0:00.0	The following podcast is a deer media production.
0:06.4	Hey guys, welcome back to WeMiddaRakmi. It is December 15th, a Thursday. I say this every time,
0:13.5	so it feels like we just spoke. But luckily, I get to talk to you again because this is a bonus
0:21.1	episode and one that I've been very, very excited about. For a while, I've been gathering research,
0:28.2	all the things. And basically, what stemmed this episode, what made it come to be, was I was at
0:36.3	dinner with friends a few weeks ago. And we were talking about, you know, our husbands and whatever.
0:43.2	And one of my friends said, you got lucky because you waited. Like everyone was like complaining or
0:50.7	whatever. She said, you got lucky because you waited. And it really sank in for a second. I was like,
0:58.5	wait a second. She's right. I didn't rush to find someone when I was too young to really know
1:08.1	myself. I truly, truly waited for the right person, which is why I guess you could say, got lucky.
1:16.4	Or it just means like I held out, you know, because I knew that the best things come to those who

1:44.8	It's like a neutral age, right? But it is an age where I knew myself a little bit more. It is an
1:50.2	age where most of my partners, most of my friends were partnered off. And, you know, we didn't get
1:57.8	married until I was 31. And again, like that's still young for a lot of people. But for some people,
2:06.6	it's not. And for some people, it's on the older side. And I guess if you're listening to this,
2:11.9	whatever age you are, the point is that you could meet someone really at any age. But if you end up,
2:21.1	if you wait, and you truly get to know yourself, and you know what works and doesn't work, and
2:28.0	you're not just like with whoever's next to you in front of you, whatever it is. And you explore
2:33.7	what else is out there, then you could end up really, really happy. And what may seem like the happiest
