English transcript

I don't know if I ain't have any game or if she was nervous

or like vice versa and like neither one of us really kind of…

It was just, you know…

I feel like this is something that gets misconstrued.

Okay.

Okay.

Publicly.

Let's clear it up.

So…

No, it's not that you didn't have game.

I was 14 years old.

I was not allowed to talk to boys.

Yeah, that does make a difference.

That is the difference.

No, I'm putting you, yeah.

But did I think you were cute?

Absolutely.

Mm-hmm.

I also heard you had a no-athletes rule.

That is true.

So, tell me about that.

A very disrespectful comment also on my part.

It's so…

Okay.

Okay.

Thank you.

No, how?

That's really nice of you to straighten that out.

Why is that disrespectful?

I had very textbook…

Maybe misconceptions.

I kind of framed like movie plots.

Movie plot ideas of athletes.

The jock stereotype.

I was a theater nerd.

So, I think I was protecting my peace and just…

I don't know.

The teacher, it was an activity one day in class.

And she said, write down what you would look for.

And it was in capital letters.

Like, God is funny.

It was in capital letters.

And my parents found it way down the road.

I want to say like maybe eight years ago in an old box.

They were like, look at this.

And I'm like, oh, wow.

It's embarrassing.

But yeah, I don't know.

It was just an activity in class that she had us do.

But I definitely did say that.

And I think I did think that too.

This is another thing that gets misconstrued.

People, for some reason, think that in the past,

I've said that he wasn't my type.

Yeah.

But what I was saying was, I didn't think I was his type.

Yeah.

Because this was Mr. Cool.

And so I kind of sold myself short in thinking like,

oh, there's no way.

He must just like me as a friend.

So I won't even take it.

I'm glad.

She left the door open for me.

I'm glad I didn't get friendzoned.

I would have to say.

Every time I texted her a call, she picked up the phone after that.

After I was on full-course stress mode.

After that date, for sure.

Yeah, for sure.

We guys know that y'all in charge.

When I finally realized that that was the direction it was going in,

I verbalized that to him, that I was confused.

Because if there's one thing I'm going to do, I'm going to speak my mind.

But he looked at me, because he had come to my house for two weeks straight.

At the time, my parents' house.

So that didn't tip you off.

She thought I just had a plan A, she came to me with her brother.

Do you think I've been coming over here every night for the past two weeks

to play video games with your brothers?

I was like, oh, that makes a lot of sense.

I'm glad it all happened.

For sure.

It was a beautiful kind of reconnection at that point.
