I'm a veterinarian, and we met 12 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 3: at my office. She had just moved to the city 13 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 3: and brought her dog in for an ear infection. We 14 00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:38,000 Speaker 3: started talking and what should have been a fifteen minute 15 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 3: appointment turned into an hour long talking session. 16 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: Ooo. Baby. By the way, this comes from. 17 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:47,920 Speaker 3: Delated and if you want to submit your own stories, 18 00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 3: go to our slash Okay story Times. So I read it, 19 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,640 Speaker 3: so I've never been so smitten with a woman before. 20 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 3: Before Jenna, I lived the bachelor lifestyle. I was beginning 21 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 3: to think I'd stay single for even though that lifestyle 22 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 3: of nothing but casual flings is growing really old and empty. 23 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:09,480 Speaker 3: Though we know it. Jenna is a charismatic woman with 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 3: a lot of friends. Her best friend is a guy Dylan, 25 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,039 Speaker 3: she knew in her old town. I trust Jenna, but 26 00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 3: I'd be bold faced lying if I told her that 27 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,360 Speaker 3: her relationship with him doesn't bother me at all. I 28 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 3: don't get angry with her or fight about it. She's 29 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 3: reassured me that they've been friends their whole lives and 30 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 3: have never had any spicy related relationship. I'm secure and 31 00:01:33,280 --> 00:01:36,200 Speaker 3: I'm not insane, so I accept that they were friends 32 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: and have tried to buddy up with him as well. 33 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 3: He's visited the city three times. He's a cool guy. However, 34 00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:47,919 Speaker 3: he does not seem to like me much. M Jenna 35 00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 3: says he's just protective. Comes off a whole lot more 36 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: like jealousy though than protectiveness, in my opinion. Jenna just 37 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,840 Speaker 3: finished up grad school this spring, but she's had a 38 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 3: really tough time a job. We have lived together for 39 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:04,000 Speaker 3: a year and have been understanding that she can't help 40 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 3: pay rent, etcetera. 41 00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 2: Right now. 42 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 3: I'm very financially secure, all right, mister Vetch, So it 43 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 3: isn't an issue. However, I am careful to not become 44 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,240 Speaker 3: a reason for her to not get a job and 45 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:18,120 Speaker 3: have her own financial independence. I just think it's important 46 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:22,919 Speaker 3: for everyone to have this sort of independence. Agreed, Agreed, Aka, 47 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,960 Speaker 3: I don't want to pay for it, got you? I 48 00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 3: just yeah, So, without being pushy, I let her know 49 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 3: that she does need to start paying half of the 50 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 3: expenses once she secures a job. Anyway, she texted me 51 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:41,400 Speaker 3: at work on Monday to tell me she got a job. 52 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: Oh it's a job she really really wanted and had 53 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 3: to go through some pretty grueling interviews to get. I 54 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,280 Speaker 3: was so happy and proud of her that decided to 55 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:54,920 Speaker 3: leave the rest of the day at the office to 56 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 3: my staff and took off early without telling Jenna. I 57 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 3: bought her favorite boot, grabbed a bunch of Chinese take 58 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 3: out her favorite, and bought her flowers. 59 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 2: I had bought her a. 60 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 3: Nice necklace that she'd seen at a store a couple 61 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,600 Speaker 3: of weeks ago. Nothing super extravagant, but it has a 62 00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 3: shark on it, and that woman is just obsessed with 63 00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:16,720 Speaker 3: anything to do with sharks. That's cute, adorable. I'd hidden 64 00:03:16,760 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 3: it in the basement and figured i'd give it to 65 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 3: her soon, totally surprise her once she'd forgotten about seeing 66 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 3: it in the store. I got home are we seeing? 67 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:25,960 Speaker 2: Are we seeing? In a little ice? 68 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 4: You? 69 00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:26,400 Speaker 2: John? 70 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,679 Speaker 3: I really hope, I really hope I'm not seeing what 71 00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 3: I write. I want to see what I don't want 72 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:35,760 Speaker 3: to see. 73 00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 2: Who. 74 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 3: But I got home and came in the side entrance 75 00:03:40,040 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 3: to the basement so I could grab the necklace and 76 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 3: then surprise her. When I came up the basement steps 77 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,640 Speaker 3: and opened the door, I could hear her talking on 78 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:50,120 Speaker 3: the phone. 79 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 2: Okay, normally I wouldn't. 80 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: Stop and listen, but I heard her laughing uncontrollably like 81 00:03:56,880 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 3: Belly laughing. M It was pretty cute, So I figured 82 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 3: I wait for her to get off the phone before 83 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 3: I surprised her. 84 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:08,080 Speaker 1: I think we're about to see some unintentional eavesdropping about 85 00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:08,440 Speaker 1: to happen. 86 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 2: She was talking to Dylan. Hmmm, hey, laughing is not 87 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:21,040 Speaker 2: a crime.

Then I heard what they were 93 00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,719 Speaker 3: laughing about.

It's such an 155 00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: awkward thing to bring up and whatnot. So I feel, 156 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:42,320 Speaker 1: I feel, I feel for people in that perspective, but 157 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,880 Speaker 1: there are so many other and also this does not 158 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:50,080 Speaker 1: accomplish satisfying her more all this does, if anything, it's 159 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:51,319 Speaker 1: like the exact. 160 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 3: That's confident, you know, yeah, yeah, it's not gonna but 161 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 3: I but I feel like her goal isn't for them 162 00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 3: to have a better spicy sleep. 163 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 1: I think her goal is to bomb with Dylan.

Yes? 172 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 3: I think she may have heard the basement door close, 173 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 3: maybe even saw my car driving away, because she started 174 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:45,679 Speaker 3: texting me pretty quickly after I left, asking me when 175 00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 3: I was coming home. That was Monday, and I haven't 176 00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:48,559 Speaker 3: brought it up. 177 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 2: I don't know. 178 00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 3: I think I'm still processing everything. It's horribly embarrassing and hurtful, 179 00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 3: but dang, I love this girl right not saying I'm 180 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 3: going to forgive her necessarily, I just want to stress 181 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 3: how hard this whole thing is for me. I know 182 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 3: I need to bring it up to her, but how 183 00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 3: any suggestions on how to start a conversation with her. 184 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 3: I'm extremely hurt and I don't know if I can 185 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 3: forgive her for this. 186 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 2: We haven't edit. 187 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 3: We haven't edit, but right now, let us talk about 188 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 3: what we think we should do here? Is this just 189 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,199 Speaker 3: talk about it. Is this a breakup than talk or 190 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 3: a talk and then maybe break up? 191 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 2: Yeah? 192 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,400 Speaker 1: I think he has to sit her down and be like, hey, 193 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: I heard the whole conversation and that was absolutely awful 194 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 1: to have to listen to. And I feel like doodoo 195 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:43,120 Speaker 1: and maybe even just starting there, like just saying like, hey, 196 00:10:43,240 --> 00:10:45,480 Speaker 1: I heard this, it like really hurt. Yeah, you know, 197 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: and just seeing what she says I think is a 198 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: good first step and see how she responds. 199 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 3: I mean, he's obviously he said he's still in love 200 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 3: with her, So I think like spending some time before 201 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:00,480 Speaker 3: making any actions and just being like what does she 202 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,199 Speaker 3: say and how do I feel about what she says? 203 00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 2: Like let's like say, with that, you still might break up. Yeah. 204 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 3: It gives an opportunity for him to understand more about 205 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,560 Speaker 3: what's going on too. You know when we talk about 206 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,280 Speaker 3: relationship integrity, like we talk about this idea of oh, 207 00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 3: you know like yeah, maybe you could forgive, but are 208 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 3: you going to be able to trust again? And you 209 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 3: might get you might be able to get back together, 210 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,320 Speaker 3: but will the relationship be the same. Yeah, And this 211 00:11:25,400 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 3: feels like one of those things that may forever change 212 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,679 Speaker 3: that relationship. So it's like, is it is this something 213 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 3: that you want to come back to knowing that it 214 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 3: could could forever? 215 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like a double whammy. The spicy sleep life 216 00:11:36,160 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: has forever change. And then can I trust her with 217 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:40,560 Speaker 1: like very like intimate things and that she won't like 218 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 1: tell her friends to be giggling about me. So it's like, yeah, 219 00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 1: it's tough, so tough one to come back from. 220 00:11:45,720 --> 00:11:49,160 Speaker 2: Honestly, but we got an update. Wow, thanks everyone. 221 00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 3: I just wanted to add that I definitely will be 222 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 3: breaking up with Jenna.

