1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,480 Speaker 1: I forbid my partner from contacting her ex, but we 2 00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: just got engaged and now she wants to reach out 3 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:06,840 Speaker 1: to him. 4 00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 2: Yikes, ooh, yikes. 5 00:00:10,160 --> 00:00:13,480 Speaker 1: I thirty six male, am mature and caring, but I 6 00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: have a generally low tolerance for perceived disloyalty. What is 7 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:19,240 Speaker 1: perceived disloyalty? 8 00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 2: If you think someone's been disloyal, that's true. 9 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,840 Speaker 1: My partner, thirty one female, is very compassionate and good hearted, 10 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:30,960 Speaker 1: but has anxiety, people pleasing tendencies, and a fear of abandonment. 11 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,839 Speaker 1: Not a good combo. She has been in therapy for 12 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,960 Speaker 1: years and engages in daily self work. She and I 13 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: formed a friendship five years ago. At this time, I 14 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: was single and dreaming of meeting the one, while she 15 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:47,080 Speaker 1: was in a two year long distance relationship. Although she 16 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: loves her boyfriend, her relationship was strained. She doubted if 17 00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,360 Speaker 1: he was the right partner for her. By the way, 18 00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: this comes from true airline thirteen ten on the Arslas 19 00:00:55,960 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 1: Showkay Storytime subbured it. So one year into our friendship, 20 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: we grew closer as friends and we started to develop 21 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 1: some feelings beyond friendship, but didn't express this to each 22 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 1: other nor cross any platonic boundaries, but she was still 23 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: in a relationship at this time. 24 00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,120 Speaker 2: And they expressed it. So let's say a little bit 25 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:15,800 Speaker 2: of emotional cheating. 26 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:20,040 Speaker 1: Little bit emotional cheating, Okay. Meanwhile, her relationship with her 27 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:24,480 Speaker 1: partner was deteriorating. She frequently considered leaving him, but remained 28 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 1: indecisive and conflicted, feeling guilty. Two years into our friendship, 29 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:33,479 Speaker 1: she's on the verge of ending her relationship. During this time, 30 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 1: it became increasingly clear that we had feelings for each other. 31 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: Wanting to be transparent, I expressed my feelings to her 32 00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: and learned that she felt the same. 33 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,600 Speaker 2: Then why aren't she breaking up with your boys? 34 00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: Why did you break it up? Come on? However, I 35 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: explained that I should distance myself out of respect for 36 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,240 Speaker 1: her current relationship that is good. 37 00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: Which I think is much should be. 38 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:55,720 Speaker 1: I mean, should be what the girlfriend is doing. 39 00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 2: You don't you don't want a relationship hop No. 40 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 1: Also, I mean it's like it wouldn't be good for 41 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: your relationship as she was, you know. 42 00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 2: Not even no exactly, but she's not available. 43 00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:11,079 Speaker 1: She's not available until she figures out what she wanted. 44 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: I encouraged her to take as much time as she 45 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: needed to think, decide, and heal. Surprisingly, days later, she 46 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 1: broke up with. 47 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 2: Her boyfriend Okay to maybe be with you. 48 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: I'm excited, but cautious to avoid hurting her ex. She 49 00:02:28,560 --> 00:02:32,320 Speaker 1: didn't reveal my involvement in her decision to break up, 50 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:36,800 Speaker 1: simply told him that the relationship was not working. I 51 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 1: prefer transparency, but I understood her decision. Do you think 52 00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: I feel like she do? What do you think? Do 53 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: you think she should have been honest with her ex now? X? 54 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 2: I am also a person that always likes transparency. Yeah, 55 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 2: although I'm not sure if it's like unnecessarily hurt full. 56 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, like, oh, hey, I'm feeling. 57 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,080 Speaker 2: By the way I emotionally cheated on you with this person. 58 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,320 Speaker 2: They're the reason I'm breaking up with you. Like you 59 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,800 Speaker 2: could say that honestly, you could say, hey, I just 60 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:12,839 Speaker 2: want to come clean, like this isn't working. But part 61 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 2: of the reason is on me because I've been having 62 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 2: feelings for someone. I realize that that is terrible and 63 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: I can't be in this relationship anymore, partly because of 64 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 2: the feelings that I have for that person. I'm so 65 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,800 Speaker 2: sorry that I did this to you, And yeah, but 66 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 2: I don't think we should be in a relationship anymore 67 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,839 Speaker 2: out of respect for you and also out of curiosity 68 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: of this new relationship. I actually think you could say that, Yeah, 69 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 2: I would. 