1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:03,880
Speaker 1: My best friend told me my boyfriend is her soulmate

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 1: because the universe said so, So who am I just

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: say no to the universe. For context, I met my

4
00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 1: best friend Julie when we were in middle school. After

5
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: we met, we became friends pretty quickly because we were

6
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,960
Speaker 1: the same age and had a couple of mutual friends.

7
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:26,000
Speaker 2: By the way, this.

8
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: Comes from historical Lunch nine oh three on the Okay

9
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:32,559
Speaker 1: storytime suburden. So after hanging out a few times, we

10
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,479
Speaker 1: discovered we had the same birthday.

11
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,280
Speaker 2: So we bonded a lot over that and basically built

12
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 2: our whole friendship around it.

13
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:39,240
Speaker 3: All.

14
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 4: Okay, sweet, Okay, they're middle schoolers.

15
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:46,160
Speaker 2: Yeah they're like our friendship was gonna last forever.

16
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 4: Yeah, we basically started our friendship. Had the same birthday

17
00:00:49,040 --> 00:00:51,879
Speaker 4: every year. Yeah, so we were best for my birthday parties.

18
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 4: We celebrated our first birthday as friends together, and every

19
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 4: single birthday together since.

20
00:00:58,040 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 2: So sweet.

21
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:02,320
Speaker 1: We were inseparable all throughout school and spent every moment

22
00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:05,200
Speaker 1: we could together. We lived together for years and worked

23
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 1: together for a while or two. Julie had a hard

24
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 1: home life growing up, so my family became her family

25
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 1: over time.

26
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:13,040
Speaker 2: She was basically a sister to me.

27
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:15,119
Speaker 1: One day, when Julie and I were at the bowling

28
00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: alley in the city we live in, we met a

29
00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: guy named Finn. Finn and his friends ended up hanging

30
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,840
Speaker 1: out with us for a while after we were finishing bowling,

31
00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: and we all exchanged social media's. Julie and I became

32
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,479
Speaker 1: really good friends with Finn, and we all hung out

33
00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:31,399
Speaker 1: a lot after that. A couple months past then, Julie

34
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,559
Speaker 1: and Finn started talking. They went out on a couple

35
00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:36,600
Speaker 1: of dates, but after a few weeks, Finn told Julie

36
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 1: that he wasn't really feeling a romantic connection with her

37
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:41,720
Speaker 1: and he wanted to stay friends. Julie didn't express much

38
00:01:41,720 --> 00:01:44,520
Speaker 1: emotion about it to me, but apparently she didn't take

39
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 1: it well and the feeling wasn't mutual, according to Finn.

40
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: After that, Julie was still friends with Finn, but obviously

41
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,360
Speaker 1: tried avoiding him. For a while, things were awkward between them,

42
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: but once they started seeing other people, it wasn't really

43
00:01:57,240 --> 00:01:59,800
Speaker 1: a thing anymore. After a year and a half passed,

44
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 1: Finn and I got a lot closer. When I finally

45
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: got out of a really long and messy relationship, we

46
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: ended up going to see a movie one day, and

47
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: one thing led to another. When I told Julie that

48
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: I was seeing Finn, she did not take it well.

49
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 1: She told me that she wished I would have told

50
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: her I was thinking about dating him so she could

51
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,960
Speaker 1: talk me out of it. I told her it had

52
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 1: been a while since they saw each other and I

53
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,519
Speaker 1: wouldn't get invested enough for him to hurt me. She

54
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:27,560
Speaker 1: tried to convince me for the first few months of

55
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 1: our relationship that it was a bad idea, but after

56
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: Julie realized she was getting nowhere, she backed off. For

57
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: the most part, everything was pretty normal. I would try

58
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 1: to hang out with Julian Finn separately for the most

59
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 1: part so things wouldn't be awkward. But there were a

60
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: few weird moments when they crossed paths. For example, one time,

61
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: Finn was leaving my house when Julie pulled in to

62
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: come pick me up. I looked out my window when

63
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 1: he was walking to his car, and when Julie passed

64
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: him to come in, she said something to him and

65
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: her body language seemed off. Then she came in the

66
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: house and when she walked into my room, she said,

67
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,560
Speaker 1: I just saw Finn on my way out and he

68
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: seemed really antsy. Maybe he was just in a hurry,

69
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: but something wasn't right about him. Then proceeded to convince

70
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 1: me to check his location throughout the day to make

71
00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 1: sure he wasn't cheating.

72
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,600
Speaker 2: Ew Girl, girls.

73
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,519
Speaker 4: She's making I feel like I feel like she was

74
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 4: the one that was antsy and she was the one

75
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 4: that's off, and that's just spreading lies, lies, sabotage.

76
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 2: I didn't think much of it at the time and

77
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 2: just thought she was concerned for me.

78
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 1: Once our birthday rolled around this year, things started to

79
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:32,120
Speaker 1: go downhill. Julie and I decided to plan two small

80
00:03:32,160 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: parties together this year, one with my family, one with hers.

81
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: Our friends were invited to both. The day Julie planned

82
00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 1: the party with her family ended up being the same

83
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: day as Finn's little brother's band concert. I really wanted

84
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 1: to go because I'm really close with his family, especially

85
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,920
Speaker 1: his little brother. I told Julie I might go to

86
00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: the concert and show up to the party late after

87
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 1: the concert is over, and she flipped out about it.

88
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: We got into a huge argument about it that lasted

89
00:03:57,560 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: a few days, and I ultimately decided to go to

90
00:04:00,640 --> 00:04:03,000
Speaker 1: the concert. The party with my family went great, but

91
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 1: I did notice that Julie was pretty short with me

92
00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 1: throughout the day. At the party with her family, there

93
00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 1: were a lot of people, so Julie was running around

94
00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:12,280
Speaker 1: a lot, talking to everyone and getting all the food made.

95
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: After most of her family left, a couple of our friends,

96
00:04:15,240 --> 00:04:18,360
Speaker 1: Julie and I were sitting around the bonfire in her backyard.

97
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,440
Speaker 1: After the conversation stopped out of nowhere, Julie said to me,

98
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: it's such a beautiful night, and I'd love to take

99
00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: a walk through the field. Sounds like she's gonna attack you.

100
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,040
Speaker 2: What is she gonna do it? What was she gonna do?

101
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 2: She's like, it is such a beautiful night. The moon

102
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 2: is so bright and full. Don't mind my knife.

103
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: She asked me to go with her. I hesitated at first,

104
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: but she convinced me that it would be a short walk.

105
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:47,960
Speaker 2: That's worse it's gonna be.

106
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 4: It won't take lot, you won't need it, you won't

107
00:04:52,800 --> 00:04:54,039
Speaker 4: be cold.

108
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: She led me down a path through the woods beside

109
00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,479
Speaker 1: her house that led to a clearing. I couldn't really

110
00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,720
Speaker 1: tell where I I was because it was dark outside.

111
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,719
Speaker 1: After we got about ten steps into the field, she

112
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: stopped and paused for a minute. I asked her, are

113
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 1: we finished walking? And she turned around and said to me,

114
00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:15,320
Speaker 1: I brought you out here because there's something really important

115
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:18,480
Speaker 1: I need to tell you. I'm awaw wolf, I'm I'm

116
00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: aware wolf, and I'm a vampire and I'm gonna attack you, right,

117
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,679
Speaker 1: I'm gonna attack you. The moon is sturting me into

118
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 1: it to both yes. I said, okay, is it bad?

119
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,159
Speaker 1: And she goes, I'm really sorry if this hurts you,

120
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,320
Speaker 1: but you deserve to know. Finn Lassiter is my soulmate

121
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 1: and you too, aren't meant to be together. Even if

122
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 1: he's not mine right now, he will be and the

123
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,479
Speaker 1: universe will make sure of it. I needed to tell

124
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:43,479
Speaker 1: you because I don't want you to be blindsided when

125
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,560
Speaker 1: your heart gets broken.

126
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:47,040
Speaker 2: Uh.

127
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: I just stood there, speechless for what felt like minutes.

128
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,520
Speaker 1: I felt more unsafe in that moment than ever in

129
00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 1: my whole life. All that could come out of my

130
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:58,039
Speaker 1: mouth was you're crazy. And I turned around and never

131
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: walked faster. I walked right up to my friend Layla

132
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,880
Speaker 1: and said, Laila, I have to go right now. Please

133
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 1: take me home. She said, is everything okay? And I

134
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,040
Speaker 1: told her we have to get in the car right now, please.

135
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: So we got in the car and left. Layla asked

136
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,960
Speaker 1: me what happened, and after I told her, she looked

137
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: shocked and said, oh my god. I didn't think she

138
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,479
Speaker 1: was serious. I asked her what she meant, and she

139
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 1: told me that Julie I had been becoming spiritual lately.

140
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:21,120
Speaker 1: I had no idea about this and asked her what

141
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 1: she meant. Leayla said she didn't know about all the

142
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 1: details about it, but Julie had been telling her about

143
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,799
Speaker 1: going on a spiritual journey and talking to higher beings lately.

144
00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: Layla also said she saw what she described as a

145
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 1: very dedicated shrine in Julie's closet the last time she

146
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: was in a room that wasn't there before. Julie told

147
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: Layla she had been using a pendulum recently to ask

148
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,679
Speaker 1: it yes or no questions to see the future. Julie

149
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,560
Speaker 1: showed Leyla how to use it and they both asked questions.

150
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: Then Julie asked the pendulum do I have a soulmate?

151
00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,800
Speaker 1: And the pendulum said yes. Then she asked, is my

152
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 1: soulmate Finn Lassiter and the pendulum said yes. Well, there

153
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:58,800
Speaker 1: you have it up. You have to wake up, you

154
00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,159
Speaker 1: have to break up. I don't make the rules. The

155
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 1: universe does. Universe does exactly tell. I wonder what Finn's

156
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: reaction would because interested in her at all, Go to Finn.

157
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,600
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe it'll change now that. Yeah, the universe has

158
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 1: on it. Yeah, Leila said. Julie's demeanor didn't change after that,

159
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:19,640
Speaker 1: and she didn't seem surprised. She just smiled and laughed

160
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,320
Speaker 1: a little and continued to ask something else. By the way,

161
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 1: you can smile and laugh a little with us by

162
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,120
Speaker 1: joining us live every weekday at three pm.

163
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: PSD on YouTube.

164
00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: Just tap her profile, just tap it, and there is

165
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,920
Speaker 1: a little bit left. But maybe don't be friends with Julie.

166
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think that's a good I think that's a

167
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,760
Speaker 4: good choice. Maybe maybe we're not friends with Julie right now.

168
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 2: Maybe we don't make friends with werewolves.

169
00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:48,280
Speaker 1: Or or or vampires or people who rely on pendulums

170
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 1: for answers.

171
00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:54,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's just this just feels so it feels so

172
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:54,720
Speaker 4: high school.

173
00:07:54,840 --> 00:07:58,320
Speaker 1: So maybe even younger than that, maybe maybe even eighth grade.

174
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like it's just like, sorry, I'm let's tell you.

175
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: The only reason I'm like it might be high school

176
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,000
Speaker 1: is because she said that she's been dating Finn for months. Yeah,

177
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,320
Speaker 1: and then they worked together, and they worked together. I

178
00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 1: feel like it's gotta be it's gonna be older. But yeah,

179
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:16,000
Speaker 1: it's just like high school. But they haven't progressed since

180
00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:16,480
Speaker 1: eighth grade.

181
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:19,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's still this still got eighth grade mindsets.

182
00:08:20,640 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: I haven't talked to Julie since this happened, and I

183
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:25,000
Speaker 1: don't know if I can or what to say. I

184
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 1: never would have seen this coming. I've spent more time

185
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 1: with this girl than anyone else in the world. And yeah,

186
00:08:29,920 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 1: the past couple months we have been a little distant

187
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: and she has acted a little strange when she ends up.

188
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,319
Speaker 2: Being around my boyfriend.