We were pretty close and I wanted 228 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 3: to tell her the whole story. And I've never heard 229 00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 3: her so angry about anything. She knew I'd bought a 230 00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 3: ring for Jenna, I will put. 231 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: Oh, oh that makes it so much worse. 232 00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:33,680 Speaker 2: Dude, so much worse.

Oh, we got an update. 242 00:12:59,280 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 2: Wow. 243 00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,600 Speaker 3: I think we're I think we're going straight into it. 244 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 3: I I like I like that.

Do you 247 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: let me know? 248 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 4: No, you can, you can pull the Micael dear p 249 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,720 Speaker 4: two years, two years, two years. 250 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:20,840 Speaker 2: That's a long time. It's a long time. Yeah. That 251 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 2: means it'll take you two months or a year, two months, 252 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:25,559 Speaker 2: two a year to get over There we go, There 253 00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 2: we go. 254 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 3: We've got the time and rule for every year of 255 00:13:28,520 --> 00:13:32,079 Speaker 3: a relationship is at least a month. That's right, supportive 256 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 3: Reddit strangers. I stayed strong and broke up with Jenna 257 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 3: Thursday evening. 258 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:38,840 Speaker 2: Let's go. 259 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:42,319 Speaker 3: This has honestly been the most dramatic couple of days 260 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 3: of my life. I am exhausted. Things got pretty ugly 261 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 3: on her part. Oh, she was ugly to begin with 262 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:53,000 Speaker 3: on the inside. Sorry, this is so long. A lot happened. 263 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 3: At the suggestion of my friend's mother, brother and many 264 00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 3: of you, I talked to her in private but still 265 00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 3: public place. The thought behind was that someone who can 266 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:05,840 Speaker 3: be so cruel and reveal herself as a liar is 267 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:08,760 Speaker 3: potentially capable of trying to turn things around on me 268 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 3: and say that she left me because I hurt her, 269 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 3: or some other nonsense. I like to think she wouldn't 270 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 3: do something like that, but who knows, especially after everything 271 00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:20,520 Speaker 3: that has happened. Better safe than sorry. I thought about 272 00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 3: just boxing up her stuff and breaking things off with 273 00:14:22,640 --> 00:14:25,120 Speaker 3: no explanation, but it's been over two years together. I 274 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 3: decided the best thing to do is to confront her 275 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 3: calmly and then hear her out if she had an explanation. 276 00:14:30,440 --> 00:14:32,320 Speaker 3: I wanted to hear it, even if it didn't change 277 00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:34,840 Speaker 3: the decision to break up with her. So I took 278 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 3: her to a wine bar in downtown that has those 279 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,800 Speaker 3: little individual booths with half curtains. She's been sugary sweet 280 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 3: since Monday, which tells me either a felt guilty about 281 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 3: what a knucklehead she was, and B thought I might 282 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 3: have heard her or C. She just knew I was 283 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 3: acting distant and it was totally clueless as to why. 284 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 3: So she dressed up really nice, and despite everything that 285 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 3: has happened, I can admit that she looked stunning. Rats 286 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:07,400 Speaker 3: come on, man, keep it together, whole strong brother. She 287 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 3: was also very affectionate. I kept making out of sexy 288 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:15,800 Speaker 3: comments about all the things she wanted to hear, Brother, 289 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,400 Speaker 3: stay strong. 290 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:19,760 Speaker 2: Stay strong, to let her put any ranch on that 291 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:26,360 Speaker 2: baby care oday? No snacks today? Oh yeah. 292 00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: Normally, my precious little baby Carrot would have been thrilled 293 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 3: by this, but given the circumstances, it was difficult to 294 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 3: hear and act normal. I had rehearsed what I was 295 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 3: going to say to her over and over, so as 296 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 3: soon as we sat down and got our wine, I started. 297 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 3: I can't remember word for word. My adrenaline was put 298 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,800 Speaker 3: into pretty high gear, so it feels fuzzy. I basically 299 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 3: started by saying how much I've loved her, how She's 300 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:53,120 Speaker 3: the only woman that I've ever felt connected to so 301 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:56,920 Speaker 3: profoundly that I opened myself up to her completely and 302 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:57,560 Speaker 3: trusted her. 303 00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:00,400 Speaker 2: Oh, I told her that she he's the. 304 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 3: Only woman I've ever thought about marrying that I've gone 305 00:16:04,120 --> 00:16:07,000 Speaker 3: ring shopping for. I left that part out about how 306 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 3: I actually bought the ring, and then I've actually imagined 307 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:12,440 Speaker 3: having children with her in the next few years. She 308 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:14,680 Speaker 3: kept interrupting me to say oh, or to tell me 309 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 3: how much she loves me too. Then I looked her 310 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 3: and the eye and asked her point blank, why if 311 00:16:21,520 --> 00:16:24,760 Speaker 3: she loved me so much, did she horrendously make fun 312 00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 3: of me to Dylan. 313 00:16:25,720 --> 00:16:28,000 Speaker 2: Boom? There it is what she gotta say. 314 00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 3: Boom boom. Come on, I want to hear it. I 315 00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 3: have to say. The look on her face was a 316 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 3: bit satisfying. As expected. She denied it at first and 317 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 3: acted like she had no idea what I was talking about. 318 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:44,200 Speaker 3: She said Dylan knows how much he loves me and 319 00:16:44,240 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 3: that she's never made fun of me to him. I 320 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 3: kind of just looked at her and said something like, 321 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 3: come on, Jenna, we both know. 322 00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:53,400 Speaker 2: What's going on. We know what's going on. I heard 323 00:16:53,440 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 2: you you gotta drop a baby carriage joke at this point. 324 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,760 Speaker 2: That's going on. Oh yeah, dude, that would be sweet. Yeah, listen, 325 00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 2: like I know I'm not your favorite vegetable in the garden. 326 00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 2: I'm no legg plants. 327 00:17:05,000 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 1: But heystat stay together, stand strong against your tyranny. 328 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,119 Speaker 3: But she still denied it, even after I told her 329 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,920 Speaker 3: that I come home early on Monday and it hurt her. 330 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:20,199 Speaker 3: It was pretty frustrating, but I kept my cool. I 331 00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 3: just told her that she and I both know she's lying, 332 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 3: and that the things she said were unforgivable, and that 333 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 3: I couldn't wrap my mind around why she would say 334 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 3: things like that to anyone, let alone Dylan, especially because 335 00:17:34,840 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 3: she was lying just to be able to rag on me. 336 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,600 Speaker 3: Still denied and acted like I was crazy. She said 337 00:17:41,640 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 3: she loves me so much that she's not dissatisfied with 338 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:46,840 Speaker 3: her spicy sleep life. I would never say she was 339 00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 3: or complain. 