Lust Life Love ( Drama, Romance )
Transcript
00:00:30Sorry, I'm nervous.
00:00:41It's okay, no rush.
00:00:45Let's talk boundaries.
00:00:46I'm up for anything, no boundaries for me.
00:00:51What?
00:00:53Did you talk about your boundaries before this?
00:00:57Well, sort of, maybe, not really.
00:01:00Well, is there anything you don't want Juna to do?
00:01:05I don't know, I didn't really think about that.
00:01:08What about you, Juna? Is there anything
00:01:10you don't want Kali to do?
00:01:15No.
00:01:17What if she ignores you?
00:01:22That depends.
00:01:25So, you're okay if she pays no attention to you whatsoever?
00:01:33I didn't say that.
00:01:35The most important thing is to listen.
00:01:37So, if something doesn't feel right, then speak up.
00:01:55I'll be your anchor, keeping you warm, but cry, I'll be your light tonight, to stay by your side,
00:02:18and you'll be mine.
00:02:27In my big, beautiful world, I'll be your anchor, to keep you warm.
00:02:48Hey.
00:02:58Maybe we could have dinner next time.
00:03:00Only if I get to eat off you, too.
00:03:02Oh my God, you never want to eat off of me.
00:03:06Okay.
00:03:10Oh, wait, wait, three, three.
00:03:26I move in the way I know how to make myself come, and when I'm close,
00:03:31I pull Kali's hair and kiss her with abandon.
00:03:34I'm in ecstasy as my climax erases all thought, and I'm fully present with this couple I hardly know.
00:03:46It's strange, though, for the first time in ten years, in the end I feel nothing.
00:03:54Hmm.
00:03:57No.
00:03:59In the end, I'm still amazed that three people can come together in mutual desire and not fall apart.
00:04:20Haha. Nice.
00:04:30Hey, you're Veronica Willow, right? Veronica Williams.
00:04:34Yeah, do I know you?
00:04:35I'm a super fan of your blog.
00:04:37Oh, cool.
00:04:38Yeah, Sex With Intention, I love that.
00:04:41Thank you.
00:04:42It's about love and connection, right?
00:04:44Exactly, yeah.
00:04:46I can't believe I'm sitting here talking to you. This is nuts, right in front of my building.
00:04:51Can I take a selfie real quick?
00:04:53Sure.
00:04:54Just real quick.
00:04:55Okay.
00:04:56Get that for me?
00:04:57Okay.
00:04:58I'm gonna put that right on my Instagram.
00:04:59Okay, nice to meet you.
00:05:00I got like 38 followers. Hey, I'm so curious about that polyamory stuff.
00:05:04Yeah, a lot of people are.
00:05:06It's wild, right?
00:05:08Yeah, cool. If you have any questions, just leave a comment and I'll respond.
00:05:13I gotta say, you are so gorgeous right here, right now.
00:05:19Thank you.
00:05:21Do you ever think about doing porn or anything?
00:05:26No.
00:05:27No, have you?
00:05:30Joe.
00:05:39And up.
00:05:42And swan dog down.
00:05:46If you're warmed up, go ahead and do the upward facing dog.
00:05:52And breathe.
00:05:54From here, reach forward with the right hand.
00:05:57Reverse the warrior.
00:06:00And warrior two.
00:06:04From here, take a side angle pose.
00:06:07Elbow on the knee.
00:06:08Hand to the ground.
00:06:10Or take a bind.
00:06:12Just extend the energy through your fingers.
00:06:17See you in chemistry, baby.
00:06:20And warrior two.
00:06:24And warrior three.
00:06:30That's a fucking horse penis.
00:06:33Seriously.
00:06:43Come to chemistry with me on Saturday.
00:06:47Baby, now I feel about that.
00:06:49Well, hello, ladies.
00:06:51Hi.
00:06:52What are you doing today?
00:06:53Looking for something to dominate my wayward girlfriend with.
00:06:56Okay.
00:06:57Well, this is a beginner's crop.
00:07:00It's very lightweight.
00:07:01But if you're looking for something a little bit more intense, try this one.
00:07:09Oh, thank you.
00:07:10We're just browsing.
00:07:11Oh, okay.
00:07:12Well, let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
00:07:14Thank you.
00:07:16It's intense.
00:07:17Hmm.
00:07:19I don't know.
00:07:20I can handle it.
00:07:21I'm sure you could.
00:07:23But you don't want me to go.
00:07:25It's chemistry.
00:07:28I mean, no, it's cool.
00:07:31As long as you respect the boundaries.
00:07:34Of course.
00:07:37Of course.
00:07:38Who do you think I am?
00:07:39Thank you.
00:07:50You know, there are so many hot, sexy women who would love to play with us at chemistry.
00:07:57I'm going to tie you up so you can't move.
00:08:00Fuck you so hard.
00:08:01Don't think of anyone else but me.
00:08:10Fuck.
00:08:13Many of you have asked me, is true love a reason to be monogamous?
00:08:18Well, I can only speak for myself.
00:08:22There's no such thing as happily ever after.
00:08:25There's no such thing as the one.
00:08:28But if I can find a little bit of the one in each person I fall for, and they see a little bit of the one in me,
00:08:36what could be more romantic than that?
00:08:39Could you move your right arm a little that way?
00:08:43A little more.
00:08:49How's your mother?
00:08:51She's doing better.
00:08:53I think I'm going to visit her for spring break.
00:08:56My cousin has a new tour company in Tulum.
00:08:59I could make some extra money.
00:09:02What about your classes?
00:09:04Just for a few weeks, don't worry.
00:09:06I'll be back.
00:09:10Come to chemistry with me this Saturday.
00:09:13I wish I could, but I work the late shift.
00:09:17I need a break.
00:09:27You're beautiful.
00:09:29Like you.
00:09:39I love you.
00:10:09Veronica.
00:10:11Hey Teddy.
00:10:14Love the last blog post.
00:10:17Thank you.
00:10:18Thank you.
00:10:19This one's on us.
00:10:21Thank you.
00:10:22Enjoy.
00:10:40Hi.
00:10:46Dude, look at you.
00:10:51Corporate season.
00:10:57Each party holds the possibility of forgetting.
00:11:02Of losing and finding myself.
00:11:05Time and ego dissolve in the fantasy of costume.
00:11:09The anonymity of disguise.
00:11:12The spectacle of burlesque.
00:11:16It doesn't matter where we come from or what we do for a living.
00:11:20Past mistakes and future dreams are irrelevant.
00:11:25Here we are all animals.
00:11:27Alive and wanting.
00:11:29Connected by the need to survive.
00:11:31Seeking more or less the same thing.
00:11:36I long to forget my experience.
00:11:39And find my innocent self through another's wide hungry eyes.
00:11:45Are you ready for a show?
