Your marriage is over. 7 00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,520 Speaker 1: I can't even wrap my head around what's happening right now. 8 00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:22,960 Speaker 1: I'm going to try and be as rational as possible. 9 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: The background, we met thirteen years ago and fell madly 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:29,960 Speaker 1: in love. We still are what everyone calls the perfect couple, 11 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,479 Speaker 1: and up until the other nights, I believed it. By 12 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,879 Speaker 1: the way, this comes from delete it and if you 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:37,760 Speaker 1: want to send in your own stories, go to the 14 00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 1: r slash of Okay Storytime star Bread. So we talk 15 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 1: openly and honestly. I thought about everything. We are best friends, 16 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 1: have amazing, spicy sleep, travel twice a year, and have 17 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 1: made an amazing home together. We don't have any children, 18 00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 1: something we decided before getting married for various reasons. Ah, 19 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 1: but he made a decision somewhere else. Yes, apparently we 20 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: were both so happy with the decision because we have 21 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,320 Speaker 1: such a good life just us, the three cats and 22 00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 1: a dog. I've been nothing but thrilled with our relationship 23 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 1: and the life we've built. When we met, I knew 24 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: that he had an ex wife. He didn't like talking 25 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:21,119 Speaker 1: about her, but I know she was pretty awful, emotionally abusive, controlling, 26 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: and I think even a bit physically harmful too. She 27 00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: had an affair leading up to their divorce. She really 28 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: did a number on him, and he was single for 29 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:34,760 Speaker 1: a long time until he started dating again, which was MEO. 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: I've always since there was something he couldn't quite tell me. 31 00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:42,200 Speaker 1: He's always a cheerful guy around people and even with me, 32 00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: but once I heard him crying in the shower. And 33 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: sometimes I'll come into a room and he'll just be 34 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: staring at a wall looking absolutely depressed. 35 00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 2: Oh oh man. 36 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: When I talked to him, he'll say something sweet, like 37 00:01:57,600 --> 00:01:59,640 Speaker 1: he was thinking about what his life would be like 38 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 1: if you ever met me, or if he lost me. 39 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: I thought it was weird because I don't think like that, 40 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,520 Speaker 1: but I believed him, because why wouldn't I. But we 41 00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: have the next section, Sofia, because that was the background. Yeah, 42 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: you know what This new section is titled what the 43 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: Truth Comes Out? 44 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 2: Ouch, oh man, that's what it's titled The Truth Comes Out. 45 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 2: It's here, it's hot off the presses. 46 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: It's hot off the presses. Are we actually physically hot? 47 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 2: Actually physically hot too. 48 00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 1: Let's let's cool it down. Let's crank the temperature down 49 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: in here. Toasty toasty story. Well, last weekend we were 50 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 1: at his family's house for a big get together. They 51 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 1: do this all the time. He usually drinks when he's 52 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: with his brother, but this time we were really putting 53 00:02:42,880 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: them back. Normally he is really happy, friendly, wasted. This 54 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: time he was argumentative and stand offish. I let him 55 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:52,480 Speaker 1: be and was hanging out with my sister in law 56 00:02:52,480 --> 00:02:54,840 Speaker 1: for ages. When I went looking for him. He was 57 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 1: in the basement with his brother. The steps down are 58 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: behind the couch that they were sitting on. I heard 59 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,640 Speaker 1: them talking as I was going down, and my husband 60 00:03:03,720 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: was saying things like eighteen man, f huh and stuff 61 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: about missing so much ooh yeah, yeah, I think I 62 00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:16,520 Speaker 1: think we. 63 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 2: Know, we know, we know, we know. 64 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:23,320 Speaker 3: Yeah. So my question now is did he abandon the 65 00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 3: kids or has he been kept outside? 66 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 1: It seems a little that comment suggests that he was 67 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 1: being He wasn't. He didn't didn't have the option. 68 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 3: Well, we all know, a deadbeat dead classic is it's like, oh, oh, suddenly, 69 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,440 Speaker 3: now I'm upset now that you're eighteen and I'm not 70 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 3: legally supposed to take care of you. 71 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:45,080 Speaker 1: Now I wish I would have. 72 00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,360 Speaker 2: Brew Yeah, I mean, but yeah, it seems like there's 73 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: a potential that these kids weren't There was no overlap here. 74 00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 2: This this was from before. 75 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 1: It's possible. It's possible it could have been a kid 76 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 1: outside of the relationship and that he had no idea about. 77 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 1: This is all possible. We are still in potentially okay 78 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:08,160 Speaker 1: grounds here, we're in the discovery phase. But his brother 79 00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:11,760 Speaker 1: was confronting him when I made my presence known. I 80 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: wasn't even down the stairs yet, not trying to eavesdrop. 81 00:04:14,400 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 1: My husband got mad like I've never seen him. He 82 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,280 Speaker 1: was telling me to go back upstairs and leave him alone. 83 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,719 Speaker 1: I was really hurt, having never been talked to like that. 84 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:25,000 Speaker 1: I did go back up for a while until my 85 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,119 Speaker 1: brother in law said that he was going to sleep 86 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 1: it off there and would see me in the morning. 87 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: This is getting serious. My husband finally comes home after 88 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: eleven am in the morning, very unwell and apologetic, saying 89 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: that he needed to have a serious talk. I've been 90 00:04:40,720 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 1: up all night freaking out. I know it seems weird, 91 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:46,479 Speaker 1: but we've never been apart. At night, I thought he 92 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 1: was having an affair, wanting a divorce, et cetera, et cetera. 93 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: He told me that he had two children with his 94 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: ex wife. 95 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,919 Speaker 2: Okay, so ex wife, this is shocking news. But at 96 00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 2: least it's not children during the relationship. 97 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: Or is it oh? Or is it oh? 98 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,359 Speaker 2: He's like, yeah, I had two children with my ex wife. 99 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: Didn't tell you when. 100 00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:13,719 Speaker 1: You know what they say the mistress, you know, is 101 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: the mistress. Sometimes that's a saying that they say, very common. 102 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:24,080 Speaker 1: That's right. What The son was five and the daughter 103 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,120 Speaker 1: was two when they got divorced. When the ex wife 104 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: decided to marry the guy she was having an affair with, oof, 105 00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: she asked that my husband give up his rights and 106 00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:38,680 Speaker 1: let her new husband adopt them. Is that even legal 107 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,039 Speaker 1: if he does it? He said that she threatened and 108 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,039 Speaker 1: manipulated him until he agreed. The story was really long, 109 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: but that's the idea. We talked the whole day, but 110 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,719 Speaker 1: I just can't understand. The children are not children anymore. 111 00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: The girl just turned eighteen. It was her birthday that 112 00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 1: night that he got so wasted. Then one is twenty 113 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:04,479 Speaker 1: one years old. He wants to contact them now that 114 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: they're grown and get in touch with them without having 115 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 1: to go through their mother. I don't know if that's 116 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 1: even a good idea. How could he give up his children? 117 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: How could he allow someone so unstable to raise them? 118 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: That's another good point. How could he lie to me 119 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: for thirteen years? It might be selfish, but I'm most 120 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:26,480 Speaker 1: upset about that. Yeah, I think that's. 121 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: It's a very valid thing to be upset about. You 122 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:31,360 Speaker 2: don't know the kids. Yeah, obviously it's an important thing. 123 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 2: But the thing that affecting you is that he lied. 124 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, and now it's like, what else has he lied 125 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: about it? If he's kept that for thirteen years, It might 126 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 1: be selfish, but I'm the most upset about that. His 127 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: family obviously knew, and I'm super close to him. 128 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 2: Yeah, so they all lied to you too, Dang. 129 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if I can trust him to lie 130 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 1: about something so big for so long. He said it's 131 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: because he was deeply ashamed. I don't think that's good enough. 132 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 1: What now, Well, what's going to happen right now is 133 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to turn to my trust. Did co hosts 134 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: Dakota and Sophia Okay, please respond with your thoughts. 135 00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,800 Speaker 2: Oh man, I mean I don't think that's a reasonable answer, 136 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 2: or I don't think that's that's a. 137 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 3: Good enough answer.

