Yeah, well, yeah, 57 00:02:29,440 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 4: it's an awkward one.

There's no mum in the picture. Okay, the 66 00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 3: only sensible thing to do was for her to go 67 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 3: and sleep with her friends dead now, eye for an eye, 68 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: father for a father, All said and done, What would 69 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,959 Speaker 3: you do in this situation?

And like 80 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 2: is she sitting on his lap? 81 00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 4: And okay, all right? 82 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 1: The hits that JOHNA and Ben podcast in the middle of. 83 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 4: Today is dem Meghan our DM today that someone's lead 84 00:03:36,040 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 4: into your DMS? Meghan? 85 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, So this is I guess a young woman where 86 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 2: she don't have a lot of details, which you can 87 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: probably understand why when I tell you it's her friend 88 00:03:46,040 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 2: getting together with her dad that been friends for about 89 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: fifteen years, and she's not okay with it.

Sometimes in life you 108 00:04:38,520 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 2: can't help who you fall in love with. That's true, 109 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:46,920 Speaker 2: It is true.

However, lately, I've been noticing every time we 191 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: get intimate. He quickly gets up to make sure the 192 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 2: lights are turned off. It's even gotten to the point 193 00:08:35,600 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 2: now that if I'm getting changed out of my clothes 194 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 2: into my pajamas, he'll either step out of the room 195 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 2: or tell me to go to the bathroom to get changed. 196 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,080 Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm overthinking things, but it's starting 197 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 2: to make me really upset.

He thinks that's especially if it's happening 221 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 2: over and over, like he's turning the lights off. But 222 00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,559 Speaker 2: could it be that he's self conscious? 223 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,000 Speaker 4: Maybe well, yeah, you're right, and he's. 224 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 2: Trying to turn the lights off, and he's like, maybe 225 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,360 Speaker 2: I've got a dad bot or something and I'm feeling 226 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 2: self conscious. 227 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: It's very if he's anything like me. Every time I 228 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 3: steer in the bathroom mirror, a single tear drips down 229 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 3: my cheek.

