He 382 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,280 Speaker 1: has another coworker slash mutual friend of ours who we 383 00:20:27,400 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 1: are inviting to the wedding, and he's worried Melissa, we'll 384 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 1: find out that we're inviting another coworker, not her. That 385 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 1: quote you don't understand how awkward and uncomfortable this situation 386 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: makes me feel, he says, to which I remind him 387 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:43,000 Speaker 1: that this girl and the name Switcheroo has been awkward 388 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:48,120 Speaker 1: and uncomfortable for me the whole relationship. Again, he's been 389 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:54,680 Speaker 1: calling Megan Melissa the entire relationship, the insietime beginning. Since 390 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 1: it's the dawn of time, I'm not sure he knows 391 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: who he's marrying on us. 392 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,440 Speaker 2: I don't think I think he's It's really up in 393 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 2: the air right now. 394 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:04,000 Speaker 1: So am I the a hole for not wanting to 395 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:09,359 Speaker 1: invite his coworker to our wedding? I want to know 396 00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:12,600 Speaker 1: from chat? Is op the a hole for not inviting 397 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: the coworker to the wedding? I think, honestly everyone's going 398 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 1: to say that. But but divorce or therapy for this? Yeah, 399 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: divorce or therapy. 400 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:29,160 Speaker 2: He keeps lying maybe something, but the lying. 401 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:31,960 Speaker 1: The lie is a red flag for me because like, 402 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:35,159 Speaker 1: all right, you know, as we've seen, we're both not 403 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 1: really good at at uh say, Megan, We're not We're 404 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: not good at names. I think a name slip up, 405 00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 1: although terrible, not divorce worthy, No, not divorce worthy. It's 406 00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:51,159 Speaker 1: it's it's bad, sure, but not divorce worthy. But the 407 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 1: continual over years name switch up. 408 00:21:55,400 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 2: The getting getting a conversation about taking space from her. 409 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:05,960 Speaker 1: About how uncomfortable Melissa uh makes, Megan. 410 00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,520 Speaker 2: Assisting that she asked to come to the wedding and 411 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:13,359 Speaker 2: insisting that she works directly under him, that he mentors 412 00:22:13,520 --> 00:22:15,920 Speaker 2: her whatever that means, lying about. 413 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,720 Speaker 1: That and lying about it. That is a little bit 414 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:23,399 Speaker 1: too far. I think you have to really say, like, 415 00:22:24,160 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 1: we need so much therapy, we need so much like 416 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,719 Speaker 1: this is because right now it doesn't seem like he's 417 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,879 Speaker 1: taking it seriously. He's not taking it. I don't think 418 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:33,480 Speaker 1: he realizes how much his marriage is on the rocks 419 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:33,760 Speaker 1: right now. 420 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 2: I don't. He's like, oh, well, I feel bad because 421 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:37,879 Speaker 2: she's not coming to the wedding, and he's like, we 422 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 2: might on have a wedding. 423 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 1: Yeah exactly, yeah, exactly. Yeah. So it seems like I'm 424 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,400 Speaker 1: looking at Marina g She says, not the a whole 425 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: call off the wedding. Ben has no respect for you. 426 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 1: Breathe me to the horizons? Is how often does she 427 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,920 Speaker 1: call or does he call Megan? Melissa? 428 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:56,640 Speaker 3: Yeah? 429 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,479 Speaker 2: Does he ever switch it up on the other end? 430 00:22:58,800 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: I don't know which. 431 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,520 Speaker 4: We haven't heard that yet, switched to that up? So hmmm. 432 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: Diana says, I wouldn't be able to trust him anymore, 433 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 1: so there's no point getting married. 434 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,159 Speaker 2: I think definitely delay the wedding. 435 00:23:12,520 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 1: I think delay wedding our RP. Carolina says, divorce he 436 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:18,360 Speaker 1: lied multiple times? Yeah, I mean I think I wouldn't 437 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: if I was in this situation.

He works very closely with a girl called Charlie, 535 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,600 Speaker 2: female twenty eight, because their jobs are interlinked. They go 536 00:28:12,680 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 2: on overnight work trips twice a month, travel to another 537 00:28:15,640 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 2: country together twice a year, et cetera. Oh, by the way, 538 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:24,200 Speaker 2: so bad, not good. 539 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: Oh they're not necessarily so bad, but the past off 540 00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: the title.

