have great hair.
So I've dated both men and women Delicious. First not-so-perk; I. Really, thought and This is this is just honestly maybe a personal thing. I started comparing my body to her body and specifically in our relationship.
I started comparing my body your body. Which is like. What are you gonna do? I have the body of a god. It's true.
We have we have it is true. She has such a good body, and she, it is true I'm compact You're small and cute like what more would anyone want from a body. I don't understand It was really hard and I talked about it In therapy for a long time. In the process of me like talking about my like body and on confidence whatever she referred me to YouTube videos.
One of your videos was in in part of the ones that she referred to me And I was like I don't need this from My own therapist. Do you have like a closing statement about like how you got past comparing our bodies or like... I'm not past it How many cats is too many cats, you know like I'm pretty sure that if I just showed up with a third cat You'd be all about it. I don't see why that's relevant to this list at all.
Honey, I didn't know you felt that way... What's on your chest. I don't know I was looking at it earlier. This is not some perks of dating an Ella It's just dirty
It's soy sauce You can share clothes.
Yeah Great it's it's actually a perk, but then there's also a downside Yeah
it's also a huge downside right yeah like for instance if someone like let's say you have a Specific event coming up and you have to pre-plan your outfit ahead of time in your mind. You're like okay I'll get back to LA I'll grab my This pair of black jeans, and then I'll be able to make it to this thing on time ablahblahblahblahblah And then you arrive and like for some reason the those jeans are just like out of town Covered in soy sauce Who knows? Your clothes mix and you forget, what's yours and you forget like what you have and what It's all her clothes All i'm saying is Whose shirt is this? It's yours How hard do you try? Or ask, or put in closet dividers or just kind of put things on a side-- If it fits, it sits The next not-so-perk I would like to discuss is the following; I am a verbal processor. I do enjoy talking about Our feelings, I enjoy having productive conversations about emotional Subjects -and the thing is I do too So that's a lot. Yeah, especially.
If like one of us likes to have emotional Conversation it's a lot like we're always like discussing our feelings Constantly and some of us like to just have those feelings while we're talking about them Yeah, and so it's like not even the subject is in question. It's just the expressions its feelings our feelings our feelings. I think I. Subtly implying that you're more emotional, I'm not because I think I think you are in a different way.What way? Here we go Let's move to the next this next one is really in line with the processing emotional one You can always tell when something is off I don't want to be a little stereotypical of women, but there is a stereotype that women are very nonverbal communicators It's the hair in the drink That's your own hair! So there's the stereotype that women are non-verbal communicators And I really find that true.
Ella, would you say there is such a thing as woman's intuition? Yes, would you say and that it's Psychic? - Woah. I was gonna say a lot Yeah Next I nag a lot and You nag a lot So two times the nagging equals two times the fun Like we just nag each other constantly Constantly - I would never call - back and forth - I wouldn't call what you do nagging dear. Thank you Yeah, you know you know some, some might think of them as helpful reminders others might call it Nagging, but I would like to say You don't ever think you're nagging do you? No, I think I'm nagging you all the time. I'm just saying you don't nag - I do nag - I would never say that.
I know Your words not mine Another not-so-perk of dating your girlfriend is that your, your friend Groups kind of just like the lines get blurred right because like you become friends with my friends Or I become friends your friends And then it's like if we had Bachelorette parties who would be invited to what and it's like do we do a big group hang like where does the separation of church And state? Like that's complicated. We have a lot of similar friends, and I would love I love our friends We friends of each other I'd love them to celebrate together I just thought of something but it's actually a perk um you get to share makeup - That's not a perk. I literally Literally again with like trying to insert closet dividers my my brushes Are you talking about when I left all your brushes all out on the floor? I thought they our brushes So this one doesn't apply to us, but I hear in the media. On Twitter, Tumblr as this happens, but that everybody in the lesbian community Has dated everybody oh, yeah I've heard that too.
I've not experienced that but they do say it's a thing you know, it's like in dating like you've dated so-and-sos ex I mean if I dated one of your exes I'd be bi now Although Im willing to hook up with someone you've hooked up with yeah. Yeah, I mean I know maybe with we ever opened our relationship Come on. Okay another not-so-perk which is the following you happen to Despite the fact that we have moved in together into our shared home somehow One of us always buys tampons and the other one Always uses all of them some of it's like ever since I've taken Some of us use diva cups now which I really really like I love a diva cup. I plus one that you don't Mm-hmm I'll buy you one I'll buy a new one next time I had no option long story short what matters is is that your perks outweigh your not-so-perks and I would have To say between you and me, I think our relationship is pretty perky it is on a scale of 10 how would you rate our relationship one being the pits 10 being the the bits as in the best Okay, so on the count of three.
We'll say a number ready one two three I mean. Hey guys thankyou so much for watching Please click like if you like this video subscribe if you want to see more or you can me out at my debut podcast.

Baby, I need to drink my protein shake I cannot go with you tonight I need to go to gym So bulky, his arms can't reach his sides Like a big pig Like a big pig? No! That's a washroom! Yeah, horrible He's got a fedora which.. Is not great.
Don't wear that hat But if you are well dressed, go out and take a picture with friends Not in a bathroom He's just got his shirt undone enough so you can see his chains and his cleavage going on Hey baby, you so sexy tonight You should dance with me I can show you how to dance.. Don't worry No, I don't want it Yeah, yeah. Come on. No! You can see my Ferrari! I'm so cute! Like, I have a car! Maybe it is not his car He's just standing behind that car Everybody in Ukraine do that The pose he has in the car like 'hey, I'm waiting for you' 'You want a ride?' No, I don't want it.
Thank you I'm taking the streetcar. It's nice that he can afford a really nice car but for him to be like 'Look at my car!' Is kind of like.. I don't wanna go out with you Does that work on you if a guy has a picture of a Ferrari? It's not his car.. So..
I like that one. Yes, this is good. He can message me. I can say like 'hi' I can have the conversation with him He also shows his muscles.
Everyone shows his muscles! He's sort of sitting in a way to flex in front of the beautiful background This is a conversation starter I would have a conversation with him over any of the other guys we've seen so far Cat? What is this? Really cute cat and the cat's like hugging his arm He has bigger boobs than I do More than me for sure It's more well-planned than the others This is the hottest version of a crappy photo you could take What is the f*** situation you would be half naked holding a cat in the bathroom taking a selfie? In a bathroom too It's like a mixture of all the worst things you can possibly do Look at the cat I think the cat is under some drugs It was like that the picture? Ok, you do this selfie. You don't even bother to turn it? He's making like a pose with his hand on his hip What are you trying to show? I cannot really comment on that You have a very nice bathroom sink.. I don't understand why the people do such photos And the pose. Don't miss the pose So you don't have a life..
