You know, you guys can 48 00:02:11,840 --> 00:02:13,799 Speaker 2: go out and do your thing well while he's out 49 00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 2: with his friends, and I don't know, maybe. 50 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:17,400 Speaker 1: If they talk about it. 51 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:21,840 Speaker 2: Well yeah, but if they if they like you, then 52 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 2: they're going to tell his friends that they like you. 53 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,280 Speaker 2: And then that probably is going to not that they 54 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:28,280 Speaker 2: should have a vote, but come on, our friends do 55 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 2: kind of have a vote. Like it's it's a miserable 56 00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:32,560 Speaker 2: situation to be dating someone who no one else likes. 57 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,399 Speaker 2: So I would think that that would be a good thing. 58 00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: The only part of this that I can commiserate with. 59 00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: While I would never tell anyone they can't do it 60 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 2: is it is difficult when you bring the outside opinions 61 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: of friends from the group, chatter from girls side or 62 00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:50,400 Speaker 2: whatever into your relationship in that I don't really care 63 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,840 Speaker 2: what your friends think about your version of the story 64 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 2: that you told them about the fight that we had. 65 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 1: Oh you know, I've been a relationship before. 66 00:02:57,960 --> 00:02:59,800 Speaker 2: It was like, well, so and so says that you know, 67 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 2: I should see this and that you should do that 68 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:04,320 Speaker 2: and whatever. And it's like, okay, but so and so 69 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:06,480 Speaker 2: only heard your side of the story, and so and 70 00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:09,120 Speaker 2: so is not part of this relationship. And so and 71 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 2: so is not in this, you know what I mean. 72 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,839 Speaker 2: So it's like at that point, I understand, but that's 73 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: his own insecurity. He can't tell you that you cannot 74 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,840 Speaker 2: communicate with these people like you. That's controlling. 75 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 3: You can't do that it's really weird, Like it's just 76 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 3: it's really weird, Like we didn't have these rules before, 77 00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 3: so it's like everything was sort of fine, Like I 78 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 3: even met some of his friends, but now we're starting 79 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 3: to like see them like a second time. So that's 80 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 3: why he, like, I think it came out of the 81 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 3: fact that his friend's girlfriend and I like kind of 82 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:42,160 Speaker 3: hit it off, like we were good for you know, 83 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 3: and we like we follow each other now on Instagram. 84 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,680 Speaker 1: I don't know why that's the problem for him, and 85 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 1: I don't know how. I don't know why he's threatened 86 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: by that. 87 00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 2: Again, the only thing I can see here is is 88 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,560 Speaker 2: that he's been in a relationship like many of us have, 89 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 2: where you know, the friends inject themselves or you allow 90 00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: the friends to you inject the friends in your relationship 91 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: to where it's like, but yeah, this is between us, 92 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 2: you know, and it's like I don't get to talk 93 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 2: to them about what my side of. 94 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 1: The story is. 95 00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 2: So why are we acting like your perspective is gospel 96 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: and like their perspective is the direction? You know what 97 00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the only part of this that I 98 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:17,599 Speaker 2: can see being an issue. But we haven't even gotten 99 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:19,560 Speaker 2: that far yet, or have we have you done that? 100 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 2: Have you have you done the thing where you're like, well, 101 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 2: Stacy says that you should be doing this and that 102 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 2: and the other thing, have you done that? 103 00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 3: Well? No, because we really haven't had any issues with 104 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,680 Speaker 3: this ultimatum. And now it's like, oh, well now, so 105 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 3: really you're the first conversation I've had about it. 106 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, you don't talk about it, don't talk to the 107 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 2: relationship about don't talk about your relationship to your friends 108 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:43,520 Speaker 2: or his friend's girlfriends. 109 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:46,440 Speaker 1: But certainly call the radio station talk about it. 110 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 2: He didn't testify, No, No, he didn't eight five five 111 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 2: five one three five.