70 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think it's always good to be transparent. 71 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, generally, like the rule is transparency and communication is 72 00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,800 Speaker 2: the angel thing to do. Yeah, Camas, as. 73 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: Long as you're in a safe situation. I think being 74 00:03:50,560 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: transparent about why a relationship is. 75 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 2: Ending is yeah, because it helps to both parties exactly. 76 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:59,040 Speaker 2: And I think I think that, like our general rule 77 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 2: here is on this on the show, is like if 78 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,960 Speaker 2: you are if you are fully transparent and communicate it is, 79 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 2: it's just always better. 80 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: It's always better for everyone. Shortly after slowly starting our relationship, 81 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,279 Speaker 1: my excitement was overshadowed by frequent texts and calls that 82 00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,840 Speaker 1: she was receiving from her ex, who was desperately trying 83 00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: to win her back. She told me this is happening, 84 00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:28,919 Speaker 1: but suggested she doesn't divulge all the details to spare me. 85 00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 1: I'm concerned, but trusting when I see this continuing. I 86 00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: eventually asked that she limit her contact with her ex 87 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:40,359 Speaker 1: due to their recent breakup. She found it difficult to 88 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:43,919 Speaker 1: cut off communication. Though two months into our relationship, she 89 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 1: said she felt conflicted and was considering reconciling with her 90 00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: ex and suggested a break to think things through. 91 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:57,039 Speaker 2: Wait, so breaking with recurrent relationship. 92 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,239 Speaker 1: With op that they just got in that she broke 93 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,239 Speaker 1: up with her X to get. 94 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,520 Speaker 2: Into Okay, Well, this also goes to another rule, like. 95 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 1: Don't get into a relationship and someone who is someone 96 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:08,560 Speaker 1: who just got out of one. 97 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 2: And also someone who was emotionally cheating, Like you know, 98 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,120 Speaker 2: you're you're kind of setting yourself up to have the 99 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: exact same thing happened to you, which it's happening to you, 100 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 2: Like we could have predicted this, you know. 101 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: I mean obviously it's not I mean, it sucks for 102 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:26,719 Speaker 1: you and it's not fair, but it is more common, 103 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:30,160 Speaker 1: if you know, if she's not over, more likely to happen. 104 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:32,600 Speaker 2: Well, I mean also like it shows a little bit 105 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 2: of a lack of character to develop feelings in this 106 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 2: way and break up and then not be transparent about it. 107 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 2: Like you're seeing a lot of red flags, and I 108 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: am seeing red flags in the chats. Sidy Tova says, 109 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 2: you lose them, how you get them? 110 00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 1: Yep. Two, So that this left me devastated, but I 111 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 1: supported her need for time to think. She spent three 112 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 1: months thinking Wow, during this time, we didn't communicate at 113 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: my request, as I needed to live my life. I 114 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: was deeply hurt, and she was torn by confusion. Ultimately, 115 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 1: she decided against returning to her ex and reached out 116 00:06:13,279 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: to me, wanting to resume our relationship, and apologized for 117 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 1: what had happened. Very I don't know, very like presumptive 118 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: to come back after three months and say, oh, I 119 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: figured it out. 120 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean like I feel like op shouldn't just wait. 121 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,360 Speaker 1: Around No, which it seems like Opie kind of wasn't. 122 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:34,880 Speaker 1: Was saying like, I don't want to talk to you 123 00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: during this time because I have to live my life. 124 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:40,279 Speaker 2: I don't know if I would be so available for that, 125 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,240 Speaker 2: I would not be. I would act like, you know, 126 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,200 Speaker 2: you give them one chance. 127 00:06:43,240 --> 00:06:46,800 Speaker 1: I don't know, yeah, one chat. 128 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 2: Do not make your chance to blow this opportunity. 