I'm your host, Megan, and I'm joined by my co-host, the fantastic, wonderful producer extraordinaire, the only reason why this podcast exists and ever goes up, Melissa. Hello. it exists also because you talk it does but i mean to be fair i i that you you talk a lot so i talk a lot i talk into the existence and i'm talking to avoid otherwise like that would just be true yeah i'd be like those little kids who pretend to have i guess your your niece just pretending to have a youtube channel talking to a phone and never uploading it hey guys what's up
Starting point is 00:00:52 make sure you like and subscribe but there's nothing i think that's so funny it's like a thing that kids do though yeah they do a lot of them now it's wild oh how the times have changed if you are new here this is an advice podcast you call in leave us voicemails and then we give you fantastic wonderful life-changing advice and what we lack in credentials we make up for in opinions i got it that time you did i was ready finally and uh if you want to call in for an upcoming episode you can leave us a voicemail at 310-694-0976 and international listeners you You can send us an audio message at meganpodcasts at gmail.com.

Starting point is 00:01:34 Keep it under three minutes or you will be cut off. And write it down. Practice. And then you won't forget any important details. We don't need to know your zodiac sign unless we literally have so much time left. And we know every other really important specific detail. Let us know your pronouns and anything else. Would you like to bully them into making sure that they don't waste their time on the calls?
Starting point is 00:01:56 here's the thing of how not to waste your time sit down maybe make a little bulleted list of everything that you would like to talk about and then write out a paragraph and practice at least three times and then time yourself and then call in because um also when you leave multiple voicemails you get points deducted as well you do there's i mean there's a lot of opportunity for points deducted and you don't want to have points deducted because melissa remembers i do remember i really do oh and if you have an update for a call do the same thing just call us send us an email yeah it's a different thing just send us an email give us a like one sentence like if there was a too long didn't read uh this would be it just one sentence
Starting point is 00:02:48 about what roughly your update is and then we will contact you hell yeah and um yeah that's that's all you need to know that's the important shit what's new with you uh i wouldn't say anything is necessarily new with me i'm just trying to make a whole bunch of decisions of like outlining life um so that's what's going on with me like outlining work life or just outlining your life both okay yeah like are you gonna like move like shave your head and move across the country like what do you mean like like like day to day life okay if you're not about to do any pray love no i'm not gonna do that okay i i feel like you need to have significant amount of money to do that without a doubt yeah and a nancy myers movie yes you need
Starting point is 00:03:43 the movie i might be taking over like my family's rental properties i might be yeah holy shit so i'm just figuring i had a conversation with some my mom and her siblings about like putting me on the deed so that we could make this stuff skyrocket like my great grandparents built like houses and we've got like one two three four five six houses yeah i'm constantly like mons and i talk about this all the time i am constantly every day like realizing how little money i grew up with like i'm constantly right like oh yeah yeah yeah this makes sense this makes sense that's impressive in arkansas yeah yeah yeah and it's all like on the same like i wouldn't say it's like a street between them but they're all on the same in the
Starting point is 00:04:43 same was the plan for you and like your sisters to all have the houses like next to each other did you ever want no no it was like my grandmother and great-grandmother well i mean during my lifetime because my great-grandfather had died they had houses next to each other and then there were one two three four five seven other houses that they just like built in like by hand and rented out but they're like old now and i need and it needs like complete renovation and i want to take on the project oh my god that sounds fun that sounds stressful yeah but like you know since i'm not there oh yeah virtually yeah virtually doing that is potentially gonna be rough yeah that's that that's cool i my dream is to like flip houses and like do that kind of
Starting point is 00:05:40 whole thing and like design them but like what i've discovered is i guess the point of flipping houses it's like make a profit and so like you like not that you cut quarters but you do things like as affordable as you can to then like you know turn a profit yeah and see i don't want to do that i want to make like really beautiful or innate kind of things and so i think i just need to play sims again yeah see what i want to do is because we have there's so much land like a ton of land and i think i want to make because they were like duplexes and then single houses and i think that since there's so much land it i think i want to make them so that they're like quadplexes or something because i think you could make more and i know like i'm not no one in my
Starting point is 00:06:22 family is capable but we already own the land so like that takes out a lot of you know money that i wouldn't have to yeah that's so cool yeah look at you boss bitch are you gonna host snl now what were you gonna say babe god no it's down it went boss beige not babe ever you know how i feel about babe and girl i like babe i know that's what i'm like i didn't know if you're gonna say it ironically and then you were like uh i bail out and i'm just gonna turn this into bitch no i wouldn't do that to you even ironically it's like calling you girly ironically um no i will not host snl because um i know where my talents lie and so should other people i'm trying to think if there's anything i've done or anything that's new with me or
Starting point is 00:07:19 anything i don't know this whole week is going by so fast this weekend i'm like fully vaccinated but i'm just excited i'm waiting for the only other person who is fully vaxxed as of like the day we're recording is lily and then you will be in like a month-ish from now marylisa jay and jay is back on the market now so i might get that one and then oh yeah but i don't know i don't know um but yeah so i'm excited for every like oh i just can't i can't wait to like we're all vaccinated it's just gonna be a good fucking time i'm so stoked i'm just me too yeah all i do is stay up till like 3 a.m watching the blacklist every night so my life is just super fucking exciting so we're gonna start with an update so we're gonna hear
Starting point is 00:08:16 from a caller and they're gonna let us know what has happened since we talked to them and this call is from season seven episode nine and i asked some invasive questions okay so like don't come for me like she was okay with it she said it was fine she said it was fine all right so uh my original call was about my boyfriend being a little bit intimidated by using a toy in the bedroom um so I brought it up to him that I wanted to like pick something out online and then we could use it and he was like not having it because he's like super insecure about how he let how long he lasts in bed and he thought he wasn't like doing enough for me uh so I told him before that I like don't mind how long he lasts because he always goes around for round two and you guys were like
Starting point is 00:08:59 confused by that that was focusing on penetrative sex um and you said that it sounded like he wasn't eating me out but he does i would just like to note that okay so he's not he's not that terrible um but he's not good well there's that yeah so so you guys have like a lot of questions uh basically is he getting off before me every time no he gets off every time i don't but i do get off before him like some of the time what's the percentage of that yeah not a good it's not a lot i know i'm gonna say 20 i was gonna say 18 20 yeah okay so the thing is though you guys also mentioned is he eating me out yes he is but that really doesn't do much for me that's why i wanted to bring in the vibrator
Starting point is 00:09:56 probably should have specified that and then i focused on round two because i just enjoy penetrative sex more than yeah oral so i was like well i mean like we're doing it i'm gonna enjoy it so um basically here's like the big update so he got really defensive about all that I was like fine whatever if you don't want to do it we don't do it and then I was like well I've got a coupon not like a grandma but I got a coupon so I'm gonna get myself something and I'm just sitting next to him and I'm scrolling through and I'm like I think I'm gonna get this and I ask him and I'm like can I ship this to your house because I live at my parents house and he lives on his own both vaccinated by the way um so yeah and I was like can I get the ship to your house