They I think my 125 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,760 Speaker 2: friends would know that their wives weren't going to talk. 126 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 2: If they thought their wives were going to tattle on me, 127 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: then they wouldn't tattle on me themselves. Like that's the 128 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:37,719 Speaker 2: situation between you and your friends and keeping your secrets. 129 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 2: This to me is highly controlling. And again, I'll say 130 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:43,120 Speaker 2: one more time, the only issue I have is when 131 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 2: people bring outside factors into your relationship is not fair 132 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 2: because again, the only people who really know what's going 133 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: on in the relationship are me and you, and I 134 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,960 Speaker 2: don't really care what someone thinks about what's happening in 135 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 2: our relationship based on the story you told them, because 136 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: that is your side of the story. 137 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 6: When you tell people like okay, let's just say you 138 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,400 Speaker 6: talk to your friends right about your issues in your 139 00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,480 Speaker 6: marriage relationship, like you don't tell them like even the 140 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:08,280 Speaker 6: wrongs that you do. 141 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,760 Speaker 2: Of course I do, but I don't think everybody does. 142 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,240 Speaker 2: I feel like most people when they venture their close friends, 143 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:15,920 Speaker 2: they're telling them their side of the story. And I 144 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 2: don't know that I necessarily always trust that someone's going 145 00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: to be like and here's the thing I did that 146 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 2: where I really screwed up, because you should because if 147 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: you do that, then that person's going to tell you 148 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: that you were wrong. And then, well, I guess it's 149 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 2: for some people that's a real friend. Well I agree, 150 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:35,240 Speaker 2: but I have not always found that people are being 151 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 2: as transparent as they could be because they're going to 152 00:06:37,720 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: their friends looking for them to commiserate with them, right, 153 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,560 Speaker 2: you know, to empathize with them. 154 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,599 Speaker 6: Like another thing jew is that you mentioned like he 155 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 6: doesn't want to be mentioned in the group chat, right, 156 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 6: I want to know, like to what context?

He doesn't want that out there, like 159 00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 6: because you know that that's into information that like some 160 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 6: people just don't want to share about in their relationship. 161 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: That's fine, I respect it. Or is it like all 162 00:06:58,720 --> 00:06:59,720 Speaker 1: we got into a fight yesterday? 163 00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 7: Hate it? 164 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 6: Watch the dishes?

No, 173 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 2: because he could very easily say to you, Hey, look, 174 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,360 Speaker 2: in my past relationship, I felt like I was dating 175 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,600 Speaker 2: a group because I've been in that relationship before. I've 176 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: dated somewhere where I feel like I'm dating seven people 177 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 2: and I'm like, but I'm not. 178 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 1: I'm dating you, you know what I mean. And so 179 00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:31,239 Speaker 1: I don't. 180 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: Necessarily care what the other six people think because well, 181 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 2: they're not in bed with us, unless I'd like to 182 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,760 Speaker 2: be in bed with us, and then we can involve 183 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 2: them if you. But I agree, I think there's something 184 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: very efficient going on here. I think there's something going 185 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:47,320 Speaker 2: on that that he's insecure about or hiding or something. 186 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 2: And even if it's none of that, it's just downright controlling. 187 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean it came out of nowhere really like 188 00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:57,960 Speaker 3: it was like we were. It was the next conversation 189 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,480 Speaker 3: after we talked about going exclusive. 190 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 9: So yeah, in my experience, if someone's worried about being 191 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:05,240 Speaker 9: talked about. 192 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: It's because there's a reason to be. Yeah, people need 193 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: their friendships. 194 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 9: You can't just only keep everything in between your relationship. 195 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 1: It's not healthy. 196 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 9: I've only ever seen people be worried about that if 197 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 9: they they have a reason to make. 198 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, someone just texts it to form of isolation. Yeah, 199 00:08:20,560 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 2: he wants you, he wants you in his little silo. Yes, 200 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,480 Speaker 2: and he doesn't want you communicating for some reason. It's 201 00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 2: not Yeah. Yeah, it's toxic.