I 173 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: can't say I'm over it, but really it's only been 174 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: about a week and a half. We've talked and talked, 175 00:09:00,800 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: and while I still don't agree with his decision to 176 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,480 Speaker 1: keep me in the dark, I'm trying to accept it. 177 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: The whole giving up his kids thing is that makes 178 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: me uncomfortable, and I haven't gotten much more explanation, but 179 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:14,319 Speaker 1: I can't even begin to put myself in that situation, 180 00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:16,840 Speaker 1: so I would take his word that he did what 181 00:09:16,920 --> 00:09:20,040 Speaker 1: he had no do. No. I talked to his family 182 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: as well. They didn't know too much about the situation 183 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 1: because him and the wife lived on the other side 184 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 1: of the country. 185 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 2: No about his two and five year old. 186 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 1: I think they did, but they didn't know much about it. 187 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 2: That's still crazy to me. 188 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:33,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, that they would be like, Yo, what's going. 189 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: On happened here? What happened to your two and five 190 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 2: year old children? 191 00:09:35,679 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 3: Yeah? 192 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 1: Where's your kids? Where did they go? The wife really 193 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 1: didn't like visiting them, and they were only invited over 194 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 1: once after the children were born in five years. It 195 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 1: wasn't a pleasant holiday and all the family felt very uncomfortable. 196 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,959 Speaker 1: Apparently they were not made to feel welcome by her. 197 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 1: After finding out about my husband's children, he's felt like 198 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 1: now he can make real efforts into trying to find them. 199 00:09:58,760 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 1: The one main thing holding him back was not wanting 200 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: to do something like this behind my back and being 201 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:04,840 Speaker 1: so afraid of telling you. 202 00:10:04,720 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 3: You did this was all behind her back, the whole things, 203 00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 3: behind her back. 204 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 1: The whole thing. So he did some proper searching on Facebook, 205 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: not just in the area that he left them, but 206 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 1: the whole country he had to. He had to weed 207 00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: through lots of people, even contact a few that weren't right. 208 00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 1: But he found the girl and she replied, and they 209 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: spoke on the phone. They waited a long time, and 210 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 1: here's what he learned. His son is in prison on 211 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: substance related charges. He is one year in on a 212 00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 1: three year sentence. I'm sorry, but like if I was 213 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:48,880 Speaker 1: the husband and I heard that, I'm like, I don't. Yeah, 214 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 1: this is my fault. 215 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 2: I mean, you left your children with like a crazy person. 216 00:10:55,760 --> 00:10:59,760 Speaker 1: I read ahead and it gets worse, Sophia. As for 217 00:10:59,880 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 1: the daughter, she has a two year old and is 218 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: pregnant at eighteen. Neither baby's father our fathers are in 219 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: the picture. She didn't finish high school. She doesn't even 220 00:11:10,960 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 1: remember the guy that her mom married after my husband, 221 00:11:13,640 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: because he left them so early on. The mom was 222 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,559 Speaker 1: a single mother, with men in and out all the time, 223 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 1: real losers. The kids were always told that their daddy 224 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 1: didn't want them. When they would be bad, the mom 225 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 1: would say, see this is why daddy left you. 226 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 2: That's like, oh my god, Well. 227 00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 3: Throw all these people into a thermonuclear reactor and the thing. 228 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 2: Is like, like, obviously this isn't true, but to the kids, 229 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 2: I mean, effectively, that is what he did. 230 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:45,640 Speaker 1: He laughed. 231 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,600 Speaker 2: Yes, he abandoned them. 232 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:52,840 Speaker 1: Yes, yes, like we need to. I think the reason 233 00:11:53,280 --> 00:11:55,559 Speaker 1: I think we're all thinking this, the reason why husband 234 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 1: is not revealing the black mail and the crazy manipulation, 235 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,280 Speaker 1: is that it wasn't anything so crazy that he couldn't 236 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: just like just just work yeah at it, and it's 237 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:06,839 Speaker 1: like you could probably go through the court of law 238 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: and everything else and get it all sort and situated. 239 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:09,320 Speaker 2: Exact one. 240 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,440 Speaker 1: Her mom and her live together. Neither work. The mom 241 00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 1: is wasted and sounds like a mean one. Husband is 242 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: really depressed about how things worked out for them. He 243 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,320 Speaker 1: wonders what would have happened if he had fought for them. Yeah, 244 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 1: he offered to meet with the daughter. She wasn't too eager, 245 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:28,040 Speaker 1: but didn't say she was against it, more of a yeah, 246 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: one day maybe kind of thing. She did ask for money, though, 247 00:12:31,960 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: so he sent her five thousand dollars a few days ago. 248 00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:37,960 Speaker 1: Yesterday she called looking for more, saying she had to 249 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,400 Speaker 1: pay off her debt and now needs money for the baby. 250 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 2: Got a baby. 251 00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: She has two children. She's eighteen years old. 252 00:12:45,440 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 3: Yes, which is I wanted to say, perfect opportunity for 253 00:12:48,679 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 3: him to come in and be like, I'll raise your 254 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,720 Speaker 3: two children. Yeah, I'll make up for the debt. I 255 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:58,319 Speaker 3: mean yeah, I mean probably not. Probably not a good 256 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:00,280 Speaker 3: this guy. I don't think this guy should be raising anybody. 257 00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 3: I mean, but this would really change Maybe they would 258 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 3: have been even worse if he had raised them. 259 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, this would really change how I looked 260 00:13:08,080 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 2: at Oh, my. 261 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:14,800 Speaker 1: Partner completely completely. Yeah, he feels so bad about everything, 262 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: so he's going to send the same again. I have 263 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: a feeling it's never going to stop. We are successful 264 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: people and have the money. But I feel like he'll 265 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 1: be taking advantage of It'll always be for the baby, 266 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: and I don't see him ever being able to say 267 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 1: no when his son is out. Is he going to 268 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:33,679 Speaker 1: expect the same thing? Is this something that he should 269 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:35,800 Speaker 1: be doing to make up for his mistakes. I don't 270 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 1: want to be a horrible person here, but the whole 271 00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:41,120 Speaker 1: thing makes me uncomfortable. I didn't sign up for kids 272 00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:44,600 Speaker 1: and grandkids, and now our money is going to them. 273 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 1: We have update two I mean than yeah, like Opie's right, 274 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 1: Like she's like, no, I did not sign up for this. 275 00:13:55,679 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: We decided to be child free, and now there's ram children. 