She sees 241 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:52,719 Speaker 2: everything is fine where best friends, but lately she's been 242 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,240 Speaker 2: noticing that every time they get intimate, he gets up 243 00:10:55,280 --> 00:10:58,199 Speaker 2: to turn the lights off and asks her to go 244 00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 2: into the bathroom when she's getting chain. 245 00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:04,199 Speaker 3: He's putting their love making on Stevie wonder mode. Now, 246 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 3: I guess is another thing. Maybe when the lights are on, 247 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 3: if you're looking around the bedroom, you can see all 248 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 3: the chores that need to be done. You know, it 249 00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:12,840 Speaker 3: can get distracted. 250 00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 2: Do you think he's thinking about that and. 251 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 3: Trying to come up with an excuse? No, yeah, I'm reaching. 252 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, there's some clothes it needs to be 253 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: folded over there, you know, stuff like that. Because the 254 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 3: clincher is he's making a go to the bathroom. So 255 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 3: it's not hone. I still think. 256 00:11:27,160 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 2: How many times did that happen? Was it once or twice? 257 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:31,160 Speaker 2: And was it for another reason? 258 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's the thing. 259 00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if. 260 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:35,679 Speaker 3: He's laying out rose petals on the bead or something. 261 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 4: Not a nice situation for her, especially with her, you 262 00:11:38,160 --> 00:11:40,920 Speaker 4: know what it's doing to her mind, obviously thinking about 263 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:41,400 Speaker 4: it once. 264 00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:45,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, So people are saying, look, how long has 265 00:11:45,360 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 2: this been happening? Is it a new thing? It sounds 266 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,200 Speaker 2: as though he's just started doing it, even though they've 267 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 2: been married fifteen years. Tell the hobby to do the same, 268 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:55,079 Speaker 2: and then ask him what his problem is. Yeah, I 269 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,800 Speaker 2: wonder what would happen if she was like, no, go, 270 00:11:56,840 --> 00:12:01,160 Speaker 2: get changed in the bathroom. 271 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:04,560 Speaker 3: Reversing it, getting a dinner, turning down the light like 272 00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:07,280 Speaker 3: five am mode or something. Yeah, let's get clear on 273 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 3: what do you want to say? What do you want 274 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,080 Speaker 3: to say? To our listeners, they're clear. 275 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:13,840 Speaker 10: Well, yeah, if I text an, I've been with my 276 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:17,600 Speaker 10: partners for eight years and I've never seen him naked, 277 00:12:17,679 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 10: apart from when he's walking around house drunk, and that's 278 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 10: maybe been twice this whole time. But it's mainly because 279 00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 10: he's self conscious. There's absolutely nothing wrong with his body 280 00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:32,240 Speaker 10: at all, but he's just that self conscious that even 281 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 10: during broad daylight, even at nighttime, he will prefer to 282 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 10: be alone. And so I've I've never had a problem 283 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 10: with my body, but the longer I've been with him, 284 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 10: I'm now I'm not self conscious. But because I respect 285 00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:49,559 Speaker 10: his privacy. He respects mine as well, so he doesn't 286 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 10: walk in when I'm in the bathroom or if I'm 287 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 10: getting dressed, he'll get, you know, walk out. But also 288 00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 10: we have children, and at the moment we have a 289 00:12:56,880 --> 00:12:59,440 Speaker 10: nine months old, so we have the monitor on, so 290 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 10: when we are being intimate, I feel like I'm being watched, 291 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 10: even though drop that down or our cats slips in 292 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:12,880 Speaker 10: their room. So sometimes, yeah, weird. 293 00:13:13,280 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 9: But yeah, whether it is a new thing that is 294 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 9: very odd. 295 00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,400 Speaker 10: Maybe maybe he hadn't got a cat. 296 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 11: I don't know. 297 00:13:20,520 --> 00:13:23,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, thank you being so open you she had 298 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 3: wonderful sharing their clar I feel like a teacher at 299 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,800 Speaker 3: primary school called sharing clear. And yes, it is weird 300 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 3: of a cat steering you in the eyeballs when you're 301 00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:30,760 Speaker 3: doing that. 302 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, so well, thank you. 303 00:13:35,240 --> 00:13:37,600 Speaker 3: That's that's clear's thoughts on it. We've got sues on 304 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 3: the phone. What do you want to say? 305 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 9: Well, I was just thinking Meagan said that she thought 306 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 9: it could be him being self conscious with his body. 307 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,079 Speaker 9: But honestly, the fact that he's asking her to move 308 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 9: into the bathroom when she's getting changed does sound like 309 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:55,280 Speaker 9: it's a hymn problem. But it also sounds it sounds 310 00:13:55,320 --> 00:13:57,840 Speaker 9: like it's a hymn problem that she should approach him about. 311 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 9: I feel like it's something they definitely should discuss because 312 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:02,320 Speaker 9: otherwise she's just gonna it's going to be a stand. 313 00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:04,440 Speaker 9: She's going to think more and more into it, and 314 00:14:04,480 --> 00:14:06,079 Speaker 9: it's going to get worse and worse for her in 315 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:06,560 Speaker 9: her head. 316 00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I like, I just I'm hoping that she 317 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 2: is going to the worst case scenario. I'm kind of 318 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 2: hoping there's another reason why he's asking her to go, 319 00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 2: and like, how many times did it happen? Did it 320 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 2: happened once? And maybe he was like, I don't want 321 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,520 Speaker 2: the light on. I'm trying to do something.

We were friends 550 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:42,840 Speaker 2: with the girl first, so I feel like that's where 551 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 2: our loyalty lies.

Here's a controversial opinion, 563 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 3: and this is surrounding wedding days. Is I believe some 564 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 3: brides and grooms are just ready to kick off and 565 00:25:27,119 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 3: just waiting for something to kick off at. 566 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 4: You know, because you're a stressful thing for some. 567 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 3: Of your special day is your special day, and so 568 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 3: you just feel like any slight inconvenience you have the 569 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,240 Speaker 3: right to just fire up at and cause a scene 570 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:39,520 Speaker 3: over it. 571 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:42,679 Speaker 2: It's so stressful and there's so many one other. 572 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:44,760 Speaker 4: Person check them on a table with every other person 573 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,480 Speaker 4: is a cost, won't say that.

