1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: Hey, this is Carly and this is your host, Riley, 2 00:00:03,040 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: your favorite Okay storytelling hosts, and we've got some great 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:06,680 Speaker 1: stories coming up from you. 4 00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:08,639 Speaker 2: But before that, we have a quick two minute break 5 00:00:08,680 --> 00:00:10,600 Speaker 2: from the sponsors that keep the show alive. 6 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,840 Speaker 1: My shampoo turned my friend's hair green. Now she's blaming me. 7 00:00:16,239 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 3: Girl, It's the shampoo, not me. 8 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: I'm a guy with a bright green mohawk. I've had 9 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,040 Speaker 1: green hair for a while. I used to have a 10 00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,279 Speaker 1: lot of hair spray to stick it up, so I 11 00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:29,520 Speaker 1: would have to wash my hair almost every day. This 12 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,320 Speaker 1: makes the green fade pretty fast. So I mix green 13 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: hair dye with my shampoo and conditioned under make the 14 00:00:35,800 --> 00:00:38,920 Speaker 1: color last longer. So this is a common thing people 15 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 1: with colored hair do. By the way, this comes from 16 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,600 Speaker 1: Froggy enthusiastic and if you want to be own stories, 17 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:45,320 Speaker 1: you know where to go. 18 00:00:45,560 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 3: I'm Riley, I'm Savannah, I'm Sophia. 19 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:51,960 Speaker 1: We're here to comments, especially about people with green hair. 20 00:00:52,600 --> 00:00:54,640 Speaker 1: You're here to comment about any other color. Can't do 21 00:00:54,680 --> 00:00:58,160 Speaker 1: it about green hair. Hope he'sayz. Anyway, it's one of 22 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: my close friends stayed at my apartment the other night. 23 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,760 Speaker 1: After a show, we went out to and she missed 24 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: her bus. In the morning, she asked if she could 25 00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:09,479 Speaker 1: use the shower. She obviously didn't have anything of hers 26 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:12,160 Speaker 1: because she hadn't planned to stay there the night of, 27 00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,280 Speaker 1: so I let her use my stuff. I showed her 28 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 1: how to use the shower and told her to use 29 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: my husband's shampoo and conditioner because mine is for my 30 00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: green hair. She said, okay. I gave her a towel, 31 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: left she took a shower. When she came out, I 32 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: heard her gasp and scream, and I asked her if 33 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: she was okay. She started screaming that her hair was green, 34 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,800 Speaker 1: and sure enough, her blonde hair had green splashes all 35 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: throughout it. I asked her why she used my shampoo 36 00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 1: and conditioner. When I told her it was for my 37 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 1: green hair, she said she thought I meant it was 38 00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 1: a good, special shampoo and I just wanted to keep 39 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,200 Speaker 1: it for myself, and that I should have specifically told 40 00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 1: her it had green dye in it. 41 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,480 Speaker 3: I honestly kind of agree. I know he said not 42 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 3: to use it because it's like for my hair, but 43 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 3: like when you say, like it's. 44 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:08,360 Speaker 1: For my hair, just oh wait a second. We got 45 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:11,840 Speaker 1: some more contexts though, for context. The bottles are pink 46 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,519 Speaker 1: and opaque, but the caps are clear and are now 47 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,320 Speaker 1: stained green. The liquid inside is also green from the dye. 48 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 1: I told her. I thought it was obvious what I meant. 49 00:02:24,800 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: But if she didn't fully understand me, she should have 50 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 1: just respected my things enough not to use them simply 51 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 1: because I told her. She did not like that. Now 52 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: she won't talk to me and is telling her other 53 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:39,080 Speaker 1: friends I'm the a hole for not telling her about 54 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: the dye. Maybe I could have been more specific. I 55 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't think I'm the a hole? Here? 56 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,960 Speaker 1: Am I the A hole? Savannah Sophia? What are we thinking? 