189
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,120
Speaker 1: But this I called Finn after Leila told me everything

190
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: in the car, and he couldn't believe it either. He

191
00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,199
Speaker 1: said he always thought maybe she didn't get over him

192
00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: because of how she took it when he ended things,

193
00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: But this was wild. I honestly don't know how to

194
00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: move on ever since it happened. It's all I can

195
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: think about, and I don't know if I can talk

196
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 1: about it with any of my friends because all my

197
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:57,000
Speaker 1: friends are Julie's friends, and I don't want to cause

198
00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,200
Speaker 1: any drama in the group, so I just had to

199
00:08:59,240 --> 00:08:59,559
Speaker 1: get it.

200
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:00,440
Speaker 2: All off my mind.

201
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: Fake names for anonymity, So I guess Finn Lassiter.

202
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,320
Speaker 2: Is not his real name.

203
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:07,319
Speaker 5: Wow.

204
00:09:07,360 --> 00:09:10,959
Speaker 2: And that's the end. Wow, that is the end.

205
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess Julie is no longer your friend despite

206
00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:17,559
Speaker 1: your strong bond of having the same birthday.

207
00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:18,080
Speaker 2: Wow.

208
00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:22,600
Speaker 4: That's really disappointing. Yeah, disappointing that the universe, you know,

209
00:09:22,920 --> 00:09:25,679
Speaker 4: gave you the same birthday but then then took away

210
00:09:25,920 --> 00:09:27,320
Speaker 4: Famlassador from Julie.

211
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's great un versus a strange place sometimes, right.

212
00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 2: But that is the end of that story. Wow, We'll

213
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:37,600
Speaker 2: see you next time.

214
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,040
Speaker 4: My maid of honor faked a pregnancy to announce at

215
00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 4: my party just.

00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:45,320

229
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,080

00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:21,760
Speaker 2: only child.

231
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 4: My parents died in a car accident and I was

00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:26,360
Speaker 4: in foster care until I was eighteen.

233
00:10:26,679 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 5: Whoa, Oh, my god, whoa.

234
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 4: Due to my high test scores, I got a full

235
00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 4: ride scholarship and chose to go to my parents' alma mater.

236
00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,320
Speaker 4: Excuse any typos, I can't find my glasses. Well, we

237
00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,880
Speaker 4: stayed up studying, and when I graduated, I basically mentored

238
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 4: her and pushed her to complete her master's.

239
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:44,520
Speaker 2: She's amazing.

240
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:48,960

241
00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:50,240
Speaker 4: who was mail forty.

242
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 2: So back to the story.

243
00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:56,920
Speaker 4: We were excited for her upcoming wedding started planning like immediately.

244
00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:58,960
Speaker 4: She asked me to be her maid of honor. Of

245
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 4: course I accepted. Her fiance comes from money and loves

246
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:06,559
Speaker 4: her so much. They are adorable. Her mom, Nancy is

247
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 4: amazing too, and her father died six months ago and

248
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:13,520
Speaker 4: she's still struggling with it. Oh my goodness, Wow, he

249
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:16,080
Speaker 4: was a great guy. Cat and her fiance Will were

250
00:11:16,120 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 4: planning on having her dad walk her down the aisle.

251
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 4: Will's dad graciously stepped forward and offered to walk her

252
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,080
Speaker 4: down the aisle. All that's cute. There was not a

253
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:26,120
Speaker 4: dry eye in the room when he did that. The

254
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 4: couple accepted. Now here comes the drama. Kat's mom found

255
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:34,760
Speaker 4: out and was livid. She said, no, no, no, your

256
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 4: brother can walk you down the aisle because he's family.

257
00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:41,320
Speaker 2: Oh no, no, you can mind your own business because

258
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:42,560
Speaker 2: it's not your wedding.

259
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's gonna be your family, like yeah, as

260
00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:47,160
Speaker 4: soon as she gets walked down the aisle.

261
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Speaker 2: Literally at the end of the aisle, he'll be her family. Yeah,

262
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 2: so it doesn't matter.

263
00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:54,559
Speaker 4: The future in laws are great people and accepted Cat

264
00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:57,880
Speaker 4: right away. Kat told her mom that her brother Nigel forty,

265
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 4: can walk her down too. Mom wasn't having it. It

266
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:04,319
Speaker 4: was Nigel only, or she would have had to walk

267
00:12:04,400 --> 00:12:08,720
Speaker 4: down alone. No, this lady has been so nice and helpful,

268
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:12,160
Speaker 4: but just became unhinged right before our eyes. Cat runs

269
00:12:12,160 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 4: out crying and Will follows her to calm her.

270
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:15,280
Speaker 5: Down.

271
00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 4: Everyone goes off on Nancy. Of course, she doesn't care

272
00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 4: and leaves two. Cat reached out to Nigel and lo

273
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:25,520
Speaker 4: and behold, he knew nothing.

274
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: Of Nancy's plans. So the problem is solved.

275
00:12:28,440 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 5: Right. Wrong.

276
00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:30,800
Speaker 3: Wrong.

277
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,840
Speaker 4: Nancy proceeds to message the two bridesmaids and myself, trying

278
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:36,040
Speaker 4: to get us on her side.

279
00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:38,160
Speaker 2: We were not having it.

280
00:12:38,679 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 4: She threatens to not come to the wedding if Nigel

281
00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,280
Speaker 4: isn't walking Cat down the aisle.

282
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,559
Speaker 2: Cat says, okay, fine, don't come as Cat.

283
00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:50,200
Speaker 4: You're fast forward a week before the wedding and mother

284
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 4: and daughter make up and the father in law will

285
00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:53,720
Speaker 4: walk her down the aisle.

286
00:12:53,760 --> 00:12:55,559
Speaker 2: The week goes by with no problems at all.

287
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,720
Speaker 4: Day of the wedding, Nancy walks in, looking beautiful in

288
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:02,920
Speaker 4: her coral dress. Mixtures are taken, caterers are perfect, decorations,

289
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,440
Speaker 4: Chef kisses all around.

290
00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 2: There was a table with photos of Cat and her

291
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 2: dad on the side. Oh that's sweet love. It was beautiful,

292
00:13:10,960 --> 00:13:11,600
Speaker 2: she says.

293
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,720
Speaker 4: The church has a huge angel statue with a found

294
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:18,319
Speaker 4: out front, and many pictures were taken there. The ceremony

295
00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 4: went off without a hitch. The reception was.

296
00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,959
Speaker 2: In the church's ballroom area, and it was beautiful.

297
00:13:24,080 --> 00:13:27,360
Speaker 4: Nancy behaved herself and as a reward, Kat had the

298
00:13:27,440 --> 00:13:30,840
Speaker 4: DJ advise a brother and the bride dance in place

299
00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,680

00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:39,560
Speaker 4: everything was working.

302
00:13:39,240 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 2: Out so nice, Nancy Bald. I want to keep reading this.

Speaker 4: away from the festivities for a breath of fresh air.

305
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:53,800
Speaker 4: We were standing in front of the angel statue and

306
00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:54,680

Speaker 4: He pointed at the stars in the sky and I

313
00:14:11,800 --> 00:14:14,680

00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 4: Of course, I started tearing up, and before he could finish,

317
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:30,000
Speaker 4: I said, yes, yes, yes. We kissed and hugged and

318
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 4: enjoyed the moment together under the stars.

319
00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:35,160
Speaker 1: Wait wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, yeah, are they

320
00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 1: They're at the wedding.

321
00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 4: They literally took a second to get for some fresh air,

322
00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 4: and then he's like, I'm sorry.

323
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:42,840
Speaker 2: I hate this guy.

324
00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:47,400
Speaker 1: I hate any man unless they got explicit permission from

325
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:51,320
Speaker 1: Cat to propose at this wedding. No.

326
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 4: Before we went back inside, I said, oh no, oh no,

327
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:57,560
Speaker 4: I can't wear the ring inside. People will notice I'm

328
00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 4: not taking the spotlight away from my friend. He put

329
00:14:59,880 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 4: it back in the box, but I was still pretty giddy.

330
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 4: We went back to the reception and the photographer must

331
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 4: have noticed us at our table just smiling at each

332
00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 4: other and started taking photos of us and said that

333
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,360
Speaker 4: we were a beautiful couple.

334
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:13,000
Speaker 2: The night ends perfectly.

335
00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 4: Two months later, Eric and I take Kat and her

336
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:18,640
Speaker 4: husband out to dinner and by now I'm wearing the ring.

337
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 4: Kat notices immediately. She screamed and jumped around hugging me,

338
00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,880
Speaker 4: and everyone looked at us like we were crazy. She

339
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 4: looked at them and said, my Bestiaet is getting married.

340
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,600
Speaker 4: The whole restaurant upouted and I was a beaming. That

341
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,320
Speaker 4: is so sweet. Okay, this is goat, this is cue cute.

342
00:15:37,840 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 4: Kat said details details now, I said, no, no, I'll

343
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,760
Speaker 4: tell you later. She wouldn't let it go. She kept

344
00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 4: asking Eric, and he said he wasn't allowed. We all

345
00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 4: know why. I didn't want to say anything, but the

346
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,600
Speaker 4: whole night she kept asking. So I relayed the moment

347
00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 4: and her face dropped.

348
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 2: Here we go. Uh oh.

349
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,600
Speaker 4: She finally spoke and said, at my wedding. You got

350
00:15:58,640 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 4: engaged at my wedding. How could you do that to me?

351
00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:04,800
Speaker 4: I explained to her that no one was outside. It

352
00:16:04,920 --> 00:16:07,960
Speaker 4: was just us. My family didn't even know yet. They

353
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:10,200
Speaker 4: were the first to know. Wow, two months Saves kept

354
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:15,440
Speaker 4: this secret. Yeah, only impressive. I not took a lang.

355
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I if I kind of knew what might happen,

356
00:16:19,600 --> 00:16:21,640
Speaker 1: I'd be like after your wedding.

357
00:16:21,760 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: We went home and we were outside. It was beautiful, right,

358
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:28,400
Speaker 2: like walking out we were about to found yeah.

359
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 4: Something, just like something so it's like nice, twisted just

360
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:32,520
Speaker 4: for her, twisted.

361
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,600
Speaker 2: A little bit. Yeah. Yeah.

362
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,120
Speaker 4: We tried calming her down and she got up and

363
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:38,800
Speaker 4: left right when the meals were placed on the table.

364
00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 4: We left with our doggy bags because I had lost

365
00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,280
Speaker 4: my appetite with the no one's eating not my mind, Yeah,

366
00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,760
Speaker 4: and no one's eating that ding it I tried messaging

367
00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 4: and calling her, and she blocked me.

368
00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:51,400
Speaker 5: Like what the heck?

369
00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 4: She even blocked Eric, Facebook blocked, X blocked, the Graham blocked.

370
00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:00,760
Speaker 4: At this point, I give up. I just she would

371
00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 4: reach out to me when she was ready. Woke up

372
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 4: to a barrage of text from none other than.

373
00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:09,720
Speaker 2: Nancy, Kat's mom. I knew Nancy would get involved. Of course,

374
00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 2: here comes Nancy knew it. How dare you ruin my

375
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 2: daughter's wedding? Who does that?

376
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 4: I tried to explain that no one knew until I

377
00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 4: told Kat months later. This lady actually fixed her mouth

378
00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:27,320
Speaker 4: to tell me that I should have made up something else,

379
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,720
Speaker 4: or to take it to my grave.

380
00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 2: Hilar Is, it probably should have made something else. Yeah, maybe,

381
00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:35,720
Speaker 2: I mean she doesn't. She shouldn't be upset. But if

382
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,480
Speaker 2: you knew that, she might be just right? So you

383
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:39,920
Speaker 2: did a white lie? Mind you.

384
00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 4: She told everyone in our circle, but everyone else is

385
00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 4: on my side. Understandably, Eric proposed to me outside in

386
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,400
Speaker 4: away from everyone. We didn't say anything about our engagement,

387
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,600
Speaker 4: just to avoid this very issue.

388
00:17:53,680 --> 00:17:56,560
Speaker 2: After months of silence, Kat calls me and wants to

389
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:57,080
Speaker 2: have lunch.

390
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:57,719
Speaker 4: I accept it.