My brother 702 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: passed away at the start of the year. 703 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:19,720 Speaker 3: Oh God, what do you have to do that? 704 00:31:19,800 --> 00:31:22,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I was helping out his wife with clearing 705 00:31:22,840 --> 00:31:25,880 Speaker 2: up his admin. I went on his laptop going through 706 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 2: emails to clear up bill payments, et cetera. When I 707 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,560 Speaker 2: discovered that he had emails from another woman. Without going 708 00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 2: into too much information, it became clear he had been 709 00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:38,360 Speaker 2: having an affair for quite some time. He has been 710 00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:40,520 Speaker 2: married to his wife for six years. They have a 711 00:31:40,600 --> 00:31:43,480 Speaker 2: child together, and she is like my best friend. But 712 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:46,600 Speaker 2: needless to say, she has no idea. What do I 713 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 2: do now? Do I tell her and blow up her world? 714 00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:52,920 Speaker 2: Or do I keep his dirty little secret and torment myself? 715 00:31:53,160 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 2: Because right now it's all I can think about when. 716 00:31:55,440 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 3: I'm with her, Oh god, I look like a monster. 717 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:04,000 Speaker 3: First and foremost we'll get out of the way. But secondly, 718 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,680 Speaker 3: just don't say anything. That's my first in sync what 719 00:32:08,040 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 3: he's got. There's nothing he can do to repair it 720 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:12,440 Speaker 3: or explain it, or. 721 00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 4: It's just going to it will tarnish the memory. 722 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 2: You're checking in a grenade into her memory. Yeah, but 723 00:32:20,440 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: make a question everything. So when I think of it 724 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 2: as like a friend, I'm like, well, don't tell her 725 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 2: right then, When I if I'm her and I think. 726 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 4: About it, would you want to know? 727 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 2: I kind of think I would want to know. 728 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 4: That's tough.

So their brother passed away at the start of 764 00:33:56,080 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: the year. They've been helping his wife clear up all 765 00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 2: the admind bills and whatnot, and has discovered on his 766 00:34:02,400 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: laptop that he was cheating on his wife. She has 767 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 2: no idea. They're also very good friends.

It's like, just don't say anything. 774 00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 3: Like when one of us sneakly parks downstairs in the 775 00:34:28,280 --> 00:34:30,920 Speaker 3: client car parks, none of us say anything because you 776 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:32,920 Speaker 3: know that it will cause poor Joe who runs the 777 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 3: building some unduced stress. Okay, we keep it amongst ourselves. 778 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,719 Speaker 4: No harm, no foul, just a grace.

Yeah, like in a lot of ways, 781 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 4: because they probably hold this image of that person and 782 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,759 Speaker 4: then maybe go maybe it wasn't everything I thought the 783 00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 4: person was. 784 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe I didn't know him that well.