Starting point is 00:10:37 because like I don't want to get that ship to my parents house and he was like yeah sure whatever and so the day comes it's arrived at his house and he's like oh it's here and I go over and I visit him and he is like super curious about it the whole time I didn't even tell him what I got because I knew that he was like not into it and I was like whatever we don't have to do anything he goes what would you get and i was like oh i got this this and this and he goes well can i see it and he gets all like it like into it at that point because i just brought it in and we end up using it and it was a good time and i actually finished before him so that was good but then i took it home and it hasn't come back yes okay so i'm gonna ask you like a very invasive question and you can
Starting point is 00:11:19 just be like shut the fuck up i'm not gonna answer this could you give me like could you give me a play-by-play of like when you have when you're having sex like does it start with like you're going down on him like is it like because that's what I'm curious about where it's like not only like okay he's eating you out oh actually before we get into that part do you enjoy oral have you enjoyed oral sex with other partners no no I've never really enjoyed it doesn't do much for me okay is it in like um this makes me like uncomfortable kind of way like this doesn't feel like this feels too intimate or is it just like is it kind of like scratching something that's not itching scratching something that's not itching like it's not bad I don't feel like
Starting point is 00:11:59 violated or like medicinal or nothing it's just like doesn't really do much so I'm gonna just go out on a limb and say that you probably just have not had someone who's great at it yeah because like I agree it's everyone has the same everyone's got the same parts in that way and like if you are because I would also say like if you're like everything all that matters in all of this is the clit and like the clits there when oral sex and like penetrative if you're like all of that kind of stuff but it's like if they're not hitting it while they're like going down on you you have way less control versus like if you're having sex you can like maneuver your body to like you know like angle it in a way that it can be like closer to hitting it and all of that but like when it's
Starting point is 00:12:45 like bad oral sex is like bad sushi it's like there is like nothing good about it like there is no like well i'm kind of into it like it's just kind of like you're laying there it's like someone's licking your arm like when it's not when it's not hidden i do want to say too though we had elections of g's all on a while ago and she did say that she doesn't enjoy oral sex yeah i i think that there there's like a there are people who like aren't really into it but i would also most of the time and that might be wrong but like most of the time like people it's like it just like is not i don't know i think of it kind of more like sucking a dick or whatever that is like this is really unpleasant versus like oh this is just like literally not doing
Starting point is 00:13:24 anything for me in the way that like it doesn't even really feel sexual so um i would say like that if you are into interested in like potentially making that like better like i'm going down on you i would focus on that too um because i think that will make it like far more enjoyable but like back to my original invasive question like what's your what's like the low like what would you say the timeline is the outline give me the outline of like fucking okay it's normally he starts like feeling me up for whatever and then he'll go down on me he enjoys that he wants to like get me to come he that's like his goal but like and then I'm like all right once I realize I'm like this isn't going anywhere I'm like okay why don't I help you out for a little bit and then we do that
Starting point is 00:14:15 and then typically it's about two minutes later we're done yeah so does he think that you are like when you're like done with when you're like okay let's switch over to you does he think that you are coming or does he think that you're like out of it and you're just like oh I just like I'm like I don't is it like does he think that you're coming or does he think that you don't really care about coming in that moment he definitely knows i'm not coming because i told myself that i would never lie to another man that i came and once i started dating him because i was like i'm just done but lying about it but like he he probably does think that i'm like all right cool yeah because i mean like that's definitely i've like definitely had that before where it's like then
Starting point is 00:14:54 i have to explain to my partner like if i'm like in that moment or whatever it's like automatically like oh if you don't want me to do this anymore like all i'm thinking is like you don't want to get off like that's not your goal for this and it sounds like for him like or he doesn't really think that like the orgasm is like the goal for you at the very end even though it might be his but then it's like oh she doesn't seem like that's her goal through all of this like does he know by like that that's something that you would like because it sounds like something he's he's expressed it that's something that he would like but have you expressed like i would like to like finish most of the time when we're having sex I mean like I've never like said I want to finish
Starting point is 00:15:33 when we are having sex like blatant but like I feel like he does know because he tries so like he shows it but I think like it's like at that point it's me that's just like giving up at that point where I'm like yeah well that's I don't doubt your boyfriend's a great guy but like yeah it's exotic if it's like not if it it just kind of feels like we're gonna wait like spend a lot of time doing something that I'm not 100% sure is gonna fucking happen and like I got shit to do but that's my question is then the defensiveness of like a toy that really should be like an automatic like a very easy not solution but like thing to add into a relationship where he wants you to get off so like what has he explained specifically like what his issue
Starting point is 00:16:20 with the vibrators because like I get he's like oh I don't last that long but like what is like what's it if it has nothing to he's not getting you off why is he upset that something else because he wants to be the one that does it but he's not like i know that's the thing is like he wants to and now he feels less than because he's not the one that's doing it right yeah there's that and also like i think when i did ask him to like go online and pick one out i was just scrolling like guy was like oh there's this then there's this then there's this then there's a very intimidating yeah and yeah I think he was intimidated by that and the fact that he's never used one before so it's like that'd be like his first time with it he's only had one partner before me and I know
Starting point is 00:17:07 they really didn't do much so it's like a lot of things that we've done are first so like I know that he can get a little overwhelmed I could I could kind of understand why he wouldn't want to pick it out because it's for your pleasure so he could pick something that you know is not going to be something that you enjoy and then there's that for him that frustration on top of that it's like now i pick something that she doesn't like as well i guess that's yeah that's true i'm am i did he did you already say that you guys tried it together that one time oh yeah when it got delivered to his house that night we used it was great why didn't you bring it back yeah now i'm nervous about what i would just have a conversation with him like i would like really lay it out on the
Starting point is 00:17:49 table and be like hey i really care about you um and i like love having sex with you but i would like really i would like to i'd like love when you're i love that you get off but like i would like to get off more and that is like a priority to me and i think it's a combination of um like us figuring out together like when you're going down on me like what works best like for me and like you can even say like i think it's actually a great position to be in when you're like i haven't necessarily really like had like a great like enjoyed it a ton and like i do want to explore it more and like see if this is something that i really like but i'd also like to like bring this like toy background so like we can like do this and that kind of stuff because that if i think if