391
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,600
Speaker 2: I asked her to be my maid of honor, and

392
00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:00,480
Speaker 2: she accepted.

393
00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 5: Yay.

394
00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:03,919
Speaker 2: Oh, I don't know.

395
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 1: I don't know if I would ask someone who I

396
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:09,240
Speaker 1: haven't you know, talked to in month.

397
00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:10,480
Speaker 5: Yeah. Close.

398
00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 4: I'm assuming like they've been Bessie's forever. The families are close,

399
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:19,600
Speaker 4: you know. I'm assuming they talked about that at the

400
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,040
Speaker 4: lunch and then it kind.

401
00:18:20,920 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 2: Of carried on to that.

402
00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:22,240
Speaker 5: Interesting.

403
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,560
Speaker 4: Interesting because Kat was the one that wanted to have lunch.

404
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:28,480
Speaker 4: We hugged and reconciled, or so I thought. By the way,

Speaker 1: That bit.

409
00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,080
Speaker 4: Months before my wedding, a couple of my bridesmaids invited

410
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:42,000
Speaker 4: me out to a lunch and dropped a bombshell on me.

411
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,920
Speaker 4: Kat was still upset and planned to announce her pregnancy

412
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,399
Speaker 4: during the maid of honor toasts.

413
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:49,880
Speaker 3: What the heck?

414
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, no, no.

415
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:56,000
Speaker 4: Right away, I was happy for her. Bessie is pregnant.

416
00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:58,600
Speaker 4: I'm excited to be an auntie. However, one of the

417
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:04,080
Speaker 4: bridesmaids said, no, no baby, there's no baby, She's not pregnant.

418
00:19:04,520 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: Drama. My goodness, she's just making it up.

419
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,240
Speaker 4: She's just trying to steal the spotlight that was never

420
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,919
Speaker 4: even stolen. Stolen for her do the same thing, she

421
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 4: would have to go outside, yeah, and tell sometime her

422
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:20,439
Speaker 4: husband that she's praying and then come back inside and

423
00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,359
Speaker 4: be happy. Yeah, and that's the only thing that she

424
00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:28,719
Speaker 4: can do. Literally, my mouth dropped open. Wtf? Who does this?

425
00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,800
Speaker 4: What happened to my friend? Needless to say, I just

426
00:19:31,880 --> 00:19:34,520
Speaker 4: message her that she's no longer in my wedding and

427
00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:38,320
Speaker 4: congrats on her fake baby. I'll update as soon as

428
00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:42,000
Speaker 4: I can. I need a drink. And that's it. We

429
00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,040
Speaker 4: didn't get anything of that, you know what, not gonna lie.

430
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 4: I probably would go to the friend first and say, hey,

431
00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:53,639
Speaker 4: I heard this from our mutual friends. Yeah, is this true?

432
00:19:54,119 --> 00:19:55,000
Speaker 2: Right right?

433
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:55,840
Speaker 5: Yeah?

434
00:19:55,880 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 2: I think would her?

435
00:19:58,240 --> 00:19:58,480
Speaker 5: Yeah?

436
00:19:58,600 --> 00:19:59,520
Speaker 2: I don't think so either.

437
00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 4: Think that's an option the future, But conversations first is.

438
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:05,320
Speaker 2: Always a good idea.

439
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:05,600
Speaker 5: Yeah.

440
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,520
Speaker 2: Maid of honor, Yeah, I mean that's so sweet.

441
00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,160
Speaker 4: If she if you're willing to make her your maid

442
00:20:12,200 --> 00:20:14,560
Speaker 4: of honor after months of like not talking to her,

443
00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:16,000
Speaker 4: being mad at you, then like there's got to be

444
00:20:16,000 --> 00:20:17,640
Speaker 4: some sort of special relationship there.

445
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:20,280
Speaker 1: Give her one conversation. Yeah that she like you know,

446
00:20:20,359 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 1: she might not. It might end with her you dropping

447
00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:25,680
Speaker 1: her as a friend anyway, but just just to confret,

448
00:20:25,920 --> 00:20:28,240
Speaker 1: just give a shot at least give her a chance.

449
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 4: That's crazy though, that's so annoying, so petty, so petty

450
00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 4: for why.

451
00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:38,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, But that's the end of that story. So we'll

452
00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,360
Speaker 2: see you next time. Next time.

453
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:45,280
Speaker 1: My boyfriend lost his best friend over a misunderstanding.

454
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 2: And I feel responsible. How dare you?

455
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: What did you mean to my boyfriend? Brad twenty nine

456
00:20:50,880 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 1: mail and his best friend, thirty male have been friends

457
00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:56,560
Speaker 1: for years prior to us meeting. We have been together

458
00:20:56,640 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: three and a half years now, and the best friend,

459
00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:00,560
Speaker 1: let's call him Adam and I I have built a

460
00:21:00,600 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 1: decent friendship as well because he was always around. Even

461
00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 1: Adam's family was close with us, as Brad's family was

462
00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:09,159
Speaker 1: family friends with them. By the way, this comes from

463
00:21:09,359 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: HGB sixty eight eighty on the Okay storytime separate it,

464
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: So now time for some context. Adam and his family

465
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 1: helped us move in together, which was conveniently less than

466
00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,400
Speaker 1: two miles down the street from our new place. They

467
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,440
Speaker 1: invited us over for dinners. Adam would come over once

468
00:21:25,480 --> 00:21:27,680
Speaker 1: a week at a minimum, we would watch their family's

469
00:21:27,720 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: pets and house while they were out of town. Adam

470
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: and his dad hired my boyfriend Brad to work construction

471
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: with them as Brad's side gig, and we would even

472
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:38,520
Speaker 1: invite Adam and his sister to our siblings Christmas event

473
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,960
Speaker 1: every holiday season. Adam's mom, Terry, is a lot. She's

474
00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:44,920
Speaker 1: the type of person to give you the shirt off

475
00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,479
Speaker 1: her back, but is still very blunt, overbearing, and doesn't

476
00:21:48,520 --> 00:21:51,560
Speaker 1: think before she speaks. A great example of that is

477
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 1: when she told me in front of Brad and her

478
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: entire family that if she could clone me exactly to

479
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,160
Speaker 1: date Adam, she would which.

480
00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 2: What's going on.

481
00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,760
Speaker 1: It's always her way or the highway, which is why

482
00:22:05,840 --> 00:22:08,560
Speaker 1: I think both of her adult children twenty five female

483
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:12,159
Speaker 1: thirty male, have never even dreamed about moving out of

484
00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:14,920
Speaker 1: their parents' basement. She is a helicopter mom to them,

485
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:17,960
Speaker 1: which would also explain why Adam is thirty years old

486
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:22,040
Speaker 1: in his mother's basement working an aggressively part time construction

487
00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:24,960
Speaker 1: gig at his dad's side company that he barely shows

488
00:22:25,040 --> 00:22:27,480
Speaker 1: up to and only leaves the basement if he isn't

489
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: playing video games once Brad and I moved closer to them.

490
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: Anytime we were out of town, they would watch our

491
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,120
Speaker 1: dog and in return, they would ask us to watch

492
00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 1: their zoo when they were out of town. Four cats,

493
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:41,840
Speaker 1: two additional feral cats, two dogs, ten plus fish, and

494
00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:45,000
Speaker 1: two axe Lotelso we were happy to do it because

495
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,320
Speaker 1: our dog loved it there so much. But this last

496
00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,840
Speaker 1: vacation was very different. Every summer we go on vacation

497
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:52,920
Speaker 1: with my side of the family to Florida for a week.

498
00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,280
Speaker 1: Every year they have brought our dog to their house

499
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 1: to watch her, but now couldn't because their dog was

500
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 1: having seizures and would get aggressive with other animals when

501
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,679
Speaker 1: she did so, they said they'd rather come watch her

502
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 1: at our place. To cut them some slack, Brad's brother

503
00:23:06,359 --> 00:23:08,400
Speaker 1: and his sister also helped check in on her dog

504
00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 1: two throughout this week. With two days left in our vacation.

505
00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 1: In a group chat regarding who was watching our dog when,

506
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 1: which was previously sent out as schedule to everyone in

507
00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,960
Speaker 1: a shared document two weeks before the vacation, Terry and

508
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: Brad's brother miscommunicated Our dog was fine and the miscommunication

509
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: was solved.

510
00:23:25,359 --> 00:23:27,720
Speaker 2: Quickly, but Terry went berserk.

511
00:23:27,880 --> 00:23:30,119
Speaker 1: She texted me saying that her family is our dog's

512
00:23:30,160 --> 00:23:33,520
Speaker 1: second family, meaning my family first, her second, and Brad's third,

513
00:23:33,560 --> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: and told me her family's last name would have a

514
00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,680
Speaker 1: better ring to it with my name than Brad's family's

515
00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:41,879
Speaker 1: last name. She also proceeded to call Brad's brother names

516
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,959
Speaker 1: in the group chat and basically insulting his competence. Brad's

517
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: mother was in the group chat, defending Brad's brother by saying,

518
00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 1: slow year old Terry, the dog is fine. It was

519
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 1: a misunderstanding and we thought it all would be good. Nope,

520
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,160
Speaker 1: it was not good. No, so Terry the Adam's sister

521
00:23:57,280 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: was just freaking out for no reason.

522
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 2: It sounds like Terry then texted.

523
00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,000
Speaker 1: Brad and I in a group chat vulgar insults about

524
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 1: his mom and his family, but proceeded to text me

525
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:09,480
Speaker 1: separately being a fake sweetheart. After we both set some

526
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 1: hard boundaries about how she was speaking about his mother

527
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,639
Speaker 1: and family, she then said she will no longer be

528
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:17,040
Speaker 1: watching our dog for the last two days of her vacation,

529
00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:20,359
Speaker 1: leaving our dogs stranded because all of their friends and

530
00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: family were out of town already at a funeral or festival.

531
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:26,880
Speaker 1: Which she knew. Adam then proceeded to call Brad, screaming

532
00:24:26,920 --> 00:24:29,320
Speaker 1: at him, telling Brad to grow up, telling Brad that

533
00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,280
Speaker 1: Brad's mom should leave her vacation to take over watching

534
00:24:32,280 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 1: the dog, that vacation was a funeral, telling Brad then

535
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:38,280
Speaker 1: that people die, so he doesn't care if she's at

536
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:40,440
Speaker 1: a funeral because we weren't nice enough to him when

537
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,960
Speaker 1: his seventeen year old cat died, telling Brad he needs

538
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,120
Speaker 1: to get his life together and get more of an education.

539
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,480
Speaker 1: Brad's job doesn't require any more college schooling and he

540
00:24:48,520 --> 00:24:51,560
Speaker 1: has a degree, and asking Brad if this is about money.

541
00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 1: We still don't even know what he meant by this,

542
00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:56,359
Speaker 1: and finally topping this off by asking Brad if he

543
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: wants to take this outside but they're not even home,

544
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:01,640
Speaker 1: how would they take it outside?

545
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:04,800
Speaker 2: They're not even there. Think they I cannot have an

546
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 2: outside to go to. Now.

547
00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:09,119
Speaker 1: If you're thinking what I'm thinking, how could this be

548
00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:10,320
Speaker 1: brought outside.

549
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:11,760
Speaker 2: When we're on vacation in a different state.

550
00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,080
Speaker 1: We were thinking that, I don't know, the guys are idiots,

551
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 1: but Brad has a very distinct past with violence, so

552
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,159
Speaker 1: that comment did not fly with me. We scrambled to

553
00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: find someone to watch the dog those last two days.

554
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 1: Finally made it home, where we were greeted almost once

555
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 1: an hour to Terry, almost sixty female.

556
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:27,800
Speaker 5: Oh.

557
00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:31,040
Speaker 1: I think Terry might be Adam's mom, posting passive aggressive

558
00:25:31,080 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 1: Instagram and Facebook stories about us and our families.

559
00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 2: Adam, after a.

560
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: Few days of calming down, asked if he could come

561
00:25:37,040 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 1: over to talk things out with Brad. I said no

562
00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,000
Speaker 1: because he threatened him and has a history with violence,

563
00:25:42,119 --> 00:25:44,760
Speaker 1: so he's not allowed in our home. Brad totally agreed,

564
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,400
Speaker 1: so they went to get beers instead. They talked it out.

