1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: I asked my fiance to limit interactions with his female colleague. 2 00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 2: He refused, Ah, what a cool guy. 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:10,959 Speaker 1: I am female twenty five and have been dating my fiance, 4 00:00:11,160 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: male twenty six for two years now. We have always 5 00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 1: been very happy together and got engaged this summer and 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:19,000 Speaker 1: are very excited to get married and start a family. 7 00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:22,000 Speaker 1: By the way, this comes from user bog boy f 8 00:00:22,079 --> 00:00:26,079 Speaker 1: problems on the r slash Okay storytime. So, however, we've 9 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: recently gotten into a major argument over his interactions with 10 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: his colleague and he's currently sleeping on the couch over it. 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:35,479 Speaker 1: A little bit of a background. In college, my fiance 12 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:38,480 Speaker 1: was involved with the girl now twenty four he'd met 13 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 1: online and then started hooking up with. I only know 14 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,440 Speaker 1: this stuff because we've had a couple of conversations about 15 00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:48,239 Speaker 1: each other's first so she came up. My fiance was 16 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: the stereotypical frat boy womanizer in college. From what I've heard, 17 00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,959 Speaker 1: she was more academically inclined and they didn't have much 18 00:00:56,000 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 1: in common. He apparently took her virginity her freshman year, 19 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,480 Speaker 1: and then they hooked up a few more times in 20 00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 1: the next year, and she took his butt virginity. She 21 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: seemed to want more and cut him off a few 22 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,480 Speaker 1: times that year, but always came back, and then worked 23 00:01:11,520 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: near each other the summer after he graduated, and they 24 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: slept together a lot. After they lost touch, but kept 25 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: following each other on Instagram. I made him unfollow when 26 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,600 Speaker 1: we got serious. Obviously, it didn't bother me to know 27 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,560 Speaker 1: what he had, that he had a life before me. 28 00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: She did bother me a little, though, because he usually 29 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:34,040 Speaker 1: trash talks his exes, but spoke pretty positively of her 30 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: and said things like that she cared about more than 31 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: just her looks, and he had more depth, or she 32 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: had more depth, and other bs like that, and that 33 00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:44,560 Speaker 1: she had a great body and was in great bed. 34 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,520 Speaker 1: Is the past and they weren't in contact, that is 35 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: until my fiance got a new job a couple of 36 00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 1: months ago. He's in finance and got a job for 37 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: a quantum trading type of company and is on a 38 00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:58,200 Speaker 1: team that is partially made up of computer scientists, and 39 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 1: she is one of them. He told me right away, 40 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,440 Speaker 1: so I knew he was being transparent and wasn't too worried. However, 41 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 1: he's been working very closely with her as she's been 42 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,160 Speaker 1: helping him get up to speed on some computer stuff. 43 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: His team also does a lot of team building type 44 00:02:13,560 --> 00:02:16,080 Speaker 1: of stuff like happy hours, and so they end up 45 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:19,440 Speaker 1: spending a lot of time together, which wouldn't necessarily bother me, 46 00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: but he started becoming actual friends with her and mentioning 47 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: her more and more, always in complimentary ways. I was 48 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,840 Speaker 1: a little miffed, but still not worried, because I have 49 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 1: seen pictures of her and she's not really incredibly conventionally 50 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: attractive and isn't really my fiance's type. I don't really 51 00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:42,440 Speaker 1: trust her considering how she acted with him in the past, 52 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 1: but from her social media she seemed to be pretty 53 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,519 Speaker 1: low key and not really do much or be very 54 00:02:48,520 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 1: well liked. Yesterday, the team was going to happy hour 55 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,799 Speaker 1: and my fiance invited me for the first time, and 56 00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:58,000 Speaker 1: of course she was there. Did you imagine, like, your 57 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: fiance took my virginity, but I took his behind, but 58 00:03:02,040 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: I took his second virginy, I took him second virginity, 59 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: the number two virginity. 60 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, so weird. Can you imagine her bringing that up unprompted, 61 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 2: like that's I'm really amazing, that's so weird. Oh my god, yeah. 62 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: Meeting her in seeing her and my fiance interact really 63 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:23,200 Speaker 1: changed my mind. First off, she was in person way 64 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,000 Speaker 1: more attractive than her than on her social media. Not 65 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: exactly pretty, but very cute adamittently with a great body. 66 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: She was also clearly really well liked by everyone on 67 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: her team, all men. She made a lot of jokes 68 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:38,360 Speaker 1: they all laughed at and always had something to say. 69 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: Her and my fiance also clearly had some inside jokes 70 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: and were having a blast together. Oh there were some. 71 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: There's some inside jokes. None of it was exactly inappropriate, 72 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: but it did make me feel like crap to watch 73 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 1: my fiance so happy to hang out with another woman. 74 00:03:52,960 --> 00:03:55,560 Speaker 1: He also ordered her a couple of drinks and she 75 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,680 Speaker 1: didn't even ask. All she had to do was look 76 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:59,880 Speaker 1: at him and then at the bar, and he knew 77 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,000 Speaker 1: what to do and her order and everything. She also 78 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: hadn't brought anyone, so I assume she's single. When we 79 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: got home, I told my fiance in no unequipical terms 80 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,040 Speaker 1: that he had to limit his contact with her because 81 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:17,080 Speaker 1: it made me feel very uncomfortable. He basically just said no, 82 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: and that she was his colleague and that he would 83 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,279 Speaker 1: get fired. If he had stopped interacting with her just 84 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,640 Speaker 1: because his fiance was jealous. He also said that they've 85 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: never spent time one on one and that he was 86 00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: just doing what he needed to do for work. The 87 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,440 Speaker 1: fight escalated from there and we now aren't talking, which 88 00:04:35,480 --> 00:04:38,400 Speaker 1: is really great considering he went to work with her 89 00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:42,159 Speaker 1: today and then they all went to another happy hour tonight. 90 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,600 Speaker 2: Wait, was Opie asking him to like completely shut her 91 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,560 Speaker 2: out of work, because it's like, you gotta understand if 92 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 2: he's going to work. It's like Opie just asked to 93 00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:53,479 Speaker 2: limit his contact with her because it okay, okay. I 94 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,200 Speaker 2: just wanted to make sure because it sounded like the 95 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:57,159 Speaker 2: way that she phrased that like that she had said 96 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 2: that they can't work together. 97 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,479 Speaker 1: You don't have to go to happy hour every night. 98 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 2: It's true. 99 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 1: Yeah, you don't have a happy hour. You can you 100 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: can go have happy hour with your partner. It's not 101 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: your work team. You can go out to dinner with 102 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,039 Speaker 1: your partner. I mean, yes, it's not mandatory you go 103 00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: to happy hour with your ex, with your ex that 104 00:05:12,360 --> 00:05:15,440 Speaker 1: you constantly talked up you have. It seems like you 105 00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:17,159 Speaker 1: want to go to happy hour to hang out with 106 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: your ed mm hmm. 107 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, sorry, Op, this is a real bad situation. 108 00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:23,080 Speaker 1: He still isn't back, and I'm not sure if he'll 109 00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 1: be back tonight. He's being very resistant and it's making 110 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 1: me wonder if I was wrong. So was I the 111 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: a hole or am I just being reasonable in protecting 112 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: my relationship? There is an update, but let's just talk. 113 00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:36,640 Speaker 2: No, I think you were being reasonable. I think that 114 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:39,200 Speaker 2: there could be a reality in which you guys have 115 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,920 Speaker 2: a conversation and you come to the conclusion that, like 116 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 2: what happened between them is in the past, and maybe 117 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,920 Speaker 2: you can be comfortable with it with them having a friendship. 118 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 2: But the fact that your partner's not giving you the 119 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 2: space to even have that conversation, I think speaks for itself. 120 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,920 Speaker 1: The fact that he's making excuses and it's like, it's 121 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 1: this is work, this is work. I have to go 122 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: to happy hour every night and be with her and 123 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: like be giddy giddy with her and. 124 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 2: You know, psychically communicating with her. Like it's a little 125 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 2: too close for comfort. After everything that's been said, you don't. 126 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:11,680 Speaker 1: Have to go. Just if she's part of the team, 127 00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: that's fine, I get it. And you have team meetings 128 00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 1: and team workplaces and team exercises. I get it, but 129 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:18,719 Speaker 1: you don't have to be like just like this every time. 130 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:22,320 Speaker 1: So and the fact that he just came out blatantly no, just. 131 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,440 Speaker 2: No, no, no, that all combined and then with him 132 00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: not putting her on top is number one, like very clearly. 133 00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,320 Speaker 2: I think if he had different energy about that, this 134 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:33,760 Speaker 2: could also be a very different conversation if it was 135 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,479 Speaker 2: just so clear that like, she's the top of the 136 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: mountain and this girl's old news. Yeah, and that's all 137 00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: it is. Yeah, like you can you definitely. 138 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 1: Can be like friends and you know, friendly, but yeah, 139 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,679 Speaker 1: not that friendly and not that close. 140 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:47,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't sound like op he's getting anywhere near 141 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 2: the respect that she No. 142 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:50,640 Speaker 1: No, no. And the thing is Opie was at the 143 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: very beginning was like very mature and like, oh, yeah, 144 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: the past is the past and whatever. Then she saw 145 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 1: how they interacted and was like, oh, this is what's 146 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: going on as the past don't look like it's in 147 00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 1: the pace, looks like it is the press. 148 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 2: Did I take a time machine because I'm pretty sure 149 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:04,200 Speaker 2: this is today? Yeah? 150 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 1: Am I am I your ex? Or is she your X? 151 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 2: I don't know, I'm please let me know we have 152 00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 2: an update. 153 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:10,840 Speaker 1: I got a lot of good advice and opinions on 154 00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 1: my original post, so I thought I would update. I 155 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 1: made the post Friday night, and right after I also 156 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 1: talked to a couple of my friends and to my 157 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,120 Speaker 1: mom about the situation. My conversations with them, plus the 158 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: comments here, made me realize that yes, I had been 159 00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: acting out of jealousy and that I hadn't communicated with 160 00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 1: my fiance well, but that I was justified in feeling 161 00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: uncomfortable with the situation and that I wasn't all right 162 00:07:32,920 --> 00:07:36,080 Speaker 1: with it. Continuing, when I posted, my fiance was out 163 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: at happy hour again with his team and his ex. 164 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 1: I decided that when he got home I would try 165 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 1: to have a more constructive conversation with him. He texted 166 00:07:44,280 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: me soon after I posted and said he'd be home 167 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: soon and would pick up dinner. He also said in 168 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 1: a snide way that I didn't need to worry and 169 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: that the coworker hadn't gone with them. When he got home, 170 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 1: we spoke much more calmly, and I apologized for the 171 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: ultimatum but expressed that I really wasn't comfortable with the situation. 