1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:00,800
What's up gang?

2
00:00:01,360 --> 00:00:02,020
What up?

3
00:00:02,020 --> 00:00:02,520
What's up?

4
00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:03,520
Oh no.

5
00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:05,000
Back for another one.

6
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,120
Gosh, we sound exhausted.

7
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:08,620
Already.

8
00:00:08,620 --> 00:00:14,120
It's been a long week, but it's been a fun week full of lots of adventures, you know.

9
00:00:14,620 --> 00:00:17,500
Period. What have yours been? Because I don't know.

10
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
I don't know that my week is adventurous.

11
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,060
As soon as I said adventures, I was thinking,

12
00:00:23,060 --> 00:00:26,160
what could I make up right now to talk about adventure-wise?

13
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:27,460
I've had zero.

14
00:00:27,460 --> 00:00:29,960
I don't even remember my week, so...

15
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,960
So, last week was the Petty Olympics.

16
00:00:33,460 --> 00:00:36,460
Personally, really enjoyed that one. That was fun.

17
00:00:36,460 --> 00:00:37,460
Really good.

18
00:00:37,460 --> 00:00:42,460
And like, I don't know who had the fake, but there's one story that I remember vividly

19
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:44,460
that could have been fake.

20
00:00:45,960 --> 00:00:47,960
So, let's see if I'm right.

21
00:00:48,460 --> 00:00:50,460
If you had the fake, raise your hand.

22
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:54,460
Yeah, yeah.

23
00:00:54,460 --> 00:00:57,460
Isaiah, raise his hand if you're listening to the podcast.

24
00:00:57,460 --> 00:00:58,460
This is true.

25
00:00:58,460 --> 00:01:00,460
Mr. Programmer.

26
00:01:00,460 --> 00:01:02,460
Mr. Say No to Apps.

27
00:01:03,460 --> 00:01:05,960
Oh my goodness, that was petty as can be.

28
00:01:05,960 --> 00:01:07,460
Here's the thing though.

29
00:01:07,460 --> 00:01:11,460
I feel like if I would have known that was fake ahead of time, I would have reacted differently.

30
00:01:12,460 --> 00:01:13,460
Joe was so into it.

31
00:01:13,460 --> 00:01:16,960
I was like, I was in it to win it.

32
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:18,460
I was like, what a nerd.

33
00:01:18,460 --> 00:01:21,960
What a weirdie that would take the time to write this book.

34
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:22,960
It was you.

35
00:01:22,960 --> 00:01:24,460
It was you. You're the nerd.

36
00:01:24,460 --> 00:01:25,460
You did.

37
00:01:25,460 --> 00:01:26,460
You are.

38
00:01:26,460 --> 00:01:28,460
So, well, that's crazy.

39
00:01:28,460 --> 00:01:32,460
And in retrospect, like, might have been obvious.

40
00:01:32,460 --> 00:01:34,460
You guys let us know what you think.

41
00:01:34,460 --> 00:01:37,460
Yeah, I would love to know if everyone got it or not.

42
00:01:37,460 --> 00:01:39,460
Sometimes, it's crazy.

43
00:01:39,460 --> 00:01:43,460
Sometimes people get it, and then other times it's like, it was very random.

44
00:01:43,460 --> 00:01:46,460
Like, the guesses would be all across the board from the listeners.

45
00:01:46,460 --> 00:01:47,460
Yeah.

46
00:01:47,460 --> 00:01:53,460
I feel like people wouldn't because it was just something like, yeah, I do that too.

47
00:01:53,460 --> 00:01:54,460
It was really unboreable.

48
00:01:54,460 --> 00:01:55,460
People do it.

49
00:01:55,460 --> 00:01:56,460
You know?

50
00:01:56,460 --> 00:01:59,460
I mean, yeah, like, but to take the time to write the post.

51
00:01:59,460 --> 00:02:00,460
That's the same thing.

52
00:02:00,460 --> 00:02:06,460
It was like, I was like, who is the nerd behind the keyboard that's like, wanting to make sure

53
00:02:06,460 --> 00:02:09,460
that he gets this guilt off his chest.

54
00:02:09,460 --> 00:02:14,460
We need to look that up and see if there's any people that actually do write stuff about that.

55
00:02:14,460 --> 00:02:15,460
I'm sure there is.

56
00:02:15,460 --> 00:02:16,460
I'm sure.

57
00:02:16,460 --> 00:02:18,460
There are people for everything.

58
00:02:18,460 --> 00:02:20,460
Yeah, the internet's a vast place.

59
00:02:20,460 --> 00:02:25,460
So I'm sure there's posts out there, but yours would have been one of them now.

60
00:02:25,460 --> 00:02:29,460
That was something special.

61
00:02:29,460 --> 00:02:30,460
Nice.

62
00:02:30,460 --> 00:02:33,460
Well, this one should be fun too.

63
00:02:33,460 --> 00:02:34,460
Yeah.

64
00:02:34,460 --> 00:02:35,460
This should be a good episode.

65
00:02:35,460 --> 00:02:38,460
It is, but wait, you're not the main character.

66
00:02:38,460 --> 00:02:39,460
Period.

67
00:02:39,460 --> 00:02:44,460
So probably going to be some, some main character vibes one way or the other.

68
00:02:44,460 --> 00:02:45,460
100%.

69
00:02:45,460 --> 00:02:47,460
But let's, let's jump in.

70
00:02:47,460 --> 00:02:49,460
I'm going to guess that we're going to start with you.

71
00:02:49,460 --> 00:02:50,460
Wow.

72
00:02:50,460 --> 00:02:51,460
That's me.

73
00:02:51,460 --> 00:02:52,460
That's always me.

74
00:02:52,460 --> 00:02:53,460
It's crazy.

75
00:02:53,460 --> 00:02:54,460
That's crazy.

76
00:02:54,460 --> 00:02:55,460
It's crazy.

77
00:02:55,460 --> 00:02:56,460
We start with me.

78
00:02:56,460 --> 00:03:14,460
Internet fancy, electric love so trendy, right in this world blending, one click, no pretending.

79
00:03:14,460 --> 00:03:16,460
But the mic's going to be really good.