Starting point is 00:18:30 you make it clear to him that like an orgasm is like a priority to you i think also like a lot of guys in this situation can sometimes have like uh i don't like selective memory where it's like oh she's she's coming more than than she she yeah she's definitely coming like a lot and like we like to do that where it's like no it's not bad like i really like you but it's like it can always like improve in that sense and i think like him obviously like the time that you used it i'm sure like the reaction that like came out of you he was like oh this is great like this like that should be a turn on for him to like want to use it more but i could feel like i mean yeah i would think that he wouldn't like object to it to get like to that because I mean I would also recommend
Starting point is 00:19:13 the she comes first book but I haven't gotten it yet but I do want to read it like you should and I would also recommend maybe get a toy that you just leave at his place yeah I was thinking about that because it's also the fact that I'm like bringing it to his place so I don't want there to be like that like I want to use it like I don't like you know like I feel like I would get you're packing a sleepover bed literally though so it's like if if say we live together and it was around i feel like we would have used him more but we don't so i think that like just having something to leave at his place would be a good idea yeah uh well um i wish you good wet sex in the future i wish you many orgasms and um yeah i'm excited for you for you in this uh in this
Starting point is 00:20:00 journey and he's his confidence is gonna go he's like ego is gonna go through the roof when he's like oh look at me make my girl come all the fucking time yeah it's gonna be great yeah thank you guys thank you so much for giving us an update and you know dealing with my very invasive personal questions i'm here i'll talk about anything i don't care i mean likewise so thank you so much thank you guys have a good one bye and we're back whoa hi megan and melissa i'm 22 years old, recently graduated from college and working full-time. I'm calling because I've been talking to this guy for like six weeks and now some red flags have come up. He's 23 and we work at the same place, which is where we met. He had noticed me way before we ever really started
Starting point is 00:20:46 talking and asked my coworker about me and then asked for my number. Ever since that, we've been texting every hour of every day, talking on the phone, taking our breaks at work together, and it seemed like it was going great, like I was really falling for this guy. We also couldn't see each other outside of work or be physical at all until like last week because we were waiting until we were both vaccinated. The thing is that he's an extremely emotional guy which I thought was a good thing that he could actually express his emotions but he was talking about the future like two weeks in and I just felt like I could never get on his level because he was already so far ahead of me with everything. I had expressed him multiple times that I was getting overwhelmed when he
Starting point is 00:21:24 would get so emotional and each time he felt so bad and said he would tone it down but then he'd back on his bullshit like two weeks later we hung out for the first time last week and it was nice but during the day he asked me to be his girlfriend i said yes in the moment because i felt so awkward saying no but it freaked me out we've only hung out once in person do you even really know me the next day i told him again that i was overwhelmed and that it was too much too soon for me to jump into relationships so we agreed to take it slow and be casual i actually um i kind of thought it was just me being afraid of commitment or whatever but yeah but then the other morning I wake up to multiple long paragraphs of text sent at 3 a.m
Starting point is 00:22:02 about how much he likes me how he sees the future with me how I make him a better person how I'm the best thing to ever happen to him so that freaked me out and also made me mad because I've already told him to chill so I told him that I need a few days without us talking so I could figure things out but this is when it gets really weird it's been like a day and he's posted like seven snapchat stories all about me. Things like, I hope the last hug wasn't the last hug, and please don't run from me, and I would do anything for one more phone call, one more wholesome moment shared, one more laugh, one more day together. And he knows that I can see these stories, so it just seems really weird and kind of desperate. I just don't understand. Anyways, I think I'm going to
Starting point is 00:22:41 cut things off because if I wanted to be with him, I don't think I would feel relieved that we're not talking right now. Like, I miss talking to him, and it's really weird seeing him at work, but the overall my feeling is relief i wanted to know what y'all think of the situation if you think i'm just freaking out over nothing or whether this is weird and i should stop talking to them and probably quit my job too okay thanks guys i love the podcast um okay y'all have a nice day bye no this is not anything that uh is not weird like this is definitely weird and uh you had so many gut checks during this like you had red flags and bad feelings very early on um and i say go with your gut uh megan i'll let you take it away and then i'll
Starting point is 00:23:30 circle back okay um yeah this is the definition of uh love bombing and nobody can like we sometimes people can get defensive where it's like i knew they were my person like they my person they came on so strong and i knew they were my person two weeks in i'm like yeah because you didn't feel like this yeah that's like when it's like that you both feel it like that's what you both want and i don't even it's not weird you don't even really notice that it's that weird because like you're both completely in it this is like this gives me such an ick and like this is oh i hate how common this is too because it really does also play on the fact that like sometimes it can feel like there are fuckboys and then there are these guys and like these guys are
Starting point is 00:24:09 like it's oh my god he's on a fuckboy it's like all this greatness and it's like oh no no this is equally as manipulative and toxic. It just like, isn't a different outfit. Like it just like looks a little different. I'm really glad you mentioned quitting your job because I would, I would a hundred percent do that. And I would break up with him and I would break up with him to be fair. I would also probably break up. You don't owe him in person. I would break up with him over the phone. Um, while a friend is there or break up with him in, but I would break up, quit your job break up so there's no overlap of that so like the first thing i would do is like give your two weeks notice to quit your job and then let your boss know or if you don't even if
Starting point is 00:24:51 you don't have to get two weeks two weeks notice is more just a courtesy and it sounds like this is a job that you don't that you can easily get out of so i would just quit it maybe mine if you like need need the money line up something else first and then quit yeah and if there's any if you need to line up something first and like there is like a overlap timeline wise talk to whoever makes your schedule and say like please don't have me work at the same time as him um and quit your job and then break up with him and anything that you need to do to like ensure your safety or anything like that this like it always can go one of two ways with these people that like they get like really like insane and like it can get really dangerous so making sure that you have like people
Starting point is 00:25:34 who like know and all of that kind of stuff and just like be on the lookout for that but then there's also it can just be that this is what they do with everybody and so then they like mope about it and then like move on but I had oh I had one of these things in college with this guy and it was like oh it's like that same thing where you're like I'm sorry he like showed up to where I was studying and we had met like two days before but he was like oh I've been like I've always thought you were cute like I've always been like looking out for you like I always like noticed you like you're finally single and like he was cute and then we like had talked on he like added me on Facebook we like talked about like maybe like meeting up at like a party we were both going to
