GIRL.. || Dumbstruck Reddit Stories || Two Hot Takes Podcast

Okay. You ready? We got this. Okay. >> We are going to do so good today. Okay. >> No one's going to yell at us. Really? >> No one is going to yell at us. >> Are you like trying to manifest that? >> Yes. [laughter]. Um Well, I just, you know, I feel like. we're we're jokesters. Like our love. language is. being playful and poking fun with each. other and and cutting each other off. Yes. It's our favorite thing to do. I. don't want to finish my sentence.

>> Never. Let my brain work less hard. It'll be a run-on sentence that will. never end. You got to cut me off. Well, you know what's funny is actually I've. been better about not interrupting you. and I just let you go. Oh, no. Yeah. And. then when I'm editing [laughter] when. I'm editing it, I'll get to the end of. your sentence and you kind of start like. you start like trailing off to where. you're like, >> "Can you" and you're like, "Yeah, you're. like waiting for me to jump in, but I. but I don't anymore.".

>> No, we. >> not all the times obviously, >> but we have a cadence. >> And then you'll be like, you'll get to. the end and you'll be like, "But I don't. know." [laughter]. >> Or like, do you know what I mean? >> But never mind. But actually, I don't. know. I don't know what I'm talking. about because you didn't cut in. >> Exactly. But I literally I won't like. interrupt you. So when I'm editing, there's like literally a 5-second like. break that you take in the middle of. your sentence and then I can tell you're. waiting for me, but I'm like I'm not. coming in. >> No, you be better. >> I've That's how I I'm I rely on that.

now. [laughter]. There's only like probably been like two. times that you've cut me off where I've. been like I really wanted to finish my. sentence [laughter] there. Well, that's. where you got to like you just got to be. like, "Shut upish.". >> No, but like my point is is that like. it's so it's like usually the cadence. that I appreciate. And so I'm I'm saying. that it's like that's such a rarity for. you to cut me off in a point where I'm. like, "No, no, no, no, no. Like, let me. finish." Like that doesn't it doesn't. usually happen. I'm just like, "Yes,

let's Yes. >> Yeah. We're vibing. We're driving. We're. going to have a good time." It really. works for my ADHD brain for whatever. reason. Um, so, okay. Well, I'll try to interrupt. you more today is what I'm hearing. >> Yeah, >> everyone's already screaming in their. car. [laughter]. >> Well, I have an eye twitch from hell. >> I've had bananas when that happens. I've. had water. I'm I'm really trying to. really hydrate today. So, I've got a.

propel water, a sparkling water. If that. doesn't help, Justin's bringing wine. So, we're going to have so much fun. And. I've got some really, really crazy. stories. And I let people on Instagram. vote just now and I was like, I can't. pick a theme. What do you guys want? And. girl was the winner. >> Girl, girl, >> girl. or like girl. I don't know. However you. want to say it. >> Okay, >> you'll see. Could depend on the story. >> Okay, >> but this is going to be a really fun.

one. As you guys will notice, there's. two episodes that dropped this week. One. with Sarah Sherman and one with Lauren. >> because like this one. >> you right now. >> Right now. >> Okay. I was like what? [laughter]. >> Right now. >> What episode? >> Because the Sarah one would have been so. short otherwise and I'm like we I can't. I can't do that. >> to our family. So hence we have this. So. Lord and I are still going to record for. our full time but the rest of it will be.

on Patreon. So, it's a little bit of a. tease, but you are getting two episodes. this week, so I hope that's okay. Who's. going first? Me or Sarah? >> Sarah will come out first. >> Okay, that's okay. >> Yeah. Right. Or should I or should I. fight for the first spot? >> Oo, [laughter]. we can make you compete for it. We We'll. see who's better by the end of this. But, okay, let's get into these cuz I've. got I've got some good ones today. Let's dive in. Let's do it. [music].

So, this is a post you found the other. day and. >> oh god, >> you were sitting here like reading it. and you started crying and then you were. like, "Do you want me to read it to. you?" And I was like, "Yeah, show me.". And you like wouldn't show me right. away. And so I pulled it up and so I. started reading it and then I started. crying. >> Well, cuz I couldn't speak. I was. crying, sobbing. I and Morgan was like, "I need to see this right now." And I.

was like, "Just wait." Because I I kind. of wanted her to read it for the first. time like in front of you guys because. it's just the most touching thing ever. But um anyway, I actually was hoping. that we could save that for a rainy day. because I'm like smiling right now and I. feel like I don't want to cry. [laughter]. >> It's so good though. >> It's so good. And I think it's just a. beautiful story to get us started.

However, if you are a crier, I would say come back to this cuz it is. it's going to put you in your feels. So, it's coming from our very own Two Hot. Takes subreddit. It is a couple days old. now titled Two Hot Takes Saved My Life. Not in a symbolic way, for real. [laughter]. Oh my gosh. Hi all. First time writing, longtime listener. I was diagnosed with. leukemia a little over two years ago. I.

can remember getting the news like it. was yesterday. The world felt like it. was caving in on me. I kept asking, "Why. me? Why of all people does this happen. to me?" Hospital stays and chemo became. my life. And it felt like there was no. end. I was constantly throwing up and. bedridden with sickness. I could barely. walk and had to be carried from place to. place. Every time I got a spinal tap, which was every other week, I got. debilitating spinal migraines. You get. the gist. It was awful.

One year down and there was still only. extremely small signs of remission. Next. thing I know, it's approaching 2 years. later. Still no remission. I was. pondering the idea of stopping treatment. and letting myself pass because I didn't. want to live like this. The night before. I was going to tell my doctors my. decision, I decided to put on an episode. of Two Hot Takes to help me fall asleep. I would listen to the podcast during. chemo infusions to help pass the time. Love you, Morgan. By the time I got to.

the end of the episode, I still couldn't. fall asleep. On came the end of the. podcast where Morgan and her guest just. chat a little bit. I unfortunately can't. remember exactly what was said, but. something made me burst out laughing. It. was the most I had laughed in a long. time. I wish I knew what was said, but. it sure was hilarious. After having that. moment, during this specific moment in. my life, something shifted. I decided to. wait another week just so I could hear. another podcast. One week turned into.

three, which turned into months. 4. months later, I am now in remission. I. never thought this day would come, but. here I am. I still have a long road. ahead of me, but I am finally seeing. some light. If it weren't for Morgan's. podcast, I might have given up on my. treatment and not been here today. Thank. you, Morgan. Thank you, THT weekly. guests. Thank you, THT listeners who. keep this podcast going. Thank you to my. doctors who are saving my life. Thank. you to my family and friends sticking by.