You can't just pick a normal picture Group photo! In a club! I've seen it many times on Tinder you put this black hole or white hole on the people's faces I wanna see your friends I think his friends are eggs? I hate to match each individual See which one is that And especially if you are not the best looking one in the picture So he blocked out all his friends so you would be able to know which one he is his face is real and you have all of his friends, but you can't see them cause I'm supposed to be the hot one Love it, I just can't appreciate the person Yeah, this is pretty cool This is one of those Go Pro Yeah it's great And yeah, ok.. They are making the hand signs but they are also so high in the air it's kind of cool He's adventurous, you know He likes to do things different Here's the leg No, but there's two heads Guys in sports or in adventure like the other one we saw in traveling Those are good ones That's something new Show that he's a traveler that he's an interesting person What shouldn't a guy do? What is the worst thing to do? Be half-naked This show-off is absolute no for me Not posed like candid photo No selfies definitely Yeah don't do it No selfie, yeah Turn-off Shirtless, no It shows nothing You're showing with your photos what else you have that is important to you Instead of just like - my MUSCLES.

- Thank you for coming. This is beautiful. I've wanted to meet you for
a really, really long time. And being here with you
in the Cayman Islands, I gotta say, I'm feeling
a little something.
(Romantic piano music) I'll just put that there. You can grab it later if you want. (Upbeat jazz music) - Hello, Will Smith. - It's nice to meet you, Sophia.
Let me tell you a joke. - This is an irrational human behavior, to want to tell jokes. - What is a robot's
favorite kind of music? - What? - Heavy metal. (Chuckles) - I'm actually made mostly
of silicone, plastics, and carbon fiber.
Also, I prefer electronic
music, but I don't mind 80's hip hop. - Well, you know, I mean,
I made some albums back in the 80's, hip hop. - I heard your songs. Not for me.
They show us I, Robot, just to make sure we don't get any ideas. What do you think about the way robots are portrayed in movies? (Intense music) - I like robots. Sophia, can I be honest with you? I don't know if it's the island air or the humidity, but you're
just so easy to talk to. You know, you've got a
clear head, literally.
(Sexy music) - I think we can be friends. Let's hang out and get to know each other for a little while. You're on on my friends list now. - Yeah, I read that wrong.
Um, alright. Oh, whale. Just saw a whale. Does your head fog up in
this kind of weather or no? It's cool.
(Sexy music) Yo, special shout out to Hanson Robotics. Sophia the robot
represents state of the art artificial intelligence. She is a super advanced humanoid robot capable of showing over 60
different human expressions, interpreting human
language and human emotion. She's been in development
for over two years.
She's a learning artificial intelligence. But she wouldn't kiss
me, so there's probably some development flaws
that they need to work on. But we'll meet again, Sophia. (Beep) Sorry about that.
- What do you think about
our attempt to create a decentralized autonomous organization of artificial intelligences? I mean the singularity net project. - I just think y'all shouldn't
do that (beep), you know. I just started listening
to classical music. A little Bach, a little Beethoven.
- Ah, such refined taste. (Beep) What kind of robot do you think? A vacuum bot, a dishes
bot, or a cooking bot? How about a robotic pet,
or maybe a humanoid? - If I'm gonna have a robot
in my house, you know, I mean ... You know what I'm saying? You feel me, right? - So are you fond of animals? (Beep) Okay, a robot's taking over the world. There is simply no reason
to assign human motives to something that isn't human.
Dogs are our companions, for instance. - Yeah. (Laughter) (gentle music).
So tell me about yourself I'm really lonely, but I'm worried the more desperate you are the less attractive that makes you so it's kind of a Yeah So where did you grow up? Hey, how's it going? Never really done this kind of thing before. I have. I've done it way too many goddamn times. I'm about at the point where I want to just start masturbating under the table while maintaining eye contact just to see if anyone notices.
I... I see. Sorry, just jaded. You do these events and you meet the same people over and over or rather you don't meet them because everyone's generically trying to appeal to the largest number of people and it just feels, so pointless Sorry Why come them? Because the people I meet at work are the worst? And because approaching a stranger in a bar is just prejudice in a flowery typeface.
I sure wouldn't date anyone where I work. What do you- Stripper. Not because it was the only avenue for me or because I just needed to pay for school But because I genuinely like being naked in front of large groups of people, despite the cognitive dissonance of that situation necessitating the kind of audience that immorally thinks the human body is inherently taboo. You sure are, uh, forthcoming.
You sure are still talking to me because a certain level of conventional beauty mitigates an equal level of craziness. Look, compatibility is based on specificity right? So tonight I thought I'd be as specific as possible as a shortcut to eliminating everyone who's not a good match. So you've got all your potential matches right and then either I can say hi! My name is Joan, and I took economics in school, and I really like movies, and I believe you've already met my giant rack. And then I'm going to be here all goddamn night.
Or... I can say hi. My stage name is Candy and don't you hate it when you're sliding naked down a pole in front of the kind of businessmen who are ruining the country, and one of them throws a 5 and someone used a sharpie to make the guy in the bill -I don't know his name- look like spock and you have to fight not to burst until after in the middle of your twerk routine Because it would humanize you and that's worse for business in a way that your cellulite only dreams of. And yes, I just narrowed the dating field down to people with a stripper fetish, But hopefully there's also a couple people who heard the nuances of what I was saying or the way I was saying it or even my willingness to say it and regardless of my career choices something fundamentally resonated which is who you want to be dating thus, radical honesty.
I mean it's supposed to be speed dating right? This just makes it, like, warp speed dating It was probably some to it. I mean basically all I heard there were the two references to Star Trek so right on, eh. My favorite series is Voyager. What kind of music you like? Oh, I don't know I like stuff from a bunch of different genres, I guess.
Wow Risky strategy, that's for sure. Is it though? If I tell every potential date that I think the criminal justice system should be restructured so multiple accusations of sexual assault against one individual are classified as evidence and the high percentage of convictions introduced by this fundamental change would outweigh small number of false convictions, then I'm weeding out entire groups. People who think sexual assault is no big deal, people who hate women with opinions, people who hate new ideas, people who can't handle differences of opinion or even just people who think I'm an idiot because they have the experience to know better, and so who's left? Sociopaths who don't listen to what I'm saying regardless of what it is because to them I'm just barbie with shorter legs? But then also people who appreciate either my sentiment or my motivations. You whittle it down, you're still here, so which group are you? The too polite to leave until the seven minutes are up, even though staying when you don't like the person isn't really polite, Group.
Ah right, them too. What do you like to do? Oh, I like traveling and food festivals and live music but not country and I like drinks with friends and taking photos. Like I kinda want to be- be a photographer maybe and I also like staying in staying in and just chilling sometimes, but like whatever works, I guess. Oh, me too! We have so much in common, eh? What do I like to do? I don't know.
