Why Alex DIDN'T Put a RING ON IT 💍 | Pretty Not Smart Podcast

[@alondragarcia.]

This is a reminder that EVERYONE INCLUDING MEN can struggle with mental health not just females , poor Alex .😞 He pushed his own feelings trying to keep everything and everyone else in track. I’m glad that they are letting him talk he needed to express him self.

[@anaortiz7280]

💯💯💯

[@Jaaymora]

Yoatzi expected toooooo much from him… she literally went through a traumatic experience with her ex and soon after she got pregnant with Alex … and I think she wanted Alex to do everything and mend her wounds but he was a new dad and still learning and she came in like BAM and also with Travis. That is HER kid and he still does everything for her and him…

[@nancy.45]

Exactly! She expected too much from him and kinda put him through that depression because he felt overwhelmed and not understood 😢 I hope Alex finds someone better that actually loves him for who he is inside and out. He is such a great guy

I just love how Louie doesn’t take sides and understands both of them I love them 💜💜💜💜

[@belensandoval7476]

I feel like Alex already puts a lot on the plate! He was put in Yoaztis life to give her strength from her past trauma. Sometimes people come into your life in episodes for a reason and leave when it’s the right time. You know?

[@yooprnt]

you guys always say ur not smart but yall articulate yourselves so well

[@dianaaaaaaaaa9268]

It’s obvious that Alex wants to be with Yoatzi but Yoatzi is rushing things in the sense that marriage will define their relationship. They have been on and off for 6 plus years but not in a committed relationship so you can’t expect a ring to feel like your relationship is serious. I think it’s great that Loui was the meditator because he sees both sides but holding them accountable to reality. A baby, a ring will NEVER define a relationship you need to work for it and cherish it. I wish you both the best of luck and if being together is what’s down the road then your efforts will show.

[@UnknownUzerr]

He ain’t gotta problem getting married, mans wants to have his bag to provide, did you not listen? His girl has her bag, pretty big one too so if he’d like to be up to par then good for him. Y’all need to rewatch and reassess smh

[@marthaleyva9585]

Bottom line she needs to work on herself so she’s not so desperate to want to keep a man when he’s trying to figure things out too

[@ilsemndez]

Y’all didn’t have to share this much with us especially how people are 🩷but as a supporter I appreciate you guys sharing. This gave us a better understanding. Love you guys!!!!💜 I’m glad we got to see more Alex too!!!!

[@angiemendoza9751]

ALEX didn’t have to step up and take care of Travis but HE DID! and that’s amazing to me from being a single mother, it’s hard to find a man that WANTS to step up but these things that y’all are having trouble with can be work through because if you were thinking marriage then it’s through up and downs and marriage is hard but you guys can tell y’all love each other! Yotzia I pray you find healing from your past trauma and self heal. Praying for y’all! Y’all got this!

[@Angeel1997]

Jesse wasn’t a bad dad yotzia kept her baby daddy away from his son & still is keeping her son away . Fucking sad everyone is showing so much love to Alex for stepping in as a step father when the real dad wants to be in his son life !!

[@RamonaCoronado]

I must say ive seen both videos that alex and yoatzi posted but this video by far is the best one. I love how louie was able to dig a bit deeper into the sitation and held them both accountable for things that they both did wrong, the communication couldnt have been better both yoatzi and alex were able to open up on a deeper level in this video i feel, props to louie for making it a safe space for them to be able to both equally express them selves & hopefully everything works out for them. You can tell there honestly is love there in between the two

[@cerinarascon1985]

This !!!

[@yuribeltran6209]

Take a shot everytime Louie says “POV” lol no but I really enjoyed this raw episode like how Louie was there for both of them little therapist moment !!

[@Syddneeey22]

Why was I thinking this 😂😂😂

[@M.isamar]

I have been married for 5 years now but prior to that I was with my husband for 6 years and I thought the same as yoatzi. A few months ago me and my husband talked about this same conversation why some men don't want to get married. And he actually told me the same thing that Alex said. He said he knew he wanted to get married to me. However, he didn't feel like he was financially ready yet. And we went into more in depth in the conversation and now I understand my husband's point of view. About being stable and being where you want to be before getting married etc. 😊

[@LovelyA-li2si]

Thank you for this episode! Ahh Louie the therapist. Thank you for showing us & explaining to us Yoatzi & Alex's relationship, from their perspective & yours Louie. I didn't know Yoatzi knew Alex before he went on social media.

[@susiefranco3349]

Alex did have a point about not diving into your feelings because you will get things done but like Louie said you will eventually crack. Everyone needs to find the balance of their feelings which is why so many people go to therapy. But not dealing with your feelings is what men are technically trained to do and why they eventually crack and especially in a relationship.

[@giselaorquiz8293]

I can see the love Yoa and Meh have for each other and I sincerely hope they work it out

[@yesseniaguzman8818]

Take a shot each time Louis says “POV” lol Good podcast you guys! Louis is a good mediator!

[@la_yadira]

I honestly think it’s the peer pressure. I felt the same way. Specially when I would see everyone around me get engaged and married and that would make me wonder why not me. Like is someone wrong with me… I fell into pressure that looked like if I wanted to rush things although my relationship was for years and years already. I learned that everyone’s timing is different. I say this also because I remember watching another podcast where an influencer talked about the pressure to be like the rest influencers like getting a BBL and dressing like them. At the end she didn’t get a BBL but she talked about how the pressure is real. I love you guys!!! ❤Wish you all the best!

[@chkmayte15]

1000% agree !