565
00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,879
Speaker 1: Things were fine, but Brad said he still needs to

566
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,640
Speaker 1: have a conversation with me to be allowed back over.

567
00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,840
Speaker 1: It was going to be a simple combo, at least

568
00:25:55,880 --> 00:25:58,359
Speaker 1: I thought it would be. I would say, hey, would

569
00:25:58,400 --> 00:26:00,919
Speaker 1: you ever actually hurt your best friend you physical violence?

570
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:03,520
Speaker 1: And he would say no, I love Brad, I would

571
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:04,880
Speaker 1: never I was just being dramatic.

572
00:26:04,920 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 2: I can done. It did not go that way.

573
00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,080
Speaker 1: Hey. The thing is that I think it's not really

574
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: a simple misunderstanding. I think it was like a simple

575
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:16,000
Speaker 1: i'm a misunderstanding that revealed an actual problem in their front. Yeah.

576
00:26:16,080 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, like there was some underlying issues and grudges that

577
00:26:19,480 --> 00:26:21,720
Speaker 4: they were holding on to, and then now it's all

578
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:23,800
Speaker 4: coming up and possibly in the form of violence.

579
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,120
Speaker 1: Possibly in the form of violence's signed out. He asked

580
00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,120
Speaker 1: me out to dinner to talk, but ask Brad first

581
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,399
Speaker 1: if he could if he could by saying, don't worry,

582
00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:32,280
Speaker 1: I'm not trying to steal your girl, to which I

583
00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: said no because it was just uncomfy. After that comment

584
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:38,359
Speaker 1: and his mom's comment about me and Adam, I told

585
00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:40,960
Speaker 1: Adam to give me a call instead. Days go by

586
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:44,119
Speaker 1: and the phone doesn't ring. Weeks go by and still nothing.

587
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,640
Speaker 1: So I text him and say, hey, man, you're free

588
00:26:46,680 --> 00:26:49,399
Speaker 1: to talk tomorrow. I swear it'll be quick. He says,

589
00:26:49,760 --> 00:26:52,280
Speaker 1: I'll pass. But you know what, you should never pass

590
00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:55,080
Speaker 1: on joining us live every weekday at three PMPST. Just

591
00:26:55,119 --> 00:26:57,880
Speaker 1: tap her prophone, tap it and there is a little

592
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 1: bit more. But yeah, same deal. I think that you're

593
00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: just revealed who this guy actually is and who his

594
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 1: mom is.

595
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,719
Speaker 4: Yeah, such, yeah, it's just yeah, all those things are

596
00:27:08,760 --> 00:27:09,160
Speaker 4: coming up.

597
00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:09,399
Speaker 5: You know.

598
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,719
Speaker 4: They can say, oh, no, I'm being dramatic, but especially

599
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:16,159
Speaker 4: if they've had a history of a history of like

600
00:27:16,240 --> 00:27:17,080
Speaker 4: violence and stuff, and.

601
00:27:17,560 --> 00:27:19,840
Speaker 2: In the past. No, no, no, no, no, you can't trust that.

602
00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 2: You can't trust him.

603
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,919
Speaker 4: It's such a silly little thing for them to be

604
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:23,480
Speaker 4: mad over.

605
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:26,920
Speaker 2: So it's like, maybe they just are the best people

606
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:27,520
Speaker 2: to be around.

607
00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, I also think that, like, oh, I mean, based

608
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 1: off the title, you thought it was your fault. You

609
00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:35,399
Speaker 1: literally were just your dog was supposed to be watched.

610
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 1: And then they blew open, They blew up over that, right, Like,

611
00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:40,200
Speaker 1: just try.

612
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 2: To take care of you, little puppy. Yeah.

613
00:27:42,400 --> 00:27:44,679
Speaker 1: Adam then texts Brad saying that I have driven a

614
00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 1: wedge through their friendship by being Brad's girlfriend, and that

615
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:50,000
Speaker 1: Adam only cares about making amends with Brad and not

616
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 1: me because he doesn't care about my feelings. Brad did

617
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 1: not like this and stuck up for me so well

618
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:57,520
Speaker 1: that I made him his faved dinner the next night

619
00:27:57,640 --> 00:28:00,879
Speaker 1: and basically said, Okay, then you're not allowed over. Adam

620
00:28:00,960 --> 00:28:04,160
Speaker 1: argued against him not being allowed over, Brad stuck his ground.

621
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:07,120
Speaker 1: Adam responded saying I'm a fat idiot and Brad's mom

622
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,600
Speaker 1: is a terrible human, and then Adam and his entire

623
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,760
Speaker 1: family in Unison blocked me. My entire family who they

624
00:28:12,800 --> 00:28:16,520
Speaker 1: don't know Brad, Brad's family, and even Brad's brother's girlfriend

625
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:19,200
Speaker 1: on all social media. They did a whole cleanse there.

626
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,200
Speaker 1: Brad is still very clearly upset about this, keeps saying

627
00:28:22,240 --> 00:28:25,159
Speaker 1: he's lost his best man, although he stands by not

628
00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,720
Speaker 1: wanting to be his friend because he was so bonkers

629
00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,280
Speaker 1: at the end there. I can't help though, feeling partially responsible.

630
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 1: If I just let bygones be bygones when they made

631
00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:36,640
Speaker 1: amends over beers, would any of this had happened at

632
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:38,840
Speaker 1: the end? Am I the a hole for saying Adam

633
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: and I had to have our own convo or better

634
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: now than ever? Better now than ever? Definitely better? Yeah,

635
00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: for sure, good to find out that this is Adam,

636
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 1: this is who Adam really is now then later it's true.

637
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:55,200
Speaker 1: Colors are huge. Yeah, he sucks and you're better off

638
00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,560
Speaker 1: without him. And now you can find people who actually

639
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:58,520
Speaker 1: want to take care of your dog.

640
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, But that is the end of that story.

641
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 2: We love you and sit it on.

642
00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,360
Speaker 5: My sister in law's prank on my husband went wrong.

643
00:29:09,080 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 5: Now he's the bad guy. He's Billie Eilish God uh ah.

644
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 5: Thinking about not attending my brother's wedding because of his

645
00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 5: fiance's prank on my husband. I am twenty five female,

646
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,120
Speaker 5: My husband is thirty male. My brother thirty two male,

647
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 5: and his fiance thirty one female, recently came to visit

648
00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,120
Speaker 5: us in our city. My partner and I are now

649
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 5: new homeowners, and they were staying with us for the

650
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,000
Speaker 5: first time. By the way, this comes from user natural

651
00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,520
Speaker 5: Grocery thirty one to fifty nine on the r slash

652
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,320
Speaker 5: Okay story time subreddit. My brother's fiance loves Halloween. She's

653
00:29:42,360 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 5: also a Disney adult and has a childlike side to

654
00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:49,640
Speaker 5: her which comes out sometimes. She's just super absorbed when

655
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,360
Speaker 5: it comes to her interests. Anyway, I'm just sharing this

656
00:29:52,440 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 5: for context because my perspective is that she often gets

657
00:29:55,160 --> 00:29:57,720
Speaker 5: carried away, and I genuinely feel what I'm going to

658
00:29:57,760 --> 00:30:00,320
Speaker 5: describe was the result of one of those moments where

659
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:03,800
Speaker 5: she just took it too far and suffered some negative consequences.

660
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,400
Speaker 5: She is, however, taking it as a very personal attack,

661
00:30:07,560 --> 00:30:11,040
Speaker 5: so we disagree, and the disagreement resulted in my husband

662
00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 5: cutting their visit short aka they were asked to leave.

663
00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:18,160
Speaker 5: Thirty one female has made comments more than a few

664
00:30:18,200 --> 00:30:21,760
Speaker 5: times now since meeting him, that my husband gives off

665
00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 5: a dark vibe. She's always comparing him to characters from

666
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 5: various books she reads. It's not necessarily criticism. She always

667
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:32,760
Speaker 5: explains that they are compliments. But I'm not so sure anymore.

668
00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,800
Speaker 5: Her reasons for these comparisons are based on his looks,

669
00:30:35,840 --> 00:30:39,880
Speaker 5: the general vibe gives off, and his tattoo. He only

670
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:43,640
Speaker 5: has one, but it's on his hand. Okay. During this

671
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:46,720
Speaker 5: recent visit, she mentioned she would love to see someone

672
00:30:46,800 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 5: like him get scared because she can't imagine him getting

673
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:53,320
Speaker 5: startled or letting out a scream. Scaring him became her

674
00:30:53,440 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 5: goal during her stay with us. None of us knew

675
00:30:56,080 --> 00:31:00,280
Speaker 5: about it, not even my brother. Oh no, okay, oh no.

676
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,680
Speaker 5: The incident causing all the trouble is that she tried

677
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:06,400
Speaker 5: to jump scare my husband in the garage. It was

678
00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 5: dark and she ambushed him in the garage while wearing

679
00:31:10,080 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 5: a full outfit and mask while he was returning from

680
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,120
Speaker 5: a run. Well, he didn't let out the scream that

681
00:31:16,160 --> 00:31:20,880
Speaker 5: she wanted. He instinctively reacted by shoving her against the wall.

682
00:31:21,360 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 5: She hit her head and was quite shaken up. Luckily,

683
00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 5: he realized very quickly by the sound that she made

684
00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:29,440
Speaker 5: that it likely wasn't an intruder. He switched the lights

685
00:31:29,480 --> 00:31:31,880
Speaker 5: on and pulled her mask off. He told me he

686
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,640
Speaker 5: was very confused in the moment because why would she

687
00:31:34,680 --> 00:31:39,080
Speaker 5: attack him? Yeah, facts, facts. My husband helped her inside, apologized,

688
00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,400
Speaker 5: made her tea, and then called me. I was out

689
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 5: with my brother. When we got home. I asked thirty

690
00:31:44,400 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 5: one female if she was okay, and said her prank

691
00:31:47,200 --> 00:31:50,480
Speaker 5: was stupid to do because she could have gotten seriously hurt.

692
00:31:51,040 --> 00:31:52,640
Speaker 5: I don't know if it was what I said that

693
00:31:52,720 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 5: bothered her or if she was just waiting for her

694
00:31:54,800 --> 00:31:57,960
Speaker 5: partner to come home. But she launched into crying about

695
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:01,360
Speaker 5: how my husband used an excessive amount of knowing it

696
00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 5: was most likely just her doing a harmless prank. No,

697
00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:07,920
Speaker 5: come on, that's all I have to say about that. Honestly,

698
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 5: maybe he didn't use enough. No in a nutshell, my

699
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:16,680
Speaker 5: husband asked her straightforwardly, are you implying that I intentionally

700
00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,720
Speaker 5: assaulted you? She hesitated but chose to say yes, and

701
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:23,880
Speaker 5: my husband responded to that with get out of my house.

702
00:32:24,520 --> 00:32:27,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, that made you. He apologize and made you tea,

703
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:29,680
Speaker 3: And that's what you're gonna say. He didn't mean to.

704
00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 5: Yeah, heck, come on, come on, that's honestly so out

705
00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,760
Speaker 5: of pocket. I tried to smooth it, but my husband

706
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:38,760
Speaker 5: was adamant. If that's what she genuinely believes, she's not

707
00:32:38,880 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 5: welcome to stay. Thirty one female chose to stick to

708
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:45,120
Speaker 5: her accusation. I decided to stick with my husband. My

709
00:32:45,200 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 5: brother is angry with me, and he thinks I should

710
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:49,360
Speaker 5: have tried to do damage control and let them stay

711
00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 5: by convincing my husband to lean more into apologizing and

712
00:32:52,680 --> 00:32:56,160
Speaker 5: placating his fiance, who was just recovering from the situation.

713
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,080
Speaker 5: He thinks this whole thing would have been blown over

714
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,240
Speaker 5: if I'd help my husband fold. I find this unfair,

715
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:04,320
Speaker 5: as do I personally. My brother was counting on me

716
00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,440
Speaker 5: to handle all of this, yet he didn't speak up

717
00:33:06,520 --> 00:33:09,320
Speaker 5: during the conversation or try to talk sense into his fiance.

