hey guys we're back hello hello, hello, hello, hello. It's Wednesday again.
A lot's happened.
Me and Prash have been away.
You've been away? Where have you been?
I went away skiing.
And Sophie went away to Estelle Manor.
She went away skiing, she went on a boys' holiday.
I went with my parents and then my brother and some of his friends were there, so that was quite fun.
Saw some very, very sweet little tinies when we were skiing.
And they sent their love.
They were really cute.
So pretty.
And Coco Ricos.
Yeah.
Living it up.
Coco Ricos.
And Coco Ricos.
That's so fun.
They were really sweet.
Well, I was just walking down the street and this girl ran after me.
And I did the weirdest thing.
I shook her hand.
That was weird of you. I know. It was really weird. She went, are you Sophie? And I went, yeah, the weirdest thing I shook her hand that was weird of you I
know it was really weird she went are you Sophie and I went yeah hi and I shook her hand but I just
don't she's been in a lot of meetings recently it's just a reflex I don't know what happened
and then the whim was also in my eyes so I was crying and I was like I'm not crying by the way
anyway the story is we told her to dump her boyfriend best thing she'd ever done
turns out he was I I think, cheating.
Anyway, then I went, Anna, you great?
You single now?
And she went, yeah, well, I was dating your friend Tom Lucy,
but he's now got girlfriend.
And I was like, this is such a...
That's wild.
But also...
She was being your boyfriend.
Yeah, she was amazing.
Gorgeous girl.
And then I hugged her because I was like,
I'm not a freak who shakes everyone's hand.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. We've got to go for the full hug. We're not in COVID anymore. I was just saying Gorgeous girl. And then I hugged her because I was like, I'm not a freak. Who shakes ever again? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We've got to go for the full hug.
We're not in COVID anymore.
I was just saying this to everyone.
When you go away with your parents or like you go like for a weekend with like your parents
or someone else's parents, you always think it's going to be like healthy and wholesome.
And actually you end up drinking and eating.
More.
More and more unhealthily than you do at home.
Why is that?
Because it's just a bit more, it's almost more civilized drinking,
but it's actually
more drinking.
And the food is just a lot.
Indulgent.
Very indulgent.
There's a lot of sugar,
a lot of butter,
and a lot of cheese.
A little butter.
You know Jamie calls
his brother butter.
They both go,
hey butter.
As in short of butter.
No, like butter.
Brother, butter.
You know,
sweet, sweet,
gentle Alexander
who you met. Can you imagine him going, hey butter? Not Brother. You know, like, sweet, sweet, gentle Alexander.
Can you imagine him going, hey, brother.
Not really.
I've never heard them say anything else.
Hey, brother.
No, it's more, brother.
Oh, brother.
Yeah.
Jamie, you can imagine.
Yeah, I feel like he says words like that all the time.
Jamie's also, he's calling his mum, mummy again.
And I don't know where it's come from.
But I, these ears of mine, pricked up. And I was like, abort. Does he call his dad, daddy? No, I don't know where it's come from. But I, these ears of mine, pricked up.
And I was like, abort.
Does he call his dad daddy?
No, I don't think he does.
I don't know what it is about it.
I know.
But you know what?
He used to call his mum mama, which was okay.
That's cute.
That's cute.
I think he might call his dad.
Some people get away with calling.
But in like a weird way so it's okay. It's not like, yeah, he does.
And it's sweet and it's fine. It's not like, yeah, he does and it's sweet
and it's fine.
Mummy, no.
I'm mum, dad.
I'm mum, dad,
which, you know what,
my dad's always been so sad.
He's tried to inflict daddy on me
since the day I was born.
I think when I was a kid
I used to say daddy.
He replies to everything
like daddy for ages
and we just,
we never caught on.
My mum was very much
didn't want to be called mummy.
Really?
I do think it's sweet for a girl though you can some people also some guys would get away with it
but I don't actually think I know any guys that do call their mum you know what I actually didn't
really notice it until I noticed it and then I was like oh I'm upset about this I'm upset but
before then it was acceptable it's so context I'm now just thinking back and I think I might yeah but you're only you're a girl I know it's pretty sexist but I don't I just know
my brother would do it too but only if like my dad does something like or my mom does something
quite sweet and you're like you feel a bit sorry oh mommy like what are you doing no I don't think
for a 35 year old heartbroken he's 35 I'm talking about Jamie doing I know I'm just picturing like
oh my god maybe I do say it in certain scenarios
yeah but I think
being a girl
and doing it's fine
like I've never
had an issue with that
and I know that's
really sexist
but I just
there's something
about a boy doing it
I know exactly
what you mean
like a grown man
doing it
although having said that
you know it's
very sweet
at the same time
it's all context
no hey
but sometimes
you know if your husband's
doing it you have the right
to be grossed out
yeah and you know what Penny and Jamie have doing it, you have the right to be grossed out.