276 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, and you're you're on the slippery slope of 277 00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 2: every time you pay, they're gonna ask for more. Yeah, 278 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,080 Speaker 2: because they know that they can manipulate you. 279 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 280 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 2: And it seems like they've learned the same tricks that 281 00:14:12,320 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: their mom maybe was using on you of I don't know, 282 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:20,960 Speaker 2: just asking you to do something and you are doing it. Yeah, ah, 283 00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: like oh piece, I don't know. Oh he's like, oh, 284 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 2: I didn't sign up for this. 285 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: You didn't. 286 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, you were lied to the contractor her marriage has changed. 287 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 1: Yep. 288 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 3: My concern would be she's like, we did I didn't 289 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 3: sign up to give all this money to them. It's 290 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,800 Speaker 3: like you're focusing on the wrong thing. You need to 291 00:14:40,840 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 3: probably leave this partnership exactly. 292 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:47,000 Speaker 2: Well, I think it is an important asset you're gonna lose, 293 00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 2: Like a lot of money is going to go to them. 294 00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:51,920 Speaker 2: But the point of that is that maybe this relationship 295 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:54,760 Speaker 2: is no longer viable because he's lying to or he's 296 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:55,560 Speaker 2: been lying to you. 297 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. And also too just like it almost feels like 298 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 1: he's like, oh the is just like this easy way 299 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,560 Speaker 1: to try to appease the guilt. It's not actual real work. 300 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:06,600 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, it's not real work. 301 00:15:07,160 --> 00:15:09,480 Speaker 1: Oh but, ladies and gentlemen, we have update number two, 302 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:14,120 Speaker 1: and let's just say it's not improving. No, things have 303 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: spiraled out of control. If you didn't think they were 304 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: already completely spiraled out, don't worry, they got worse. I 305 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:24,440 Speaker 1: can't believe how fast this is all happening. I mentioned 306 00:15:24,440 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 1: in some comments last time about how I convinced my 307 00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 1: husband to not send any more money to his daughter 308 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 1: without even meeting her, that there were better means of 309 00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:36,080 Speaker 1: handling the situation. He agreed, not easily, though, as she 310 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:39,000 Speaker 1: was really was saying how desperate she was, and told 311 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 1: his daughter. I was around while he was on the 312 00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 1: phone with her and did hear parts of a conversation. 313 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,920 Speaker 1: He actually blamed me for the change of plan, and 314 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,840 Speaker 1: I could tell he was desperately trying to be the 315 00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: good guy, which after everything, I can understand. She got angry, 316 00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 1: yelled at him and cried for a long time. When 317 00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: things calmed down that he said he was happy to 318 00:16:00,560 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: go see her as soon as possible, take her shopping 319 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,600 Speaker 1: stock up on diaper's formula of food for her whatever 320 00:16:06,640 --> 00:16:09,120 Speaker 1: she needed. She said it would be a lot easier 321 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 1: to just transfer the money again and she'd go get that. Thankfully, 322 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 1: he stood his ground. She eventually relented and he booked 323 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: a flight out last weekend. He went on his own, 324 00:16:18,880 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 1: which I thought was the right thing to do. I 325 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 1: barely heard anything until he got back checked in via 326 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,320 Speaker 1: text a couple of times. That was a bit odd 327 00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,800 Speaker 1: because we were always in contact, even during work hours. 328 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 1: So he got home Sunday night. He was there from 329 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:36,600 Speaker 1: Saturday afternoon to Sunday evening, staying at a hotel. That night. 330 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: It was like prying teeth to try and get anything 331 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,160 Speaker 1: out of him. He was in a horrible mood, and 332 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 1: the next day I found out the whole story. His 333 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:50,520 Speaker 1: daughter and ex are living in Squalor. They have a 334 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 1: tiny basement apartment where the daughter and baby sleep in 335 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 1: one bedroom and the mom sleeps on the couch. The 336 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 1: place is filthy, tiles missing in the ceiling, paint come 337 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 1: off the walls, et cetera. The mother looks extremely unwell. 338 00:17:04,359 --> 00:17:07,640 Speaker 1: Her skin is like she's in her sixties, skeleton, thin, 339 00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:11,760 Speaker 1: yellowed eyes, et cetera. The daughter is morbidly obese. Knew 340 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,480 Speaker 1: she was overweight from the pictures on Facebook, and he 341 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: gets the impression that she lays around the house all day. 342 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:21,040 Speaker 1: The X was surprisingly indifferent towards them. He said, it 343 00:17:21,080 --> 00:17:22,760 Speaker 1: was like all the fight had gone out of her 344 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,800 Speaker 1: and she's just given up. She's constantly drinking and smoking, 345 00:17:25,920 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: even around the baby. He didn't think that the daughter 346 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: was smoking or drinking while pregnant, or at least not 347 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: walk he was there. He wanted to know what the 348 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:38,880 Speaker 1: money had gone to. She explained about back rent bills, 349 00:17:39,000 --> 00:17:42,120 Speaker 1: credit cards, et cetera. He didn't ask to see anything. 350 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:45,280 Speaker 1: I think I would have. Yeah, I'd be like, prove 351 00:17:45,359 --> 00:17:49,240 Speaker 1: it totally fair. He took her shopping as promised. There 352 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:51,520 Speaker 1: wasn't much room for stocking up, but he did get 353 00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,400 Speaker 1: her enough to get her through a fortnite or so. 354 00:17:53,760 --> 00:17:56,000 Speaker 1: He hired a cleaning service to go there this week. 355 00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:58,879 Speaker 1: He got her a mattress as hers was moldy, a 356 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: better crib lenen's, all kinds of things to make the 357 00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:02,800 Speaker 1: place more livable. 358 00:18:03,119 --> 00:18:06,479 Speaker 3: Hey, guys, yes, I think it might also be the 359 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 3: mom's fault. Yeah, yeah, I'm thinking maybe it's also the 360 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 3: mom's fault. 361 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:14,719 Speaker 2: I thought we knew it was the mom's fault. 362 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 3: I was saying it was probably it could have been well, 363 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:23,720 Speaker 3: the dad's absence, a lack of stability. 364 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,640 Speaker 2: The dad's absence, and the mom being awful.