She said she can't tolerate 863 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:50,960 Speaker 2: being around him and staying with him twenty four to seven. 864 00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 2: It's actually so upsetting for me because they are two 865 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 2: of the most important people in my life. And to 866 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,680 Speaker 2: make it worse, he doesn't know she doesn't like him. 867 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 2: I can't tell him that she doesn't want to stay 868 00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:07,279 Speaker 2: because of him, but she says she won't come otherwise. 869 00:39:07,800 --> 00:39:09,880 Speaker 2: I feel like I'm going to end up upsetting one 870 00:39:09,920 --> 00:39:11,520 Speaker 2: of them, and I don't know. I don't want to 871 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:11,840 Speaker 2: do that. 872 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,239 Speaker 3: What's he done? What's this guy done? 873 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:16,680 Speaker 2: Actually, I'm glad that was my first question, so I 874 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:20,240 Speaker 2: actually asked a follow up questions. So he made a silly, 875 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 2: drunken comment at the family table at a wedding. So 876 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 2: he made like a joke that didn't go down well. 877 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 3: And you always got to read the room when you're 878 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 3: delivering your comedy to straight to Fair. You know, extended 879 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 3: family liss. 880 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 21: Don't you. 881 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,480 Speaker 2: It was obviously bad enough for the mom to be 882 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 2: like no h in that situation. 883 00:39:39,760 --> 00:39:41,719 Speaker 3: You always hope that someone does something worse than you 884 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 3: at the wedding. You know, someone you know knocks Nanna 885 00:39:44,800 --> 00:39:49,879 Speaker 3: into the cake or something overshadows your terrible moment. 886 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:51,480 Speaker 4: So what do what do we want? We want some 887 00:39:51,600 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 4: advice for her. Yeah, and it's her how she navigates 888 00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 4: this because obviously the mom does want to hang out 889 00:39:57,080 --> 00:39:59,000 Speaker 4: with him, and she doesn't want to. 890 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 3: She's obviously doesn't want the confrontation or the conflict. Then 891 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,840 Speaker 3: I get it, you don't want because then he's going 892 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 3: to feel awkward. She's the best thing. I don't know 893 00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:10,640 Speaker 3: much about family affairs, but the best thing I reckon 894 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:13,960 Speaker 3: is to just suppress it, pretend it doesn't exist, let 895 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 3: it bubble away for a number of years, until it 896 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:20,200 Speaker 3: explodes in a in a volcano of anger. It's like 897 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:21,719 Speaker 3: my ankle's on a long hall flight. 898 00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,240 Speaker 2: I don't know what I would do in that scenario. 899 00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 2: You don't want to cancel the trap, but you don't 900 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,080 Speaker 2: want to push her, your mum into it. 901 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, because normally I would say, you don't have to 902 00:40:31,840 --> 00:40:33,359 Speaker 4: hang out. You don't have to hang out. I mean, 903 00:40:33,400 --> 00:40:36,359 Speaker 4: obviously birthdays and Christmas is, but you're not in a relationship, 904 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:39,040 Speaker 4: you know, mum, and your mom doesn't have to get 905 00:40:39,080 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 4: in the partner, don't have to hang out. No, they 906 00:40:41,080 --> 00:40:44,240 Speaker 4: can be civil, yeah, on the occasions. So going away 907 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 4: feels like a step too far. But you've already committed 908 00:40:46,280 --> 00:40:46,440 Speaker 4: to that. 909 00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,400 Speaker 3: Why don't you just get a separate accommodation in your 910 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 3: own accommodation away from you know, then you just see 911 00:40:52,239 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 3: him pockets. She can kind of play guards. She can go, hey, 912 00:40:54,960 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 3: well let's not go over there, just to do some 913 00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 3: other stuff. 914 00:40:57,160 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 4: You know, she protected I'll hit one of your jokes, 915 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 4: but maybe don't talk to. 916 00:41:01,200 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 2: Anyone and you can tell all your husbands because you're like, well, 917 00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,239 Speaker 2: I just want it to be asked. 918 00:41:06,239 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 22: Just us. 919 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,360 Speaker 4: Imagine these people listening right now that have you know, 920 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,880 Speaker 4: their relationships with where their partner does not get on 921 00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 4: with the parents, and that's I mean, that's that happens, 922 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,280 Speaker 4: that's natural, right, Yeah, I have to get on human behavior. 923 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:19,040 Speaker 4: It makes a heart. 924 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,040 Speaker 3: We did speak to someone on this show actually a 925 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:23,120 Speaker 3: few years ago, and she didn't get along with her 926 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 3: mother in law.

Basically, we did a 944 00:42:13,520 --> 00:42:15,480 Speaker 2: follow up question and found out that the husband made 945 00:42:16,080 --> 00:42:19,120 Speaker 2: an inappropriate joke, a drunken joke at a wedding, and 946 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:23,600 Speaker 2: now her mom doesn't like her husband.