129 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: However, she hasn't yet completely cut communication with Rex. Oh 130 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:59,839 Speaker 1: my god, I insisted that a precondition to our relationship 131 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 1: she and contact with the ex because I was hurt 132 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: and needed emotional security. She agreed and told her X 133 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:11,480 Speaker 1: she can't speak anymore. We began dating again. Things felt 134 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 1: more serious and hopeful, but I remained a bit hurt 135 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:19,280 Speaker 1: by the past. Our renewed relationship began positively, marked by happiness, 136 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:25,240 Speaker 1: quality time, and mutual affection. However, three weeks later, she's 137 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:30,600 Speaker 1: contacted by her ex, who proposed bringing over some things 138 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 1: quote unquote. She uncertain, consulted several friends in later me 139 00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: and I expressed that I'm not comfortable with this. Puzzled 140 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,560 Speaker 1: why she would consider this given our agreed upon boundary, 141 00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 1: and she informed her ex she he could not visit. Yet, 142 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: she remained concerned about hurting his feelings. 143 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 2: Oh, you should hurt his feelings. 144 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: You don't want to have to like at a certain point. 145 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 2: You can't people please. 146 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: I can't people please to that degree because you're just her, 147 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 1: your partner. Yeah, and if you can't kind of gain 148 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 1: the courage to stand you know, not even stand up 149 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: for yourself, but just like be truthful and be honest 150 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:12,520 Speaker 1: with someone, then you can't really have a relationship with 151 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: another person at that time. 152 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,920 Speaker 2: Exactly. I mean you have to actually think about who 153 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:17,560 Speaker 2: who like. 154 00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:23,240 Speaker 1: Whose feelings matter more in this situation exactly. Hopefully, she 155 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 1: informed her ex, he could not visit her, yet she 156 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: remained concerned about hurting his feelings. The day before her birthday, 157 00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 1: I treated her to a thoughtful and carefully planned celebration, 158 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,800 Speaker 1: and on her birthday a Sunday, a day she wanted 159 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: to rest. While alone in her apartment, she received a 160 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:45,600 Speaker 1: call from her ex, who is unexpectedly in her building's lobby. 161 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,439 Speaker 2: Oh, I just happen to be in the neighborhood or 162 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,240 Speaker 2: did a neighborhood in your lobby? 163 00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 1: How did he get in? Did he have the code? 164 00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 2: That is to me? Maybe she hasn't changed the code. Also, 165 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 2: rather we got to get a new light goal. 166 00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:02,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, we're huge conflicted. She chose to meet him downstairs. 167 00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:07,360 Speaker 1: During the thirty minute conversation, she accepted food that he 168 00:09:07,440 --> 00:09:10,160 Speaker 1: brought her. She teared up and shared a kind hug 169 00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: and said goodbye. That night, she consumed the food he brought. 170 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:22,320 Speaker 1: She ate it two days after her birthday. Next time 171 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 1: I see her, she told me what happened, including her 172 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,840 Speaker 1: acceptance of his food and their emotional interaction. She's like, 173 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: so you ate food. 174 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 2: You know food is the pathway to his heart. 175 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 1: I mean too, It was so good and no, I 176 00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: love him. She apologized sincerely, explaining she didn't want to 177 00:09:41,760 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: upset her ex, who had traveled two hours to see. 178 00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 2: Her grow a backbone. That's like stalking. 179 00:09:48,880 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 1: That is weird. 180 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:52,920 Speaker 2: It's weird. It's weird. You don't, Yeah, you don't. You 181 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:57,440 Speaker 2: If your ex travels two hours to see you, then 182 00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,960 Speaker 2: you're you're like you'd being stocked a little bit. 183 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,000 Speaker 1: That's a little weird. I am calm, but deeply hurt 184 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 1: by her decision to break the established boundary. She tried 185 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 1: to reassure me, saying her ex was only being kind, 186 00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: and I told her that despite my pain, I understood 187 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: that it was tough for her, but that for the 188 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: relationship to move forward, she must inform her ex about me, 189 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:24,640 Speaker 1: lock his number, and prioritize my feelings. 