Starting point is 00:26:13 be at like his frat party like that weekend and on the next day which was Valentine's Day he showed up to like the Starbucks I was studying at and like brought me a bouquet of roses and was like loudly declaring how much he was like into me and I was like well I hate this and then would just like show up at my dorm and would just be like hey like just like wanted to like hang out like blah blah all of that stuff and it was so weird but then like very quickly he pivoted to like another girl in my sorority and then like pivoted to another and pivoted and pivoted and pivoted just making sure you have like a plan and like let someone else know and if you any point you feel like uncomfortable or you don't feel like safe and like that's not a you don't need to feel
Starting point is 00:26:54 like there's like an actual like we're you don't have to feel like there's a tangible threat or like any sort of threatening language made it can literally just be a gut feeling or just feeling icky you don't have to be like well no i'm overreacting like you don't have to have any sort of tangible evidence that he is going to do something or like put you in danger or like make you feel like he gives you the ick just make sure that like yeah your friends know you're doing it uh i would do it i would literally do it either on the phone or text and then if you really want to do it in person i would do it in person have your friend drive you and like like literally stand outside of the car and the friend stays there in the car yeah but i don't know if the
Starting point is 00:27:35 in-person thing is because that's how he manipulated her into being his like saying that she was his girlfriend was because he asked her in person and she felt uncomfortable with that so i think it might be text message yeah and then yeah just making sure that even if it's on if it's text message or phone call or anything like that that you are with a friend so they can hold not just hold you accountable but also be aware of the situation and make sure that they're not he's not going to like manipulate you and they're there for your support as well and encouragement the fucking weirdo good luck and please update us and if you need us there for support put us on speakerphone yeah or whatever i've dealt with so many of these fucking dudes
Starting point is 00:28:19 like i don't want to be like oh my god like i've like had a couple that i've interacted with but like mostly as like people that like my friends have dated or like been into or whatever. And I'm like, you fucking weirdo. Actually, this is how this happens a lot. It does. Next call. Next call. Hey, my name is. I'm 23 years old. And I am hoping that you guys can help me, I think, honestly, just cement or solidify the decision that I already made. But my best friend and I we'll call her Lauren, have been best friends since we were in fifth grade. I moved away from Texas, my family's military, like sixth grade year, and we just stayed in contact ever since
Starting point is 00:29:03 then. I would go visit her, she would come visit me wherever I was living at the time, up until recently. So my bachelorette party was a very low-key situation in a cabin in Georgia, and she came with me and she didn't know any of the other girls there. Most of them I do work with. We were trying to keep our pod pretty small. But anyway, she came to that bachelorette
Starting point is 00:29:28 party and she was just awful the whole time we were there. She followed me around everywhere but like to the point of answering questions for me when people would ask me things. She kind of talked shit about my future
Starting point is 00:29:44 sister-in-laws and then she at one point was kind of rude to one of my future sister-in-laws she it was something stupid we were going to the bathroom literally and she tried to like kick her out of the bathroom like okay you don't have to stand here for this while we were talking but we weren't even talking about anything specific I don't know I just didn't really like the whole situation so I confronted her after the party was over and she was back in Texas and I told that I didn't appreciate kind of how she acted while we were there oh and my fiance paid for her trip there because she's like going through grad school and kind of foreign honestly just makes bad decisions monetarily and she talked about money like the whole time there would order
Starting point is 00:30:32 shit online like we slept in the same bed like in bed and tell me about it and then talk about how her fiance just got this huge raise and then she'd always like talk about her own wedding whenever we started bringing up mine and I don't know so I confronted her I didn't like her answer she said she was sorry and that it was shitty but that was really the extent of her apology and I'm just wondering I guess if I should revisit that because once I confronted her I haven't talked to her again since then and it's been like a month is it okay to just leave it I just feel guilty like not following up with her I guess after confronting her and her replying to my apology just because i don't know we've been friends for so long is it is it fine to just leave
Starting point is 00:31:16 it as is or should i contact her like for closure i i don't even know okay thanks bye are you gonna uninvite her from the wedding that was my thing is like do you want her and is she in the wedding it i feel like she is right i feel like i mean some people invite people to like that yeah it's like batch well no most of the time if you're invited to like a bachelor or bachelorette party you might not be in the wedding party but you were invited to the party and you're still gonna go to the yeah but i was just thinking because they've been friends for so long that she might be unless you're eloping i don't know do you have a bachelorette party if you're eloping no because you like don't really tell people okay what it seems like to me is that you guys
Starting point is 00:32:03 are friends because you have this like long friendship and you're probably at different stages in your life um and this is the first time you've like hung out with her around other people and because you've known her so long she's trying to put her stamp on you like this is my friend um i i know her better than anyone else and um it's me she doesn't yeah yeah this might be like this i think like you're right like this is the kind of friend that like uh is a friend that you can't really bring around other friends like she's a one-on-one friend and if that's not something that you want and like you don't feel a need for that kind of friendship then i think it's like if you want to end the friendship go for it like you don't owe her anything like that
Starting point is 00:32:55 um but I would also yeah I think that it's like she you guys have been like long distance friends for like so long or like yeah one-on-one friends that like seeing her around other people it sure it could be a learning curve and like it was like a oh I was really trying to like make sure I felt like she was like overcompensating for like feeling uncomfortable or like feeling insecure about your friendship with other people or she can just be someone that's like not great in groups at all or it could just be like you don't really like her that much anymore so I think if you're going to uninvite her to the wedding you have to tell her you're uninviting her to the wedding but I think if you don't have plans to uninvite her to the wedding
Starting point is 00:33:38 and she's just a guest I think you tell your like maid of honor or your bridesmaids hey someone needs to spend time hanging out with her so she's not like a stage five clinger to me on my own wedding day like kind of treat her like a drunk uncle like some like like i can't be with her all of the time so like someone needs to like take one for the fucking team and hang out with her and like redirect that kind of energy but if she's in the bridal party i would have i would have another conversation with her before and i also i don't know if you're new here because you used your name and you said something about closure but um we don't really believe in closure around here um it's more like you didn't get the answer that you were satisfied with when you
Starting point is 00:34:26 confronted her and now you're you're you want her to give you an answer that is satisfactory to you yeah you want to read you want a redo of the conversation and you want her to say something specific you want her to say i'm sorry for monopolizing your time i shouldn't have been speaking up for you and you know what i'm gonna pay you back this money because i clearly have the money um but uh let me pay it back to you i'm sorry yeah i don't think you're gonna get that no so full transparency i'm a level with you if this was my bachelorette party and this was and she was a bridesmaid in my wedding i would fully either uninvite her from i would just either uninvite her from the wedding as a whole kick her out of the bachelorette party you're not invited we're
