Please help me welcome comedian Gina Ron to Me Too Daily.
00:08
Hi Gina. And the crowd goes wild.
00:13
Good and yourself? I'm good.
00:15
I've had my coffee.
00:16
You're catching me at a good time.
00:17
My cafecito, as my son calls it.
00:19
I love it. Well,
00:20
Gina, Valentine's Day is literally around the corner,
00:24
and I have to ask you,
00:25
what are your dating predictions for 2025?
00:28
Oh, I got some good ones for you.
00:30
Let's let's let's start off with a good test I like
00:34
to put people through.
00:36
Let them join the family group chat for for a day.
00:39
See if they survive.
00:40
See if they survive your family group chat.
00:42
You put them in with the family.
00:44
If they can survive the chime and the back talk and all
00:49
of the backhanded compliments that you know we do so well,
00:53
then you might have found that special someone.
00:55
Would you trust anybody with that?
00:56
Would you do it,
00:57
Jenny? Hey, I'll try it.
01:00
I'll try it and I'll see if they fit the vibe,
01:02
then. You'll see,
01:04
you know, with the family.
01:05
You'll see right then and there if they click before you even
01:08
go out on a date with them,
01:09
because why waste the time?
01:11
Why waste the time?
01:12
I'm not gonna go to Texas Roadhouse with you if you can't
01:16
you know what I'm talking about them biscuits is worth it
01:20
You can't take me out there if you can't even hang
01:22
with the family. That's true.
01:24
And I wanted to ask,
01:26
how's flirting in Spanish versus English different?
01:29
OK, can we stop pretending?
01:32
Like English people know how to flirt.
01:34
First of all, Spanish is such a poetic language.
01:40
A friend of mine recently went on a trip and she
01:43
was, she went to Spain and she met a beautiful man
01:46
And before he even gets to her name,
01:49
she's like, hola preciosa Bonita princessa.
01:53
What is a dude speak in English gonna say to you,
01:56
Hey yo ma, like baby girl,
02:00
baby girl, or if you're in New York,
02:03
they just yell out random things.
02:04
Hey, you in the jacket.
02:05
No, you, you with the shoes.
02:09
In Spanish it's so romantic.
02:12
It's so poetic, you know what I mean?
02:15
And what's the best way to win someone over in Spanish?
02:18
Usually I think it's by being playful.
02:21
Like, let's say you smile back,
02:22
you go, it is,
02:23
huh, look at you and you're like,
02:26
I am, I am.
02:29
That's funny. I think that's the best way.
02:31
That's what always gets me.
02:32
I like a playful person.
02:34
I think flirting should be very playful.
02:36
That's kind of the idea.
02:37
That's what makes it fun,
02:38
and I think it's much more of that in Spanish than in
02:42
English. Oh definitely.
02:44
And how do you win over the suegra?
02:46
because I know and like dude,
02:48
you've got to win over the suegra.
02:49
That's key. One,
02:50
it's by. Being as empathetic to the fact that she is
02:56
a mother and 2 being honest because as much as you think
03:00
like you gotta finesse your suegra,
03:03
she's gonna see right through that.
03:05
Do they do you can't finesse the suegra.
03:07
You gotta, you gotta be real with her.
03:09
You gotta be honest with her and you gotta be yourself because
03:11
that's a lot of people that I've seen and even,
03:14
you know, and suegras talk,
03:15
so I heard a lot of smack about ex-girlfriends.
03:20
Yeah, they're not,
03:20
they're not shy about them.
03:22
They're not. I had swag that told me to leave their
03:24
son. That's how,
03:26
that's how much they like me.
03:44
They said, I don't date him,
03:45
bro. They throw their son under the bus.
03:45
That's crazy. But my last did say that.
03:45
I'm telling you she be looking out for you if you're a
03:45
good girl. They're a good girl.
03:45
So Gina. Kind of talking about the different generations when it
03:49
comes to dating. What do you think is the biggest difference
03:52
between Gen Z and millennials and dating?