340 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,159 Speaker 2: About my size. That she knows how smart and sweet 341 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:51,720 Speaker 2: I am. That's why she loves me. 342 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 3: If I hadn't heard what she said to Dylan myself, 343 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 3: I would have believed her he deserves an Oscar for 344 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:04,359 Speaker 3: that performance. Oh dude, that but that craft scares me. Bro, Yeah, dude, 345 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 3: like Oscar worthy, lying like I'm the worst liar ever. 346 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 3: I'd never lie. I never practice it, So that's maybe 347 00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:14,120 Speaker 3: why I'm so bad. But people that lie all the time, dude, 348 00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 3: they're good. They're goaded. Some commoners asked if I was 349 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 3: sure she was talking about me when I overheard her 350 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,840 Speaker 3: when she was talking about her ex boyfriend, his kraken 351 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:25,919 Speaker 3: of a wiener, he said my name when she was 352 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 3: making the comparison. I'm definitely sure that she was talking 353 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 3: about me, and that she was lying to my face 354 00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:34,399 Speaker 3: about it. I told her that I would drive us home. 355 00:18:34,840 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 3: She grabbed the essential she needed and her dog. My 356 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 3: brother and his girlfriend would be at the house too. 357 00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:42,639 Speaker 3: I wanted to make sure there were other people there, 358 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,199 Speaker 3: just to have witnesses that I let her get her 359 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,400 Speaker 3: stuff and didn't do anything aggressive or destructive. I told 360 00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 3: her I'd pack the rest of her stuff up and 361 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 3: leave it out for her to get whenever she could. 362 00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:56,919 Speaker 3: She was in total disbelief that I was actually breaking 363 00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 3: up with her. She pleaded with me, but my mind 364 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 3: was slash is made up and I wasn't budging. It 365 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:06,680 Speaker 3: was hard not to cry in front of her, though, 366 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,919 Speaker 3: when she kept saying how much she wanted to be 367 00:19:09,000 --> 00:19:11,320 Speaker 3: with me forever and that she planned to be the 368 00:19:11,320 --> 00:19:14,600 Speaker 3: mother of my children. Someday I own my house, and 369 00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,040 Speaker 3: since Jenna hasn't helped with expenses by paying rent or utilities, 370 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,880 Speaker 3: I wasn't too concerned about putting it bluntly punting her out. 371 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 3: She kept asking me what she was supposed to do 372 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 3: and where she was supposed to sleep. I told her 373 00:19:26,440 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 3: it wasn't really my problem anymore, and that she has 374 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,440 Speaker 3: plenty of friends you can stay with until she gets 375 00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 3: her own place. Basically, all the furniture and Decora's mind, 376 00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 3: she just has clothes, toilet, trees, et cetera. 377 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 2: To get out. 378 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 3: All the redecorating she did to my house was done 379 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,920 Speaker 3: on my dime. Then came the water work. 380 00:19:44,960 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 2: Here we go the multiple stages. 381 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:51,000 Speaker 3: She started crying and saying that she didn't understand how 382 00:19:51,080 --> 00:19:52,400 Speaker 3: I could do this to her. 383 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 2: She said she thought it was a nice guy. About 384 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,480 Speaker 2: a million times I told her I. 385 00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 3: Am a nice guy, which is why I didn't throw 386 00:20:00,520 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 3: her stuff out in the front lawn and change the 387 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,720 Speaker 3: locks and give her no explanation. Then I swear to you, 388 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:12,520 Speaker 3: this woman dug the knife even deeper. Okay, she's going 389 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:17,240 Speaker 3: for the hearts, going for the What else can you say, lady? 390 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 2: She said? 391 00:20:19,359 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 3: She said John, Yes, she didn't know why she said 392 00:20:23,200 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 3: those things to Dylan. She finally acknowledged it, okay, and 393 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 3: that maybe because Dylan brings out the best in her 394 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 3: and she's able to laugh about things that would normally 395 00:20:33,800 --> 00:20:34,520 Speaker 3: make her cry. 396 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 2: I guess, like my wiener, Oh no, oh, no, so bad. 397 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 2: I thought you said it was great two seconds. 398 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,600 Speaker 1: Sea you just yeah, she's a big lie dude, Like literally, 399 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 1: this lies all over the place. 400 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,760 Speaker 3: I told her that it's really sad to me if 401 00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 3: what I heard was her at her best. It was petty, 402 00:20:56,600 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 3: and usually I'm above making snide comments. But I told 403 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:02,479 Speaker 3: her that she can go back to her hometown and 404 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 3: go live with Dylan or her nine inch wiener ex boyfriend. 405 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 2: Okay, so my boy's six boy six, fine, that's good. 406 00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 2: That's a full carrot. It's a full carrot. That's a 407 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,119 Speaker 2: full carroty boy six. 408 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: He's fine, he's doing five fine, and he's fit. This 409 00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: is the full package. This is the full package right here. 410 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 1: And he's like, let me take the high road, you know, 411 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:32,879 Speaker 1: let me just tell you express exactly how I feel, 412 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:35,560 Speaker 1: work with you on moving out, and then you know, 413 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:38,120 Speaker 1: if that's it not, don't throw the stuff on the lawn. 414 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, come on, it was amazing to watch how fast 415 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 3: those tears disappeared. Apparently I'm the a hole. I didn't 416 00:21:45,800 --> 00:21:48,639 Speaker 3: know how to treat woman. I'm a loser. My wiener 417 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,480 Speaker 3: is tiny, and I'm going to be alone forever. She 418 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 3: never really loved me and I was more like a friend, 419 00:21:52,480 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 3: but she didn't want to hurt me, so she stayed 420 00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 3: with me. Makes a lot of sense. She would have 421 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 3: said no if I proposed again. I'm a loser and 422 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 3: a hole. And in case I get it the first time, 423 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 3: she meant it when she said my wiener was a 424 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 3: baby carrot. Oh oh, and I will pass away alone. 425 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 3: I told her passing her alone is preferred to passing 426 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,560 Speaker 3: away married to a woman who is cruel and doesn't 427 00:22:12,600 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 3: love her respect me, no joke. She started to scream. Oh, 428 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 3: not words, just a long, extremely loud scream. 