57 00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:48,720 Speaker 1: You say? No? 58 00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 3: No, I don't think you're the a hole. I think like, ohver, 59 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,320 Speaker 3: all she should have respected you said, don't use mine, 60 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 3: use my you know, husbands or whatever, and you should 61 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 3: have just done that. And but now, okay, if I 62 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,360 Speaker 3: were to see the caps and the caps were all green, 63 00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 3: I would get the liquid inside was also green. Yes, 64 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: I would be like, okay, actually has stuff in it? Yeah, 65 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 3: keep it, so I wouldn't. 66 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: This is really going to help out my blonde hair, 67 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:16,600 Speaker 1: this green dye. 68 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,400 Speaker 4: I would understand if it was like, you know, one 69 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,160 Speaker 4: of those purple because sometimes for dyeed hair you'll use 70 00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 4: like the purple Yeah, purple shampoo. Yeah, the purple shampoo. 71 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 4: But it's clearly not what that was. 72 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't I don't think that that he is 73 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 3: the a hole in this. 74 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,600 Speaker 1: Okay, so we got an update. I know that everyone 75 00:03:38,680 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 1: says this, but man, I did not expect my previous 76 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 1: posts to blow up so much. Blah blah blah blah 77 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. Before I get into the update, i'd 78 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: like to clear a few things up. Firstly, yes I 79 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: am a guy, and yes I have a husband. This 80 00:03:55,240 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 1: is a new thing called get. If you haven't heard it, 81 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 1: I suggest looking up on Google. Secondly, a couple of 82 00:04:03,520 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: people were accusing me of the story being fake because 83 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,119 Speaker 1: I put hair dye in my shampoo and conditioner, when 84 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: apparently you're only supposed to put it in your conditioner, 85 00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: as putting dye in your shampoo doesn't do anything to 86 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:20,719 Speaker 1: maintain the color. I assure you the story is true. 87 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,720 Speaker 1: I am just an fy idiot who likes to waste 88 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: hair dye. Apparently, I posted pictures of my mohawk and 89 00:04:28,400 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 1: conditioner bottle to my profile. That's sufficient enough. Evidence for 90 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: you skeptics, it's not the husband. See that's what I thought, Shawnie. 91 00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 1: Guess that's wrong, Kelsey says two because, to be honest, 92 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,839 Speaker 1: how she not noticed the green shampoo or conditioner in 93 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,800 Speaker 1: her hand before rubbining it in her damn hair. 94 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:49,440 Speaker 3: I think I would definitely say that you are not 95 00:04:49,520 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 3: the a hole because you could clearly tell that there 96 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 3: is stuff in that bottle, and she went against your wishes. 97 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,160 Speaker 1: You know, It's okay. Not a lot of people have 98 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 1: critical thinking skills. It's it's tough for people to get that. 99 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 3: It's true. Nowadays common sense is not so common. 100 00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:08,559 Speaker 1: Oh, I'd like to think I'm on the common sense side. 101 00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:10,960 Speaker 3: I think I have common sense, but also was I 102 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 3: have fun sense, and I use my fun sense more 103 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 3: because things are fun. 104 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: Anyways, on the up date, exactly one of the comments 105 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: hit the nailt on right on the head with their prediction. 106 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 1: After a few days after the incident, my friend texted 107 00:05:25,440 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 1: me saying she was sorry for blowing up on me 108 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:30,440 Speaker 1: and it was entirely her fault. She messed up her 109 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: hair and just took it out on me because she 110 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: was upset in the moment. My prediction is she needed 111 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: to get her hair done again and wants OP to 112 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: pay for it. 113 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:39,800 Speaker 5: Mmm. 114 00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,880 Speaker 3: I hope not, because that's not It's not his fault. 