Yeah.
And you know what?
Penny and Jamie have a very sweet relationship.
Like, she's a cool mum, so it makes it a little bit... She's not asking her to, like, clean his clothes, because that would be nailing the coffin.
Mummy, I've got a stain on my top.
Unacceptable.
You know what it looks like?
I can actually imagine him being like, oh, mummy, I've got some toothpaste on my black T-shirt.
Do you mind just putting that in the wash?
We're currently at the stage where we're thinking of, like, what my parents will be if they're grandmas.
Oh, my God.
What do you think?
My mum insists, like, sending a, like, a list.
They can call me this.
Mimi is what she wants to be called.
No connection.
No relevance.
I think Gilly's Gaga.
I like that.
Or Gigi.
Toby's mum.
I'm getting that wrong.
Maybe I'm getting that wrong.
But I know that the dad is Turtle.
Turtle.
Oh my God, that's so cute.
Jamie's mum's mop.
Because she wanted it to be moth, which is short for mother, which I just think is genius.
That is quite funny.
But they didn't say moth.
They said mop.
Yeah, because they pronounce things different.
Oh God.
That wouldn't have been good.
That would not have been good.
Right, so I'm down at Jamie's mum's house
and the stepdad, Jonathan, comes in.
He's like, morning.
And I thought he was going to.
Oh, for a kiss.
So I went, it was like.
Would you kiss?
No, no, he didn't.
But you know when it's just like he wasn't going for it.
And obviously I've been there for two days.
Like, what are you doing, Sophie?
Just did it.
Went in for it.
Oh, sweet.
But you know what?
Sometimes like Christmas morning when you're like, happy Christmas, you give everyone like a kiss and a cuddle. I know, but did it. Went in for it. Oh, sweet. But you know what? Sometimes like Christmas morning
when you're like,
happy Christmas,
you give everyone like a kiss
and a cuddle.
I know, but he wasn't going in for it.
It's just so awful.
The worst is when you do that
with like your dad's friend
or someone.
Yeah, someone you don't quite know
so that's always a bit of death.
Have you ever had that accidental thing
where you like kiss someone on the lips?
I'm sure I have,
but I can't remember who with.
Nor me.
Or if someone's told me a story
and now I'm remembering
it as it being myself
nor me
I'm sure I have though
I'm almost certain
I do remember
once walking in
on my friend
downstairs
in her house
when her dad
sat on the loo
and I'll never forget that
no that's
that's shuddering
that would
shuddering
that would stay with me
and let me tell you
what I did
just stared there
staring at him
and he obviously just stared staring staring at him and he obviously
just stared staring back at me
and then just
had to bend forward
and slam the door shut
like shut the door
oh my god so
I don't know what happened
I was in such
he also wasn't like
he was a bit of a scary dad
oh no
yeah
that would have really
humbled him though
he would have then
probably been weirdly nice to you
or was he horrible
don't think he ever
looked at me again
ever
that was awful
awful awful time.
It's like there's
certain things that
happen there's just
no recovery.
I'm like imagine
if you did that
like the first time
you went to Jamie's
house you walked
to John Jonathan
on the loo.
You couldn't ever
go back.
You couldn't date
Jamie again.
What things have
been no recovery?
Toby's brother
walked in on me
naked the first time
I stayed at their
house.
We weren't even
boyfriend girlfriend.
I was honestly
like in my mind
I was like we
can't come back
from this.
I could never
look at the brother again
we were supposed to
sort of make
Jake go out of it
what were you doing
standing or sat on the loo
standing washing my hands
with this thing
I thought you were
on the loo
no you weren't
I have a lovely view
for him
better than you
sat naked on the loo
which is what I had
envisioned for all these years I thought you were sat on the loo which is what I had envisioned for all these years
I thought you were sat on the loo like this no no and actually the bathroom's massive
so the loo would have been better because it's right around the corner
it's too good oh terrible also Toby's parents listened to the last episode that just went out
where I disclose how many people I've sat with I'm like why why why of all episodes have you
listened to that one did they say that oh melissa we've listened
explain they didn't say that that's part specifically but they did i know the podcast
that they listened to why they've never listened before and they decided i don't know why they
decided to listen to that one in particular which is perfect explain the whole situation so you're
sat east lunch and they were like by the way i can't remember how they said it we went out for
dinner and there was a girl there that was a waitress and she was a fan of the podcast and then they were talking about on the way back and then they were like yeah we listened
to one the other day the one that such and such and such and such happened in and i was like oh
my god that's the one where i literally say how many people i've slept with oh why why out of
every episode and we never talk about that shit we've never spoken about it not the one that we
don't even want your grandma to listen to i'd rather your grandma listen than that's why because
he kept saying you kept going grandma, grandma, shut your ears.