So I think maybe they should 1011 00:45:03,320 --> 00:45:06,160 Speaker 8: just be the wife should tell him that he's offended 1012 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,560 Speaker 8: her at a wedding or when wherever it was, and 1013 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:13,560 Speaker 8: then I don't know, maybe they go and speak to 1014 00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 8: the mother in law. But at the end of the day, 1015 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,000 Speaker 8: the mother in law needs to get over it. 1016 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 3: That's okay. It seems to be that the popular opinion. 1017 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:22,960 Speaker 2: I know, but I hate these confrontational chats. 1018 00:45:23,080 --> 00:45:24,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're so confrontational. 1019 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,880 Speaker 2: You're like, oh, oh god, can you just imagine mediating that. 1020 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:32,840 Speaker 3: I always find the anticipation of those conversations are a 1021 00:45:32,880 --> 00:45:35,239 Speaker 3: lot worse than once you get into them. Everyone's just 1022 00:45:35,320 --> 00:45:38,880 Speaker 3: having open and happy dialogue works for a resolution.

It 1229 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 2: was before we were together, but we hang out all 1230 00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,239 Speaker 2: the time, and I always felt like she didn't like 1231 00:55:03,320 --> 00:55:06,440 Speaker 2: me much. I feel like she he should have told me, 1232 00:55:06,840 --> 00:55:08,640 Speaker 2: and he's been keeping it a secret. 1233 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:09,399 Speaker 1: Now. 1234 00:55:09,600 --> 00:55:12,279 Speaker 2: I don't want them hanging out, especially because she isn't 1235 00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:14,879 Speaker 2: nice to me. It makes me think that she still 1236 00:55:14,920 --> 00:55:17,719 Speaker 2: has feelings for him, and that's where her hostility is 1237 00:55:17,760 --> 00:55:20,440 Speaker 2: coming from. What do I do now? Please? 1238 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:23,560 Speaker 3: I want to know who told her? Like it feels 1239 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 3: like so much time has pasted it. He probably hasn't 1240 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:29,759 Speaker 3: told her because well, to be honest, he wanted to 1241 00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:31,040 Speaker 3: avoid all the conversation. 1242 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:34,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, someone in the friend group. 1243 00:55:34,680 --> 00:55:38,600 Speaker 3: Some loose li it nosey Parker. 1244 00:55:39,520 --> 00:55:42,080 Speaker 4: It's tough though. You can to see from his point 1245 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,920 Speaker 4: of view, like why he didn't want to say anything, 1246 00:55:44,960 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 4: and then you'd probably leave it too long and then 1247 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,040 Speaker 4: you want to go, oh, I guess what. Yeah, by 1248 00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:52,319 Speaker 4: the way this happens, so's I mean? Like, it does 1249 00:55:52,440 --> 00:55:54,160 Speaker 4: feel like you put it in the nice to know 1250 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:56,960 Speaker 4: category in terms of information. It would have been nice 1251 00:55:57,000 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 4: to know. 1252 00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,880 Speaker 3: So, like you say, you would have ripped the plaster 1253 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 3: early on, go hey, we hang out with this person. 1254 00:56:02,800 --> 00:56:05,440 Speaker 3: Might have smooched. We might have smooched back in the day. 1255 00:56:05,360 --> 00:56:07,320 Speaker 2: But hey, more than a smoke. 1256 00:56:07,440 --> 00:56:09,440 Speaker 3: Our rhythm was off, our timing was all out of 1257 00:56:09,520 --> 00:56:11,719 Speaker 3: killed her and it just was never gonna work. Yeah, 1258 00:56:12,239 --> 00:56:14,640 Speaker 3: and so maybe that's the reason, and she got a 1259 00:56:14,680 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 3: partner now this new the friend group. 1260 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:21,560 Speaker 2: Girl doesn't say it, doesn't say, but she's saying, I 1261 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:23,680 Speaker 2: think the bigger problem is that you could be fine 1262 00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:25,759 Speaker 2: if they were just friends and she was nice to you, 1263 00:56:26,280 --> 00:56:29,239 Speaker 2: But she's being unkind to her. So that makes you 1264 00:56:29,520 --> 00:56:33,040 Speaker 2: think that you know, she's still got feeling for the husband. 1265 00:56:33,160 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 3: So the question is does she ban him from seeing 1266 00:56:36,120 --> 00:56:37,080 Speaker 3: her yeah. 1267 00:56:39,120 --> 00:56:39,279 Speaker 16: Or not? 1268 00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:43,240 Speaker 3: Or is she chilled then yeah, and quietly fester away 1269 00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:45,000 Speaker 3: over a number of years until she's. 1270 00:56:45,880 --> 00:56:48,360 Speaker 1: The hits that jonaan Ben podcast. 1271 00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:53,040 Speaker 4: Megan where we get someone sliding into Megan's tms and 1272 00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:55,400 Speaker 4: we get to your thoughts on what they should do 1273 00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:56,440 Speaker 4: with a bit of a dilemma. 1274 00:56:56,760 --> 00:56:59,359 Speaker 2: So the issue is this person found out their husband 1275 00:56:59,400 --> 00:57:01,319 Speaker 2: has slept with one of their friends, that someone they 1276 00:57:01,400 --> 00:57:03,719 Speaker 2: hang out with a lot, but it was before they 1277 00:57:03,719 --> 00:57:06,920 Speaker 2: were together. But she sees she's always felt like she 1278 00:57:07,120 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 2: didn't like her much, so there might be a bit 1279 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,520 Speaker 2: of beef there. And she said, because she doesn't like 1280 00:57:12,600 --> 00:57:15,080 Speaker 2: her much, she said, maybe she still has feelings for him. 1281 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:17,360 Speaker 3: What does she do now I only want to know 1282 00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,800 Speaker 3: how she found out this information.