172 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 1: It was actually very constructive and we agreed that we 173 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: would limit his interactions with her, would stop ordering her drinks, 174 00:08:08,960 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: and would try to go more often to team building 175 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:13,960 Speaker 1: stuff that she was skipping and less often to the 176 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: ones that she was going to. He also apologized, but 177 00:08:17,200 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: was adamant that he felt nothing for her beyond professional respect. 178 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:23,160 Speaker 1: That's I mean, and that's fair, That's what I was saying. 179 00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 2: It's like, in a different way, it sounds like this context, 180 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 2: it's like y'all are having a conversation that's actually getting somewhere, 181 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 2: and y'all are finding common ground. 182 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: And yeah, he's a sort of peace in this situation. 183 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 1: His understanding. He was like, Okay, wait, this is reasonably sound. 184 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:37,679 Speaker 1: It makes sense. 185 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 2: Well, it's the fact that he was like completely disregarding 186 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 2: the feelings. Yeah. But then op also admitted like she 187 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: didn't really communicate as effectively as she could have what 188 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:47,240 Speaker 2: she was going through. 189 00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: So yeah, but communication, Yeah, it's good. Communication is key 190 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:57,160 Speaker 1: key on, he's key on. I was really glad we 191 00:08:57,280 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: figured it out, but yesterday everything really went downhill. His 192 00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: friends who went to college with both of them were 193 00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:05,440 Speaker 1: visiting us. We spent the day with them and a 194 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: bunch of our friends who live in our city, including 195 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 1: my best friend. We ended up going on a bar 196 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,440 Speaker 1: crawl after dinner. We all got really crunky, especially my 197 00:09:13,480 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: fiance and his friends, and ended up at this popular 198 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 1: club slash bar place. When we walked in, we walked 199 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,959 Speaker 1: past the coworker who was with a group of her friends, 200 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: so the ex which wasn't that surprising. It was a 201 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: Saturday night and it's a popular spot for our demographic. 202 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 1: After we walked by, a few of my fiance's college 203 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 1: friends noticed and said a bunch of stuff to him. 204 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:36,679 Speaker 1: They were basically acting like college fratros, hitting my fiance's 205 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:40,520 Speaker 1: shoulders and saying she looked good she admittedly did, and 206 00:09:40,559 --> 00:09:42,800 Speaker 1: that they hadn't seen her in a while, and making 207 00:09:42,880 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: jokes about her. My fiance was basically ignoring them and 208 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 1: told them to cool it. I wanted to leave, but 209 00:09:48,400 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: we'd just gotten there and it's a nice spot, so 210 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:53,839 Speaker 1: everyone wanted to stay. The coworker seemed like she was 211 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: just having a good time and also seemed really crunky 212 00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: and didn't notice us. We got some drinks. My fiance 213 00:09:59,800 --> 00:10:02,200 Speaker 1: and his friends kept glancing at the colleague, and I 214 00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: think she noticed and laughed at them. I felt sick 215 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: to my stomach and the alcohol definitely didn't help, and 216 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 1: I went to the bathroom with one of my friends. 217 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: My best friends stayed with the others, which is how 218 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: I know what happened. My fiance's college friends started talking 219 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:18,680 Speaker 1: about her immediately after I left, saying that she looked 220 00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: great and they knew she was a good time and 221 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: stuff like that. My fiance kind of brushed them off. 222 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 1: Then one of his friends decided to go up to her. 223 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 2: It sounds like he's been reacting the right way so far. 224 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 2: He's he's trying to like, guys, stop, guys, stop, come on. 225 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,679 Speaker 1: Yeah, we were having a good time. We don't need 226 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: this right now. He bought her a drink and talked 227 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: to her for a little bit, but she just kind 228 00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: of laughed at him and kept talking to her friends. 229 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,439 Speaker 1: He came back to the group and said that apparently 230 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:46,200 Speaker 1: she said something like, you know, uh, fiance's name, you 231 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,959 Speaker 1: know fiance's name, and it is the only their frat 232 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 1: brother for me, after which he went to say hello 233 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: to her and they talked for a little bit. According 234 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: to my best friend, they seemed to be laughing and 235 00:10:57,720 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: having a good time. When I came out of the bathroom. 236 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,360 Speaker 1: I saw him talking to her with one hand on 237 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: her waist. I saw her push it off and say something, 238 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,040 Speaker 1: and he put it back and he leaned into her ear. 239 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, this guy as dumb as his sacarrox or he's 240 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,319 Speaker 2: drunk as his or both. 241 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 3: He's a drunk skunk bag of ox. 242 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:19,840 Speaker 1: Yeah.

Sally lives a several hour drive from 336 00:15:43,120 --> 00:15:46,480 Speaker 2: that group of girls and almost always misses this girl's trip. 337 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 2: Her friend let her know that she's reaching out early 338 00:15:49,280 --> 00:15:51,920 Speaker 2: to make sure that Sally can go. She told me 339 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 2: she just wants to get ahead of this and doesn't 340 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:57,040 Speaker 2: want to let her friend down. They don't know when 341 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,120 Speaker 2: it would be, but it may be the same date 342 00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:02,680 Speaker 2: as my family's. No one in that group, including us, 343 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 2: have kids, so we have much more flexibility. I'll be 344 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,240 Speaker 2: honest that I got frustrated very quickly and was not 345 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 2: very comforting or understanding. I tried to resist bringing up 346 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: my sister having MS, but eventually I did and said, 347 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,040 Speaker 2: that's why we're pushing so hard to take advantage of 348 00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 2: these years. Sally responded that we don't know that things 349 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 2: will be bad and we need to stay positive. That 350 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,560 Speaker 2: rubbed me the wrong way because I feel like she's 351 00:16:28,640 --> 00:16:31,600 Speaker 2: missing how awful we would feel if the MS did 352 00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: progress quickly. Sally told me that I'm being manipulative and 353 00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 2: controlling for pressuring her to plan her friend's trip around 354 00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 2: my family's trip. I believe it's fair to expect your 355 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:43,640 Speaker 2: spouse to show up for things like like that, and 356 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:48,640 Speaker 2: to prioritize family, especially family you don't see over friends, 357 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:53,080 Speaker 2: particularly with the illness situation. Here's where I could be 358 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 2: the a hole. I definitely reacted poorly when she treated 359 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: the trips as two equally important things. I absolute lutely 360 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 2: pressured her to agree to go on the family trip. 361 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 2: I also brought up previous fights, like about beginning to 362 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 2: split Christmases, to point out that she's been resistant to 363 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 2: sacrificing time with her people to get an equal amount 364 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:16,320 Speaker 2: of time with my people. Also, I'm sure some folks 365 00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 2: are wondering why I don't go alone. My family adores 366 00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 2: Sally and want her to be part of the family. 367 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:24,760 Speaker 2: I want her to be part of my family, just 368 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 2: like I want to be part of her family. It's 369 00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 2: not realistic that we do every single thing together, but 370 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 2: I think we should both make a significant effort to 371 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 2: do so. And we do have an update, but first 372 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:38,879 Speaker 2: let's have a little let's discuss that. 373 00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:40,480 Speaker 3: A little conflicted here. 374 00:17:40,760 --> 00:17:44,120 Speaker 2: I'm conflicted too, because honestly, I got a little mixed 375 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:45,840 Speaker 2: up in my own head and I thought they were 376 00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:50,640 Speaker 2: saying that it was Opee's wife that had the MS NO, 377 00:17:50,760 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: but I got it mixed up. It's his sister, yes, 378 00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 2: which is adding a layer on the pressure of like, 379 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,000 Speaker 2: you need to come and have this trip with my 380 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:01,160 Speaker 2: family and my sister. Yeah for MS progressive. 381 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 3: I think it also seems like the trip has been 382 00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,199 Speaker 3: planned for a while, and Dutchess Casana says, if you 383 00:18:08,200 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 3: already have a date for the sister thing, isn't it 384 00:18:09,840 --> 00:18:12,399 Speaker 3: just easier to plan around that date. Yeah. Why couldn't 385 00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 3: you have sent that to the friends and said like, hey, yeah, 386 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 3: these dates don't work for me, I'm going to, you know, 387 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:21,720 Speaker 3: so support my Yance's family. 388 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think I think there should definitely have been 389 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 2: more of a discussion about like this, And I get 390 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,720 Speaker 2: it's it's not gonna work for but I get that 391 00:18:30,760 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 2: if she's missed so many of them that she doesn't 392 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 2: now want to be like the squeaky wheel of being like, uh, 393 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 2: actually that's not gonna work for me, So you all 394 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 2: need to make it work. But like I feel like 395 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: if if. 396 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 3: They're your friends, I feel like, and you're doing it 397 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,919 Speaker 3: so far in advance. 398 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 2: Exactly, it's like it's not at a point where it's 399 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 2: like an unsolvable problems. 400 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 3: Like they're saying, hey, can you do these dates? And 401 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,119 Speaker 3: you could say hey, presumably if they're asking you so 402 00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 3: far in advance, they're trying to see if you know, 403 00:18:58,359 --> 00:18:59,120 Speaker 3: the dates work. 404 00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 2: So I just like for you to tell them, no, 405 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 2: they don't work. Here's some dates that might work better. 406 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:08,119 Speaker 3: Yeah, but also you can't necessarily like tell her that 407 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 3: she has to go, Like you can't force it. 408 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,399 Speaker 2: It would be the angel move, yeah, to go. It 409 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,959 Speaker 2: would be the partner spouse like sacrifice play to support 410 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:19,320 Speaker 2: your spouse when they're going through really hard yeah. Especially Yeah, 411 00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 2: of course, let's see what happens in this update. Folks, 412 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,439 Speaker 2: thank you all for your advice and input. When I 413 00:19:25,520 --> 00:19:28,119 Speaker 2: left the original post, I was not in a great headspace. 414 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 2: I also tried to keep it concise, so there's plenty 415 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,359 Speaker 2: of contexts that I missed This will be the last 416 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:36,399 Speaker 2: that I update or respond, and I'll break the update 417 00:19:36,440 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 2: into additional context and the resolution. So here's the additional context. 418 00:19:42,040 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 2: Sally adores my family as well. She has always told 419 00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,880 Speaker 2: me how much they mean to her, and has even 420 00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:49,960 Speaker 2: floated the idea of potentially moving to my home state 421 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 2: and how would we and how we would be able 422 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 2: to see my parents and my sister more. We haven't 423 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,919 Speaker 2: made any decisions, and leaving her home state would be 424 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 2: very difficult for her. It's impossible to summarize everything she's 425 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: done to show she cares about my family over the 426 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,560 Speaker 2: last seven years, but I know, beyond the shadow of 427 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 2: a doubt that she does. Okay, that's good. Yeah, So 428 00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 2: it's not like she's just trying to brush off the family. 