115 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,400 Speaker 1: She said, I was right, she should have respected my things, 116 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: and now we're cool. I know that must be really 117 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 1: disappointed to you all. I got a lot of really 118 00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 1: harsh comments saying how she was a terrible friend and 119 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: a terrible person, and she must have mental disabilities, and 120 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: that she's stooped too stupid to be allowed to live. 121 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:07,680 Speaker 1: You guys are effing nuts, lameo. I've been wronged in 122 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: much worse ways. Stealing a little shampoo is not the 123 00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: end of the world for me. A lot of you 124 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: were curious as a how she didn't realize the shampoo 125 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 1: and conditioner was green, and I was too, so I 126 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: asked her. She said she did notice it was green, 127 00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: but thought it was like that purple shampoo that doesn't 128 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: actually turn your hair purple, It just makes it a 129 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 1: nice blonde. It turned my great grandpa's hair purple. He 130 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 1: used purple shampoo he did for his white hair, and 131 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: it turns hair purple because he didn't really do a 132 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:43,160 Speaker 1: good job of clean clearing it out. 133 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 3: Uh yeah, Well, I don't know what to say. But 134 00:06:46,279 --> 00:06:48,359 Speaker 3: now he's got cool purple hair. Yeah, now he's a 135 00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 3: cool great grandpa. 136 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: Poor guy. 137 00:06:50,440 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 3: Now he can go to West Hollywood. 138 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:57,480 Speaker 1: No he can't. This was her first time being blonde, 139 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,479 Speaker 1: so I guess a green tinted shampoo who was not 140 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: beyond her imagination. The bottle also says something about color 141 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,599 Speaker 1: protection on them, so I guess that makes sense. As 142 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:11,360 Speaker 1: for her hair, she tried using color remover to get 143 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: the green out. That kind of worked, but some spots 144 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 1: were still a little minty green. So now her hair 145 00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: is lovely royal blue color, which I personally think looks 146 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:24,160 Speaker 1: much better on her. 147 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 3: Wait say that last sentence again, sorry. 148 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: Which I personally think looks much better on her. So 149 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:35,000 Speaker 1: she went from blonde royal blue. Whoa big change. Thank 150 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: you all for listening to my story. I implored some 151 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 1: of you to be a little bit more forgiving in 152 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: the future. Stelling a little shampoo from your friend's shower 153 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: does not make you satan. 154 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna go to Riley's in a shower and 155 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 3: take a little champore.

It's just I made 164 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: this mistake a year ago and I'm living with it. 165 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 1: And that's the end of the story.

You 301 00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 4: didn't mention him saying anything. If so, you have a 302 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 4: bigger problem than just the creepy guy. This called for 303 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 4: at minimum strong direct words from your husband and needs 304 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,480 Speaker 4: to st way up and take control of this mess. 305 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:04,959 Speaker 4: And Opie says he didn't say anything in the moment, 306 00:14:05,080 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 4: as the friend was quick to slam his door and 307 00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 4: peeled out of the driveway. 308 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,640 Speaker 3: But husband is talking to him today and is. 309 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:14,600 Speaker 4: Going to bring up how upset he is to hear 310 00:14:14,720 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 4: him disrespect his wife and hopefully put a stop to this, 311 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,640 Speaker 4: but I have a feeling his friend won't care, as 312 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 4: he ignored my husband before comment three. This husband is 313 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,840 Speaker 4: weirdly weak and bizarrely submissive to this friend. I have 314 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 4: suspicions there's more to this friendship than meets the eye. 315 00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 1: Some good morning, petty Pacheta says secretly, yeah. 316 00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 4: He's obsessed. Opie says, my husband is talking to him 317 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 4: today about his behavior. He didn't have many healthy friendships 318 00:14:41,560 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 4: growing up, unfortunately, and he's a people pleaser, so it's 319 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 4: hard for him to tell people when they cross the line. 320 00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 4: But he's assured me he is telling his friend he 321 00:14:50,760 --> 00:14:53,680 Speaker 4: can't talk to his wife this way. And how weird 322 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 4: his behavior is. His friend acts like he's in love 323 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 4: with my husband. At least that's my by Get has 324 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:02,640 Speaker 4: been a very straight man and even comments on how 325 00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 4: weird his behavior is. And does this friend live close 326 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 4: by to OPI and her husband? 327 00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 3: Oh?