80
00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:20,460
Why am I in my 30th plant because I'm quite passionate about my wedding.

81
00:03:20,460 --> 00:03:21,460
Not by being sorts.

82
00:03:21,460 --> 00:03:25,460
準備, make my birthday certain.

83
00:03:25,460 --> 00:03:26,460
I was thinking.

84
00:03:26,460 --> 00:03:28,460
This would be perfect for me.

85
00:03:28,460 --> 00:03:32,660
girlfriend 26f has been on my case about this wedding her sister has been

86
00:03:32,660 --> 00:03:36,580
planning for like two years. I get it's a big deal to her family or whatever but

87
00:03:36,580 --> 00:03:40,700
it's not like I'm even close to her sister. I've met her what five times and

88
00:03:40,700 --> 00:03:43,860
three of those were at like family barbecue is where I was basically just

89
00:03:43,860 --> 00:03:47,020
there to bring beer and hang with her dad. We don't vibe and I don't feel like

90
00:03:47,020 --> 00:03:50,260
I should have to take an entire weekend out of my life for a wedding when I

91
00:03:50,260 --> 00:03:54,020
could be relaxing. The wedding was last Saturday and yeah I said I'd go months

92
00:03:54,020 --> 00:03:58,180
ago because my girlfriend was nagging me about it non-stop but the thing is I had

93
00:03:58,180 --> 00:04:01,580
a long week at work and my boys hit me up at Friday night saying they were

94
00:04:01,580 --> 00:04:05,980
having a little get-together. Just a chill night, poker, some beers, the usual. I

95
00:04:05,980 --> 00:04:11,500
figured what's one night to unwind so I went. I thought I'd leave early but then

96
00:04:11,500 --> 00:04:15,180
the game got intense and before I knew it it was 3 a.m. my girlfriend was blowing

97
00:04:15,180 --> 00:04:19,460
up my phone but I figured she'd get over it. She always does. I wake up Saturday

98
00:04:19,460 --> 00:04:23,140
hungover as hell and she's furious because I wasn't answering her texts

99
00:04:23,140 --> 00:04:26,300
and now we're late for the wedding. She's screaming about how I promised her I'd

100
00:04:26,300 --> 00:04:30,940
go and how this day is so important for her family and blah blah blah but I'm

101
00:04:30,940 --> 00:04:34,020
sitting there thinking why is everyone making such a big deal out of one day?

102
00:04:34,020 --> 00:04:38,660
It's just a wedding. Like am I supposed to ruin my weekend for a free meal and

103
00:04:38,660 --> 00:04:43,220
some bad DJ music? Plus I wasn't feeling great and honestly didn't feel like

104
00:04:43,220 --> 00:04:48,300
going so I told her to go without me and I'd stay home to recover. She went but

105
00:04:48,300 --> 00:04:52,180
now she's saying I embarrassed her in front of her entire family. Her mom even

106
00:04:52,180 --> 00:04:56,260
texted me which I think is insane because what grown man gets scolded by his

107
00:04:56,260 --> 00:05:00,620
girlfriend's mom. She's saying I let her down and made it all about me but

108
00:05:00,620 --> 00:05:04,340
honestly what was I supposed to do? Go there looking like death and be miserable

109
00:05:04,340 --> 00:05:07,860
the whole time? I feel like it's better for everyone that I stayed home. To add to

110
00:05:07,860 --> 00:05:11,180
it she's bringing up other stuff now like the fact that I build on her work

111
00:05:11,180 --> 00:05:14,300
holiday party last month because the Eagles were playing or that time she

112
00:05:14,300 --> 00:05:17,340
asked me to pick her up from the airport and I told her to Uber because I was in

113
00:05:17,340 --> 00:05:20,620
the middle of a FIFA match with my buddy. I don't think those things are

114
00:05:20,620 --> 00:05:24,460
comparable but she's making it sound like I'm some kind of terrible boyfriend. I

115
00:05:24,460 --> 00:05:27,380
don't think I'm the bad guy here. I just bug in my time and don't see why I need

116
00:05:27,380 --> 00:05:30,780
to bend over backward for every little thing. Like I treat her well most of the

117
00:05:30,780 --> 00:05:38,700
time so isn't that enough? Am I the asshole? Oh my gosh so is he the like is

118
00:05:38,700 --> 00:05:43,140
he trying to ask just about the wedding situation or all? Just the just the

119
00:05:43,140 --> 00:05:48,060
wedding situation? We'll start with the wedding. Just asking what we could talk about all the other things.

120
00:05:48,060 --> 00:05:52,620
Just the wedding then. He definitely made himself the main character here like he

121
00:05:52,620 --> 00:05:57,660
doesn't care about anything else but him as his boys. No very self-centered. Very

122
00:05:57,660 --> 00:06:01,980
clearly that's the way that he lives his entire existence. He is the he is the

123
00:06:01,980 --> 00:06:07,180
center of the world. I can't believe it. And he's like shocked that it got blown up.

124
00:06:07,180 --> 00:06:11,220
I'm like bro it definitely got blown up. You sound like an asshole. Yeah exactly.

125
00:06:11,220 --> 00:06:16,260
People love hearing this. Exactly. They want to destroy you. Yeah. That's so funny

126
00:06:16,260 --> 00:06:21,180
because he like hearing you read it he's such a bro. He's such like a frat boy

127
00:06:21,180 --> 00:06:26,540
like bro. I don't even know how he has a girlfriend honestly. Yeah she must not

128
00:06:26,540 --> 00:06:31,500
like herself. She loves the attention. Like not getting the attention and then

129
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:36,660
like the asshole. Yeah she loves that. She's in fact. A lot of girls like that.

130
00:06:36,660 --> 00:06:42,820
They do. They love that they love the d-bags. Yeah. Yeah we do. Oh please. They're two assholes.

131
00:06:42,820 --> 00:06:48,820
That must be your boyfriend because not me. I will say I get a little bit where

132
00:06:48,820 --> 00:06:53,740
he's coming from of like there's there's weddings that I've not wanted to go to.

133
00:06:53,740 --> 00:06:57,940
Yeah. The difference to you what you have to consider is like obviously we're all

134
00:06:57,940 --> 00:07:01,940
married so it is a little bit of a different vibe when they're just dating.

