Speaker 1: Hihart podcasts, Heem More Kiss podcast playlist and listen live
Speaker 1: on the Free iHeart app.
Speaker 2: Laura, you've been through some breakups in your time, mate,
Speaker 2: Haven't I ever more than anyone I know actually settled down?
Speaker 3: No, but you that's not a bad thing. You dated
Speaker 3: a lot. Yeah, I kissed a lot of frogs to
Speaker 3: find my prince.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you don't have to be defensive about That's
Speaker 2: not a bad thing.
Speaker 3: I couldn't get a boyfriend. That was my problem. Some
Speaker 3: of them are nice and were nice.
Speaker 1: Some of them were absolutely horrible and useless turds.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Well, in any of those breakups, did they ever ask
Speaker 2: for anything back? Like, you know, when you split up,
Speaker 2: you might've lived together. Whatever you break up, did you
Speaker 2: ever ask them for anything back? Or did they have
Speaker 2: ask you for anything back?
Speaker 1: I was always the person that walked away from the
Speaker 1: relationship and didn't want anything from it. So, like I remember,
Speaker 1: I broke up with one of I did the breaking
Speaker 1: up as well, so I think I felt a bit guilty.
Speaker 1: We've been together for a few years, we had furniture together,
Speaker 1: we lived together, and I remember when I broke up
Speaker 1: with him, I was like, do you know what you
Speaker 1: keep everything, take nothing because.
Speaker 3: I felt so guilty.
Speaker 1: However, I did go through one breakup and I took
Speaker 1: his credit card details and I may have taken some money,
Speaker 1: but that's because he owed me money.
Speaker 3: And there's a big backstory to that one. And I
Speaker 3: think I would have won if it had gone to court.
Speaker 3: I think it'll be fun. You would not take him
Speaker 3: to court. Ten years statute limitations, whatever it's called. You
Speaker 3: can't see me now, haha. That also doesn't exist.
Speaker 2: Laura's on so many criminal things and she just goes
Speaker 2: to spend ten years.
Speaker 3: No, Okay.
Speaker 1: The backstory to this is this dude he crashed my car.
Speaker 1: We've been together for quite a few years. Because we
Speaker 1: were together, I was like, don't worry about paying anything.
Speaker 1: I'll just pay it. And then two weeks later I
Speaker 1: found out he was cheating on me. So I was like,
Speaker 1: you can pay for my car, and he refused to,
Speaker 1: so I just adducted it from his credit card through
Speaker 1: my business.
Speaker 3: The end.
Speaker 2: Well, the reason I ask is, I mean, that's pretty bad,
Speaker 2: but I think this is worse. This happened back in
Speaker 2: two thousand and six, but it's making the rounds again,
Speaker 2: so it's like, it's quite an old story, but there's
Speaker 2: this couple in the US that were married for a
Speaker 2: really long time and the wife unfortunately got really sick.
Speaker 2: She needed kidney transplants, both kidneys, and she did the
Speaker 2: transplants and they didn't work and devastating.
Speaker 3: It was devastating.
Speaker 2: But their marriage was like really under stress because of
Speaker 2: the pressure of that, and he was looking after her
Speaker 2: and she was unwell and whatever else. So the husband
Speaker 2: donated his kidney to his wife to literally save her
Speaker 2: life and save the marriage, and amazingly it worked. Fast
Speaker 2: forward a little bit and he finds out that she's
Speaker 2: been cheating on him, so he gave up a kidney
Speaker 2: and she had been cheating.
Speaker 3: Oh so then it was rough. Yeah, so in the divorce,
Speaker 3: didn't want anything else.
Speaker 1: He asked for the kidney back because you know, no,
Speaker 1: that's that seems wildly unethical.
Speaker 3: You know that's going to kill her.
Speaker 1: I understand that cheating does make you feel a bit
Speaker 1: different about people, Like I wanted my money after I
Speaker 1: found out my ex was cheating on me, But if
Speaker 1: I'd given him a kidney, I don't want death.
Speaker 3: Well, especially because she only had one. Only one works.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you come back, did this go through court? Like,
Speaker 1: no one, no normal human is going to look at
Speaker 1: that situation and be like, yep, cheating divorce. I guess
Speaker 1: you should die for that.
Speaker 3: Give an organ? So what?
Speaker 2: He obviously knew that no one was going to award
Speaker 2: him a kidney, so he said, either you give me
Speaker 2: the kidney or the value of the kidney, and he
Speaker 2: put the value at one point five million US dollars,
Speaker 2: which I don't even know how where you pull that from,
Speaker 2: but interestingly, or actually probably pretty obviously, the court ruled
Speaker 2: that any organ may not be exchanged for value, but.
Speaker 3: Also putting real tickets on yourself. If you think one.
Speaker 1: Kidney's one point five million, how much do you think
Speaker 1: your total self is worth?
Speaker 3: How do he break it down organ by organ.
Speaker 1: And put an individual pick the number from. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think if you're going to give your organs to someone,
Speaker 1: it has to be an ultruistic gift that knowing that
Speaker 1: even if the relationship breaks down or whatever happens there,
Speaker 1: you've done it because at.
Speaker 3: One time you cared about them.
Speaker 1: But it is a bit rich to take a kidney
Speaker 1: and also be having an affair at the same time,
Speaker 1: Like that's pretty bad.
Speaker 3: It wasn't simultaneous. She gave it eighteen months and then
Speaker 3: she had the affair.
Speaker 2: She got better and then she felt well enough front affair. Hey,
Speaker 2: we've got to live on the phone. Hey live What
Speaker 2: did your ex ask for back?
Speaker 4: My ex asked for a bottle of oyster sauce that
Speaker 4: I threw out when we were moving out, and then
Speaker 4: when I wouldn't give it back to him, he asked
Speaker 4: me to transfer seven dollars to cover it.
Speaker 3: No brand was so attached to it.
Speaker 4: Really running the mill, like I don't know I am
Speaker 4: or whatever and probably can't say brand names, but yeah,
Speaker 4: literally just running the mill oyster sauce.
Speaker 3: Hang on.
Speaker 2: To be clear, he asked for nothing else, none of
Speaker 2: the furniture, the white goods, nothing like sentimental.
Speaker 3: He just wanted the oyster sauce.
Speaker 4: Well, to be fair, he did actually want something else back.
Speaker 4: He also asked for his packet of Stato sticks.
Speaker 3: He's got a problem. Do you know what the screams
Speaker 3: to me of.
Speaker 1: You know, when someone will just find any excuse to
Speaker 1: try and reach out and get back in touch with
Speaker 1: their ex, like he's lost the plot.
Speaker 2: Because this is all this does is double down on
Speaker 2: why the breakup was.
Speaker 3: This is but it's not rational.
Speaker 1: It's just they're just so desperate to get some sort
Speaker 1: of reply that they write crazy stuff.
Speaker 3: Did you transfer them, you ben Mom?
Speaker 4: To be fair, I did because I was like, I
Speaker 4: can't be bothered with this, I don't want to see
Speaker 4: you again. I'm going to keep your oyster sauce and
Speaker 4: I made a very good meal out of it.
Speaker 1: Well done to him.