I'm feeling a little guilty right now, so 545 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,320 Speaker 3: maybe I'm just looking for some clarification. Let me start 546 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 3: by clarifying that we both use the term best friend 547 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 3: very loosely. She's a wonderful woman and I would go 548 00:24:37,640 --> 00:24:39,679 Speaker 3: to the ends of the earth for her if I could. 549 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 3: Let's call her Maggie. By the way, this comes from 550 00:24:44,200 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 3: Remendi Na and if you want to submit your own stories, 551 00:24:47,600 --> 00:24:50,520 Speaker 3: go to the horur slash Okay storytime subreddit. I'm Savannah, 552 00:24:50,560 --> 00:24:52,560 Speaker 3: I'm Riley, and we are here to give some good 553 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,400 Speaker 3: advice goofy, but we don't have all the answers. We'd 554 00:24:56,480 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 3: only tell you what we would do in this situation. 555 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:00,440 Speaker 3: But I would love to hear what you guys would 556 00:25:00,440 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 3: do down in the comments. As Opie says, Maggie and 557 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,960 Speaker 3: I met when I started a new job approximately four 558 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,760 Speaker 3: years ago. She was the girl who trained me, and 559 00:25:09,800 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 3: we just clicked because we were so alike. We've maintained 560 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:17,160 Speaker 3: a solid friendship this entire four years, but we only 561 00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,959 Speaker 3: ever see each other at work. We don't hang out 562 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:23,160 Speaker 3: outside of work, and text each other maybe twice a day, 563 00:25:23,240 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 3: sharing stories about our crafts or pets. Neither of us 564 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 3: are good at talking on the phone, and both of 565 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 3: us sometimes struggle with socializing, and neither of us get 566 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 3: mad at the other if we don't look at our 567 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,600 Speaker 3: phones for a few days. I say we use the 568 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,880 Speaker 3: term best friend loosely because while we don't always act 569 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:42,000 Speaker 3: like best friends, we're all we are all the other 570 00:25:42,080 --> 00:25:46,520 Speaker 3: one has now onto the problem. A few weeks ago, 571 00:25:46,560 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 3: I was having one of my episodes where I wasn't 572 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,800 Speaker 3: checking my phone pretty regularly. I had seen where she 573 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 3: had texted a few times, but had planned on getting 574 00:25:54,160 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 3: back to her later that day. About half an hour 575 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 3: after I noticed the text, there was a knock at 576 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 3: my door and it was Maggie. This was weird to me, 577 00:26:01,680 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 3: because she's only been to my house once and it 578 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:07,240 Speaker 3: was for a party we threw last year. She wasted 579 00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 3: no time and jumped right into asking me to be 580 00:26:09,720 --> 00:26:10,679 Speaker 3: her maid of honor. 581 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 1: Tomah, but you, Frank, you guys are best friends. See 582 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:14,520 Speaker 1: this is what it whin. It's weird. Just call each 583 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,080 Speaker 1: other friends best friends. You go to my house whenever 584 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: friends text me? 585 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 3: Honestly, yeah, best friends. You're shown up at my house friends. 586 00:26:22,440 --> 00:26:24,520 Speaker 3: I'm like, all right, we'll let me know that's a 587 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 3: that's good. 588 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,960 Speaker 1: All right, So I guess you guys are my best friends. 589 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:30,080 Speaker 3: I was absolutely thrilled and just hugged her. I was 590 00:26:30,119 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 3: there when she met her fiance. He is a wonderful 591 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:34,880 Speaker 3: man and she deserves everything he has to offer her. 592 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 3: I said yes, but I told her we should probably 593 00:26:37,320 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 3: discuss some details first. She said, no problem and literally 594 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 3: turned right around, got back in her car left. She 595 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 3: called me later and I told her, while I was 596 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:46,960 Speaker 3: thrilled to be her maid of honor, I wanted her 597 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:49,200 Speaker 3: to be aware that I was in no way financially 598 00:26:49,280 --> 00:26:52,240 Speaker 3: stable enough to help out with too much. I just 599 00:26:52,400 --> 00:26:55,680 Speaker 3: had my second child last year, and Emma stay at 600 00:26:55,680 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 3: home or am I just had my second child last 601 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,600 Speaker 3: year and am a new stay at home I'm on 602 00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 3: top of that, but I don't have a paying job anymore. 