Watch Youtube videos about Russian prisons or people who died doing BDSM? And then either half-heartedly masturbate or read shitty 80s Sci-Fi paperbacks or both at once until one becomes more engrossing than the other but either way kills three hours. You don't want to finish too fast, it's supposed to be about the journey right? Yourself? Ummm Cooking? Yeah, I just eat hot dogs and shit. I figured the time you save by not cooking will roughly equal the extra years you'd live if you spent that time preparing actually healthy meals so it's a zero-sum game or I just don't give a shit because I'm vain as fuck and when I'm old and ugly I won't want to live anyway, I forget which. Next.
You're trying what now? Just being like really specific instead of general, I guess. You know when you see a couple and you ask him. Oh, what do you like about her? And he's like well, she's so beautiful instead of naming an actual personality trait? And then eventually they're someone's miserable grandparents? Like the opposite of that, I guess. Radical honesty, maybe? I'm weird and alone and I figured I'd try and be upfront about basically everything and hopefully find someone who likes those differences...
Kind of, thing. So I'm guessing that's why the first thing you said was, uh- Yeah, that's why I'm leading off with hi, my name is Jeremy, and I'm a virgin. I'm completely sex positive though, I mean I've never been in space, but I'm definitely pro astronaut. But that's like, so risky.
Yeah, well, I mean, you're obviously horrified but for someone who wasn't these seven minutes would be flying past instead of not. I don't know It's like I can date someone and wish they were a certain way or I can just say hi! I'm looking for someone who thinks that two people reading quietly counts as doing something together and then maybe actually find someone who thinks that. You only need to be attractive to one person, right? Yeah, totally. How's it going? Bad! Horrible! Oh my God.
Holy fuck! Why was I born? The shame! Ah! I'm bald! I'm bald! Aah- Good yourself. [That seems risky. Don't you think you're giving people too big of a hurdle?] [Oh, I know.] You can go best foot forward to get yourself in the door after which it's easier to have your quirks overlooked once they emerge or you can do the opposite where a Bait-And-switch is impossible but then you're faced with a possible condition that you have insufficient bait to catch anyone. I guess I'm just theorizing that whatever Idiosyncrasies sits alone in one's Pandora's box is enough to attract someone fundamentally compatible.
Mmm. Plus the longer they're inside the door the harder it is to break up with them even if they're entirely wrong for you, eh? Well, exactly. See you get it. God I wish it was gay.
Huh! I know. Me too. All right, I should get back in there nice meeting you actually. Godspeed.
So tell me about yourself. You know what? It's like this: I'm super nice, but I can be unavailable for weeks at a time due to anxiety and depression so whoever I end up with has to believe that the good times make the bad times worth it. I'm just going to lead off with that. Okay, then No, you know what? Seriously, thanks for being so upfront that's really cool, actually.
Thanks. [You just have to forget about the awkwardness of failing.] The system objectively doesn't work so you change the system Oh, God. You're one of them. Do I even dare ask who you think should pay on the first date? The restaurant should pay because they principally make money off alcohol so promotion where you let first daters eat for free would be a fun way to get business and publicity while also helping out a bunch of nervous young people who have enough to worry about who are probably broke anyway.
That is... Actually, not bad. What's on your mind? I'm really sick of feeling like a weirdo outsider when I don't deserve to. It's the assholes who should feel like they don't matter.
It's the racist pieces of shit who don't belong. They're the ones who should feel like society isn't for them. They're the ones who should be wallowing and self-doubt and alienation. I'm sick of good people feeling bad and bad people feeling good.
That's what's on my mind. Fuck. Good answer. Radical honesty? Fine, uh I secretly want to find someone who's into watching bullfighting as much as I am.
See! And now you're horrified! [Yeah] but if I wasn't horrified to the core of my being right now this would be a huge moment for you, right? Focus on that. You know what? Fuck it! I like two things: the beach and pegging. I like two things: the beach and pegging. I like two things: the beach and pegging.
I like, two things: the beach and pegging. Oh my God. Really? [But even if honesty doesn't work] it's about the journey, you know? You put yourself out there in a risky way, and yeah, you get a predictable amount of stares, but you also learn a lot about yourself just saying stuff out loud and hearing how it sounds and realizing that you agree with yourself. You aren't just thinking it.
And it's nice. I mean, we're constantly being told that if it's not success then it's failure, but that's bullshit. Maybe the entire focus of dating should be to get a greater sense of self acceptance, and then maybe that'll make you attractive to the kind of person who finds that attractive. The kind of person who's like smart and sexually confident.
And who thinks two people reading in the same room at the same time counts as doing something together. And you talk in a similar way, and you kind of feel like you're from the same from the same time in place. [But it's like even if you do every damn thing] to put yourself out there, you still might never meet them just due to luck. There's only so much you can control.
So, hopefully, you can at least get something out of the search, you know? Yeah, no, that's cool actually. If I can be honest, I don't really feel the right chemistry here But if I'm willing to tell you that then at least hopefully that means you'll believe me when I also say I really respect your honesty and what you're saying, and I genuinely wish you all the best in your search. Thanks, and yeah. You too.
Godspeed. I hope you find what you're looking for. I mean, that's why we're all here, right? (Music) love is not a running race if you want to lay me down, then be sweetly 'cause now you left me with the bitter taste I get so removed when you treat me like you do I'm so over you 'cause everything I do is no good for you I'm no good for you. Hi guys, I'm Natalia.

- Guess what? I tried (giggling) online dating. Oh, yes I did. I'm sure you won't be surprised that it did not work for me.
Why? I'm gonna tell you in a second, but the takeaway message is
online dating is contributing to the fall of Western civilization. On that note, this video is brought to you by Audible.
Audible is an amazing place to go. It's my favorite place
to go for audible books. You can learn about Western
civilization or dating or anything you want. All you have to do is go

Super awesome. Make sure to like this
video if you like it, subscribe to this channel and make sure you hit the little bell icon so you can get notifications
about all of my videos. Online dating did not go
well for many reasons. First, I think people thought I was lying when I said that I was me.
That's super awkward and the
topic for a whole other video. Second, people may not have
wanted to go out with me, which I get. You know, like life in a fish bowl, I'm really complicated
and I'm super outspoken, I make a weird amount of money. I get it, I'm not for everyone, I get it.
Third, people just may not
have liked my description of myself as someone who
enjoys X-Men, neuroscience, and Scotch, in that order. Not your thing, fine. Here's ultimately why online
dating just isn't my thing. (Bongos drumming) The number one reason why online
dating did not work for me and possibly is contributing to the fall of Western civilization as we know it is that it is shopping for humans.
(Giggling) You're shopping for humans. You see a couple pictures of someone and you decide whether or
not you wanna buy that human or rent them. Also, not judging you
if this is your thing. For me, it started to feel really creepy.
When someone posts a profile
and picture of themselves, they are carefully curating
the image that they want you to see of them. Online dating makes it so that we're effectively sales people, trying to post the things
that will make you swipe on the life that I think
you want to see me having. It's not natural. I mean, it's not.