429 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 2: Oh my god. 430 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 3: I was alarming, and she just booked it out of 431 00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:29,919 Speaker 3: there after calling me a disgusting pig. After paying the 432 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,439 Speaker 3: bill and apologizing to the waiter about the drama, I 433 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 3: left and Jenna was standing outside crying. I know what 434 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 3: she did was horrible, and all the things she said 435 00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:42,640 Speaker 3: just a few minutes earlier were horrible, but I still 436 00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 3: didn't like seeing her like that and didn't want to 437 00:22:45,040 --> 00:22:47,960 Speaker 3: just leave her on the sidewalk. I'm in New England. 438 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,840 Speaker 3: It's already pretty cold here, so I told her to 439 00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 3: let me give her a ride back to the house 440 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 3: so she could get her stuff. But she needed to 441 00:22:55,760 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 3: leave and go stay somewhere else as soon as she 442 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 3: packed a bag. Yeah, she agreed. I didn't talk at 443 00:23:00,880 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 3: all in the car, talk about an awkward ride. My 444 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 3: brother and his wife were at the house when we 445 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 3: got there, so I stayed inside. Well, Jenna got some 446 00:23:09,680 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 3: stuff together and my brother waited outside with me. That 447 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,480 Speaker 3: went pretty uneventfully, and she had a girlfriend come pick 448 00:23:15,480 --> 00:23:18,119 Speaker 3: her up. I got my keyback from her before she left. 449 00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 3: She texted me throughout the night, and the text ranges 450 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 3: from sorry to sad, too angry to really angry and 451 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 3: back again. I didn't answer any of them, and only 452 00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:31,400 Speaker 3: texted her yesterday morning to tell her that her stuff 453 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:33,719 Speaker 3: was on the porch and that she should come to 454 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 3: pick it up while I'm at work. I didn't hear 455 00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:38,600 Speaker 3: from her all day until it was almost time for 456 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 3: me to go home. There was a pretty nasty text 457 00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 3: wishing me about every ill you can wish a person. 458 00:23:44,040 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 3: I didn't answer. 459 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,280 Speaker 2: Great boom she moved. 460 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:51,879 Speaker 3: Oh no, oh well I come home, Oh to a 461 00:23:51,960 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 3: disaster zone. She smashed everything. I don't know if she 462 00:23:57,720 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 3: made a spare key at some point that I was 463 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 3: unaware of, or she knows how to pick locks. But 464 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,239 Speaker 3: she got into the house somehow and she destroyed it. 465 00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. 466 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:10,400 Speaker 3: She smashed stuff that's irreplaceable. She ripped up furniture, She 467 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 3: clogged two sinks, left the water running, She let the 468 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:17,280 Speaker 3: refrigerator open and threw food all over the kitchen. It 469 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:21,440 Speaker 3: was wrecked. The only considerate thing she did was lock 470 00:24:21,520 --> 00:24:24,159 Speaker 3: my two dogs up in the bedroom. I guess so 471 00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 3: they didn't cut themselves on glass or eat the food. 472 00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:28,920 Speaker 2: Oh my god, dude. 473 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,760 Speaker 3: Oh my god, dude, I don't understand, Like what what 474 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 3: frightens me. What frightens me is you can be in 475 00:24:37,240 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 3: a relationship with someone for two years and it's totally fine, 476 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,399 Speaker 3: and then snap they become a crazy person. 477 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, just snap. Does that not terrify you? I mean, 478 00:24:48,080 --> 00:24:53,119 Speaker 1: that is that is? That is absolutely that. How do 479 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 1: you test for that? 480 00:24:57,320 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 2: Cha? What's the crazy test? No? 481 00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,439 Speaker 3: Do something really difficult and hard together where like things 482 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,720 Speaker 3: will go wrong, yeah, travel maybe, yeah, get a dog, 483 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:08,920 Speaker 3: but they had dogs in the crazy to come out. 484 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 2: That's true. I think I'm gonna get flamed for this. 485 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 2: Here we go. 486 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: But I think if you take care of a partner 487 00:25:14,960 --> 00:25:18,520 Speaker 3: too much, it might prevent you from learning if they can, 488 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 3: like can weather difficulty. 489 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,520 Speaker 1: Right, because it's like it's the same thing of the 490 00:25:23,600 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 1: difficult scenario where it's all right, if you put yourselves 491 00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:29,160 Speaker 1: in a difficult scenario, you see yourself at your worse 492 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 1: and it's like, how do you behave and act and like. 493 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 3: Care sounds like he kind of insulated her from anything rough. 494 00:25:38,840 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 2: We got some. 495 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,160 Speaker 3: We got some more here. So I have two vehicles, 496 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,200 Speaker 3: one for everyday use and then an suv for work. 497 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 3: I use the suv for when I make house calls 498 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,680 Speaker 3: and may have to bring large or exotic animals into 499 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 3: the vehicle to transport it into the clinic. In the 500 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,159 Speaker 3: middle of the drama, I'd forgotten I'd given her a 501 00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 3: key to the suv in case she ever had had 502 00:26:00,160 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 3: an emergency and needed to drive somewhere. I went out 503 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:07,399 Speaker 3: to check the car, and she trashed the inside of it. 504 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,000 Speaker 3: She don't flower all over the inside. In addition to tomato stew. 505 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,040 Speaker 3: The stuff is just stuff. I suppose it's more of 506 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 3: the fact that she could do something so childish and 507 00:26:17,119 --> 00:26:19,160 Speaker 3: awful on top of everything else. It blows my mind. 508 00:26:19,640 --> 00:26:21,560 Speaker 3: Last weekend I took her to a play went out 509 00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,520 Speaker 3: with her and her friends. We played Monopoly one night 510 00:26:23,600 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 3: and made up our own drinking game with it. We 511 00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 3: hung out and watched Netflix Made Love several times. All right, 512 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:32,240 Speaker 3: flexless And this week in my house and vehicle are destroyed, 513 00:26:32,280 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 3: and so am I amazing how fast things change? 514 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,960 Speaker 2: Truly? Yeah, you better look alound her every once in 515 00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:42,040 Speaker 2: a while. You might miss it. Wow. 516 00:26:42,160 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 3: Wow, not my finest moment. But I was so pissed 517 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 3: off that I got right onto Costco's instant delivery and 518 00:26:51,640 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 3: ordered twenty five bag bounds and ordered five pound bags 519 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 3: of baby carrots and had them shipped to her friend's place, 520 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,720 Speaker 3: addressed to Jenna. One hundred pounds of baby carrots. They 521 00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 3: deliver within one hour. I got a slew of interesting 522 00:27:13,040 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 3: and insulting text from her that evening. Yes, it was petty, 523 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,119 Speaker 3: but the only good I have about it is that 524 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 3: it was a waste of food. Hopefully she donates them 525 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,520 Speaker 3: or cooks some of them or something. So that's that 526 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:27,080 Speaker 3: I blocked her the night after the nasty texts from 527 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 3: her kept coming. I'm feeling pretty beaten down right now, 528 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:31,399 Speaker 3: and I have cried more than I have in a 529 00:27:31,400 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 3: long time. It's obvious that I made the right choice. 