429 00:20:11,960 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 2: She's never gone on this trip that she's invited to 430 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 2: because she is not close with the majority of the 431 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,919 Speaker 2: people on the trip. Her best friend reached out to 432 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: her early because she really wants Sally to become closer 433 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 2: friends with this group. An interesting layer. The scenario that 434 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,080 Speaker 2: led us to knowing about my sister's diagnosis was crappy. 435 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: We found out by my mom accidentally telling me that 436 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:42,399 Speaker 2: my sister was getting tests done. We were sworn to 437 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,199 Speaker 2: secrecy because my sister was adamant that she didn't want 438 00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 2: to distract us from the wedding until she had the 439 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 2: final diagnosis. It was an honest mistake from my mom. 440 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 2: But it's been an emotionally charged situation for both Sally 441 00:20:54,440 --> 00:20:58,000 Speaker 2: and me. We're both grieving. That is a lot of 442 00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 2: complication for a variety of reasons. We have been completely 443 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 2: overwhelmed by this wedding. There's a lot of drama coming 444 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,200 Speaker 2: from outside sources, and it's been exhausting to the point 445 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 2: where we wish we had just eloped. No, it is 446 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 2: not my family. Sally has unlimited paid time off, and 447 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 2: we have more than enough funds to do both trips. 448 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,600 Speaker 2: I don't know everything about multiple ms. My understanding is 449 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 2: that it's absolutely possible. It has a minimal impact on 450 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:25,960 Speaker 2: my sister for the next few decades, but it could 451 00:21:26,119 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 2: also be a debilitating situation my family. We're all together 452 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,960 Speaker 2: without me in Italy two weekends ago. We will all 453 00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 2: be together over the wedding. Over the wedding in a 454 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 2: few weeks. This trip will not be a loaded, heavy 455 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 2: saying goodbye trip at all. It's just something we want 456 00:21:43,000 --> 00:21:45,119 Speaker 2: to prioritize because the futures are sure. 457 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:46,640 Speaker 3: It's just to hang out with the sister and spend 458 00:21:46,680 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 3: time with her while you know she's doing better. 459 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,800 Speaker 2: So it's not necessarily a make or break moment, no 460 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 2: for the family and for Op's is it wife or 461 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 2: fiance jonsa fiance? This is a really sort of ray. 462 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 2: Usually I feel like I've made up my mind by now. 463 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 2: I really have very in the middle of both of. 464 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 3: These, because I understand kind of both sides, but I 465 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:10,879 Speaker 3: also understand like wanting to have your partner there for 466 00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:13,199 Speaker 3: kind of a scary moment. Yeah, and you're about to 467 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,919 Speaker 3: get married. Hm, you're like, oh, if you can't, like, 468 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:19,199 Speaker 3: if you're not searing taking this as seriously as I am. 469 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:22,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think I can relate a little bit 470 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:28,120 Speaker 2: to the position of just trying to play it cool. Yeah, 471 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,840 Speaker 2: when things are bad, Like, that's what I That's what 472 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:33,880 Speaker 2: I've done for pretty much like every every like bad 473 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: scary thing that happens to me, I'm always just like, 474 00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 2: that's gonna be fine, fine, Yeah, And like most of 475 00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 2: the time it ends also being fine, And I feel 476 00:22:42,320 --> 00:22:45,119 Speaker 2: like that's I'm tricking the universe into just making everything okay. 477 00:22:45,320 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 2: Manifestation Yeah, basically just manifesting positive things. So here comes 478 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:54,919 Speaker 2: the resolution. We had a great conversation about all of 479 00:22:54,960 --> 00:22:58,119 Speaker 2: this this morning. We acknowledge that we're both overwhelmed with 480 00:22:58,160 --> 00:23:01,639 Speaker 2: this diagnosis, and we're both overwhelmed with wedding planning to 481 00:23:01,680 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 2: the point where it's really difficult to wrap our heads 482 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,399 Speaker 2: around what comes next. We came into that conversation in 483 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:09,479 Speaker 2: an unhealthy headspace and both said things that weren't ideal. 484 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,680 Speaker 2: But what would be ideal is if you join us 485 00:23:12,760 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 2: live on YouTube every weekday at three PMPs T. Just 486 00:23:16,119 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 2: tap that profile. 487 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, honestly, maybe the time apart will 488 00:23:20,359 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 3: be helpful for them. 489 00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:22,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it could be. 490 00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, if they're like just kind of getting into the 491 00:23:25,280 --> 00:23:26,000 Speaker 3: nerves a little bit. 492 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,280 Speaker 2: You don't want to stress, you don't you don't want 493 00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 2: to foster any sort of like resentment by being like 494 00:23:30,400 --> 00:23:33,000 Speaker 2: you made me miss this trip. And then imagine it's 495 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 2: like your sister does end up having like a very 496 00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:39,680 Speaker 2: mild you know, MS, and it's like then she's like, see, 497 00:23:39,760 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 2: I told you.

It's not 505 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,159 Speaker 2: even about letting her right that she's able to do 506 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:57,880 Speaker 2: whatever she wants. 507 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 3: Also, it's like, I am wondering, is there a compromise 508 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,160 Speaker 3: where she goes on some of it, you know, visits 509 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 3: that like buys back or whatever. I don't know if 510 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,200 Speaker 3: there's a financial no, just you know. 511 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 2: Push that the dates don't work. Yeah, But really, like 512 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:12,159 Speaker 2: I don't understand why that's. 513 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 3: I don't know why that wasn't brought up, Like why. 514 00:24:13,720 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe it was a thing where it was like 515 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 2: I'm reaching out to let you know the date ahead 516 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 2: of time so that you can plan around it, sure, 517 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 2: instead of like is this gonna work? Yeah, because she's 518 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 2: not really in the friend group, so it would be 519 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 2: weird for them to like replan around. 520 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 3: Someone who's one person Yeah into. 521 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,879 Speaker 2: It, and maybe she wants to be more in the circle. 522 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: I don't know. There is a little bit more information here, 523 00:24:35,720 --> 00:24:38,439 Speaker 2: So okay, so let's let's let's finish it off. So 524 00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:41,520 Speaker 2: she wants to go on the trip. She's been feeling 525 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 2: protective about committing to things in the next year because 526 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 2: of how underwater she is with the wedding, but on reflection, 527 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 2: realized how important this is to her. Sally also let 528 00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 2: me know that she's still adjusting to having family that 529 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: has kids and how inflexible their schedules are. Her siblings 530 00:24:57,480 --> 00:25:00,240 Speaker 2: don't have kids, so their vacations are a lot more flexible. 531 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 2: We're going to sit down when we're less overwhelmed and 532 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,040 Speaker 2: talk about what our goals for how often we see 533 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 2: each side of the family are, how we can make 534 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:11,640 Speaker 2: that happen, and how we'll handle situations like that in 535 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:16,040 Speaker 2: the future. Thanks everyone, Thank you. Wait, but I'm still confused. 536 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,399 Speaker 2: She wants to go on the trip? 537 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:17,720 Speaker 3: Yeah? 538 00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:20,160 Speaker 2: So is that the trip with the family trip? 539 00:25:20,200 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 3: I think she wants to go on our girls trip? 540 00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 2: Yeah? Tell me again, I really, I can't. I'm sorry, 541 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,160 Speaker 2: I can't tell. I feel like it would have said 542 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:29,720 Speaker 2: she wants to go on the girl's trip, right. 543 00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 3: I think it was saying she wants to go on 544 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:32,960 Speaker 3: because she was saying before that she wanted to go 545 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,439 Speaker 3: on the girls trip, So I think it's saying she 546 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 3: still wants to go on the Girls Trip. Read that 547 00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 3: sentence one more time. 548 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,919 Speaker 2: So this is the final bit, final bit, chat, let 549 00:25:41,000 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 2: us know what you think that this is saying, because 550 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:46,440 Speaker 2: it seems so vague to me. She wants to go 551 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 2: on the trip. She has been feeling protective about committing 552 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 2: to things in the next year because of how underwater 553 00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 2: she is with the wedding, but on reflection realized how 554 00:25:56,960 --> 00:25:59,840 Speaker 2: important this is to her. Sally also let me know 555 00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 2: that she's still adjusting to having family that has kids 556 00:26:03,080 --> 00:26:07,119 Speaker 2: and how inflexible their schedules are. Her siblings don't have kids, 557 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,920 Speaker 2: so their vacations are a lot more flexible. We're going 558 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,480 Speaker 2: to sit down when we're less overwhelmed and talk about 559 00:26:12,520 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 2: what our goals for how often we see each side 560 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,879 Speaker 2: of the family are, how we can make that happen, 561 00:26:18,119 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 2: and how we'll handle situations like that in the future. 562 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 3: Okay, Actually, thanks everyone. I think that's saying that she 563 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 3: wants to go on the Sister Trip. I agree with 564 00:26:27,480 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 3: you because the way that she said it was saying 565 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,119 Speaker 3: she wants to go on the trip. She realized that 566 00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:35,000 Speaker 3: was important to her, and then said, originally she was 567 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,600 Speaker 3: feeling defensive because she's always canceling on this trip, but 568 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 3: then she realized this is I honestly I thought it 569 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 3: was girls trip, but now I'm changing my mind. I 570 00:26:42,320 --> 00:26:43,879 Speaker 3: think she's saying that she wants to go on the 571 00:26:43,920 --> 00:26:45,800 Speaker 3: sister trip, but let us do with the comments. 572 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 2: You know. It's really funny is that after I read it, 573 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 2: I switched to the other side. I think it was 574 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,080 Speaker 2: because of the ending, because how the ending goes that 575 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 2: like they're going to sit down when we're less overwhelmed. Yeah, 576 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:02,440 Speaker 2: talk about what our goals for seeing the family are 577 00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 2: and how we can make that happen and how we'll 578 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 2: handle it. 579 00:27:05,359 --> 00:27:07,479 Speaker 3: I think it's just saying we're gonna go. See now, 580 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 3: the way that I went to this time is, oh, 581 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,080 Speaker 3: we I'm gonna go on the trip with your to 582 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 3: your sister, and then in the future so this doesn't 583 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,320 Speaker 3: happen again, and we'll talk about how much we want 584 00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 3: to go, you know. 585 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:22,359 Speaker 2: Okay, see, look, this is just people saying sister's trip, 586 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:25,840 Speaker 2: girls trip, and then there's we're all refused. 