And I was like, oh.
I am.
That should have been Toby's parents,
shut your ears as well.
I am dead.
Hi to Toby's parents if you're listening again.
I'm going to be very careful about what I talk about in the future.
No, you can't be.
You know what I'm actually going to have to say to people
that know me like that.
You can't listen.
You just can't listen.
Otherwise, I can't speak freely.
I really hope that neither my dad or my mom listens.
I don't think they do.
Does your mom listen?
Your dad used to.
No, my mom definitely doesn't listen to this one.
I've never quite understood why.
I'm a little bit offended.
But she's a real fan of newlyweds, but never once has listened to this one.
God, I would think the other way around.
I know.
I'm not sure she knows this one happens.
She just thinks I'm floating around you all the time.
I don't know. She's never never referenced it i know my sister listens dad i hope doesn't listen although i once got in
my dad's car and popped it on and oh my voice was playing and it was this podcast i was like no no
i quickly just like changed it without most of them so most of us are very pg it's fine but it's
just like the odd one we go for some reason really personal i don't want to do that guys we've also got whatsapp now so you can write
in your dilemmas to our whatsapp we will be able to listen to them so you can do voice notes we
love a voice note also we could um also just like like kind of talk to you almost live which is
fabulous so we need an extra like bit of information we can just be like so how was it how are we
how long was this relationship yeah just makes things a lot more easy for us to
communicate and you know get down to the nitty-gritty of what those dilemmas are
because sometimes I just feel like it's it's an unfair answer and that's me know
exactly you've been dating for example exactly it's all circumstantial stuff
isn't it yeah it's really important i've got this horrible habit of speaking like isn't it like at the end of
everything i said i'm like isn't it i'm like oh you're so annoying i know when this has come from
toby because you started doing impressions you've done it for ages i've just not told you
i love it but you i don't get away with it like he does though I just Toby doesn't sound like that
your boyfriend
doesn't sound like that
oh my god no he does
I need to do some recordings
for you
do an impression on Toby's voice
he'll just be like
what should we have for lunch then
like
it's like
he does it on purpose
it's obviously not how he
naturally would speak
so in front of you
you would never hear it
you know when someone has
like a weird like way they talk
like behind closed doors
like a weird tick
no like with their other half like it's almost like a language that he has with me and
he just feels like and now i can't give me some more just talking toby well for a second oh really
that's nice isn't it no like that you go oh really that's because of him all the time to me and i i
then walk away and i'm like oh really i catch on to all of it and there's no reason for me to be doing it. Oh, God, so sorry.
Apologies, apologies.
Okay, right.
Should we get into dilemmas?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Hi, Sophie and Melissa.
For the last six months,
I've been traveling the world with three of my friends
and I've been having the most amazing time.
Along the way, I started seeing someone
who was also traveling.
He slotted into our group of three so well,
and me and him spent three weeks basically living with each other.
Our time together came to an end
when we decided to travel on to different places.
We left as a holiday romance,
but there was very much feelings involved.
I went off to spend six weeks solo traveling.
I ended up having a bizarre dream
that this boy started hooking up with my best friend, that they were still staying in the same place together. No. No. No. No. No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No. No. No. No. No. This girl was one of my best friends and I trusted her with my life. But I feel she's cheating on me. Every part of me wants to forgive her.
But I also feel so betrayed as she knew how much we liked each other.
Am I being a mug if I let her back into my life?
No, I think that you should.
No, you're not.
No, let her back in.
But that's not good.
Right, let's really go through this.
Okay.
So how long were they dating for?
Three weeks.
Just sleeping together.
Okay, fine.
But they were like living together and living with the best friend.
Yeah, but then you left and they're still living in that sexy that boy is the one we should hate not the girl i know i agree that she had more loyalty to you yeah and he's cuffling and
he's however it was only three weeks she obviously felt a certain type of way towards
him maybe when you guys were sleeping together i I don't know. Sometimes these things happen.
It's not right.
It's not right and boy, would I not be happy about it.
I'd be pissed off.
You can't block her out of your life forever.
Definitely have the right to be angry and have some words.
It's good she told you, though.
She could have lied.
Yeah, she could have just not said anything.
So if I was dating a guy for three weeks, it's really hard to...