00:11:48I said are you ready for a show to whet your appetite?
00:12:02If you try.
00:12:04Try to tell me.
00:12:06That you want me.
00:12:08You know I'll walk away.
00:12:10If you start.
00:12:12Start to show me.
00:12:14That you know me.
00:12:16You know I'll never stay.
00:12:18I'm a mystery.
00:12:20Can't you see?
00:12:22I'm a mystery.
00:12:26There's no use.
00:12:28Trying to lure me.
00:12:29I'm so sorry.
00:12:31You just killed me.
00:12:33No I won't be taken.
00:12:35Why don't you look it off?
00:12:37Excuse me?
00:12:39The mess you made on her boot.
00:12:41The couple, they bumped into each other.
00:12:43It wasn't my fault.
00:12:45It's okay.
00:12:47I'm just playing.
00:12:54See you later?
00:13:02I know.
00:13:04I was scared.
00:13:25Have you been to chemistry before?
00:13:27No, my friend didn't tell me it was.
00:13:29This is kind of hard.
00:13:31What? Really?
00:13:33Where people have sex.
00:13:35So who's your friend?
00:13:37Oh, over there with the blue suit.
00:13:40That's Benton.
00:13:42He's my friend too.
00:13:44Really? Yeah.
00:13:46Wow, what a small world.
00:13:51I'm Veronica.
00:13:53Daniel.
00:14:00Daniel.
00:14:03Oh, so you're married?
00:14:06Yes.
00:14:08Is she here?
00:14:09No.
00:14:11What's your agreement?
00:14:12What do you mean agreement?
00:14:15Veronica.
00:14:17Hello.
00:14:19Well, have fun.
00:14:21You too.
00:14:22Maybe next time you can bring your spouse.
00:14:29Oh, my God.
00:14:59Wait.
00:15:16Wait.
00:15:17Dexter was so ridiculous today, like...
00:15:20What do you do now?
00:15:22I totally cut myself, so...
00:15:23Oh, no.
00:15:25Why is he always doing that?
00:15:27Oh.
00:15:28Oh, wait, watch this.
00:15:29He's so cute.
00:15:31No, no.
00:15:34Do you think that's funny?
00:15:37That's not funny.
00:15:38He just broke that glass.
00:15:41Did you say anything to him about that?
00:15:44I tried to.
00:15:45Yeah, right.
00:15:46But you didn't.
00:15:48Oh, Dexter.
00:15:54Come on in.
00:15:59Hey.
00:16:08Hi, baby.
00:16:10Hi.
00:16:29Shit.
00:16:45We have a studio for $1,500 in Flatbush.
00:16:49Does that interest you?
00:16:52We have...
00:16:53Excuse me.
00:16:55Let's go.
00:16:58Borough of Real Estate, Daniel speaking.
00:16:59Hi, Daniel.
00:17:00It's Veronica.
00:17:01Oh, from chemistry.
00:17:03Benton gave me your number.
00:17:07Yeah, from work.
00:17:09I was wondering if you would like to go to dinner with me.
00:17:15A date?
00:17:16No, not really.
00:17:17I...
00:17:18Well, I...
00:17:19You know, maybe he told you that I'm a blogger
00:17:22and I blog about sex and relationships.
00:17:25And, yeah, you're interesting to me
00:17:28and I've been looking for new subjects.
00:17:32Well, I don't meet that many monogamous people at chemistry
00:17:36and so I'm curious what it was like for you.
00:17:44Yeah, well, no pressure.
00:17:45It's up to you.
00:17:53You're going to love this place.
00:17:55I know the chef.
00:17:56He sources everything from local farms.
00:17:58Yeah, so everything is organic.
00:18:00And you can really taste the difference.
00:18:02Oh, his pork belly with truffle oil is to die for.
00:18:05Wow.
00:18:06Yes.
00:18:07So, did you enjoy the rest of the party?
00:18:12Yes.
00:18:13I didn't do anything, but it was interesting to watch.
00:18:18First time for everything, right?
00:18:20Right.
00:18:21Right.
00:18:23Yeah.
00:18:26What do you think about super spicy food?
00:18:29I love it.
00:18:30I mean, I'm Korean, so...
00:18:32Yeah.
00:18:33Me, I can only handle a little spice.
00:18:38Ginger.
00:18:39Ginger's my favorite.
00:18:40Ginger's my favorite spice also.
00:18:42Really?
00:18:43Yes.
00:18:44It's so versatile.
00:18:45It is.
00:18:46It is.
00:18:47It's so versatile.
00:18:48Yeah.
00:18:52I don't know anyone like that.
00:18:54Yeah.
00:18:55Well, ask away, because I'm really open to answering all questions.
00:19:03I usually ask people to take their shoes off inside.
00:19:06Right.
00:19:07Me too.
00:19:08That's okay.
00:19:09I do the same thing.
00:19:10You don't know what you're stepping on.
00:19:12Yeah, exactly.
00:19:13Yeah.
00:19:14Yeah.
00:19:15Yeah.
00:19:16So, this is my place.
00:19:18Wow.
00:19:19Welcome.
00:19:20This is Lulu.
00:19:21This is Lulu.
00:19:22Yeah.
00:19:23She's so beautiful.
00:19:24Wow.
00:19:25Okay.
00:19:26Hi.
00:19:27Take this off.

00:19:56Yeah.
00:19:57Can we not just do it somewhere else?
00:20:00Oh, yeah, yeah, sure.
00:20:01This is kind of awkward.
00:20:02Yeah.
00:20:03Yeah.
00:20:04Okay.
00:20:05Okay.

00:21:07Oh.
00:21:08Oh.
00:21:09Oh.
00:21:10Oh.
00:21:11Oh.

00:21:13Oh.
00:21:14Oh.
00:21:15Oh.
00:21:16Yeah.
00:21:17So cute.
00:21:18Lulu.
00:21:19Yeah.
00:21:20She likes you.
00:21:23Yeah?
00:21:24Yeah, no.
00:21:25Do you have a cat?
00:21:30Yes.
00:21:31Yeah, we have a cat.
00:21:36Dexter.
00:21:38Aw.
00:21:40Yeah.
00:21:41Hey.
00:21:43I usually don't do this.
00:21:46Me neither.
00:21:48I usually don't sleep with married people unless they're poly.
00:21:56Would you like some water?
00:21:58No.
00:22:03Are you going to tell your wife?
00:22:07No.
00:22:09I'll have to tell my girlfriend.
00:22:12I thought you can do whatever you want.
00:22:15No, no. We have agreements.
00:22:26I have to go.
00:22:39Okay.
00:22:41Bye.
00:22:50That fucking Pedro.
00:22:51It wasn't Pedro.
00:22:52You could have checked in.
00:22:54I know, I know. I'm sorry.