Starting point is 00:35:17 not friends anymore like I'm done and I would let her know that or I would just have a conversation and be like hey I don't think the bachelorette party like I think that was like uh a really stressful time and like there's a lot of like tension and kind of drama that like I had no desire to have and like it caused uh uncomfortableness between like me and my like future like sister-in-law and like that is not really cool with me and I gotta love with you I like did not enjoy doing that on my bachelorette like i'm really not gonna i'm not gonna do that my wedding and like i love you but like i just don't think that i don't want to deal with that again and i also don't want to take the chance even if you think that it won't happen again i'm not
Starting point is 00:35:53 going to take the chance so like you're more than welcome you're still invited to the wedding but like i'm i'm not gonna have you be bridesmaid yeah but i would actually probably just fully just not have her in it at all because it sounds like you also just like hate her and this is like you it seems like it's like a friendship that you held on to because you felt like you should hold on to and you know people grow if you would have stayed in the same state you guys probably wouldn't have remained friends yeah no totally you guys like it's more like you were like pen pals and you would go see her like for one-off things but she's not good in groups and a wedding is a group and a wedding is supposed to be about you and she was taking that you-ness out of and making it
Starting point is 00:36:43 about her yeah i think you shouldn't invite anyone to your wedding who is a liability unless you don't have a choice like that like you shouldn't wake up on your wedding day and be like god i hope they don't do something insane yeah but as a wedding guest i love when that person's invited into the wedding and then they do something but is the person who you're the spotlight's supposed to be on you oh yeah miserable horrible horrible but again as someone who's just watching sometimes it can be enjoyable especially if you don't like the people who are getting married we're gonna take a quick break and we will be right back and we are back
Starting point is 00:37:45 i felt that that this is the uh quantum realm we just traveled through the quantum realm to get here live for it so let's get into the rest of the calls hi megan and melissa i'm a 26 year old single woman. My pronouns are she, her, and I'm an Aries. I'm pretty close with one of my coworkers. I'll call him John. He's about 23 or 24. We're definitely work buddies. We get along really well and have lots of the same interests. We're friends on Snapchat, but we don't talk outside of work very often at all, maybe once or twice a month. I can say with full 100% confidence that I've never felt anything beyond platonic with him. Since day one, he's been fully transparent
Starting point is 00:38:25 about the fact that he has a girlfriend and they've been together about two years and they lived together. I didn't think that much about it until I went into work today and he just seemed off. He kept insisting that he was tired, but I wasn't buying it. I finally got it out of him that he got in a huge argument with his girlfriend where she essentially questioned his loyalty. He didn't tell me much beyond that, but he did say he nearly broke it off with her then because the fight was so bad. After he talked about it, he seemed to feel better and the shift continued like normal. After work, I checked my phone for the first time and I saw I had a Facebook message from his girlfriend, where she said, Hi, I know you work with John and you chat quite a bit. What's
Starting point is 00:38:58 the nature of your relationship? I was honestly just shocked at the whole thing, and I made the decision not to answer. I felt like no matter what I said, it won't go over well, so I thought it would be better off that way. Now my question is, do I tell him that happened? I definitely consider him a work friend, even a best work friend, but that's about it. I keep thinking about it, that if I were in his shoes, I would want to know if my boyfriend had done something like that to one of my close guy friends. I also thought about it like if it were one of my best friends in his shoes, that I would tell them too. Is that the wrong decision, do you think?
Starting point is 00:39:26 Now I have another question and that this is something that's not necessarily unique to me. I have a lot of guy friends and this is not the first time I've heard of something like this happening because of me. I've never had this significant other
Starting point is 00:39:37 reach out to me like this girl has, but it's enough to where I'm concerned. One of my other coworkers recently blocked me on Facebook because his wife was concerned about me, but he was very open with me about it and honest. I have other stories like this too, but my call is already getting way too long.
Starting point is 00:39:50 Is the problem me? I've never considered myself a naturally flirty person or anything and i've never considered making moves on someone that i knew was in a relationship but this has gotten to a point where it's almost a pattern and it's kind of disheartening let me know what you guys think thank you you're either accidentally really flirty or you're really fucking hot yeah also you had a full minute left so you could have kept going that was concise though it was concise um i first of all nothing makes me feel older than people snapchat yeah snapchat did you ever snapchat i did there's a point but it was never
Starting point is 00:40:28 i don't feel like people were never like we're snapping replacing yeah it wasn't a replacement thing but to me snapchat feels the way that i i'm understanding it from everyone that's calling in is that it feels a little too intimate yep like I think that there should be a line with people that you work with and you're not really you're not friends with that you shouldn't be snapping with them yeah because the nature of the app is things delete and it can be super like innocent to you but there why wouldn't you just text why wouldn't you just text them you know because then it's like as a partner you're like why is your preferred choice of communication with this girl something that disappears after 24 hours like I you know I think that it's really like I commend
Starting point is 00:41:29 like I really applaud you for being like hey is this me like this is a pattern of something that has been happening and I mean this in the nicest way possible it is highly likely that it could be it could be you but in a way that the the thing i would do is then i would talk to some of your other i would talk to some of your female friends not i wouldn't talk to your male friends i would talk to your female friends and be like shoot me fucking straight like do you find that like i'm flirty or like is there anything that i do uh or anything specifically that comes across as really flirty um or like just something like that and and just have them be like super fucking honest with you because like it might be like just like that oh well i mean snapping like that is
Starting point is 00:42:14 kind of something a little more intimate that you might not see as that at all or it can be like even when you're saying like i like he was like not in a good mood but i really i finally got it out of him and he told me like is it just like a sense of like a sense of intimate like emotional intimacy that's like a little farther than most people would feel comfortable doing with like co-workers or friends uh and like those boundaries like are there less of those there because that can be completely platonic to you but not to him and so then for you it might be like oh well i would text him like i would have no issues with that but like they're more comfortable snapchatting like it's like how it is on your end of things is not how the relationship either
Starting point is 00:42:58 is not how the guys are seeing their relationship or not how they're like retelling their relationship to these other to like the other women that they're around and dating also to me it's i don't know because you didn't specify but you said that you have a lot of guy friends are you usually like the only girl that's around too because that could also be some type of indication of how these other girls are feeling and the thing is i don't think any of this is your fault at all no not at all None of this is your fault. I'm not putting it on you. I'm just saying how it looks from the outside.