He seems so conflicted. 380 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:14,360 Speaker 1: He wasn't able to visit the sun yet. So Monday 381 00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 1: I learned the whole story, and Tuesday he drops this 382 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 1: bombshell on me.

It's a decent 400 00:20:07,040 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 1: size and a big step up from what he described. 401 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,439 Speaker 1: He wants to keep her close rather than renting her 402 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:14,680 Speaker 1: an apartment to keep an eye on her.

Are we gonna do this? 419 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:54,439 Speaker 1: It may be selfish, but I've asked him what my 420 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,879 Speaker 1: role in this will be. He assured me that my 421 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,199 Speaker 1: life isn't going to change much, that she will be 422 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,399 Speaker 1: his responsibilit and that he just might not have as 423 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 1: much time to devote to me. 424 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 2: Your life will change, your life will try not only 425 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 2: will he have less time to devote to you. You're 426 00:21:08,359 --> 00:21:11,080 Speaker 2: going to have a child in your apartment. Yeah, you 427 00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 2: want it to be child free, regardless of whether or 428 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 2: not you're caring for the child. If it's a baby, 429 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 2: it's going to be crying at night for your to 430 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:21,040 Speaker 2: wake up more. There's going to be a lot of 431 00:21:21,080 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 2: like safety things that need to change in the apartment. 432 00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 2: There's so many things that happen when you have a 433 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,000 Speaker 2: child in your house. 434 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:31,199 Speaker 1: Yeah, I do not one hundred percent sure of this. 435 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,639 Speaker 1: It does seem like they have a like upstairs, completely 436 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 1: separate unit. 437 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 2: But still I mean still crying. 438 00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, oh, one hundred percent. And it's again it 439 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 1: all goes back to the main point of like, she 440 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 1: didn't ask for this or sign up for this. She 441 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:48,840 Speaker 1: can't bear the burden of your mistakes. Yeah, that's that's 442 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: not This might be a situation of like, yeah, you 443 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:54,040 Speaker 1: don't want her, you want to be able to keep 444 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: an eye on her. Well, maybe you should have thought 445 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: of that eighteen years ago. Yeah. I would be willing 446 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: to accept some less time from him, but I don't 447 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: want to play grandma. What do you guys think? Is 448 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 1: there any way the situation can work. The more I 449 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,280 Speaker 1: think about it, the more I honestly can't see life 450 00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:11,040 Speaker 1: without my husband. He really is my other half. I'm 451 00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:13,440 Speaker 1: still mad at him for the deceit, but I don't 452 00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:16,439 Speaker 1: think I could actually ever leave him. Taking on a 453 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 1: mother slash grandmother role, though, is something I really don't 454 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:22,480 Speaker 1: want for myself. I mean, if it's possible to have 455 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,960 Speaker 1: them living on the same property as me having a 456 00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 1: relationship with my husband, but me without even work, or 457 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 1: do I just need to suck it up and expand 458 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: my family just really quick before we get into update 459 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,199 Speaker 1: number three, No, you don't. This is not your mess, 460 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:39,240 Speaker 1: not your responsibility. 461 00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 2: I think that Op needs to realize that her husband 462 00:22:42,880 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 2: may be her other half, but this will not go away. 463 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,760 Speaker 2: He has opened the door to a relationship with his 464 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 2: daughter and his son. I think we haven't really heard 465 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 2: much about the sun, but he's opened that door. And 466 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: though you can't close it, he can't just you know, 467 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:03,800 Speaker 2: I mean, like you could try and back out, but 468 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 2: they're still they are aware of him. They'll probably go 469 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 2: to keep reaching out to him. If he stopped, yes 470 00:23:09,160 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 2: giving them money, they might harass it. Like, we don't 471 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 2: know what's gonna happen, but they're not gonna go away. 472 00:23:16,680 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 2: And so you have to kind of make a choice 473 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:23,560 Speaker 2: of do am I okay with that, because he's already 474 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 2: made his choice do it? 475 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,520 Speaker 1: But ladies and gentlemen, we haven't updated to this much 476 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 1: less cute saga. Okay, update number three. So it's been 477 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,840 Speaker 1: about a month now. We were going to counseling twice 478 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,440 Speaker 1: a week, and we were fighting one hundred times more 479 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: in the past couple of months than the rest of 480 00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 1: our thirteen years together. Combat yea, yeah. I was quite 481 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,879 Speaker 1: firm with him about not letting her move in with 482 00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: us and not sending cash. Stand your ground. I thought 483 00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 1: that we should help in other ways, like helping with 484 00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: baby supplies, tuition, and counseling. He's pretty adamant on getting 485 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: her close by. We finally agree that she and the 486 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 1: baby could come visit for a week. He wouldn't mention 487 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:05,359 Speaker 1: living together to her yet, it would be time to 488 00:24:05,400 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: get a feel of if it could work. He used 489 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:11,879 Speaker 1: a hole getting her apartment cleaned and painted as a reason. 490 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:16,879 Speaker 1: So pregnant, pregnant, so pregnant, her and the baby didn't 491 00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,679 Speaker 1: have to be around chemicals of paint fumes. Okay, that 492 00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: makes sense. Like take her away from the paint all right, Yeah, 493 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,439 Speaker 1: that made sense. She was reluctant and insisted she'd be fine, 494 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: but eventually agreed. The mother stayed with her boyfriend. The 495 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: flat was all set up for her. We borrowed his 496 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:35,359 Speaker 1: brother's old baby stuff and baby proofed the space. I 497 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,840 Speaker 1: made it a point to be open minded and not judgmental, 498 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,400 Speaker 1: because I know this girl has had a rough upbringing. 499 00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:43,760 Speaker 1: She arrived on the Saturday, a week before the one passed. 500 00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:46,240 Speaker 1: Husband picked her up from the airport. They came to 501 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: the main house first, husband carrying the baby and the suitcase. 502 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 1: She hardly mumbled a hi, hi when I greeted her, 503 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,280 Speaker 1: and it didn't even look at me. She was looking 504 00:24:57,400 --> 00:25:03,919 Speaker 1: all over the house with almost a sneer. Is that 505 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 1: another dog? 506 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 2: This whole story has just been about dogs. 507 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:13,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the dog imagine. We wake up and 508 00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:16,840 Speaker 1: the whole thing was a dream about dogs. 509 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,880 Speaker 2: I keep having dreams about bed bugs and it's frightening. 