587 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,560 Speaker 3: We're going to pick I'm going to speak from the 588 00:27:27,600 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 3: sister trip. I think it's good that they had to talk. 589 00:27:29,960 --> 00:27:33,240 Speaker 3: They communicate it. It seems like she, you know, realized 590 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,640 Speaker 3: that she cares a lot about Opie's family and wants 591 00:27:35,680 --> 00:27:38,920 Speaker 3: to be there, And I appreciate that she It wasn't 592 00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:41,479 Speaker 3: coming from a place where Opie was pressuring her. It 593 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,080 Speaker 3: felt like she really cared and was like, you know what, No, 594 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,760 Speaker 3: this is my decision, And after thinking about it and 595 00:27:46,800 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 3: looking at both sides, I agree this is the right 596 00:27:49,280 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 3: trip to make. And so I appreciate that they had 597 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:53,199 Speaker 3: that coming together and talked it out. 598 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,880 Speaker 2: Now for the flip side of this, so she ends 599 00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 2: up going on the girls trip. She realizes that this 600 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:02,119 Speaker 2: is it's just something that she wanted to do. You know, 601 00:28:02,240 --> 00:28:05,040 Speaker 2: maybe she's been trying to make friends with these people 602 00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 2: for a long time. She's got a best friend, and 603 00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: she's like, look, like op said, like this isn't some 604 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:14,080 Speaker 2: sort of like hard heavy goodbye see you forever, Like 605 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 2: it's it just happens to be a trip that lined 606 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:18,920 Speaker 2: up where everyone gets you know, it would be convenient 607 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 2: because it's hard to do. But I think she decided 608 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 2: it's like this girl's trip actually is really important for me, 609 00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 2: and I do feel for your family, I do I 610 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,960 Speaker 2: feel for your system. So in order to prevent this 611 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 2: from ever happening again. Once we come back and you 612 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 2: go on your trip, I go on my trip. We're 613 00:28:35,280 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 2: going to sit down clearly discuss what our goals and 614 00:28:38,520 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: our wants are for connecting with each other's family, and 615 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:44,000 Speaker 2: figure out exactly how we're going to make that happen 616 00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 2: in the future. But for right now, with everything going 617 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:50,520 Speaker 2: on and the wedding and now this ms like diagnosis 618 00:28:50,560 --> 00:28:53,400 Speaker 2: and like now that it's just too much to try 619 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:55,280 Speaker 2: to actually figure out right now. So I'm going to 620 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 2: go on this girl's trip, and you're going to go 621 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:58,240 Speaker 2: on your family trip, and then I will see your 622 00:28:58,240 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: family in two weeks when we go to a wedding, 623 00:29:00,040 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 2: and YadA, YadA YadA. That's why. And I think that 624 00:29:02,800 --> 00:29:05,920 Speaker 2: was a good conclusion. Yeah, sitting down and defining clear 625 00:29:05,960 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: boundaries and wants and goals good communication. 626 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 3: So now this is kind of a Choose your Own 627 00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 3: Adventure podcasts and you can pick which one you think 628 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 3: is the right answer. Choose your own adventure. Oh yeah, 629 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 3: that was the end of that story. 630 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 2: My fiance refused to watch my first ten k race 631 00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: because he didn't want to wake up early. Wow. Hey, 632 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 2: when you're not a morning person. You're not a morning person, Okay. I, 633 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 2: twenty five female, have my first ever ten k race tomorrow, 634 00:29:35,320 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 2: which is six point two miles. I've been running for 635 00:29:37,760 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 2: a bit over a year and I've done some five ks, 636 00:29:40,640 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 2: but this is the longest run I will compete or complete, 637 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,240 Speaker 2: and it is a major milestone in my running journey. 638 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 2: By the way, this comes from user loud Medicine for 639 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 2: seventy on the r slash ok story times I read it. 640 00:29:52,960 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 2: So this is a pretty big race here in my city, 641 00:29:55,400 --> 00:29:57,200 Speaker 2: so I know that parking and navigation is going to 642 00:29:57,240 --> 00:30:00,800 Speaker 2: be complicated. I also really want someone to there to drive, 643 00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:04,080 Speaker 2: cheer me on, have water, greet me at the finish line, 644 00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:08,120 Speaker 2: you know, typical supportive things. I asked my fiance twenty 645 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 2: six mail if he could come to be with me 646 00:30:10,680 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 2: for the race and drive, since I'll be exhausted after 647 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 2: as well, but since the race starts at seven thirty am, 648 00:30:16,520 --> 00:30:19,480 Speaker 2: he's unwilling to come. He has known about this race 649 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 2: since I started training for it, like four months ago. 650 00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:24,840 Speaker 2: He even bought me a garment to help me on 651 00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:28,200 Speaker 2: my training, a garment watch. Another important piece of info 652 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:30,280 Speaker 2: is that we were invited to go see a choir 653 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 2: concert of one of his old college friends who's going 654 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:36,040 Speaker 2: to college about three hours away from us this weekend. 655 00:30:36,440 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 2: So the plan is to leave Saturday night, stay at 656 00:30:38,680 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 2: his place, see the concert Sunday afternoon, and drive back 657 00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:44,760 Speaker 2: home that evening. We learned this about two weeks ago. 658 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 2: The issue comes in when I asked if he could 659 00:30:47,120 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 2: come with to support me and cheer me on, because 660 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 2: it's a common thing people do for their significant other 661 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,360 Speaker 2: and it would mean a lot to me if he 662 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 2: came along. He isn't a morning person, and I know 663 00:30:56,680 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 2: this about him, but it is hurting me more than 664 00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 2: I thought. It's hurting me more than I thought it 665 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 2: would that he's refusing to come to my race, but 666 00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 2: is willing to drive three hours away to support someone's 667 00:31:06,600 --> 00:31:09,680 Speaker 2: someone he's only known for like a year. More context, 668 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 2: I work full time in My fiance is finishing up 669 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,680 Speaker 2: his bachelor's in music. He started school later than me, 670 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,320 Speaker 2: so he's a full time university student. So I do 671 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 2: understand that he's busy and I don't want to overwhelm him. 672 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,160 Speaker 2: But since he's a music major, he often has concerts 673 00:31:24,160 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 2: and performances which I have gone to like ninety percent 674 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 2: of them, not because I feel obligated, but because I 675 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 2: want to see him doing his thing. I told him 676 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:36,080 Speaker 2: that I was really torn up about this, and I'm 677 00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 2: confused because he isn't willing to wake up to watch 678 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,800 Speaker 2: something that I've been training for months for, but he 679 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: has the energy for a weekend trip. Am I overreacting? 680 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:47,960 Speaker 3: No? 681 00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,640 Speaker 2: No, I don't think so. I mean it's not like 682 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,360 Speaker 2: you're you might be overreacting if you were like you 683 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 2: have to come to this or elsewhere done. It's like, 684 00:31:54,680 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: how but that might be overreacting. 685 00:31:56,240 --> 00:31:58,520 Speaker 3: Really fair for being annoyed. And he's not even taken it, 686 00:31:58,560 --> 00:31:59,480 Speaker 3: you know, he's not even. 687 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 2: He does it seems pretty dismissive, just over a seven 688 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: thirty start time, like like. 689 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:07,040 Speaker 3: The easiest there's not it's not even an obstacle. 690 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, Like what happens if like you guys theoretically like 691 00:32:09,680 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 2: have a kid and like, yeah, well I can't get 692 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 2: to go to the hospital at five your water breaks 693 00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:16,040 Speaker 2: in the morning. And he's like, can you, like maybe 694 00:32:16,120 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 2: just go by yourself. 695 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 3: I'll meet you there later. You just just hold it. 696 00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:21,400 Speaker 2: You know what time it is for me so early 697 00:32:21,720 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 2: I have music to make. I keep going back and 698 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 2: forth in my head because I feel like he should 699 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 2: want to be there for me, but he does have 700 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:30,920 Speaker 2: his own life and I can't force him or be 701 00:32:31,080 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 2: overbearing about it. Because he did tell me that I'm 702 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:34,960 Speaker 2: kind of making him feel bad for not wanting to 703 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:38,200 Speaker 2: come good. Well, yeah you should. You should let your 704 00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,320 Speaker 2: feelings inform you as to what decision you want to make. 705 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 3: Oh, it's like it's so. I also sometimes certain situations 706 00:32:44,160 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 3: where you're just expressing just like hey, like I would 707 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:48,440 Speaker 3: love for you to show up, and then the other 708 00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 3: person's like, oh, well, you're making me feel bad. It's like, no, 709 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 3: you're just guilty because you're not doing what you should 710 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 3: be doing. 711 00:32:55,160 --> 00:32:57,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, what's actually happening is you feel bad. 712 00:32:57,760 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 3: You feel bad. It's not my fault that you feel 713 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:02,600 Speaker 3: bad for you not doing something. 714 00:33:02,680 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 2: Oh my god. Opie's fiance is literally just learning what 715 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 2: feelings are. 716 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 3: This is hard. 717 00:33:09,560 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 2: Also, though throughout our entire four year relationship, I have 718 00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:16,680 Speaker 2: never not come to something because I didn't feel like it. 719 00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,880 Speaker 2: Any advice would be helpful here. Also, the relationship is 720 00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 2: great other than this, So I want to figure this 721 00:33:22,560 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 2: out before ending anything. I just feel like he doesn't 722 00:33:25,360 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 2: understand that I'm hurt by all of this. We do 723 00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 2: have an edit. 724 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 3: I think you just go you go chat with them 725 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,920 Speaker 3: and say, hey, I feel like i'm you know, I 726 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 3: love going to all of your concerts and stuff, and 727 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 3: I would never you know, guilty, or want to make 728 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 3: you guilty. I feel guilty for not being able to come. 729 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:48,680 Speaker 3: But I feel like seven point thirty isn't isn't an option. 730 00:33:48,680 --> 00:33:49,000 Speaker 2: I don't know. 731 00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 3: I'm not the same. 732 00:33:49,840 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 2: Kind of stand on business here a little bit. If 733 00:33:51,520 --> 00:33:54,280 Speaker 2: I'm being honest, like she's gone to like ninety percent 734 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 2: of his concerts. I mean, I would just induce it's 735 00:33:56,920 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 2: like she's just trying to support him and just being 736 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 2: like this is a. 737 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:01,960 Speaker 3: Big deal for me. 738 00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, delicately explain to your fiance, like, so this is 739 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 2: how feelings work. You're feeling bad, and that should maybe 740 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:12,120 Speaker 2: inform you as to what decision needs to be made. Now, 741 00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,080 Speaker 2: I'm not really making you feel that You're you're feeling 742 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 2: feeling it. 743 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,160 Speaker 3: You're feeling it. Yeah, you're feeling feelings. Feel him. 744 00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:22,080 Speaker 2: So he's here comes the edit. A lot of people 745 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:25,279 Speaker 2: are saying that I should communicate, and I have. We 746 00:34:25,360 --> 00:34:28,160 Speaker 2: have talked about this for weeks and Now that it's closer, 747 00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 2: he is now saying that he doesn't want to come. 748 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 2: I've told him that this is really important to me 749 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:34,440 Speaker 2: and seeing him at the finish line would make me 750 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:36,799 Speaker 2: light up and mean the world to me. He is 751 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 2: still refusing after multiple conversations, and his response the past 752 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 2: few days is that it is too early. I majored 753 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,240 Speaker 2: in exercise science in college and working out slash sports 754 00:34:48,280 --> 00:34:50,439 Speaker 2: are one of my main hobbies. This isn't a shock 755 00:34:50,480 --> 00:34:52,600 Speaker 2: to him. I just feel like he really doesn't want 756 00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,080 Speaker 2: to go, which I don't understand. The longer I pressed 757 00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 2: him on it, he said that I'm trying to make 758 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:58,880 Speaker 2: him feel bad and I need to accept no for 759 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:02,360 Speaker 2: an answer and ask someone else. I keep bringing it up, 760 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:04,720 Speaker 2: and at this point he's not budging, and I'm thinking 761 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,840 Speaker 2: about giving up and just moving on. Okay, and we 762 00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 2: do have an update.