my side. It's also so sweet that she mentioned. the listeners, too, because it's true. like this wouldn't keep going without. you guys. So, it's the whole reason. we're here. I mean, we've joked about. this from the beginning. Like, if no one. would have listened, it would have been. done. >> a long time ago. >> Yeah. >> I've just I've cried so much over this. story and just how incredibly strong she. is and just you don't realize how many.

people are on the other side of this. show sometimes and it's just it's so. impactful and thank you all. Thank you. to people like Lauren for starting this. show with me and just being here week. after week with me and letting me cut. you off all the time and just it it. wouldn't exist without us starting it. together. So [sighs]. beautiful, beautiful comments on this, by the way. Like just you guys showing. up tenfold in the comments. It's it's.

been amazing to see. >> Yeah, I I know. I I read through the. comments, too, and it's just it's such a. beautiful. and supportive group of people in those. comments and and I and it it's also just. like a reflection of. so much of the community that we have. here. It's a good reminder, I think, for. both both of us because we I mean, we're. emotional and we're we we're sensitive.

when we come across something that says. that hurts our feelings online, right? Like, but that's there's always going to. be like that online. There's always. going to be someone who has a problem. with something or like takes something. in a way that you didn't mean it or, you. know, maybe we were tripping up over our. words in a weird headsp space and didn't. even communicate something right. So, like we get so in our heads and then. sometimes it's like we forget that there. is this large community who they're not. the ones in the comments being like, I. didn't like that you said this. They're. they're lit literally listening during.

chemo treatments and and that's what. makes us keep going and that's what. makes us love this podcast and love you. guys is like that reminder that there's. so much beauty to this and to not let. ourselves get caught up on something. that might hurt our feelings. Absolutely. Absolutely. I. I I [sighs]. just like don't even have any words. I. just it makes you realize why like it's. so important to keep going and. >> this like I feel like I I messaged her. and I'm just like I feel like you healed.

my burnout. I'm just like. >> yeah [laughter]. >> I'm like you healed me. >> I did say that when after she read that. we were both crying and she was like. burnout who? >> I know. Literally I've already cried. over your writing three times by the. way. So I'm like I actually was able to. get through it reading which I'm. [laughter] just like shocked. I'm like. so proud of myself. But I sent her a. message and I'm gonna be sending her a. little goodie and um I'm just I'm so. grateful. I'm so so so grateful and I. know I will piss you off sometime very.

soon. So just keep loving me. [laughter]. I'm so sorry. But here we go. >> Girl, how do you feel when people say girly or. hey girly pop? Hey girlies. I was gonna. Google what girly pop actually meant. Probably means girly pop. It's a playful. Gen Z slang term to address a close. female friend. Hey, girly pop. I thought.

that's been around for a long time. Are. we giving that to Jenz? [laughter]. Google is actually. You know what? No, it probably is Jenzie because I can't. think of anyone who said that when we. were in high school. You know what's. crazy? It's even in Webster Webster. dictionary. But okay, here we go. Yeah, get that red flag ready, Lauren. This is. coming from Am I overreacting? It's. titled, "Am I overreacting? My husband. doesn't want me to come to his military. boot camp graduation when I already paid.

for plane tickets.". First thought, not overreacting. Let's hear what else, though. My. husband, 27 male, graduates from the US. Air Force boot camp. It's about 2 months. long. Before he left, he told me he. didn't want me there at graduation. I, 21 female, was really upset about it, especially since this is a huge thing, and I wanted to be there to tap him out. Throughout our relationship, he's made.

decisions without really involving me, including joining the military. I told. him before he left that if he changed. his mind to let me know because I would. really love to come. He told me not to. take it personally because he wouldn't. want his mom there either. But she lives. in another country, so she wouldn't be. able to anyways. Since they barely get. phone access during boot camp, most. communication has to be through letters. I got my first mail from him with his. printed graduation information. And on.

the back, he wrote, "I love you." I know. this part is on me, but I took that as. him changing his mind about me coming, and I got excited and bought plane. tickets. I admit I should have confirmed. it first before spending the money, but. I genuinely thought things had changed. I sent him a letter telling him how. excited I was to see him and celebrate. He recently got access to text briefly. and told me he does still not want me to.

come and that I need to figure it out. with the plane tickets. The tickets are. non-refundable, but I can change the. dates. Hundreds of families and spouses. attend the 2-day graduation to celebrate. their airmen. And I can't understand why. he doesn't want me there. >> Another girl. >> I've asked him for a reason, but he. won't really give me one. Am I. overreacting for being upset about this? And what should I do? I feel stuck and. about to crash out. Yeah, that I He's.

definitely He's definitely sketchy. And. who [laughter] who sends who sends an. invite with all the information and then. says, "Don't come. What do you mean?". Specifically when there's like a lack of. communication, right? You're not. talking. >> They're using snail mail and he. [laughter] is an invitation. Like. please. What was he thinking? It's. literally an invitation. It's got all. the graduation information on it. And. only other thing, I love you.

>> I love you. >> I'd be like, cool. He wants me to go. >> Yeah. >> I guess he doesn't hate my guts. >> What was he thinking, do you think? Like, was he just like. >> I don't know. I feel like he sent it to. the wrong person. [laughter]. >> Probably. >> Wrong girl. >> Literally. Probably. >> Like, who is going to be there to tap. you out? >> Yeah. tapping. Getting tapped out is a. big deal. >> Yeah. >> So, if you're not familiar with it, I've. seen a lot of videos on it. >> They make me in the military. I haven't. been. So, if you are in the armed forces.

or like have a family member you've. tapped out, please tell us about your. experience in the comments. >> But essentially, like they all stand in. formation and are like. >> military style until their family. members go up to them and typically just. hug them and then they can. >> and then they like Yeah. It's actually I. don't know what it is about those. videos. >> They make me cry every time. >> It's so It feels so emotional because. you see the version of them that they. trained so hard for and they stay so.

still like a statue and then the minute. that their family touches them, they. just melt, cry, hug, celebration and and. then it's like that other side of them. is released and it's there's something. so beautiful about it. Well, cuz like. basic training like boot camp is also. kind of meant to break you in a way. Yeah. >> It's meant to train you. >> to be in the military. So, you are.

>> almost without free will in a sense. Like I think that's like my friend who. was in the Navy and I've had another. friend in the Marines and talked to them. about it. Like it does break you a. little bit. So to then have your loved. ones and just be you and just Yeah. you. kind of just melt into them. It's just. it's amazing. And so if my husband was. telling me he didn't want me there, >> that's crazy. >> After not seeing me for 2 months, >> almost 25% of the year, just add one. more month, we're at 25%. >> Yeah.

