Yin & Young Episode 19 - Own Worst Enemy

August 29, 2017 in Relationships, Society & Culture, Asian American

James and Dan discuss their past dating regrets.

James rehashes a recent date from the initial approach to the end of the date, where he foils himself with his need to control the narrative.

Being a director, James wanted to set up the scene with the perfect soundtrack, lighting, and conversation only to interrupt the mood with his constant staging of the moment.

Dan talks about his own use of social media and his online dating experiences. He also talks about when he gets in his own way.

The Thomas Crown Affair opened up a conversation with a date on ideal boob size.

Street Fighter II was more interesting than a random college hookup.

Space-Time bringing peace with choices.

The lesson of the day - Learn from your mistakes.

 

LANGUAGE CORNER -

Mandarin Chinese:

好馬不吃回頭草 (Hǎo mǎ bù chī huítóu cǎo) - literally: a good horse does not eat grass that has passed. figuratively: a smart person does not dwell in the past.