530 00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:37,240 Speaker 3: Jenna is clearly not emotionally stable or mature. She really 531 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 3: is cruel, and I know I do deserve better. I've 532 00:27:40,400 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 3: spent a lot of time since Monday thinking about myself 533 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,240 Speaker 3: as a partner and trying to figure out what could 534 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 3: have led her, obviously to having some resentment or something. 535 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 3: For me, I'm going to be one hundred percent honest here. 536 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 2: I work a lot. 537 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 3: I try still to make time for people I love 538 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,760 Speaker 3: and try not to bring work home with me when 539 00:27:57,800 --> 00:28:00,479 Speaker 3: I've had a bad day, but sometimes I do. I 540 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 3: know this, Jenna and I have thought about it before, 541 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:06,200 Speaker 3: and I've really tried to pace my days a certain 542 00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:08,440 Speaker 3: way so that I can get home at a reasonable time, 543 00:28:08,680 --> 00:28:10,520 Speaker 3: and I've tried to leave bad days at work as 544 00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:13,440 Speaker 3: much as I can. However, anyone who is a VET 545 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 3: or has worked with one knows we're always on call 546 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 3: for emergencies. Sometimes we have patients that we have to 547 00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:22,840 Speaker 3: check on or stay with through the night. Time off 548 00:28:22,880 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 3: can be challenging. It's doable, but challenging. My staff is 549 00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 3: incredible and can handle most situations, but I do still 550 00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,400 Speaker 3: get a lot of calls or texts from them when 551 00:28:30,400 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 3: I'm on vacation or an off day. I'm sure there 552 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,120 Speaker 3: have been times when Jenna felt second best to my job. Well, 553 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 3: I guess I know there have been. She's told me 554 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:42,240 Speaker 3: that much in the past. I did try to make changes, 555 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:43,760 Speaker 3: but there's only so much I can do. As far 556 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 3: as I remember, I've never been purposely mean to Jenna. 557 00:28:46,800 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 3: I've had bad days and been grumpy or absent. We've 558 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 3: had our shared disagreements and fights, but nothing unhealthy or excessive. 559 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 3: I really thought we had a solid relationship and that 560 00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 3: we were both happy. 561 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:57,960 Speaker 2: I know I was. 562 00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 3: It's hard not to question myself in one or if 563 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:03,200 Speaker 3: I really am a letdown, or if I neglected her 564 00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,600 Speaker 3: at some point that she felt unloved enough to act 565 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 3: the way she did. I don't know, but I do 566 00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: know that no matter what the way she put me 567 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 3: down and the way she reacted to breaking up this 568 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:17,120 Speaker 3: way was way out of line. I didn't deserve that, 569 00:29:17,640 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 3: and that's on her, true, But you know what, each 570 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,400 Speaker 3: and every one of you freaking deserve what to listen 571 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 3: to full episodes with stories just like this, go to Spotify, 572 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 3: Apple Podcast, iHeartRadio, or your favorite podcast app and search.

You can't expect like you're the one 589 00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: that did the thing wrong, Like what are you destroying 590 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:25,760 Speaker 1: his place? 591 00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 2: And properity for the immature people do.

As far as the police report, it's 607 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,640 Speaker 3: very doubtful anything will come of it since I can't 608 00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:10,920 Speaker 3: prove it was her.

The statue statue he actually got a 684 00:35:08,360 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 2: baby carrot. Well, oh, not specifically that, just in general. 685 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 2: The statue's nice. The statue. He's a good looking man. 686 00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:20,560 Speaker 2: He is literally the perfect the proportion man. That's how 687 00:35:20,560 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 2: they made him. Ah, well, there you go, dude. 688 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: If I'm being honest, had he asked me ahead of 689 00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:27,920 Speaker 1: time or mentioned he was going to go to a 690 00:35:27,960 --> 00:35:31,560 Speaker 1: spicy dancing club but with his buddies, I would have 691 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:35,320 Speaker 1: been open to discussing it. Okay, communication could have happened. 692 00:35:35,520 --> 00:35:37,520 Speaker 1: He's been calling a few times a day to check in. 693 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: I told him that wasn't necessary, but he insisted. Late 694 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,680 Speaker 1: last night, I was temporarily locked out of our apartment 695 00:35:42,680 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 1: building while walking our dogs. I tried using the intercom buzzer, 696 00:35:45,840 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 1: which calls his phone, but it went straight to voicemail. 697 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,080 Speaker 1: Once I finally got inside, I texted him that I 698 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: was sorry to bug him, but it was me and 699 00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:53,719 Speaker 1: I made it in. 700 00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:54,120 Speaker 2: Okay. 701 00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: He immediately read the message and didn't reply, which is 702 00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: unlike him. He's left leaving her on red. I mean 703 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:04,960 Speaker 1: it can't it can't really text? Yeah, Okay, my fingers 704 00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 1: are reoccupied to experience the domemaking of real life. Dude, God, 705 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm finally gonna be a real baker. This is chef's school. 706 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:17,200 Speaker 2: Oh God. 707 00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: I asked him whether everything was okay, and again he 708 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:22,480 Speaker 1: left me on rend. This is unlike him, so I 709 00:36:22,520 --> 00:36:25,000 Speaker 1: grew a bit concerned. We share a locations and I 710 00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: wanted to make sure his phone wasn't stolen or he 711 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,239 Speaker 1: wasn't in the hospital or something. He has checked my 712 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:33,240 Speaker 1: location several times before as well, so not a president 713 00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 1: to do this. 714 00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:37,400 Speaker 2: He was at a spicy dancing club. Oh rough, yep. 715 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,440 Speaker 1: I will admit that it didn't feel great, but I 716 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:42,760 Speaker 1: was going to let it go until he got home 717 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:46,560 Speaker 1: so it wouldn't ruin his bachelor weekends. He called about 718 00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: five minutes later to make sure I was okay. He 719 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,960 Speaker 1: could tell from my voice I wasn't okay. I asked 720 00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 1: him where he was. He initially said, oh, club, and 721 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: finally admitted it was a spicy dancer club. 722 00:36:57,480 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 2: Yep, yep, there you go. 723 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,000 Speaker 1: And just just to be crystal clear, this is the 724 00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:05,080 Speaker 1: kind of spicy dancing club where the clothes disappear. 725 00:37:07,080 --> 00:37:09,720 Speaker 2: It's a magic show. Yeah, just to just to define. 