We showed them! We've been trying to get more relationship videos out there and
I asked Stefan, and Stefan not being a very big camera person was very nice enough
to be like yeah and I'm down to talk about our relationship. So we don't
really have a lot of time together but we do spend a lot of time in the car.
- What is that? - An aston martin.
Since we're in the car a lot, we decided we'll talk about our relationship here, where we're most in
our element. Most of our conversations end up in the car. Most of the time our
deepest levels of conversation are carried out in the car. So I think today
we'll start off our first relationship video talking about how we met. - Car talks!
Car talks! We should come up with a series for this car..lationships.
We met in high school and
we had a class together, entrepreneurship class. The biggest project like most of
our mark was to start a group together and start a business, make profit, find
investors. I was with a few of my friends - They're my friends first
Yeah they were his friends first he had from
junior high. I was a transfer student I transferred back to my home school and
so I kind of knew some people there from elementary but I still didn't
really know them. But yeah we started a group - we started a group project
together and Stefan kind of came in as an extension cuz his cool group of cool
friends they had too many people. And you're like let's final I'll go to
another group, you being you. And then you joined us and that was my first time
kind of talking to him from what I knew of Stefan he was the only tall guy in
school and I thought you had a girlfriend at the time. I thought you had
a girlfriend at the time, and I was like he's so tall and quiet why is he so
quiet? He's just so quiet and I was like I wonder what he is, I know it's really
bad, but I was like isn't he, he looks mixed. I have no idea what he is
I was like is is he like latino? I don't really know it was very
ambiguous to me but never did I ever think that you're Indian which is what
everybody thinks. We decided to sell Rice Krispies - No, well yes, Rice Krispies
were the main thing - Yeah - And then anything else we could buy
at Costco - Yeah oh yeah one bite brownies! yeah yeah and we were so stupid because
we were in a primarily Asian school and that other group decided to make bubble
tea and - Of course that shit's gonna go well. - Yeah I remembered a few of the teachers
were like oh man one of the teachers had this Rice Krispies and they said it was
the best day they ever had so I came and got more rice krispies and I was
like okay I don't think Rice Krispies are anything special but yeah we did, well
Stefan did, and actually Stefan came over to my house to make them - Yeah and your
parents were there - And they're like he's cool sure fine nothing didn't know that
there was well, by then there was nothing between - Yeah there was nothing
- We just started talking - Talking on MSN - Yeah right cuz MSN is so easy for a shy
boy to talk and not feel pressure - I was on the computer all the time anyways
- Yeah and I am a chatty person anyways so
we just hit it off. We're very very very different people and I think that's
how it worked. And then how we got together it was the best with Jen Wu and
Jen Wu was really close to Stefan and I was pretty close to Jen Wu - we were
over at her house the both of us and I remember we were in her room and
she was like do you guys like each other? We look at each other were like, uhhh I guess, and she
was like why don't you guys just date anyways. I think you asked me out after
that. That's when I started sneaking out of the house. So I would sneak out of the
house and I have like an elaborate alarm system at my place. My parents are really
like big on security and stuff so trying to turn off that alarm and then keep the
door and it's a solid wood door and it was really loud
and trying to keep that door from screaming when it closed. So I kept it
partially open and then we would hang out in his dad's car we wouldn't even
really drive anywhere we just hung out right? Make out eventually, make out in
the car, and I think my mom started asking questions, maybe I
told my mom that I had a boyfriend and the first question was like what is
he? And of course I was like well he's he's Guyanese and half-white. Mom made
some very racist comments about that. Sorry mom to put you on blast like that,
but that's what happened. Immediately was like not for it she was against him but!
But when we were young my parents would be at work and then after school he
would walk me back home and I'd be like come on inside like come inside and hang
out for a little bit, horny teenager stuff. And we would hang out and
sometimes my parents would come home earlier than expected and then
he's been caught a few times which doesn't leave a good impression and
that's for us to blame for sure. So he's been caught a few times and then dad,
do you remember when my dad first met you? - Yeah and he was asking you
questions by the stairs - Yeah - Yeah but he was nice back then when he asked you
those questions he was like very calm about it. He was like okay this is the
boyfriend like let's ask him questions about - What do you want to do?
My dad probably couldn't handle - you
don't think of your parents as human but I'm sure he was going through a lot of
emotions himself and really not knowing how to approach this. Things were pretty
ugly at the start, plus we were arguing a lot when we were in high school and
there were times where Stefan would come over and there was once where you sat
outside at the front porch and I wouldn't talk to you and you just sat
outside in the front porch and then my parents came home and saw you and
they're like what the fuck is he doing here. And you were like I wanted to talk
to your daughter I'm sorry. We were never in any classes together after that, which
which I was really hoping we would be
Yeah you did all the art stuff I did all the business stuff - Yeah but we never even
really ran into each other in school like back then I was on pay-as-you-go
texting I couldn't text him ever.
We couldn't really talk until we got home and - On the phone? - Yeah on the home
phone. The home phone! That's how we talked. I remember when we first started
dating we were walking down the hallways and we were holding hands and we walked
up to your friends and you let go of my hand and I was so sad - Aw..
- I was so upset I was like, why, are you ashamed of me? - It's high school
- It is high school. so we talked about that and you said that you were
shy and you were embarrassed. But meeting his parents were so easy because
they're pretty much white, and it was like what a lovely asian girl she is so
pleasant! That kind of began this very tumultuous few years of we argued we
argued quite a lot and also I argued a lot with my parents. And they kind of
made us feel like we're too young and we don't know what love is, and I still felt
that way I totally agreed with them I was like yeah I don't think that this is
gonna last like but - There's no point in ending now
- Yeah we like each other so
we're just exploring it. And then for some reason we lasted this long.
We showed them! - But we did break up once. We broke up just before grade 12
and then and then started hooking up.
But we'll talk about that in another video. We have arrived at our destination!
Yeah we'll expand on the whole like parents not approving this is this is
