The video begins with Alexa telling her brother, “I've been thinking about it a lot, and I kind of feel like I'm ready for a real relationship and a real boyfriend.”

When her brother responds with a questioning “Okay?” she asks whether he thinks she is ready, saying that she believes she is.

“Maybe you should stop talking to d-----bags, then,” he replies. When Alexa says she doesn't know whether someone is a d-----bag until she starts dating them, her brother pushes back.

“Everyone knows,” he says. “We all can tell except for you.” He then suggests that Alexa look for something less surface-level in her next relationship. She responds that she likes the personalities of the men she has dated in the past.

“You and who else? You and no one else likes their personality,” her brother replies.

The comments can't get enough of their dynamic