726 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:14,320 Speaker 3: Our celting show you know, and close disappear and things 727 00:37:14,360 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 3: grow before your eyes. 728 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 2: He wants to be a baker and a magician. 729 00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:20,400 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, baby carrots turn into full developed carrot. 730 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:25,560 Speaker 1: Watch my engagement disappear. He promised he wasn't doing anything bad. 731 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: I explained how I found out and mentioned that I 732 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,840 Speaker 1: wish that we had talked about it beforehand. 733 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,359 Speaker 2: I wasn't mad. I didn't yell. 734 00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:35,439 Speaker 1: I was just disappointed and deflated in the moment. Once 735 00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:38,360 Speaker 1: he sensed us, he immediately got defensive and said that 736 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 1: we were both at faults. 737 00:37:40,080 --> 00:37:44,080 Speaker 3: They David's kind of your fault that I'll be. I 738 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 3: recognize its my fault, but it's also your fault. 739 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:48,239 Speaker 2: How could you let me do this? 740 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:52,400 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I mean you said, no corn. What's a 741 00:37:52,440 --> 00:37:53,360 Speaker 3: man supposed to do? 742 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:56,640 Speaker 2: I'm but a man. I have needs. 743 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:03,760 Speaker 1: I need the big is my passion getroke? 744 00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 2: Oh god? 745 00:38:05,840 --> 00:38:07,960 Speaker 1: He said it was too coincidental and I must have 746 00:38:08,040 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 1: been stalking him all weekend. 747 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:12,200 Speaker 2: Oh okay, that's that's what he's okay, my goodness. 748 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: He accused me of making up a story about getting 749 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 1: locked out. I don't want a debate about whether spicy 750 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 1: clubs are okay, I recognize I am very conservative in 751 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 1: this area. Again, I would be open to talking to 752 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 1: him had he brought it up. The only factor is 753 00:38:26,800 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: that one of his friends on the trip is a 754 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:29,800 Speaker 1: spicy club regular. 755 00:38:30,239 --> 00:38:32,040 Speaker 2: Babe. I'm just trying to help him get boys. 756 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 1: Sorry, hearing a free hot wings babe, bress me. Oh 757 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:40,960 Speaker 1: my god, yeah, babe, I didn't go for the dancers. 758 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: I went for the hot wings. That food is amazing. 759 00:38:44,080 --> 00:38:46,399 Speaker 2: Dude, and then get ready for this part. 760 00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:50,440 Speaker 1: And that friend is constantly bragging about how many spicy 761 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:51,920 Speaker 1: dancers he pays to sleep with. 762 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 2: Is that impressive? That's that's a brag. That doesn't feel 763 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,280 Speaker 2: like the flex you think, Yeah, no one will sleep 764 00:38:58,320 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 2: with me for free? 765 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: Yeah? 766 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:01,760 Speaker 2: Yeah. 767 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:03,840 Speaker 1: I feel like my fiance broke my trust and now 768 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 1: I'm afraid of what else he did. Once he started 769 00:39:06,120 --> 00:39:09,600 Speaker 1: making ridiculous accusations, I did start yelling expletives and hung 770 00:39:09,680 --> 00:39:11,560 Speaker 1: up on him. He turned off his phone and I 771 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,839 Speaker 1: haven't heard from him since. What's the best path forward here? 772 00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,520 Speaker 1: I haven't been able to sleep much at all, and 773 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:19,280 Speaker 1: I feel sick to my stomach. 774 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 2: Our wedding is in two weeks. 775 00:39:22,160 --> 00:39:25,160 Speaker 1: WHOA, and we have an update where we may get 776 00:39:25,200 --> 00:39:27,279 Speaker 1: the either the wedding or the cancelation. 777 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:28,919 Speaker 2: That's what I think is coming up here. 778 00:39:28,960 --> 00:39:31,319 Speaker 3: Well, John, there's a I feel like we've talked about 779 00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:34,000 Speaker 3: this before, and I think we're in agreement that we 780 00:39:34,120 --> 00:39:37,880 Speaker 3: kind of don't like this common trope that kind of 781 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:39,840 Speaker 3: happens in bachelor and bachelorette parties. 782 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 2: Yes, where it's like last night of freedom.

It was overwhelming. I had 807 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 1: posted this looking for some advice. I I didn't feel 808 00:41:00,600 --> 00:41:02,640 Speaker 1: like I could talk to my friends about this, as 809 00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:05,759 Speaker 1: I would be embarrassed. I know some folks probably think 810 00:41:05,800 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: I posted this to get validation. It was actually the opposite. 811 00:41:09,360 --> 00:41:11,840 Speaker 1: I was hoping I would be told I was overreacting 812 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,399 Speaker 1: so I could get out of my head and stop spiraling. 813 00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:17,120 Speaker 1: I would also like to add that if I read 814 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,200 Speaker 1: this post, or if a friend came to me with 815 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: the situation, I would have reacted similarly. Before I update, though, 816 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 1: I would like to provide some background slash context and 817 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: answer some of the questions that were brought up. It's 818 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,480 Speaker 1: a lot, so if you don't care, skip to the update. 819 00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:33,080 Speaker 1: My fans and I have been together for a bit 820 00:41:33,120 --> 00:41:36,000 Speaker 1: over three years. I had mentioned we are already in 821 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,560 Speaker 1: couple's therapy. At true, I forgot about that, and some 822 00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:41,720 Speaker 1: were questioning why that is. My fiance was previously married 823 00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: and his first wife passed away. Relationships with widower's can 824 00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:48,000 Speaker 1: be extremely difficult to navigate, so we sought help with 825 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:51,000 Speaker 1: some of the trickier nuances of ours. We also both 826 00:41:51,040 --> 00:41:53,680 Speaker 1: have individual therapists. I started seeing one about a year 827 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 1: into dating him. As I mentioned, I come from a 828 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: conservative background. I grew up in the Midwestern US, and 829 00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:01,520 Speaker 1: most of the folks around me were religious. My family 830 00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,760 Speaker 1: is not religious, but I guess some of these values 831 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 1: were imprinted. My father has never been to a spicy 832 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,160 Speaker 1: dancing club in his life. He never had corn or 833 00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,880 Speaker 1: suggestive material. When I was younger, I remember my father 834 00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:16,879 Speaker 1: telling our family at dinner he found his boss, who 835 00:42:16,880 --> 00:42:20,520 Speaker 1: was a family friend, frequented spicy dancing clubs the way. 836 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:23,000 Speaker 1: He and my mom spoke about it with disgusts that 837 00:42:23,200 --> 00:42:26,760 Speaker 1: they both equated it to infidelity. As I got older, 838 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,640 Speaker 1: I moved around the country, I started to realize how 839 00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:32,879 Speaker 1: extreme those beliefs are. I've personally struggled with a lot 840 00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,760 Speaker 1: of these thoughts. I have been to spicy dancing clubs. 841 00:42:35,920 --> 00:42:37,919 Speaker 1: I don't look down on folks who enjoy them, nor 842 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: do I look down on spicy sleep workers. It's not 843 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,080 Speaker 1: my values or how I choose to live my life, 844 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 1: but I'm sure others could say the same about me. 845 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:49,839 Speaker 1: Corn is another thing I have viewed corn solo as 846 00:42:49,880 --> 00:42:53,360 Speaker 1: well with my fiance. My issues with him and Corn 847 00:42:53,400 --> 00:42:56,640 Speaker 1: didn't arise until I realized how bad it seems to be. 848 00:42:56,920 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: About a year and a half ago, he was showing 849 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,000 Speaker 1: me something on Instagram and his for. 850 00:43:01,239 --> 00:43:04,840 Speaker 2: You page was literally all thirst traps. 