He did complain 790 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,680 Speaker 2: a bit about how tired he was, but I was 791 00:36:19,719 --> 00:36:22,400 Speaker 2: glad that he actually did it. He did not stay 792 00:36:22,440 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 2: to watch any of the race, so he did not 793 00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:26,960 Speaker 2: stay to watch any of the race, but I could 794 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 2: only make it about two miles in before I left 795 00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:31,000 Speaker 2: and called him to pick me up. I was not 796 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 2: in the right headspace that morning, and I'm not mad 797 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:35,439 Speaker 2: at myself.

And it's an 812 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 2: easier thing to have people come and support. 813 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,319 Speaker 3: Stop making excuses for him. 814 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, but you can just come support us every weekday 815 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:13,680 Speaker 2: when we go live on. 816 00:37:13,600 --> 00:37:16,640 Speaker 3: YouTube at three PMPST. Just tap on our programs. Tap it. 817 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 2: Maybe it's a bit of jealousy that I felt, and 818 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:22,879 Speaker 2: maybe just wanted some attention because he's a very good 819 00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:26,240 Speaker 2: musician and has had many big performances for both his singing, 820 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,239 Speaker 2: and he plays many instruments and is just a very 821 00:37:29,280 --> 00:37:32,920 Speaker 2: talented person. I will never not be his biggest supporter. 822 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,200 Speaker 2: He never has to worry about people not being in 823 00:37:35,239 --> 00:37:37,759 Speaker 2: the audience because he knows that me, his parents, and 824 00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 2: other family members will be there in a heartbeat. I 825 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,399 Speaker 2: love him a lot, and this was just a little 826 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 2: hiccup in the relationship. I need to find people who 827 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,879 Speaker 2: share similar interests in hobbies because there are other things 828 00:37:47,880 --> 00:37:50,799 Speaker 2: that we can do together. Running an exercise is more 829 00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 2: of an individual activity, where music is something that can 830 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 2: bring people together. So it isn't that he doesn't care 831 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 2: about me or anything. I still have the. 832 00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 3: Conversation about it. You made it very clear that like 833 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 3: how much. 834 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:03,920 Speaker 2: It would mean to you for him to have like 835 00:38:04,080 --> 00:38:05,960 Speaker 2: he didn't do it for you to have his support, 836 00:38:06,040 --> 00:38:10,160 Speaker 2: and he completely blew that off. So over a seven 837 00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:13,640 Speaker 2: thirty start time. Come on, thanks for all the replies 838 00:38:13,719 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 2: and the advice. I really appreciate it, and. 839 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 3: We really appreciate you, Op, We freaking appreciate you very much. 840 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 3: I think we've given our advice. 841 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:21,319 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's that's it. 842 00:38:21,360 --> 00:38:22,360 Speaker 3: I think it's my advice. 843 00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,239 Speaker 2: I think it's right where you're like, it's not this 844 00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 2: not like a world ending problem for our relationship. We 845 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:29,960 Speaker 2: can find other things that we want to do together. 846 00:38:30,200 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 2: But it really does bother me that you made it 847 00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 2: so so really clear that it would mean the world 848 00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:38,920 Speaker 2: to you if he was just there for you and 849 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:40,759 Speaker 2: he could not care less good. 850 00:38:41,120 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I don't think you can. You should let 851 00:38:43,200 --> 00:38:45,279 Speaker 3: have to let him off hook so much. Yeah, and 852 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 3: he hasn't changed. 853 00:38:46,320 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 2: So I think, yeah, I agree. We love you. Thanks 854 00:38:49,280 --> 00:38:50,759 Speaker 2: for the story. We hope that he We hope that 855 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 2: he shows up to at least one of your races 856 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:52,720 Speaker 2: in the future. 857 00:38:52,760 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 3: I really hope. So my friend's husband hates my husband 858 00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:00,160 Speaker 3: for showing him up. Now I think their marriage is ending. 859 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 3: I'm writing this post because my best friend Kate husband 860 00:39:05,520 --> 00:39:10,680 Speaker 3: Bert called my husband Tim and Ah. I have historically 861 00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:13,680 Speaker 3: kept my opinion of Bert's behavior to a minimum on 862 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 3: the grounds that good friends say their piece once and 863 00:39:16,480 --> 00:39:20,280 Speaker 3: then love each other through crap relationships. But I'm asking 864 00:39:20,360 --> 00:39:22,600 Speaker 3: internet strangers to be the judge. By the way, this 865 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 3: comes from crap kid Throwaway on the okay, storytime supparate it. 866 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:28,680 Speaker 3: So I am traveling for work. Kate is stuck at 867 00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 3: home working at seven months pregnant on modified bed rest. 868 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 3: Generally during the week I drop over once or twice 869 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,000 Speaker 3: to bring her family some dinner. 870 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:36,320 Speaker 1: Oh. 871 00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 3: Tim cooks extra portions once a week to share. That's 872 00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:43,520 Speaker 3: so nice. It's like, great, he cooks. He's nice. Maybe 873 00:39:43,719 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 3: cheer her up, read her oldest a couple of bedtime 874 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 3: stories so that mom can go to bed early and 875 00:39:49,040 --> 00:39:52,839 Speaker 3: get some sleep. Nice Tim, All right. Bert works an 876 00:39:52,880 --> 00:39:57,360 Speaker 3: office job. Ugh, stressful, I'm sure, but during her pregnancy, 877 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 3: he's been working longer and longer hours salary not overtime. 878 00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 3: She's been sad and a bit lonely. Yes, I've suggested 879 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 3: counseling with that for background. This evening, she and I 880 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:10,239 Speaker 3: were texting. It was about six ish and she got 881 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,680 Speaker 3: a craving for a taco place near my house. Uh 882 00:40:12,760 --> 00:40:16,239 Speaker 3: oh and importantly near Bert's office. She says. She asked 883 00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:17,919 Speaker 3: him to grab her some on his way home. 884 00:40:18,239 --> 00:40:20,520 Speaker 2: Oh, I see you, I see you. 885 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:24,520 Speaker 3: Oh. He says he's not stopping. Bert said that the husband, 886 00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 3: he's got work at home and she should just door 887 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,399 Speaker 3: dash something close. This makes her extremely sad, she says, 888 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 3: irrationally sad. But you be the judge, because he used 889 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:36,000 Speaker 3: to surprise her with her favorite tacos, and now he 890 00:40:36,040 --> 00:40:37,040 Speaker 3: can't be bothered. 891 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:39,719 Speaker 4: Dang, And then he got then she got pregnant, and 892 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:41,719 Speaker 4: now he doesn't like her and he's probably cheating on her. 893 00:40:41,880 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 3: I hate him, Come on, as one does. I tell 894 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 3: Tim I'm three states away, so it was just part 895 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 3: of our chat. And as I was getting back to 896 00:40:48,960 --> 00:40:51,040 Speaker 3: the hotel and getting ready for work dinner. I get 897 00:40:51,080 --> 00:40:53,239 Speaker 3: back from dinner and Tim had gone and picked her 898 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 3: up tacos, remember the bag of things I'd collected for 899 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:57,640 Speaker 3: her and the kid that were in my car, and 900 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 3: pulled a tuna casserole from the freezer. Bert hates tune 901 00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:03,760 Speaker 3: a cast role. He dropped them off on the porch 902 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 3: and just texted her that there were some things I 903 00:41:05,719 --> 00:41:09,200 Speaker 3: wanted her to have. Okay, nice, nice, This is so sweet. 