It's a free question. 931 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:03,000 I said "Six to 12 months" and Stella was just, like, "ASAP." 932 00:48:03,120 --> 00:48:05,520 So it's just kind of, like... I said "The sooner the better." 933 00:48:05,640 --> 00:48:06,600 Wow. 934 00:48:08,160 --> 00:48:11,480 Sometimes I thought that, like, I was fully over-invested 935 00:48:11,600 --> 00:48:14,360 and I was showing too much because that's a general trait of mine. 936 00:48:14,480 --> 00:48:16,320 I'll just go all in. You know, I show all my cards. 937 00:48:16,440 --> 00:48:18,520 Like, "Here they are," you know. I never really hold back. 938 00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:20,440 That's kind of like a trait of mine. 939 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:22,520 But it was good to get the reassurance. 940 00:48:22,640 --> 00:48:23,880 But, yeah, we... 941 00:48:24,000 --> 00:48:25,200 Can I just point out something...

Yeah, so... 953 00:48:49,720 --> 00:48:52,600 But still, the stark contrast, I guess, from last week. 954 00:48:52,720 --> 00:48:54,000 How does that feel from your perspective? 955 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:56,440 (LAUGHS) Like I'm crazy. I'm trying to make sense of it. 956 00:48:56,560 --> 00:48:58,880 (LAUGHTER) A little bit confusing. 957 00:48:59,000 --> 00:49:00,960 You're not being crazy. But it's just... It's extreme. 958 00:49:01,080 --> 00:49:03,880 Isn't it? It's extreme and it has an emotional impact. 959 00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:05,160 No... I'm just wondering... 960 00:49:05,280 --> 00:49:06,960 how does that feel for you? No, it's good. 961 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:09,080 It shows that she's forward-thinking, 962 00:49:09,200 --> 00:49:10,360 she sees me in her future 963 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:13,120 and that she's, like, the real deal, you know. 964 00:49:13,240 --> 00:49:14,640 When you think about the future, 965 00:49:14,760 --> 00:49:17,520 is this something that you can see for the two of you? 966 00:49:17,640 --> 00:49:19,720 Yeah, yeah, definitely. Most definitely. 967 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:21,960 So, yeah, pretty...pretty confident. 968 00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:26,680 JOHN: This is interesting tonight that the first thing I noticed was 969 00:49:26,800 --> 00:49:28,040 the way you looked at him again...

Yeah. 976 00:49:45,080 --> 00:49:48,480 I would say I just fell back into my feelings, into my body, 977 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,120 into showing up for myself and then showing up for him, 978 00:49:51,240 --> 00:49:53,440 because if I don't show up for myself, I can't show up for him. 979 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:55,280 Yeah. And that's the main difference. 980 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,240 And ultimately, I think you had to get out of your head... 981 00:49:58,360 --> 00:49:59,840 Yeah. ..and into your heart... 982 00:49:59,960 --> 00:50:03,360 which is ultimately what we were trying to get you to do. 983 00:50:03,480 --> 00:50:05,080 Mmm.