Because for three weeks, if you're just dating, you're traveling. That three weeks if you're just dating you're travelling
that is something
and you're just having sex
and also you're
all day all night
for three weeks
living together
that's quite intense
it's not just like
dating you know
like a date
once twice a week
but then she did leave
so what did they leave it on
like bye nice to know you
yes they left it
as a holiday romance
holiday fling
it's like shitty
but would I
it's not a dumpable
offence of your friend
oh no if you did that
to me I'd be so angry
I'd be angry
anyone that would do that
to me I'd be really upset
no I wouldn't be that angry
if it was someone
I wasn't best best best
friends with
but if they were
best friends
I'd be like
sorry what
do you know what I mean
yeah
especially if I was like
okay so say I'm seeing
someone I'm like
oh my god so if I'm like
really having so many
feelings for this guy
like I'm falling for him
and then I leave and then you just start shagging him.
It's so bad.
It's quite bad for his bad form.
Girl code in an ideal world would be not to shag.
There's no fucking girl code there.
But sometimes lines must be crossed, you know, boundaries must be stretched.
Otherwise, you know.
Love does funny things to people.
And lust does too. at the end of the day
we're all humans and everyone makes mistakes and everyone makes decisions that might upset someone
else and she was probably in that moment like fuck it I'm traveling I'm gonna do what makes
me happy right now yeah like she was just like I want a bit of him as well yeah it's he
what can I say I think you definitely have the right to be angry and I so get that point of
view but I don't think you should lose the right to be angry and I so get that point of view but I don't think
you should lose
your friendship over it
because at the end of the day
it's just a boy
it's just a boy
and it's not anything more than
and you were not
you didn't want
you said goodbye
you said goodbye to
it was a summer fling
or a travelling fling
don't cut her out
because you think
it's the right thing to do
because I wouldn't cut you out
I'd probably be
no you just have
be pissed off
have words
and then you just have to get over it because I'm like are you going to lose a friend over that no yeah I don't think so I don't cut you out. I'd probably be... No, you just have to be pissed off, have words, and then you just have to get over it
because I'm like, are you going to lose a friend over that?
No.
I don't think so.
They also might become boyfriend and girlfriend.
Their love might be really strong
and then you just, you would, you know, that does happen.
It does happen.
It does happen.
It's a really shit situation.
It's a shitty situation.
I feel like sometimes we all go through these things in our lives.
There's a similar crossroads
that we're all going to go through at some point hun I thank god I've never had it
with like someone that I've dated or like an ex has like gone with my best friend that would just
be deathly hallows you're married so it's fine so if you can't take anyone from yeah you were
looking at me that is deathly hallows but I think in this scenario you weren't boyfriend girlfriend
it had been three weeks you were. Everything feels more intense than it probably is
because there's no one else around.
You're in a little bubble, right?
I agree.
And also, you have to think that this guy's not even from the same country as you.
He's thinking, I'm in Australia or wherever the hell you are.
I'm then going to go back to Australia.
That does happen traveling, I think.
It's very much like sleep, sex, snog.
Is it?
Sleep, sex, snog.
Right.
I don't know. I didn't get with anyone when I was traveling. God's sake. sex snog right I don't I didn't get with anyone when I
went traveling god's sake she had a boyfriend no I didn't we went on a break I was just a loser
oh no you were sweet angel loyal angel no no I wasn't a loyal babe
I wasn't I just um they're not as fit as you think they're gonna be they're not Australian
you know what it is when you have the option,
you're then like, actually?
I was like,
I was so psyched up.
I actually was like,
yeah, let's go on a break.
I was like, I'm down.
I got there and I was like,
they're terrifying and just no, no.
Oh, fuck, that's really annoying.
Yeah.
I sometimes watch these things
and I'm like,
there's this part of me
that has this yearn for an adventure.
When you get there. But then I'm like there's this part of me that has this yearn for an adventure when you get there but then but then I'm like oh my god sorry but then I'm like when I get there would I want to probably not no it's really scary I think that
was like one point where I was really close to it and I was like it makes you really homesick. Yeah. Skilt, skilt, skilt, skilt.
Hey, Sophie and Melissa.
I've recently started dating again after my six-year relationship ended.
I've been seeing a guy for a few days
and I thought we were getting along really well.
On Sunday night, he invited me over to his.
We went out for dinner and then back to his
and I ended up staying at his
and I felt really comfortable.
It was my first sober relationship since my breakup.
The comms have been good ever since, but I've been on Hinge and seen that he's updated his profile.
He's changed his photo to quite a sexy shirtless picture of him.
I know he's not spoken for, so he's well within his right.
However, I can't help but feel he's not all that interested in me, despite us making plans to see each other again.
It feels like he's keeping his options open.
Do you think I should bring it up to him
when I next see him?
Or is there something that I shouldn't be concerned about?
No, no, no, you can't bring that up.