904 00:41:09,840 --> 00:41:13,880 Speaker 3: Then fricking Bert gets home. Did he bring tacos, coloring 905 00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,319 Speaker 3: books or a good attitude? No, he did not. He 906 00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 3: called Tim to tell him that he was an a 907 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 3: hole for showing him up. Other colorful language was also used, 908 00:41:22,560 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 3: including some fairly sexist nonsense. He also texted me telling 909 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 3: me to keep my husband away from his wife. Tim 910 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:31,560 Speaker 3: did respond rudely when Bert called, Kate says he told 911 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:34,720 Speaker 3: Bert he was a failure as a human, a man, 912 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:38,400 Speaker 3: a father, and a husband all four. Apparently that caused 913 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,200 Speaker 3: Bert to scream expletives so loud their daughter started to cry. 914 00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,480 Speaker 3: Oh dude, Burt st up. 915 00:41:44,520 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 2: Bert, we Ate, go back to your office job. 916 00:41:47,200 --> 00:41:50,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, leave everyone alone? Not good. Tim then hung up 917 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,239 Speaker 3: on Bert, blocked him and texted Kate that if she 918 00:41:53,320 --> 00:41:55,719 Speaker 3: needed someone in an emergency, she knew what to call, 919 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,080 Speaker 3: but he wasn't putting up with her crap husband any long. 920 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:00,960 Speaker 3: It's a giant cluster and I have no idea what's 921 00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,160 Speaker 3: going to happen. My husband feels bad things escalated so much, 922 00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,560 Speaker 3: particularly since their daughter was crying. He feels like an 923 00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,439 Speaker 3: ale at the moment. Obviously, Bert thinks he's an a hole. 924 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 3: I think he's a sweet man. 925 00:42:12,280 --> 00:42:12,560 Speaker 2: He was. 926 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:13,879 Speaker 3: He didn't do anything wrong. 927 00:42:13,880 --> 00:42:14,840 Speaker 2: It's going the extra mile. 928 00:42:15,000 --> 00:42:17,320 Speaker 3: What do you guys think? And there is an update? 929 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,360 Speaker 3: I think that the only a hole here is Bert. 930 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, and your friend needs to leave them? 931 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, because you were covering Bert's butt and making sure 932 00:42:26,880 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 4: that this friend is like feeling loved and. 933 00:42:29,000 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 3: Cared for exactly, and what was Bert doing? Workers salaried 934 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,279 Speaker 3: over to the job say no, door dash not a 935 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 3: happy update, Oh no. TLDR version is that they are 936 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,960 Speaker 3: separating for unrelated reasons. 937 00:42:42,080 --> 00:42:42,600 Speaker 2: Interesting. 938 00:42:42,840 --> 00:42:46,880 Speaker 3: I disagree that they were unrelated. I feel like maybe 939 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 3: it wasn't the taco incident, but it was the behavior 940 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:50,280 Speaker 3: lighter life. 941 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:54,120 Speaker 4: It was a pyramid of things. This was like like 942 00:42:54,160 --> 00:42:56,399 Speaker 4: a level three or four up and then the other 943 00:42:56,480 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 4: foundations have been falling apart. 944 00:42:58,560 --> 00:42:59,400 Speaker 2: Just kind of fell with it. 945 00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 3: Yep. This update is shared with Kate and Tim's permission 946 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:06,640 Speaker 3: for reasons Bert can go f himself. Bert did email 947 00:43:06,680 --> 00:43:09,200 Speaker 3: Tim this morning to apologize. Bert said he had forgotten 948 00:43:09,239 --> 00:43:10,960 Speaker 3: I was out of town and he didn't realize that 949 00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 3: Tim was dropping off the meal train food. It was 950 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:17,240 Speaker 3: a weird email for many reasons, but Tim responded politely, 951 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:21,279 Speaker 3: if noncommittal. Tim hasn't changed his view of Bert, in 952 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,440 Speaker 3: part because of what happened between Burt and Kate. This afternoon. 953 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 3: Bert also texted me to apologize, but I didn't get 954 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,000 Speaker 3: his message until after I landed, and by then everything 955 00:43:30,000 --> 00:43:32,960 Speaker 3: else had happened. I've elected not to respond. Bert went 956 00:43:33,000 --> 00:43:35,759 Speaker 3: home around noon after staying at a hotel last night. 957 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:38,480 Speaker 3: Kate's sister had taken their daughter to the park so 958 00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 3: Burt and Kate could talk it out. Short version is 959 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:43,960 Speaker 3: that Bert has been avoiding Kate because she's not happy 960 00:43:44,160 --> 00:43:46,960 Speaker 3: during this pregnancy. I mentioned in a comment that Kate 961 00:43:46,960 --> 00:43:50,000 Speaker 3: has been married previously, and shortly after her first husband died, 962 00:43:50,280 --> 00:43:52,560 Speaker 3: she had complications in a pregnancy that forced her on 963 00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,759 Speaker 3: bed rest. Ah Man, Unfortunately, her son didn't make it. 964 00:43:55,880 --> 00:44:00,319 Speaker 3: What a horrible like your uh husband passes away, your 965 00:44:00,440 --> 00:44:05,799 Speaker 3: child passes away? No wonder she's so sad lonely. Her 966 00:44:05,800 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 3: current pregnancy is bringing up a lot of painful memories, 967 00:44:08,400 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 3: and she's scared she won't be able to make it 968 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:12,880 Speaker 3: full term. So yes, she's not as cheery as she 969 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 3: was when she was pregnant with her daughter. It's a 970 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:18,280 Speaker 3: difficult time. Bert is frustrated and angry that she's not happy, 971 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:21,120 Speaker 3: so he's been staying late and ignoring her until she 972 00:44:21,160 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 3: stops doing that. I know that sounds horrid, but I 973 00:44:23,520 --> 00:44:25,759 Speaker 3: think they could have worked through those feelings. But as 974 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,960 Speaker 3: he was explaining how he felt, he said she should 975 00:44:27,960 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 3: be glad her son wasn't there, because otherwise she wouldn't 976 00:44:31,160 --> 00:44:37,040 Speaker 3: have this life at all. Oh so yeah, that still 977 00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 3: knocks the wind out of me. It's so cruel. I'm 978 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 3: so glad they're getting separated. Horrible or a monster? 979 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:43,359 Speaker 2: Ah yeah, Yeah. 980 00:44:43,760 --> 00:44:45,640 Speaker 3: She did talk to him about that statement, but the 981 00:44:45,680 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 3: explanation didn't get better in any event. For her. That 982 00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,360 Speaker 3: was just the end.

I'm surprised since they've weathered 1000 00:45:35,480 --> 00:45:39,000 Speaker 3: some fairly crappy things, including infidelity by him. Oh, but 1001 00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:41,640 Speaker 3: I guess that was the line. In any event, her 1002 00:45:41,719 --> 00:45:45,240 Speaker 3: D and D friends are over there for Saturday games 1003 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 3: and they're eating waffles.

They have a prenup, let's go. The 1007 00:45:57,400 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 3: house is hers, his family property is his. I'm sure 1008 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:02,879 Speaker 3: there will be a fight over custody, but she will 1009 00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:05,839 Speaker 3: be financially okay. In any event, she has family and 1010 00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 3: friends who will help and support regardless of what happens, 1011 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 3: and that is the end of the story. 1012 00:46:11,360 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 2: I think he probably was also cheating during that. 1013 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,399 Speaker 3: I don't trust him if he was that, Like if 1014 00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 3: you because there's so many stories where you know, people 1015 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:19,880 Speaker 3: are like, oh, I don't want to be there for 1016 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 3: my wife, what she's pregnant, and they go cheat and 1017 00:46:21,880 --> 00:46:23,359 Speaker 3: they go cheat. Yeah, I don't trust him. 1018 00:46:23,400 --> 00:46:26,480 Speaker 4: I think he's spending all that overtime. That was pointless 1019 00:46:26,520 --> 00:46:28,080 Speaker 4: because yeah, he's on salary. 1020 00:46:28,200 --> 00:46:30,360 Speaker 3: He's freaking on salary, So what is he doing. Yeah, 1021 00:46:30,680 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 3: he's out of her life and that's good.