135
00:07:01,940 --> 00:07:07,380
Yeah. So like he's not he's not invested to the point where like yeah your whole

136
00:07:07,380 --> 00:07:14,060
family is my family already. Yeah. So it's like. And also like what's up with planning a

137
00:07:14,060 --> 00:07:20,260
wedding for two years. That's normal. I've had weddings that a lot of people do that.

138
00:07:20,260 --> 00:07:24,340
Yeah. Some some people do take more than 15 minutes. I just filmed a wedding a couple

139
00:07:24,340 --> 00:07:29,700
of November where they booked with me two years ago. Actually too. Because we got married

140
00:07:29,700 --> 00:07:35,820
in three months. Yeah. But like. But still like that's just yeah. Okay. That's crazy to me.

141
00:07:35,820 --> 00:07:43,300
But like I just I don't know. I honestly don't think he is. The asshole. I don't.

142
00:07:43,300 --> 00:07:46,900
But you don't think she's the asshole though right either. It's just kind of like a crappy

143
00:07:46,900 --> 00:07:51,020
situation. I just think it's like. Like get over it. Don't really want to go to the wedding.

144
00:07:51,020 --> 00:07:55,740
But it's really not about that. It's about showing up for your girlfriend and like she

145
00:07:55,740 --> 00:08:00,420
wants to take a plus one to the date like to the to like the wedding that I feel like he

146
00:08:00,420 --> 00:08:04,980
should care about that like oh like I'm going to be here. I mean because then she's just at

147
00:08:04,980 --> 00:08:11,500
this wedding alone. But what if he doesn't vibe like he said with her family. I think he can

148
00:08:11,500 --> 00:08:17,900
suck it up. It's one night. Drink a couple beers and just show up. Don't remember it.

149
00:08:17,900 --> 00:08:24,940
He's just one of the dudes just just a dude being a bro bro. Hey shout out to our videographer

150
00:08:24,940 --> 00:08:32,660
and DJ. Hey they're right there. They're right there. I know I'm saying I don't want to go

151
00:08:32,660 --> 00:08:38,980
to some shitty DJ. I know I was like not ours. You weren't at my wedding. That's hilarious

152
00:08:38,980 --> 00:08:44,820
because I was thinking like yeah that that like hype music to dance to at a wedding is

153
00:08:44,820 --> 00:08:50,660
like a must. Yeah but it's not. I'm kind of with him on that like the music just is kind

154
00:08:50,660 --> 00:08:57,260
of like don't give me like techno or the cha cha slide. And like that's the same type

155
00:08:57,260 --> 00:09:05,180
of vibe the entire dance. I'm like I'm going to die. Give me like shake down the little

156
00:09:05,180 --> 00:09:11,300
you know what I get out of your mind. Get out of your mind.

157
00:09:11,300 --> 00:09:16,500
To the window. To the wall.

158
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:28,060
I was just like she's getting down to my legs. Yes she was. Oh man. Well great story. Love

159
00:09:28,060 --> 00:09:33,260
that. Love you guys. Next story. Am I the devil. This one after the title you're not

160
00:09:33,260 --> 00:09:37,300
going to need much more but it's just this is the story that keeps on giving. So brace

161
00:09:37,300 --> 00:09:48,620
yourselves and for real trigger warning maybe cheated for years on GF slash wife. I'm triggered.

162
00:09:48,620 --> 00:09:56,220
Well buckle up buttercup. Say it again. Like cheated for years on GF slash wife. Meaning

163
00:09:56,220 --> 00:10:04,900
from the time. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Here I am 27 started dating my wife F 25 and summer

164
00:10:04,900 --> 00:10:10,380
2017 around that time an old friend F 26 from high school reached out and was also interested

165
00:10:10,380 --> 00:10:15,580
in dating me at the time my wife had a very rough home life filled with abuse and poverty

166
00:10:15,580 --> 00:10:20,580
and I felt incredibly bad for her. I let her move in with me by early 2018 and things were

167
00:10:20,580 --> 00:10:25,340
pretty okay the first few months but I soon learned her and I were not compatible in this

168
00:10:25,340 --> 00:10:29,900
relationship wouldn't last over this time. I still occasionally talked to my high school

169
00:10:29,900 --> 00:10:33,940
friend. She was aware that I had a GF living with me but I assured her things weren't

170
00:10:33,940 --> 00:10:39,480
that serious yet and things were only like this to help my GF get out of a bad home life.

171
00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:43,460
My plan was to help my girlfriend find a decent job and support her for a bit until she was

172
00:10:43,460 --> 00:10:47,300
on her feet and then break up with her and start dating the high school friend. Well

173
00:10:47,300 --> 00:10:51,420
weeks turned to months and no changes had been made. Girlfriend had trouble finding

174
00:10:51,420 --> 00:10:56,100
a steady job and had no aspirations of education but I couldn't find it in my gut to break

175
00:10:56,100 --> 00:11:00,540
it off knowing if I did she could possibly be homeless so I just smiled and pretended

176
00:11:00,540 --> 00:11:07,940
to be happy with her. Every chance I got I would text and call my high school friend

177
00:11:07,940 --> 00:11:12,300
we talked for hours nearly every day. I worked a job where I was alone at an office for most

178
00:11:12,300 --> 00:11:17,140
of my days so it worked out. We video called talked about our dreams and planned out lives

179
00:11:17,140 --> 00:11:21,860
together given I could get the guts to leave my girlfriend and shamefully even sexted quite

180
00:11:21,860 --> 00:11:29,060
a bit. We met up in person a few times as well but this was a pretty hard thing to pull

181
00:11:29,060 --> 00:11:33,260
off due to many reasons so it didn't happen much. This girl was my soulmate and I was

182
00:11:33,260 --> 00:11:37,940
just waiting for the right time to make my move. This freaking guy. I hate him. Same

183
00:11:37,940 --> 00:11:42,460
but I never did. Nothing ever happened. I folded under the pressure of family and friends

184
00:11:42,460 --> 00:11:47,140
and married my girlfriend in 2022. I'm pretty tech savvy and my wife is not so it wasn't

185
00:11:47,140 --> 00:11:51,660
hard to hide the messages and call logs. My mistress learned my schedule and knew exactly

186
00:11:51,660 --> 00:11:56,060
when I would be at work every day so we could talk. Neither one of us told another soul.