No, you can't bring it up.
But also, I think you need to probably say to yourself,
he is obviously like...
He's obviously keeping his options open.
But you cannot bring that up
what
look
it depends
it's quite a drastic thing
to change your photo
to a topless picture
that's like upping the ante
that's like
he's
no what's happened
is he's like
ticked off his first date
with you
he thought it went really well
he was like
I like a bit of this
I'm feeling myself
she's into me
we're still texting
I'm gonna see who else
is out there
yeah
and that's okay
some people you know he's maybe just not not as into it as they've only slept with each other
once come on he could give him some time i i think it's wrong no you know what maybe he's
just decided that actually like he had a really fun time, but actually he wants to date a lot more and wants to date multiple people.
Changing your photo to a topless photo is like, I'm upping the ante.
I think he just hasn't dated for a while.
And he's like, that was really enjoyable.
Here we go.
He probably is wanting to date more.
But what?
Is there a problem with that?
There isn't a problem with that at all.
It just depends on if you feel like you can handle that or not.
And to me, it sounds like you're already like,
I want to bring it up
when you can't
because it's like,
you can't.
I just wouldn't
because I don't really think
it's necessarily
within your rights
to at this stage.
Do you know what I mean?
You obviously can do anything.
Do I think it would freak him out
and scare him off?
Yes.
Yeah.
But maybe that's a good thing
because if he's not...
Then that answers your question.
Yeah.
So if you can't deal with it.
So what advice are we going to give?
You either ask him.
He probably will run a mile and continue dating other people.
Or don't ask him and see where it goes.
You could do something a bit weird because you're still on Hinge and so is he.
You could change yours and then reply to him like,
Oh, nice new sexy pic. looking good, wink face or something.
And then you've changed yours as well, so it's kind of fine.
Toxic traits.
This is my toxic deep down.
You're showing that you're doing the same thing,
but you kind of don't give a fuck that he is because you're paying him a compliment.
Like, ooh, looking good in that photo.
Or.
But I'm doing the same thing because I've also changed mine.
I'm still clearly on Hinge.
So actually it's fine. you're always getting your answer but hang on a second you're looking on hinge to see that he's changed his photo so you're doing the same thing he's doing
she's looking on hinge to check on him but all he's done is change his photo so it clearly
indicates that he's then you know still looking for other options. So I reckon you change your picture,
maybe change the profile around a bit,
and then reply to him maybe like a day after you've done that.
Like, oh my God, sexy pic.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I think it's fine too.
And then you're bringing it up,
but you're not questioning him on the next date.
Like, look, I went on Hinge and I saw that you changed your photo.
Like, I kind of want to know where we're at I think that's way too intense if you're gonna bring it
up you have to just message him on hinge make a joke out of it and he can't come back and be like
well you have to be like oops yeah it's like funny yeah I don't know the the dating app etiquette
because I've never done it so maybe that is a thing I still think that's too intense he'll be
like why you like you must bring it up,
that's the way you're going to do it. If you must bring it up,
do what Melissa says.
That's the way you're going to do it.
If you can't sleep at night
not knowing why he is,
change his image photo.
I think that's what you're going to do.
Totally.
Producer Brandon's just asked him.
I posted some different things.
Let me tell you you did.
I post the same thing as I do now.
No, you didn't.
It went,
the ante went up.
Yeah.
I don't think it did
it was just
hot hot hot photos
but it
Bali
was the fittest things
I've ever posted
but I was back with him
I was back with him then
but I was posting
so many bikini photos
no no no no
yeah I know
but you're not bikiniing
in London
but you were posting
like I remember thinking
I was in Mallorca
that's why
no no
I'll tell you
you were just doing like
fit face photos
you have an energy for sure you were you were just doing like face photos.
You have an energy, for sure. You were.
You were like posing.
Right, so now what you would do is we'll do a dump of like our food and the sky
and then a couple of photos of us.
Not really like, they were like active selfies.
Right?
I think it's great.
I don't know because I look at my profile now thinking like,
I feel like I post more know because I look at my profile now thinking like,
I feel like I post more selfies than I did before.
I was almost trying to get more people in.
I'm doing loads of stuff with other people.
I'm being really fun, really social.
Whereas now I don't make it.
When I go out with my friends, I never fucking take photos.
But I was thinking in my head when I was with my friends,
every time I'm out having a meal or having fun.
But that's the energy we're talking about.
You need to look like, what is it called?
Did you call it a strap first?
But that's, like, a sexy naked photo.
I don't think you've got to do that if it's up for you.
I don't think that's necessary.
No, nor me.
He's done it, which is a clear indication as to something's going on.
So I agree that you...
I get what you're...
The question is, is that your vibe?