[@alondraserrano8930]

This honestly made me understand yoatzi so much better. Because before I wouldn’t understand the reason why she wanted to get married but now I understand it’s because she wants to someone to be fully committed to her and not just cause she wants a wedding. 😢

[@Robloxxxxxxs]

*the fact that Alex and Jessie (Travis dad ) were friends is crazyyyyyy Alex knew about them just wanted fame for himself, and seeing lies from Alex is just funny knowing that he already knew about them like por favor*

[@ElisaH1129]

Having a bby is hard it can either break or make your relationship stronger

[@crystallmp]

im so glad yoatzi brought up the reason with wanting to have the “marriage title” is to feel that your partner is committed to you. which is such horrible mentality to have bc your partner could be 10000% committed to you, but just needs more time and we’re over here thinking they dont want to fully commit to us. alex explained the answer perfectly and i truly understand how it feels to be in yoatzi shoes

Louie word of the century :Optometrist, doppelgänger

[@vanessaotero2999]

Hi Louie yoatzi and Alex this episode was the best I have been engaged for 1 year and I always had a vision of when I wanted to be married by. My fiancé and I started planning but financially we couldn’t keep up. My fiancé came to me and told me how he wanted to plan this wedding and enjoy it and not be stressed out. After hearing how much he wanted to slow down the plans because he wanted that day and process to be special , I was able to appreciate and respect his reasonings. I saw his intentions were not because he didn’t love me but that he wanted to remember this day for the rest of our lives and for it to be perfect. Keep working hard keep working at the relationship and thank you all for sharing I love you guys ❤️💜💕

“now i can see why he left” lmfaoo 😭😭

[@marioNmyra22]

Relationships & marriage means going through mistakes and experiences together and that sometimes leads through rocky situations, arguments, etc. but thats the beauty of it, after some time you’ll see your growth but the whole point of it all is to never give up on eachother. We grow together and it isnt easy. And especially seeing someone like what alex said he went from one person to 2 to 3. It was all at once.

[@yareliestrada2564]

Wait… I think watching panchos interview with Jesse (Yoatzi’s ex) things that they are saying line up with what Jesse said?? I think Yoatzi may not realize where she may be wrong in the relationship. Bc from the way Alex is expressing himself as far as lk “how they met” & they’re relationship.. it seems toxic too. Alex seems lk a good guy & honestly Jesse too. Not saying Jesse wasn’t wrong but like Jesse said in the interview men don’t really express or talk to someone when they’re relationship doesn’t feel right. Idk lol maybe Yoatzi needs time to focus on herself learn to love herself & find her person. Wishing them all the best ❤

[@HonnBunn]

Cutting social media and family/friends out of our life was the best thing for me and my bfs relationship because i was struggling alot looking around seeing everyone married and kids with houses and cars and I thought I was behind in life I would cry trying so hard to be like them until I started to just live in the moment and let us go at our own pace we are so much happier now ❤

[@yvettetorres7910]

Yoatzi- I see growth in you, and I think there’s still a lot more self healing to be done, because then we can be self damaging to our relationships , love, family and friends. But I see love between you too. And it takes a real man to love and raise a son that isn’t his.I have a man like that my self and I’m continuously working on my self to make sure that I don’t ruin the most precious thing I have, my family. Don’t let social media or those expectations on what your life “should” be by now . This is your life , take it day by day

For Yoatzi I feel that your relationship with Alex could have grown and it can still flourish with your patience and teaching Alex as you go. It can become a great freindship or a greater soon wife & husband one day. Please keep trying and maybe in the future this can go somewhere 🎉❤

[@oralysr5759]

Louieeee you’re a therapist honeyyyyy! Take your time guys if things are meant to be they will be. Just my two cents I understand the kids are in between but the low key flirting and still often seeing each other can also suppress you getting better -distance and STRICTLY speaking only of kids can do wonders.

ALEX IS A GREAT MAN PERIOD!!!!! ANY WOMAN WOULD BE LUCKY TO HAVE SUCH A GREAT BOYFRIEND, PARTNER , FATHER. FROM WHAT IS OBVIOUS YOATZI BASICALLY BROKE UP QITH HIM. FOR BEING A BETTER FATHER TO HER KIDS THAN A BOYFRIEND! FEEL LUCKY YOU HAVE A MAN THAT STEPPED UP!!!!

[@maamaas]

My assumption... She has a fairytale vision of the marriage title and a lil immature for being the older 1 she wants him to be more financially stable and perfect as if she is and she's confused af still finding herself so idk why all the pressure is on him if he's doing what he can she's not taking any self accountability cus she feels she made it already...I think she wants a open relationship OR wants to have fun and fuck around lmao.. if she was willing to start talking to him before fully leaving her baby daddy idk.. if she wanted a family she would fight for their love, they can work on themselves and still be together if she would help him grow as much as he's helping her grow

[@karlacienfuegos6212]

Everyone has different time lines and not everyone’s relationship starts the same way. Personally I have been with my man 11yrs, but I would have never married this man in my early/mid twenties. We were both so young and going through person growth. Now im in my early 30’s and I feel like we’re getting to that point of taking the next step. Marriage is not a game, and everyone’s relationship is different. Nobody should be pressured by anyone to take that step. Props to you guys and I hope you stay close always and stay in each others lives🤍🤍🤍🤍❤️❤️❤️❤️

35:55 & 37:37 is where the summary of the issue is in my perspective, You seem like good people and are on the right track so as long as y’all don’t drag extra s (other partners) into this situation you’re good.