Really, 1293 00:57:49,880 --> 00:57:51,800 Speaker 4: I mean, it does feel like it'd be quite a 1294 00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:53,680 Speaker 4: big move to go, well, now you can't see each 1295 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:56,840 Speaker 4: other for something that you've only just discovered this happened, 1296 00:57:56,840 --> 00:57:57,720 Speaker 4: but happened years ago. 1297 00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:58,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. 1298 00:57:58,880 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 3: You can't do do the bumping ugliesa can you? The 1299 00:58:02,240 --> 00:58:07,640 Speaker 3: uglies have been bumped, Denise, You're on are not referring 1300 00:58:07,680 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 3: to this lady as and ugly either. I really found 1301 00:58:09,640 --> 00:58:12,280 Speaker 3: myself in a bit of a trip out there. Sorry, Denique, 1302 00:58:12,320 --> 00:58:13,120 Speaker 3: welcome your advice. 1303 00:58:14,280 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 7: So my advice would be there's two things. Guys often 1304 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:22,440 Speaker 7: don't mention exits because for them, it's done. They have 1305 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:26,680 Speaker 7: no relevance in terms of any to them, so he's 1306 00:58:26,760 --> 00:58:29,600 Speaker 7: probably kept her as a friend because their social group 1307 00:58:30,080 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 7: calls for that. However, she should address the behavior with 1308 00:58:34,120 --> 00:58:36,560 Speaker 7: her husband so they can tackle it. In terms of 1309 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 7: what she does with the friends, it's just they don't 1310 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:42,480 Speaker 7: have one on one time they go hang out because 1311 00:58:42,600 --> 00:58:46,240 Speaker 7: I bet someone's told them because she's finding it really 1312 00:58:46,360 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 7: hard seeing them being really happy and living the life 1313 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:53,360 Speaker 7: she probably wanted. So it's just fiteful. So she should 1314 00:58:53,480 --> 00:58:55,800 Speaker 7: just go live her life, be with her husband, and 1315 00:58:55,960 --> 00:59:00,200 Speaker 7: any behaviors that happen that are inappropriate, they should just 1316 00:59:00,240 --> 00:59:02,520 Speaker 7: work it as a team. The point of telling someone 1317 00:59:02,600 --> 00:59:05,720 Speaker 7: this information is to try and get them to not 1318 00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 7: be on the same page and cause a fight. 1319 00:59:07,920 --> 00:59:13,920 Speaker 3: So how much do we have to pay for this season? 1320 00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:18,440 Speaker 7: I'm not qualified, so I can't get paid for it. 1321 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,400 Speaker 7: But I'm just used to all the friends in their 1322 00:59:21,960 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 7: kind of relationships. I've kind of seen when people mention 1323 00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,800 Speaker 7: something far back in the past and it causes harm. 1324 00:59:30,320 --> 00:59:33,720 Speaker 7: It's usually with an intention of causing, you know, the 1325 00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:36,880 Speaker 7: two parties not to talk. For her to tell them 1326 00:59:37,000 --> 00:59:40,240 Speaker 7: to not see her do all this and it takes 1327 00:59:40,240 --> 00:59:43,600 Speaker 7: away actually what needs to be addressed, which is the behavior. 1328 00:59:43,760 --> 00:59:47,640 Speaker 7: So as for example, she doesn't say hi, or say 1329 00:59:47,880 --> 00:59:51,400 Speaker 7: nasty things, or like if they're doing a friends thing, 1330 00:59:51,560 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 7: she tries to isolate. That's where the hubby can come 1331 00:59:54,680 --> 00:59:57,800 Speaker 7: in and be like, don't me and her team, or no, 1332 00:59:58,040 --> 00:59:59,920 Speaker 7: that's not cool if we're not going to do that, 1333 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:02,280 Speaker 7: or she's not invited. You know, we're not going to 1334 01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 7: come that. 1335 01:00:04,520 --> 01:00:09,800 Speaker 3: Denique, that is she's rock solid advice.