If that was me, my mind would go, shit, if I liked him.
It would be fucking annoying. So I so get that. Same. I, shit, if I liked him. It would be fucking annoying.
So I so get that.
Same.
I'd be like, I lost him.
You know what you could do if it was actually us?
Slip him through my fingers once again.
Oh.
Change the photo.
Don't fucking say anything.
See if he says something to you.
I would do that.
Clearly be active on Hinge.
So then he would then go, is it Hinge as she said or Bumble?
You know what?
I would actually just start dating other guys. That's what you know what i would actually just start taking other guys that's what i would do he'll then see you're active or something or
online or whatever you can see on his he would hopefully then see on yours you've changed your
photo but don't say anything see what happens if he really likes you he'll come calling back and
he'll stop fucking he'll then eventually delete his hinge or whatever you know also like he's
gotta just date a few people like it's not realistic it's not realistic to just
think that you've had one date and you're going to be boyfriend and girlfriend in a dream world
it would be but it's just not realistic I totally agree yeah let us know what happens please because
this is actually there's a lot more to unravel with this maybe you're dating someone else by

Dilemma three. Ready?
Hi, girls.
My boyfriend went on a night out a few weeks ago.
He went back to his friend's house with another... No.
With another one of their friends, a girl.
Not again.
He told me it was nothing to worry about,
so I trusted him completely.
However, his top from that night
has got a big fat makeup mark on it.
That's all right. That's alright.
That's okay.
I felt like something ridiculous was going on.
So I went onto his phone.
I found a photo in a chat with one of his mates.
It was of another girl kissing his neck.
With the caption, I'm all over it, me.
No, it's like this.
I'm all over it, me.
You know, like, yeah, I like that, me. It's like, this is a bit of me. I'm all over it, me. You know, like, yeah, I like that, me.
It's like, this is a bit of me.
I'm all over it.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay, right, got you.
I love orange squash, me.
That's a bit of me, that is.
Yeah, same thing.
Yeah, got you, got you, got you.
Wait, so he sent somebody that text?
So, yes, with the photo of the girl kissing his neck.
Is he okay?
We've got the photo!
Where is it? We're physically sick. Where is it, where is it, where is it where is it oh my god guys this is too much that is not his neck that's his fucking face oh my god i don't
believe my eyes you've got to be joking if she's a friend i've actually kissed not a friend he's
she's not a friend he's gone i'm all over me yeah
that's not fun that's not fun and that's not okay that's red flag because i've kissed so many of my
guy mates on the cheek like that's that to me like that not like that not taking a selfie and
then putting it on the group chat it's the makeup all over the face of his face he is so he's enjoying
every moment and she's never met him before and i can just tell why
i just i can see it in the photo she's got very you know glammed up for this night out she's she's
she's ready for a little bit of your old boyfriend i reckon so listen well no no no listen this is a
tricky one because why is it she's kissed him on the cheek he hasn't kissed her on the cheek he's taken a photo
it's crossing a line are you joking are you okay right he's got his phone out to go yeah go and
take a photo kissing my cheek so i can send it to my mate she's very attractive she's very glammed
up like no no i'm sorry if jamie's got some random girl kissing his face and going,
I'm all over it, mate.
Yes, you know what?
Send it to your girlfriend then if it's innocent.
I'm just thinking in my brain, I'm just thinking in my brain,
like it's one of your friends, but it's not.
It's a random girl that's friends with your friend.
So it's just not the same thing.
And why is he put, I'm all over it, mate?
That means he's fucking loving it.
That means he's like, I'm all over this shit. Also, it's fucking loving it. That means he's like,
I'm all over this shit.
Also, it's like the makeup on the shirt,
that can actually happen so innocently.
I do that to every single boy.
I said hello to my brother and he's like,
fuck's sake Melissa.
And I'm like, oh sorry.
How awful is it?
No, the worst thing is,
sometimes I hold my friend's babies
and I get makeup on the baby grows
and I'm like, oh.
I thought you meant makeup on the baby's face.
I was like, oh no, not those precious cheeks.
No, but on the baby grows
and I hand it back and I'm like, I'm disgusting.
I hate myself.
It's horrible when you get on your own white shirt.
It's just like, hey, I always get that.
Every single boy I hug, I get a little bit of makeup on.
I'm that girl.
So the makeup thing, I think, you know, that happens.
If she's there, like, you have to trust your boyfriend.
But the fact that this photo has happened,
there's definitely something for you not to trust.
And I would be questioning what else has happened
that he hasn't taken photos of.
I personally...
You need to dig deeper.
Just like, why are you so thrilled with yourself
that you've got a girl kissing your cheek?
Like, firstly, loser.
She's savage today and I love it.