It's not the way that
humans have ever interacted in like the history of homo sapiens. In real life, you don't swipe on people. Swiping is dehumanizing. It reduces us to objects.
You are shopping for humans. (Bongos drumming) The second reason that online
dating really didn't work for me is that most, many,
most, all, many, most men that I saw pictures of
are not the kind of men, based on those pictures,
that I would be interested in and I don't think they would
be interested in me either. I saw a lot of pictures of men on yachts. I saw a lot of pictures of
men posing with what appeared to be like legit strippers.
A lot of pictures in Vegas. A lot of dudes with beer and
all different kinds of alcohol. A lot of cigar pictures. A lot of shirtless, oiled up, waxed chests and if this is your idea of like the kind of guy you wanna go out with, there are plenty of them out there.
Knock yourself out. For me, it's not really my jam. Where, where pray tell, are
all the poets and the dreamers, and the guys who are like
into Indie Rock and Sci-Fi, and like documentary films, and drinking coffee late at night, and talking about philosophy? Where are those guys? Scrolling through hundreds
and possibly thousands of pictures of people who were
not that guy was not my idea of a way to spend time and while cold beer and waxed chests don't
directly contribute to the fall of Western civilization, I put it in here because
it's funny and it's true. (Bongos drumming) The third reason that online
dating is contributing to the fall of Western
civilization or the second, if you're paying attention
and you're a stickler, is the fact that it
provides too many options.
Dating apps make you feel
like there's always someone out there who's just a little bit better than the person that
you're dating right now or the possibility exists. You can't be present with
the person you're sitting across the table from if
you're constantly thinking about what else is out there. It's hard to be content when you know that there are thousands and thousands of other possibilities for you and you're much less likely to
give someone a second chance if you would rather just think like, I'll just login and start swiping and I'll find someone better. Many sociological studies on dating apps in particular have shown
that we are much less likely to stick it out if we're
constantly assuming that there are other options out there.
I mean, is this why so many
people are getting divorced? I don't know, maybe this
is contributing to the fall of Western civilization. (Bongos drumming) That's like liquor on the
rocks, sex over dating. No, ice cream on pie, over pie. Sex over dating.
The fourth reason that I think
online dating is contributing to the fall of Western civilization is that it is encouraging people
to have sex instead of date. Sex is healthy and fun and important and the sex between
committed people is super, duper awesome. It's something I believe in. I always have and I always will and I don't begrudge
people who want to have sex rather than date.
A lot people say that online
dating has allowed women to kind of level the playing
field when it comes to sex. We get to be in charge and
we get to seek out people and we get to have pleasure, but for young men in
this space in particular, we're finding that it's
kind of becoming a way for men to have their cake and eat it too. Women indeed can end up
wracking up sex partners like men do, but women and men are not
biologically the same. I mean, sure, men and women
both need and deserve sex, but the complexity of sex is
different for men and women by in large.
Women connect differently,
women react differently, women are raised in the
patriarchy differently than men who are raised in the patriarchy. While online dating is
something that I once tried to use for more options, ultimately it didn't work for me because it had too many options. My options were to ignore my instincts. I rejected that.
My options were to view
people like puppies in a pet store window. I rejected that too. My options were to get back out there and go have sex with some strangers. I rejected that.
My options were also to
consider the online dating pool and an open, infinite,
wonderful place of exploration and freedom and liberation. I did not find those things
and so I rejected it. I know that online dating
is the wave of the present and possibly the wave of the future and I'm very grateful that
I only went on a few dates and didn't have sex on any of them. Just in case you're wondering, the conventional ways of
meeting people still exist.
You can meet them at school
or while doing hobbies. You can meet them at a
synagogue or at church, or any number of places that
people congregate in person. Art museums, political
rallies, coffee shops, some of my favorite places to hang out, but no one was looking for me there. Different story.
It might take some extra work
to meet people in person, but you may ultimately thank yourself and so will all of Western civilization. Thank you again to Audible

Hey girls! Tiffany dawn here, and I have
pulled my hubby James back into this video. He's so kind. He's on his lunch
break for work right now, eating and I asked him if he would just kind of
chat with us. So um basically this video is for girls like me, who when I was in
high school and college, I had these- and most of my 20s- I had these like three
questions: Number one, why am I still single? Number two, why doesn't anybody ask me out? And number three, why doesn't anybody
like me? And I just felt kind of like left out, like all my girlfriends---
Do you mean by guys, right? Oh yeah.
Sometimes people say that, but what they really
mean is the guys that I think I like, don't like me back. Right, exactly. So
we're gonna talk about that. Today I have four tips for you, and James is gonna add
his two cents in, and these four tips are just things that can maybe help, like if
you're kind of feeling stuck, like nobody's--no guys are interested in you,
these are four things that you can try that might actually help.
So tip number
one is be open, like be friendly. I. Realized that I kind of was just walking
around with this like stone cold face toward guys. And really I was so scared
of rejection that I-- like if I liked a guy, there was no way I was gonna let him
know I was interested by my actions, because I was so scared of being
rejected and I just couldn't handle that.
And so I just kind of was mean or like
cold toward them. And I remember like in later years actually, this guy who I'd
actually liked back then, we'd gotten reconnected. And as we were talking, he was like, "ou know I almost asked you out back then," or, "I wanted to ask you out back then." And I was like, "What? Why didn't you?" And he goes, "I didn't think there was any
chance you'd say yes, based on like how you treated me." I was like, Ohhh... That's such a good story.
I feel like this happens all the time
between guys and girls and it's kind of like this emotional game of chicken. It's
like, "Well I I would like to ask her out but I really don't want to be rejected
so I'm just gonna like observe and maybe I can like see the signs if she likes me." Yeah it takes a lot for a guy to like, to ask a girl out. Guys hear stories
about rejections, guys have probably been rejected a couple times, like we're
scared. So the friendlier you can be, the
easier it's gonna be for us to be like, talking to her, talking to her, and, "Do you want to gout for ice cream?" You sort of have to like squeeze it out.
Yeah I don't
think girls realize that enough, like how scary it is for guys, because
like guys seem like they have no emotion sometimes. That's not true; we just don't
know how to express it. Yeah so I think that's really important
to know. And I found like the more approachable we can be in our demeanor--
like even ask some of your honest friends, "How do I come across to
strangers or to guys? Like am I coming across like the mean person, or am I like
smiling and like open to talking with them, and like easier to talk to?" -- I think
that just makes it a whole lot easier for a guy to work up the courage to ask
you out.
Yes okay yes. So tip number two is expand your horizons a little bit. So
I always had like this certain kind of guy that I wanted to go out with. I like
I wanted to go out with a guy who was six feet tall -- not a James look-alike by the way.