851 00:43:05,360 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 3: I will say, if you are a man on Instagram, 852 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:15,200 Speaker 3: you have to actively prune your explore page to not 853 00:43:15,400 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 3: show you booties. 854 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:19,400 Speaker 2: Yes, it's just a fact of life. 855 00:43:19,560 --> 00:43:22,800 Speaker 1: I think, like any it's like, oh if you like uh, 856 00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,040 Speaker 1: oh you like racing, Oh you like whatever, they're like, oh, 857 00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 1: let's just let's just throw some bootiest booty. 858 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 2: I mean, like, there're so I would. 859 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:32,160 Speaker 3: There's a lot of other things that I would would say, like, hey, 860 00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:35,480 Speaker 3: like that's not good. The Instagram explore page, I don't 861 00:43:35,520 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 3: think is the smoking gun that you think it is. However, 862 00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:43,799 Speaker 3: I I prune my Instagram explore, I would I would 863 00:43:43,840 --> 00:43:46,399 Speaker 3: actually be down to show my Instagram explore page right. 864 00:43:46,400 --> 00:43:49,160 Speaker 2: Now, that's how confident I am do it that there 865 00:43:50,800 --> 00:43:56,440 Speaker 2: it's blurry. Oh wow, but there is what the heck? 866 00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:00,680 Speaker 3: I think I've said I'm not into stid in women 867 00:44:00,800 --> 00:44:04,040 Speaker 3: so many times that now Instagram has put me the. 868 00:44:04,040 --> 00:44:06,560 Speaker 1: Other way, the other way. It was like, this must 869 00:44:06,600 --> 00:44:09,319 Speaker 1: be the other answer. There's no other way. 870 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:13,240 Speaker 2: No, we gotta make this guy horny somehow. That's so funny. 871 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:17,160 Speaker 3: Just no, it's not a complete smoking gun, but it is. 872 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 2: It's a little bit. I think. 873 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'm just imagining in my mind's eye 874 00:44:21,920 --> 00:44:23,680 Speaker 1: what she's seeing, and I feel like there's a difference 875 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:27,239 Speaker 1: between oh, there's like a sprinkling and like like. 876 00:44:27,280 --> 00:44:31,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, eefing, yeah, and all of it combined. Yes. 877 00:44:31,520 --> 00:44:34,880 Speaker 1: And then I also noticed him looking at one on 878 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:37,360 Speaker 1: the couch once and I called him out. I worked 879 00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 1: with my individual therapist about why this bothers me. I'm 880 00:44:40,560 --> 00:44:42,759 Speaker 1: not sure if the problem got better or I just 881 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,359 Speaker 1: chose to ignore it. Cut to a few weeks ago, 882 00:44:46,640 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 1: we were on a short vacation. 883 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,040 Speaker 2: We were lying in bed. It's going on social media. 884 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:53,200 Speaker 1: There was something he had done that annoyed me, but 885 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:56,880 Speaker 1: nothing major. I was just a little on edge, spicy 886 00:44:56,920 --> 00:45:00,680 Speaker 1: sleep was inevitable. We both knew it. That was until 887 00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 1: I glanced over and watched him go to a search page, 888 00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 1: scroll and click on a thirst trap and proceed to 889 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 1: scroll through her post. So I simply said, I guess 890 00:45:09,600 --> 00:45:12,240 Speaker 1: we're not having spicy to sleep now. He got defensive 891 00:45:12,280 --> 00:45:14,560 Speaker 1: at first. It just popped up on my feed. What 892 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,880 Speaker 1: was I supposed to do? Okay, help myself. Three dots 893 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 1: not interested? Click and this man, this man know, this 894 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 1: man has been in a relationship, he knows, he knows 895 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 1: what's up. 896 00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 2: Get that. 897 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,680 Speaker 3: Get that out of my face. Come on, yeah, I 898 00:45:30,440 --> 00:45:33,800 Speaker 3: have again like that. The not interested is a powerful tool, 899 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,319 Speaker 3: very advantage if you're in a relationship, that is, are 900 00:45:37,360 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 3: struggling with like corn addiction or anything like that, like 901 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,000 Speaker 3: or if you just like do it for whatever reason, 902 00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:44,160 Speaker 3: like I don't want to look at spicy picks on 903 00:45:44,160 --> 00:45:46,719 Speaker 3: the internet anymore. Just not interested, not interested? He can 904 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 3: get it out of. 905 00:45:47,080 --> 00:45:47,720 Speaker 2: Here, delete. 906 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:49,759 Speaker 1: But I called him out and said, you clicked and 907 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:52,319 Speaker 1: scrolled with a real life woman next to you. You 908 00:45:52,360 --> 00:45:56,480 Speaker 1: could have the filtered photo instead. Have fun with the photo. 909 00:45:57,320 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 1: We spent the next therapy session going over what had happened. 910 00:45:59,880 --> 00:46:01,920 Speaker 1: He owned up to it, being one hundred percent in 911 00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:05,520 Speaker 1: the wrong, agreeing it was disrespectful, apologizing profusely, and promising 912 00:46:05,520 --> 00:46:07,839 Speaker 1: it wouldn't happen again. I use the opportunity to give 913 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 1: the therapist the context I just provided above. I guess 914 00:46:10,239 --> 00:46:12,160 Speaker 1: I feel I have to justify this for some reason. 915 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,680 Speaker 1: After a therapy session ended, I said it would probably 916 00:46:14,680 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 1: be a good idea to talk through boundaries, you know, 917 00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 1: the rest of what happened and now, ladies and gentlemen, 918 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:25,920 Speaker 1: that was just the context. That was just more background 919 00:46:25,960 --> 00:46:30,920 Speaker 1: to set the stage for the true update. Maybe, I 920 00:46:30,920 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 1: mean that's I feel like that was good context. 921 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:37,239 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, we don't always get good context, but this 922 00:46:37,400 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 3: is I feel, fully, fully educated, fully up to speed. 923 00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:43,240 Speaker 2: So now we're going to get into the juice. 924 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 1: Once he realized how upset I was, my fiance booked 925 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:49,160 Speaker 1: an earlier flight from an earlier flight home from Vegas. 926 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:50,799 Speaker 1: When I picked him up from the airport, which I 927 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: debated doing. I could tell he didn't think this was 928 00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:55,880 Speaker 1: this was as big of a deal as it was. 929 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 1: I let him know if I could postpone the wedding, 930 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 1: I would, but we can't, and if we cancel the wedding, 931 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,239 Speaker 1: We're done. So basically, I think she's saying, if I 932 00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 1: could postpone the wedding, I would, but I guess I'm 933 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:11,320 Speaker 1: guessing venues and. 934 00:47:11,160 --> 00:47:12,759 Speaker 2: Other things like it just doesn't work. 935 00:47:13,200 --> 00:47:16,120 Speaker 1: And if she decides to cancel the wedding, they're done, which, 936 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:19,920 Speaker 1: by the way, reminder, it's in two weeks. So I 937 00:47:19,960 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 1: feel like opis Opie's kind of saying like, hey, we 938 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:27,640 Speaker 1: have a two week window here to fix everything. 939 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,759 Speaker 2: Dude, that's not gonna work. It's just, yeah, that's that's 940 00:47:30,760 --> 00:47:32,560 Speaker 2: too much. That's too much. It's not gonna work. 941 00:47:32,640 --> 00:47:36,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, if it's if it's not a heck, yeah, to 942 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:38,400 Speaker 3: get married, it should be a hair or not. 943 00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 1: And also, I'm like, totally it would probably be a 944 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 1: horrendous pill to swallow, but probably doable. You just lose 945 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,719 Speaker 1: all the money and everything else, because you're gonna lose 946 00:47:47,719 --> 00:47:48,120 Speaker 1: it anyways. 