00:22:56Look, we have a relationship.
00:22:58Yes.
00:22:59Yes, I'm sorry. There wasn't a convenient time.
00:23:02Did you enjoy it?
00:23:04Joanne, please.
00:23:05Did you enjoy it?
00:23:07I love you.
00:23:09I fucking love you.
00:23:11I did poly.
00:23:12For you.
00:23:14Hey, everyone.
00:23:16This is my bisexual girlfriend.
00:23:18Stop it.
00:23:19She only wants to be with me if she could be with guys, too.
00:23:22You always had someone else in the back of your mind.
00:23:24You don't care about me or anyone but yourself.
00:23:27No, no.
00:23:28Fuck you.
00:23:29What the hell?
00:23:31This is such shit.
00:23:34What the fuck?
00:23:35What's wrong with you?
00:24:03Relationship agreements are like allergies.
00:24:08There's no obvious reason why one person has a violent reaction
00:24:12if her husband holds another woman's hand in a movie theater
00:24:16while another, like my ex-girlfriend,
00:24:19explodes when I have sex with someone else in our apartment.
00:24:24Polyamory makes me feel like I'm above cheating
00:24:28because I'm able to do it.
00:24:30I feel like I'm above cheating
00:24:33because I make my own rules and agreements.
00:24:36But when I break my rules, there's no one else to blame.
00:24:42Joanne was never totally comfortable with my lifestyle.
00:24:46I needed to end my relationship with her but didn't know when or how.
00:24:51Along came someone to do it for me.
00:25:00I'm sorry.
00:25:10How red is my color?
00:25:12Hola, mamacita.
00:25:15When you do that...
00:25:19Oh, wait, wait, wait. I have a delicate flower.
00:25:26I read your story, preciosa.
00:25:28It made me cringe.
00:25:29It made me laugh.
00:25:31It made me want more.
00:25:34My apology.
00:25:44Yeah, well, my followers don't want art.
00:25:48They want smut.
00:25:51What?
00:25:52What do you want? I don't care what they think.
00:25:55That was, that was actually...
00:25:58Oh, my God. You look like my mother.
00:26:00No.
00:26:08Have you always been polyamorous?
00:26:10Well, it was always in me.
00:26:14But my first love was blissfully monogamous.
00:26:19And we were so young and in love.
00:26:21It didn't feel like monogamy, you know?
00:26:24Yeah.
00:26:26But it ended, and monogamy hasn't appealed to me since then.
00:26:36I feel weird saying this, but after you and I had sex,
00:26:42I went home and had sex with my wife.
00:26:45Oh.
00:26:46We hadn't had sex in months.
00:26:48You're welcome.
00:26:50You inspired me.
00:26:56Are you sure it wasn't guilt?
00:27:00I did feel guilty at first.
00:27:03But then I felt more attracted to her.
00:27:10I would love to keep seeing you,
00:27:13with the hope that it brings something back to my marriage.
00:27:19Does this mean you'll go to a sex party with me?
00:27:22I mean, you and your wife?
00:27:25I... I don't know.
00:27:32So, babe, what...
00:27:34Baby, what do you...
00:27:35How do you feel about going to a party
00:27:37that is actually a sex party, but...
00:27:40Hey, it's like a sex party, but no pressure.
00:27:45You can just kind of drink and chill out and make friends.
00:27:48You want me to go to an orgy?
00:27:50Well, it's not just a bunch of people fucking.
00:27:52It's an actual party, you know?
00:27:54They have separate rooms for mingling, drinks, food.
00:27:57It's a really cool, like, situation.
00:27:59No.
00:28:02Look, we don't have to do anything.
00:28:04We can watch, you know?
00:28:06And, man, in therapy, you said you'd try new things.
00:28:10Look, if you want to see other people, then go ahead.
00:28:15Wait, are you sure?
00:28:18No, but maybe it's the best thing.
00:28:25Okay, look, I'll let you know if anything happens or I meet someone.
00:28:29I don't want to hide anything from you.
00:28:31No, please don't.
00:28:35I'm sorry.
00:28:37Please don't.
00:28:41Okay.
00:28:49Twilight sky
00:28:54Light four leaves clover
00:28:59Wow, you look amazing.
00:29:03Thank you.
00:29:05Oh.
00:29:07Tata.
00:29:09You like it?
00:29:10It's beautiful.
00:29:11Thank you.
00:29:13The golden rule is ask before you touch.
00:29:16Just remember that.
00:29:18Hi.
00:29:19No pressure, okay?
00:29:21No expectations.
00:29:23We don't have to do anything.
00:29:26Not even with me.
00:29:28We got a date.
00:29:30Woo!
00:29:32Let's sit here.
00:29:34Closer.
00:29:35I remember you.
00:29:36Yeah, I remember you, too.
00:29:38Do you want a drink?
00:29:40Come on, let's get a drink.
00:29:41Yeah.
00:29:42Check it out, okay?
00:29:43This is so awkward.
00:29:44Where am I?
00:29:47May I kiss you?
00:29:51Is he eleven already?
00:29:53Excuse me.
00:29:54She's fine. We'll see her later.
00:29:56Okay.
00:29:57She's doing her serving shift.
00:29:59Oh, okay.
00:30:14Fancy meeting you here.
00:30:16Hello.
00:30:23Oh, hi.
00:30:25Oh, look who I found.
00:30:27Hi.
00:30:28Good to see you.
00:30:30Will you come and play with us?
00:30:32Well, I'm here with a date tonight.
00:30:34Well, have fun.
00:30:36Okay, I'll try.
00:30:38I know you will.
00:30:40What do you call this?
00:30:42What is that?
00:30:43Maybe, uh, later?
00:30:46Maybe.
00:30:48A maybe gives her permission to keep trying.
00:30:51What do you want?
00:30:54I want you.
00:30:56I want to be with you.
00:30:59And maybe your friend over there.
00:31:06Good answer.
00:31:24This is so bad.
00:31:34Okay.
00:31:40Yes, yes.
00:31:42Yes.
00:31:44Yeah.
00:31:46So sexy.
00:31:54Oh, my god.

00:33:01Oldenterprising Minute Science Session Will by Alan Walker
00:33:10Thank you.
00:33:14Thank you.
00:33:18Well, that's a lot of firsts for one night.
00:33:22Congratulations.
00:33:24Thank you.
00:33:25You're a natural.
00:33:26Yeah?
00:33:27Yeah.
00:33:28I didn't think I would like seeing you with someone else,
00:33:31but it actually felt really open.
00:33:33I felt happy for you.
00:33:35That's compersion.
00:33:36Compersion?
00:33:37Mm-hmm.
00:33:38It's the opposite of jealousy.
00:33:40Oh, does that mean I'm poly now?
00:33:42No.
00:33:43Oh.