603 00:27:05,320 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 3: I knew I wouldn't have the money for a lot 604 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:09,040 Speaker 3: of extra things that I knew the maid of honor 605 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:12,199 Speaker 3: usually takes care of. She said she was no. She 606 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,760 Speaker 3: said that was no problem, and also asked her sister 607 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,040 Speaker 3: to be her maid of honor. She wanted to. I 608 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 3: know it's not traditional, but it's sweet. I mean, you 609 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 3: can do whatever you want in your wedding. I don't 610 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,760 Speaker 3: care about you can't conditions. Yes you can. 611 00:27:24,080 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: There's one thing you cannot do at your wedding. What 612 00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,159 Speaker 1: is Wow? Damn it. I was about to say, not 613 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:32,200 Speaker 1: get married. You can't set up a marriage knowing you're 614 00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:34,440 Speaker 1: not going to get married. Some people walk out last minute. 615 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,119 Speaker 1: But that's like, you know, oh, I can't do it. 616 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,080 Speaker 1: We can't have a can't have a marriage and not 617 00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 1: get married. 618 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,439 Speaker 3: I guess, yeah, then it's not a marriage. 619 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:41,680 Speaker 4: Oh. 620 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:44,240 Speaker 3: One thing you can't do at a wedding. 621 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:48,160 Speaker 1: I got you. You can't do everything at a wedding. 622 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:53,520 Speaker 3: I was talking about like, oh, we're bridesmaids and I 623 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:56,520 Speaker 3: and that she would be more than willing to help 624 00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 3: with everything like that. Sometime passes and they have chosen 625 00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 3: a date for this year, so they're struggling to find 626 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 3: a venue that is not booked for their date. This 627 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 3: led to looking at venues several hours away. This is 628 00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 3: not a problem, but they've chosen it to be on 629 00:28:10,080 --> 00:28:12,960 Speaker 3: a Sunday and want to rent an airbnb for the 630 00:28:12,960 --> 00:28:15,160 Speaker 3: people who have drank too much and can't go home. 631 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:17,920 Speaker 3: This is an awesome idea, but I knew right away 632 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,000 Speaker 3: I wouldn't be able to contribute the two hundred dollars 633 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 3: she's asking from the wedding party to split it evenly. 634 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: I had no intention of staying in the airbnb because 635 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,520 Speaker 3: my kids have school the next day. The plan was 636 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 3: to leave after speeches. I planned on using my tax 637 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 3: money for a nice dress for the wedding, but that's 638 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:36,480 Speaker 3: about the best I can do. She sent the message 639 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 3: in a wedding group chat, asking about the money. I 640 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 3: texted her separately and re explained that even though it's 641 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,440 Speaker 3: a great idea, I'm not going to be able to 642 00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 3: contribute to it, and that she knew that ahead of time. 643 00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:49,160 Speaker 3: She got really defensive and told me I was just 644 00:28:49,200 --> 00:28:51,719 Speaker 3: making her wedding day harder without even meaning to. That 645 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 3: made me feel so small because I love her and 646 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,440 Speaker 3: would never want to do that. I thought that by 647 00:28:56,480 --> 00:28:59,200 Speaker 3: giving her a heads up about my financial situation would help, 648 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 3: but she he really just accused me of being bad 649 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:04,640 Speaker 3: with my money. I asked her how I can be 650 00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: bad with money I don't make, and she just kind 651 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 3: of got mad and ended the conversation. I just texted 652 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 3: her and told her that while I love her dearly, 653 00:29:11,920 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 3: I feel like it's best if I stepped down as 654 00:29:14,200 --> 00:29:16,880 Speaker 3: made of honor because I obviously cannot do what she needs. 655 00:29:17,200 --> 00:29:19,240 Speaker 3: That's not her fault, but I don't feel like it's 656 00:29:19,280 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 3: exactly mine either. 657 00:29:20,360 --> 00:29:22,560 Speaker 1: And this is where they go from best friends to 658 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:27,720 Speaker 1: friends to acquaintances because friends would understand this, best friends 659 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 1: would friends would too see. 660 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 3: I would just want my friends to be there, like 661 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 3: I don't care, like if you can't afford it, if 662 00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 3: you can't afford it, you can't afford it, but like 663 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:38,600 Speaker 3: I would want you to be there, so any way possible, 664 00:29:38,640 --> 00:29:39,640 Speaker 3: I'm gonna make you be there. 