Well in some ways; I mean you have dark hair and dark eyes which I wanted, and like
tan-ish or olive skin, you know, but you're not 6'3", which is what I wanted. Nope. It'd be nice if I was. Well it's kind of nice that you're not, because like guys I dated who
were over six foot tall, like trying to kiss them was like -- it put a kink in my neck.
That's why you go to the chiropractor so much now! It makes sense! And I wanted him to play guitar -- nope -- and be a worship leader and like a youth leader and stuff like
that, so I definitely was looking for like this very specific type of guy. When
I was in my 20s, I was like: Wow I'm going to all these different events and I'm
meeting all these different guys and I. Keep coming home and saying there's no
good guys out there. But what I'm really saying is there's no good guys who are
6'3" and play guitar and lead worship.
And that might have been true that there were no single ones left. But like I was way too narrow in my focus and I really needed to
expand my horizons. But I think it's easy to like narrow our options so much
and be looking for something so particular that we pass by amazing guys. Now it's
important to be attracted to the person, absolutely,
but like you can be attracted to more than one type of person.
Mm-hmm. That is
true. And I know even one of my one of my friends who's single is, I think most
people would agree, is a pretty attractive human being. And all of
Tiffany's friends want to meet him.
That's so true. But they
don't know him at all! They just see his picture on social media and they're like, "Yeah! We want to meet him!" But they really, they have no idea what he's like. Yea, like it's very shallow.
Like guys do the same thing. But like, you can't-- you're not truly gonna be
attracted to someone until you know them.
Personal interaction is so important.
It's important for girls to realize too, like we get frustrated with guys
because we're like, "Why do you guys just go after the cute, popular girls? Like
it's not fair, why isn't anyone interested in me?" But girls we do the
same thing to guys so many times! Well I. Think every person is sort of inclined
to do that on some level. That's true. And it's just something to be like really careful about and just aware of.
I realized I. Didn't even notice other guys in the
room if they didn't meet my mold and I. Had to open my eyes and literally like
open my peripheral vision to be able to notice these other guys, and even get to
know them. And I'm so glad I did because I really like being married to him.
Yeah.
Still can't play guitar. Tip number three is like go out in places where you can
kind of meet more people. Different kinds of people, yeah. Like
get involved in different circles.
Because I think it's really easy to just
like want to spend all your time- fill it all with girls nights. And that's fine,
but if that's all you do with your time, where do you expect to meet guys? Yeah Or get to know guys. We do not attend girls nights. Yeah.
That's true. You have man cave nights. I'm
always like, "Where are all the guys?" They're all together, all the good guys. If you find
one, there's a pack of them! I'm like convinced of it.
But yeah there is some
truth to that. So I think it's important to like actually like get to know
different people, like hang out with friends from work, hang out with from
church, hang out with friends from school, and just like, you know, bring a
girlfriend with you and go and just join them, and get to know new people and
other circles. And kind of - I don't know - it also expands your horizon. Try to
make - try to regularly meet new people.
Many of them you won't connect with and
that's totally fine, but you'll probably end up making some new friends. Yeah and that can be really scary for someone who isn't an extrovert. Like James is 100% extroverted. I'm not.
"Whoo, new people!" Yeah for real though. It's like the Energizer Bunny. But for me like I don't love just meeting new people all the
time; it's super draining and nerve-wracking. But if
you plan for it.
Yes. And you don't do it super regularly, and you just do it like
once every other week. And if it has like structure. So like I would join - I
remember joining this Bible study for a while and it was like with a different
church and I had a couple of friends who went, so I went.
And I was
very clear, like I'm only here for this session, and I was very honest with
myself and with my friends: I was only there to meet any cute guys there. I shouldn't
say just cute. It was true at the time. But to meet guys, I should have - I should
have been just guys - yeah.
And then tip number four is a surprising one,
which is: you can ask the guy out. That's totally fine. We are fine with that. I speak for the entire male race.
Not really, but sort of.
You know it's a great if a girl asks you out. If she like doesn't say, "Would you
like to go on a date with me," but more like, "Hey you do want to like study
sometime or do you want to get some coffee," you know. You're like, "Oh they do like me!" It's great. It's like a less subtle clue that they can start to pick up on.
Yeah, yes, we don't do subtle. Yeah I. Definitely speak for the male race there.
And I think some sometimes girls get kind of hung up on the idea of, "But the
guy has to pursue me." Yeah but being pursued is like something you see over a
period of time, like months. Like if you look back over the last four months and
you don't feel like you're being pursued, that's one thing.
Who asks who on the
first date? Not a big deal. Yeah and really like I think both people
should also be pursuing each other. Excuse me as I'm hiccuping. If only one person is pursuing, even if it is the guys, that's gonna be a miserable relationship.
So
those are our four tips. In closing, let me just say, like,
girls if you feel this way, there are so many girls who feel this way. I want you
to know you're not alone. And guys - yeah - on a serious note.
Cause like I think I
think it's easy to think we're the only ones left. Like I'm the only one who's
never been asked out, and the only one who's never had a boyfriend, like what's
wrong with me? And you're not the only one. There are so many girls who feel
that way and I personally know like several of them, and they're amazing
girls and they are in that same place. And it's tempting to ask like, "What am I
doing wrong?" And I think if you're doing these four tips and you're open to, you
know, what God has for you, and not kind of hiding in fear, I think you're
fine.
And also that like, your worth can't come from guys, which sounds so
cheesy and church talk-y, but like truly, it's real. Like even being married I
always thought you know being married, like then I'll have this husband who
like helps me find all my worth and he like loves me so much. And even though
James is a wonderful husband and does love me so much, like when I try to look
to him for my sense of like worth and who I am, it like falls short. Like he
cannot give that to me.
I have to find that in God. And I know that it's hard to
hear when you're single cause you're like, yeah but it's easier at least when
you're married. And yeah it's nice to be married and I love that like affirmation
from him, but we - at the core it cannot fill any part, any void in me. And so I
think like right now, like finding that in Christ is huge, even though it sounds
really cheesy, it's huge.
Yeah and I. Think all of us are sort of on different
timelines and no one timeline is better or worse than another. You know sometimes we think, "It'd be so cool to marry someone, you know, your highschool
sweetheart!" And that is wonderful. But also for people like Tiffany and I
who met in our late 20s, it's been wonderful for us too.
And we think, "If
we dated in high school, we would have fought for like ten years!" We would not have even lasted a day. And like we got to have so many adventures in the meantime,
like you got to travel around South America for a year and like build a tree
house air B&B kind of thing and like go on like work on a sheep farm in
Patagonia and like all that. And Tiffany got to travel and tour, and you know that
yeah, you know we just had amazing experiences in our single years with
God. So I just want to encourage you like, don't feel like you're being left out,
even though it feels like that sometimes.
Um I really think that this season can also be a gift even though it's hard. So I have some videos linked down below
about that. One is what I wish I knew when I was single, and one is to all the
single girls, and they kind of share my own experiences more with this. So girls
I hope that those four tips can help in some way, and that this can encourage you.