00:33:44Going to a sex party doesn't make you poly.
00:33:48Besides, you haven't seen me with another guy yet.
00:33:51Oh, okay.
00:33:52Yep, one step at a time.
00:34:06Want to come over?
00:34:10I told Kirsten that I'm coming home.
00:34:15Coming home from what?
00:34:18You know, out drinking with the guys.
00:34:21One of them got really drunk.
00:34:23You know, one of those things.
00:34:25Oh, yeah.
00:34:26Well, I'll just call a car.
00:34:29Yeah, I'll wait with you until the car comes.
00:34:33No, no, that's okay.
00:34:35You sure?
00:34:36Yeah.
00:34:37We'll talk.
00:34:41Get home safe.
00:34:43Thanks.
00:34:57Last night, Daddy and I went out to dinner at the club,
00:35:00and we ran into some old friends.
00:35:02Do you remember Ashley Van Houten?
00:35:06Vaguely.
00:35:07She just finished grad school and is moving to New York.
00:35:10Maybe you could show her around.
00:35:13Uh, I don't know.
00:35:17Ashley and I aren't into the same things.
00:35:20Well, it's up to you.
00:35:22How's your writing?
00:35:24Uh, good.
00:35:26I am very busy with my blog.
00:35:28Um, I have a lot of fans, so...
00:35:31I'm glad you found people who like it.
00:35:34I tried reading it once,
00:35:36but I had to stop.
00:35:37Something about a Mexican guy?
00:35:39I didn't find it so much, but your father...
00:35:43Really, do you have to be so detailed?
00:35:47Why don't you write children's books?
00:35:50I don't know.
00:35:51Why don't you join the Peace Corps?
00:35:54I'm not going to live in a hut, thank you.
00:35:57Of course the card is good.
00:35:58Sorry, I'll be off this call in a second.
00:36:00It's my daughter.
00:36:06Okay, bye.
00:36:08Bye.
00:36:19Um, yeah, that was when I was 12.
00:36:22I took my uncle's money,
00:36:24and I went to the bodega
00:36:26and just bought my first dirty magazine.
00:36:29What?
00:36:30Yeah.
00:36:31You were 12?
00:36:32Yep.
00:36:33Wow, wow.
00:36:35You've always had it in you.
00:36:37You naughty boy.
00:36:39Maybe, maybe.
00:36:40Oh, wait, hold on.
00:36:45Hi.
00:36:47Wait, no, I paid that bill.
00:36:50Oh, right.
00:36:51Oh, okay.
00:36:52Well, I'm sorry they're harassing you.
00:36:53I'll take care of it.
00:36:55Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:36:56Yeah, go on.
00:36:58Okay, soymilk, quinoa, uh-huh.
00:37:00Anything else?
00:37:02No?
00:37:03All right.
00:37:04Yep, I got it.
00:37:05Cool.
00:37:07Did you have to take that call?
00:37:10Well, we share expenses and an apartment, so...
00:37:36Okay.
00:38:06Is this new, Ma?
00:38:35She's my mother's.
00:38:37Oh.
00:38:39Para mí?
00:38:41Para ti.
00:38:44No lo pierdas, okay?
00:38:47Okay.
00:38:49Okay.
00:39:16I want to join you in Mexico.
00:39:20I could study Spanish.
00:39:22We could make some art together.
00:39:25I wish I could, but I'll be pretty busy with work.
00:39:28My mother and Victoria.
00:39:44I'll always love you.
00:40:07When Pedro and I first met, he said,
00:40:10When I love someone, the first thing I give them is freedom.
00:40:15Without him, I still have freedom, but what of it?
00:40:19The advantage of polyamory is if one relationship falls apart, you're not left stranded.
00:40:25Heartbreak insurance means you can always be comforted in the arms of another.
00:40:31But then you go to a party and you find yourself alone,
00:40:35dying a little with each stranger's touch.
00:41:01Veronica?
00:41:02Hi, hi, Daniel.
00:41:04Yeah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:41:05I'm sorry, I'm sorry it's so late.
00:41:07What's going on?
00:41:08I was at this party, and I was walking back, and I mean, it was a weird party.
00:41:15I had to leave, and now I don't know where the fuck I am.
00:41:19My phone's about to die.
00:41:20Oh, no.
00:41:22It doesn't feel safe.
00:41:25Do you want to come over?
00:41:27I'm house-sitting for a friend.
00:41:29Kirsten's not here.
00:41:30Are you sure?
00:41:31Yeah, yeah, I'll come get you.
00:41:33Just wait there.
00:41:34Drop a pin, and I'll come get you.
00:41:36Okay.
00:41:37Let me get you some tea.
00:41:39I think he has chamomile over here.
00:41:43There you go.
00:41:44Okay, so.
00:41:46All right.
00:42:01Here.
00:42:03Take this apricot, and just feel your breath, okay?
00:42:07I know it seems like you can't breathe, but you can.
00:42:31Here you go.
00:42:33Thank you.
00:42:41I think, um.
00:42:44I think it's passing.
00:42:47Wow.
00:42:49It's passing.
00:42:51It's passing.
00:42:53It's passing.
00:42:55It's passing.
00:42:57It's passing.
00:42:59Wow.
00:43:00Look at this.
00:43:03Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
00:43:05What are you doing?
00:43:08My brother and sister.
00:43:29Ta-da.
00:43:35What do you think?
00:43:37I need to hire you as my personal chef.
00:43:40You are a goddess.
00:43:43All right.
00:43:46Dig in.
00:43:48Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:43:54What's up, girl?
00:43:56Hey, girl.
00:43:57Aw, she needs a playmate.
00:43:58What?
00:44:00She got another cat.
00:44:02Yeah, but we have a special bond.
00:44:04I don't want to lose that to another kitty.
00:44:10It won't go away.
00:44:12It'll never go away.
00:44:15Thank you.
00:44:17Bye.
00:44:23Did you wash me off you?
00:44:27Good question.
00:44:28Let's check.
00:44:33Can you tell me?
00:44:41Hey.
00:44:44Where have you been?
00:44:46I had showings all day in Harlem.
00:44:51I asked you to do laundry three days ago.
00:44:54Well, I was busy selling, trying to sell apartments, so.
00:45:02You can at least pretend like you still live here.
00:45:10I don't know.
00:45:11It's like I've been saying this for months, but where are my needs?
00:45:13I mean, they're not being met.
00:45:15It's not that hard to meet them.
00:45:17I'm doing the best I can.
00:45:19I mean, we haven't had sex for months, which sucks.
00:45:23Yeah.
00:45:24And then he wants to go to culinary school, and we barely paid rent last month.
00:45:28I rented a lot of shitty apartments so you could pursue your dream.
00:45:32You know that, right?
00:45:34I get it.
00:45:35You're having a midlife crisis.
00:45:39But why should...