187
00:11:56,060 --> 00:12:00,860
She dated a few guys during all this time and always kept our secret and let it continue.

188
00:12:00,860 --> 00:12:05,460
We were 1000% in love but I just couldn't throw my gf slash wife out on the streets

189
00:12:05,460 --> 00:12:10,700
even if I knew her and I weren't meant to be. This went on from 2017 all the way until

190
00:12:10,700 --> 00:12:15,900
summer of 2023. My mistress and I finally decided that had went on long enough and ripped the

191
00:12:15,900 --> 00:12:20,460
bandaid off. We both knew I didn't have the heart to ever do what needed to be done so

192
00:12:20,460 --> 00:12:24,940
that was it. I haven't heard from her in over a year now and I'm still heartbroken. Worst

193
00:12:24,940 --> 00:12:28,300
part is that I can't tell anyone that I'm heartbroken but that's what I get for not

194
00:12:28,300 --> 00:12:36,140
having the guts to do the right thing. Let's pray right now. I'll take my hat off. For

195
00:12:36,140 --> 00:12:42,300
me because I'm about to blow. Okay you better step up to the plate here because you teed that up.

196
00:12:42,940 --> 00:12:51,580
This guy is the worst human. I hate him and him saying this poor girl. This poor

197
00:12:52,540 --> 00:13:00,140
poor girl. She's better off homeless you little fetcher like a dumb harass. Like the pity.

198
00:13:00,140 --> 00:13:13,020
The pity part. The condescending little vibe. Condescending little vibe. Yeah enough said.

199
00:13:13,020 --> 00:13:20,220
I'm so mad. No for real. Oh that poor girl. I can't stand the end where he says we have not

200
00:13:20,220 --> 00:13:25,500
spoken in over a year and I'm so heartbroken. I'm just picturing how horrible he is in that

201
00:13:25,500 --> 00:13:29,420
marriage and she's like what's wrong honey what's wrong what's wrong. Like why are you so

202
00:13:29,420 --> 00:13:35,580
distant why are you so mad and he's just so like he can't tell her he's shut off he's pissed off at her

203
00:13:36,140 --> 00:13:44,700
for his own shit. Yeah oh I just feel like that's terrible. Could you imagine no like like honey open

204
00:13:44,700 --> 00:13:50,860
up like could you tell me what's going on. It's like okay well if you really want to know like I

205
00:13:50,860 --> 00:13:55,100
only dated you because you were about to be homeless and you were traumatized as a child and I was

206
00:13:55,100 --> 00:13:59,580
really in love with this other girl and cheated on you all this time and then we decided to break

207
00:13:59,580 --> 00:14:04,620
it off a little while ago and I've never had the balls to tell you. And I miss her. And I miss her.

208
00:14:04,620 --> 00:14:11,100
And I'm heartbroken that I've lived like this. And I wanted to be with her. And I still do. Yeah.

209
00:14:12,140 --> 00:14:17,660
She would say goodbye. Of course she would and she would say thanks for the memories even though

210
00:14:17,660 --> 00:14:23,100
they weren't that great. She'd say in your name the song. It's fine you guys are children. It's

211
00:14:23,100 --> 00:14:26,140
John Mayer. No. Bob Ross. No.

212
00:14:29,980 --> 00:14:36,540
And it's like he's really just torturing himself. It's like yeah he really just has zero guts

213
00:14:36,540 --> 00:14:41,180
whatsoever. All right here's a good one. I totally cheated on my wife because I didn't want to hurt

214
00:14:41,180 --> 00:14:48,780
her. I feel like we've had a few of those. Yeah. Just insane. Just trying to protect her feelings.

215
00:14:48,780 --> 00:14:56,380
Someone else said fake. There's no way two women would fall in love with this loser. Oh I'd be surprised.

216
00:14:56,380 --> 00:15:01,100
The top one says you're a coward and deserve to be heartbroken and somebody responded and said

217
00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:08,780
this may he forever step on Lego's barefoot. You guys ready. Sounds good. This sounds really good

218
00:15:08,780 --> 00:15:14,780
guys. Am I the asshole for calling my girlfriend selfish for refusing to learn sign language for

219
00:15:14,780 --> 00:15:23,100
my daughter. My daughter Ruby was born mute. She can understand words but we use sign language to

220
00:15:23,100 --> 00:15:28,780
communicate. While she can use her phone or write obviously she prefers to sign. The issue is my

221
00:15:28,780 --> 00:15:33,340
girlfriend Amanda. We've been dating for around nine months and introduced our children around

222
00:15:33,340 --> 00:15:38,780
three months ago. They don't know sign language so communication with Ruby was awkward at first.

223
00:15:38,780 --> 00:15:44,620
She hates having to write or use her phone at home. So I taught Amanda some basic signs beforehand

224
00:15:44,620 --> 00:15:49,740
and I've continued teaching her and Mia more and this time. Mia is getting a lot better actually.

225
00:15:49,740 --> 00:15:54,940
So Mia is the daughter of the girlfriend. But Amanda has apparently decided it's too hard and

226
00:15:54,940 --> 00:15:59,980
refuses to learn anymore. She says that it's unnecessary since Ruby can understand her

227
00:15:59,980 --> 00:16:05,340
and communicate other ways. While Ruby is usually willing to do that for them. She doesn't enjoy it

228
00:16:05,340 --> 00:16:10,540
and finds it frustrating. I told Amanda she's being selfish and lazy. That it's not fair to put all

229
00:16:10,540 --> 00:16:16,060
the effort on Ruby. It's one thing if she doesn't get it after years but it's only been a few months.

