Starting point is 00:04:09 the tune right just one more time ready in the shallow the shallow why are you doing it so slowly wait what the fuck
Starting point is 00:04:17 am I doing it more like this in the shallow the shallow is that not exactly what I just did am I sorry I'm also an excellent singer. I had a solo when I was in pre-prep.
Starting point is 00:04:29 Okay, right. We need to move on. I was Mary. What? Mary, Mother of Jesus. Mary, Mother of Jesus. I was Jack Frost in the Nativity play. They made me a character.
Starting point is 00:04:40 Had an epic outfit. And I had a solo. You know what that means when they make you a guy well yeah i was bigger than all the parts that existed jack frost you were a little snowman actually you have no no i was you know that okay right jack frost you were the boy the little ginger boy no no jack frost like they just made this like part so i had a solo just saying because it didn't go with within the nativity it was really outfit. So you know like that silver stuff that you get when you're younger?
Starting point is 00:05:06 It's like tinsel, but it's on like a strip and then there's like loads of like, it's almost like hair, but it's not. Yeah, I know exactly. Loads of tiny cups. Yes.
Starting point is 00:05:13 So it was all made out of that. My outfit was so glittery and cool. Everyone else had to wear like towels around their heads. Towels with their head with the fucking like tambourine over it. Well, they were just like the disciples and whatever, you know,
Starting point is 00:05:23 they weren't that exciting outfit wise. Frankincense golden mirror. That's the one. And did you ever go to school and like have this, the Victorian days where you had to dress up in Victorian clothes?
Starting point is 00:05:32 No, we did not. No, when, that just came off of your lip. I know, this mohair blanket is always dusting around me for the rest of the day when I leave here.
Starting point is 00:05:40 Anyway, when you had the evacuees and my mum would send me school with a gas mask. Oh my God, no, we didn't have that. We did have the shoebox day where you would take in a shoebox and fill it up.
Starting point is 00:05:48 And then you'd give it away to the homeless children. Yeah, and then it would be like shipped off, I think, to like Africa or something. That was a lovely day. We had so much fun doing that, thinking that like a child was going to really enjoy the previous toys and stuff. Yeah, we'd get letters back from them.
Starting point is 00:05:58 Did you not? Maybe we did, maybe we did. I think we all got letters back. We had to send like our photos and I got the most letters. Yeah, I think we did. And I was like, everyone was so jealous because I got the most letters. And I was like, everyone was so jealous
Starting point is 00:06:06 because I got loads of letters. Oh, also we have to just touch on Love Island very, very briefly. We've got a Love Island fan over here. The winner was Sammy and Jess. I love them both. She's such good vibes. Like what a lovely girl.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Right, just talk to me a bit about Sammy. So I watched it where they all did the- He was a naughty boy for a long time. I saw the naked twerking dancers. Is she the one who wore the angel wings? And she's really pretty. Angel wings? I didn't watch that episode.
Starting point is 00:06:32 Oh my God, you've not seen the dancing? That's the only one I tune in for every time. Oh fuck, I need to watch that episode. The dancing one where they do the... Tell me, tell me, tell me, whose heart rate did Zacharys, did it rise for Katie's? I think, no, I think it did.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Fuck, I don't remember. Does anyone remember? No one fucking watched it. We're all so unsupportive of Love Island in this room. I don't know what's going on with our producers today. It's just appalling behavior,
Starting point is 00:06:55 really. Appalling. What are you watching on TV if you're not watching Love Island? I'm watching Hijack. What's that? Buckle up, guys.

Starting point is 00:08:48 I'm a much better driver than Tobes. Well, Jamie doesn't drive but he still gives me hellish advice. He's such a batsy driver. Quite annoying.
Starting point is 00:08:54 I once, I've told this story before. I was once in the car with Sophie in Croatia. This is obviously going back like five years now. I was thinking, when have I ever driven this?