I know where his heart is. 545 00:28:42,160 --> 00:28:46,280 Speaker 2: He keeps things completely platonic and talks about me constantly. 546 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,600 Speaker 2: Charlie's really attractive and gets a lot of male attention. 547 00:28:50,800 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 2: Oh no, Historically, the only incident that gave me a 548 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 2: red flag was her inviting my boyfriend one on one 549 00:28:56,720 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: to a spa on one of their work trips, which 550 00:28:59,880 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 2: he declined. This weekend, he invited me on a work 551 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 2: bar crawl and all was well. I said hi to Charlie, 552 00:29:07,520 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 2: spoke to his other workmates. Charlie didn't really make any 553 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,800 Speaker 2: effort with me. I initiated once in the second bar, 554 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 2: and that was our only conversation. However, she spent the 555 00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:20,239 Speaker 2: night constantly going up to my boyfriend and pulling him 556 00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 2: over for private chats in front of me. 557 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: Private chats? 558 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:28,360 Speaker 2: What kind of private chats? She mostly ignored my existence, 559 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:32,120 Speaker 2: didn't say anything when we spoke, like X talks about 560 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 2: you all the time, you two are so cute, et cetera, 561 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:36,960 Speaker 2: which I would do if I were meeting my work 562 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:40,640 Speaker 2: best friend's fiance to make her comfortable. She acted like 563 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 2: she didn't even know we were together, stuck to him, and 564 00:29:44,120 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 2: basically ignored me the whole night. Not cool in bart? 565 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 1: What going. 566 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 2: In Bar three, Charlie pulled me aside to take photos 567 00:29:57,240 --> 00:29:59,000 Speaker 2: of her and my boyfriend together. 568 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: He's like, okay, can you please just take some photos? 569 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 1: I think we look better together. 570 00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 2: And Charlie's like hey and nope.

I don't 577 00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 1: know if you should be out right now. 578 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,960 Speaker 2: She took photos with nobody else and posted only him 579 00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 2: on her Instagram story, Allegedly God my boyfriend said that 580 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: she really enjoys male attention. There were two guys she 581 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:33,280 Speaker 2: was flirting with, one of which was my boyfriend's best friend. 582 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:36,520 Speaker 2: Later on, even he and my own friend who came 583 00:30:36,560 --> 00:30:41,520 Speaker 2: along independently noticed how frequently Charlie kept approaching my boyfriend 584 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 2: and thought it was weird considering this is the first 585 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 2: time I'm meeting her. I kind of feel disrespected and uncomfortable. 586 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 2: They chat to each other a lot on social media 587 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 2: since they're friends. I feel like since all the guys 588 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,760 Speaker 2: give her attention, she seems to seek it most from 589 00:30:56,760 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 2: my boyfriend, as he's the only one who doesn't flirt her. 590 00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:03,600 Speaker 2: No lanes have been crossed, and they have to see 591 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,000 Speaker 2: each other every day, so it's not really reached a 592 00:31:06,080 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 2: level where they should address it. I don't want to 593 00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:11,360 Speaker 2: ruin his friendship and make it awkward. I just don't 594 00:31:11,360 --> 00:31:13,680 Speaker 2: know how to feel or what to do. I don't 595 00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 2: know if she's thick or intentionally trying to step on 596 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:20,920 Speaker 2: my toes. She's thick. I've spoken to my boyfriend about 597 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 2: this all. He agrees it's weird, and I told him 598 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 2: to just keep an eye on her, but nothing further 599 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,600 Speaker 2: than that. It's good that he recognizes that there's something off. 600 00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's as putting the boundaries us. 601 00:31:34,040 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 2: It's like, I'm not going to the spa.

It sounds 607 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:51,040 Speaker 1: like she's she's, yeah, the one trying to weasel her 608 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 1: way in, but so there's no weaseling. Do you do 609 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 1: you think you should preemptive measures?

His workmate advised that Charlie has made 771 00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:21,520 Speaker 2: inappropriate comments to him as well in the past about 772 00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 2: her spicy toys, to which he replied and not at work. 773 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 2: Charlie also treated his Workmad's girlfriend.

Charlie 777 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 2: also treated his Workmatee's girlfriends similarly. During a different workouting 778 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,120 Speaker 2: two weeks ago, Charlie came up to my boyfriend's desk 779 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 2: thrice I, insisting that they should match costumes for Halloween. 780 00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 1: M M, what dude, that is like?