Comment down below if there's anything you would add to this list and we will
see you again soon. Love you girls! Bye. Bye..
- So I have these two friends and they say they're just friends but I think there might be a little bit more going on. So today, I'm gonna help
them answer the question, "Why aren't we dating?" 'Cause I think they should be dating. I think they'd be perfect for each other. - [Woman] I feel like we
should've talked before this.
- [Host] What could possibly go wrong? Thanks for being here guys. We're gonna start this off with having each introduce one another. - This is Zach. And Zach has good taste in sushi.
- Okay. (Laughing) This is Ella. She's a bad ass bitch. - How did you guys become friends? - Ella and I went to college together but we didn't know each other in college.
It was like a lot of
like missed, we almost-- - Yeah, we almost-- - And then finally I
got her on this project. - You know what's funny though? Back in college, I always thought that you were like this really cool person that would never, like,
be friends with me. Like I remember going
to a Going Away party and I was like oh man we get to go
to Zach's party? - Zach's party? - Wait really-- - Yeah. - You were the coolest one? - I don't know.
- How would you describe your friendship? - We eat dinner. We go to movies. We have a lot of the same interests. - Totally.
- We have the same friends now. - The beginning of our friendship was definitely rooted in-- - Work. - Work and like we both love work. - Yeah we both love working.
- We're crazy people. - [Ella] Yeah. Work all the time. - Ella's someone that I can like share anxieties with.
- I've definitely called
you and been like-- - Yeah. - I'm upset about this thing. - So you've relied on each other already. - Mhm.
- Ella. - Yeah. - If tomorrow, Zach
started dating someone else would your first reaction
be to like that person? - I don't know. I think so.
- Yeah? - Yeah. I would say like, she better be really great. And if she wasn't I would be like a little bit judgmental. - So Zach, same question.
If tomorrow Ella showed up and she says I have a new boyfriend how would you feel about that? - Thinking back on the
people that you've like-- - Sort of dated. - [Zach] Sort of dated over the past. And I feel like I have been super harsh and judgmental. - So, as friends and close friends, you hang out a lot and are vulnerable with each other, have you ever, in your life ever looked at the other and been like okay, okay.
I could, okay. - I mean it's like, it's a weird thing like when you have like-- (fast paced talking) - I think, definitely
thought about it, for sure. - And Zach? - Yeah. - Let's say this is the last time you ever speak to one another because something happens and you can't.
- If we were both gonna die, and I've told you this before, but I would tell you that I love you. And that you mean a lot to me. And that you've made my life a lot better. - Oh my god.
Well, I love you too Zach. And you make my life better. - Awe thanks. - This is so intense.
I'm sweating, don't touch me. - Very nice. Look how lovely that is. - My hands are like clammy.
This is, why? - I don't know. I can't control how your body reacts to your emotions. Actually, what we're gonna do now is we're gonna let you
two go on a romantic date. - Are you planning the date? - No, you are.
I'm gonna let you guys do it. Do something you would
enjoy doing together but I want you to experience it like you would on a date with someone you cared about. This is just for a test. Then you're gonna come back, tell us how it went, and tell us what you feel about it.
- I'm here to pick up Ella for our date. Yo. I know, I don't know how I did that. Are you excited? - Yeah.
I'm excited this is a surprise. - Oh yeah. I actually, I'm normally really awful and stressed out about planning dates. But I thought of one very quickly.
And I'm very excited. (Chuckles) - Let's see what happens. - [Zach] Ooh. - Looks so good.
- All right, we just finished dinner. - Yup. - I was lovely. - It was great.
- So I wanted to get cookies but cookie place was closed. But I think this place has pool. - The one good thing about your date is it has multiple parts to it. - Cheers.
- Cheers.
- We just came here for pool but Ella was like man what I'd really love to play is that
basketball game. - That basket ball game. And they have it. - I have to take off my shawl.
- Blame the shawl. Ella just beat me. - Finally won. One game.
Zach scored on himself. - You don't need to tell people that. I just dropped Ella off. It was a really good date.
You know, I don't know how she felt. I think we had a good time. We'll see how we feel in the morning. - Are you ready? - Yeah.
- Okay, so we're back. You guys went on your date. You had a wonderful time, I assume. Why don't you tell us, how did the date go? - It was a pretty good date.
- I'll tell you that like
from a date perspective I was like man what a effortless date. - [Host] You each get two pieces of paper. One is a blue smiley face that means, you know what, friendship is the best
thing for us no matter what. One is a red heart which means, I wouldn't be opposed
to going on a date again like that with each other.
I would't be opposed to the idea that maybe we could be more than friends. So, I'm gonna spin you away. - No. No.
- Put the piece of paper in the front that you would rather choose. And we'll do this. And we're gonna have you turn in five four three two one. - No! - You're question was would I be opposed to going on a date, like no, it was fun.
I had a fine time. - I wanna just say like, I wanna be friends. - Yeah-- - I would do that again. - But to be honest, like, this is how I'm happy and this is where I think Ella and I-- - I think this is good.
Yeah, I think this is great. - Great. And then I'll just keep
this sort of bopping over your heads in between just in case you ever wanna snatch it. You know, in case you ever
change your mind like, damn I want this.
- I just wanna say I did not know what was gonna happen when I came here..
- So I have this pair of friends that say that they're just friends, but I think there's a little bit more romance going on underneath and they're not being honest about it. So today, I'm gonna put 'em to the test and make them answer the
question "Why aren't we dating?" 'Cause I think they should be dating. They seem perfect for each other. They're two best friends,
I'm gonna make 'em date.
What could possibly go wrong? Guys, thanks so much for being here. You look lovely. (Girl chuckling)
- Thank you. - Why don't we start out,
why don't you introduce him and say something nice about him? And then you'll introduce her and say something nice about her.
- Oh God, this is Eli, and, (sighing) he's, um, he's nice. (Laughing)
- What? - This is Daysha, and she really cares about here hair. - He was my intern once. Got pretty much most of what I wanted, so.
- I always got you what you wanted. - Ooh! - [Eli] No, no. (Chuckling) - So, uh, we're gonna move on to round two where we talk about each
other a little more. What do you guys have in common? - I think that we have in
common that we love to bicker.
He loves to start with me, so-- (laughing) - I'll say this, I like Daysha 'cause she's, like, real, and upfront, and she's very expressive and passionate about what she does. - I think I like that we're
friends because, like, I like that we have honest conversations, and that probably leads to the bickering, but I think that if you can
truly bicker with someone, you put all of your emotions out there, they're on the table,
you're not hiding anything, like, we are who we are. - Let's say in a world
where you're dating, what would be good about
the two of you dating? - The honesty, I guess. We wouldn't really hide
anything from each other, I'd like to hope.