>> What is crash out, too? There's. >> Why are we married? >> There's got to be another person. I. mean, why? Let's Okay, let's just say. there's not another person that's. attending this event. >> Who's tapping him out? >> Even if that's not what What would be. the reason he wouldn't want her there if. she wanted to be there so badly? Like. let's just think about it like is. embarrassment like shyness what like. what what are the other reasons? I'm. just trying to think it through. >> No, it's a big deal when people don't. have family that's able to make it. I've. seen other videos where like someone's.

mom tapped out their brother's friend. >> Yeah, I think Oh, >> or something. Or like mom tapped out. someone didn't have anyone. It's like. >> it's a big deal. And it's like she. bought tickets. It's non-refundable. Show up. >> Show up. >> Show up. >> I. >> Here's where Here's where. >> Show up and don't tell him that you're. coming. >> Yep. I don't care. I'm going. >> Yep. >> I'm gonna find out why you don't want me. there one way or another. And if it's. some stupid ass reason like money, which. okay, money is important obviously,

>> but if then then say that. >> Then say it. Communicate. >> Exactly. >> Babe, we're really tight. I'm doing. this. I signed and joined the military. for stable track. The last thing I want. you to do is spend money on this when we. could spend it on a vacation together. once I get home. Boom. You could have. said that. He didn't say that. So that. leads me to believe there's another girl. and. I don't like him. [laughter]. >> Top comment doesn't either. >> That top comment, why the [ __ ] are you.

worried you're overreacting to him not. wanting you at his graduation? You are. severely underreacting to this. >> Yeah. And then they quote what OP said. Throughout our relationship, he's made. decisions without really involving me, including joining the military. And then. the person goes, "How long have you been. together?" She's 21, he's 27. So they haven't been together hopefully. that long. >> Never know. >> 3 years. So you're together 3 years.

hopefully. Then you get married. Your. husband doesn't even have a conversation. with you to tell you, "Hey, I'm thinking. about joining the military." He just. comes home one day and says, "I'm going. to basic in a couple weeks. Bye." I. can't relate to that, at least right. now. >> I'd be divorced already. >> Because I like part of me is like, "Oh. my god, that'd be so cool if I could. just do whatever and not be worried. about how anyone's felt about it.". [laughter].

But like I'm not like that. like over. I'm over here like I'll message my. boyfriend and be like, "Uh, I'm thinking. about signing up for a workout class. tonight." He's like, "Okay." And I'm. like, >> "Any reason why I shouldn't speak now or. forever pull your. >> Please give me a reason not to go to. Pilates, [laughter]. but I literally will like not book it. I'll find one I like and I'm like, >> I got to go ask him first." And it's he. never he never maybe would never do. that. But like but in my head I'm just. like well what if he has like.

>> a surprise. >> surprise dinner plans? I don't know. I. don't know. We overly communicate I. think. And like. >> I appreciate that. I appreciate an. overcommunication in my relationships. >> I just find it really nice and. >> I don't ever want to like make a plan. and then oops I forgot we had dinner. Like it's just nice to do. >> especially with big huge lifestyle. That's why I'm like, I can't relate to. this at all. And affect you both. >> And I'm like, I I feel I don't actually. want to be like that. Obviously, it's.

really disrespectful, but I feel like. maybe I could be a little bit more um I. could just book the workout class and. not have to ask for permission. [laughter]. cuz that would be probably nice. Probably. >> you'll get there. Yeah, >> you'll get there. There's your. resolution for the rest of the year. >> Okay. Mhm. I can't I got to ask. I got. to ask. What if there's surprise dinner? We have a wine delivery. Hello, sir. Hello. What are you looking at? >> Special appearance. Do you want to say hi? Say hi. >> Hi.

>> Oh, I can't make fun of him anymore. Get. killed for it. >> Wine has been delivered. We're back. So, people are just very curious how they. met. People are. speculating they see divorce in the. future. A lot of people then say, "I'm. thinking he's already got someone on the. side and that someone is coming to. graduation where she will pretend to be. the wife.". >> Mhm. >> She definitely needs to go to see what. he's hiding.

>> Sounds like he was partying with the. boys and met the other love of his life. while saying he was single. >> Mhm. >> Yes. >> Yeah. He clearly has a side piece or. another family who will be there. OP. needs to go, even if it's just. discreetly to see why he doesn't want. her there. The whole situation is beyond. strange. Yeah. Update, update, update, please. So, OP. shares this in another subreddit, r/ US. military significant other, same post,

and OP responds to a lot of people. OP. clarifies that the graduation letter she. received says, quote, "It is my distinct. honor to welcome you to our extended. family and I am pleased to invite you to. celebrate this milestone. Graduation. events are scheduled for dot dot dot dot. dot along with my husband saying I love. you." Well, what what miscommunication. do Okay, either you might be right. He.

sent it to the wrong person cuz he's. dumb. Or do he maybe send it to her. because the other person backed out. They got in a fight and then they were. like, "Never mind." And then then he. told her not to come. >> Yeah. I mean, he even like wrote her. little nickname on it. >> Oh, >> I love you big head. >> Oh, which. >> Oh, okay. Then not to the wrong person. >> I mean, if he's calling two girls big. head, like that would be a lot of people. when they're cheating just use babe or. pet names to not mix up stuff. I'm going.

to the mailing address is in his. handwriting. Imagine if you nickname all. of your affair partners big head. [laughter]. That's like if anyone called me big head. like get out of here. [laughter]. OP does have a dependent ID. We got it. just before he left for BMT. He is. actually enlisted. I received his TRS. FLT numbers. I've seen him on the.

Lackland photos website. I do send him. letters through Sandbox. There's nothing. that leads me to believe he is lying. about that. Basically, like, is he even. in the military or he's just staying. with someone else? Um, date update. Do we have an update? We don't have an update, Morgan. Oh, I. for sure thought this one was going to. be that she showed up there and it. hasn't happened yet. >> It hasn't happened yet. How can I confirm or deny he's cheating. until I actually attend his graduation?

It's pure speculation and so far I can. only guess as much as anyone else. I'll. find out when I go. Hell to the Yeah. Yeah. When is it? Do we have the date? So, as of 7 hours ago, his graduation. isn't until the end of the month, which. it's May 28th. >> But do you mean June? Like, does she. think we're already in June? >> No. I don't think people usually think. that.