I do want friends here too, but I 1153 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:40,319 Speaker 4: just don't want to just meet someone off of the 1154 00:51:40,360 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 4: internet and then go to the zoo. I told him 1155 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:45,600 Speaker 4: I do have friends, and he said name one in 1156 00:51:45,640 --> 00:51:47,440 Speaker 4: a super mocking way that made me. 1157 00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:48,240 Speaker 3: Feel so bad. 1158 00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:52,160 Speaker 4: I went upstairs and started crying and we played back 1159 00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:53,319 Speaker 4: in my head all the time. 1160 00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:54,800 Speaker 2: He's just broken my trust. 1161 00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:58,000 Speaker 4: A few hours went by, I went downstairs again and 1162 00:51:58,040 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 4: it's the same thing. I said, can we please walk'ch 1163 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:04,000 Speaker 4: a movie or something. I've cooled down. I'm sorry, and 1164 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 4: he said it's too late. I'm already in a game. 1165 00:52:07,560 --> 00:52:09,919 Speaker 4: Why don't you just go to the gym. I took 1166 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 4: the hint and I went back upstairs. 1167 00:52:12,239 --> 00:52:13,600 Speaker 3: I freaking hate this guy. 1168 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:15,319 Speaker 2: What the actual heck? 1169 00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:17,239 Speaker 3: How do you think that you're in the right ear. 1170 00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 2: You were playing video games when you have a whole 1171 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,239 Speaker 2: wife right there for you to hang out with you. 1172 00:52:21,360 --> 00:52:23,000 Speaker 3: Some people don't have a whole wife. You got a 1173 00:52:23,000 --> 00:52:23,600 Speaker 3: whole wife. 1174 00:52:23,719 --> 00:52:26,239 Speaker 4: By now, it was six pm, and I went down 1175 00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 4: and asked if he wanted to have dinner together and 1176 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:30,839 Speaker 4: watch a movie to wich. He replied, I just say, 1177 00:52:31,160 --> 00:52:33,319 Speaker 4: and I snapped and I said, of course you ate, 1178 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,200 Speaker 4: and you didn't even ask me if I was hungry, 1179 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,640 Speaker 4: because all you've done for the past three days is 1180 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:40,319 Speaker 4: think about yourself. And then he said, I love you, 1181 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:42,480 Speaker 4: but I always spend time with you, and I don't 1182 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:44,880 Speaker 4: always want to hang out with you. It really hurt 1183 00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 4: me because now it feels like every time we do 1184 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,279 Speaker 4: something together, he's not having fun with me. I told him, 1185 00:52:51,640 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 4: you heard me crying and you didn't even come to 1186 00:52:53,960 --> 00:52:55,959 Speaker 4: check if I was okay, and I would have checked 1187 00:52:56,000 --> 00:52:58,240 Speaker 4: on you. And he said, I don't want to listen 1188 00:52:58,280 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 4: to you cry, and if you. 1189 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:00,919 Speaker 2: Have to cry. 1190 00:53:00,960 --> 00:53:03,520 Speaker 4: You can watch this every weekday at three PMPSD. Just 1191 00:53:03,560 --> 00:53:05,520 Speaker 4: step her profile streaking. 1192 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:10,160 Speaker 3: Divorce, Leave him. He sucks. Like you're expressing your feelings 1193 00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:13,160 Speaker 3: and your emotions. He's like, your emotions are so annoying. 1194 00:53:13,400 --> 00:53:15,840 Speaker 3: I hate this, so frustrating. I have to listen to 1195 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,440 Speaker 3: you cry when I could be playing Call of Duty. 1196 00:53:18,680 --> 00:53:21,839 Speaker 4: I hate him, and it's weird that before he's never 1197 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 4: done anything like this. All of a sudden, he's doing this. 1198 00:53:25,120 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 4: I would I would look into it and see if 1199 00:53:27,080 --> 00:53:29,520 Speaker 4: there's something that's changed, but it doesn't seem like he's 1200 00:53:29,520 --> 00:53:30,640 Speaker 4: giving you that attention. 1201 00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:33,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, the moving in together, the moving away from everyone 1202 00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:36,040 Speaker 3: they know, I think that does change a lot when 1203 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:37,799 Speaker 3: you have to kind of rely, like one of you 1204 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 3: is more relying on the other for company and stuff 1205 00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:41,520 Speaker 3: because it's a new place. 1206 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 4: We went back and forth and now I'm back upstairs again, 1207 00:53:45,080 --> 00:53:47,640 Speaker 4: wishing that I had a husband that cared about me. 1208 00:53:48,080 --> 00:53:50,560 Speaker 4: I just feel like he's prioritizing other things over me, 1209 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:53,680 Speaker 4: and it's really taken a toll on my mental health. 1210 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:55,719 Speaker 4: Like I said, I don't mind him doing it or 1211 00:53:55,760 --> 00:53:58,520 Speaker 4: having friends at all, but it's becoming a problem in 1212 00:53:58,560 --> 00:54:01,319 Speaker 4: our relationship. I know I've had some rude things too, 1213 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:04,840 Speaker 4: but honestly, would I be the bad apple if I left? 1214 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:06,680 Speaker 4: I also want to add that my husband cheated on 1215 00:54:06,760 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 4: me three times, never physically, never physically, but it was 1216 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:15,640 Speaker 4: mentally and always included me and my appearance getting talked 1217 00:54:15,800 --> 00:54:18,560 Speaker 4: bad about. We decided to move past it now, but 1218 00:54:18,600 --> 00:54:21,000 Speaker 4: it still affects me, and every time I bring it up, 1219 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:23,279 Speaker 4: he tells me the same thing. It's your fault for 1220 00:54:23,360 --> 00:54:25,560 Speaker 4: choosing to stay with me. If I'm being dramatic about 1221 00:54:25,600 --> 00:54:27,759 Speaker 4: the video games, I just wanted this to be known 1222 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,800 Speaker 4: for context, because maybe it's not all necessarily the video games, 1223 00:54:31,920 --> 00:54:35,480 Speaker 4: but it's me being self conscious from other past things. 1224 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 4: Let me know, Eve, I think it was the other things. 1225 00:54:39,200 --> 00:54:41,520 Speaker 4: I think it's all of those things. He sucks and 1226 00:54:41,560 --> 00:54:44,279 Speaker 4: he doesn't care about you, which is so sad, but 1227 00:54:44,400 --> 00:54:46,719 Speaker 4: it's the case, and you need to leave. He just 1228 00:54:46,719 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 4: wants things that are easy. Yeah, he was like, you 1229 00:54:49,239 --> 00:54:51,920 Speaker 4: should have not been with me. If you didn't want 1230 00:54:51,920 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 4: to abuse me, why didn't you break up with me? 1231 00:54:53,640 --> 00:54:54,560 Speaker 4: There's no takes back. 1232 00:54:54,640 --> 00:54:56,399 Speaker 3: You can't say that you're mad at me for those 1233 00:54:56,440 --> 00:54:57,600 Speaker 3: things when you took me back? 1234 00:54:57,719 --> 00:55:00,520 Speaker 2: What kind of response. Is that just a. 1235 00:55:00,520 --> 00:55:05,320 Speaker 3: Baby baby man, baby man, babyman. Get out of here, dude, 1236 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:10,000 Speaker 3: I hate you. That is wild sucks. But that's the 1237 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,759 Speaker 3: end of that story, so we'll see you next time. 1238 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:15,759 Speaker 3: My friend is having an affair with a married coworker, 1239 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 3: so I'm telling his wife as you should. So my 1240 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,520 Speaker 3: best friend, let's call her D, and I, both twenty 1241 00:55:21,520 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 3: two female, have known each other since middle school. D 1242 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:27,360 Speaker 3: is super friendly and outgoing, always ready to help, and 1243 00:55:27,440 --> 00:55:29,600 Speaker 3: honestly just a great friend. She's always been a bit 1244 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:32,279 Speaker 3: lily crazy, but I didn't mind back then because I 1245 00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:35,239 Speaker 3: was more focused on school and not interested in relationships 1246 00:55:35,320 --> 00:55:37,720 Speaker 3: during that time. By the way, this comes from Dapper 1247 00:55:37,760 --> 00:55:40,680 Speaker 3: Badger forty five to fifty three on the Okay Storytime separated. 1248 00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:43,120 Speaker 3: So we share most of our friends from school, and 1249 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:46,360 Speaker 3: we've had this big group of friends ever since. After graduation, 1250 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:49,480 Speaker 3: we all went to different universities, so I only heard 1251 00:55:49,680 --> 00:55:52,520 Speaker 3: about her life through our group chat. Now a little background. 1252 00:55:52,600 --> 00:55:55,560 Speaker 3: D comes from a very strict and religious family, so 1253 00:55:55,680 --> 00:55:58,360 Speaker 3: even though she was boy crazy in high school, it 1254 00:55:58,400 --> 00:56:02,480 Speaker 3: was mostly harmless. She had some relationships but always talked 1255 00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:06,440 Speaker 3: about saving herself for marriage. Let's go all right, However, 1256 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:11,320 Speaker 3: things changed once she went to college. All right, right, 1257 00:56:11,880 --> 00:56:14,719 Speaker 3: she'd always come back from parties and spilled the tea 1258 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 3: in our group chat about the guys she made out with. 1259 00:56:17,200 --> 00:56:20,000 Speaker 3: At first, it was all fun and games, nothing serious, 1260 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:23,439 Speaker 3: and definitely no hookups. At least that's what she said. 1261 00:56:23,520 --> 00:56:25,600 Speaker 3: D is one of those people who falls for someone 1262 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:29,279 Speaker 3: pretty fast. Every guy who gave her attention became her 1263 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:32,799 Speaker 3: new crush man. Eventually, the group chat started feeling like 1264 00:56:32,880 --> 00:56:36,360 Speaker 3: Dee's personal boy diary. She would chase after guys and 1265 00:56:36,440 --> 00:56:39,400 Speaker 3: let her academic slide oh, which led to her taking 1266 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:42,880 Speaker 3: out a bunch of loans. Oh my god, because. 1267 00:56:42,719 --> 00:56:44,120 Speaker 2: You probably didn't get those scholarships. 1268 00:56:44,200 --> 00:56:46,719 Speaker 3: Yeah, though, that's a whole other story. Fast forward to 1269 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,040 Speaker 3: our last year of college, d found what she thought 1270 00:56:49,120 --> 00:56:51,480 Speaker 3: was the guy for a serious relationship. We didn't really 1271 00:56:51,480 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 3: approve of him, but didn't try to stop her either. 