Starting point is 00:43:36 Also, oh, you did ask us too, if you should tell him. I think 100% you should tell. She shouldn't be contacting you over a suspicion of something that didn't happen. Here's what I would do. Here's what, yeah, where do we differ on this? But what I would do, because, and I'm only saying this because you're wondering
Starting point is 00:43:55 if this is you, you actually kind of have like a really wonderful opportunity at this moment to like speak from someone like this and you're like hey aren't we're like purely just friendly like why did something like can I like and I think if you come at it from there that to me is the biggest like shows the guy shows the girl but then also for you it's like the biggest sense of like yeah there's nothing here to like there's nothing here to hide there's like none of that kind of stuff like it's we're purely just friends like straight up just platonic um but being able to have that conversation with her there to me i know that he is your friend and she is not your
Starting point is 00:44:34 friend there is a little bit of intimacy of like if i were the other girl on this like other side if you didn't respond to me and then i hear my like boy like x or whatever is like i heard you message so and so and it's like oh so you guys really are that close like that's kind of like what i think it can be i think you can do both though like you can tell no i would talk to her and tell him yeah I would just be like no it's purely just platonic like we're friends like can I ask like what like what's up like what like why and like that is like I think that could be pretty helpful and I would also ask yourself if you are friends with a lot of guys who are in like are you friends with their girlfriends are you making an effort because if you're not like
Starting point is 00:45:18 like you said if you were like the one girl in the group or like one of few and then they date these other girls like are you making an effort to be friends with them and to like get to know them or is it kind of like oh yeah he's my friend like this is his girlfriend because that can kind of no matter what have a presence of like your temporary I'm gonna stick around like I don't really feel a need to like get to know you because like you're just a plus one essentially of this person and I have found like I mean it doesn't like always absolve that kind of stuff from happening like some people just are skeptical of like male female friendships but like when my like straight guy friends date a like date a girl like I make an effort to get to know her I always
Starting point is 00:46:03 I also make an effort to like not pull back on like how we talk to each other but like just to make sure like anything that I I am like over analyzing my actions to make sure nothing can be construed in a certain way because I'm like I know it's not like that but you don't necessarily know that. So I don't want to put that thought in your head. Yeah, because you don't know the same way. Yeah, I'm the same way. Like I will I'll stop texting my guy friend like 100%. And if we're texting, it's in a group chat. Mm hmm. I will I will like respond to Instagram stories while they're with their partner and be like, Oh my gosh, you guys look so cute, like really make an effort to be like, Hi, I have like, I'm non threatening, like I'm not coming for you at all.
Starting point is 00:46:43 And like, I think that sometimes people can be like, Come on, like women, we need to support like this is one of those things like this is the the the competition between women is such a long-standing like side effect and like result of the patriarchy and all of that like we can't just like ignore it and expect that to like fix this like i think there's a lot of like overt steps that we need to make and be like really deliberate and clear about those kinds of things because that like open line of communication is that's what's going to like make and like you can make another friend there too like and again it's like it can be super super super subconscious but i would think that if this is like a repeated pattern you you there is something that you could
Starting point is 00:47:28 probably do to avoid this oh and like what that thing might also be that like you're befriending some just like kind of shitty guys and like that they're pretty shady and like that the way they're talking about you they're not seeing your friendship the same way and the way that because like i don't want to put it on the other women either do you what i mean like i don't want to say like oh they're being crazy and they're reading too much into it like i think probably who's most likely at fault in this situation is these the men is how they're talking about you or just how how they're keeping a relationship on snapchat how like all of that kind of stuff like i think that like to fix this you need to talk to her and like make your focus like not
Starting point is 00:48:08 your friends and it's not about loyalty to your friends it's about like okay my loyalty to my friend is to my friend like our friendship and like in doing that i'm gonna have this conversation with this girl and i'm gonna let you know like she messaged me messaged her back told her we're just friends i wonder if when they had the big argument if she brought up the caller in that argument and that's why the guy was not forthcoming about what actually happened i wonder if he brought her up yep i wonder if he said something like she was reacting to something or maybe she saw or she saw him snapping with her too yeah maybe it was maybe it was that or like and this has happened i've been in this situation as the person who was brought up but i was like bad
Starting point is 00:48:54 fucking move dude like that's not how this works like don't fucking say that but it was like oh my god like megan wouldn't have done that and i'm like never fucking side by side comparison never fucking because we're not the same you you have sex with one of these people don't have sex you can't have that kind of comparison so if it's like reacting to something or like or even if it's just the way that he's like uh let's say your name's like we'll give you a pseudonym because you actually said your name we'll call you hannah so if he was just like oh my like hannah said something really funny or like hannah did this or hannah did this and like like he just like kind of talks about you in that way that naturally if they're getting into a fight that's gonna come
Starting point is 00:49:35 up or maybe he like was snapchatting and like hit it or did something like that like i don't think it's random that this is that you are you were a part of that fight i don't she either brought you up or he brought you up but your name was a part of that fight and the fact that he didn't say that to you makes me think that he brought it up because just it's just so it's not by coincidence that they had a fight the same day and then she's the one that's messaging you yeah and the fact that he told you that is a massive red flag to me if you fight with your partner and like your like work friend or whatever is like asking about and like you're gonna be super forthcoming about like your relationship issues with a different like with another woman like
Starting point is 00:50:24 you were a part of that you've been a part you've been a sore subject for that relationship because he wouldn't be opening up to you otherwise yeah your friend picker might be off but i would have a conversation with this girl i think it can be really fucking productive too because she's also not accusing you of like anything i think she doesn't trust him and like i think based on your interaction with him and like all of that like i think it's pretty safe to say that like who knows if you can necessarily trust him either like you don't know what he's been saying about you but you know who's gonna fucking tell you she is she's gonna tell you the fucking truth she has no reason to lie to you about this shit please give us an update and uh should we go on to the next let's do
Starting point is 00:51:05 it hello megan melissa and listeners uh i am 23 years old i go by they them pronouns and so i have a not dilemma but um so it's my partner who also go by uh they them pronouns so here's the thing They are amazing.

Which, by the way, thank you for the blowjob trick. I can't speak to that shit. But, in the words of Beyonce, it's too big, it's too strong, it's too wide. And in the words of Megan Thee Stallion, cat and hook, like literally.