Starting point is 00:09:01 It was fucking terrifying. We were approaching a junction, junction right where you have to stop and check to your right to see if there's a car coming sophie didn't even look didn't even stop and went full speed and i went if there was a car coming we would have all been dead i'm not gonna lie like it was so dangerous life on the edge baby and i went you were like you were like what what and i was like you just went straight through a junction you like did i and i was like oh my god no we can't following your gal friends on insta and liking all their

Starting point is 00:10:06 Because you were in the car with me And you did it the other day And I was like What are you doing? No I don't like that That was a slip of the finger Thank god I did follow him though
Starting point is 00:10:13 That wasn't for the sake of being sportive I did follow him And that car journey And I don't know what I was thinking Because now he's like On my Instagram And it feels really odd Guys we're going to crack open
Starting point is 00:10:23 This gorgeous gorgeous wine It's a Pinot i'm really over okay whilst you're cracking open the wine i'm gonna start reading this dilemma so dilemma one before i dive in i'm going to give a bit of background we love a bit of background i've been with my husband for nine years and married for two we both have very busy life oh this is the next do you see we both have very busy lives with work and I'm very chilled if he wants to go away with his friends I'm all for it
Starting point is 00:10:46 it's important we have our own time etc totally however this year he went away and came back talking about how the group
Starting point is 00:10:53 met a mum and daughter and how cool they were what the fuck that's neat what I know I shouldn't have but I looked at a message on his phone
Starting point is 00:11:02 and from one of the guys that he was on holiday with at the early hours of the morning. This guy had sent a message to my husband saying, couldn't find you, we'll leave you to it, winky face. No, I'm really upset. My heart's racing. That fucking friend.
Starting point is 00:11:19 I can't stand boys that turn a blind eye to this. Oh, when you're in my eyes, they're just filled with tears. Can you imagine if I did that with you? Toby's holiday right now on a boy's holiday oh stop it can you imagine if you were just off gallivanting and i went couldn't find you left you to it like i'll be like melissa what the hell are you doing just encouraging but also like you know what there's a fine line between like encouraging someone but then also like they have to fucking make their own decisions i know but you don't say leave you to it winky face that's like that's like me slapping your arm and being like off you go right i'm just gonna have just a quick
Starting point is 00:11:47 sippy sip of this one gorgeous dear okay that's disgusting i didn't really know what to do with this and just ignored it thinking it's probably nothing and i need to get over it sorry she just ignores that i'd be like red flag sorry i need you to just repeat that last sentence she saw it she just ignores it. So she just pretends that she hasn't seen it. But then yesterday, I looked at his phone again
Starting point is 00:12:08 when he was sleeping upon an Instagram message from the girl from the holiday. Now I feel physically sick. They weren't terrible messages, but a little flirty. Him sending her selfies on my...
Starting point is 00:12:17 What the fuck? That's not a little flirty. That's like full on like relationship, like we're texting, texting level. He should not be DMing some girl he met on holiday. Are they okay?
Starting point is 00:12:27 This is a dumb full offence. To me, this is cheating. This is cheating. He's cheated for sure. You tell me. Emotional affair, if not. I don't know if I'm just being paranoid because after three years into our relationship,
Starting point is 00:12:36 he had a bit of a funny moment and said he wasn't sure what he wanted. We had a tough couple of weeks working through it, but we were very much still together. We moved past it and he said he couldn't imagine life without me. Later the line though after we got engaged he told me he'd actually slept with someone during this period as he thought we were breaking up i don't mean to smile my heart's just racing and there's a lot of emotion going on we moved on from
Starting point is 00:12:57 it and had a great few weeks few years but then sometimes i just feel like he is with me for convenience he says things like you're amazing the perfect wife and the person and the person to bring home to my parents I just feel like he doesn't make the effort so do I just come out with it do I message the girl and it's from the holiday or is this a bit psycho I worry she'll see message him and be like your wife is crazy please please I honestly can't talk to anyone about this as i never told my friends and family about the team before going is no i would keep an eye on it i'm so psycho no no no this is what i would do i if you don't message her i fucking would i think she will not i would be prepared i would i would actually already think it's happened same it has it has happened you've seen messages to me the messages alone to me i would be done dump bullet fence that is
Starting point is 00:13:46 cheating to me like messaging someone like photos no no no no then you've got the next bit of clarification from the friend being like i'll leave you to a wink face no no no what leave you to what they were obviously like out on the out of the bar together i would message her and be like hey i know you don't know me um i. I just need to know for my own sake I'm actually married to this chap. I don't want to say his name. I know you saw him on holiday. I don't know what happened
Starting point is 00:14:11 and I'm not angry with you at all. I just need to know for my own sanity. Please, could you help a girl out and let me know so that I know what I'm dealing with because he'll probably just deny it to me and I need some facts. Right, the truth of it is...
