| 0:00.0 | What pattern am I repeating over and over and over again in my love life that keeps causing me pain, |
| 0:07.0 | that keeps attracting me to the game players? Oh, What do when you feel like playing games with someone actually works. |
| 0:34.0 | Or at the very least, it works better than healthy communication. |
| 0:39.0 | One of my Love Life Club members sent in a question in the last few days and I thought it was really, really interesting. |
| 0:47.0 | She said, I've been reading some relationship books before being exposed to the love life club. |
| 0:52.0 | I personally identify more with the open |