718
00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:12,480
Speaker 5: My husband remained calm the entire time, but he obviously

719
00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:15,360
Speaker 5: felt insulted by her remarks, and I think that that's valid.

720
00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:18,160
Speaker 5: Why should I have taken my brother's fiance side over

721
00:33:18,160 --> 00:33:20,320
Speaker 5: my own husband, especially when I feel like she was

722
00:33:20,360 --> 00:33:23,480
Speaker 5: wrong for doing all that then turning around and accusing

723
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:28,000
Speaker 5: my husband of wanting to hurt her on purpose. That's

724
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:31,680
Speaker 5: the most crazy. That's the important part. It's like, why

725
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:35,240
Speaker 5: would I why would you even want to stay here? Then? Yeah,

726
00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:36,920
Speaker 5: if you truly think that he did that on purpose,

727
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:37,960
Speaker 5: wouldn't you want to leave?

728
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 3: So yeah, people aren't. People aren't. No, there are no

729
00:33:41,680 --> 00:33:44,040
Speaker 3: sense here, No sense happened. Nonsense.

730
00:33:44,320 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 5: My brother says that I was short sighted and I

731
00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,400
Speaker 5: should think of their upcoming wedding. But I think he's

732
00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,720
Speaker 5: the one who needs to get his fiancee to apologize

733
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 5: to my husband.

734
00:33:52,640 --> 00:33:52,840
Speaker 1: Edit.

735
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:54,880
Speaker 5: In an attempt to answer some things that are getting

736
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,280
Speaker 5: lost in the comments, I would like to clarify when

737
00:33:57,280 --> 00:33:59,560
Speaker 5: I meant I tried to smooth the situation. I was

738
00:33:59,640 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 5: not taking thirty one female's side. I hate that that's

739
00:34:02,760 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 5: what her name is. By the way, I'm sorry we

740
00:34:04,400 --> 00:34:06,280
Speaker 5: can give her a name. It's too late now we're

741
00:34:06,280 --> 00:34:07,320
Speaker 5: almost at the end of the story.

742
00:34:07,400 --> 00:34:10,520
Speaker 3: Yes, so E one F three for E one for

743
00:34:10,680 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 3: I F for female.

744
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 5: I I was not taking ewanaf's side or doubting my

745
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,040
Speaker 5: husband in any way. I simply tried to get everyone

746
00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,239
Speaker 5: to consider tabling this until emotions had cooled down, and

747
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:25,960
Speaker 5: by those emotions, I mean the hysterics of my brother's fiance.

748
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 5: My husband was calmed throughout, although there was an obvious

749
00:34:29,560 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 5: finality about his decision. He made his statement and disengaged.

750
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 5: As mentioned, my brother looked to me, hoping I'd persuade

751
00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:39,960
Speaker 5: my husband, but I didn't, so they had to leave.

752
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,080
Speaker 5: I mentioned in a comment that I didn't get an

753
00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,120
Speaker 5: opportunity to ask that night if she bought an outfit

754
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:47,840
Speaker 5: specifically for this prank, or if it was my brother's

755
00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:50,960
Speaker 5: Halloween costume. They go to adult Halloween parties, and we

756
00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:54,120
Speaker 5: are attending one this weekend, two hours from where we live.

757
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,960
Speaker 5: It's part of my brother's costume. A mask, a golden

758
00:34:56,960 --> 00:34:59,520
Speaker 5: mascarade one, but more coverage reminded me of the gold

759
00:34:59,600 --> 00:35:02,879
Speaker 5: jeweled a masks from Squid Game or something you'd wear

760
00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:05,960
Speaker 5: to a roth Child party in the seventies. And she

761
00:35:06,080 --> 00:35:08,520
Speaker 5: had on a long robe slash cloak with a hood.

762
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,760
Speaker 5: People asked me to update, and I'll do that. Please

763
00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,000
Speaker 5: look at my comments too, in case I already answered

764
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:15,080
Speaker 5: a question that you might have. But I think those

765
00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:16,840
Speaker 5: two were the ones I saw pop up the most.

766
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:18,800
Speaker 5: I'm sorry I can't keep up with all the comments.

767
00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,319
Speaker 5: I really tried. I'll be showing this thread to my

768
00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,960
Speaker 5: brother and we have an update. I don't think she's

769
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,719
Speaker 5: gonna apologize. I don't think she's got the.

770
00:35:25,640 --> 00:35:28,200
Speaker 3: Maturity for it or the brain cells. Dude, Clearly, this

771
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:29,840
Speaker 3: was a complete accident.

772
00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:30,920
Speaker 5: It was, and she's not.

773
00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:33,600
Speaker 3: She's like, Oh, it's actually your fault that I dressed

774
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:36,400
Speaker 3: up and scared you and you decided to defend yourself.

775
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,360
Speaker 5: Right, That's why I think. That's why it's absurd. Anyway,

776
00:35:38,719 --> 00:35:41,319
Speaker 5: So here's an update, which is a little bit of

777
00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:44,560
Speaker 5: context on top. My husband told me that he was

778
00:35:44,680 --> 00:35:48,680
Speaker 5: gentle and understanding, but once she was seated and started

779
00:35:48,680 --> 00:35:51,080
Speaker 5: to calm down, he made it very clear to her

780
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:53,960
Speaker 5: that her actions were reckless and could have led to

781
00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 5: serious harm. It's my personal opinion that she didn't like

782
00:35:57,560 --> 00:36:01,200
Speaker 5: the change in his demeanor and being told off because

783
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:04,560
Speaker 5: it meant she was no longer the victim but the transgressor.

784
00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:07,280
Speaker 5: She didn't like taking the blame. In a crappy attempt

785
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:09,640
Speaker 5: to get herself out of the hot seat, she decided

786
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:13,960
Speaker 5: to accuse my husband of using excessive force, implying that

787
00:36:14,040 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 5: he intentionally assaulted her, even though she was the one

788
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:21,800
Speaker 5: who initiated the whole situation. This led to an emotional

789
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,440
Speaker 5: reaction from my brother and heightened the tension between him

790
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 5: and my husband. My husband was Joe tolerance about the theatrics,

791
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,359
Speaker 5: the future sister in law in hysterics and my brother

792
00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 5: getting riled up about it, and he kicked both of

793
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,879
Speaker 5: them out. You can read the details of the first

794
00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:38,480
Speaker 5: post here. Okay, then here's the update. The first update

795
00:36:38,560 --> 00:36:42,440
Speaker 5: was literally all contexts in the update two, which is

796
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,719
Speaker 5: really update one. Okay. I tried to talk to my

797
00:36:44,760 --> 00:36:47,959
Speaker 5: brother multiple times after the incident, but each attempt ended

798
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,919
Speaker 5: in silence because I refused to give in to his demands.

799
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,920
Speaker 5: He wanted my husband and me to apologize to his fiance,

800
00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,160
Speaker 5: starting with me downplaying the whole situation so that she

801
00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:01,040
Speaker 5: wouldn't feel bad about her braining. He hesitated to send

802
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 5: him the Reddit post I made. Initially, I thought it

803
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:06,440
Speaker 5: might work against us to make things worse, but his

804
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,360
Speaker 5: total inability to reason with me or see the situation

805
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:13,240
Speaker 5: for what it was became beyond frustrating. Since I couldn't

806
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,120
Speaker 5: physically deliver a cold, hard slap to his face for

807
00:37:16,239 --> 00:37:18,480
Speaker 5: asking me to be complacent in allowing my husband to

808
00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:21,359
Speaker 5: be falsely accused of assault. I figured the next best

809
00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,440
Speaker 5: thing would be for him to read all your comments.

810
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:26,560
Speaker 5: Oh boy. Following the advice I got here, I tried

811
00:37:26,600 --> 00:37:29,280
Speaker 5: to get ahead of the situation by informing my parents.

812
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,680
Speaker 5: My dad, a reasonable and practical man, immediately sided with

813
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:34,280
Speaker 5: my husband.

814
00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,239
Speaker 3: Good goodyearar You got to inform the parents' asap when

815
00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:38,680
Speaker 3: stuff like this happens practical.

816
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,880
Speaker 5: His comments were similar to what a lot of people

817
00:37:42,120 --> 00:37:44,840
Speaker 5: here had said, focusing on how dangerous and reckless the

818
00:37:44,880 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 5: prank was and the ramifications of being falsely accused of assault.

819
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,520
Speaker 5: My mom, who unfortunately has always favored my brother, suggested

820
00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 5: we at least hear out, referring to my brother's fiance

821
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,560
Speaker 5: he wanted. As livid as I was about her reaction,

822
00:37:59,680 --> 00:38:02,279
Speaker 5: I wasn't surprised by it. My dad did try to

823
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 5: shut down her skepticism, but she remained on my brother's

824
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,880
Speaker 5: side for a few days until I showed them footage

825
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:11,360
Speaker 5: from my brother's tesla which she had tried to delete.

826
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:16,040
Speaker 3: Let's freaking go, let's freaking go.

827
00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:21,080
Speaker 5: Thank you, elon, thank you, this is perfect the century thing.

828
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:24,279
Speaker 5: Sorry if I'm using the terminology incorrectly, I'm not a

829
00:38:24,280 --> 00:38:27,840
Speaker 5: Tesla owner recorded part of the interaction in the garage,

830
00:38:27,880 --> 00:38:31,239
Speaker 5: not the jump scare itself, but the aftermath, which, in

831
00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,920
Speaker 5: my opinion, was more crucial. My husband's account was confirmed.

832
00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 5: He used a measured amount of force to immobilize her

833
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 5: and was prepared to escalate if necessary, which is beyond

834
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,000
Speaker 5: generous for someone to do in a situation like that

835
00:38:44,400 --> 00:38:48,360
Speaker 5: and definitely not owed. Many of you speculated that she

836
00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,520
Speaker 5: might have a fixation or even a crush on my husband,

837
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,759
Speaker 5: and I'm starting to reconsider some past interactions with that

838
00:38:54,840 --> 00:38:57,120
Speaker 5: in mind. Wow, I didn't think about that at all.

839
00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 5: That's ye, that's an interesting take. Might be true. I

840
00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:04,279
Speaker 5: also misunderstood what dark books she expressed she enjoyed and

841
00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:06,759
Speaker 5: compared my fiance too. Oh yeah, because she has a

842
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 5: dark Oh is it gonna be sometimes? Is it gonna

843
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:14,080
Speaker 5: be like a just a such mutt, just a book

844
00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:18,320
Speaker 5: full of smut, just a dark fairy. He's a dark fairy.

845
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:22,320
Speaker 5: Uh oh, he's a dark, hot, sexy fairy. I learned

846
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,040
Speaker 5: from comments here that they are actually a sub type

847
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 5: of romance genre. Yeah, there you go. I didn't know

848
00:39:28,719 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 5: she was comparing him to characters in romance novels because

849
00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,120
Speaker 5: One of the characters I recall her comparing my husband

850
00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 5: to was from a book about dragons. I genuinely wish

851
00:39:37,480 --> 00:39:40,120
Speaker 5: I could still remember the names of various characters she'd

852
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 5: mentioned over the months, so I could satisfy my own curiosity,

853
00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:46,279
Speaker 5: but my brain gloss over the names during conversations. We

854
00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:48,520
Speaker 5: have a group chat for the wedding, which includes my brother,

855
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 5: my parents, my brother's fiance, and her parents. In that chat,

856
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 5: I addressed the incident, but didn't share the Tesla footage,

857
00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 5: only mentioned that it exists. Her parents didn't respond in

858
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:01,560
Speaker 5: the chat, though I know oh they saw the message. Later,

859
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 5: her mom called mine. Apparently they had no idea about

860
00:40:04,880 --> 00:40:07,360
Speaker 5: the prank. It's hard to say whether they believe me

861
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:10,520
Speaker 5: or if they've taken their daughter's side After speaking with her.