190 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 2: She agreed, And this is also why, like, if she 191 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: had been transparent from the beginning, he wouldn't. 192 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: Hopefully, you wouldn't have gone through all of the X 193 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: wouldn't have gone through all this because you would have 194 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: known there was someone else. 195 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 2: Transparency and communication, y'all. Parency in communication please. 196 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:44,839 Speaker 1: However, two weeks later, I am upset to find flowers 197 00:10:45,240 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 1: in a planter from her ex in her apartment, which 198 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 1: she had concealed since her birthday. She explained that she 199 00:10:52,720 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: hid the flowers to avoid hurting me and hesitated to 200 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: dispose of them. 201 00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 2: Okay, really wait, sorry, really, this is the last time 202 00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 2: I'm going to dark for a second. I hate the 203 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:05,080 Speaker 2: excuse I hit the flowers to not upset you. 204 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, I just anything of like I did this to 205 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:08,600 Speaker 1: not upset you. 206 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:12,280 Speaker 2: I lie. You're lying because you don't want to face 207 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,079 Speaker 2: the consequences of your actions. Of your actions, you don't 208 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 2: want to face the consequences of something wrong because you 209 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: did something wrong. It's not like you are sparing yourself. 210 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: You are not sparing someone else. I hate that excuse. 211 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 2: It is the worst excuse ever, stupid And again, like 212 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:31,880 Speaker 2: that's why the idea of lying to spare someone's feelings. Yes, 213 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: there's you know, there's there's like some areas that maybe 214 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: that applies. 215 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:38,840 Speaker 1: That's like if someone wears like a weird outfit and 216 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: you're like, that's a weird outfit, but you're not gonna 217 00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: tell them it's weird. 218 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 2: But I actually also like I I even if someone 219 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 2: asked that, I'm like, oh, like I like this about it. 220 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: Like I'm like I'll like say I'll still be truthful. 221 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, lie, I think.

Yeah, I like this part. 224 00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:04,000 Speaker 2: I'm just really specific it was done. 225 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,360 Speaker 1: I liked it when I was applauding at the end. 226 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm very good at applauding. 227 00:12:09,320 --> 00:12:14,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, I watched the whole thing. I really I did. 228 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: She explained that she hit the flowers, viewing them as 229 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: a living thing and a harmless gesture. Realizing the impact 230 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 1: on me, she gave the flowers to a friend. Over 231 00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:31,480 Speaker 1: the months, our bond strengthened with memorable experiences and daily affection. 232 00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 1: It's clear she deeply was or she was deeply in 233 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,840 Speaker 1: love with me, called me her soulmate, and I don't 234 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: doubt the way she feels. However, we hit a small 235 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:42,839 Speaker 1: snag when she got a text from her ex about 236 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: a shared membership they have. Mindful of our no contact rules, 237 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 1: she told me, and I suggested that she not respond, 238 00:12:51,480 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: but I left it up to her given the messages 239 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 1: business nature. She chose not to reply, but I'm still 240 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:01,000 Speaker 1: shocked to learn she hasn't blocked her as agreed. 241 00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 2: I mean, like we all saw that coming. It's not 242 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,560 Speaker 2: gonna block them, She's not gonna You're you're holding onto 243 00:13:09,559 --> 00:13:10,960 Speaker 2: something that isn't worth holding on too. 244 00:13:11,720 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: She admitted her oversight, assured me with proof that no 245 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:19,479 Speaker 1: communication ever took place since her birthday, and then promptly 246 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: blocked her ex. Finally, Finally, in our deepening relationship, we 247 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 1: discussed our shared life, including boundaries. When I asked her 248 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: how she felt about the no contact rule, she expressed 249 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,559 Speaker 1: a wish to occasionally check in on her ex infrequently 250 00:13:35,679 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 1: and with me in the room, which concerned me. I 251 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:42,000 Speaker 1: value her honesty, but I'm uncomfortable with this idea. 252 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 2: Dude. She keeps asking, She keeps asking even though she's uncomfortable. 253 00:13:46,200 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like, OHP has said multiple times, I 254 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 1: don't want you talking to your ex because you keep, 255 00:13:51,920 --> 00:13:53,839 Speaker 1: you know, pushing past our boundaries. 