510 00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:21,720 Speaker 1: Oh you should stop that. 511 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,320 Speaker 2: I know it's scary. I keep waking on, like checking 512 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,560 Speaker 2: my bed. Someone was talking about bed bugs. 513 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,399 Speaker 1: Wait, but what happens in these dreams about bed bugs? 514 00:25:30,640 --> 00:25:32,680 Speaker 2: They like eat you alive. Even so there's just bed 515 00:25:32,680 --> 00:25:33,400 Speaker 2: bugs in my bed. 516 00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:36,240 Speaker 3: There's jest bugs in your bed. Yeah, and then you 517 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 3: like wake up and you're like, there's bugs in my bed. 518 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 519 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:42,680 Speaker 1: So now I was showing I was showing his daughter around, 520 00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:44,640 Speaker 1: and while in the kitchen, before I had a chance 521 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,320 Speaker 1: to offer something, she opens the fridge. I thought that 522 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:50,479 Speaker 1: was strange, but I let it go. She asked where's 523 00:25:50,520 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 1: the coke? And when I told her we didn't have any. 524 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:58,760 Speaker 1: She let out a huge sigh. So my husband told 525 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:01,240 Speaker 1: her he wanted to take her to stock the fridge 526 00:26:01,520 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 1: where she is staying, and she said that she was 527 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,199 Speaker 1: tired and she'll give him a list. After this, she 528 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 1: goes to the apartment to rest. Husband runs off to 529 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 1: get the list of junk food that she's given him. 530 00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 1: He gets to come for dinner hours later. I made 531 00:26:15,040 --> 00:26:17,040 Speaker 1: dinner for us at night. I didn't cook like I 532 00:26:17,080 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: would for my husband and myself because we typically eat 533 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: very healthy and I know it's not gonna be everyone's tastes. 534 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,400 Speaker 1: I figure you can't go wrong with meat and three 535 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:29,000 Speaker 1: veg I was wrong. She looked at the food like 536 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 1: I had put roadkill on the table. After much prying 537 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 1: about what she prefers, there was a lot of doesn't 538 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 1: matter and whatevers. She listed off things like Maka's macus 539 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:41,400 Speaker 1: like McDonald. 540 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:48,159 Speaker 3: Ah, that is an Australian thing, shout out, Sonny, shout 541 00:26:48,160 --> 00:26:52,919 Speaker 3: out like maccus, sausage rolls, pies, fish and chips, only 542 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 3: only to go Food's husband. 543 00:26:55,320 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 1: Offered to get her something, which she accepted. As soon 544 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: as he left, she said she was going back to 545 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: her space. I was okay with this. The rest of 546 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,720 Speaker 1: the week was mostly her being in the apartment. Here 547 00:27:06,760 --> 00:27:09,800 Speaker 1: are some things that happened. I'm trying my best with 548 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 1: just the list to just list the facts unbiased, but 549 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: it probably won't come out that way. We've been forewarned. 550 00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 1: Here we go screaming baby most nights, so Topie's point, 551 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 1: the baby can be heard through the walls. A husband 552 00:27:23,840 --> 00:27:25,919 Speaker 1: went once to see if he could help, and she 553 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: had headphones on, laying on bed and baby was on 554 00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 1: the crib with a spoiled diaper. Oh. On two occasions, 555 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: the motion lights went on, so I looked outside. A 556 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:40,359 Speaker 1: guy went up to her flat. How does she know 557 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: anyone here? It wasn't the same guy two times, so 558 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: she had two strange men. Men go into the apartment. 559 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 1: Oh no, they're doing something. Oh no, husband gets to 560 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 1: go for her every meal. I tried again to make 561 00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: something she liked, fried chicken and chips. Uh. She ate it, 562 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,119 Speaker 1: but said KFC was better. 563 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: Stop like just letting her have whatever she wants. She's 564 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,400 Speaker 2: living in your house. Yeah, Like, okay, if you want 565 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,640 Speaker 2: to buy yourself, but this is what we're eating tonight. Yeah, 566 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 2: you can buy yourself something else, but. 567 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 1: By cook for you and you tell me straight up KF, 568 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: she's better. 569 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,639 Speaker 3: It's the last night you spend in my house or 570 00:28:22,680 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 3: the last night I spend in your presence. 571 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:28,240 Speaker 1: This is true. This is true. Husband sat down with 572 00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:30,199 Speaker 1: her to have a serious talk about her future and 573 00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 1: how he'd help her with schooling and work. She laughed 574 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: and said a A I'm a mother, that that is 575 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:40,800 Speaker 1: a job, and school isn't gonna help me do that. 576 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: She firmly believes that she has no duty to make 577 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: a living to support her family, that it's perfectly acceptable 578 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: to live off the dole, which I think is live 579 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 1: off the government support. I believe she didn't clean up 580 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 1: after herself at all. When he went to check on her, 581 00:28:56,120 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 1: food containers were everywhere and its stank of baby poo icky. 582 00:29:01,680 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: She turned down every attempt to go out and do anything. 583 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: It was her first time in the city that people 584 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,680 Speaker 1: come all over the world to see Sydney not as 585 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:14,920 Speaker 1: good as Brisbane. I'm just guessing, I al Melbourn, Bet Melbourn. 586 00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:19,280 Speaker 1: She left a hamper of dirty clothes outside my front door. 587 00:29:19,400 --> 00:29:22,080 Speaker 1: The only thing she didn't have in her flat was laundry. 588 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 1: I didn't think she need she'd need it for a week, 589 00:29:24,440 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 1: but she could have asked to use it. I put 590 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 1: them back in front of her door, unwashed, never heard 591 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:33,960 Speaker 1: more about it. Refused meeting husband's family, so her grandparents, uncle, 592 00:29:34,040 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 1: Aun's cousins. They were really keen to meet her and 593 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:40,400 Speaker 1: the baby. She insulted me twice about my lifestyle in 594 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:44,440 Speaker 1: the very limited interactions we had, along with a snide 595 00:29:44,560 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: remark and not understanding things. Because I'm not a mother, 596 00:29:48,760 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: you would get it. Yeah, I found there's more. There's 597 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,479 Speaker 1: more points. I found husband crying one night after bringing 598 00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:01,880 Speaker 1: her food. Well, well, she went home this past weekend. 599 00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,160 Speaker 1: That's the end of our list. Who so now the 600 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 1: highlight reel of the week is over. The week is over. Oh, 601 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 1: we're back. She knows there's an open offer to help 602 00:30:13,960 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 1: her get her life on track with schooling, counseling, finding work, 603 00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: et cetera. She doesn't want any of it. He was 604 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: most pushing for counseling, hoping that the rest will follow. 605 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 1: She thinks it's absolutely ridiculous and won't consider it. She 606 00:30:28,760 --> 00:30:31,719 Speaker 1: definitely won't be living with us. I'm really happy we 607 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: did this, at least because we're of one mind about 608 00:30:34,360 --> 00:30:36,240 Speaker 1: her now. So now the husband is also like, okay, 609 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,719 Speaker 1: she can't live with us. Yeah, thank god, Hey it's Sam. 610 00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:40,520 Speaker 1: We're gonna get back to these stories.