862
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,360
Speaker 5: My brother's fiance and my brother have both extended apologies

863
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,399
Speaker 5: to my husband and have requested our presence at their

864
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:21,759
Speaker 5: upcoming wedding. My parents, trying to keep the peace, have

865
00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:24,640
Speaker 5: encouraged us to go, saying it's the honorable thing to

866
00:40:24,680 --> 00:40:29,000
Speaker 5: do so for the sake of family formality. We've decided

867
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,880
Speaker 5: to attend. However, my husband has made it clear that

868
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 5: we'll be there out of obligation. We will be keeping

869
00:40:34,880 --> 00:40:38,560
Speaker 5: a distance from them going forward. We haven't explicitly stated it,

870
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:41,239
Speaker 5: but there will be no future invitations to our home,

871
00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:44,040
Speaker 5: not even for the holiday dinner we had planned before

872
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,640
Speaker 5: all this happened. My husband is going to minimize all

873
00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:49,520
Speaker 5: future interaction with my brother's fiance, and I don't think

874
00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 5: we'll ever trust her again. True. I'll try to spend

875
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,319
Speaker 5: someone on one time with my brother to gauge where

876
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,200
Speaker 5: we stand. Our relationship feels strained, and this incident has

877
00:40:57,200 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 5: made me realize that I lost him to her a

878
00:40:59,560 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 5: long time before this happened, something that I hadn't fully

879
00:41:03,960 --> 00:41:07,560
Speaker 5: recognized until now. Thanks for everyone for sharing your opinions.

880
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:09,799
Speaker 5: A reporter from a news outlet reached out to me,

881
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 5: and I remembered requesting that if anyone uses my story,

882
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:15,280
Speaker 5: I would like them to pass on the following sentiment.

883
00:41:15,360 --> 00:41:17,759
Speaker 5: I hope that if you share my story, you can

884
00:41:17,800 --> 00:41:21,400
Speaker 5: help highlight the dangers of ambush style pranks. These types

885
00:41:21,440 --> 00:41:24,280
Speaker 5: of pranks create a threatening environment and put everyone involved

886
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,440
Speaker 5: at risk of serious harm or injury. They're stupid and dangerous.

887
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:29,319
Speaker 5: No one should have to feel threatened or be put

888
00:41:29,360 --> 00:41:31,480
Speaker 5: in a position where their safety is compromised for the

889
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,560
Speaker 5: sake of a prank. If that's the setup, then it's

890
00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:36,480
Speaker 5: not a prank. Actions like these will always have consequences,

891
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:39,360
Speaker 5: some of which may be irreparable, and no prank is

892
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 5: worth the risk of someone getting hurt. And by the way,

902
00:42:08,120 --> 00:42:10,640
Speaker 5: Yeah. Sure, that's what I had. That's exactly what I meant.

903
00:42:11,280 --> 00:42:16,080
Speaker 5: The prank was innocent. The woman is dumb. My stepsister

904
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:20,120
Speaker 5: hates me. She says I stole her true love. You'd

905
00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:21,120
Speaker 5: a stolen man.

906
00:42:21,719 --> 00:42:24,799
Speaker 3: I twenty nine female wasn't a fair baby between my

907
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:27,840
Speaker 3: mom and dad. My mom was already married to my

908
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 3: stepdad and had my half sister. Thirty two female whose name.

909
00:42:31,960 --> 00:42:36,200
Speaker 5: Will be r No. Well, what will it be Rebecca.

910
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,839
Speaker 3: Rebecca, We'll do Rebecca. Rebecca has always headed me for

911
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:41,640
Speaker 3: some unknown reasons. By the way, this comes from bob

912
00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 3: haircut a lies on the rss okay story tom subreddit.

913
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:47,360
Speaker 3: So I never gave her any reasons to hate me

914
00:42:47,560 --> 00:42:50,359
Speaker 3: as we grew up together, she just did. Growing up,

915
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:52,560
Speaker 3: I spent a lot more time with my mom than

916
00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,000
Speaker 3: my dad, who traveled a lot due to his work,

917
00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,120
Speaker 3: but when he was in town, I always took the opportunity.

918
00:42:58,200 --> 00:42:59,719
Speaker 3: It was the only time I could be away from

919
00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,640
Speaker 3: my stepdad and Rebecca. Rebecca would always do terrible things

920
00:43:03,640 --> 00:43:06,719
Speaker 3: to me. She would destroy my things, Gifts and souvenirs

921
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,520
Speaker 3: my dad would send by mail would go to the trash.

922
00:43:09,640 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 3: It was so bad that when I was about to

923
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 3: enter high school, she cut off my hair when I

924
00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,720
Speaker 3: was sleeping and I had to get a bob cut,

925
00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:19,600
Speaker 3: which reached my chin my nose if styled. My mom

926
00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:22,960
Speaker 3: scolded her and stepped out enabled her even more, patting

927
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:24,879
Speaker 3: her on the back for a good job when Mom

928
00:43:25,000 --> 00:43:25,640
Speaker 3: wasn't looking.

929
00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:27,520
Speaker 5: Oh you did not.

930
00:43:28,480 --> 00:43:30,920
Speaker 3: In high school, I was in a graphic design class,

931
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,520
Speaker 3: and that's how I met Rebecca's one true love. At

932
00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:35,280
Speaker 3: first greetings.

933
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:35,840
Speaker 5: I didn't know.

934
00:43:36,520 --> 00:43:39,480
Speaker 3: I would stay after school to finish in class assignments

935
00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,000
Speaker 3: for the class, and he would be there too to

936
00:43:42,120 --> 00:43:44,800
Speaker 3: use the computers to do some drawings he had saved

937
00:43:44,920 --> 00:43:47,879
Speaker 3: on the computer. The computer he used was right next

938
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:51,640
Speaker 3: to mine, so we sat together when we stay. The

939
00:43:51,640 --> 00:43:53,840
Speaker 3: computer he used was right next to mine, so we

940
00:43:53,960 --> 00:44:01,640
Speaker 3: sat together when I would stay. Once where he said

941
00:44:01,680 --> 00:44:04,440
Speaker 3: he liked my hairstyle. I was the only girl in

942
00:44:04,440 --> 00:44:06,960
Speaker 3: school with really short hair, so I did stand out

943
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:09,439
Speaker 3: a bit. One day, my sister came to spy on him,

944
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:12,520
Speaker 3: and she was furious seeing me sit next to him.

945
00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,200
Speaker 3: She was so mad that when we got home, she

946
00:44:15,280 --> 00:44:17,680
Speaker 3: sat me on the face, accusing me of wanting to

947
00:44:17,680 --> 00:44:20,520
Speaker 3: steal him. After that incident, I tried to stay away

948
00:44:20,560 --> 00:44:23,800
Speaker 3: from him, not wanting to deal with her craziness. Thankfully,

949
00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:27,000
Speaker 3: I only had to endure her for another year before

950
00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 3: she went off to college. My first year of college,

951
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:32,080
Speaker 3: my dad was diagnosed with terminal cancer and was told

952
00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,680
Speaker 3: he had that year twenty thirteen to live. Day my

953
00:44:35,920 --> 00:44:42,000
Speaker 3: mother got news and told Stepdad and Rebecca. Rebecca, in response,

954
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:44,400
Speaker 3: sent me a video she took from a TV show

955
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 3: I've been told was called Shameless, where there's a blonde

956
00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:50,839
Speaker 3: girl peeing on a man's tombstone, with the text saying,

957
00:44:50,920 --> 00:44:53,759
Speaker 3: can't wait for that MF to die. Be gone, have

958
00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,840
Speaker 3: fun cleaning the mess I'm going to make, where she

959
00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:01,719
Speaker 3: pent another pick, which was Peep, Wow, your sister's the.

960
00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,480
Speaker 5: Best two dude, Rebecca.

961
00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:07,759
Speaker 3: That was literally was the craziest thing I have ever

962
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:08,560
Speaker 3: read on this show.

963
00:45:08,680 --> 00:45:13,719
Speaker 5: Yeah, that that is one of the most godless, unholy

964
00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:15,600
Speaker 5: ways you could ever respond.

965
00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,880
Speaker 3: I was so furious and disgusted that someone like her existed,

966
00:45:20,239 --> 00:45:23,320
Speaker 3: someone who would be so happy to see someone's life.

967
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,879
Speaker 3: And my second year was rough, as my dad died

968
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,120
Speaker 3: a few days before school started. In the end, he

969
00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,359
Speaker 3: left me with money that would help for the years

970
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,600
Speaker 3: to come and a few properties I rented to make

971
00:45:33,680 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 3: extra cash. Wondering if she actually did it, Yep sent

972
00:45:38,120 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 3: another video.

973
00:45:39,040 --> 00:45:42,000
Speaker 5: For a proof. There's no freaking way that they're talking

974
00:45:42,000 --> 00:45:43,759
Speaker 5: about what I think they're talking about, right, Yeah, they're

975
00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:46,120
Speaker 5: talking about that. No, there's there's no way she did that.

976
00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:49,120
Speaker 5: She did not do that. You can that's also you

977
00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:52,000
Speaker 5: go to jail for that. Well, it's called like desecrating

978
00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:53,319
Speaker 5: a grave. You can't do that.

979
00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:55,640
Speaker 3: I would send it to the police somehow. I fol

980
00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,000
Speaker 3: karma was real at the time. A few weeks after that,

981
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:00,239
Speaker 3: ended up bumping into the guy she was upsets with

982
00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:02,560
Speaker 3: and still is, and went to hang out with my

983
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:04,680
Speaker 3: friend who went to the same college as him. We

984
00:46:04,719 --> 00:46:07,719
Speaker 3: spoke briefly until my friend came and we left. A

985
00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,040
Speaker 3: few days after that, my friend told me the guy

986
00:46:10,120 --> 00:46:12,600
Speaker 3: she saw asked for my info and she gave him

987
00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 3: my Snapchat, knowing if I wanted to talk to him,

988
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:17,600
Speaker 3: she would give him an app I don't use anymore.

989
00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:19,520
Speaker 3: I'm going to be honest. When she told me this,

990
00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,200
Speaker 3: I so wanted to use him and get back on

991
00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:24,480
Speaker 3: my sister for knowing how much she loved him. But

992
00:46:24,600 --> 00:46:26,680
Speaker 3: I know how it feels to be so hurt, and

993
00:46:26,719 --> 00:46:28,840
Speaker 3: so I added him on Snapchat and texted him to

994
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:30,719
Speaker 3: me at a coffee shop. When we met at our

995
00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,000
Speaker 3: local coffee shop, I was honest with him on why

996
00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:35,560
Speaker 3: I reached out and told him how crazy Rebecca is.

997
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,359
Speaker 3: He wasn't surprised. He went on telling me the things

998
00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,440
Speaker 3: she would pull on the girls he would talk to,

999
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:43,680
Speaker 3: and how she would try to sabotage his relationship when

1000
00:46:43,680 --> 00:46:47,680
Speaker 3: they were in high school. Wow to her telling them

1001
00:46:48,040 --> 00:46:51,239
Speaker 3: they slept together while speaking or in a relationship with

1002
00:46:51,320 --> 00:46:54,520
Speaker 3: those girls, she was having his kid and even saying

1003
00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,920
Speaker 3: he had an STD. Yeah, she's nuts.

1004
00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:02,560
Speaker 5: What that's the spectrum of your different like ridiculous lies?

1005
00:47:02,880 --> 00:47:04,080
Speaker 5: Is crazy?

1006
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:07,799
Speaker 3: I'm baffled at this woman. To keep this short, we

1007
00:47:07,840 --> 00:47:10,480
Speaker 3: stayed friends until a few months where we started dating

1008
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:13,120
Speaker 3: and we had a lot of similar hobbies, interests, and

1009
00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:13,800
Speaker 3: we think alike.

1010
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:14,800
Speaker 5: He says.

1011
00:47:14,880 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 3: It's the power of mind melt star trek, seeing how

1012
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,080
Speaker 3: we might as well be telepathic with one another. This

1013
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 3: year we decided to get married. Engaged for three our

1014
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,280
Speaker 3: jobs pay us really well in our respective fields.