Well, it says, hey, 1379 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:02,680 Speaker 2: John Obinier, Meghan. 1380 01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:03,400 Speaker 3: Dump him, dump him. 1381 01:02:04,600 --> 01:02:06,880 Speaker 2: Here is a dear Meghan, dilemma for you. Me and 1382 01:02:06,960 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 2: my fiance to get married in six months. But there 1383 01:02:10,360 --> 01:02:13,000 Speaker 2: is one thing we are disagreeing about, and it has 1384 01:02:13,080 --> 01:02:15,800 Speaker 2: nothing to do with the wedding. I'm keen to join 1385 01:02:16,000 --> 01:02:19,320 Speaker 2: bank accounts, but he really wants to keep secret accounts 1386 01:02:19,440 --> 01:02:22,640 Speaker 2: and keep spending our own money. That just seems weird 1387 01:02:22,680 --> 01:02:25,520 Speaker 2: to me. We are joining together in marriage. To me, 1388 01:02:25,640 --> 01:02:29,720 Speaker 2: that means joining finances as well. All our bills become shared, 1389 01:02:29,920 --> 01:02:32,960 Speaker 2: so why wouldn't our money. Does that mean he's hiding 1390 01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:36,439 Speaker 2: something or is that a normal thing. Appreciate your guys help. 1391 01:02:38,600 --> 01:02:42,600 Speaker 3: It's interesting. I feel like he still is to keep 1392 01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:47,000 Speaker 3: his financial freedom and not you not knowing what he 1393 01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:50,200 Speaker 3: spends his money on. Maybe so yeah, he's hiding stuff. 1394 01:02:50,920 --> 01:02:54,200 Speaker 3: Sometimes we like to go to Burger King, Burgerfield, McDonald's, Wendy's, 1395 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:56,720 Speaker 3: to go back to KFC all on Monday, and we 1396 01:02:56,760 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 3: don't want the shame of that being exposed on our 1397 01:02:58,920 --> 01:02:59,560 Speaker 3: bank accounts. 1398 01:03:00,080 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 4: Tricky one, because you know, I imagine there are some 1399 01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:04,040 Speaker 4: people out there they are in a relationship for many 1400 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:06,520 Speaker 4: years that may have separate bank accounts, And that's why 1401 01:03:06,760 --> 01:03:08,840 Speaker 4: we still have our own separate bank accounts, my wife 1402 01:03:08,880 --> 01:03:11,280 Speaker 4: Amanda and I we've always had. But then you have 1403 01:03:11,360 --> 01:03:13,040 Speaker 4: a sort of a joint account. Yeah, we're in the 1404 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:13,720 Speaker 4: same scenario. 1405 01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:16,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I feel like once you're married, you married, Like 1406 01:03:16,880 --> 01:03:20,040 Speaker 3: if they concern is ownership over how much how much 1407 01:03:20,160 --> 01:03:22,360 Speaker 3: money or finance you bring into the relationship, well then 1408 01:03:22,400 --> 01:03:24,919 Speaker 3: they're going to have half your stuff anyway, right, Yeah, 1409 01:03:25,080 --> 01:03:28,560 Speaker 3: after a certain period of time. So if that's the concern, 1410 01:03:28,640 --> 01:03:31,280 Speaker 3: then you kind of eliminate that by joining bank accounts. 