Demetriou, Natasia Concerning Breakup Anxiety and the Marriage Concept
Natasia Demetriou has been candid about her life, whether it’s family or personal, particularly when she appears on The Adam Buxton Podcast. On April 25, 2018, the English comedian paid a visit to her podcaster buddy, Buxton, and delved into her personal life. On November 2, 2018, the podcast’s 82nd episode was released.
Demetriou discussed dealing with breakup grief, the concept of marriage, and why she didn’t want to be in relationships anymore on the podcast. When the conversation turned to couples, Buxton noted Demetriou’s recent separation and inquired how long she and her partner had been together.
The actress responded that she and her lover
had been dating for nearly two years and were having a fantastic time.
She then started telling about her breakup anguish. “I just think breakups are, as humans, not built for them.”
“I’ve had all of them. I’ve had those where you’re like, this is too difficult.
We’re ruining each other’s lives, and it has to stop.
There’s a sense of relief in it because you know this can’t go on.
I’m going to bite the skin off your face right now and enjoy it.”
“But then it’s horrible and tragic,” she continued.
And then there’s a person you were so close to who you can’t speak to because it either ends messy or it’s lovely, polite, and mutual.”
“I believe it’s strange. I’ve been feeling very strongly since’my breakup’ that
I never ever ever ever want to be in a relationship again because I’m like, I can’t go through this again. I’m afraid I can’t.”
“I’m not sure if having someone to hang out with on a Sunday is worth it.
“I’ve felt like I’ve been walking into walls for the past month or so since everything happened,”
Demetriou continued. Buxton then inquired as to if it was the feeling of never finding someone so wonderful again.
“No. Just the feeling that you can’t survive without this person, whatever they are.
“You are unable to function,” Demetriou responded. “As if I need to know what someone ate for dinner.
Why isn’t anyone interested in telling me what they had for dinner? “Why should I worry about what I ate for dinner?” she added.
After addressing that question, Demetriou revealed how she became addicted to hot yoga to cope with her breakup.
She also shared a tale about a man who went through a tough period following a relationship,
lost his job, and subsequently became hooked on hot yoga and published a book about it.
Similarly, she shared another true anecdote she overheard
in the changing area during one of her hot yoga lessons.
It told the story of a woman who had recently lost her spouse and wanted to go on a yoga retreat.
She went on to say that she didn’t want a life like that widowed woman’s.
“She’s just like I’ve got all this love to give, and I don’t know who to give it to,
and I don’t know where to place it, and I keep trying to be like, oh okay, it’s okay come back now,” Demetriou said.
“…come back now, everything is good, and he’s not coming back. And I was all like [crap].
I don’t want to be a woman of 60… I was thinking, “I imagine they had a wonderful life,
it sounds like they had a wonderful marriage, and wow, that’s fantastic.”
Buxton offered another valid point, saying,
“But you don’t want to get into the mindset of, oh, I never want to enter into a relationship because it’ll end.”
“Because someone will die?” Demetriou finished the question.
“Well, I don’t know if that’s accurate Adam because I just believe I was like she’s doing yoga retreat,”
she stated in response to the inquiry. She appears to be in good condition and could live for another 30 years.”
“After 30 years of feeling like this, please come here. I was like, I’m not sure I’m up for it.
I mean, obviously, being a breakee makes me much more sensitive and vulnerable to all of the stuff.”
Natasia Demetriou in ‘What We Do in the Shadows’ as Nadja Doll
As the two pals talked, the actress mentioned her recent breakup.
She indicated that the divorce was not a “right yeah” issue,
but she couldn’t sleep or function and didn’t know what to do. She continued,
“I was like, ‘I’m not up for this again,'” she said. Listen up ladies and gentlemen,
I’m going to marry the next person I meet because I can’t go through this again.
I can’t. “I know it’s just been a month, but it feels like I’ve lived 18 years in the last month,” I say.
While the What We Do in the Shadows actress has stated that she may marry the next person she dates,
she also believes that walking down the aisle is uncomfortable.
“I can’t think of anything more awkward than walking down an aisle,” she added.
Come off it, I mean. It’s extremely romantic holding a bouquet of flowers
and walking down the aisle, especially if you choose the classic one-step, one-step walk. I can’t. It’s very humiliating.”
Later in the podcast, Demetriou explained that she has two personalities:
one that wants to marry and one that doesn’t. “The other half of me is like all I want to do is get married,” she said of the part of her that desires marriage.
“Someone asks me to marry them, someone commits to me, someone gives me a house,
someone gives me a sink, someone tells me everything is going to be okay forever,
and I’ll be protected, and I don’t care whether I’m sad or not passionate about them.”

“I’ll be alright because it’s gorgeous and secure, and it’s life is great,
and it can be nicer when shared with the proper person.”
The London-born comedian also stated that things like loneliness
do not go away when one is committed to someone, as she has experienced loneliness in previous relationships.
“It’s dismal because you’re thinking, ‘but I’m doing it, I’ve got the partner.'”
Demetriou continued. Following that, she and Buxton discussed Demetriou’s parents, her parent’s wedding, and other issues.
However, Demetriou did not reveal the identity of the partner she had broken up with at the time,
which remains unknown to this day. Furthermore, her current relationship status is unknown;
hence, it is impossible to say whether she is dating a boyfriend or has a spouse.
There had previously been reports that the comedian was pregnant
and expecting a child, but those allegations were never addressed.