256 00:13:53,880 --> 00:13:57,400 Speaker 2: And the thing is, it's not necessarily bad to keep 257 00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 2: in contact with your ex. 258 00:13:58,679 --> 00:14:00,719 Speaker 1: But the thing is that are okay with that. 259 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 2: But if you say, you know what, I'm not going 260 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 2: to keep in contact with with my ex because you've 261 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,280 Speaker 2: said that makes you uncomfortable, and then you keep doing it, 262 00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 2: don't go back, then then that like you violated the 263 00:14:13,840 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 2: contract that you've agreed in exactly exactly. 264 00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 1: I valued her honesty, but was uncomfortable with this idea 265 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 1: of her checking in, feeling it underminded, undermined our established boundary, 266 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:34,240 Speaker 1: and opened up old wounds. I have repeatedly explained my perspective, 267 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,760 Speaker 1: but was frustrated by her apparent lack of consideration. While 268 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 1: I recognized that her intentions were not romantic, I'm worried. 269 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: I was worried that there was still an emotional attachment. 270 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:49,480 Speaker 1: She believed in monogamy and valued exclusivity, but she viewed 271 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 1: occasional contact with an X as a benign gesture. Which, again, 272 00:14:53,800 --> 00:14:56,840 Speaker 1: they've already established that you didn't want that happening. 273 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: And it totally could be a benign gest it could 274 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:02,800 Speaker 2: be like gesture. But but she's she's hiding exactly, she's hiding. 275 00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 2: Why are you hiding? 276 00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 1: We became engaged after a year of dating, celebrating our 277 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 1: commitment and deep love. 278 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 2: Wait, don't move a relationship forward and love over problems. Yeah, 279 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,880 Speaker 2: you can't, just like love harder when these problems exist. 280 00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:25,160 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold on to you tighter, even though you're 281 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,880 Speaker 1: literally like trying to get out of my. 282 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,680 Speaker 2: Dude, I see I see this happen where they like 283 00:15:31,760 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 2: someone like you know, they'll be cheating in a relationship 284 00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:38,520 Speaker 2: and or just like hell of fights and then like 285 00:15:38,640 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 2: people will be about to break up and I'll check 286 00:15:40,680 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 2: in and they'll be like, oh, yeah, we're getting married. 287 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: I'm like, were you not just about to end this? Relationships? 288 00:15:48,080 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: It's not a band aid. 289 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 2: It's not like you we've developed a rule. This is 290 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:55,840 Speaker 2: a golden rule. You should not get married until there's 291 00:15:55,840 --> 00:16:00,280 Speaker 2: been two years since you have thought about breaking up. 292 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,720 Speaker 1: Well, I feel like they're looking at it as these 293 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,520 Speaker 1: kind of like legal handcuffs. But it doesn't you know, 294 00:16:06,600 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: it doesn't fix any of the underlying problems of your relationship. 295 00:16:11,040 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 2: No, and now you're just gonna to be handcuffed to 296 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 2: something that, yeah, will we'll just tear you apart. 297 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: Rather than viewing marriage as a holding of hands, you're 298 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 1: being handcuffed. 299 00:16:24,560 --> 00:16:26,400 Speaker 2: Sarah White says, I bet a baby would fix it. 300 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 301 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 2: Everyone else having babies to that, having babies to that, 302 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: say up, yeah, true. True. 303 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: She has made it abundantly clear that I'm her person. However, 304 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 1: five months after the engagement, Oh god, we had a heartfelt, 305 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,960 Speaker 1: emotionally raw discussion where I shared my deep seated pain 306 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,880 Speaker 1: regarding her past interactions and boundary issues with her ex. 307 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: The following day, I apologized for this emotional outpouring, thinking 308 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: it might have been overwhelming for her. She assured me 309 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: it was okay and appreciate it, but then surprisingly asked 310 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 1: if she could contact her ex, citing feelings of guilt 311 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 1: over how the relationship ended and her lack of perseverance, which, again, 312 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:10,159 Speaker 1: we're all hur things. Those were her fault. The relationship 313 00:17:10,240 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 1: ended because she ended it and lied about it tearfully. 314 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:19,679 Speaker 1: She also reflects on her past regrets, like abandoning her 315 00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: PET a decade a decade ago, and wondering why she 316 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:29,080 Speaker 1: caused pain. I don't know. I tried to empathize, realizing 317 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,359 Speaker 1: she's coming from a place of shame, but I'm deeply 318 00:17:31,440 --> 00:17:34,119 Speaker 1: hurt that she brought up wanting to contact her ex 319 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 1: so soon after our emotional conversation. It seems like again, 320 00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: and especially after the sacred milestone that our engagement represents, 321 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: I struggle to understand her ongoing guilt and worry about 322 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:51,800 Speaker 1: a potential lingering attachment. Despite her insisting her feelings are 323 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 1: not romantic, I am left questioning whether this is a 324 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: sign of disloyalty or manifestation of her personal struggles with 325 00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: self worth. Either way, it feels incredibly painful, but I 326 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: postpone any immediate action. By the way, you can immediately 327 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,520 Speaker 1: join us live every weekday, have ThReD BMPST.