1272 00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,880 Speaker 3: Long story short, he played her, used her, and dumped 1273 00:56:56,920 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 3: her for words. She was devastated because she had really 1274 00:57:00,200 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 3: fallen for him. After they broke up, she went on 1275 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:04,720 Speaker 3: a bit of a wild streak with friends with benefit 1276 00:57:04,760 --> 00:57:08,839 Speaker 3: hookups and one night stands almost every weekend. Damn, he 1277 00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:11,440 Speaker 3: really didn't numb brought her. Yeah, we tried to be 1278 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:13,560 Speaker 3: there for her and help from a distance, but she 1279 00:57:13,640 --> 00:57:16,960 Speaker 3: always insisted she was fine. Here's the thing, We're not 1280 00:57:17,040 --> 00:57:20,160 Speaker 3: from the US, and in our country, random hookups are 1281 00:57:20,160 --> 00:57:23,240 Speaker 3: pretty frowned upon. Still, I always thought her personal life 1282 00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:27,680 Speaker 3: was none of my business until recently. After university, D 1283 00:57:27,800 --> 00:57:30,080 Speaker 3: landed a job at a bank where our mutual friend 1284 00:57:30,200 --> 00:57:33,320 Speaker 3: A also works let's call her Allison. Recently, she got 1285 00:57:33,320 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 3: transferred to a new department where most of the workers 1286 00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:39,479 Speaker 3: are pretty young, and she quickly became close to this guy, 1287 00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:42,480 Speaker 3: let's call him Emmett thirty Mail. They would hang out 1288 00:57:42,520 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 3: a lot, go out for smokes, grab coffee, and there 1289 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:49,160 Speaker 3: was a lot of flirting involved. Then Alison found out 1290 00:57:49,200 --> 00:57:52,800 Speaker 3: through coworkers that Emmett was married with a little kid. 1291 00:57:52,920 --> 00:57:56,000 Speaker 3: Oh no, she told De right away, and d swore 1292 00:57:56,080 --> 00:57:58,680 Speaker 3: she'd never mess around with a married man. Fast forward 1293 00:57:58,720 --> 00:58:01,920 Speaker 3: a bit, De admitted to kissing him, but promised it 1294 00:58:01,920 --> 00:58:02,800 Speaker 3: wouldn't happen again. 1295 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:07,320 Speaker 4: Oh no, girl, I just wanted to smoke the same 1296 00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:07,880 Speaker 4: cigar and. 1297 00:58:09,680 --> 00:58:12,800 Speaker 3: Aci touched. We were just close talking. A few weeks later, 1298 00:58:12,880 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 3: she called me in tears, saying they slept together. Oh Wow, 1299 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,760 Speaker 3: whoa Gurley? Okay, Gurley, I. 1300 00:58:18,840 --> 00:58:21,040 Speaker 2: Was maybe giving you the benefit of a doubt for 1301 00:58:21,120 --> 00:58:22,840 Speaker 2: the kissing thing, but dang. 1302 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:28,080 Speaker 3: Curly, come on, No dean knows how I feel about cheating. 1303 00:58:28,240 --> 00:58:30,520 Speaker 3: My dad cheated on my mom, and I witnessed the 1304 00:58:30,600 --> 00:58:34,840 Speaker 3: pain it caused firsthand. I was honestly speechless when she 1305 00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:37,520 Speaker 3: told me. She promised she would cut ties with Emmett. 1306 00:58:37,560 --> 00:58:39,680 Speaker 3: But now we all know that they're still meaning up, 1307 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 3: going on friendly hangouts and sleeping together. She doesn't seem 1308 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,800 Speaker 3: to regret it at all. So here is my dilemma. 1309 00:58:45,920 --> 00:58:48,680 Speaker 3: I'm planning to end our friendship. I think that's completely fair. 1310 00:58:48,840 --> 00:58:51,560 Speaker 3: You guys have different different morals here. She does not 1311 00:58:51,640 --> 00:58:53,840 Speaker 3: care about cheating, you know, having an affair with someone. 1312 00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:56,480 Speaker 3: I'm disgusted by what she's doing, and it's hard for 1313 00:58:56,520 --> 00:58:58,400 Speaker 3: me to even call her my friend at this point. 1314 00:58:58,560 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 3: I've already told some of our mutual friends, but none 1315 00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 3: of them are on my side. They think this is 1316 00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:05,640 Speaker 3: a minor thing that's not worth ending a long time 1317 00:59:05,680 --> 00:59:08,040 Speaker 3: friendship over. They say we don't even know Emmett or 1318 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:10,520 Speaker 3: his wife personally, and that I'm an a hole. Your 1319 00:59:10,560 --> 00:59:14,080 Speaker 3: friends also kind of suck Anyone who's condoning this behavior 1320 00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:16,000 Speaker 3: is not is not good. I don't think I'm an 1321 00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:18,920 Speaker 3: a hole, but their comments have made me doubt myself. 1322 00:59:19,160 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 3: Am I the a hole? And there is an update? No, 1323 00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:24,280 Speaker 3: I don't think you're the ale at all. 1324 00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:27,640 Speaker 2: No, you have morals. Yeah, I'm surprised she's not trying 1325 00:59:27,680 --> 00:59:29,280 Speaker 2: to go to the wife and tell me to go. 1326 00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:31,680 Speaker 3: It's crazy that all the friends are like, Oh, you're 1327 00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 3: the Ale for not wanting to be friends with this person. 1328 00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:36,920 Speaker 2: Wait until she gets he gets publicly shamed. In the. 1329 00:59:38,520 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 3: Thank you all for your feedback. I read almost everything 1330 00:59:41,240 --> 00:59:43,840 Speaker 3: and notice that some people have raised questions which I'd 1331 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,600 Speaker 3: like to address. Yes, it turned out that Emmett is 1332 00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:50,080 Speaker 3: actually married, as many typical unfaithful man, and he told 1333 00:59:50,160 --> 00:59:52,280 Speaker 3: THEE that he and his wife have been distant for 1334 00:59:52,320 --> 00:59:55,040 Speaker 3: a long time. Shut up dude, that he plans to 1335 00:59:55,080 --> 00:59:57,560 Speaker 3: divorce her then do it, but wife is currently in 1336 00:59:57,600 --> 01:00:00,000 Speaker 3: a bad condition. He also mentioned that he's been cheating 1337 01:00:00,040 --> 01:00:01,880 Speaker 3: on her for a while and that everything is fine 1338 01:00:01,880 --> 01:00:02,880 Speaker 3: and blah blah blah. 1339 01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:05,720 Speaker 4: What I feel like he's just saying, I mean she 1340 01:00:05,880 --> 01:00:09,760 Speaker 4: not for ages, so we're distant relationship. 1341 01:00:09,800 --> 01:00:12,080 Speaker 3: Basically, it's open on my end and she doesn't know 1342 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:14,840 Speaker 3: about that. I immediately warned Dee that these are the typical 1343 01:00:14,880 --> 01:00:18,440 Speaker 3: excuses that cheating husbands say, and she said she understands that, 1344 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:20,760 Speaker 3: but continues to see them. I don't want to simply 1345 01:00:20,760 --> 01:00:23,800 Speaker 3: avoid or ignore d We are actually quite close friends. 1346 01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,920 Speaker 3: After finishing university, we all move back to our hometown, 1347 01:00:27,000 --> 01:00:29,520 Speaker 3: and despite her busy work schedules, we still see each 1348 01:00:29,560 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 3: other at least twice a month. I want to have 1349 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,800 Speaker 3: an honest conversation with her about why your current relationship 1350 01:00:33,800 --> 01:00:36,760 Speaker 3: bothers me. Some people here think I'm being the judgmental 1351 01:00:36,880 --> 01:00:39,240 Speaker 3: b and I admit that I am judging her right now. 1352 01:00:39,280 --> 01:00:41,840 Speaker 3: You have a right to judge her. She's doing something bad. 1353 01:00:42,080 --> 01:00:44,520 Speaker 3: There is a difference between her like you know, sleeping 1354 01:00:44,600 --> 01:00:47,320 Speaker 3: with people. That's totally different. You shouldn't be judging her 1355 01:00:47,360 --> 01:00:51,160 Speaker 3: for that. But to judge her for doing something actually bad. 1356 01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:53,760 Speaker 3: Breaking up a marriage and a family homes fair reckon. 1357 01:00:53,920 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 3: She's homewrecking, that is a fair thing to judge her for. 1358 01:00:57,080 --> 01:00:59,680 Speaker 3: I can't turn a blind eye while her spicy sleep 1359 01:00:59,720 --> 01:01:02,400 Speaker 3: life is none of my business. This situation conflicts with 1360 01:01:02,400 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 3: my personal values. Slash life morals. Yeah, maybe that's why 1361 01:01:06,120 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 3: she felt the need to call and tell me first 1362 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:10,600 Speaker 3: about our relationship. I can't be sure, but I think 1363 01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:13,880 Speaker 3: she expected my disapproval. And we expect you to join 1364 01:01:13,960 --> 01:01:16,120 Speaker 3: us live every week to at three PMPST on YouTube. 1365 01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:18,640 Speaker 3: So just tap her profile. I honestly think maybe tell 1366 01:01:18,640 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 3: the wife. 1367 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,440 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'd would definitely more center a messenger. 1368 01:01:22,800 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 3: I think what you do is you go to D 1369 01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:26,440 Speaker 3: and you say, hey, I don't know if I can 1370 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,960 Speaker 3: continue being friends with you if you continue this behavior. 1371 01:01:29,080 --> 01:01:31,800 Speaker 3: It just is totally unaligned with what I ultimately make 1372 01:01:31,800 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 3: it feel. And also I think that you need to 1373 01:01:34,160 --> 01:01:35,680 Speaker 3: tell this wife or I will. 1374 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:36,120 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1375 01:01:36,200 --> 01:01:39,320 Speaker 3: Ultimatum, Yeah, just ultimatum, Yeah, hardcore. 1376 01:01:38,960 --> 01:01:39,920 Speaker 2: I agree with that. 1377 01:01:40,160 --> 01:01:42,440 Speaker 4: I do think the only ultimatum you can have is 1378 01:01:42,480 --> 01:01:45,880 Speaker 4: whenever someone is cheating, yes, and you're like, you have. 1379 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,040 Speaker 3: To tell where I will. I think that's a good ultimatum. 1380 01:01:48,080 --> 01:01:50,720 Speaker 3: I'm not asking our mutual friends to stop talking to her, 1381 01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:52,800 Speaker 3: but I did expect them to be more understanding of 1382 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:56,200 Speaker 3: my decision. Also, as I mentioned before, D comes from 1383 01:01:56,200 --> 01:01:58,840 Speaker 3: a very strict religious family, almost to the point of 1384 01:01:58,920 --> 01:02:02,560 Speaker 3: being abusive. Always been understanding of her decisions and actions. 1385 01:02:02,680 --> 01:02:05,200 Speaker 3: But this crosses the line of what I can accept. 1386 01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:08,040 Speaker 3: D really needs therapy, and we've all told her this 1387 01:02:08,120 --> 01:02:11,040 Speaker 3: many times, but as she said, she's not ready and 1388 01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 3: I can't force her into it. Lastly, someone suggested I 1389 01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:18,800 Speaker 3: shouldn't form his wife. The idea hadn't crossed my mind before. Okay, wow, 1390 01:02:19,000 --> 01:02:21,560 Speaker 3: I barely know anything about Emmett other than his name 1391 01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:24,720 Speaker 3: and workplace. But now I'm considering how I might find 1392 01:02:24,760 --> 01:02:27,320 Speaker 3: his wife, which I think is fair easy. Social media, 1393 01:02:27,440 --> 01:02:29,720 Speaker 3: social media social media hard. Yeah, I mean you can 1394 01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:31,840 Speaker 3: probably find on LinkedIn. You look up the workplace, you 1395 01:02:31,880 --> 01:02:34,439 Speaker 3: find his job, and then you find the last name, 1396 01:02:34,480 --> 01:02:36,800 Speaker 3: and then you go on Instagram you find his Yeah. 1397 01:02:36,760 --> 01:02:37,760 Speaker 2: We go step by step over. 1398 01:02:38,240 --> 01:02:39,960 Speaker 3: I think either the route that you could go is 1399 01:02:40,000 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 3: either talk to your friend and say, hey, you need 1400 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 3: to tell him and I don't want to be friends 1401 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:46,280 Speaker 3: with you, or you do it anonymously, go to the 1402 01:02:46,320 --> 01:02:48,360 Speaker 3: why you know, send a private message or something. 1403 01:02:48,440 --> 01:02:52,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely profect message. If you have pictures, send the pictures. Yes, 1404 01:02:52,280 --> 01:02:54,640 Speaker 4: but I don't think you do any evidence 1405 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:56,680 Speaker 3: You have, But that is the end of that story.