Starting point is 00:52:34 And like, I don't know how Megan Thee Stallion just loves a dick with a little bit of curve. I don't because it just like kind of feels weird in my stomach. And I am so sorry. I know Megan doesn't like butt stuff. It's so weird to say that. And I don't know, like, maybe you guys can give me some tips on how to enjoy a dick with a curve. Because all the dicks that I've had, oh my god, I sound like a whore, but all the dicks that I've had aren't curved or anything. And this is the first time I've had a curved dick inside me, and that was also way too big.
Starting point is 00:53:21 but yeah so how do i enjoy myself and to all the gays out there no i will not do poppers i do not do that okay well hope you guys can help thank you so much bye can you imagine if that was my advice like i was like poppers just do poppers if kyle was on here that would fully be kyle's kyle explaining poppers to mods i wish i had a video of that conversation once i was like huh um can i finish the beyonce lyric please do so i've got a remix um go ahead if you can get it out you got this you got this am i gonna pee okay just do it just do it i'm gonna clench i'm doing kegel so the the action the lyric that you uh shared with us it's
Starting point is 00:54:23 it's too big it's too wide it's too strong it won't fit and then i finish the lyrics with i walk like this because he keeps getting stuck he's got a big ego such a big ego so it reminds me of side to side the whole ariana grande i was like this is we're glad oh the pain the pain the walk after the walk you can't sit oh you can't you can't at all i remember what yeah not gonna get into that um okay curved dick where's the the prostate's not up there right that's the thing is that versus the g spot yeah yeah that's the thing is like for us as vaginas vagina holders we depending on the angle that it goes in missionary if you're going in with
Starting point is 00:55:27 well actually it depends on which way it curves because it can curve different ways exactly so it might be the position that's what i was gonna say so i have uh again suspected endometriosis and one of the side effects is you can just get like pain during sex and i there are just certain positions sometimes that just like do not fucking work for me because i'm like this is just this is just not physically like a a good one for me um so i would say i would just like switch around and figure out those positions and so uh again with vagina i mean it also really depends on like the width because if the width is the issue and that's like the immediate kind of issue right there i would just it would be relaxation and lube and maybe stretching yeah that's what i would be
Starting point is 00:56:18 like a lot of like fingers and that stuff and toys yeah and like building up to that and so then like actual penetrative sex is like you gotta get yeah it's like you're warmed up um but if it's like length then i would say picking positions where um you are in more control and so it just where you can really determine like the depth of how far it's going in and like that comfortability for you um and just trying out certain angles that like maybe aren't working because like yeah if it's like hurting your stomach that's like a similar i can get that similar kind of feeling yeah i would get well i don't know what position it's hurting when you're in the stomach because that
Starting point is 00:57:09 yeah i don't know if like because it might be like you're on your back and they're coming in if their penis is curved up then i could see that hurting your stomach um yeah i think you just need to try out different positions yeah and and go with the curve follow the curve yeah yeah i mean that's essentially it is that you have to follow the curve yeah but i think like a good rule of thumb is that picking starting off after you've done all of like the foreplane everything and like really like you know hands and toys and all of that kind of stuff and primed yourself you're all ready or whatever is uh the positions that again like you're in more control and there's less this sounds weird i'm just gonna be explicit there's less of like a straight
Starting point is 00:58:04 fucking shot because that's what it's like when you get that deep that can be painful so like for me sometimes if i'm like fully bent over like and it's like there you you have like the polar express straight shot like there is like no that like that can be like a little bit like oh that can be a little bit more painful um so i would try things that involve like i don't know like you're you're moving a little bit more versus like like think of like fucking versus like getting you need those positions because like you're getting real like you and also it might be where you're taking too much as well like you don't have to have it all the way in that's what yeah exactly and so like that's like if they're in if all of the force is coming from your partner
Starting point is 00:59:00 then then when they're like if they're giving you all of that like you it needs to be like more of a 50 50 kind of thing where it's like you're it's like you know you're pushing as much as they're pulling not like that's how sex works but in that kind of way that it's more of a dance versus like yeah you're getting like fucking railed because that's that's when that's when it's gonna that's just a little too intense and then i would also say like i don't know how long that uh that like if you've had conversations with them about this about like i know i've had sex with someone who is like smart water like massive massive and the guy that i had sex with like he had like a ton of like he's had sex before so like he like was like okay so this has had been something that's been
Starting point is 00:59:49 worked for like another person that i've been with so i don't know if your partner if they've ever if if they have if you can ask them for like you don't have to like put on that like brave face like you can just be like yo like you're great like your dick is huge like do you has something worked with you with like the other partners that you've slept with in your past and maybe they'll say like yeah or maybe they'll say no but then you'll have that conversation with them which a is a very flattering conversation but also uh can make them like they should be aware of the fact that you are also experiencing like it can be a little uncomfortable and or just like difficult or hard for lack of a better term um and they can you know help you out with
Starting point is 01:00:31 that yeah i just i'm dying both of us saying getting railed at the same time uh yeah good luck i i i'm wishing you good right now for a limited time everyone's part of the Buick team, even you. Buick's Employee Pricing for You event is on now. Get a purchase credit of up to $3,168 on a 2026 Buick Envision.