Starting point is 00:14:21 I think that's a fine way to ask. I think that's fine. If she's a good girl, she'll fucking tell you. She won't she will know he's married she would have seen his Instagram they talk on Instagram
Starting point is 00:14:28 she will think bingo I can now use this against you and be like your wife is crazy and he'll come that'll make their bond stronger what you need to do
Starting point is 00:14:37 is you either at that point then that answers your question yeah she knows though you know that he's cheated yeah I think you're looking for answers like even him doing this as an emotional effect
Starting point is 00:14:44 this is not okay I think that your problem is I don't cheated. Yeah, I think you're looking for answers. Even him doing this as an emotional effect, this is not okay. I think that your problem is, I don't hate to sound harsh, I think you're turning a blind eye. You're turning a big blind eye. And I think you're being a bit naive to even question if there is a cheating or not. Like, it has already happened.
Starting point is 00:14:58 For me, I would just be like, Jamie. It doesn't sound like he knows how great you are. He just has been, like, coasting with you and then, like, being a naughty boy on the side don't like that no no no so you're married
Starting point is 00:15:07 and he's gone on holiday and got some girl's Instagram and the message out like it's so dumpable it's frightening there is no going back from this
Starting point is 00:15:15 like this is done like I would just out him I'd be like what the fuck are you doing I found X Y and Z there's not really anything you can say
Starting point is 00:15:21 that's going to make me believe otherwise I would also maybe call his bluff and be like, look, I've spoken to the girl. I've actually spoken to your friends. I've had confirmation that cheating has happened. I don't know what details, but I know that you have cheated.
Starting point is 00:15:33 I've also then seen the messages myself. And I just, if he tries to do anything, I'd be like, there's no point in you trying to deny this because this is emotional cheating anyway. Yeah. Yeah. I'm really sorry to break this because I feel like you're maybe searching for an answer in us that we just can't give you because to us it's like quite you're so great and you're worth
Starting point is 00:15:52 way fucking more than this it sounds like he just didn't even know you're worth it before like having a wobble after three years and then engage getting engaged and then admitting to you that like you cheated before they engage you're like fuck that shit i'm sorry you've only been married for two years and i'm so sorry. Like everything happens for a reason. Yeah. You've had some lovely times with him and like this will be like the stepping stone onto your next life.
Starting point is 00:16:11 But for me, I think it's done. For me, I think it's done too. Like I don't want to put you into a frenzy and you can always come back and ask us about it. But like you are worth so much more than this. You do not want to be in a marriage where he's doing this. Like that's just not, it's not acceptable.
Starting point is 00:16:23 No, it's not a way to live. Okay, right. Dilemma two. Major problemo. I haven't spoken to anyone about it, but my head is officially fried at Please Help. Oh, no. I've been with my lovely boyfriend for just over two years.
Starting point is 00:16:38 He is gorgeous and the funniest guy I know. Oh, no. He works in the city, so he's a classic banker boy. Hours of never being free and always busy. I see him maybe once a week for a chilled one. And because of his schedule, if we are going out and it's always with friends and never really one-on-one dates. Because of how hard he works, I feel we really do things he wants to do. And I don't feel like a priority.
Starting point is 00:17:00 He's way out of my league. Shut up. No, I don't like this sentence. He's way out of my league. And although we don't have a lot in common and he isn't the most romantic or emotionally
Starting point is 00:17:08 open guy he is the yin to my yang and I often I often think about us spending the rest of our lives together however in 2019
Starting point is 00:17:16 I fell in love for the first time I genuinely thought I'd found the boy version of myself oh this is taking a turn in which I didn't really think it was going to be
Starting point is 00:17:23 yeah I like it after the summer, he left London as he studied and lived abroad. We stayed close throughout the years, often flying to see each other
Starting point is 00:17:31 and spending all this time together when he's back in London. Lovely. With my current boyfriend's permission, he couldn't care less. What?
Starting point is 00:17:41 Do we have an open relationship, no? I've seen the ex when he was in town visiting for a few months. We are close. And I know this ex has a special place in his heart for me. This is too rare. In my head, if the ex and I were in the same city again, we'd have given it another go.