00:45:41Okay.
00:45:44Why should you give up everything so you can just keep struggling?
00:45:50I don't understand.
00:46:13How are you?
00:46:14I've been thinking about you.
00:46:16Not so well.
00:46:18Aw.
00:46:19What's been going on?
00:46:21Kirsten and I are getting a divorce.
00:46:26Wow.
00:46:28I feel like my soul has been ripped out of me.
00:46:32Oh, yeah, that's understandable.
00:46:35We were together for 12 years.
00:46:38I don't know how to be now.
00:46:40Like, who am I without her, you know?
00:46:45Well, you're still you.
00:46:50Who is that?
00:46:51It's my mom.
00:46:54I think you need to take some time to rediscover yourself and maybe get out of town for a little while.
00:47:04My parents, they live in Connecticut, so maybe you and I could...
00:47:14Sorry, is this a bad time?
00:47:16Yes.
00:47:17I'm so sorry.
00:47:19Is this a bad time?
00:47:20Do you want me to...
00:47:25I'm so sorry.
00:47:26I'll call you back.
00:47:27Okay, bye.
00:47:30Did you break this?
00:47:36Oh, that's delicious.
00:47:40Oh, pretty.
00:47:41Huh?
00:47:42Oh, pretty.
00:47:43Oh, yeah?
00:47:44Thank you.
00:47:45Let's go.
00:47:46What about him?
00:47:47No.

00:49:44Hedge funds.
00:49:45Do you invest?
00:49:47Oh, I would like to,
00:49:48but I don't have anything to invest.
00:49:50You don't need a lot.
00:49:52Start small.
00:49:53Very smart.
00:49:54China, emerging markets.
00:49:55Performance is the key now,
00:49:57even more so than liquidity or transparency.
00:49:59It's only up and up again now.
00:50:01After 08, we had to sell a boat,
00:50:04downsize to two cars, and...
00:50:07Anyway, what are you up to these days?
00:50:09So many projects, I can't keep up.
00:50:12Um, I am...
00:50:13There's your lust blog.
00:50:14Is it like Dan Savage?
00:50:16I listened to his podcast once.
00:50:18He sounded really gay.
00:50:19Not to change the subject,
00:50:20we're so happy Veronica finally settled down.
00:50:23We were concerned.
00:50:24What do you mean, concerned?
00:50:25Well, you know, about your roommate situation.
00:50:28Well, Joanne was never my roommate, Mom.
00:50:32Why didn't you tell us?
00:50:34I don't know.
00:50:35I just didn't think that you wanted to.
00:50:37It doesn't matter now, because you're with Daniel.
00:50:41Yes, well, just because I'm with a man now
00:50:44doesn't mean I'm heteronormative.
00:50:46Oh, where do you get these words?
00:50:48What I mean is, we're not a conventional couple.
00:50:51I mean, sometimes we...
00:50:53What?
00:50:54We do things with other people.
00:50:56Wait a minute, are you saying you're swingers now?
00:50:59Oh my God, I saw a show about that.
00:51:02It's not exactly swinging.
00:51:04I mean, swinging is related,
00:51:05but it's more like open relationships, you know, consensual.
00:51:09What are you, polygamists or?
00:51:11No, we're polyamorous.
00:51:13What?
00:51:14Um, poly coming from the Greek meaning many,
00:51:18and amory or amorous meaning love.
00:51:22So it means many loves.
00:51:25Yeah, beautiful.
00:51:29You know, your mom and I were invited to a key party once.
00:51:33What?
00:51:34Well, we didn't go, of course.
00:51:36Why not? Why not?
00:51:38Please, let's not even discuss it.
00:51:40We're having dessert, right, Janet?
00:51:42Yeah, yeah, there'll be dessert.
00:51:43Please eat up more if you can.
00:51:46Yeah.
00:51:58How's the work this month?
00:52:02Are you just that good at it?
00:52:05You think I'm just that good at it?
00:52:07You have any idea what I do?
00:52:10No, no, no.
00:52:12Mmm.
00:52:28Mmm.
00:52:32Mmm.
00:52:36Mmm.
00:52:42Mmm.
00:52:52Hi.
00:52:53How are you, beautiful?
00:52:58Is this your first time at Poly Cocktails?
00:53:00Yes.
00:53:01Whoo!
00:53:05I think I've seen most of you naked.
00:53:08Who's getting naked?
00:53:09Uh-uh, not that kind of party.
00:53:10Mary told me long ago.
00:53:11Daniel is an amazing cook.
00:53:14Don't be modest.
00:53:15I'm being modest.
00:53:17So, what have you been up to?
00:53:19Any new projects?
00:53:21Actually, have a seat.
00:53:24You know, I love you two together.
00:53:26Yeah, you're right.
00:53:27I'm glad you came.
00:53:28Me too.
00:53:30I'd love to see more of you.
00:53:31Yeah.
00:53:32Yeah.
00:53:33Yeah, you're right.
00:53:34Both of you, together.
00:53:35Yeah, me too.
00:53:36Actually, I'm working on a documentary.
00:53:37Yeah?
00:53:38Yeah.
00:53:39About Poly.
00:53:40And I was thinking of you as a possible subject.
00:53:44Me?
00:53:46Well, I wonder why.
00:53:47I don't know anything about Poly.
00:53:49Come on, girl.
00:53:53So gorgeous.
00:53:54You're so gorgeous.
00:53:56Oh, yeah, hi.
00:53:58Daniel.
00:53:59Jasmine.
00:54:00Hi.
00:54:01Hi.
00:54:02How are you?
00:54:04Hi.
00:54:08When couples talk about sharing,
00:54:10it usually doesn't include sex and romantic love with other people.
00:54:15Anything that threatens to upset the paradigm of two is risky.
00:54:20But, mutually adding a third person to a relationship
00:54:24has the power to expand the intimacy of sharing.
00:54:29Beyond the pleasure and variety polyamory brings,
00:54:33it is enlightening to see my partner through the desiring eyes of someone else.
00:54:39When Maya laughs at Daniel's jokes, I laugh too,
00:54:43as if hearing them for the first time.
00:54:46I see myself in her wanting him, and I want her more.
00:54:52Her desire reminds me how desirable he is, and I desire him more.
00:54:58For the first time, I believe that three might be better than two.
00:55:04Shall we get dessert?
00:55:05Yes.
00:55:06Mmm, let's ask for dessert.
00:55:08Hi.
00:55:09Let's just ask for a check.
00:55:11I'll be right back.
00:55:14Daniel.
00:55:15Kirsten, hey.
00:55:17What are you doing here?
00:55:18I'm just here with some friends.
00:55:21You don't have to put on that act for my benefit anymore.
00:55:24Well, you didn't want to know, so...
00:55:27We're taking care of the check.
00:55:29Oh, good.