665 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:43,680 Speaker 1: Yes, that's what you do. Thank you. No, don't step down. 666 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:46,240 Speaker 1: I'm dragging you to my wedding. You guys are not. 667 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:47,840 Speaker 1: I don't even think you guys are really friends. I 668 00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: just don't even understand. I get the best friend thing loosely, 669 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:54,120 Speaker 1: but come on, like, let's know, you don't different label. 670 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 3: She called me screaming and told me I was a 671 00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 3: bad friend and a piece of crap for a band 672 00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 3: her on her wedding day. So I just went off. 673 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:04,360 Speaker 3: I told her if I was a bad friend for 674 00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:06,280 Speaker 3: ruining her wedding, then she was a bad friend for 675 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 3: putting me in a compromise situation. I tried to explain 676 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 3: to her early on that this would be a problem, 677 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 3: and she insisted I take the role anyway. I ended 678 00:30:14,120 --> 00:30:16,960 Speaker 3: up hanging up first this time and just started crying 679 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,360 Speaker 3: about it because I truly hate that this happened this way. 680 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,560 Speaker 3: I wish I had never said yes and just went 681 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:23,960 Speaker 3: on about my business. I know I could be the 682 00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:25,800 Speaker 3: a hole for saying yes in the first place, but 683 00:30:25,840 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 3: I had no ill intentions and really just wanted to 684 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,480 Speaker 3: be there for my friend, even if I can't support 685 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 3: her financially. And there is an update. 686 00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: Neither of you guys are best friends because my best 687 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 1: friend once needed five hundred bucks and guess what. Guess 688 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: who came up with five hundred bucks. 689 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:41,600 Speaker 3: I have also given my friends money. 690 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:43,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what best friends do. 691 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,200 Speaker 3: I think that I don't see the thing is just 692 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: because she's not made of honor anymore. She already has 693 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 3: another maide of honor, which is her sister. Couldn't she 694 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 3: just still just come to the wedding, be guessed, Yeah, 695 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 3: be a guest like you're still you? 696 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 5: No? 697 00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 1: I agree. Do you think she's gonna still invite her 698 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:58,760 Speaker 1: as a guest who thinks she's not gonna be invited 699 00:30:58,760 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: to the wedding at all? 700 00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,200 Speaker 3: I would hope. I think she would still invite her 701 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 3: because I feel like, you know, just because she couldn't 702 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 3: afford to do all the stuff as a main honor 703 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,520 Speaker 3: doesn't mean that she doesn't care about her just me. 704 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,720 Speaker 3: She's in a weird financial situation right now. 705 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 1: And she has two kids. And guess what best friends 706 00:31:12,720 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: would do. 707 00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 3: They would be like, you are accepted any way, you 708 00:31:16,360 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 3: come anyway, and get only on to the update. 709 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:19,320 Speaker 6: Hello. 710 00:31:19,720 --> 00:31:21,720 Speaker 3: I wanted to thank everyone for their feedback about my 711 00:31:21,800 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 3: decision to drop out of my best friend's wedding. As 712 00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:25,920 Speaker 3: are made of honor, it was pretty easy to come 713 00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 3: to the conclusion that she was the a whole year. 714 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 3: But I have an update that really wasn't what any 715 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 3: of us expected. Not super exciting, but does have a 716 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 3: happy ending. A lot of you had a lot to 717 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 3: say about our friendship dynamic. Yes, we do consider each 718 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:41,920 Speaker 3: other best friends, and no we do not spend every 719 00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 3: waking moment together. People have lives and just because we 720 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,480 Speaker 3: don't center ours around each other does not mean that 721 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 3: we can't call each other that. And there seems to 722 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:51,840 Speaker 3: be a bit of confusion on how I don't have 723 00:31:51,880 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 3: any money but know her from work. Well, let me 724 00:31:54,960 --> 00:31:58,320 Speaker 3: break that down. I got Preggie, had a baby and 725 00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 3: have been spending some time away from work to heal 726 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 3: and bond with my child. Now on to the update. 