He told her to contact him if 614 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:50,720 Speaker 1: she needs anything, but that he's not going to send cash. 615 00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:53,200 Speaker 1: He will order the things online she needs and send 616 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,280 Speaker 1: it to her. He had a great time cleaning up 617 00:30:55,280 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 1: the flat a week's worth of Dirney diapers. We've had 618 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 1: a good week.

But we have 692 00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:08,440 Speaker 1: wood most story. We have one more story. 693 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:12,680 Speaker 2: My friend confessed her attraction to a married man. It's 694 00:35:12,760 --> 00:35:13,400 Speaker 2: my husband. 695 00:35:13,719 --> 00:35:14,800 Speaker 1: Oh oh, divorce. 696 00:35:14,960 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 2: You can't have that one. 697 00:35:16,520 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: I was at a. 698 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:20,960 Speaker 2: Dinner outing with friends. My friend Mary is very attractive 699 00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 2: and kept getting hit on. She usually can have any 700 00:35:24,520 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 2: man she wants. She shows a lot of cleavage and 701 00:35:27,480 --> 00:35:30,440 Speaker 2: has big front airbags. This is nothing new for her, 702 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,640 Speaker 2: but we're all kind of jealous of her. By the 703 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:34,960 Speaker 2: way this comes from, she wants my husband and if 704 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:36,400 Speaker 2: you want to smit your own stories, go to the 705 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,080 Speaker 2: r slash Okay, storytime, separate it. So I met her 706 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 2: after I married my husband through her sister, who I 707 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,920 Speaker 2: knew in college. This is not a small town by 708 00:35:45,920 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 2: any means. We live in a big city with population 709 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 2: in the millions. But I guess it's a small world. 710 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:55,279 Speaker 2: After all, My husband also attended the same college and 711 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 2: we met through friends there, so it's not shocking that 712 00:35:58,040 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 2: he knows Mary. Mary and I are kind of close 713 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 2: friends now. So we had drinks and Mary was pretty wasted, 714 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,399 Speaker 2: so were the rest of us. I suppose all these 715 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,360 Speaker 2: hot guys kept hitting on her all night. Uh oh, 716 00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,440 Speaker 2: so when Mary shrugged it off and said, it's just 717 00:36:13,480 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 2: the cleavage tonight. Oh, but she was being modest. She 718 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:19,800 Speaker 2: gets hit on when she's all covered up too. Anyway, 719 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 2: her front airbags became a topic and one of the 720 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 2: girls asked Mary if she had ever let anybody titty 721 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: f her. She said she loves her front airbags, and 722 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 2: although she was saving that for the her eventual husband. 723 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,319 Speaker 2: She did let one guy just to her because she 724 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 2: was way too into him. She's like, I'm saving that 725 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 2: for marriage. But I did, Yes, I did. We asked 726 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 2: her what happened and she said She proceeded to give 727 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:52,240 Speaker 2: us detail. It was crazy, spicy related experimentation and weekend 728 00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:57,200 Speaker 2: hotel rooms, but she said he's married now and wants 729 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:58,319 Speaker 2: nothing to do with her. 730 00:36:58,640 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 1: Oop. 731 00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:00,880 Speaker 2: She said she would have made I'm in a heartbeat, 732 00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:04,120 Speaker 2: but he would not commit for her. Then she added 733 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:07,120 Speaker 2: that she had made advances, but he doesn't bite. We 734 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:09,800 Speaker 2: all started teasing her about going after a married guy, 735 00:37:09,840 --> 00:37:11,759 Speaker 2: but we were all wasted, so it wasn't over the 736 00:37:11,800 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 2: top and we didn't lecture her. She also said that, 737 00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 2: judging by her interactions with him, sometimes she thinks he's 738 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 2: gonna cave and take her to a hotel again, and 739 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:22,959 Speaker 2: f her brain that she was serious a buff. 740 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:23,960 Speaker 1: Oh No. 741 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 2: One of the other girls got really quiet and kept 742 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:30,240 Speaker 2: staring at me. Later, she told me Mary was talking 743 00:37:30,280 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 2: about my husband. 744 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:35,959 Speaker 1: Oh we knew that, but it's so crazy. Yeah yoay, 745 00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 1: oh my gosh. 746 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:40,399 Speaker 2: I was livid, but she wouldn't let me betray her 747 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 2: trust and confront Mary. I asked her to call Mary 748 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 2: on speaker and ask her. She asked her, in a 749 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 2: joking way, what possessed her to talk about wanting to 750 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 2: f my husband when I was sitting right there. Mary 751 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,400 Speaker 2: laughed and said it was just the booth. I asked 752 00:37:56,400 --> 00:37:58,239 Speaker 2: my husband about Mary, and he said they had a 753 00:37:58,280 --> 00:38:01,600 Speaker 2: short fling that didn't last, but Mary described it as 754 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,840 Speaker 2: having gone on for over two years. I didn't know 755 00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:07,120 Speaker 2: my husband in that timeframe, and he didn't know I 756 00:38:07,200 --> 00:38:10,040 Speaker 2: was friends with Mary's sister until shortly before our wedding, 757 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 2: when I invited her to a pre wedding dinner. 758 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 1: Okay, So, and just to be clear, from both of 759 00:38:15,520 --> 00:38:18,760 Speaker 1: their stories, it looks like their interactions were totally outside 760 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:22,840 Speaker 1: of OPI in his relationship. Yes, okay, noted. 761 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 2: I didn't meet Mary until around the same time. I 762 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: asked him if Mary has ever made advances or flirted, 763 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,279 Speaker 2: and to flat out deny any of this, he said, 764 00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:35,520 Speaker 2: she keeps a respectful distance. Now, I'm angry that my 765 00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,680 Speaker 2: husband didn't tell me he slept with Mary right when 766 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 2: I met her, but truthfully, I would have been angry 767 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 2: anyway because I'm kind of jealous of her. I also 768 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 2: don't know why she says it went on for so long, 769 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 2: and he described it as brief, like over a few weeks. 