Starting point is 00:17:59 To me, he feels like home. Oh, fuck. And has known me a lot longer than my current crowd but now he's actually moving back and i have no idea how to go about it all right listen for a start your boyfriend currently is not on your league that's just disgusting you're going back to the ads there's no two ways about it listen listen listen we need to be diplomatic about this she the other boyfriend doesn't give a fuck anyway yeah he's not he's not I don't think this is the one for you you've got a wandering eye
Starting point is 00:18:26 if your ex feels like home your ex is home but sometimes people no no no I also heard something on tiktok no no like instagram reels the other day it was a psychologist and he was like if you're able to be friends with your ex
Starting point is 00:18:43 either you're still in love with them or you never were. That's really interesting. Right, okay. Well, that... Anyway, so I think, yeah, as we said, going back to the ex, you obviously have, like, a spark with him and, like, your soul and your gut's telling you
Starting point is 00:18:59 to go back to the ex. Like, the fact that you've, like, really thought about this. Okay, go on. Even if the ex isn't home, something is telling you you don't want to be with the guy you're with now like you're going back to old familiar faces just because it's yeah it might not be the ex it just might be that it's not right with the current yeah and you're like he's the last thing i know we've got it you've got to get out sorry do you guys remember doing that yeah i can't believe i've never been able to my fingers are too bridged excellent advice for Sophie
Starting point is 00:19:25 be on the right hand saver he is not the one the ex might not be the one don't put all your eggs in that basket but just get out
Starting point is 00:19:33 of the current relationship with the boy banker yeah yeah okay right guys I'm really sorry we've just the girl who's
Starting point is 00:19:37 written in this dilemma we've just had a little store right firstly she's the prettiest person I've ever seen in my life so first of all
Starting point is 00:19:43 no one is punching that's the biggest fuck that shit no you seen in my life so first of all no one is punching that's the biggest fuck that shit no you're not punching with anyone else it's impossible no
Starting point is 00:19:50 the boyfriend is stunning but like go back to the ex also you're so young you're gorgeous and you're so young I'm shook like you were saying
Starting point is 00:19:57 oh be liver one young world free single life oh my god there we go we've sorted it out there you go dilemma solved get out with the banker
Starting point is 00:20:07 the bank is done dilemma three dilemma three right on it i'm seeing a guy who's a bit older than me 32 i'm 21 that is quite old actually we met on holiday and had a very short but sweet wild word romance he seems like the perfect guy his looks personality and even the company he keeps all is all around perfect oh my god stunning we don't live too far from each other so we continue things after the holiday we've been speaking every day and going on dates oh my god that's so nice the only thing is he talks about himself a lot he doesn't ask me questions about myself or my life and when i've tried to insert my stories into our conversation he will respond with just a photo of himself.
Starting point is 00:20:46 No. No. That's really upsetting. That's the lamest thing ever. He's so arrogant. Me and my friends even tested the theory where I told him something totally random and yes, you'd have guessed it. His response was a picture of him
Starting point is 00:20:59 followed by how his day went at work. No, but he's not well. Maybe he's a narcissist. Is that what narcissists do? They don't like listening to what other people have to say. Is that true? Or he's got really bad social skills.
Starting point is 00:21:11 Yeah, maybe. Guys, I need your help. I really like him, but do I stink? Discuss this issue or is this a total red flag and should I move on? I don't think it's a red flag.
Starting point is 00:21:19 For me, it's such a red flag. I would literally be like, you're the dullest fucking bloke around. I know, but there might be something deep down that makes him like that. Or maybe he does have, like, a bit of a social problem where he needs to, like, work on, like,
Starting point is 00:21:29 emotionally, like, reading situations. I don't know. Like, maybe just say to him, like, look, I feel like... I don't think there's any harm in you just being like, look, I kind of feel like you don't, like, like, when I say something, like, you don't really, like, acknowledge anything
Starting point is 00:21:39 or, like, respond, like... Yeah, I'm done with, like, the selfies of you. Like, can you have... Like, can I just understand, like, what that's about about because i'm sure when he's having conversations with his friends that's not the case if he keeps good company like he has good friends like he must do you know what i mean like be a good person so there must be something that we're missing do you know what i mean like i don't think there's any harm in having the conversation if you like really like him and he's like quite perfect ticks all your boxes
Starting point is 00:22:05 this is just the one thing there's no harm it's not like he's an arsehole it's just like quite weird it's just quite odd I have like taken twice out of that
Starting point is 00:22:14 also difficult to like have conversations with him like what do you then talk about if they're not I personally don't like texting like I really don't
Starting point is 00:22:19 like texting so for me I would just be like I'm not gonna reply and I'll just see you when I see you like if he's okay face to face but I don't know the whole thing's quite weird i don't think there's any harm in talking to him you've got to speak to him about it like melissa said because what the other option is you just dust and you don't speak to him you'll never know and it could
Starting point is 00:22:36 have been something he could be like look i'm maybe i'm really sorry i actually never realized like i find it really hard to then like comment on something like i find that really hard and it's something that i'm learning i don't know or he like has quite a hard like he doesn't have much time so like he doesn't his he wants to show you he's like there and listening to you but he doesn't have time to actually respond and talk listen to you and like communicate with you and then he bangs on about his own day at work that's what I'm not getting that's what's not adding up I think we have a conversation we see how that goes and we take it from there. Can you please follow up with us on this though?