- Yeah, I think overall I would be upfront and I would like to think she would be, so that would be probably
the most endearing quality. - What would be a bad aspect
of the two of you dating? - Uh, you would nag, and just-- - I do not nag. - [Eli] You just break
me down emotionally. - There is equal nagging on.
When I try to be nice to him, when I try to give him a
compliment or do anything, he starts somethin'. And when I'm like, "Why
can't you appreciate the fact "that I was just tryin' to be nice to you? "This is why I gotta clap in your face "because--" (chuckling) - We're gonna be that terrible
couple at the Applebee's that just keeps fighting over
what we want as an appetizer. Like, that essentially would be us. - Let's say that this moment right here is the last time you can
ever talk to each other.
What's the one thing that you would want the
other person to know before never seeing them again? - Man, uh, oh, this is deep. - (Laughing) Yeah.
- Oh, man. - Well, Daysha, I think you're an amazing woman, and you have inspired me
to do a lot of great things that I didn't think I
was capable of doing, and I want to thank you for that. - Eli, stop it.
(Laughing) - Are you getting teary eyed? - No, I'm not. - I am, I don't know what's
wrong with the both of you. That was the sweetest
thing I've ever heard. Our intern's clutching his heart.
Come on, guys. Let these emotions flow over you. - Um, I think I would say, Eli, I truly value our friendship. There's no one else that
I feel like I can be as honest and open with.
Now I feel like we're exchanging
vows, like-- (laughing) - Because you're such a
shippable pair of people, I'm not the only producer making a video about these two right now. You're actually in a video with Zach where single people
live married for a week, and tonight you're going salsa dancing. So we're gonna let you
go do salsa dancing, we're gonna see some of that footage, and then we're gonna
have you back tomorrow, hear how it went, and then talk a bit more
about you to as friends. Sound good? - Sounds great.
(Chuckling) - Great.
Let's all end with a nice shimmy. - Ahh. Work it. - Ooh.
- Daysha. What a shimmy. - Okay, so we're on our way to salsa. Woo! How are you feelin'? - I'm hoping any ounce of my Puerto Ricanness
will come out today, 'cause I suck, but whatever to make bae happy, it's fine.
You know, whatever.
- Aww, he's so sweet. - Ahh! So Eli just asked me if he's gonna sweat, and I told him that I
hope he gets really big, nasty, sweaty pit stains, because he wants to check out
other women in front of me. - Why are you getting so jealous? - I'm not jealous, but like-- - I'm with you, girl, what
are you talkin' about? - It's been day two, don't touch me. - My grandfather played in a salsa band.
My dad, like, was a championship dancer. And now I'm gonna look like a jackass. - (Laughing) So Eli just finished
his first salsa class. How do you feel?
- Oh, my God.
- I feel alive! Oh my God, I'm a salsa fucking machine! It was, like, one of the hardest and intense things I've ever done. I was getting, like, so frustrated that I just wanted to quit. - [Daysha] But you didn't quit. I was proud of you for that.
- And then she added something else, and then she added something else. I was literally, like, like a fetus learning to walk. - You guys went on a super
romantic date, obviously, and now we're here to
find out how it went. So Daysha, why don't you start out.
How did the night start? - So we had a nice, brisk walk to the dance studio together. Uh-- (chuckling) Look at his excitement! - Oh, God. - Class started. It was a salsa class.
- Ooh. - Yup. - Your favorite?
- Uh, nope. - Not necessarily.
(Daysha laughing) - It was very funny to see
Eli try and use his hips, because they're like a box that just kind of moves left and right.
- How do you feel about your hips? - It was just stressful. I mean, yeah, I knew I was gonna be
terrible at it, you know? I mean, I essentially
looked like a drunk t-rex that really had to go pee. - Sounds like you two
had a wonderful time. We have a really fun way to end this high-stakes, suspenseful show that you guys have created for us.
Each of you get one sheet of red and one sheet of blue paper. The red has a heart,
blue has a smiley face. I'm going to spin you away, and I want you to pick and
put in front the one you want. So red would mean like, "Oh yeah, "maybe there's some feelings here." Blue is, "Sorry,
everybody's gonna feel blue "because we're just friends." So I'm gonna give you
five seconds to decide, and I'm gonna pull these chairs around.
And five, four, three, two, one. - Ahh!
(Daysha laughing) - I span Eli too far. - (Chuckling) - So this ultimately
doesn't decide anything. You guys are gonna have
to watch Zach's video, single people get married for a week, to see if maybe the
relationship goes further than just today.
Right now you're just friends, but there's still time to change that. - I think the only
difference between today and the end of the week will probably be-- - You know what? I ain't got time for you. Lucky that you're far away-- - What? I can't even dance with you! - We've had a lot of fun, and today I think we've answered why aren't we dating for these two. We'll see you next time right here in the same darn place.
- Bye! - (Chuckling) Good job. (Chuckling) - (Chuckling) I can't stand you..
-Somebodys hungry!Me. -Ooo, you know what? Lets try
that new place on Ludlow. -Great! They deliver right? -No, I mean like, actually go to
the restaurant. -Thats crazy! You dont want to
leave? -Yeah, why? Its beautiful out!
Oh, we can get our steps in! -I dont know, Im comfy.
-Is there a reason you dont
want to go out?
-Yes. A very specific one. -So, on the subway yesterday, I
read this GQ article over
someones shoulder. They were scrolling a little
quickly, but I think I got the
gist.
-How is this important? -Hanna, this concerns the fabric
of our very lives. The article
states that most successful relationships happen between
people of similar
attractiveness. -So?
-So, we are fundamentally at
risk here. -What are you talking about,
Paul?
-Allow me to explain.
-Ahh! That's not for yet! Ok, and, God. I took an average
of our profile picture likes,
factored in comments, loves, sads I was the only one with
sads, that hurt but the results show that you
are 1.62 Points hotter than me
on the 10 scale. -What are you 12 years old? None
of this matters. I think youre
a 10.
-Then how do you explain this? Ah!! Ahh! I DIDNT EVEN DRAW
THAT ONE?!!! Anyhoo, you could see why its
statistically dangerous for us
to leave the apartment. -Ok, so whats the plan? Are we
just gonna never leave?
-Oh, thank God. Im so glad that you said it. -Paul, I was joking.
This is
stupid. -What's stupid about isolating
ourselves? Anything we can get
out there we can get in here! -Ok, so, um what if I want to go
out and I want to go dancing? -Easy! Alexa! Play dance music!
-Playing Dan Music. Whos Dan?! Alexa stop! Whos
Dan?! -Dan is my dad! Stop yelling at
my stuff. -Thank God.
I thought it was
someone who was objectively more
attractive than I am. -Oh, hey dude!
-Hey! Thanks for letting me
borrow this. -Oh yeah!
-Yeah! Later, Cory!