230
00:16:16,060 --> 00:16:20,700
It's just ridiculous. We got into a fight over it and she basically called me an asshole and said

231
00:16:20,700 --> 00:16:26,220
it's not her fault she struggles with it. But that doesn't mean just give up. If she wants to be in

232
00:16:26,220 --> 00:16:31,980
our life it's the bare minimum effort to put in. I clearly think she's just being selfish. While she

233
00:16:31,980 --> 00:16:37,260
thinks I'm an asshole and unfair. I vented to my brother and he agreed with Amanda that I can't

234
00:16:37,260 --> 00:16:42,220
force her to learn and not everyone is good with language. And that Ruby doesn't need it and I'm

235
00:16:42,220 --> 00:16:47,820
coddling her. I'm honestly still pissed off but I do love Amanda. She's normally thoughtful and kind

236
00:16:47,820 --> 00:16:52,700
and I guess it's possible it's just me being overprotective of Ruby. I think it's a reasonable

237
00:16:52,700 --> 00:17:01,100
expectation but I'm starting to doubt myself. Yo. Yo. No. Goodbye Amanda. Literally goodbye.

238
00:17:01,100 --> 00:17:05,340
Like I'm putting my daughter over anything at that point especially if you're just dating.

239
00:17:05,340 --> 00:17:11,340
You're not married to that person. Right. Like no one red flag is over. My kid before anything

240
00:17:11,340 --> 00:17:18,220
else. Well that's a big one. That's a huge one. That is so wrong. And it really is the bare minimum

241
00:17:18,220 --> 00:17:24,780
for her to just figure it out. You gotta just learn. It takes time. It could take years but

242
00:17:24,780 --> 00:17:34,700
that's okay as long as you're willing to try. Right. She's a b****. I know when I read this I was

243
00:17:35,980 --> 00:17:45,180
sorry. Sign language for anyone honestly is like I think if I put two months of like wanting to learn

244
00:17:45,820 --> 00:17:51,500
and actually trying. Yeah. Like that's like any language when you actually are like trying to

245
00:17:51,500 --> 00:17:56,700
do it with someone. Yeah. You learn it. You're going to learn it. Yeah. Like you will no matter

246
00:17:56,700 --> 00:18:01,580
how terrible you are if you don't have a gift for it at all. You will learn it. I love sign language.

247
00:18:01,580 --> 00:18:06,780
I mean I'm definitely not fluent in sign language but I really enjoy sign language. I feel like

248
00:18:06,780 --> 00:18:12,380
you could absolutely learn it. It's not impossible and it is the bare minimum like you said. I feel

249
00:18:12,380 --> 00:18:18,620
so sad. I like want to cry for it. That one is really sad. He cannot be like he can't overlook

250
00:18:18,620 --> 00:18:23,820
that one thing because I promise you if he did that he's going to regret it for the rest of his

251
00:18:23,820 --> 00:18:29,260
life. He's going to get married to her and he's going to get a divorce. You 100% off. Yeah.

252
00:18:29,260 --> 00:18:34,300
Because there's going to be more things down the road where she's going to push more and more of

253
00:18:34,300 --> 00:18:39,740
certain things. Here's the other thing. How hard is it to learn the alphabet and sign language?

254
00:18:39,740 --> 00:18:45,500
Not freaking hard. That's like a day. Yeah. And then you can just spell of things. You can just

255
00:18:45,500 --> 00:18:51,420
communicate that way and then like learn. Yeah. I mean it goes without saying that there's literally

256
00:18:51,420 --> 00:18:59,740
there's no excuse for not being willing to learn how to communicate with his daughter. Yeah. It's

257
00:18:59,740 --> 00:19:05,100
like what are we even talking about here? You're dating. Are you going to blend families or are you

258
00:19:05,100 --> 00:19:11,180
not going to do what's required for that? Well and her daughter seems just fine with it. She

259
00:19:11,180 --> 00:19:17,260
loves it and she's learning fast and the thing is about like sign language it's like and lots of

260
00:19:17,260 --> 00:19:21,980
like every other language it's like there's English is so hard. Like there's different

261
00:19:21,980 --> 00:19:27,500
conjugations. There's all like one word could mean 12 different things you know and like spell

262
00:19:27,500 --> 00:19:34,620
the same way but like really like sign language is pretty straightforward and the signs most of the

263
00:19:34,620 --> 00:19:41,100
time like make sense and look like what you're trying to say and so it's like it's really not I

264
00:19:41,100 --> 00:19:46,140
mean I don't want to say it's not that hard because I mean I'm sure it is for some people but she can

265
00:19:46,140 --> 00:19:50,940
do it. She can handle it. She's a grown woman. Yeah it's like she's not she doesn't have to learn

266
00:19:50,940 --> 00:19:57,260
Mandarin. No. Like it's not you don't have to learn some crazy language. That's okay honey. Yeah.

267
00:19:59,180 --> 00:20:03,260
She's gonna have that's literally the type of stuff that would have to be unpacked in therapy

268
00:20:03,260 --> 00:20:07,180
right years down the road because nobody's even gonna have the conversation with her like hey

269
00:20:07,180 --> 00:20:11,740
it's not your fault that Amanda got kicked to the curb like that you know this didn't work out.

270
00:20:12,780 --> 00:20:20,940
What do you think of the brother deciding with the girlfriend? He's the brother from

271
00:20:20,940 --> 00:20:25,340
the couple weeks ago that was going through the phone for the nudes. Yeah same guy. Yeah.

272
00:20:25,340 --> 00:20:30,220
Same guy. That's the brother that has a crush on the brother's girlfriend. What about that one?

273
00:20:30,220 --> 00:20:36,220
Yeah he's sucking up to her for sure. Ten years later he's like dude I need your insight.

274
00:20:37,500 --> 00:20:45,740
Oh yeah dude. You're wrong. Like bad idea like don't do that. Yeah. All right you guys are

275
00:20:45,740 --> 00:20:52,060
gonna hear some comments. Pepper90210 said this should be a deal breaker for you.