1015
00:47:27,160 --> 00:47:30,760
Speaker 5: Where we can go big on our wedding. Here comes

1016
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:35,719
Speaker 5: in Rebecca. Oh boy, what's Rebecca gonna do? Man?

1017
00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:38,840
Speaker 3: Never have I ever just not wanted to know the

1018
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 3: ending of a story. I know, I'm actually terrified, dude.

1019
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:47,040
Speaker 3: Rebecca sadly still stalks my fiance. He isn't much of

1020
00:47:47,080 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 3: a social media person, so he doesn't post much, but

1021
00:47:50,120 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 3: where he does, it's on his Instagram story. He recently

1022
00:47:53,480 --> 00:47:55,799
Speaker 3: posts a picture of my hand with the engagement ring,

1023
00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:59,760
Speaker 3: capturing after three years. Next up the wedding ring and yes,

1024
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:03,200
Speaker 3: his Instagram is private and he has her blocked, but

1025
00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,360
Speaker 3: there are a few people who will tell her friends

1026
00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,640
Speaker 3: and they tell her it can't be helped. Some people

1027
00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,640
Speaker 3: live for the drama. I don't talk to my mom

1028
00:48:11,719 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 3: as much as seeing how she wasn't much help when

1029
00:48:14,600 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 3: my sister would bully me or when my stepdad belittled me,

1030
00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:20,160
Speaker 3: but I do once a month. For a few minutes,

1031
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,799
Speaker 3: she had called me complaining how Rebecca was throwing a

1032
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:26,799
Speaker 3: tantrum and how Jay, my fiance, was engaged, and she

1033
00:48:26,880 --> 00:48:27,600
Speaker 3: doesn't know.

1034
00:48:27,640 --> 00:48:28,799
Speaker 5: Who the bee is.

1035
00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 3: That's when I got the idea, I'm going to tell

1036
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:33,879
Speaker 3: her I know who the bee is. Don't worry. Jay

1037
00:48:34,040 --> 00:48:37,600
Speaker 3: is fine with this. I had Rebecca blocked on social media,

1038
00:48:37,640 --> 00:48:40,279
Speaker 3: and I unblocked her and made my Instagram public for

1039
00:48:40,360 --> 00:48:43,400
Speaker 3: this occasion. After unblocking her, I posted a picture of

1040
00:48:43,440 --> 00:48:46,200
Speaker 3: my nails without the ring and my nails that were

1041
00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:48,800
Speaker 3: exactly the same as the picture he put on his story.

1042
00:48:48,880 --> 00:48:52,040
Speaker 3: A few days later, I posted inspirational pictures of wedding

1043
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 3: invitation Guess who'd seen them?

1044
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 5: Oh my god, this is your playing a dangerous game here.

1045
00:48:57,960 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 5: I'm going to be doing this. I'd be getting restraining

1046
00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 5: or Yeah, first you gotta get the restraining order locked

1047
00:49:03,560 --> 00:49:07,120
Speaker 5: down before you start messing with this kind of behavior,

1048
00:49:07,239 --> 00:49:11,040
Speaker 5: because yeah, and then I was inciting the craziest person

1049
00:49:11,080 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 5: I've ever heard.

1050
00:49:11,920 --> 00:49:14,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I would go and holme alone proof

1051
00:49:14,480 --> 00:49:16,480
Speaker 3: my house, waiting for her.

1052
00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:19,400
Speaker 5: You gotta, like you gotta settle kinds of traps.

1053
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:22,560
Speaker 3: A few days after, I put that picture of myself

1054
00:49:22,640 --> 00:49:25,279
Speaker 3: with my friends dressed up with the caption my bridesmaids,

1055
00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:27,759
Speaker 3: and Jay a few hours later with his groom men

1056
00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:30,880
Speaker 3: with no caption, but he had the same background of

1057
00:49:30,880 --> 00:49:34,359
Speaker 3: the restaurant the picture was taken. And behold, I get

1058
00:49:34,360 --> 00:49:37,279
Speaker 3: the messages on Instagram where she demanded to know if

1059
00:49:37,320 --> 00:49:40,160
Speaker 3: I was the girl Jay was going to marry. She

1060
00:49:40,280 --> 00:49:43,200
Speaker 3: said things like, no, he can never like a girl

1061
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:45,920
Speaker 3: like you, and you know how much he means to me.

1062
00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:51,040
Speaker 5: I left her on red Shay. First of all, shut up, bitch,

Speaker 5: you know how much he means to be You're a monster.

00:49:56,120 --> 00:50:01,840
Speaker 5: You literally like defecated on her father's grat You absolute

1065
00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:03,680
Speaker 5: goblin of a person.

1066
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,359
Speaker 3: Yesterday I posted a picture of the two of us.

1067
00:50:06,480 --> 00:50:09,000
Speaker 3: The pictures were taken on Saturday, where we took his

1068
00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 3: family out to inform them of our wedding plans and

1069
00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,359
Speaker 3: how they are officially invited with invitations given to them.

1070
00:50:15,400 --> 00:50:18,080
Speaker 3: I posted three pictures, one normal one is when we

Speaker 3: as they surrounded us. Caption being proud to an announce

1074
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:27,640
Speaker 3: I'm getting married this year to.

1075
00:50:27,600 --> 00:50:28,399
Speaker 5: The love of my life.

1076
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 3: Can't wait for a lifetime of blessings alongside you. I

1077
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,800
Speaker 3: got messages an hour after I posted that from Rebecca

1078
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:39,040
Speaker 3: that I didn't read, and calls from which my mom

1079
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,560
Speaker 3: I declined and I hope you never decline us Every

1080
00:50:41,560 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 3: weekday at three PMPST when we go live just to

1081
00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:48,640
Speaker 3: apper our profile. Yeah, this girl is literally in trouble.

1082
00:50:48,680 --> 00:50:50,880
Speaker 3: I would not be inviting this kind of evilness to

1083
00:50:51,000 --> 00:50:51,480
Speaker 3: my home.

1084
00:50:52,160 --> 00:50:54,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, you're playing a dangerous game. But at

1085
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,399
Speaker 5: the same time, I think you're getting like just the sweetest,

1086
00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:01,239
Speaker 5: juiciest form of revenge that you possibly could against a

1087
00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,840
Speaker 5: person who's tormented you for a long time.

1088
00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:10,080
Speaker 3: But after she does something horrible, well maybe not though,

1089
00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:13,680
Speaker 3: Like if you're anticipating it, you can get in front

1090
00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:13,880
Speaker 3: of it.

1091
00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:15,360
Speaker 5: Okay, you could get in front of it, because this

1092
00:51:15,400 --> 00:51:17,520
Speaker 5: person's not like a genius or anything. That's not what

1093
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:18,279
Speaker 5: it sounds.

1094
00:51:18,000 --> 00:51:20,080
Speaker 3: Like, like defecated on your dad's great This.

1095
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,640
Speaker 5: Person sounds like one of the dumbest people I've yeah,

1096
00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:24,480
Speaker 5: because you know how stupid you have to be to

1097
00:51:24,520 --> 00:51:24,839
Speaker 5: do that.

1098
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:29,040
Speaker 3: Like Honestly, today I went on Instagram and saw over

1099
00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:32,320
Speaker 3: eighty messages of insults from her, one being how ugly

1100
00:51:32,360 --> 00:51:35,719
Speaker 3: I looked with my short bob cut hair. Which one

1101
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 3: being how ugly I looked with my short bob cut

1102
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:42,960
Speaker 3: hair which I cut for this occasion, which I replied, interesting,

1103
00:51:43,280 --> 00:51:46,400
Speaker 3: Jay doesn't think so funny. Actually, you know, Jay confessed

1104
00:51:46,440 --> 00:51:49,000
Speaker 3: to me after our second day and he thought my

1105
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:52,239
Speaker 3: hair in high school, my alice cool and haircut as

1106
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:55,120
Speaker 3: you described it before, was the reason that grabbed his attention.

1107
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:57,719
Speaker 3: Back then, he thought I looked very cute. Guess you

1108
00:51:57,840 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 3: had a reason to feel threatened at that time. He

1109
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:04,160
Speaker 3: also found me attractive even then. After she read it,

1110
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,640
Speaker 3: I made my account private and blocked her. Now I'm

1111
00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,040
Speaker 3: thinking about doing it again where we're getting married or

1112
00:52:11,120 --> 00:52:15,640
Speaker 3: changing my bio to his last name. Who knows, And

1113
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:19,200
Speaker 3: and there's a news report of her getting absolutely murdered

1114
00:52:19,239 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 3: by this woman.

1115
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:22,439
Speaker 5: No way, Oh dude, No did you look?

1116
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 4: No?

1117
00:52:22,719 --> 00:52:25,200
Speaker 5: I didn't look, but that's what I feel like. No,

1118
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,480
Speaker 5: we just haunted. We just haunted. We saw there was

1119
00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:31,600
Speaker 5: nothing else. My sister chose my rude ex friend over me,

1120
00:52:32,120 --> 00:52:36,400
Speaker 5: so I'm dropping both of them. Boom boom, drop drop.

1121
00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:39,080
Speaker 5: My sister and I are both twenty nine female, and

1122
00:52:39,120 --> 00:52:41,960
Speaker 5: my ex best friend is thirty female. Now. My ex

1123
00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,480
Speaker 5: best friend and I have been friends since middle school,

1124
00:52:44,560 --> 00:52:46,560
Speaker 5: so I've known her for the majority of my life.

1125
00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,319
Speaker 5: She's displayed things throughout our friendship that I didn't like,

1126
00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:52,480
Speaker 5: borderline racism, betrayal to others when she was getting closer

1127
00:52:52,480 --> 00:52:55,480
Speaker 5: to gas lighting, etcetera, etcetera. But I wasn't able to

1128
00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:57,920
Speaker 5: put into words why I felt a certain way about

1129
00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:00,600
Speaker 5: things she said or did until a few years ago,

1130
00:53:00,680 --> 00:53:03,160
Speaker 5: as I'm more able to speak up for myself, navigate

1131
00:53:03,160 --> 00:53:06,200
Speaker 5: my emotions, and just have more wisdom from life experience

1132
00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,439
Speaker 5: and getting older by the way. This comes from user

1133
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:11,720
Speaker 5: proud Ostrich eighty four sixty three on the r slash

1134
00:53:11,719 --> 00:53:14,640
Speaker 5: Okay storytimes. I'll read it. So, my sister is very

1135
00:53:14,640 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 5: passive and doesn't like to cause drama She's been this

1136
00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:20,200
Speaker 5: way her entire life. She'll do anything to ensure people

1137
00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 5: aren't mad, even if that means her own discomfort. A

1138
00:53:23,120 --> 00:53:25,680
Speaker 5: few months ago, I was visiting home, and since my

1139
00:53:25,760 --> 00:53:28,920
Speaker 5: sister and then best friend were also friends, we all

1140
00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:31,560
Speaker 5: decided to make time to hang out cute I'll call

1141
00:53:31,600 --> 00:53:35,799
Speaker 5: the ex best friend Rachel. Rachel called while I was

1142
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:38,120
Speaker 5: with family, asking to hang out, and I told her,

1143
00:53:38,160 --> 00:53:40,359
Speaker 5: as of now, I can't, but after, if she's still

1144
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 5: up for it, I can call and see if she's

1145
00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:45,040
Speaker 5: still free and we can hang and my sister will

1146
00:53:45,120 --> 00:53:47,239
Speaker 5: join us, which she didn't mind. I told her I

1147
00:53:47,239 --> 00:53:49,640
Speaker 5: couldn't text her until I got back home because I

1148
00:53:49,680 --> 00:53:52,120
Speaker 5: didn't have a SIM card and was relying on Wi Fi,

1149
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:55,080
Speaker 5: which she knows, and she said she had other things

1150
00:53:55,080 --> 00:53:57,440
Speaker 5: to do and we could talk later and see. I

1151
00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:59,480
Speaker 5: never get a SIM card when I come home because

1152
00:53:59,480 --> 00:54:01,759
Speaker 5: I'm usually with family or a close friend anyway, and

1153
00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,640
Speaker 5: I don't need my phone like that. She decided to

1154
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:07,600
Speaker 5: communicate with my sister instead. They were texting pretty much

1155
00:54:07,600 --> 00:54:09,839
Speaker 5: all day, with Rachel asking if we were still going

1156
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,920
Speaker 5: to hang out with her, what time do you think

1157
00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:13,960
Speaker 5: will be ready? She even told my sister that she

1158
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:16,759
Speaker 5: needed to know soon because she has two kids and

1159
00:54:16,840 --> 00:54:21,800
Speaker 5: needs to secure a babysitter. My sister would reply like sure,

1160
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:24,960
Speaker 5: or just passive replies that would leave the other person

1161
00:54:25,080 --> 00:54:28,080
Speaker 5: unsure of a yes or no. My sister never mentioned

1162
00:54:28,239 --> 00:54:30,960
Speaker 5: any of this to me. I found out later. Oh no,

1163
00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:33,640
Speaker 5: it's about one am at this point, and I call

1164
00:54:33,719 --> 00:54:36,000
Speaker 5: the friend. I hang out late with friends all the

1165
00:54:36,040 --> 00:54:38,919
Speaker 5: time since I'm single and have no kids. Rachel only

1166
00:54:38,960 --> 00:54:41,480
Speaker 5: does sometimes if she has her kids. She'll just say

1167
00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:43,360
Speaker 5: let's hang at her place, and if she doesn't have

1168
00:54:43,360 --> 00:54:45,000
Speaker 5: her kids, we'll go out. She was out of the

1169
00:54:45,040 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 5: hook a lounge, but said she was going to keep

1170
00:54:47,080 --> 00:54:49,720
Speaker 5: hanging with who she was with and we could go home.