770 00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:52,319 Speaker 2: Mary insisted that night that she flirts with him and 771 00:38:52,360 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 2: has practically thrown herself at him, but that he hasn't bitten. 772 00:38:56,560 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 2: She also said she thinks it's a matter of time. 773 00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,240 Speaker 2: I didn't ask for details because we were all wasted 774 00:39:01,239 --> 00:39:03,280 Speaker 2: and I didn't know she was referring to my husband. 775 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,360 Speaker 2: I'm not sure how to handle this because my husband 776 00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:10,040 Speaker 2: insists he doesn't know what she's talking about. Now two 777 00:39:10,120 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 2: of my friends know, and they're telling me it was 778 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:14,880 Speaker 2: all wasted talk and Mary was just talking out of 779 00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:17,239 Speaker 2: her butt. That I should just believe my husband and 780 00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,600 Speaker 2: leave it alone. Mary comes to my house for gatherings 781 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:22,680 Speaker 2: all the time because we're actually close friends. 782 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:22,879 Speaker 3: Now. 783 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:25,720 Speaker 2: She also runs into my husband at the gym often 784 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 2: because they both work out with similar schedules. Oh, I'm 785 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:32,400 Speaker 2: not sure how much to ask my husband. Can I 786 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,320 Speaker 2: ask him to change gyms? Why is there such a 787 00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:38,399 Speaker 2: disconnect between what she remembers and what he described because 788 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 2: one of them is lying. This is driving me crazy 789 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: to another level. Could I have sat down with her 790 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:48,240 Speaker 2: and ask her what all happened? And there is an update. 791 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 2: But John, yes, what do you think? 792 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:55,879 Speaker 1: Listen?

I 836 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,239 Speaker 2: understand some of this, like haircuts, but he never goes 837 00:41:55,280 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 2: to a variety of places unless I practically force him 838 00:41:58,040 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 2: to the problem is that there happens to be girls 839 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:03,359 Speaker 2: behind the counter. If there happens to be girls behind 840 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:05,919 Speaker 2: the counter, they get the wrong idea that he's there 841 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,440 Speaker 2: to see them, and he's sad. Girls give him their 842 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 2: number or email even oh he oh, even though he 843 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:13,000 Speaker 2: wears a wedding band. 844 00:42:13,080 --> 00:42:14,919 Speaker 1: Yeah. I was like wondering. I was like, I mean, yeah, 845 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:17,399 Speaker 1: he like likes getting the same coffee, but like, I mean, 846 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,560 Speaker 1: that's not our crime. But it's like, oh, he goes 847 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:22,400 Speaker 1: to the same likes the same. Oh God. 848 00:42:24,120 --> 00:42:26,080 Speaker 2: The other day I walked into a coffee shot with 849 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:29,520 Speaker 2: him and the girl said high honeyboot him. Then she 850 00:42:29,560 --> 00:42:31,840 Speaker 2: complained that he had not been there in three weeks. 851 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 2: He's not like a model, but we live in a 852 00:42:33,800 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 2: big city where a lot of modeling agencies are headquartered. 853 00:42:36,640 --> 00:42:39,560 Speaker 2: And he looks better than models, I think, and many 854 00:42:39,560 --> 00:42:42,279 Speaker 2: women are great huh. He has the prettiest eyes, and 855 00:42:42,320 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 2: he's fit, but he doesn't know how to do his 856 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:45,719 Speaker 2: hair and looks like a nerd most of the time. 857 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,840 Speaker 2: But it works for his career and it works for me. 858 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 6: Dude, that sounds like Sam He's like, he doesn't know 859 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 6: what to do with his hair most of time, but 860 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,160 Speaker 6: he looks better than most models, Am I right? 861 00:42:56,400 --> 00:42:56,960 Speaker 1: So funny? 862 00:42:57,680 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 2: Nice of you. Yeah, he's also too nice and women 863 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:02,960 Speaker 2: take this the wrong way. I'm working on getting him 864 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,520 Speaker 2: to be more of an ale to people. Yaykay, just 865 00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,680 Speaker 2: want him to be less nice without being a clown. 866 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,319 Speaker 2: Now to the issue at hand, I asked him about 867 00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:15,320 Speaker 2: the discrepancy in timeline between him and Mary. He admitted 868 00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:18,399 Speaker 2: that it lasted months and probably more than a year. 869 00:43:20,640 --> 00:43:23,240 Speaker 1: Wait, I'll read that again. 870 00:43:23,400 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 2: He admitted that it lasted months and probably. 871 00:43:26,320 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 1: More than a year. That is more than months. That 872 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:31,040 Speaker 1: is more than a year. My friend. 873 00:43:31,120 --> 00:43:34,600 Speaker 2: He was like, I admit it lasted months, well, which 874 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:37,640 Speaker 2: was probably more like a year. But if we're thinking truthfully, 875 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:38,720 Speaker 2: it was probably two years. 876 00:43:38,800 --> 00:43:41,080 Speaker 4: Anywhere from like three months to thirteen months. 877 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:41,719 Speaker 6: I don't even know. 878 00:43:41,840 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 1: Any did he say the timeline initially? 879 00:43:44,800 --> 00:43:49,719 Speaker 2: No, he said weeks or he implied weeks, oh, but 880 00:43:49,840 --> 00:43:52,880 Speaker 2: that he remembers it all going by so quickly, but 881 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 2: he never thinks about it. So when I asked him 882 00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:57,399 Speaker 2: about it, he didn't think it was important. He doesn't 883 00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:00,560 Speaker 2: see his time with her as emotionally significant. Also says 884 00:44:00,560 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 2: he runs into her at the gym a lot, but 885 00:44:02,120 --> 00:44:04,759 Speaker 2: that he doesn't talk to her. Sometimes she walks up 886 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: and will point out that's some sloot is checking him out. 887 00:44:07,480 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 2: She calls all women that look his direction suos. I 888 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,600 Speaker 2: asked him if he would change gym's and the look 889 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:16,680 Speaker 2: on his face was worrisome. I don't think he wants to, 890 00:44:16,800 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 2: but he said he would if I really wanted to. 891 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:21,919 Speaker 2: I'm afraid my jealousy is going to push him too far. 892 00:44:22,800 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 2: I confronted Mary, and she apologized and said that she 893 00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 2: still has feelings for him. 894 00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 1: Oh, no, shocking, This is not good. 895 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:35,640 Speaker 6: Also, the girls are twenty five and the husband is 896 00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 6: thirty one. 897 00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 2: Okay, No, she shocked me by telling me why we 898 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:41,839 Speaker 2: shouldn't be friends, and she wants to stay away from 899 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 2: me and my husband because she'll never get over her 900 00:44:43,360 --> 00:44:46,719 Speaker 2: as long a spur in her life. Let's honestly, that's fair. 901 00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:49,280 Speaker 2: She yeah, she knows herself. 