Am I?
Firstly, loser.
No, but I'm pissed off.
I'm pissed off as well.
Sorry.
I'm thrilled.
Like, he has a girlfriend.
It's smug and it's it's crap is it
crass it's crass it's crass and smug and we're not here bro no we don't want any of that so he
should be like oh I'm so sorry but I have a girlfriend not do that again let me take a
selfie to send it to the boys I know that's so true that's so true why am I being so lenient
today I would forgive Toby for cheating on me today, clearly.
Where we're just taking a quick peek at your picture too.
We just need to get the full picture.
Yeah.
Sophie's.
Oh, sorry.
Fucking.
Oh my God.
No, no.
This changes my mind.
I don't think he could have cheated on you.
Possibly.
He's absolutely insane if he has. He he could have cheated on you possibly he's absolutely insane if he had
he couldn't have cheated on you and if he has you can go and get any boy you want because you're
absolutely gorgeous and you seem very very sweet with how much you're trusting him I don't know
why but something's not right something's not right I just think he's like off his face in that
oh my god I'm going back myself myself. They just look so sweet.
I didn't see them together and that's weird.
Right, we've got context.
Okay, right.
Change of plan.
Change of plan.
Change of plan.
I think something's happened to him.
Like he's been spiked.
He doesn't look well in that picture.
Now that I've seen him normal with you.
He's got a horrible lack of sunlight in that photo with that girl as well.
He's unwell.
He doesn't look right.
Look right.
He's waxy. I think that we... girl as well he's unwell he doesn't know right look right he's waxy i think that we i think that we're not well there's flaws for investigation yeah
agree we need to dig a little bit deeper if i was you listen listen listen this is this may be my
cynic psycho again i would maybe just ask the friends and be like look i've seen these messages
and i did anything else happen i'm fucking sketched out and he's not being honest with me okay first things first you've got to
confront him and you've got to go in with the line I know what happened you know call his bath
yeah call his bath you know anyway so do you want to have the opportunity to tell you because you've
heard you know everything so you know everything straight face't let him. I've spoken to the girl.
I've seen the photo.
Yeah.
Imagine she's just like a bar,
like a woman from the bar.
You just like...
I know the truth.
I'm now going to give you an opportunity
to tell me the truth.
No, because I don't know why
something's telling me
that she like works behind the bar
and she like liked giving him shots.
I've done a 360
because they're so cute together.
No, because listen to this.
I'm going to read the dilemma again
just so we're really clear
Okay go for it
He went back to his friend's house
with another of their friends
a girl
so she is friends with them
like he knows this girl
it's not a random person
he's picked up
That's what he says
That's what he says
I feel like she would say
that she's never
I think it is a friend
so you know what
he told me it was nothing
to worry about
so I trusted him completely the fact that he said look I'm going back with a friend there So, you know what? He told me it was nothing to worry about, so I trusted him completely.
The fact that he said,
look, I'm going back with a friend,
there's nothing for you to worry about,
to me is a red flag in itself.
Why are you off the bat telling me not to worry
when you're just going back to a house party
with a couple of mates?
I just went about it.
It's not right.
You need to put your investigation cap on,
that little spyglass comes out,
and we go deep.
We go real deep.
This is a whole ordering a pizza to the house situation.
Yeah.
Whatever you can get.
If you need to feed us any more information so that we can help you on this journey,
just please keep doing it.
Absolutely.
Because we are with you all the way and we love you and you're going to be great.
And you're absolutely gorgeous.
So if you don't want to be with him, you'll get any boy.
Yeah, he's an absolute crazy person if he doesn't want to be with you.
If he's done this, he'll live to regret it.
Hi, Sophie and Melissa.
I've always felt extremely happy with my boyfriend.
He's so kind and loving and everything that I could ask for.
We never have had any problems until a week ago, a few weeks ago,
when I started to realize that something strange was going on.
One of my boyfriend's favorite things to do is watch My Little Pony.
That's not real.
Are we talking about tiny little...
Baby horses!
That are fake plastic.
My little pony, my little pony.
I always thought it was a bit weird but I swept past it as though it never went past him just watching it on TV.
Also, I thought. A few
weeks ago, I found some pieces of paper hidden
in the room. He had drawn some provocative
No, you're fucking
joking me. Belasticality.
What's it called?
What's that word called? Beciality.
You mean you like fucking a horse?
Drawn some provocative pictures of him with some
little ponies.
I know how crazy this sounds.
Trust me. I felt sick to my stomach and called all my friends to ask them what to do.
And I found out that it's actually a thing that some men like My Little Pony.
No, it's...
I can't look at him the same, especially after I found out that he had dressed up as My Little Pony at a party a couple of years ago.