1411 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:33,840 Speaker 2: Because I've always found it weird when someone you have 1412 01:03:34,000 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 2: like a joint account and everyone puts money in, like 1413 01:03:36,280 --> 01:03:39,160 Speaker 2: you split the bills, because not everyone in a relationship 1414 01:03:39,240 --> 01:03:41,960 Speaker 2: earns the same amount of money, right, So like that 1415 01:03:42,200 --> 01:03:45,160 Speaker 2: might be quite hard for someone to pay half if 1416 01:03:45,160 --> 01:03:46,840 Speaker 2: they're not earning as much as someone else. 1417 01:03:47,040 --> 01:03:49,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, automatically, I'm painting him as a villain in my head. 1418 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,920 Speaker 3: He ses holding his onto his cash for nefurious purposes. 1419 01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,120 Speaker 3: It's not the case. No, No, you're right. Maybe it's 1420 01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:59,920 Speaker 3: just genuine like, hey, it's definitely giving off. I don't 1421 01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:02,040 Speaker 3: feel like this is going to last vibes, and I 1422 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,480 Speaker 3: want Les Edmond at the back end of it. But 1423 01:04:04,600 --> 01:04:07,320 Speaker 3: what would you do? Andrew's like, hey, I reckon, we 1424 01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:09,680 Speaker 3: should keep seperate bank accounts heading into this. 1425 01:04:09,840 --> 01:04:11,840 Speaker 4: But it can change though. You can have separate bank 1426 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:13,840 Speaker 4: accounts and a few months later you can go actually 1427 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:15,320 Speaker 4: merge them together. 1428 01:04:16,000 --> 01:04:18,280 Speaker 2: Why Yeah, I don't know. It's not weird. But I've 1429 01:04:18,520 --> 01:04:21,720 Speaker 2: always been the bread winner in the relationship. So Andrew's 1430 01:04:21,760 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 2: quite keen to like bank accounts. 1431 01:04:25,600 --> 01:04:28,200 Speaker 4: Because I know, you know, from time to time you 1432 01:04:28,280 --> 01:04:30,320 Speaker 4: may make a purchase that you don't want Andrew to 1433 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:32,120 Speaker 4: know about what happens in those situations. 1434 01:04:32,440 --> 01:04:38,040 Speaker 3: Credit cards, my friend, r okay, credit cards packages you 1435 01:04:38,120 --> 01:04:38,640 Speaker 3: have tuning up? 1436 01:04:39,000 --> 01:04:41,320 Speaker 2: Can we have a limit though, like you wouldn't spend 1437 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:45,840 Speaker 2: too much over like turn, you wouldn't spin over turndred 1438 01:04:45,840 --> 01:04:46,760 Speaker 2: Bucks without But. 1439 01:04:46,760 --> 01:04:49,280 Speaker 3: Then Bing has said, well, sometimes you could buy something 1440 01:04:49,320 --> 01:04:50,240 Speaker 3: for one nine nine and. 1441 01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:58,520 Speaker 4: Then again for another on the heads four four eight seven, 1442 01:04:59,000 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 4: what should this person do?

So I guess it's a common assation you 1534 01:09:00,640 --> 01:09:02,439 Speaker 2: need to have. But if you have worries about it, 1535 01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 2: you definitely need to talk to them and clear the 1536 01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:07,679 Speaker 2: ear that he's not hiding anything.