276
00:20:52,060 --> 00:21:01,900
Yeah. Yeah. No I agree. Little Ilean said your brother is an asshole too asking for someone

277
00:21:01,900 --> 00:21:06,460
that I'm guessing you might see a future with to learn how to best communicate with your daughter

278
00:21:06,460 --> 00:21:12,620
is not coddling her and she does in fact need to be able to communicate but more importantly

279
00:21:12,620 --> 00:21:18,060
in a manner she feels most comfortable with asking a child to accommodate an adult is honestly one

280
00:21:18,060 --> 00:21:23,420
of the most entitled things I've ever heard. The fact that adult is saying this is too hard for me

281
00:21:24,220 --> 00:21:28,780
do it how I want to is troubling and something you should really consider before taking any

282
00:21:28,780 --> 00:21:34,220
further steps with Amanda. That sums it up. Amanda's gotta go. She's gotta go. I literally

283
00:21:34,220 --> 00:21:40,700
started tearing up. I've never done that in any store we have ever had on this show podcast

284
00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:49,740
because that is so sad. Like he needs to hear my voice right now. You need to leave. Dude like

285
00:21:49,740 --> 00:21:55,900
are you listening? You son of a bitch. She's talking to you. Guys I'm gonna start crying.

286
00:21:56,940 --> 00:22:06,780
You just relax. Let's okay. Let's move on. I love you Ruby. My fiance 29 and I 31M just found out

287
00:22:06,780 --> 00:22:11,580
that we're pregnant. My fiance mentioned that she wanted to wait to announce it at her cousin's

288
00:22:11,580 --> 00:22:16,140
wedding which will be taking place on Sunday. Her cousin and her husband have been struggling

289
00:22:16,140 --> 00:22:22,140
getting pregnant even with IVF or tons of others. Recently they just got some news that their insurance

290
00:22:22,140 --> 00:22:27,340
has stopped funding IVF and not to mention the heartbreak of a recent miscarriage on Mother's Day.

291
00:22:27,340 --> 00:22:33,580
They almost understandably held off on the wedding so my fiance brought it up to me. I told her it's

292
00:22:33,580 --> 00:22:39,180
not at all a good idea. This just seems so wrong especially it being at their wedding. I asked if

293
00:22:39,180 --> 00:22:43,660
she was going to at least ask her cousin for permission and she said no because she wanted it

294
00:22:43,660 --> 00:22:48,300
to be a surprise for everyone. I told her it's not the time nor the place for that and they would

295
00:22:48,300 --> 00:22:53,180
take the spotlight off the couple. In their family there hasn't been a baby in three years so we'd

296
00:22:53,180 --> 00:22:57,900
be the first in that time. My fiance feels that the that it's the perfect time because it's such a

297
00:22:57,900 --> 00:23:02,700
joy and it's not like she can keep it away forever and their problems shouldn't keep her from telling

298
00:23:02,700 --> 00:23:07,980
something so positive. So it's on them and they turn it negative. I told her that's not the point.

299
00:23:07,980 --> 00:23:12,140
She knows what they've been struggling with and she's being selfish if she actually goes through

300
00:23:12,140 --> 00:23:16,300
with that. She cried and claimed I wasn't being supportive and I shouldn't be calling my

301
00:23:16,300 --> 00:23:21,820
pregnant fiance selfish. She doesn't want me to come to come with her to the wedding anymore either

302
00:23:21,820 --> 00:23:26,940
feeling as if I would kill the mood and she hasn't been talking to me either and then this is like

303
00:23:26,940 --> 00:23:32,460
an edit it says so about my fiance and her cousin's relationship. My fiance always saw competition

304
00:23:32,460 --> 00:23:38,940
in her cousin because her cousin would be better at things than her grades dancing cosmetics.

305
00:23:38,940 --> 00:23:43,660
Since they were kids they and she hates that. Last year they hadn't argument about it because my

306
00:23:43,660 --> 00:23:49,500
fiance felt her cousin bragged too much whereas my fiance also mentioned there was one thing her

307
00:23:49,500 --> 00:23:55,660
cousin wasn't good at but never said what it was. So in shorter terms the relationship is in between

308
00:23:55,660 --> 00:24:00,140
good and bad but her cousin wanted to invite her to the wedding. I'm guessing to rekindle that.

309
00:24:00,140 --> 00:24:04,940
If anyone is reading this update coming soon just been going through some stuff for a long

310
00:24:04,940 --> 00:24:12,140
wait. Oh please tell me there's an update. What was one year ago. Oh oh dude that girl sucks.

311
00:24:13,660 --> 00:24:20,620
The worst. So bad. Just be the fact that you could be insensitive enough to want to announce it

312
00:24:20,620 --> 00:24:25,260
in front of the couple. Right. That's been going through the infertility. That's crazy but then

313
00:24:25,260 --> 00:24:30,380
to do it at their wedding on top of that. And then we're going to cancel it because of the

314
00:24:30,380 --> 00:24:35,500
miscarriage and all of the stuff. That's heartbreaking. They're just like hey we're so glad this worked

315
00:24:35,500 --> 00:24:40,620
out for you guys and we're expecting and we didn't have to spend thousands of dollars and it happened

316
00:24:40,620 --> 00:24:46,300
for us naturally and everything's great and like why aren't you guys happy for us. Oh congrats on

317
00:24:46,300 --> 00:24:53,340
your wedding. That's on you. That is grade A the worst. Like this fits in all the categories.

318
00:24:53,340 --> 00:25:00,060
This is like worst person of the year. This is like literally in all the things. Definitely main

319
00:25:00,060 --> 00:25:06,780
character vibes but oh my gosh. Yeah. And not to mention that their relationship has been strained

320
00:25:06,780 --> 00:25:13,900
basically their the whole life now too. So it's like you really care that much about like one

321
00:25:13,900 --> 00:25:19,260
up in your cousin that you're going to like do that at her wedding. I hope her cousin does something

322
00:25:19,260 --> 00:25:23,420
shitty at her wedding if she actually does that because they're not married. She won't survive.

323
00:25:23,420 --> 00:25:32,060
Her cousin's going to pop her one. That's like the level of the level of like what's the word.

324
00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:38,780
Like the way that that would hurt for the cousin to have them announce it at her wedding.

325
00:25:39,820 --> 00:25:44,540
Like oh just that infertility stuff too. Like not to beat the dead horse. That is like

326
00:25:44,540 --> 00:25:50,380
it's so hard to explain what that feels like for those people and like you start to want to just

327
00:25:50,380 --> 00:25:56,380
wrap yourself in bubble wrap. Yeah. Because it's like you're it's so emotional. You can't avoid it.

328
00:25:56,380 --> 00:26:01,500
You see it everywhere and then like you have to think that somebody would like make a competition

329
00:26:01,500 --> 00:26:08,140
out of it. That person's such a bad person. Yeah. They weren't having that problem. Yeah.