>> Yeah. Okay. So, it's like what? This. weekend? Is it this weekend? His graduation isn't. until the end of the month. He still. does not want me to come. He said he'd. pay me back for the tickets. If I go, I. may not be back home before him. I'm not. sure if I'll be able to go without him. knowing at this point. Who cares? Yeah. That's your husband. >> Yeah. Again, something fishy is going on. here. >> No, no, no. This guy, this guy sucks. To. say, "I'll pay you back, babe. I'll pay. you for like then that whole argument of.

being like, I don't want you to spend. the money cuz I want to spend it like on. a vacation with you is out the window. So now he has no excuse. He really just. does not want you to come. He really has. another girl there. >> That's the only reason. >> A thousand%. You can't convince me. otherwise." If someone could convince me. of another reason in the comments, I'd. >> send him 20 bucks. >> Okay. Wait, actually, please do that. because I am so curious if you guys can. come up with anything that could. convince me otherwise. I would love to.

know. Okay, moving on to this next one. This is coming from r/w what should I. do? It's titled my 35 male friend 36. male loyalty tested my wife 40 female. without my knowledge. She failed. I feel. done with them both. What do I do? Oh, okay. Let's get into this. Been with my. wife 10 years, married for six. I. thought we were really happy. She's got.

a kid from a previous relationship. Dad. not in the picture. I've taken on the. role. We both work, me full-time, her. part-time. We live a good life. Holiday. abroad every few months. No real. financial worries. Both in pretty good. shape and plenty of love, affection, and. sex between us. I thought we'd be. together forever. On to my friend. His. wife left him in horrific circumstances. last year. He came home one day to find. her gone with their 2-year-old. She'd. left him to be with a drug dealer she.

met on Instagram. >> Lovely. It's a massive legal issue. that's destroyed him. Since then, he's. become very anti-women despite having a. great family full of women. He's. constantly telling us all how all women. are the same, etc., etc. Well, last week. he sent me a load of screenshots. Must. have been over 100 of them. Going back. to November of last year and finishing. on January 15th. He got another phone.

and started messaging my wife, pretending to be a man from a couple. hours away who got the wrong number. Within a week, he was getting nudes from. her, texting her, etc. By Christmas, she. was telling him she loves him. And the. final one was a photo of her walking. into a hotel room to meet him and then. angry messages from her asking where he. was. I went around to his house and was. distraught. He told me he had done this.

to six other friends of ours. Only my. wife failed. M. >> he had the phone with him and as I was. there she messaged him asking where he'd. gone and saying how much she misses him. He's shown me that she'd been sending. stuff like that the past week with no. response. I left there without really. saying anything and I went home and once. me and my wife were alone I confronted. her with the evidence. She started. crying and saying she doesn't know why.

she did it and it just started off as a. bit of fun at work and then she got. carried away. She said she feels like. she loves us both and doesn't want to. lose me. I don't know what to do, so I. just left and went to a hotel. I'm still. here now and unsure of what my next step. should be. I want to cut them both off, but I feel like I will miss my. stepdaughter so much. And my friends are. saying I can't be mad at my friend as he. did me a favor.

Do you want to know what the TLDDR is? >> Yeah. Friend catfished my wife and she. fell for it. Yeah. I mean that's that is. that's what that is. So I'm kind of. curious. I have some logistic questions. Logistical questions. So [laughter]. >> I Yeah. I'm just wondering like did. friend send a picture of somebody else. and then two did friend talk to wife on. the phone and did she not notice his. voice sounded very like did she fall in.

love off of text message she said I love. she said to him even when she was. confronted I love you both and she told. him after like a month of texting I love. you right month or two whatever so I'm. like did they have conversations on the. phone and some Hey, some may say that. that's not an important detail, but it. is for me. [laughter]. No mention of phone. calls. I'm seeing a lot in regards to. texting. He did apparently steal a man's.

pictures off of Twitter to pretend to be. him. So, OP's wife did think she was. talking to someone else. Like, they had. met before. They had met quite a few. times. He got her number because they. were put in a group chat together and so. that's how he got the number. >> Oh, wait. He said that he got the. pictures from someone she had met. >> No, he took them off of Twitter. >> Okay. Then what do you mean she had met. before?

>> She she had met that friend before. >> Oh, right. Right. Right. Yeah. So, I. don't see any mention of a phone call, which you would think because they've. met so much or. >> that she fell in love, you'd think there. would be more than just text combo, but. >> then again, >> doesn't take a lot for some people. >> Yeah, that's true. >> You know, >> Yeah. >> And like everyone can say, "Oh, our. relationship is great. There's love, affection, and sex." But like I mean, some people do just cheat because they. need that for whatever reason, no matter. how great their relationship is. So.

maybe she falls into that category. rather than needs are unmet in her. current relationship. Like maybe it's. something about like the forbiddenness. of it that like she. >> can't get enough of. Yeah. But also, how. crazy is that? >> Someone gets the wrong number and you. start texting them. That's how like. scammers get your info and then steal. your money. Wrong number. When are we. going golfing, Dave? You know what's so. funny is that I was like looking through. like really old screenshots of stuff and.

[gasps]. in college I had somebody that called. me. I don't He said, "Oh, sorry, wrong. number." And then I was like, "Yeah, no. problem." And then afterwards he texted. me and he's like, "You have a really. cute voice, by the way." No, no, but it. gets worse. And I was like, I didn't say. this to him. I was like, "Oh, thank. you." And then it dropped ended there. But where it gets worse is that I was. thinking he did, too. [laughter]. >> [gasps]. >> You didn't share pics? >> No. >> No. I don't know who it is.

>> You don't have the number anymore. How. long ago? >> I mean, it was when I was in college. >> Oh god. Yeah. I know. >> Yeah. That's crazy. >> I guess on the screenshot it might be in. there. [laughter]. >> That's wild. [gasps]. >> So, I can see how it happens. >> I mean, I guess. But again, then you're. talking on the phone. Like. >> Mhm. >> For me, I would have a really hard time. falling in love just over text. Yeah. Like specifically you cuz you don't like. to text that much. >> I hate texting. I hate talking on the. phone.

>> I hate I just hate technology. >> You guys, it's so confusing to me. because. >> I hate a voice memo. >> She sits here and listens to me, you. know, talk in circles for hours and yet. like I try to send her like a 60-second. voice memo and she's like, "Nope, try. again in text." And I'm like, "No, I'm. driving. and just listen to it. >> Thank god iPhone has the feature where. it shows you what the voice memo said. >> You can't do that cuz it doesn't show. context. >> That's all I That's all I do. >> Morgan, that could miss so many things.