And like with that, 347 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 7: when she gave the example, I was like, well, maybe 348 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 7: maybe something happened with somebody in that group, the little 349 00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:30,040 Speaker 7: friend group, and he doesn't want that to come out 350 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 7: because something happened in the past. 351 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:32,240 Speaker 1: Well that could be too. 352 00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 7: Either way, it's negative. Yeah, I just feel like it's 353 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 7: a whole negative situation. 354 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree with that.

We got we got doctor Nick 357 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,520 Speaker 2: over here, doctor Nick is here. 358 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 10: Hi, not a doctor by a massive degree in Council 359 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 10: of psychology. 360 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, close enough to a doctor for this show. 361 00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:56,080 Speaker 2: Honestly, as far as I'm concidered, you're the foremost expert 362 00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:56,600 Speaker 2: in this topic. 363 00:14:56,640 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: So what do you want to say? 364 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:00,720 Speaker 10: Yeah, so I heard you know, kind playing both sides 365 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 10: of the situation and we could all look at the 366 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:07,080 Speaker 10: aspect of her. You know, it is a controlling thing. 367 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 10: I totally agree with that. If this is worth salvaging, 368 00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:12,960 Speaker 10: I would look into possibly go into therapy and seeing 369 00:15:12,960 --> 00:15:16,480 Speaker 10: if these insecurities are due to other things, such as 370 00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:20,840 Speaker 10: early developmental engagements that he had growing up, maybe with 371 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:25,040 Speaker 10: other people. That's something that's worth diving into, because I 372 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 10: heard another listener say that it's only going to get worse, 373 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,840 Speaker 10: and it's just like having your car and writing it 374 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 10: with no oil, you know, if you don't check everything 375 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,600 Speaker 10: and make sure that everything is working properly. 376 00:15:34,680 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's gonna get worse. Yeah. 377 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 2: And I mean, look again, I'm only playing the other 378 00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 2: side of that. I don't I don't agree with what 379 00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:42,120 Speaker 2: he's doing at all. I think it's a problem. I 380 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: think she should go, but. 381 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: I don't know. 382 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe he doesn't think she's an accountable, honest person 383 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 2: and doesn't think that, you know, she's she would go 384 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 2: to her friends with accurate information or ask, you know, 385 00:15:55,640 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 2: give them the whole story. If he thinks that she's 386 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 2: you know, if she thinks she's if he thinks he's 387 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,200 Speaker 2: a narcissister, she has the issue, then why is he 388 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 2: dating her anyway? 389 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like, So, I don't think 390 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 1: that's it exactly. 391 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,360 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think there has to be some early deep 392 00:16:08,400 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 10: dives into what's actually going on. And I do think 393 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 10: it's wrong to have isolation, of course, because we're creatures 394 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:16,840 Speaker 10: of habit. We need to be with our friends and 395 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 10: we need to be able to engage. And when you 396 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 10: take that away from them, they're going to resent that 397 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 10: person too. 398 00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 2: And you need to trust that someone's going to be accountable. 399 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:26,640 Speaker 2: You need to trust that they're going to take information 400 00:16:26,680 --> 00:16:28,680 Speaker 2: of all different kinds from the outside, come back to 401 00:16:28,680 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 2: what they know about you, and and act accordingly. And again, 402 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 2: So if he thinks that she has the problem, or 403 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 2: if he thinks that she can't be trusted, then this 404 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 2: relationship won't work anyway. So what difference is a mattera 405 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:42,760 Speaker 2: look at that, Nick, We figured it out. We solve 406 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 2: this one's problems. To go dump his ass and it's 407 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 2: all good. 408 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:47,040 Speaker 1: Thank you, Nick. 409 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:48,600 Speaker 7: Welcome. 410 00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: I just upgraded you to PhD.
