Segment details
0:11–0:11 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_4A lot of people ask me, Daniel, since you

Segment details
0:21–0:22 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_8Why don't you ask your wife to have an
Segment details
0:22–0:24 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_9open marriage?
Segment details
0:24–0:24 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_10And first of all, she would never agree to
Segment details
0:25–0:29 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_11that, because if she would agree to it,
Segment details
0:29–0:32 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_12then I wouldn't have had any problems with
Segment details
0:32–0:34 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_13cheating.
Segment details
0:34–0:34 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_14She wouldn't have minded.
Segment details
0:35–0:36 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_15But obviously she does mind, and she gets
Segment details
0:36–0:38 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_16very upset when I

0:38–0:39 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_17meet other women and think about other
Segment details
0:41–0:43 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_18women and even talk about other women.
Segment details
0:43–0:45 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_19So I think it's fairly obvious that an
Segment details
0:45–0:49 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_20open relationship is out of the question.
Segment details
0:49–0:51 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_21I know lots of people are happy in open
Segment details
0:54–0:57 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_22relationships, and for many people, open
Segment details
0:57–0:59 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_23relationships are a great idea.
Segment details
0:59–1:01 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_24But I think you need to have a certain
Segment details
1:03–1:04 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_25degree of self-confidence, and you need to
Segment details
1:04–1:08 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_26be able to feel comfortable with yourself
Segment details
1:08–1:10 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_27and not be a kind of person who gets very
Segment details
1:11–1:13 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_28jealous or insecure to be okay with an

1:14–1:17 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_29open relationship.
Segment details
1:17–1:18 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_30And honestly speaking, I just don't feel
Segment details
1:18–1:20 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_31like I'm that person.
Segment details
1:20–1:21 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_32My ideal relationship would be— I would be
Segment details
1:22–1:25 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_33able to meet and kerfundle any woman that
Segment details
1:25–1:29 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_34I would like to.
Segment details
1:29–1:30 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_35Oh look, there's a boat.
Segment details
1:31–1:32 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_36Yeah, my ideal relationship would be I
Segment details
1:36–1:38 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_37would be able to meet up with any woman
Segment details
1:38–1:39 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_38that I would like to whenever I wanted to,
Segment details
1:39–1:41 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_39and then I would have a main woman and she
Segment details
1:42–1:46 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_40would only be able to see me
Segment details
1:46–1:47 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_41and she's not allowed to see other guys.
Segment details
1:49–1:50 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_42I think that would be the ideal situation,
Segment details
1:50–1:53 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_43but that's just fantasy.
Segment details
1:53–1:55 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_44That's just like what I fantasize.
Segment details
1:55–1:57 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_45I also fantasize about being a

Segment details
2:07–2:08 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_50And it's not really the end of the world
Segment details
2:08–2:09 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_51if they don't come true.
Segment details
2:09–2:10 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_52Sometimes you just have to accept the
Segment details
2:11–2:14 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_53facts that we aren't the king of the

Segment details
4:00–4:01 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_87Oh yeah, Japanese— I mean, open
Segment details
4:02–4:04 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_88relationships.
Segment details
4:04–4:05 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_89Even if my wife agreed to having an open
Segment details
4:07–4:10 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_90relationship, I don't think I would be
Segment details
4:10–4:12 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_91happy with an open relationship either,
Segment details
4:12–4:15 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_92because even though it sounds great— I get

Segment details
4:27–4:29 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_97upset— that sounds not too bad.
Segment details
4:29–4:30 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_98I wouldn't mind that.
Segment details
4:30–4:31 · rev_825480ac58f1a3d7e929fc0d06028629_99But the problem is it would mean that she,