You might think that's something that I. think is hilarious that I'm saying as a. joke that I'm saying it really serious. and it might piss you off. >> It's a bad idea. That could get us in. trouble. >> You should just call me. >> Then answer. I'll answer more. [laughter] So top comment on this. Well, that's a [ __ ] thing that your friend. did, but it's more concerning that your. wife fell for it. She was going to sleep. with this stranger. And to top it off, she is the only one that fell for it out. of the other wives. I will leave it at. that. I would love to be a fly on the.

wall when she finds out your friend. catfished her. Oh. Oh. Oh, wow. Yeah, I thought that. Oh. Oh, that's so embarrassing. Oh my god. Oh, that makes so much more sense why she. told him that she loves him. Oh, that's. so embarrassing. She didn't know that. she's catfish. Oh my god. [laughter]. Okay. OP responds, I think I could get. past it if it was just texting, but I. can't get past that going to meet him.

Yeah. Like, and so people ask, was your. friend in the hotel? Like, how do you. get the pictures? OP does share that he. was in his car and took pictures of her. walking into the hotel. M. >> So, she was like really making an effort. to cheat. It wasn't just text. It wasn't. like a little pen pal. >> Yeah. No, this guy had time also. >> Also, like you're not going to have any. friends if you keep testing their wives. >> I mean, you got to think about how.

messed up it is that he did it that. long. >> Yeah. >> He literally Yeah. Also, you're getting. nudes of my wife, dude. That's not cool. >> No, no, no. it the the minute that she. sent one. I mean, even that it obviously. is. questionable, but like but the minute. that she sent one is like the moment. where you can go to your friend and be. like, "Hey, I I test her." But the fact. that you made her fall in love with you, meet up with you, and then and then. we're texting her for from November to.

like three months. >> Yeah. like that. That's very concerning. on the friend's part. >> for a few different reasons. I get that. the friend is traumatized right now and. that's his uh his mo, but it's not a. good one. No, no. Also, in order to solicit those. nudes, he is sexing her, too. So, you're. sexing my wife. Yeah, I get what you're. doing. You're trying to see if she'll.

cheat on me, but that's also not your. job. Like, you're my friend and you're. sexing my wife. Are you sending. dickpics? >> Even if it's not you, >> right? >> Like, you're sending her stuff. You're. >> like inappropriately enticing her and. creating this relationship where she's. falling in love with you based on what. you're saying. Like, >> that's crazy. >> Yeah. I do not blame at all OP for. wanting to be done with both of them. I. think that's a fair assessment.

So, we do get an update. Thank god. Finally. [laughter]. So, update comes a couple of days later. Thank you for everyone who commented on. my post. There was so many of you. I. couldn't reply to them all. I'll address. a couple of things from my post. A lot. of people said my wife did nothing. wrong. Who? [laughter]. She went to a hotel to meet another man. for sex. There are photos of her at the. hotel waiting. She messaged saying she.

was there and quote, "I purposefully. hadn't had sex with him for ages, so. when I get my hands on you, I'll be. ripping your clothes off and my own.". Yeah. Then messages of her asking where. he is. And even a week later when he. stopped replying saying she misses him. and pictures of herself saying how much. she still wants him. A few people said. my friend wasn't catfishing her and he. was sending photos of himself and she. knew my friend is white and dumpy. The.

pictures were of a black adult film star. stolen from his Twitter. Now on to the. update. First and foremost importantly, I met my stepdaughter yesterday. We met. at a park and when we saw each other, we. both started crying and just hugged for. 5 minutes. Every memory of her from when. I first met her went through my head and. I didn't want to let her go for fear of. never hugging her again. >> We sat on a park bench and the first. thing she asked is what happened. She's. 15 and I didn't see a reason to lie. I. said her mom got catfished and she fell.

for it and has been having an online. affair for a few months and told another. man she loved him. I left out the nudes. and the hotel bit. >> That's good. My stepdaughter said her. mom had told her that all she had done. was message an old friend and I got. jealous, but she said that she knew I. wasn't like that and her aunt wife's. sister had told her that her mom had. cheated and I had done nothing wrong. >> I feel like that's so messed up. Just. very manipulative of your child who's.

15. It's just it's just unfair. Like I. obviously it's not her biological dad, but like there's a big huge relationship. there. at this point. >> And then to do something that's like so. hurtful to your partner, but then to try. to paint them negatively to the other. person that they love is just so unfair. Like at that point, you got to own it. Like, and the fact that. >> on the sword, [ __ ]. >> Yeah. And it sounds like OP It sounds. like OP didn't include the stuff that.

would be. >> She kept out the most damning evidence. >> Yeah. She got catfished and she fell in. love and. there was the most like PG version that. could have been in a Disney movie. Like. there there's a lot of other people that. would have like crashed out and been. like your mom's a insert a lot of. derogatory terms here. Exactly. So like. which. >> is awful, but I'm saying there are. people that like just get so emotional. because they're so hurt that like they. would say that. So the fact that OP.

gathered self and then went about this. that way and then just to have like his. partner not only do that to him but then. like double down and be like he's a. crazy jealous guy. Like that's just. that's not cool. I know. OP goes on to. say, "I told her I have hundreds of. screenshots, but I won't show her them. She begged to see one so she could know. I tried to find a nonsexual one and I. showed her one where her mom said, quote, "I love you more after 10 weeks.

than I do him after 10 years." Oh, my. stepdaughter was as horrified as I was. and just said, quote, "Oh my god." After. that, we sat and talked for a couple of. hours about everything. She said she. still wants me as a part of her life and. when I get my own place, she'll be over. all the time. She said I'm still her dad. and always will be, even after I told. her I planned to divorce her mom. She. said her auntie and her grandma both. encouraged her to stay in touch with me.

because she told them that she was. scared I didn't want her anymore. >> I said nothing could be further from the. truth. I gave her a lift back home and. we've been texting non-stop since. sending stupid videos to each other and. she said her grandma said we can use her. kitchen to bake together again. So, we. are doing that later today. As for my. wife and my friend, I've told my wife I. want a divorce, which caused a barrage. of texts and phone calls I ignored. I've. told my friend I want low contact with. him, but I did ask why he didn't stop.

once he got nudes. And he said, quote, "Because you don't get jealous, and I. thought you'd probably just find it. funny." Which is probably true. If she. told me a wrong number was texting, I. probably would say flirt with it for a. laugh. Lol. I do get people's point. though when they say I shouldn't be mad. at him because if it wasn't for him, it. would have been someone else. But he did. target her insecurities.

