0:00.0	The following podcast is a dear media production.
0:38.2	Hey guys, welcome back to We met at Acme. I'm so excited for this solo episode today. We are going to be talking all about how to demand respect from people that you're dating. But it's not just people that you're dating. It's not just for single people. You need respect when you're in a relationship, when you're in a committed relationship, when you're in a marriage. Respect is so crucial. It is the
0:43.3	foundation that it's the glue. If the respect slips, the relationship slips. If the respect
0:50.7	isn't there when you're dating, you're just not going to end up with this person
0:55.2	because you need to have mutual respect for one another. So we're going to get right into
1:00.6	kind of how the hell that happens. And if it's something that happens naturally, if you have

1:12.1	You'll see just to check in with what's going on with me. It's actually Halloween today. So happy

1:48.7	this costume for more than a second and he literally ripped it off basically the second I put it on
1:53.8	him. But I took some photos of him in it and then I was like, F it. I'm returning this costume to
1:59.8	Amazon because he barely wore it and he hates it.
2:03.7	And he's not wearing it again.
2:05.2	And at this point, I didn't think that we had any Halloween party to go to.
2:08.5	So I returned this costume.
2:10.0	And all of a sudden, I get an email that after I actually returned the costume,
2:16.6	postage, Amazon, Whole Foods, whatever. I get an email from his
2:21.1	class that he has to dress in costume the next day. So I'm like, of course, this happens.
2:27.1	So I run to Party City. I'm not kidding, three costumes left. And two of them are girls' costumes. So I'm like,