I find this so weird and I can't move past it, but I don't know what to do.
Let's not kink shame.
Okay, but...
So he sketched out him.
My little pony fetish.
It's going to be a thing.
It's going to be so weird.
My little pony, how a fetish tore apart a toy collecting community.
It's not right.
It is when a man ejaculates on a piece of merchandise
and subsequently photographs it. Wait, what am I reading? I don't think that's right. It is when a man ejaculates on a piece of merchandise and subsequently photographs it.
Wait, what am I reading?
I don't think that's right.
Listen, it's weird.
Oh my God, oh my God.
It is a thing.
Grown men love My Little Pony.
But why is he watching Indecy?
He's watching porn.
Can I just be honest with you?
I'm sorry.
The main question is, do you like My Little Pony?
Because if you don't, I don't think it's going to work
No listen
Boys have weird fascism
I've had a sex person in on Noonie Reds
It's a real thing
And you can't kink shame
It's really important in life not to kink shame
Because everyone's entitled to their own kinks
Whatever
And as long as it doesn't involve
Underage people and anything illegal
It's okay
It's okay we don't kink shame
But I think you probably I'm uncomfortable on my seat from this conversation as long as it doesn't harm underage people and anything illegal it's okay it's okay we don't kink shake but
I think
I'm uncomfortable
on my seat
from this conversation
I just don't understand
why he's sketching it
like that to me
is just like
really obsessive
and weird
maybe he's quite artistic
and dyslexic or something
I'm just picturing him like
sketching it
so what does he
he's probably got
Toy My Little Pony
he's hanging around
that's okay
you've got to sit him down
you've got to ask him
what it's all about
and then
maybe he can get on board
on it
seriously
yeah because it's
you can't not
no I know it
it's a serious dilemma
it's a really serious dilemma
you've got to sit him down
and maybe
you'll have to dress up
as my little pony
if you want the relationship
to go well
I'm not joking
or
you can't get on board
and you say goodbye
good luck
it was nice knowing you
it's two options
it depends on how much
you love him
like how much it bothers you
like if it's just a king
do you want to be
my little pony
do you want to put on
a purple wig
a lot of women
put on a tail
no they do
what's that thing
a dildo with a tail
oh yeah
to be fair it's a real, a dildo with a tail? Oh, yeah. To be fair.
It's a real thing.
Or a butt plug with a tail.
I swear to God it's a real thing.
I have not done it, obviously.
Sophie, your nose is an awful lot.
Yeah, you've got to be a pony.
You've got to put the tail on.
But I've seen that people do that.
I've seen it about.
Okay, listen, I'm going to put myself in your shoes
and I want to say that I'm not going to kink shame,
but I'm going to be honest.
I'd be thrown off.
I wouldn't be able to have that.
No.
For me, what I really wouldn't like is,
it's borderline bestiality, is it not?
Like, why are you trying to fuck an animal?
It absolutely is.
It's like, how far would he take the fetish?
That's what I would quite like to know.
Thank God it's a fictional character character if it was a real horse
would he be going
to find
would he be going
down to the stable
we need to understand
god knows how far
it could go
it's also
but then what's
throwing me off
is the fact that
he dressed up
as a My Little Pony
he's obviously
just obsessed
so what he wants to be
I think
as Sophie says
if you really love him
you need to see how much you have to air it.
As always, I have to put myself in this position.
Jamie, okay, right, you're married.
You've just found out.
I'm going, you need help.
We've got to go to a therapist.
Perhaps the kink therapist or whatever.
They would go, look, you know what?
This is totally normal.
Some people like octopuses.
This is true too. I don't octopuses. This is true too.
I don't know where I've gotten all these facts.
I wouldn't say it's necessarily normal
because I don't know what is classed as normal.
I think it's definitely a niche thing
and you don't have to be okay with it
because it's not something that is normal.
You don't have to be okay with this.
But if you think that you could be
and you love him that much
and you can't buy your life without him,
ride that pony girl
I'm gonna take my horse to the water
Maybe he could explain it
In a way that's okay. It might be harmless. It might be a Monica Charnler shark situation
What shark situation? You know when she thinks that he's turned on by sharks thrashing and she's like, you know
I'm married to you
I'm willing to make this work
would you like me to
thrash around in the bath
and he's like
what the fuck
are you talking about
maybe
it could be innocent
he could just
it's definitely not
he's done drawings
of him entering
but you need to have
the conversation
and find out
you need to have
the conversation
because like
God only for this
you have kids
and they want to buy
my little ponies
and it's all gonna get weird it's all gonna get weird you've got to ask him you've got to sit him
down please please follow up with that one absolutely this is crucial i won't do anything
