- Okay, you gotta understand that.
You see me textin' someone saying, like,
I wanna be with them.
It's not like I wanna, be with them.
- You are a cheater.
(classical music)
(continues)
- [Director] Hi.
- (in unison) Hello.
- [Director] Who are you
and how do you know each other?
- I'm Daniel.
- My name's Mackenzie
- Deontay.
- I'm Emiko.
- And we used to date.
- [Director] Used to, what does that mean?
- We're on a break
- Recently on a break.
- We are on a break.
- Do we wanna take a shot to start?
- (in unison) Yes.
- Oowee!
(glasses clink)
(glasses hitting table)
(classical music)
- "Who proposed being on a break?"
- I feel like that was me.
- I disagree.
You broke up with me,
but I said we should be on a break.
- [Director] Are you in separate places?
Or you live together?
- Separate places.
- Yeah.
- We were living together and then
I found out some stuff.
She did the one thing... - Had slipped my mind.
- The one thing I didn't want her to do.
- In high school, she dated my best friend,
my best guy friend.
And then they broke up
and then we got together
obviously for the past couple years now.
I found out that they had like, got together,
and that's like the worst thing for me is like,
going back to an ex,
I feel like is a big deal.
- "Who proposed being on a break?"
- Not me.
- Do you understand why though?
- Cause I'm crazy.
- No, like not to play, like keep it serious.
I proposed a break because I feel like
we need more time to you know, socialize more,
get more friends, you know?
- Yeah.
Stop just being around each other 24/7.
- Understandable.
- Recently you was the one that was just like,
well maybe we just need to back up
from each other a little bit.
- So with how we were bickering
and getting in fights over things,
I feel like we just needed a little breather.
I don't even remember what the argument was about.
I got mad about something.
How you answered the phone!
- What I say, wait, wait, don't tell me.
I said, uh... "Yeah?",
I just woke up. - That's how he answered
the phone.
- I just woke up like, "Yeah?".
- "Yeah?". Like the way that I received it
was like, "Am I bothering you?".
- After that, like I thought I rectified it with,
"All right, what's up?". - He thought he rectified it
with, "What's up?".
Yeah. That's where we were at.
- "Who do you think is having
the harder time with this break, me or you?"
- Me.
- Why?
- We still live together.
Even in separate rooms.
I don't want to think about you bringing somebody
into a place that we got together.
I personally wouldn't be able to do that.
That's why for me, like on a break or
on an open relationship or whatever,
I can't talk to someone like you talk to people.
I can't.
- [Director] Do you want an open relationship?
Is that what you're...
- I want the open relationship and it's,
but it's like, when I trying to mess with other people,
it's like, she's all into what I'm doing.
- No, no, no, no, no.
In an open relationship...
my definition of that, and we made the rules,
is you go have sex with other people.
You don't build a relationship...
She's actually subject it...
She makes it one thing. - But that's what we agreed on
- "Who do you think is having
the harder time with this break? Me or you?"
- You.
- Why do you think me?
- Cause you emotional.
I mean, not to say it's a breeze for me,
but I believe you're having a harder time.
- "On a scale of one to 10,
how much will you miss the sex if we break up?"
- I already miss it. What are you talking about?
A thousand and million. 20 billion.
What?
That's like a 15, that's like a 20.
You're my first everything.
And I feel like we are like, our souls are connected.
- "On a scale of one to 10,
how much will you miss the sex if we break up?"
- You already know how I am about missin' things.
Like the way I'm built.
It's hard for me to miss stuff,
because I easily just get it out my mind.
- But I know you be missing me.
- Eight.
- Like, okay.
- I give you a eight.
- "If we end up breaking up, is there someone
you have in mind as your next partner?"
- (laughs) I'm just gonna...
(glass clinks)
- Do you have someone in mind,
or actually how many people have you told
that you want to be with them?
- Okay, you gotta understand that.
You see me texting someone saying like,
I want to be with them.
It's not like I want to be with them.
- You are a cheater.
- You said a what?
A cheater.
- You're a cheater, Daniel.
Jesus.
- I cheated.
But you pushed me to that.
If I'm gonna come home and hear you like,
saying I'm cheating regardless.
It's like, why not just go ahead and do it anyways?
- I'm choosing the relationship,
you are choosing to do other shit.
- Can we take one?
- [Director] Yes.
- Jesus Christ. - Oh my god, damn.
- "Have you fucked anyone else
while we've been on a break?"
- Okay, well you know about right
after we broke up when I was with Taylor.
- Yes.
- Penny.
- Don't say Jeff.
- Jeff.
- Ugh!
- Connor
- Ugh!
- Carlos.
- Ugh!
- You have that, that person at Timber,
Jordan! - Oh my god, just people
I kissed? I don't remember.
- Damn!
Okay, she got too much. - I don't remember.
- Well, no, Dylan! Dylan was New Years!
- Can I take a shot of this?
- Yeah. Just, she...
- Okay. (laughs)
I know but I didn't have sex with him.
- You pretty much did.
(classical music)
- "Have you fucked anyone else
while we have been on a break?"
- I mean, I could say I've tried.
Every time I like, go see someone else,
it just never works out.
'Cause I just know like I'm gonna hear that when I get home,
and it's like, it's just you always on my head though
when I go see someone else.
- Whatever.
- "Tell me one reason why we should stay together,
and one reason why we should break up."
- I mean, because it's like, I don't see this
like no reason to really break up.
The shit that you be pushing me to change is
the shit that I already know
I need to change within myself.
That's a good reason for me, like for us to stay together.
But like that's easier said than done.
- Yeah.
- I genuinely think that we are like soul tied humans.
I think you like understand me more than anybody ever.
- Why we should stay together?
- Mm.
- It's 'cause we're gonna have
the most beautiful children you'll ever see.
- Do you only want a baby outta me?
- No. Because I can see us together.
I've never been able to see me together with someone
and unfortunately it's you, so.
- It always makes sense when I think
of us like, being together.
But sometimes I just feel like
we're our own worst enemies
and that's a big reason why we don't come together
as we should on some things.
And I don't wanna be at odds like,
with somebody every day
over stuff that really like,
I mean, it doesn't mean anything
like in comparison to just us.
- Yeah.
- I said I wasn't gonna do that.
Okay. Next question.
(both laugh)
- Nah, you right. You right, girl.
- "Have you fallen out love with me?"
- Fuck.
(glass sliding)
- That's fucked up. - It's not.
(grunts)
- "Have you fallen out of love with me?"
- I don't think I could. I tried.
- I tried too.
I was so mad at you.
I am petrified of stuff with your ex.
I've always been, you know what I mean?
So, I think that it's just gonna take me
like calming down just a little bit
and really you showing me that that's not a thing.
- Yeah.
- Between you guys.
I would like to be with you, obviously.
I just am a little traumatized child right now.
- "Have you fallen out of love with me?"
- No. It's literally been like two weeks.
Are you still in love with me?
- I wouldn't even be going through all of this
or nothing like this
if I didn't feel some type of way about you.
Like, I really don't want to see you like, with nobody else.
- [Director] Where do you two go from here?
- It's up to her.
I want to be with her,
but I understand that like it takes
a long time to heal from things that hurt you.
- [Director] So overall, how was the experience for you two?
- It was great.
We are not shy when it comes to this stuff.
- Yeah. This might help us out a lot, too.
And I feel like we just got a little closer with this.