00:55:30Hi, I'm Maya.
00:55:31Kirsten.
00:55:32Nice to meet you.
00:55:33And this is Veronica.
00:55:35Hi.
00:55:36I know.
00:55:38We were the perfect couple, and we just couldn't make it work.
00:55:41How are you going to do any better?
00:55:44Well, we're not a couple. We're a triad.
00:55:50It's nice meeting you.
00:55:57Mmm.
00:56:04Mmm.
00:56:10What's your safe word?
00:56:12Kitten.
00:56:13Mmm.
00:56:18Meow.
00:56:28Is he?
00:56:30He's really sexy.
00:56:58Hi.
00:57:00Hi.
00:57:03Where do you work?
00:57:27I don't know.
00:57:44So you saw Maya on Saturday?
00:57:47Yeah, I went to her place.
00:57:49So we were going to go out to eat, but I was really horny,
00:57:55so I kissed her and kind of nudged her onto the bed.
00:57:59Mmm.
00:58:01So you, uh, before dinner?
00:58:06Yeah, yeah, we had sex before dinner.
00:58:10Oh.
00:58:12Then we went to a Mexican restaurant, we talked a lot.
00:58:15I didn't think we would have so much in common.
00:58:17Did you know she's divorced?
00:58:20No.
00:58:21No, I didn't know that.
00:58:23Talked a lot about you.
00:58:25I told you to be present.
00:58:27I was present. I talked about you because you're an important part of my life.
00:58:33Aww.
00:58:35Oh, okay. That's good.
00:58:37Yeah, I know.
00:58:39Yeah, and then we went back to her place and we fucked again.
00:58:47Was it good?
00:58:50Yeah.
00:58:51Yeah.
00:58:52And by then it was like three in the morning and she said I could sleep over if it was too late, so.
00:59:00That wasn't part of our agreement.
00:59:03It was so late.
00:59:06You know?
00:59:07I did leave early in the morning, though. Come on.
00:59:13Okay.
00:59:14Yeah, I mean, that's fine.
00:59:16Really?
00:59:17Yeah.
00:59:18Yeah.
00:59:19Oh.
00:59:21Okay.
00:59:40You look so happy.
00:59:41I know.
00:59:42Do you know how long they've been together?
00:59:44It's their 20th anniversary.
00:59:46Wow.
00:59:47That is so romantic.
00:59:49Oh my God, that is so beautiful.
00:59:51Hello, hello.
00:59:52Hi.
00:59:53Veronica, you remember our boyfriend, Ted?
00:59:55Of course.
00:59:57We go way back.
00:59:58Yeah.
01:00:01So how do you balance it, the three of you?
01:00:04It balances itself.
01:00:06We communicate. Trust each other.
01:00:09I'm the luckiest man in the world.
01:00:11Oh, two gorgeous partners. Of course you are.
01:00:16There's my man.
01:00:20Honey, are you jealous?
01:00:22No.
01:00:23It's okay to feel jealous.
01:00:25I know, I know.
01:00:27But I'm not.
01:00:28Maybe you need to be more involved.
01:00:30You know, if you want to move on the scales.
01:00:33Tip the scales.
01:00:34Ah, yes, tip the scales.
01:00:46You know, it's so nice to finally have a real date with you.
01:00:50Thank you for the opportunity.
01:01:01Wow.
01:01:02The healthy hedonist.
01:01:04What inspired you to put this on?
01:01:06I don't know.
01:01:07I just thought it would be a good idea.
01:01:09You know, I don't know.
01:01:11I don't know.
01:01:12I don't know.
01:01:13The hedonist.
01:01:14What inspired you to put those two things together?
01:01:20Well, you know how you get high and have hours of wild sex?
01:01:29But then the next day you do nothing.
01:01:31You do nothing but cleanse and fast
01:01:34and squeeze out the toxins through yoga and meditation.
01:01:39Yeah.
01:01:42Sort of.
01:01:43Sounds kind of extreme though.
01:01:47I hear what you're saying.
01:01:49But it's all about balance.
01:01:53Yeah.
01:01:55Living into your pleasure.
01:01:59I don't know, just being present with what you're actually...
01:02:03Sorry.
01:02:04Give me one moment.
01:02:10You know Pali people.
01:02:11They're always checking in.
01:02:13Yeah.
01:02:17I'm actually working on a book too.
01:02:20Yeah?
01:02:21Yeah.
01:02:22Well, what's it about?
01:02:23Well, it's a novel.
01:02:25Mm-hmm.
01:02:26And it's about love and lust and stuff like that.
01:02:38Stuff?
01:02:42Yeah, you know.
01:02:44Good for you.
01:02:45It's about a lot of things.
01:02:46Good for you.
01:02:47It's about a lot of things.
01:02:48Good for you.
01:02:49Yeah.
01:02:50Good.
01:02:51Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good.
01:02:52Good.
01:02:57Can I eat the food before it gets cold?
01:03:01Isn't that what we're doing?
01:03:02Oh.
01:03:03Oh.
01:03:04Oh.
01:03:09Okay.
01:03:10Okay, food.
01:03:12Yeah, food, yeah.
01:03:13Oh yeah.
01:03:38You're putting that up?
01:03:41Yeah, it's a good spot for it, so why not, right?
01:03:45Well, I mean, look at it, Daniel.
01:03:48It's a very sensual, intimate photo.
01:03:53And it's not small.
01:03:58Yeah, okay.
01:04:00It might give her the wrong idea.
01:04:02She comes over here and she sees that, you know?
01:04:05Uh, what wrong idea? I don't know.
01:04:08There are no photos like that of me up here.
01:04:11I'm gonna have to, you know, get some photos like that.
01:04:15At least one.
01:04:17Come on, it's just a gift, all right? Maya's a generous person.
01:04:19Don't you like her?
01:04:21Of course I do. She's my friend.
01:04:23I don't want to see her get hurt.
01:04:24Phone rings.
01:04:30Hey, David.
01:04:32Best of delivery.
01:04:34I'll ring you in now, okay?
01:04:42Thank you.
01:04:43Give it to me.
01:04:45Did you know that strawberries are from Brittany, France?
01:04:49Originally.
01:04:51Really?
01:04:52I did not know that.
01:04:54Can I play a song for you guys?
01:04:56Yeah.
01:04:57Over there, you can plug it in.
01:04:59Okay.
01:05:01Isn't he sexy?
01:05:03Yeah?
01:05:04Yeah.
01:05:33Oh.
01:05:35Oh.
01:05:37Oh.
01:05:39Oh.
01:05:41Oh.
01:05:43Oh.
01:05:45Oh.
01:05:47Oh.
01:05:49Oh.
01:05:51Oh.
01:05:53Oh.
01:05:55Oh.
01:05:57Oh.
01:05:59Oh.
