The Yellow Gumball Guy: Entertain ME
Nov 15, 2020
Does it feel like you always have to be entertaining your guy, or he's bored?
A while back I'd started a series assigning a different color or "flavor of attention" to each type of Gumball Guy.
I've already done an episode on the Red Gumball, which is the guy who is all about sex, and the Orange Gumball, which is the guy who wants the intense drama.
In this episode, I talk about the Yellow Gumball, which is the guy who wants you to entertain him or put all your attention on him. He's that guy who is like a giant fussy baby...always too hot, too cold, the music is too loud or not loud enough, he's tired, he's bored at the party asking how much longer you have to stay.
He's looking on his phone rather than paying attention to anyone around him, if the attention isn't on him he's uninterested.
All conversations tend to be about him or things he's interested in. So when it's something you're interested in, you feel like you have a limited amount of time that you can discuss it until he gets bored and changes the subject.
We talk about:
- How to identify if he's a Red, Orange, or Yellow gumball
- How to respond to the Yellow Gumball guy, especially if they're a family member and can't always be avoided
- Why we attract the Yellow Gumball
- Sneak peak of the rest of the upcoming colors
Other episodes mentioned:
- The Red Gumball: sex, porn, strip clubs, prostitutes, want a sexy picture, compliments on body, friends with benefits
- The Orange Gumball: drama. storms out. stonewalls, picks fights. punishes you when you don't do what he wants. calls you crazy. calls you names