727 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,520 Speaker 3: I let a few days pass because ultimately Maggie really 728 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 3: has been a great figure in my life and has 729 00:32:09,360 --> 00:32:11,880 Speaker 3: never let me down. Once I know that she has 730 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 3: been under a lot of stress. I gave her some 731 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 3: space and was hoping for an apology. I did not 732 00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:20,360 Speaker 3: get that. Instead, I got Maggie showing up on my 733 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:24,320 Speaker 3: doorstep at four am, severely intoxicated and looking like she 734 00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,400 Speaker 3: just got attacked by a rapid raccoon. 735 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:29,560 Speaker 1: Okay, now, how are you going to respond? Because this 736 00:32:29,600 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 1: will show. This is the final test to see if 737 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 1: they are friends or best friends. Maggie did a best 738 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: friend move. What are you about to do? All right? 739 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 3: I was so shocked that I just let her in 740 00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 3: and didn't say anything at first. It was a bunch 741 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 3: of small talk, like trying to figure out where she 742 00:32:46,400 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 3: had been and what happened. I just told her I'd 743 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:50,880 Speaker 3: talked to her in the morning and she ended up 744 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 3: passing out on my couch. 745 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: You know, don't like the hosting here, but all right, 746 00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:57,960 Speaker 1: I don't think you would. 747 00:32:57,720 --> 00:32:59,640 Speaker 3: Do this if one of my friends. 748 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:03,760 Speaker 1: What you would just this is the minimum, this is 749 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,080 Speaker 1: the bar. I would go about and be like, he's moderns. 750 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,520 Speaker 1: I just probably didn't offer say that he did offer it. 751 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 3: No, I definitely probably would have definitely like hosted her. 752 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,600 Speaker 3: But I would have been like, what is going on? 753 00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:18,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so they're friends. 754 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, I'd say that's friend that's friendship. I woke 755 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,120 Speaker 3: up to banging on my door and it turns out 756 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 3: it was her fiance. He ultimately was not angry, just 757 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,600 Speaker 3: scared because apparently Maggie had taken off after dinner with 758 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,640 Speaker 3: his parents. And he hadn't been able to get in 759 00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 3: touch with her. At this point. All he had said 760 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 3: was Maggie and his mother had gone into an argument, 761 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:40,440 Speaker 3: but they left before giving me any details. Later that afternoon, 762 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 3: I got a call from Maggie with an apology for 763 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 3: showing up at my door, but still no apology for 764 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 3: the airbnb situation. Ooh, Hopie holding the grunt, dude, you. 765 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:53,400 Speaker 1: Were losing the I just stopped calling to other friends. 766 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: That's not what friends do.

Do you bring up 769 00:34:01,240 --> 00:34:01,880 Speaker 1: a grudge? 770 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:03,520 Speaker 3: I mean, well, you don't think of. 771 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: Her grudge that happened three months ago, because your friend's 772 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:06,960 Speaker 1: not doing well. 773 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:09,200 Speaker 3: It wasn't three months ago. I don't know how much 774 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 3: time passed between them. 775 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:12,840 Speaker 1: A couple of days. 776 00:34:12,920 --> 00:34:15,720 Speaker 3: She said, Oh, well yeah, I mean I'm definitely letting 777 00:34:15,719 --> 00:34:18,360 Speaker 3: her and be like, explain yourself. I let it slide 778 00:34:18,480 --> 00:34:21,440 Speaker 3: and just let her rent because she very obviously needed to. 779 00:34:22,120 --> 00:34:24,520 Speaker 3: She went on about her future mother in law, let's 780 00:34:24,520 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 3: call her Karen, was driving her mad and she didn't 781 00:34:28,160 --> 00:34:30,200 Speaker 3: even know if she wanted to go through with the 782 00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 3: wedding anymore because she couldn't handle it anymore. I asked 783 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:35,319 Speaker 3: her if she just wanted to come back over and 784 00:34:35,440 --> 00:34:37,920 Speaker 3: yap it out.