01:06:01Oh.
01:06:03Oh.
01:06:05Oh.
01:06:07Oh.
01:06:09Oh.
01:06:11Oh.
01:06:13I just want to watch.
01:06:15Okay?
01:06:17Oh.
01:06:19Oh.
01:06:21Oh.
01:06:23Oh.
01:06:25Oh.
01:06:27Oh.
01:06:29Oh.
01:06:31Do you want me to keep going?
01:06:33Oh.
01:06:35You just need some time, I think.
01:06:38You just need some time, right?
01:06:40Yeah.
01:06:42Yeah?
01:06:44Yeah?
01:06:46You know, I don't think this is a good time.
01:06:49Sorry.
01:06:50It's just so...
01:07:00He's never been with a guy before.
01:07:05It really turns me on to see you with a man.
01:07:08You can understand that, right?
01:07:10Yeah, but I felt like you were pressuring me.
01:07:13Well, you were really enjoying it before you got all in your head about it.
01:07:18So, uh, what about your friend, uh, Yasmin?
01:07:21What about her?
01:07:24She's hot, so maybe we could, uh, you know, have her...
01:07:28Yasmin isn't taking on any new lovers.
01:07:30Well, she's not the only option.
01:07:32Well, neither are you.
01:07:42Dev, you just invited me over to continue, if it's okay with you.
01:07:49Sure.
01:07:51You have my blessing.
01:07:53Okay.
01:07:58Okay.
01:08:29Ugh.
01:08:31Ugh.
01:08:33Ugh.
01:08:35Ugh.
01:08:37Ugh.
01:08:39Ugh.
01:08:41Ugh.
01:08:43Ugh.
01:08:45Ugh.
01:08:47Ugh.
01:08:49Ugh.
01:08:51Ugh.
01:08:53Just need a little break.
01:08:57Ugh.
01:08:59Ugh.
01:09:01You okay?
01:09:03Ugh.
01:09:05Ugh.
01:09:08Ugh.
01:09:10Ugh.
01:09:33Nice face.
01:09:35Yeah.
01:09:37So, we got an HBO writer just down the hall.
01:09:42That's Spike Lee's assistant's office.
01:09:45Yeah.
01:09:46Oh, and these are the Barrys.
01:09:48Barry R, Barry S.
01:09:50You want to put a camera on me and my partners?
01:09:53We could work out the approach.
01:09:56How true to life do you want it?
01:09:59As true as you want it to be.
01:10:02You already have a following with your blog.
01:10:05This is going to take you on a whole other level.
01:10:09Think about it.
01:10:11Hmm?
01:10:13Although I had reservations at first, I can't edit what I do or say like I do here.
01:10:19My lovers gave me their consent.
01:10:21And besides, how could I refuse to expand and inspire?
01:10:26So, I'm going on camera.
01:10:28And I can't wait to tell you all about it.
01:10:32What's your ideal poly relationship or relationships?
01:10:37Well, since I'm bisexual, I used to think that ideally I wanted one male partner and one female partner.
01:10:47And those relationships would be equal.
01:10:50But now, well, more recently I've been feeling like I ideally want a primary relationship regardless of gender.
01:11:00And that with that person, I would share, well, we would share exploring with other people.
01:11:12And because, you know, I think it's important to have a solid foundation with someone.
01:11:25And it just seems easier to have that with one person.
01:11:30And then to, you know, and then build from there.
01:11:38Yeah, like a house.
01:11:40You know, you have the foundation and then you want to add the extensions later.
01:11:46Yeah.
01:12:02What's the most challenging part of being poly?
01:12:05You know, I was wondering if you, the next time before you see Daniel, can you check in with me?
01:12:19Me?
01:12:27Daniel is so...
01:12:33Okay.
01:12:36I have to admit, the first time it was just the pleasure of being with someone who intimately knows you.
01:12:49What?
01:12:52That...
01:12:56You are so beautiful.
01:12:57Okay.
01:13:00I mean, is that a yes to checking in?
01:13:02You know, Daniel is...
01:13:06Yeah, it's amazing.
01:13:07He's something.
01:13:11I wasn't going to say anything before, but he is...
01:13:14I don't think he's ready for this.
01:13:16And I know you guys have a relationship and I want to respect those boundaries.
01:13:20And I know he's your primary partner.
01:13:22I get that.
01:13:23I have, I've come to peace with that.
01:13:27I've settled with that.
01:13:28I'm fine with that.
01:13:29Uh-huh.
01:13:35You understand, you see it, right?
01:13:38Um...
01:13:39He has this like baby in a candy store kind of thing.
01:13:43Yeah.
01:13:44It's kind of scary.
01:13:47Yeah.
01:13:50That doesn't scare me.
01:13:51No?
01:13:52No.
01:13:56And you know, my lover Chris is supposed to come over later and I haven't seen him in a few months.
01:14:01So, I just want to conserve my energy.
01:14:07Oh.
01:14:08You know, I've been touring so many different places and...
01:14:10Yeah.
01:14:11Busy, busy, busy.
01:14:12So...
01:14:13Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
01:14:14You understand, right?
01:14:15So, you want me to go?
01:14:16Thank you.
01:14:18Um...
01:14:20Okay.
01:14:21You...
01:14:22Are you...
01:14:23You're okay?
01:14:24Yeah, okay.
01:14:25You sure?
01:14:26Yeah.
01:14:27Okay.
01:14:28You don't have to go right now.
01:14:45Okay.
01:15:15Okay.
01:15:43Do you mind?
01:15:45No.
01:16:01Do you know how...
01:16:03Here.
01:16:04No, I...
01:16:05Yeah.
01:16:06Okay.
01:16:07Put your arm...
01:16:08Wait.
01:16:09Put your arm through there.
01:16:10Um...
01:16:15No.
01:16:16Put your arm through this one.
01:16:18No.
01:16:19Put your head through.
01:16:20Oh.
01:16:23Yeah.
01:16:26Um...
01:16:34There?
01:16:39Yeah.
01:16:40Yeah.
01:16:42Hey.
01:16:43Hey, welcome home.
01:16:45Oh!
01:16:48Look at you.
01:16:49Look at Megan.
01:16:50Sexy Asian Satan.
01:16:52I like that.
01:16:54I'm getting nervous, man.
01:16:55It's a big night.
01:16:56It's a big night.
01:17:01Hey, you guys look great.
01:17:04You look great.
01:17:06Okay.
01:17:07Everyone, why don't we go around.
01:17:09Say your names and a little bit about yourself.
01:17:11So, who's starting?
01:17:12I will.
01:17:13Hi.
01:17:14I'm Jasmine.
01:17:15I lost my virginity in a threesome,
01:17:18and it was amazing.
01:17:21I was like, I don't want to be a nun anymore.
