Okay this is late new subscriber, BUT for the sharing food story I'm with you Morgan I cannot stand when someone takes my left overs that is my peeve! But if they ask to share before it's left overs I'm fine with that. But a helpful hint for significant others picking up food for their partner if they say no ALWAYS ALWAYS just grab their favorite thing from where you go, it has saved my husband and I from so many dumb arguments because if we said no and then we want something we have it 🥰

2024-09-21 14:01:56 +0000 UTCI'm pretty sure y ex had to be a sociopath tbh because he told me about his narcissistic parents and the abuse he endured growing up so i would try to teach him better knowing if you ever hadnt had a good example of what a good relationship looks like then how would you know? but he just turned everything around on me to make me look like the bad guy

2024-05-26 23:02:11 +0000 UTCI love when you guys talk about when not to do therapy and sometimes it can be dangers, I had an experience during my pregnancy and after when a therapist I had that I trusted ended up talking about my sessions with a random aftercare nurse I’ve never met before then the nurse called me telling me I was going to be a bad mum. Decided to drop the therapist that day, only now that my life is getting more busy that I’m thinking of it again and because of your podcast makes me realise I really need to do my research much more this time around!

2023-08-13 09:40:48 +0000 UTCFor the first story - try not to condemn the daughter too hard. My guess would be that her relationship with her mother is a lot stronger than that with her father. That kid is taking a hard situation out in her mom - probably because she feels subconsciously that she would lose her father if she held him accountable. Probably because he has been absent or inattentive based on energy spent elsewhere. The daughter could also have had knowledge or evidence of the affair that she didn’t understand or that she chose to forget, if so then she is probably feeling lots of shame and guilt and wants to pretend it’s her moms fault because the daughter is afraid that her parents will stop loving her if they learn that she is the one responsible (which of course she isn’t, but this is also less painful to process than the true situation). Whenever you hear anyone under 20 reacting unfairly to something their parent does, try not to judge too harshly. Sometimes the only thing a kid can do to survive is move blame onto the only person in their lives with the strength to take it, and often they’re doing this because they feel responsible for keeping the family together.

2023-07-31 18:21:35 +0000 UTCThis! I was thinking the exact same thing! I can’t imagine sitting there watching my partner disappointed and hungry and I can’t imagine my bf doing this to me. It’s not like he asked her „hey you want some ribs and steak?“ and she initially said no, but now changed her mind. It was a surprise bag, she didn’t know she was getting 5 kinds of soup! The only thing that makes him not a complete asshole is that he offered to get her some food instead.

2023-07-24 17:09:06 +0000 UTCPersonally, if that was my partner and I saw how disappointed they were with what they got, I would share and be happy to make my partner happy. She will return the favor one day. Do you want to be right? Or be happy together? Dude wants to be right.

2023-07-21 18:20:35 +0000 UTCAs a gen z also daughter from story 1 needs to go touch some fucking grass, get off tiktok and learn the real world. As a Bi woman sexuality never is an excuse to do that to someone.

2023-07-19 23:30:49 +0000 UTCits is so rare for me to not agree with what y'all say but on the second story I would say he is the asshole, one she doesn't really have money and he is well aware of that and still said to order food from her account after she had already paid. Two, she is incapacitated, she is injured, probably why she can't even make money. So she already is having a tough time, but even more partnership is about selflessness. If you don't have a selfless view with your partner you shouldn't be together, period. I don't care what we get if something happens with food either I share of he shares, however for some context I am from the south, so it is engrained. But I think also with the sharing thing, he did offer options, but if she was hungry and already disappointed, she probably just wanted a warm meal now. I think the main issue here is him not having any selfless qualities, I think overall this usually alludes to more of their personality.

2023-07-19 23:29:41 +0000 UTCStory 1. I can relate from the daughters stand point. It’s an EXTREMELY hard position to be in. My dad came out as gay. After being married to my mom for 30 years. My dad told me and my sister first before he told my mom. My mom had quit her job. And took out her retirement savings early so they could by a house to retire in. And then my dad just up and left. He also told my mother. Over TEXT and it was read over the speaker in the car while I was with her. I feel so bad for my mom. But I also feel for my dad. I was caught in a position where I saw and felt for both sides. And it was absolutely horrible. So I feel for the daughter. But coming out as gay is not an excuse to hurt the person you were married too… in my opinion

2023-07-17 15:08:29 +0000 UTCmy mom went through a divorce w my stepdad that went similarly to the first story… there could have been civil proceedings but the husband was trying to cash in on everything he could because she had the upper hand of being the victim and gaining custody, mandating child support, etc.. my stepdad is a substance abuser and he didn’t want to be the bad guy in the divorce so he tried to twist the whole story and make my mom the villain. Same with the first story.

2023-07-17 14:03:24 +0000 UTCThe problem in story 1 is that the daughter is 13, and 13 year olds don’t do well with gray areas. I remember having a VERY strong sense of justice as a teen and feeling like I needed to go on a crusade for all the things I thought were unfair in the world. I just hope the daughter eventually sees the full picture of what happened and understands her mother’s side. It’s just going to take some time.

2023-07-17 13:59:34 +0000 UTCI’m a GEN-Z, and even I know that the daughter is so in the wrong and so sucked into the media that she doesn’t even know what she’s talking about. THIRTY MEN? That’s so dangerous! And then going home and engaging with your wife? And not to mention HE took HER to court. Not the other way around. If he didn’t want people to know he was gay, he should have divorced her quietly seven years ago, settled, and gone their separate ways. She only “outed” him to protect him. If they had a prenup with an infidelity clause, she’d have to prove that he was cheating. Especially considering he went after everything!

2023-07-17 00:41:49 +0000 UTCYou guys are being WAY too understanding/easy on/of the man who cheated on his wife. Who cares if he's gay or bi, he RUINED her life. He deserves no sympathy or understanding. Who cares if she shouted it from the rooftop, it's his fault and his problem.