902 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,840 Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, and she I mean she was honest. Yeah, 903 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:54,680 Speaker 1: you know, so I'll give her that. 904 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:57,520 Speaker 2: She actually requested a transfer to the East Coast and 905 00:44:57,560 --> 00:44:59,560 Speaker 2: it was granted at her work. She'll be gone for 906 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:06,360 Speaker 2: three years. That was easy loud. That was incredibly easy. 907 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 2: Op went, Hey, that wasn't cool, and she said, you're right, 908 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:11,880 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I'm not over him and I'm leaving for 909 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 2: three years. 910 00:45:13,840 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 1: All right. How was the quickest like snap transition I've 911 00:45:19,080 --> 00:45:19,960 Speaker 1: ever seen in the show? 912 00:45:20,040 --> 00:45:20,600 Speaker 2: Insane? 913 00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,600 Speaker 1: Hey, it's John here. We're gonna get back to the stories. 914 00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 1: Put a quick three minute ad break from our sponsors 915 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: that keep the show going. 916 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:28,120 Speaker 2: It was pretty friendly and she was respectful. He's not 917 00:45:28,200 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 2: leaving until late January twenty sixteen. Just one problem with 918 00:45:31,680 --> 00:45:34,680 Speaker 2: my conversation with Mary. I asked her for some details, 919 00:45:34,719 --> 00:45:37,279 Speaker 2: and this was a mistake. She asked me if I 920 00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,840 Speaker 2: was sure, and I said yes. She met him because 921 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 2: he was involved with a friend of hers. This girl 922 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,200 Speaker 2: was a spicy dancer in a very upscale place that's 923 00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 2: known around here. The spicy dancer brought in Mary for 924 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 2: a mono chatoin with my husband. This became a regular 925 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 2: practice until Mary developed feelings for him and stole them 926 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:59,680 Speaker 2: away from spicy dancer girl. Details about the spicy sleep 927 00:45:59,719 --> 00:46:03,439 Speaker 2: stuff was worse than I thought sy. I also could 928 00:46:03,480 --> 00:46:06,439 Speaker 2: tell Mary was getting satisfaction out of telling me all 929 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:09,719 Speaker 2: the details. I could tell she knew she had this 930 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:12,600 Speaker 2: over me. I was like a willing hostage because I 931 00:46:12,640 --> 00:46:15,879 Speaker 2: didn't walk away from this conversation and she knew this, 932 00:46:16,200 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 2: so she took full advantage under the guise of honesty. 933 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:23,160 Speaker 2: This made me feel worse and more inadequate. I always 934 00:46:23,200 --> 00:46:25,480 Speaker 2: thought we had a great, spicy sleep life, but now 935 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,800 Speaker 2: I think it's only great for me. All this time, 936 00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 2: I asked my husband about all the spicy sleep stuff 937 00:46:32,040 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 2: and he confirmed. I was annoyed and asked him why 938 00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 2: he never told me about this stuff and why he 939 00:46:37,239 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 2: never told me about his history with Mary. He said 940 00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:42,840 Speaker 2: he was afraid of telling me about Mary. He didn't 941 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 2: think I'd take it well. He also said if Mary 942 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:47,600 Speaker 2: had been inappropriate with him, he would have immediately sat 943 00:46:47,640 --> 00:46:50,200 Speaker 2: me down and told me. But I'm afraid he doesn't 944 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:54,480 Speaker 2: know what inappropriate is. But you know it is appropriate. 945 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:57,840 Speaker 2: What is that, Sophia listening to full episodes of stories 946 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 2: just like this?

It seems like husband should 951 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:20,799 Speaker 1: have told earth, because they're so involved with each other. 952 00:47:21,000 --> 00:47:23,440 Speaker 2: If it had been if Mary had been some person 953 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 2: that he never saw again, Yeah, don't necessarily need to 954 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 2: talk about that. 955 00:47:28,080 --> 00:47:30,840 Speaker 1: It was also the details explicitly, it's like, okay, you 956 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:33,239 Speaker 1: don't have to Yeah, it doesn't mean you have to 957 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,719 Speaker 1: list out like, Okay, here's every past part and all 958 00:47:35,800 --> 00:47:36,200 Speaker 1: the things. 959 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:40,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Mary is a person who's actively in your life. Yes, 960 00:47:41,000 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 2: that is something you need to disclose. Indeed, but that's 961 00:47:47,239 --> 00:47:49,040 Speaker 2: it that we're going to get into the last of 962 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 2: this story. 963 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:50,080 Speaker 1: Let's do it. 964 00:47:50,360 --> 00:47:52,520 Speaker 2: I also asked him why he never told me he 965 00:47:52,600 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 2: was into all that stuff, the spicy sleep stuff you 966 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 2: did with Mary. I told him that I felt spicy 967 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 2: to sleep with me was boring for him. He said 968 00:47:59,719 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 2: he thinks spicy sleep is great with me. When he 969 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,319 Speaker 2: talked about what Mary said about the things they did 970 00:48:04,360 --> 00:48:07,319 Speaker 2: with a spicy dancer and later alone with Mary, he 971 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:09,239 Speaker 2: said that he never set out to do any of that. 972 00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:12,040 Speaker 2: He said it was stuff that happened as opposed to 973 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:14,320 Speaker 2: stuff he went out to do. Not sure what the 974 00:48:14,320 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 2: difference is, and it's not much consolation right now. My 975 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:20,120 Speaker 2: other friends didn't know and don't know two of my 976 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,520 Speaker 2: friends know about Mary, and my husband the one who 977 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:25,560 Speaker 2: gave me the heads up, and Mary's sister. Mary's sister 978 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:28,360 Speaker 2: is married now too, so she kind of takes my side, 979 00:48:28,680 --> 00:48:31,280 Speaker 2: though she loves her sister and his beast friends with her. 980 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 2: Not much you can do then, Yeah, but that is 981 00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,239 Speaker 2: the end of that story and the end of this episode. 982 00:48:40,640 --> 00:48:41,160 Speaker 1: Wow. 983 00:48:41,320 --> 00:48:44,600 Speaker 2: Wow.