01:17:26It's been quite the journey to get to where I am now.
01:17:30I'm nervous.
01:17:34Oh, Maya.
01:17:35Hi, I'm Maya.
01:17:36Maya's my name.
01:17:38I just feel really grateful that I got to do this.
01:17:41I feel grateful that I got to choose this life.
01:17:44You know, whether I have one lover or five.
01:17:54I had no idea this world existed,
01:17:56but I met Veronica, and she opened me up.
01:17:59She helped me discover that ethical non-monogamy
01:18:02isn't just about swapping partners or free love.
01:18:05It's female-driven, generous, and inclusive.
01:18:10All right, you're up, girl. Come on now.
01:18:13Hi, I'm Veronica.
01:18:16I don't know why I'm here.
01:18:21No matter how careful you are,
01:18:23someone always ends up getting hurt.
01:18:33I'm Teddy.
01:18:34I'm polyamorous.
01:18:36It works for me.
01:18:40Hey, why didn't you acknowledge me?
01:18:43I'm here as your partner.
01:18:47You can choose.
01:19:01Ma'am?
01:19:09Ma'am?
01:19:10Come on.
01:19:38One.
01:19:41Two.
01:19:44Three.
01:19:47Four.
01:19:50Five.
01:19:51Six.
01:19:52Seven.
01:19:53Eight.
01:19:54Okay, red.
01:19:59Nine.
01:20:00Ten.
01:20:01Eleven.
01:20:06What's wrong with you?
01:20:07What the hell was that all about?
01:20:09We were playing.
01:20:10That was not play.
01:20:39Or as hell I'll still be pretty
01:20:42And you won't know how to turn back
01:20:47The time
01:20:52Doesn't it get
01:20:55Wildly inappropriate
01:20:59When you look at me like that
01:21:03And I'm arming my heart
01:21:11I've always hated this part
01:21:33Hey.
01:21:36Oh, you still got your...
01:21:39Oh, yeah.
01:21:40Yeah, I just didn't have any time to...
01:21:46What is this place?
01:21:48It was late and I needed to be alone,
01:21:50so, you know, Benton hooked me up.
01:21:52Benton?
01:21:53Yeah.
01:21:54Benton.
01:21:55Benton.
01:21:56Benton.
01:21:57Benton.
01:21:58Benton.
01:21:59Benton.
01:22:00So, you know, Benton hooked me up.
01:22:02Yeah, it's unrented, so he said I could crash here.
01:22:09Dish.
01:22:12Oh, are you hungry?
01:22:13I just ordered this.
01:22:15No.
01:22:16Oh, yeah, I meant this.
01:22:18Oh, no.
01:22:19Um, where's the bathroom?
01:22:21Ah, it's the first door to your right.
01:22:31Shit.
01:22:39You said you needed to be alone.
01:22:47Yes, but I met someone else.
01:22:52At chemistry?
01:22:53No, after.
01:22:55She's sweet.
01:22:56I've never been with a sex worker before.
01:23:01Oh.
01:23:09You paid her for sex?
01:23:11Yeah, she's smart.
01:23:13She's working her way through college.
01:23:20I have nothing against sex workers,
01:23:22but what the fuck, Daniel?
01:23:24What?
01:23:25You never said it was out of bounds.
01:23:28So this is my fault now?
01:23:30I give you freedom, and this is what you do with it.
01:23:33Well, I finally have freedom,
01:23:35and now you want to take it away.
01:23:37No.
01:23:38Yeah, that's what you're doing right now.
01:23:40No.
01:23:41Look, monogamy is obsolete, okay?
01:23:43You know that.
01:23:44No, I never said that.
01:23:45I never said that.
01:23:46You're not saying that, but that's what you're doing, okay?
01:23:48Monogamy is obsolete.
01:23:49What?
01:23:50Polyamory is a future.
01:23:52This, this is not poly.
01:23:55This, this, there are no boundaries here.
01:23:57Where are the boundaries?
01:23:58Boundaries?
01:23:59What about compersion?
01:24:00Compersion?
01:24:01Fuck, fuck compersion.
01:24:02What you did to Maya?
01:24:03Maya?
01:24:04Maya, what I did to Maya was not cool,
01:24:06but, but that...
01:24:08Look, she was not being my friend, okay?
01:24:11And that has nothing to do with you and me right now.
01:24:17I love you.
01:24:20I do too.
01:24:26I love you.
01:24:34Okay, I...
01:24:42I'm sorry, okay, look, just...
01:24:43Don't touch me!
01:24:55Look, I can give you threesomes and parties,
01:25:05and we can do things together.
01:25:10We can have all of that if you could just love me.
01:25:25I love you.
01:25:55I love you.
01:26:07Yeah, I mean, for me,
01:26:09like, with all my poly experience,
01:26:12I've never let go of my romantic view of love.
01:26:22Is it possible to love, like, openly, totally openly,
01:26:27and with vulnerability and with abandon,
01:26:33when you have multiple lovers?
01:26:35I...
01:26:37Sometimes I think yes, of course,
01:26:39but other times I'm not so sure.
01:26:44Which is why I think polyamory is just as fucked up as monogamy.
01:26:52Oh.
01:27:22I love you.
01:27:52I love you.
01:28:22I love you.
01:28:52I love you.
01:29:22I love you.
01:29:52I love you.
01:30:23Hi.
01:30:25Hey.
01:30:29How are you?
01:30:33Mmm, Daniel.
01:30:36I've never been disappointed in your cooking.
01:30:39There you go.
01:30:43So how's the book coming along?
01:30:45So how's the book coming along?
01:30:49So how's the book coming along?
01:30:55The book is going well.
01:30:58Yeah, it's, um...
01:31:01I realize sometimes it...
01:31:06A story needs separation from the thing that inspired it
01:31:11to start to really make sense.
01:31:19Yeah.
01:31:22Do you still go to parties?
01:31:25Oh, not as often.
01:31:28I'm dating someone now, actually.
01:31:33Do I know her?
01:31:36No.
01:31:37But I think you'd like her, though.
01:31:41How's it working out?
01:31:44We're really happy.
01:31:47Yeah, I go to the city when I can,
01:31:50and she comes up here a couple times.
01:31:55Hmm.
01:32:18Do you have someone?
01:32:23Yes, but she's married,
01:32:25and it'll never go beyond what we had.
01:32:28You were married when we met, remember?
01:32:40Would you ever...
01:32:45Would you ever, under the right circumstances,
01:32:51want to try again with me?
01:32:55What circumstances?
01:32:58You and I were never really a couple, Daniel.
01:33:02We...
01:33:04There was always something or someone between us.
01:33:11Besides, um...
01:33:14I'm seeing someone, too.
01:33:18She's a writer from New York.
01:33:23Loves cats.
01:33:40Okay.
01:34:10Okay.