947 00:47:48,120 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 2: If you're not you're not gonna have the money anyways. 948 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,319 Speaker 2: If you do the wedding, exactly, you might as well 949 00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,520 Speaker 2: just not be married to the person you shouldn't be 950 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:57,080 Speaker 2: married to. Hey, you know what's more expensive. Divorce is 951 00:47:57,160 --> 00:47:59,800 Speaker 2: very into wedding, So how about that double. 952 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:02,400 Speaker 1: So I also laid out the terms for what the 953 00:48:02,440 --> 00:48:04,920 Speaker 1: breakup would look like, and I insisted that he would 954 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 1: be the one telling our guests the reason why. And 955 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:10,040 Speaker 1: it's not because he went to a spicy club. It's 956 00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,400 Speaker 1: because he's a manipulative liar who doesn't respect me. He 957 00:48:13,480 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 1: was completely shocked in his mind. All he did was 958 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,279 Speaker 1: go to a spicy club on his bachelor party. He 959 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: tried to feign ignorance. All the other guys were married, 960 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 1: and their wives didn't care. Well, guess what, their wives 961 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:30,400 Speaker 1: ain't me? Okay, your wives ain't this girl. You're marrying me, buddy, 962 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 1: Not their wives. They're already taken for I can across 963 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 1: the pond. If you want that fish, smell God, you 964 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 1: want this fish, you gotta rule preemium, Mahi machia market, 965 00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:47,839 Speaker 1: market day price. Okay, that's me, game cut. I laid 966 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 1: out everything that he did. I even chose some quotes 967 00:48:50,080 --> 00:48:51,960 Speaker 1: from the comments on the original post. Some of you 968 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:55,520 Speaker 1: are better at articulating my feelings than me. Now I 969 00:48:55,560 --> 00:48:57,640 Speaker 1: understand what I'm about to tell you next can be 970 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:00,879 Speaker 1: a form of manipulation. He could all also very well 971 00:49:00,920 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 1: be lying. I lay it out before I explain how 972 00:49:03,760 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 1: I feel. He started to sob, not cry, but uncontrollably sob. 973 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,880 Speaker 1: I have never seen him anywhere close to that. He 974 00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:12,600 Speaker 1: didn't realize what he had done to me in our 975 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 1: relationship and so close to the wedding. 976 00:49:14,840 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 2: He said he was ashamed of himself as a man 977 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:17,880 Speaker 2: and a partner. He promised. 978 00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,600 Speaker 1: Nothing happened, not even a lap dance. He claims he 979 00:49:20,640 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 1: had never been to a spicy club. 980 00:49:22,880 --> 00:49:26,720 Speaker 2: I swear nothing happened, not even a lap dance. 981 00:49:26,920 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 1: I didn't do anything. I came for the hot wings. 982 00:49:30,640 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 1: I came for the lemon pepper. 983 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,440 Speaker 2: I swear. Uh. 984 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,640 Speaker 1: He claims it was the toxic friend. Oh, now he's toxic. 985 00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:41,839 Speaker 1: He went from bragging for paying for spicy sleep, I 986 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:44,760 Speaker 1: mentioned the original post who was pushing the spicy club, 987 00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:48,440 Speaker 1: and he had to fight him, eventually losing. He admits 988 00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,239 Speaker 1: it was wrong, Yeah, fight him to go to a 989 00:49:51,320 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 1: spicy Nancy club. 990 00:49:52,320 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 2: On your own bachelor party. Come on, come on. 991 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:57,040 Speaker 1: He admits it was wrong to accuse me of making 992 00:49:57,080 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 1: up the story about getting locked out. He was mad 993 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,440 Speaker 1: at me and turned off his phone as an fu. 994 00:50:01,760 --> 00:50:03,879 Speaker 1: He couldn't believe that I would even think he would 995 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,040 Speaker 1: be unfaithful, and so on. I'm still very much struggling. 996 00:50:07,080 --> 00:50:09,120 Speaker 1: I hate that a lot of this is around him 997 00:50:09,160 --> 00:50:11,359 Speaker 1: going to a spicy club. That's not what it is. 998 00:50:11,480 --> 00:50:14,479 Speaker 1: It's aligning, the gas lighting, the wilful disrespect. I asked 999 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,520 Speaker 1: him why he would even want to be with someone 1000 00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:19,759 Speaker 1: like me when our values are so clearly misaligned. He said, 1001 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:23,759 Speaker 1: they are aligned, Babe, We're on the same page. Your 1002 00:50:23,800 --> 00:50:27,560 Speaker 1: poison tonic says, babe. I didn't get a lap dance. 1003 00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 1: I got two lap dances. Yeahs, bab, I just let 1004 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:32,640 Speaker 1: that out. 1005 00:50:32,680 --> 00:50:34,160 Speaker 2: I was a lying babe. 1006 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:37,600 Speaker 1: I also got a grammar game on my VR headset. Okay, 1007 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:42,320 Speaker 1: I taped the right word to a lingo. He doesn't 1008 00:50:42,320 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 1: want to be the person who goes to spicy clubs, 1009 00:50:44,880 --> 00:50:48,000 Speaker 1: then don't do it. You just thought about that so simple. 1010 00:50:48,400 --> 00:50:51,399 Speaker 1: He wants to live up to my standards.

He swears they were at a big table, 1015 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,200 Speaker 1: only the toxic guy went to the back room for 1016 00:51:02,239 --> 00:51:04,320 Speaker 1: a lap dance. I had to explain to him several 1017 00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:07,160 Speaker 1: times how he was lying. I don't know what I 1018 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 1: believe in terms of who pushed who to go or 1019 00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 1: whether that was the plan. There's a lot of doubts. 1020 00:51:12,880 --> 00:51:16,040 Speaker 1: By the way, One thing that you will be never 1021 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 1: in doubt of is that you have two thousand episodes 1022 00:51:19,719 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 1: waiting for you to binge at your heart's desire. 1023 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:22,600 Speaker 2: If you go to. 1024 00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:26,239 Speaker 1: Spotify, Apple or iHeart Radio and search, Okay, storytime being 1025 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:27,920 Speaker 1: to the pod guys, it's a it's a it's a 1026 00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,600 Speaker 1: great thing too, you know it is check out.

The thing is, it's been brought up 1034 00:51:55,239 --> 00:51:59,160 Speaker 3: a lot. They're already in counseling. Yeah, I think maybe 1035 00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:02,400 Speaker 3: you can you can like really say like this is 1036 00:52:02,840 --> 00:52:04,759 Speaker 3: like you know that she's kind of said all the 1037 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 3: things like she's like, I don't know, this is like really, 1038 00:52:07,520 --> 00:52:11,719 Speaker 3: in my values, it feels like we're entering a breaking point. 1039 00:52:11,760 --> 00:52:14,480 Speaker 3: I mean, I'm down to because I don't feel like 1040 00:52:15,160 --> 00:52:19,560 Speaker 3: it's it is divorce divorce worthy.

This feels this feels like a 1043 00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 3: like a postpone or cancel marriage. But it also seems 1044 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 3: that if you cancel the marriage that it's over. 1045 00:52:31,120 --> 00:52:32,520 Speaker 2: That's what she you know. 1046 00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:36,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, if I was to lean one way, it would 1047 00:52:36,920 --> 00:52:40,879 Speaker 3: probably be to to not get married, not get married, Yeah, 1048 00:52:40,920 --> 00:52:42,399 Speaker 3: everything that entails, Oh for sure. 1049 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1050 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:46,080 Speaker 1: I think like I would say, like definitely don't get married, 1051 00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,920 Speaker 1: but maybe just like give yourself that beat just to 1052 00:52:48,920 --> 00:52:52,520 Speaker 1: you if anything, just like you know, think through everything 1053 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,720 Speaker 1: and figure out what your next move is.