But to finish the story off, there are no 338 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:42,359 Speaker 1: further incidents for two years, and we shared many happy memories. 339 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:46,600 Speaker 1: She continues to show me daily unconditional love and affection. 340 00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 1: We have had several heartfelt conversations. She has apologized multiple times, 341 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,640 Speaker 1: showing true remorse. She expresses that she didn't fully grasp 342 00:18:56,880 --> 00:19:00,600 Speaker 1: the weight of the boundary, but now does, which is like, 343 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:02,640 Speaker 1: you know, I didn't understand it before, but like. 344 00:19:02,720 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 2: Okay, so at least it's been okay for two years 345 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 2: hopefully okay. 346 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: However, I feel changed, often relapsing into doubt and emotional withdrawal, 347 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 1: haunted by the instability of the first two years of 348 00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 1: our relationship. Was there any point where she crossed an 349 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:22,480 Speaker 1: unforgivable line in your eyes? Or would you move on 350 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 1: from this? Considering that she never acted maliciously, has been remorseful, 351 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 1: and considering that transitioning from one relationship to another so 352 00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,560 Speaker 1: quickly is usually messy. 353 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 2: I mean, I think there are If I was in 354 00:19:38,960 --> 00:19:41,439 Speaker 2: this relationship, there was a lot of red flags that 355 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 2: probably would. 356 00:19:42,280 --> 00:19:44,320 Speaker 1: Have I would not have progressed. 357 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:45,680 Speaker 2: I would not have progressed. 358 00:19:46,359 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: I mean, you've pushed past it. 359 00:19:48,680 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 2: It has been working for two years. 360 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:51,120 Speaker 3: I think. 361 00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:53,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. I think if it's been okay for two years, 362 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 1: then it seems like you pushed past it. 363 00:19:58,040 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 2: You pushed past it. 364 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: She has not done anything irredeemable. No, but she she 365 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 1: did stuff that like if I were in that situation, 366 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:07,239 Speaker 1: I probably would have broken up. 367 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, But I mean, now you've had like enough momentum 368 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:14,080 Speaker 2: in the relationship, maybe it's okay. I'm hoping that it 369 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:18,200 Speaker 2: continues to be good. Yeah, But again, like the whole 370 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 2: first part of the story until like what the last paragraph, 371 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,640 Speaker 2: I'm like, break up? 372 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:25,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, I guess after two years, you know, like a 373 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:26,920 Speaker 1: couple of years down the line, if she's still asking 374 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,479 Speaker 1: to reach out to her X. Also, I don't know 375 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: if it was said before, but I'm pretty sure that 376 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:36,840 Speaker 1: it said somewhere that they were only together for three. 377 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:38,960 Speaker 2: Months before what the x. 378 00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:40,760 Speaker 1: X? 379 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, really only three months I. 380 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:47,080 Speaker 1: Believe, So unless I'm making that up, yeah, I am, 381 00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: which is like not. 382 00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 2: That long to be asking for that for that long. Yeah, 383 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 2: but I mean it's I guess maybe it was only 384 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,280 Speaker 2: a year of her asking to be close to him. 385 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,600 Speaker 1: Two years, he said, the first two years of our relationship. 386 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: Yeah right, I mean, let us know what you think. 387 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,800 Speaker 2: I think the question is it was really bad, but 388 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 2: the last two years of the relationship have been okay. 389 00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 2: I mean, do you just at this point where op is, 390 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 2: do you keep going? Would you break up? Knowing what 391 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 2: we know now that the last two years have been okay, 392 00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 2: let us know in the comments, let us know in 393 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 2: the chat.