330
00:26:08,140 --> 00:26:15,100
It doesn't matter. Like when someone's wedding like it's like wearing a white dress but worse

331
00:26:15,100 --> 00:26:20,700
getting proposed to at a wedding. Yeah. That is I think that you want to hear if you want to hear

332
00:26:20,700 --> 00:26:27,900
crazy story. Yes. At someone's baptism in South Africa. Someone got baptized right as soon as they

333
00:26:27,900 --> 00:26:33,500
got dunked and were walking out of the font. Literally someone announced now look behind you

334
00:26:33,500 --> 00:26:42,780
and the guy was on his mean proposing. No. Just just people in the ward. A guy and a girl.

335
00:26:42,780 --> 00:26:45,100
They both got from their missions and he was proposing.

336
00:26:47,500 --> 00:26:53,180
How messed up is that right as soon as the girl the girl gets dunked at the baptism.

337
00:26:54,540 --> 00:26:59,660
And then they close it. They close it and then one of the person's announces like

338
00:26:59,660 --> 00:27:06,620
now look behind there. Everyone's everyone turns around and then like freaking out.

339
00:27:06,620 --> 00:27:11,580
They just do it because all their family was there at that point. No clue. Who cares. Yeah.

340
00:27:12,940 --> 00:27:17,980
We're this committed. We're this committed to the gospel like our life which we're started on the

341
00:27:17,980 --> 00:27:25,900
right foot. Like it was really weird. You're getting baptized and literally someone's getting

342
00:27:25,900 --> 00:27:31,020
engaged right in front of you after you come out of the water and everyone's like you look and

343
00:27:31,020 --> 00:27:35,900
everyone's turned around looking at someone else and you're just like oh okay. That's your day.

344
00:27:37,500 --> 00:27:42,460
So I just want to clarify like how it ended. So the wedding hasn't happened yet.

345
00:27:43,420 --> 00:27:46,620
It's happening Sunday. So he probably wrote this like

346
00:27:47,580 --> 00:27:51,980
Tuesday and it's happening that weekend. She's like don't come with me. He has no idea if she's

347
00:27:51,980 --> 00:27:55,740
going to do it or not but she probably will do it because there's nothing stopping her.

348
00:27:55,740 --> 00:28:01,100
Yeah. She's just her world. Yep. Everybody's living in it. Can you imagine that couple's face

349
00:28:01,100 --> 00:28:06,460
at their wedding and hearing it? Yeah. It's like how and the family's probably like this is so

350
00:28:06,460 --> 00:28:10,780
awkward. Like we want to be happy for you but we don't want to do it here. Like that's weird.

351
00:28:10,780 --> 00:28:16,140
Yeah. That makes sense. That's the whole that's so tone deaf. Like that's the other thing is

352
00:28:16,140 --> 00:28:19,980
you have to consider the fact that there's you're affecting a lot of people because yeah.

353
00:28:20,700 --> 00:28:25,420
Like a lot of people would want to celebrate that moment for them but you putting them

354
00:28:25,420 --> 00:28:32,620
between the couple that just got married it's just a horrible thing. And she's actually the

355
00:28:32,620 --> 00:28:37,340
cousin the bad cousin. She's actually selling herself short air to you because she could get

356
00:28:37,340 --> 00:28:42,300
a way better reaction and a way better experience and memory with her family and loved ones if she

357
00:28:42,300 --> 00:28:48,220
did it outside of the couple that's struggling with infertility like a completely different day time.

358
00:28:49,660 --> 00:28:54,380
It could be such a beautiful moment but like you said it's she's not going to get that out of them.

359
00:28:54,380 --> 00:29:00,700
No. No. They're just all gonna she's rude and I hope so. Well and the thing is too is she

360
00:29:01,740 --> 00:29:07,580
is just gonna like how is she gonna she's just gonna stand up and like without her husband there too.

361
00:29:07,580 --> 00:29:13,500
She's like I'm praying like what like how is that gonna go down like but my baby dad is not here.

362
00:29:14,460 --> 00:29:17,820
She's gonna give a toast. I'm telling you right now. Yeah like goes up to the microphone.

363
00:29:17,820 --> 00:29:25,100
Like me and Sally have been competing our entire lives and like Sally I'm really happy for you

364
00:29:25,100 --> 00:29:30,940
and for everyone else like I I just want to let you know I'm pregnant. Sorry about your guys

365
00:29:30,940 --> 00:29:38,300
it's results but I'm pregnant. Oh my god. It's so bad. This is like it's like the scene of like a

366
00:29:38,300 --> 00:29:43,900
Steve Carell movie where it's so cringy. Yeah. And you literally just want to exit your skin like

367
00:29:43,900 --> 00:29:48,540
you just want to not exist anymore. That's what it feels like like the office. It's the office.

368
00:29:48,540 --> 00:29:55,180
It's like dinner for schmucks. That whole movie is like the most uncomfortable thing. We found the

369
00:29:55,180 --> 00:30:01,900
update. Isaiah found the update everybody. Yeah I found it. Okay you read it. Okay holy shit.

370
00:30:03,260 --> 00:30:08,540
Oh wait this is really good guys. Whoa. Sorry for the long wait as I have been working through

371
00:30:08,540 --> 00:30:16,460
some things. Me and my fiance breaking up working death of my grandfather etc. Oh RIP granddad.

372
00:30:16,460 --> 00:30:21,340
You know so I didn't expect to get a bunch of replies to my posts but a lot of them are helpful.

373
00:30:21,340 --> 00:30:26,540
My ex has determined to go to the wedding despite my protest and even planned out how she was going

374
00:30:26,540 --> 00:30:32,540
to refuse alcohol when offered. I did tell my ex's parents about what she was planning on doing.