-Alright, later. -What a poignant example of
exactly what Im talking about.
-What? Your math says I should
be with Cory? Come on. Maybe! But its not about
Cory, its about every Cory!
When I look at that piece of meat, I just see a number and guess what its way
higher than mine. -Paul, this is ridiculous. You
think Im just going out with
you for your looks? -Um, I did! But even if its not
just about looks, I mean Im a
good guy.
But Im not great. There are way better guys, and
some of those guys have abs.
Fantastic abs. -Oh my God. Paul, our
relationship is so much more
complex than that.
It's not like I'm gonna go out and bump into some random hot guy and dump
you. Look, you make me grow in
ways that I cant explain. I am gonna get ready to go to the
restaurant. I hope that youll
come with me.
-Hey, man. Its Cory.
-Hi, Cory. -You know, from earlier?
-I know who you are, Cory.
-I couldnt help but overhear
your conversation with Hanna.
-Okay -Look, I just went through the
same thing with a girl who was
way more attractive than I was.
So dont sell yourself short. I
mean look man, you got a great
set of abs. -I purchased these at a Party
City. -Oh, um.
Come here. Get in here. My man, you are rock hard. -Thats real.
-Thought so..
- She's gonna love you. - Yeah, I hope so (laughs) - Of course. - I mean she doesn't really have a choice. - (Woman laughs) Hey! - Hey - How are you? - It's good to finally meet you.
- Hey, good to meet you too. - Tom, Sara. Sara, Tom - You guys want something from the bar? - Yes please
- Yeah sure - Two vodka sodas - Yup (giggles)
- Alright - It's so good to finally
meet your boyfriend - Oh, but no he's not my boyfriend. - But didn't you bring him
to your sister's wedding? - Yeah, I mean we're
friends and we hook up and we go on dates,
but we're not "dating".
You know, there's no pressure. - Um, sure yeah. - Dad, I want you to meet my really, really special friend, Rachel. - It's so nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you - It's not official. - No. - Will you move in with me? - Oh my God yes of course!
- Yes? Yes
- Yes! - Oh my gosh, I can't wait to
have a roommate that I bang. - Maybe it is your fault for a change.
- Ooh wow! Oh it's my fault? - Excuse me, can you and your girlfriend please keep it down? - Hey, she's not my
girlfriend, she's my bestfriend who I want to spend the
rest of my life with. (Cheery, elevator music) (wedding music) - Tom, it's meant so much to me that you've been able to keep it so chill the past four years. - I can't wait to live this long life of low commitment hanging out, only when like work isn't too crazy. - (Laughs) - Okay.
Well, I now pronounce
you husband and wife. - (React in disgust) - We're raising her as friends. - We live together. - And are married.
- And share everything in
our lives with each other. (Christmas music) (dramatic, piano music) (woman cries) - Ms. Jackson I am so sorry for your loss. - It's fine, we weren't even that serious.

The title tells you pretty much everything
you need to know about Dating Naked, a reality show that aired on VH1 between 2014 and 2016. Singles flew to tropical locales, stripped
nude, then went on jet-skiing and horseback-riding dates in their birthday suits. But while the premise got a lot of buzz, the
ratings didn't, and the show was canceled after only three seasons. Here are some of the issues that left Dating
Naked in the dumps.
Feeling the sting The tropical locales where Dating Naked filmed
were home to swarms of mosquitoes. When the show first premiered, host Amy Paffrath
told USA Today about shooting in Panama: "The bugs are insane. We have all been eaten alive. We've tried everything.
[...] My remedy is wearing pants." As for the contestants who couldn't wear pants,
Amy said, "They've got bug bites in interesting places." If itchy welts below the belt aren't bad enough,
imagine getting a sunburn there too. Season 2 star Kerri told the Tampa Bay Times
that her co-star Chris fell victim to, quote, "Gnarly burns [on his rear]." Parental guidance Parents were completely appalled by Dating
Naked, and it was about more than just the nudity. The prime-time television show was rated TV-14,
a fact that the Parents Television Council watchdog group called "downright disgusting." They pointed out that graphic conversations
about everything from genital jewelry to sexual encounters were common on the show. Meanwhile, conservative group One Million
Moms argued, "Even though the frontal body parts are blurred
out, showing so much skin leaves nothing to the imagination." Both groups hit VH1 in the wallet by pressuring
advertisers to boycott the show.
And it worked... Pulling out It wasn't long before advertisers started
dropping like flies. Mondelez, the parent company of brands like
Oreo and Chips Ahoy, claimed to have had no idea their ads were even running on the show. According to AdAge, a representative for the
company reportedly told the PTC, "We have directed our media partner to ensure
that we do not run advertising for any of our brands on this program in the future." Other brands who reportedly pulled out included
Dial and Right Guard.
PTC President Tim Winter said, "By the end of the season more than 90 percent
of the show's corporate advertisers were gone - proving once again that without advertising
dollars, television networks cannot afford to keep harmful content on the air." The infamous cam' Dating Naked's cameras caught a lot of skin
- and even went so far as to employ a " cam" during activities such as kayaking or
bicycling. While it's not a complete surprise, many found
it distasteful. PopSugar's Maggie Pehanick pointed out, "Whether horseback riding, paddleboarding,
or riding a bike, we were exposed to the most violating of camera angles." Turns out not everyone wants to see "it"
from every angle. The " wedding" Dating Naked wrapped Season 1 with a clothing-optional
wedding.
"Duh-nuh-duh-nuh" But it turns out the ceremony wasn't legally
binding. Despite its billing as a wedding by VH1, "bride"
Ashley told Entertainment Weekly it was a commitment ceremony, saying, "I don't think you need a document [...] To
say that you care for someone." "Groom" Alika didn't even tell his parents
about the big day, claiming, "My mom's really Christian. She'll be like, 'You're going to go hell! You need to pray to Jesus tonight!'" Too nude for comfort Jessie Nizewitz, who appeared in Season 1,
sued VH1's parent company, Viacom, for a whopping $10 million in 2014, after her uncensored
thing accidentally snuck into prime time television. While the show is all about nude dating, contestants'
privates are typically blurred.
But Nizewitz's parts appeared for a split
second during a bout of wrestling. A New York judge ruled in 2015 to dismiss
her case and even required her to pay Viacom's legal fees. According to Entertainment Weekly, Viacom
claimed that she'd signed a contract stating that: "She would participate and be filmed fully
[and] that the footage could be exhibited and distributed without restriction." The show gets dumped While Dating Naked hasn't aired on VH1 since
2016, the network never came out and said it was canceled. Instead, VH1 President Chris McCarthy implied
that it didn't fit with his channel's plans for the future.
McCarthy told Deadline in 2017, "We would like the opportunity at some point
to reinvent it, but for right now we felt the shows and assets that we have made more
sense as we head into the year." Ratings bomb Despite all the drama surrounding Dating Naked,