Starting point is 01:01:08 Don't miss Buick's Employee Pricing for You event. Visit Buick.ca for more details. I'm wishing you good wet sex. All right. time for don't blame them this is if you're new here don't blame them this is where a listener will call in and they will give their own advice based on a call that we have in a previous episode so maybe they listened they were like oh i relate hey you know future maybe it's somebody who's fucking a curved dick in the ass and they've got some some expert tips so what episode is it from
Starting point is 01:01:40 uh they're gonna share all about it in the call so i can just play it okay hi i'm calling as a Don't blame them for the most recent episodes, so Season 7, Episode 22, for the girl who was asking advice on how to ask the guy she's seeing what his political affiliation is. And I do have some experience with this because I'm very, very, very left-leaning, and I live in South Florida, so I live around a lot of Republicans. And so it's pretty difficult to find anyone to date down here. And so my two biggest pieces of advice is, one, I don't think it's bad to be straightforward asking this question because if a person agrees with you, then this will be something that
Starting point is 01:02:26 they'll want to keep talking about and it will give you more conversation topics. And if they don't agree with your beliefs, then you automatically know to just ghost them. So I feel like it's kind of a win-win situation because they either agree with you and now you have more talking points or they disagree with you and now you know to dump them um and then the only other advice i have is that even if a guy is um not necessarily conservative but says that he's more moderate or like on the left but he has a lot of i mean if he's moderate then that's an automatic no anyway but if he says he's on the left and he has a lot of conservative
Starting point is 01:03:06 friends and this is usually an issue too because i've noticed that some of the guys that i've met down here they um they say that they have sort of left-leaning beliefs and stuff but they are friends with a lot of conservatives who influence them um like an example of this would be how they treat women i mean usually on the left they're more respectful like more i mean i'm sorry respectful. And so I know that seeing how the conservative friends influence these guys that I was talking to, I didn't like very much either, even though they didn't have the conservative belief. So my best advice is just find someone who's just as passionate about politics as you are, because that would be a lot better in the long run, because you guys will be on the same
Starting point is 01:03:55 page. And for someone like me and you, who this is really important to, I think that would be best case scenario so um i do agree with megan and melissa to just go with them from now on don't even bother but that's my advice thank you bye love to hear it and yeah no she's right that that's like who the person spends their time with and their friends and all of that it's you are either uh like it's like it's like they don't know being homophobic or something like you're either homophobic or you're okay like you're passively homophobic because like you're enabling and like okay with other people being like that especially friends don't get to you fucking choose your friends right i mean i i wholeheartedly agree with everything that the caller said
Starting point is 01:04:39 good call very smart and also it is not your responsibility as anyone who is like well i'm going to change their mind that's not your responsibility it's not you're not going to do that emotional labor at all and nobody is going to you're not going to be able to change anyone's mind who doesn't want who's like steadfast in their beliefs there's a massive difference and I think a lot of people especially in relationships and even with friendships have a hard time deciphering like when when is it my responsibility like as a good human to like guide this person in the right direction and when is it just like completely like my efforts are wasted and I have to decide that with like dms all the time and the dms of people who like want to learn are like hey
Starting point is 01:05:21 I was raised really conservative. And I don't necessarily believe everything that that has come out from like in recent years. And I've been seeing a lot of the things that you have like been posting. And I would love to have a conversation about this. Like, this is something that it's really intriguing to me. And like, I would like to learn more. And I'm open to changing my views. And then there are other people who are like, No, that's not it. And if it's just automatically argumentative, but if you find out someone's political beliefs, or you find out something about them and the question that i always point like ask is are you open to are you open to changing your opinion and if they say no i'm not open changing my opinion it's like okay
Starting point is 01:05:57 cool this conversation i don't need to talk to you anymore also if you're you come in with things that contradict themselves already in your argument that already says that you're uneducated about the topic you need to be doing some googling first i need to see some like self-motivation before you're just going to turn to me and ask for some emotional labor like no no no you have to show me that you actually care and like you do want to learn about this because it's also not it's also not hard and like the amount of people who like go who like grow up really conservative and go to college and like you know the trope like you get educated you become liberal and that is something that like that involves like a lot of like being proactive and just like learning about all that
Starting point is 01:06:40 kind of stuff but if you wanted everything to be handheld to you to me that just said your political beliefs were handed to you by your parents and now that is what you expect but yeah so you all know so that's it for our episode uh well if you enjoyed this episode um please go give us a review on the apple podcast app and if you want to call in for an upcoming episode you can leave us a voicemail at 310-310-6940-976 and international listeners you can send us an audio message at meganpodcast at gmail.com like we said at the beginning keep it under three minutes practice write it down make sure you have all the details let us know your pronouns and you have to be 18 or over have your parents permission uh follow us on socials we did change our instagram

Starting point is 01:08:13 like i have tuned out about all this fucking math but it's a good time i kept trying to wrap it up but it kept going just because uh you know i i had to deal with all that in school all the time because of my major so i and then i started just like saying numbers you know doing the math yeah I don't deserve being like, I don't know any of these numbers. Anything that you, what do you want to promote of your whole massive list? Yeah, just follow my Instagram for my business or my person, both my personal and my business. And you can mute both. I just would like to be able to do a swipe up link.
Starting point is 01:08:56 Someone did message me and they're like, it would be faster if you just got verified. And I was like, I'm not anyone to be verified. Well, hey, that's that's so funny. So I was just about to tell you, while I was on the I was on some I don't remember, I think I was on the Don't Blame Me account or something. But I have like new Instagram update. And I was looking through for the Facebook group and like checking people's Instagrams because we require Instagrams to make sure we can verify who you are. And I was checking one of those. And now Instagram has it sorted of like following and then it says like public figures and like something else or whatever. and i went over to that tab bitch you were you were in that tab in the public figure one yeah and not everybody's verified in there but that would be a case for you to verify because i think it's about your ratio of followers to following got it because it's like okay clearly more people fall like or you're just extremely popular you know what i mean like it is like so maybe i yeah maybe i need to make more of a web presence for myself and then i'll like like i need to get my
Starting point is 01:10:01 website going like my personal one and connect it to the business and then get that going and then submit for it i will i will tell you i think the quickest way that will happen is if we create an account of someone pretending to be you and then you have to say this verified this is me that's really what it is that's why i don't know if it's still that but back in the day of getting verified it was like if people are you need to make sure that no one's like that this is the verified account so no one's catfishing or impersonating and all that yeah well someone was pertaining to my mom a few weeks ago so you know she's more shut up wait was that in my instagram comment section was that not your mom no that was that was my mom but there was somebody else that
Starting point is 01:10:42 hacked her account and no they made an account that was similar to hers using her picture and they were messaging people saying what they messaged one of like my friends from college and i forgot what he said they were saying but he was just like it wasn't like i knew it wasn't her because it wasn't like aligned with anything that she it wasn't in the right cadence of how she speaks and so um yeah they had hacked her facebook and or they didn't have they made fake facebook and a fake instagram who did your mom piss off probably a lot of people i mean you know she does piss off i know she's an icon she's an icon wow that's wild was did the person have like an a name or something it was her name but they used instead no i mean the
Starting point is 01:11:33 person that that that the fake person messaged like no it was a c name c but they message a lot of people that's just like the closest to me who he sent me the message and he was like i don't think this is your mom but uh can you check this out oh my god so she could get verified before i do let's call up cammy and nave get her on catfish i would die to see your mom on oh that would be iconic yeah can you imagine your mom and cammy together i can't i can't it would be a mess it would literally be a mess they would talk so much shit in the facial expressions i can't i also just feel like your mom wouldn't even need like your mom wouldn't even need them there would be no quite there would be like she's like i'm facilitating the conversation i know exactly what