375
00:30:32,540 --> 00:30:36,620
I didn't want to tell the groom or the bride because I wouldn't know how to put into words

376
00:30:36,620 --> 00:30:41,260
that they were making the whole situation any less awful. Ex's parents did end up telling the

377
00:30:41,260 --> 00:30:46,780
bride's parents and then they told the bride. The bride was so upset that she unfortunately

378
00:30:46,780 --> 00:30:57,740
called off the wedding. Oh my gosh. Everyone wanted her to continue it and invite my ex

379
00:30:57,740 --> 00:31:03,900
for a couple of plans. Guess thought of. Oh couple of plans like basically they were going to bomb

380
00:31:03,900 --> 00:31:09,260
her thing. Like they were going to like destroy her. Oh yeah this is an example when my ex announced

381
00:31:09,260 --> 00:31:13,900
it everyone would just say nonchalant and not give her excitement reaction she was hoping for

382
00:31:13,900 --> 00:31:19,660
and the classic just don't invite her plan. Oh my gosh. The bride was just understandably

383
00:31:19,660 --> 00:31:24,780
wanting to be left alone and she just texted my fiance a very long paragraph telling her what a

384
00:31:24,780 --> 00:31:29,980
horrible person she was. She just decided not to do the wedding anymore and her fiance was very

385
00:31:29,980 --> 00:31:35,180
heartbroken but all in all they were both grateful to me. My ex instantly knew that I was the cause

386
00:31:35,180 --> 00:31:40,700
of this and that she was furious with me even more because I posted about it on here but I

387
00:31:40,700 --> 00:31:46,460
also said a pretty sick thing about how she was still pretty much one anyways. I just decided to

388
00:31:46,460 --> 00:31:52,140
break up with her myself after that. Some of her family members are kind of upset at me as they

389
00:31:52,140 --> 00:31:56,700
believed I just caused a bunch of drama. Now I'm currently in the works of talking to an attorney

390
00:31:56,700 --> 00:32:02,060
as my ex told me I will not be seeing the baby after they are born. Oh yeah that sucks. I was

391
00:32:02,060 --> 00:32:07,100
already thinking that. I wasn't I didn't even think about that. So all that on top of grief working

392
00:32:07,100 --> 00:32:12,460
breakup being called a messy a mess starter by some of her family and still feeling like shit

393
00:32:12,460 --> 00:32:17,820
because either way the bride and groom were heartbroken. It's just a bunch of anxiety and

394
00:32:17,820 --> 00:32:24,780
stress on me. Anyway here's a long awaited update. Any questions I'll answer and then he has an edit

395
00:32:24,780 --> 00:32:29,340
and he says so they are pretty much already contemplating on canceling the wedding. They were

396
00:32:29,340 --> 00:32:34,220
already family members did stress her out over her miscarriage and canceling. Her fiance's family

397
00:32:34,220 --> 00:32:40,140
were excessive about oh she couldn't carry a baby to full term like a real woman. No way.

398
00:32:41,180 --> 00:32:46,940
Her fiance's family was saying that to her. Wow. Not to mention her own family went around

399
00:32:46,940 --> 00:32:52,460
spreading her miscarriage like wildfire which is how my ex and I found out. They told it to

400
00:32:52,460 --> 00:32:57,740
co-workers even. It's not the first time my ex has also interrupted her cousin's big events.

401
00:32:57,740 --> 00:33:04,540
Example when they turn when turning 17 my ex cake smashed her which wasn't fun for her cousin.

402
00:33:04,540 --> 00:33:08,700
Her their first pregnancy announcement which was the miscarriage was ruined because my ex

403
00:33:08,700 --> 00:33:15,100
blurted the news out but her cousins told her to go to get over that because it was a miscarriage

404
00:33:15,100 --> 00:33:22,380
anyways. So she told my family members. So she's told my family members. This is what I was told

405
00:33:22,380 --> 00:33:27,180
when asking about. So she's been at a breaking point for a while. She was considering just

406
00:33:27,180 --> 00:33:30,860
still continuing the wedding but wanted to be left alone. They didn't call off the wedding

407
00:33:30,860 --> 00:33:40,620
permanently just until the bride has cooled herself down. That's good. That's why. Well good for him

408
00:33:40,620 --> 00:33:48,300
that he did. Yes. That whole family sounds like a shit show. Right. Even her even the bride's

409
00:33:48,300 --> 00:33:55,420
fiance like hurt his family. Like who says that. Seriously. She's not a real woman because she

410
00:33:55,420 --> 00:34:02,060
can't carry a baby. That is ridiculous. That's so gross. On the update it says I'm concerned

411
00:34:02,060 --> 00:34:07,340
about this baby. The timing of it almost makes it seem like the ex got pregnant just to show

412
00:34:07,340 --> 00:34:12,620
up her cousin. I'm glad they're getting a lawyer early. Even think about that. Like maybe she was

413
00:34:12,620 --> 00:34:18,780
like oh my gosh like her wedding is coming up. Like I'm not married yet. So I'm pregnant.

414
00:34:20,620 --> 00:34:27,340
And if that is where she's coming from that is absolutely terrible. Oh my gosh. Can you imagine

415
00:34:27,340 --> 00:34:32,700
caring that much about like your cousin. That's embarrassing. Like how do you not just root for

416
00:34:32,700 --> 00:34:37,740
each other in life. I don't give a shit about mine. I'm just kidding. Well that that was that was

417
00:34:37,740 --> 00:34:42,620
crazy. There were some there were some triggering things in this episode. I'm feeling a little a

418
00:34:42,620 --> 00:34:49,260
little stirred up emotionally. Good thing I have therapy tomorrow. Shit. Yeah. Good to be back.

419
00:34:50,140 --> 00:34:55,340
I started school. That was so awesome. I love that for you. Nice. Call your therapist. Well let

420
00:34:55,340 --> 00:35:02,060
us know you guys. Let us know who you think is the fake this week. There's potential for any one

421
00:35:02,060 --> 00:35:08,780
of us to be the fake. These stories were crazy. I think it was possible. My least was the fake.

422
00:35:08,780 --> 00:35:14,380
If I could write the most toxic story I could think of like the most inflammatory thing.

423
00:35:14,380 --> 00:35:19,020
That's like kind of what it would have been about literally like I just can't think of anything. It

424
00:35:19,020 --> 00:35:27,020
would be more sinister. That's like yeah just one of those things. But anyways let us know who you

425
00:35:27,020 --> 00:35:32,380
think was the fake. Follow us on socials. Give us a rate on your favorite pack on your favorite