He knew she was insecure about her. height and said, quote, "First time I. finally meet an Amazonian woman at a bar. and we have a good time. She gives me a. false number." And he knows that she. struggles with having an athletic build. And he mentioned his ideal woman would. be tall and strong built and how he. doesn't get the trend for short women. with big boobs and bums. But at the same. time, she's a [ __ ] detective for the. police force and should have recognized. she was being played. Stop.

Sorry, it's not an exciting update. I mean, that'll do. [laughter]. I'll take that one. Um, >> also knowing that like if if some random. ass number texted me like, damn, I can't believe the first time I meet. some short little blonde girl with big. tits, she ghosts me. I'd be like, how. does he know? [laughter] I feel. attacked. when you feel like like oh.

they're messing with me like this is so. targeted. >> I think that when the the insecurities. are like that deep then when somebody is. speaking to them you don't want to. believe anything else. That's true. You. know what I mean? Like it's like you. that's what you want to believe so. you're going to believe it. There are. people who are catfished who have that. gut feeling that they know that they're. being catfished and they don't want to. explore further. They don't want to.

know. They they just want to believe it. because they love they love that so. much. They don't want to see behind the. curtain and find Oz, you know, like so I. I'm not completely surprised at this. >> specifically like completely targeting. her insecurities. I think what's. annoying to me is that she says, "I'm. more in love with you in 10 weeks than I. have been with this person in 10 years.". And then gets surprised that he wants a. divorce. Like the fact that she's like,

he was like, "I I told her I wanted a. divorce and then she blew up my phone.". What? What? What are you confused about? Yeah. So do you. You want the divorce. You want the divorce. You're more in. love with a guy that's catfishing you. for 10 weeks than you are with your. 10-year partner who loves your daughter. dearly. You want the divorce. Shut up. You're. clearly missing something. So, you're. just upset you got caught and it's.

ending the way it is. You wanted to have. your cake and eat it, too. OP does have. another post that was posted just 3 days. ago. Just found it. Not another update. per se because the original thread I was. reading was posted in. scroll scroll scroll 4 months ago. >> So this post 3 days ago is pretty cute. It is titled I got wolf whistled and cat. called by a woman in a car last Friday.

and it's honestly in the top five things. that have ever happened to me in my. life. It's your friend in a wig. >> [laughter]. >> Sorry. I've been in therapy the last. three months and that one compliment has. made me feel better than hours of. therapy. And OP just goes on to share in this. post. I was crossing the street in my. work clothes. It was a warm day. I've. been working indoors all day doing a. physical job and I felt like a sweaty. mess. I left my tool belt around my.

waist which was annoying me, making me. uncomfortable. So I also look kind of. pissed. As I'm crossing the road, I just. happened to look at a car. I looked up, made eye contact with the woman, and she. made like a kissy face motion at me and. smiled. I thought she was being a bit. arcsy because she thought I was staring. at her. As I got next to her, she wound. down the window and whistled at me and. shouted, "Oi, you." So, I looked over. and she said, "You're [ __ ] gorgeous. If I wasn't married." [laughter]. And then she drove off. Since then, I.

feel like I'm floating on air when I. walk. I feel 10 feet tall. I don't think. I've ever had a stranger compliment me. like that. 3 months ago, I found out my. friend had been catfishing my wife and. loyalty tested her. She failed. miserably. And since then, I felt like. [ __ ] I've been going to 2 hours of. therapy a week. I've joined social clubs. to make friends, started working out, changed my diet, >> anything to try and lift the fog. >> Since that 5-second interaction, I feel. like a new man, like I tackle anything.

and win. Note to self, holler at people. more often. [laughter]. It's the first thing I think of when I. wake up and the last thing I think of. when I fall asleep. I know we are. supposed to be angry and not enjoy being. cat-c calledled, but oh my god, do I. feel alive. Dude, I It's so funny you. say this because I am not kidding. I. just thought about this the other day. I. didn't get cat called, but like I had. like you know when you can just like. when you're crossing the street and you.

like see like someone like looking at. you and then I was just thinking about. how like. >> I have never been one to like take. offense to it. And it's so funny cuz. like when I was a little like not a. little kid but like I don't know I was. like 15 years old like walking around. Lake Harriet with like my two. girlfriends and some guys were like oh. hey like whistling at us whatever and my. friends were like ew like that's so. weird and like don't don't know that. And I was just like [laughter].

yeah that's I'm not going to be so. flattered about that for the next year. No, no chance. I'm just going to. [laughter]. >> My favorite is the one. >> out here in LA. You were just like. walking down the street and some guy saw. you in his car and there like wasn't. parking so he literally just stopped his. car in the busy streets of LA. Like you. guys, this was Sunset Boulevard and he. stopped his car and like ran out to talk. to Lauren and he's getting honked at.

[laughter]. >> like nuts. Honestly, maybe that's why. maybe I like invited that energy over. time that like that. >> you just don't have a resting [ __ ]. face. >> Like you really don't like you look very. approachable and just like I mean you're. so cute. >> Oh, you're so cute. >> You are. >> I have my days. You Well, today is one. of them. >> I have my days. Um but it's just so. funny. But I think we do need to like. there's a difference between making.

someone uncomfortable and cat calling. them. I'm like, if it's a woman walking. down the street and it's like a group of. dudes, that's uncomfortable. >> But I do think we need to be more open. complimenting people. Like we got coffee. the other day and the guy was so cute. He was just so nice and bubbly and warm. and I just literally want to be like, "You're so cute.". >> Yeah, you were saying that. >> I'm like, I wish it wasn't weird to do. that. >> To say that. Yeah. >> But like I don't know. Like you're so. nice. Like thank you. This interaction. made my day. Yeah. >> Just telling people nice compliments.

that aren't going to weird them out, >> right? >> Cuz there's nothing better. And like. look at the change it's made in this. dude's life. >> I know. >> Yeah. And that's why I'm like I'm not. saying I'm not saying this is like a PSA. to go and like cat call people by any. means, but I don't know why for some. reason I just like didn't get that like. that feature where I'm like like I get. flattered if anyone. I don't. >> So I feel I feel OP is all I'm trying to. say. >> You feel OP. I like that. I feel OP. I'm.

good. Good good. [laughter]. >> Amaze. Amaze. Amazed. >> You're really cute. Did you know that? >> I have not been feeling cute. >> You look really cute. I actually You. know what? When you turned around and. walked over here after looking in the. mirror, I was going to say, "You look. really good.". >> Thank you. >> But instead, we just started talking. about other things. >> Thank you. >> But maybe I should. pause the conversation. >> Thank you. >> And say those moments when they come to. mind. I will do that more often, too. I've really been struggling lately cuz.

like I did my chin surgery and I still. have a lot of residual swelling and I've. also like. not gotten back into my health kick as. much as I want to. So, I've been feeling. a little meh lately. So, I appreciate. that. Thank you. >> Well, you don't look me. >> Thank you. You know what else is meh, though? >> What? >> This next one. This is coming from r/ relationship. advice titled I, 24 female, dumped my.

boyfriend, 27, male, and called him. dirty. Now he's acting like I ruined his. life and self-esteem. >> Ruined. >> I'm working on it, [ __ ] ass. [laughter]. >> Same. About 4 years ago, I got dumped by. a guy I thought was the love of my life. He was cheating on me for months before. that and I knew about it but refused to. acknowledge it. I don't even know how to. explain it. I was just so in love I felt. like I couldn't function without him.