She did not accidentally, 785 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:08,480 Speaker 2: That was not an accident. That was not an accident, 786 00:40:08,640 --> 00:40:11,719 Speaker 2: and suggested characters that were a couple. He shot her 787 00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 2: down on three separate occasions, saying that that would only 788 00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:18,000 Speaker 2: be okay if she were me. So from here on, 789 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 2: it's been a bit of a miserable situation for my 790 00:40:20,320 --> 00:40:24,000 Speaker 2: boyfriend where he has been purposely cold at work and 791 00:40:24,040 --> 00:40:27,799 Speaker 2: has stopped messaging her outside of work. He has been 792 00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 2: telling her to go away when she approaches his desk, 793 00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 2: and even suggested she get a train on their next 794 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:36,239 Speaker 2: work trip instead of riding in the same vehicle. So 795 00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 2: now he's like full on saying like boundaries all her boundaries, 796 00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:44,359 Speaker 2: which is good. It's made his work situation a bit 797 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 2: awful because he has a lovely, bubbly person. He is 798 00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:51,800 Speaker 2: a lovely, bubbly person and cannot maintain a fake persona 799 00:40:51,800 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 2: of friendship without being miserable. So given the misery of 800 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,919 Speaker 2: it all, my boyfriend decided to finally confront Charlie during 801 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 2: their long journey back from a work trip yesterday.

She 806 00:41:17,040 --> 00:41:19,239 Speaker 2: said that she sent him the outfit pictures because she 807 00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:22,320 Speaker 2: saw him as one of the girls, but she supposedly 808 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 2: sent those photos to my boyfriend and the guy she 809 00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 2: has a crush on, I don't buy that.

You are my boyfriend. 870 00:44:20,400 --> 00:44:22,840 Speaker 2: Can go back to work without the attention of the 871 00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,920 Speaker 2: elephant in the room, savage. I said I probably shouldn't 872 00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:28,680 Speaker 2: attend their work Christmas party, and he agreed, saying it 873 00:44:28,719 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 2: will cause tension. But you know what would never cause tension? 874 00:44:32,880 --> 00:44:35,480 Speaker 2: You joining us live every weekday at three pm PST. 875 00:44:35,800 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: Just have a promile sexual at tension. 876 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 2: But there is a little bit left to this story. 877 00:44:42,120 --> 00:44:44,000 Speaker 2: But what's your what's your final thoughts? 878 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 1: Uh w, boyfriend?

But I can't 884 00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 2: figure out why or what I should say, if I 885 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:04,040 Speaker 2: should say anything at all, since he's officially done everything 886 00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 2: he can. I don't know what boundaries to consider moving 887 00:45:07,120 --> 00:45:09,840 Speaker 2: forward in terms of their friendship, or if I should 888 00:45:09,880 --> 00:45:11,520 Speaker 2: just let it go back to how it used to 889 00:45:11,600 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 2: be with the cautionary side the boundaries now in place. 890 00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,359 Speaker 2: I don't care if she apologizes I don't like her. 891 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:21,760 Speaker 2: Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks for all the help, guys. 892 00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:24,680 Speaker 2: I have read every last comment and appreciate the support. 893 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: Well, I think what's cool here is she's he's pre 894 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:33,799 Speaker 1: emptying what I think Ope needs exactly. It's like this 895 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,959 Speaker 1: whole idea. You know, in a relationship, you don't want 896 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,440 Speaker 1: to tell someone how to like love you and how 897 00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:42,319 Speaker 1: to like respect. You just want them to know. And yes, 898 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:44,480 Speaker 1: there needs to be alignment every once in a while. 899 00:45:44,880 --> 00:45:45,600 Speaker 2: A mind reader. 900 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:47,799 Speaker 1: No one's a mind reader, but ideally they are. 901 00:45:48,239 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 2: But ideally you should be a mind reader. 902 00:45:50,120 --> 00:45:55,320 Speaker 1: And I think what is amazing about Opie's boyfriend is 903 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 1: like he's thinking about what Ope would want, what would 904 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:01,640 Speaker 1: make her feel comfortable. Yes, and so he's pre empting 905 00:46:02,560 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 1: like her response by taking action. 906 00:46:05,440 --> 00:46:07,759 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I think that OP, I mean OPI says 907 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:09,799 Speaker 2: that she's still uncomfortable. I think it's just saying like, hey, 908 00:46:10,320 --> 00:46:13,160 Speaker 2: I feel like you've done a great job. I don't know, 909 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,680 Speaker 2: I think op he could still bring up that she 910 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 2: doesn't like this girl, but as long as she's coming 911 00:46:20,080 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 2: from a place where she's like, I know that you've 912 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 2: done everything, like you've done really great and this is 913 00:46:24,719 --> 00:46:27,520 Speaker 2: not a reflection on you or your actions at all. 914 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:29,880 Speaker 2: I just want to like make sure that she's not 915 00:46:29,960 --> 00:46:32,600 Speaker 2: making you uncomfortable, like we've done everything, you know. 916 00:46:32,760 --> 00:46:36,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is this is great. I'm I'm I'm fully 917 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: I'm fully here for this relationship. This is like, this 918 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:39,960 Speaker 1: is excellent communication.