03:55
I feel like millennials ask all of the right questions and still
04:00
make the wrong moves.
04:04
Like I feel like millennials ask the questions and then go and
04:07
still suffer from what I think a lot of Gen X suffered
04:09
from, which is,
04:10
I can change this person.
04:12
I feel like millennials still hold fast to that belief,
04:15
and, and that has a lot to do with the fact
04:17
that the majority of millennials have been through the healing journey in
04:20
therapy or have gone through therapy or in therapy,
04:22
so they believe in a person's ability to change.
04:25
Yeah., Gen Z is very cut and dry.
04:28
Gen Z is very not,
04:30
we're not on the same page.
04:32
So this has been real.
04:34
Thank you. Your stuff has been packed.
04:35
You can leave now.
04:37
Like it's very like,
04:38
we're not here, so I'm not wasting my time.
04:41
Like breaking a generational trauma like kind of like we're not toxicos
04:46
anymore. We're leaving.
04:47
Toxicos, which is crazy.
04:49
That is the thing though.
04:50
They're really like no more toxicos and the millennials are like,
04:53
we'll take them. I got you.
04:56
Before we wrap up,
04:57
we wanted to play a little game of in or out,
05:01
so I'm gonna give you,
05:03
we're gonna give you some,
05:04
some topics, some subjects of conversation when it comes to dating
05:09
And you tell us if you think in 2025 it's in
05:12
or it's out.
05:13
OK. All right,
05:14
ghosting. Ghosting is so out.
05:16
Everybody's over ghosting. Like if you ghost me,
05:19
I'm gonna ghost you harder.
05:20
I'm gonna ghost you so that you question your existence.
05:23
That's how much you're gonna have to have a seance to see
05:26
if you still exist in this world.
05:27
I'm gonna delete you from existence.
05:30
If you ghost me,
05:32
that's it. You,
05:33
you're a ghost, dog.
05:34
I don't talk to you.
05:34
I don't see you.
05:35
Nothing, nothing. That's rude too.
05:37
It's very rude. Now,
05:39
what are your thoughts on dating apps in 2025,
05:41
in or out? I think they're in because don't nobody feel
05:44
safe face to face face anymore.
05:47
For somebody that has like,
05:49
if you have social anxiety,
05:50
dating apps are the best way to connect with people because it's
05:53
like, I don't have to meet you at a bar.
05:55
I can talk to you first.
05:56
Let's get to know each other.
05:58
plus I'm gonna do my little FBI CIA look up
06:00
of who you are based on your information.
06:03
So I've always liked the idea of dating apps because I think
06:06
they make it a little safer for us.
06:08
Even with catfishing, even with catfishing,
06:11
I feel like you can still do your homework because I've had
06:13
people be like, I think I'm getting catfished.
06:15
I'm like, then you probably are.
06:17
you should probably do some.
06:17
And what what about splitting the bales?
06:22
I think it's in and I'm gonna tell ladies.
06:26
Ladies. I beg of you.
06:30
Split the bill. I'm gonna say it and I know,
06:33
I don't want nobody write no hate mail.
06:36
There will be no expectations if you split the bill.
06:41
But we all know that with certain dates.
06:45
Expectations cause an issue because it's like,
06:48
oh, so you paid,
06:49
so now you're entitled to my time or whatever you think you're
06:53
entitled to. But if we split the bill,
06:56
say, see you later next time,
06:58
sir, maybe, maybe.
07:00
So I'm all for splitting the bill only for like just to
07:05
set a standard of,
07:06
hey, this is the boundary.
07:07
When I'm comfortable with you covering the bill,
07:09
when I know that there's no expectation added on to that.
07:13
Then fine, go ahead,
07:13
pay the bill. I agree with you.
07:15
I've always been that way,
07:16
like, no, like I don't need you to think I
07:18
need you. I don't.
07:22
Yeah. Yeah, it's more important that I want you around
07:24
than I need you around.
07:25