>> Anyways, one of the people that offered. me most support then was his absolute. best friend who chose to stay friends. with me after I was dumped and stopped. talking to my ex. We started dating a. couple of months after the breakup. I. truly loved him. He was smart, handsome, funny, tall, pretty eyes, you name it. It took me some time to actually feel. like I wanted to be in a relationship. with him, mostly due to the insane guilt.

and knowing the fact that he was my ex's. best friend. It just felt wrong. We were. in a relationship for 3 and 1/2 years. And towards the beginning of the third. year, it really started getting worse. He lost his job, refused to get a. full-time position because everything. was just wrong for him. We lived. together, so I paid a significant amount. of our monthly expenses. He also started. to lack hygiene, and generally looked. worse. He was bathing maybe once a week, didn't brush his teeth every night,

constantly walked around in the same. clothes even though I washed his stuff. regularly. He wouldn't take me on dates, walks. He would refuse to drive his car. if I didn't pay for the gas. And when I. refused, he would just stay home and. ignore every responsibility that. required him to get in the car. He also. started being a smartass, at the lack of. a better word. Every opinion I shared. was wrong, and it felt like our. conversations were just him mansplaining.

things to me. A week ago, I broke up. with him. I was so done with everything. and every conversation was just him. disagreeing with my feelings. Anyways, I. wanted to be civil, but the moment I sat. him down and I told him, it was like he. went through all the stages of grief at. once. He begged me to stay and then. cried, then yelled at me, and eventually. he told me, and I quote, "You suck at. giving head anyway.".

This got me so mad. Not because I felt. personally attacked, but because it was. such a disrespectful thing to say in a. moment like this. My response was. basically something along the lines of. quote, "I don't. I'm just too disgusted. to have your dirty dick in my mouth.". Brilliant. Then he cried again, [laughter]. looked at me like he wanted to slap the. [ __ ] out of me and stormed out. He. texted me a few times saying how awful I.

was to him and how I broke his heart and. ruined his friendship with his best. friend. He also told me I made him feel. unattractive and wounded his. self-esteem. So, I will be covering his. therapy bill. >> M good luck with that, buddy. [laughter]. >> What can I do to resolve this? I'd still. be willing to work on us. >> What. >> if he was reflective? >> Excuse me. Any ideas how I should get. through to him? Or is it better to give. up? >> Don't piss me off right now,

>> girl. [laughter]. Girly pop. Hey, girly pop. >> We have a word with you. [snorts]. >> What? >> Mhm. >> Someone who can physically touch her, [laughter]. >> kidnap her. Kidnap her. >> in a consensual way. >> In a cons. Yeah, definitely. And some. talk some sense in her. This is crazy. Someone take her to Chili's and get. drunk. That's a good one, too. Just like. get her out of the house. Someone take. me to Chili's and get drunk. Can we go?

Looking at you. Can we go? I missed out. on the wicked drinks. They looked so. good. >> Is there a Chili's around here? Or. Applebee's? Apple. That's. >> half off abs, man. That's my home. [gasps]. >> I don't really know about Chili's, but. like that could I could get down with. that. But like Applebee's like there's. there's some heart and soul in that. place. Anyway, there really is. Where is. So, do we have anyone near? But we we. can move on. But any Is there one near? [laughter]. >> Yeah, for sure. >> All right, >> we'll find one. >> All right.

>> You know where I went the other day? Rainforest Cafe. >> No way. >> Also a vibe. >> Wow. >> Yeah, there's only like six or seven. left. Not many. They're going down. >> So cool. A Mall of America. >> Yeah, it was pretty good. Yeah, this one. though. Yeah, it's better to [laughter]. give up. Give up. Cut your losses. give. up. Send him your therapy bill. I'm just like, what? No words. [laughter].

The top comment, quote, "You sucked at. giving head anyways," is an insane. answer. Makes me think he went after you. for your looks, plus you were. vulnerable. Then he turned right into a. mama's boy. Maybe stop being in a. relationship for a while. You know what. would piss me off more than anything? You tell me. Is the fact that he said. you ruined my relationship. with my best friend. You did that, sir.

>> That was your choice. >> That was you. You could have said bye. >> Yeah, exactly. Bye. Bye-bye. Nice. knowing you. >> You didn't have to date me. You didn't. have to pursue me. You didn't have to. still been cordial. >> You didn't have to do any of those. things. Like, what? What? That was She. didn't make you do anything. Unless she was hypnotizing you, and we. don't know about it. Uh, pretty sure she. wasn't. That's on you, buddy. Yeah, I. think he's just having a little buyer's. remorse. And, you know, maybe he's going.

through a funk. Maybe he's dealing with. some mental health issues, but that. doesn't give you the right to then blame. her for everything, right? >> Like, you kind of need to work on your. mental health and get back on track and, you know, be in a healthy, happy spot. >> Yeah. And if it was this relationship. that's dragging you down, then hey, go. your own ways, you're better apart, you. get back on track, I'm sure you can make. friends with your buddy again. >> Yeah. >> Guys become friends again over less,

>> maybe bigger, >> you never know. >> Guys become friends over more intense. issues. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> I mean, last story, this guy was. contemplating still having his low. contact, not even with him. >> I have people in my life that they have. friends that they're still friends with. guys. I'm thinking guys in my life. specifically. I'm not trying to be super. identifying. >> Um, but I have guys in my life that have. had the shittiest shittiest friends and. >> they're still super close with them. >> Yeah. >> Like I think guys operate a little. differently in their relationship.

sometimes. >> Some of them. Yeah. >> And I think maybe it's because they're. not as emotionally vulnerable. So. >> they're like. >> I'm speculating, but. >> you like sports. All right. >> You want to go hunting? Okay. >> That's cool with me. Yeah. So, >> um I think things are changing though. I. think that like people are getting so. much more in touch with the genuine true. connection. And I don't know, at least like I've. been hearing it and seeing it where you.