1171
00:54:50,360 --> 00:54:52,040
Speaker 5: I thought it was weird, but I let it go.

1172
00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:54,399
Speaker 5: She sent me a voice message like two hours later,

1173
00:54:54,480 --> 00:54:57,480
Speaker 5: calling me a crappy friend and saying how disrespectful I

1174
00:54:57,680 --> 00:54:59,879
Speaker 5: was for making her wait for me when I knew

1175
00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:02,440
Speaker 5: she she needed a babysitter and all of this other stuff.

1176
00:55:02,480 --> 00:55:04,360
Speaker 5: I told her, I don't know what she's talking about,

1177
00:55:04,400 --> 00:55:06,920
Speaker 5: because the last time we talked, we agreed I couldn't

1178
00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:08,919
Speaker 5: promise to hang out, but I would text her later

1179
00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:10,920
Speaker 5: and see if she was still free. We have always

1180
00:55:10,960 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 5: done this, so I was confused on why this was

1181
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:17,120
Speaker 5: an issue. She replied, I talked to your sister, so

1182
00:55:17,160 --> 00:55:19,120
Speaker 5: why am I getting yelled at and being spoken to

1183
00:55:19,280 --> 00:55:22,600
Speaker 5: like this? It was my sister's fault. Why are you

1184
00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:26,960
Speaker 5: doing this to me? I then called my sister and

1185
00:55:27,000 --> 00:55:29,080
Speaker 5: she admitted to talking to her throughout the day, but

1186
00:55:29,120 --> 00:55:32,480
Speaker 5: denies that she promised her a time or anything. After

1187
00:55:32,520 --> 00:55:35,040
Speaker 5: pushing a bit more, I found her responses to Rachel

1188
00:55:35,080 --> 00:55:37,840
Speaker 5: were passive. When Rachel told her she needed to know

1189
00:55:37,960 --> 00:55:40,360
Speaker 5: now around eight pm if she needed to get a

1190
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:43,480
Speaker 5: babysitter and pushing her to confirm a time. Instead of

1191
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:46,000
Speaker 5: my sister saying let's just plan a different day because

1192
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:48,719
Speaker 5: we're still with family, she told her, if you want to,

1193
00:55:48,840 --> 00:55:52,839
Speaker 5: then that's cool, which Rachel just took as a yes.

1194
00:55:53,080 --> 00:55:55,319
Speaker 5: Oh god, yell. Sister's got a one out of ten

1195
00:55:55,360 --> 00:56:01,200
Speaker 5: communication level right now. This is wild. Cannot communicate. If

1196
00:56:01,239 --> 00:56:03,880
Speaker 5: I had known they were texting and that Rachel was

1197
00:56:03,920 --> 00:56:06,640
Speaker 5: pushing for a time and needed a babysitter, I would

1198
00:56:06,640 --> 00:56:09,000
Speaker 5: have told her to tell her let's just reschedule to

1199
00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:11,400
Speaker 5: the next day or something. I can see why Rachel

1200
00:56:11,400 --> 00:56:13,880
Speaker 5: would be mad, but her reaction to me and my

1201
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:17,000
Speaker 5: sister was so different. To me, she was so rude

1202
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:19,359
Speaker 5: and I wasn't even a part of the conversation. And

1203
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:22,560
Speaker 5: to my sister she was very calm. All she said

1204
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:25,279
Speaker 5: to her was I'm really unhappy about how tonight went

1205
00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:27,719
Speaker 5: and I'm too angry to talk, so let's talk later.

1206
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:30,920
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know, dude. She literally said she's

1207
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:34,000
Speaker 5: too angry to talk. Sounds pretty angry to me. Yeah,

1208
00:56:34,560 --> 00:56:37,960
Speaker 5: you just happened to be on the wrong side of it. True.

1209
00:56:38,440 --> 00:56:40,080
Speaker 5: It's not like I want her to be rude to

1210
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 5: my sister, but I deserve that same message. If anything,

1211
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:46,680
Speaker 5: my sister is very fragile emotionally, so we can't tell

1212
00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,480
Speaker 5: her a lot if we're upset with her. I wanted to,

1213
00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:52,160
Speaker 5: but my mom advised against it because she's not strong

1214
00:56:52,280 --> 00:56:55,360
Speaker 5: mentally like I am. She takes things to heart and

1215
00:56:55,400 --> 00:56:58,160
Speaker 5: doesn't let it go, so it frequently affects her. I

1216
00:56:58,239 --> 00:57:00,960
Speaker 5: kept quiet, hoping she would bring it up and apologize

1217
00:57:00,960 --> 00:57:03,360
Speaker 5: for her part, which she never did. As for Rachel,

1218
00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,600
Speaker 5: that was my last straw with her and I cut contact.

1219
00:57:07,040 --> 00:57:09,880
Speaker 5: Although I understand why she was upset, I don't feel

1220
00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:12,240
Speaker 5: I deserve to be talked to that way. It doesn't

1221
00:57:12,280 --> 00:57:14,960
Speaker 5: compare to things she's done in the past, but I

1222
00:57:15,040 --> 00:57:18,040
Speaker 5: was just done at that point. Fast forward to now,

1223
00:57:18,160 --> 00:57:20,680
Speaker 5: my mom called and mentioned my sister and Rachel still

1224
00:57:20,720 --> 00:57:23,280
Speaker 5: hang out. She wasn't trying to be messy, it just

1225
00:57:23,400 --> 00:57:27,520
Speaker 5: slipped out. I was angry. My sister doesn't know everything

1226
00:57:27,560 --> 00:57:29,520
Speaker 5: that's happened in the past with Rachel, but she was

1227
00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:31,800
Speaker 5: a part of this situation and knows everything about how

1228
00:57:31,800 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 5: she treated me. I would never stay friends with someone

1229
00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:37,840
Speaker 5: who blatantly disrespected my sister. I always have her back

1230
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:40,240
Speaker 5: no matter what, but I just feel like she never

1231
00:57:40,280 --> 00:57:43,680
Speaker 5: had mine when it involves other people, she's too worried

1232
00:57:43,680 --> 00:57:47,120
Speaker 5: about their feelings. Okay, she did this before with another

1233
00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:49,120
Speaker 5: friend of mine who did me wrong, but we were

1234
00:57:49,160 --> 00:57:51,840
Speaker 5: like seventeen, so I let it go. But it just

1235
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,760
Speaker 5: brought back those feelings of being gas lit and told

1236
00:57:54,800 --> 00:57:59,800
Speaker 5: it's not a big deal, and it is a huge deal.

1239
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:09,400
Speaker 5: What are your thoughts on this? Honestly, Well, I mean

1240
00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:11,640
Speaker 5: she's saying that we don't have all the other stuff.

1241
00:58:11,720 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 5: As to why she's cutting Rachel off, it does seem

1242
00:58:14,480 --> 00:58:18,880
Speaker 5: like it's a bit of a drastic response to completely

1243
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:21,880
Speaker 5: cut this person off just because they like snapped at

1244
00:58:21,920 --> 00:58:25,200
Speaker 5: you after they were annoyed. Like I can put myself

1245
00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 5: in her shoes, and I would feel so annoyed if

1246
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:30,280
Speaker 5: I was waiting for people all night to hang out, Yeah,

1247
00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:32,480
Speaker 5: and then they never gave me a time, and then

1248
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 5: they call me at one in the morning being like, Hey,

1249
00:58:34,640 --> 00:58:37,360
Speaker 5: what's up, I'd be like, shut up. Yeah, I'm already

1250
00:58:37,360 --> 00:58:39,320
Speaker 5: hanging out with these other people. I'm not gonna what now,

1251
00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:42,240
Speaker 5: I'm gonna ditch them for you? Yeah, no plans McGee.

1252
00:58:44,120 --> 00:58:46,480
Speaker 5: Now I don't really want to talk to my sister anymore.

1253
00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 5: Oh great, now she's doubling down. Beautiful, especially since I

1254
00:58:50,600 --> 00:58:53,640
Speaker 5: can't even really bring up the situation without it affecting

1255
00:58:53,640 --> 00:58:56,760
Speaker 5: her mentally. Uh. It's not that I don't love her.

1256
00:58:56,800 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 5: She'll always be my sister, but I also saw my

1257
00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:02,000
Speaker 5: sister as my best friend. I don't feel that anymore.

1258
00:59:02,400 --> 00:59:04,880
Speaker 5: We talked almost every day, but these days we don't.

1259
00:59:05,160 --> 00:59:07,520
Speaker 5: The last time I was visiting home, I was happy

1260
00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:09,800
Speaker 5: to see her, but I didn't make plans to hang

1261
00:59:09,880 --> 00:59:13,160
Speaker 5: one on one just with other family there. Am I

1262
00:59:13,280 --> 00:59:15,720
Speaker 5: the a hole for pulling away from my sister? Am

1263
00:59:15,720 --> 00:59:18,640
Speaker 5: I being too harsh and sensitive? Please don't be too mean.

1264
00:59:20,200 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 5: If I'm the problem, it's definitely something I'm willing to

1265
00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,959
Speaker 5: work on. And I'm even and I've even looked into

1266
00:59:26,000 --> 00:59:29,160
Speaker 5: therapy as I'm prone to overthinking. But I feel very

1267
00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:34,160
Speaker 5: wronged right now. You're valid and feeling that you're wronged. Yeah,

1268
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:34,520
Speaker 5: that's true.

1269
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:37,880
Speaker 3: Take a week think about it. Don't be distancing herself.

1270
00:59:38,000 --> 00:59:40,280
Speaker 3: Just give yourself some space some time.

1271
00:59:40,800 --> 00:59:43,720
Speaker 5: We don't know everything that's happened with Rachel. We don't.

1272
00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:49,480
Speaker 5: Don't cut out your sister over this unnecessary unnecessary and like,

1273
00:59:50,040 --> 00:59:52,600
Speaker 5: you can't be mad at your sister for like still

1274
00:59:52,640 --> 00:59:57,400
Speaker 5: being friends with somebody who you say, like blatantly disrespected you.

1275
00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,320
Speaker 5: But it's like give in the context, it was a

1276
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:07,320
Speaker 5: little understandable. Yeah, that someone could snap in that situation. Yeah,

1277
01:00:07,520 --> 01:00:11,520
Speaker 5: So just hopefully you can forgive and be friends again.

1278
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:13,800
Speaker 5: I'm hoping you can find a way to forgive them both.

1279
01:00:15,200 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 5: That's just me though, But that's the end of the episode.
