My boyfriend 13 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,600 Speaker 1: looks like his uncle, all right, Dear Stephen Shirley. I 14 00:00:39,760 --> 00:00:42,440 Speaker 1: just moved to Nashville in January, and I found a 15 00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,480 Speaker 1: nice apartment and a new boyfriend. My older coworker introduced 16 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: me to her son, who had just gotten divorced. He 17 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 1: started showing me around town, and after a few weeks 18 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: of casually going out with him, we decided to have sex. 19 00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: He needed it as much as I did, but when 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 1: he tried to come back for second I told him 21 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,680 Speaker 1: that he had to be my boyfriend first. We've been 22 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,680 Speaker 1: dating for three months, and I met some of his friends, 23 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,480 Speaker 1: his father, and his uncle. He and his uncle could 24 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:14,199 Speaker 1: be twins. They have the same hazel eyes and dimples 25 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:15,319 Speaker 1: in both cheeks. 26 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:17,559 Speaker 2: They walk and talk alike too. 27 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: I told my boyfriend that he looks more like his 28 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,640 Speaker 1: uncle than his dad, and he laughed and said he's 29 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 1: heard that his whole life. 30 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,839 Speaker 2: He told me that he. 31 00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: And his dad don't really get along, but he's very 32 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,800 Speaker 1: close to his uncle. As time went on, I told 33 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: him that I stopped hanging around his mom at work 34 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:39,279 Speaker 1: because she was asking questions about our relationship. He said 35 00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 1: that his mom needs to worry about her own crazy 36 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: love life. I did not know what it meant by 37 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 1: what he meant by that at the time, but I 38 00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: think I figured it out the other day. I ran 39 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: into his mom as I came back from lunch. She 40 00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 1: was getting out of my boyfriend's uncle's car, who happens 41 00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: to be her brother in law. I went to say hello, 42 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 1: without realizing that they were trying to avoid me. She 43 00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: asked me not to tell my boyfriend that she went 44 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: to lunch with his uncle. Since then, she's been avoiding 45 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: me at work, and my imagination is running wild. What 46 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 1: if she has been having sex with the uncle for 47 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,239 Speaker 1: years and he is my boyfriend's real daddy. What's going on? 48 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: Should I tell my boyfriend what I saw? No, because, 49 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: like he said earlier, he's been told that his whole life. 50 00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 2: Please stay out of this. 51 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 1: You just moved here. This is not your business like this. 52 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: Your boyfriend is not stupid. He's been hearing this his 53 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:37,679 Speaker 1: whole life, that he looks like his uncle. You look 54 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 1: just like your daddy. No, you look just like your uncle. Okay, 55 00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: that's what he's been hearing his whole life. He might 56 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:46,520 Speaker 1: already know the truth already. He said he and his 57 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 1: uncle are very close, and he doesn't get along with 58 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: his dad. Then when you told him his mom was 59 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: trying to get all up in your business, he said 60 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: she should worry about her own crazy love life. 61 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 2: So it looks like what you suspect is real. 62 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 1: But it's only new to you because you're the new 63 00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 1: person that just moved to Nashville and the new person 64 00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: who just start dating him. Uh, that's their family drama, 65 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: not yours. So you've cracked the case. But again, I say, 66 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: stay out of it. Okay, now you know, Now, what 67 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 1: if you tell him, then what all right? 68 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,400 Speaker 2: They already know Tommy, what you got? 69 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:27,600 Speaker 3: Oh lord god, ah, it's a hot mess.

You know. 173 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: They had sex one night and. 174 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: Then he wanted to come back for seconds, but she said, no, 175 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 1: not until you're my boyfriend. So now he's her boyfriend. 176 00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: They've been dating for three months. He introduced him, He 177 00:08:22,720 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: introduced her to his family, his friends, and he come 178 00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: to find out, looks just like his uncle. They both 179 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: have hazel eyes, they both have dimples. They walk and 180 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: talk alike too, and they get along really well. Meanwhile, 181 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:43,040 Speaker 1: the man who's supposed to be the boyfriend's dad, they 182 00:08:43,040 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: don't get along. The boyfriend and his supposed dad, they 183 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 1: do not get along. But he and his uncle, who 184 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,200 Speaker 1: looks like his twin, they get along. So the woman 185 00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: who just moved to Nashville thinks that maybe the uncle 186 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: is his daddy instead of the man he thinks it's 187 00:08:58,840 --> 00:09:01,400 Speaker 1: his daddy, and she to open up this whole can 188 00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,120 Speaker 1: of worms and tell him and let the family know 189 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: she knows and all of this. And we're just saying, no, 190 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 1: this is not your business. You just moved here. You 191 00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 1: just got to Nashville. Concentrate on something else, and leave 192 00:09:15,200 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: these people's business alone. That's basically where we are.