know there used to be like this common. norm of like guy friendships being like. pretty surface level. >> and I think that like it's been. >> it's been changing. I love that. I want. to have the intense emotional. relationships women typically have. I. would love that for them. Everyone. deserves that to have the support and. the whimsy. Find the whimsy, dude. >> Whimsy. >> Find that whimsy. Go dress up with your. friends and go. >> cosplay around a park or I don't know,

paint each other's nails. Like whatever. you want to do for fun. >> You should try everything at least once, right? >> Totally. I whimsy. >> also just reminded me of it unlocked a. memory that I completely had stored away. and forgotten about. But in college, one of my friends said the phrase. whiskey dick and I thought she said.

wispy dick. >> and when I repeated to her, she could. she never let it go. >> Wispy. She wispy dick. I really do like. the word wispy. It's got a ring to it. She would like interact and she'd be. like, [laughter] "Oh my god, I'm just. envisioning the car car.". >> Exactly. That's what she would do. And. guys, and like stop. I just thought. that's what you said. >> We don't have an update from our lovely. OP yet. >> They are pretty active in other subs.

They are sharing things like they're a. psychologist. They've posted an r/drugs. Why am I always tripping out when I. smoke? [laughter] They're building a PC and. they're looking for advice on building a. PC. So maybe we'll get some updates. I. mean, they do share pictures of their. dog. It's like a really cute little. blood hound type dog. Looks like a. little hound. And here's a picture of it. wearing antlers. >> So it is giving real account. And I hope.

she sees the comments and is then like, "Oh yeah, no. I got I got to run. Like. this ain't this ain't cool. See, I. assume all of them are real. So when you. say that I'm like [gasps] I've been. checking some fake. >> No, I've been checking a lot more. because I think like a lot of times. people will if they are going to karma. farm, they will very quickly have a post. go viral and then share nudes or an Only. Fans link on their account. M. >> So, I have been checking more. >> and I really look for like verified. email accounts been around for a while,

things like that. Yeah, like the. military one. >> Are there nudes on Reddit? >> Yeah. Yeah. >> Whoa. >> Yeah, there's like there's a lot there's. a lot you can see on Reddit. >> So, you must have come across a lot of. nudes then. >> Yeah, even like Twitter though. I know. I was researching a case for clues and. one of our researchers on it like on the. script included a link for this. suspect's.

porn. >> Mhm. >> And I didn't think I'm like there's no. way Yelina would have like actually. found this dude's porn. Click the link. and it's literally. and it's on Twitter and I'm just like. yeah. No, it's crazy. I. >> internet is wild. One of my friends was. seeing a girl whose mom was on Twitter. posting like. >> I remember that. >> Yes. Like. >> she was a sex worker. >> It was like a school girl. scene is what I remember. I mean there.

was a ton. The entire profile was that. But but like this girl. was not at all in the scene and she's an. adult and her two parents like that's. what they did for a living. I think it. would be tough like dating people and. knowing that they're going to find your. mom and like specifically when you're. younger like around those like teen. young teen ages like that's and it's. just it feels too accessible like. >> I'm not trying to change the way things.

work but like it feels so accessible to. just be like. >> on Twitter where like where you could. just pop up like oh so it's free like. are you interested in it like you might. like this page and then like come across. like your teen crushes mom. It's like, "Oh, shoot." We have one last one for us. here and then we're heading over to. Patreon. >> Okay, so this one is coming from Today I. [ __ ] Up. It is titled Today I [ __ ]. Up: Breaking My Wife's Heart in 20. Pieces.

>> I don't know if I want to hear this one. >> My wife is pregnant and she is a saint. She's done everything for me and turned. my life around. She supported me when I. was just a piece of [ __ ] without a job. She's shown me what family means. She is. so strong and she works so hard even. while pregnant and I try to get her to. slow down, but she won't. We even spent. the last two weekends ripping out the. carpet and painting our son's nursery to. get prepared. My wife had this old snow. globe that looked like a duck in a.

bathtub that she got from her mother as. a little girl. As I was moving the. furniture back into our son's nursery. after we finished painting, it fell and. broke. She broke down and she's pissed. and I can't blame her. I looked. everywhere for one and the only place I. can find to buy it, it's not even the. same. It's a cheap replacement is in. Singapore and it won't ship to the US. I. don't know how to make it right. I have. apologized. It just meant so much to.

her. I really hate myself right now. H. >> I know it's really sad. Luckily, >> okay, people come through. >> Mhm. >> This is again the beauty of Reddit. and people start sharing links on eBay. and they share a link for the snow. globe, bathtub with duck globe music and. bubbles motion. >> And it was $19.

>> Oh. However, it sold very quickly. So, the top comment, here's one for sale. Next comment down, and one was sold. today. Next comment, someone is mean. Next, I hope not. Maybe it was him. If. not, I hope they bought it for him and. will ship it to him. I want to trust. that there are very special people in. this world who would do that for him and. his wife. OP responds, "Update. It was.

me. >> A [laughter]. yay. >> So, he got it. >> I have no business getting teeyed over. that. Opie does have an edit. Thanks. everyone for your thoughtful posts and. good ideas. One helpful Redditor led me. to a replacement product that is the. same thing and I bought it off eBay. I. also salvaged the parts like you guys. said and I'm going to have her dad 3D. print a bathtub and put the intact duck. into it. And then like you guys said,

there is both. Thanks again. I'll update. how she reacts. Nothing. Not yet. >> Oh, a lot of people were like, "Why is she. making you feel so bad? It's an. accident." Opie's like, "I feel that. way. Like, it has nothing to do with. her. Like, let me be clear. >> We love each other fiercely. Like, I. don't want to see her in any pain.". >> OP's like, "I'm a little dramatic." I. will admit, but no official update yet, but I already know like it's going to be. emotional. It's going to be teareyed and.

just feel so special. Like. >> when someone surprises you with. something that you've just been having. your eye on or you mentioned one time, >> when you feel so loved and seen like. that, >> nothing better. >> Like the horse painting that. >> Yeah. >> Justin got for you. >> Yeah, that's a great example. Yeah. Me, my mom, and Justin were walking by this. artist in Venice and he had this. beautiful horse painting and he wouldn't.

talk to us. Like he just like wouldn't. really give us the time, but I loved it. And so Justin went back, bought it, and. then surprised me with it for my. birthday. And we had only been dating. for. like a couple months. >> Yeah, it was pretty new. >> Like three months at that point. >> Yeah, it was good. He's such a cutie. Sweet. He literally brought us wine. Just a little cutie. >> But okay, >> cheers. Cheers. We're off to Patreon, my.
