We are currently celebrating Christmas with our families, but we wanted to give you a special little Christmas present, our little tinies. We've been looking back at this year of Wednesdays and we've had so much fun. And we wanted to share our top 10 moments from Wednesdays 2024. We will be going through the Wednesdays archive of the past 365 days and revisiting some of our juiciest dilemmas, fabulous guest appearances, heartwarming story times and the biggest laughs between Melissa and I. We've absolutely loved doing the podcast this year. And we just want to say a huge thank you to all of you tinies for listening but shall we get into

the countdown now sophie yeah let's get into it all righty let's kick things off with number 10 hey girls i recently started dating this really great guy we pretty much went all exclusive from the first date oh my god i freaking love that just me wipe me up straight away wipe me the fuck up and i spent the past month getting to know each other the chat is great i'm really attracted to him and we're at a really exciting stage where i can't keep my hands off him we've been having a lot of sex which is mostly great however he never goes down on me and he doesn't really take part in foreplay. Oh, no. That part seems to be pretty one-sided.

And foreplay is a big thing for me. I've never had this happen to me before. And I don't really know how to deal with it. I don't want to make it awkward. But it's starting to make me feel a bit self-conscious. So I don't know why he doesn't do it. Things have been good apart from this. So I don't want to dampen the mood.

Do I leave it and see if he eventually goes down? Goes down a minute. Eventually does with time. Sorry, that was my mind running away with me. Or do I speak up? Thank you. You've just got to talk to him. Like, maybe he's not had a girlfriend.

I disagree. I would make, like, a neck. Because maybe he doesn't know. Oh, but then you're going to throw... He might be self-conscious that he's just not good at it. That's probably what it is. Or he's just not done it much. Loads of boys haven't...

If they've not had a girlfriend girlfriend they don't know to do that they just know to have sex like there's no foreplay have you ever been with a boy where he's like Ben like can you suck my dick

yes have you not no I don't mean in a relationship with I mean like yes obviously when you're in a relationship

you're comfortable asking each other to do things and it's different but when you're like newly dating, you're comfortable asking each other to do things and it's different. But when you're like newly dating, kind of like this scenario. Yes! Yeah, same. It's terrible, isn't it? But have you ever been like, can you go down on me?

No! We need to speak up, guys. Because the boys are asking for head and we're not. What the hell? We need to speak up. This is so true. They are fucking so confident. They don't care. Is he asking you, are you just willingly going down? That's just so lazy.

I think honestly, I find that so unattractive. That would give me the ick. I'd be like, what the fuck? I've never had someone selfish. No, I haven't. I would say that's actually

probably the opposite way around. But I have. But that's just because I would be like, no. Yeah. Does that make sense? Yeah. Like, speak words, woman just because I would be like, no. Yeah. Does that make sense?

Yeah. Like. Speak words, woman. Like, people are like, if Jamie asks me, I'm just like, no. I'm like, no. I would say, if anything, I'm more selfish. Yeah. I think.

I'm going to take it for sure. If you were to do this. Someone once told me that I was a pillow princess. How insulting is that? That is the funniest thing ever. I was like, yeah, all right. How messy is that? That is the funniest thing ever. How messy is that? Right, Lord. Listen, let's set the scene. You go out for a gorgeous dinner. Yeah. Close to home. We want to be close to home. Shower before dinner. Get all lovely and clean in every nook and cranny. Shave, whatever your normal process is. Do your version of an everything shower. Get that doneunning. Let's go out for dinner.

We get home. You know what? We could just go and have sex on the sofa. Let's watch some TV. Let's put the TV on. No, start kissing on the way home. Stunning. We've got to just heat things up. You've got to start kissing on the way home.

I really care. You're getting into it. You get home. Then what? You start dressing. Also, if you're at dinner, maybe slip into conversation, like sex positions, and maybe be like, I actually fucking love 69. Yeah, 69 is a good way to ease it in.

Because it's so... I think she should ask him and just say, shall we? He's not going to say no. I think he's probably just like, I feel like I'm quite shit at doing it. He just doesn't really know what he's doing. I agree. I think he's never had a girlfriend before. I honestly think unless boys have had some form of long-term girlfriend or even two weeks.

Do you even like now have like lessons with Jamie about things? Like yeah. Yeah, I would. But I'm very vocal about like no, no, no. Same.

Wrong area. Same, like left, right. Yes. Because it moves. We've said it loads of times. What is that? Why does it move? It moves.

Don't know. It just moves. It's really annoying when that happens. Sometimes I don't even have one. Like sometimes I don't even have one. Sometimes I don't even have a clit or a G-spot or whatever it is. G-spot's in the arsehole.

Is it? Yes. Okay, well, what do I mean then? Do you do that by penetration or by stimulation? Oh my gosh. Do you remember at school everyone would ask that question? I've never been asked that question at school. Everyone would be like, I can do it from both and it was like

fuck you're so lucky mine depends the one's way easier than the other well no you either can or you can't like some people can't from penetration

for me it's much harder than the other one yeah the other one's so easy just exactly so be get her in the hot tub

and yes okay right one is easy peasy so okay right let's just break this down I think you're literally getting together Exactly. So be Garen the hot tub and... Yes. Okay, right. One is easy peasy. So, okay, right. Let's just break this down. I think you're literally getting together and you just say,

shall we 69? It's very easy. Gauge how you think you need to go with it. Because it's easier than saying, can you let me out? Or can you go down on me? That's like quite punchy. Can we just talk about what people say with this?

Can you give me head? Can you give me head? Can you eat me? That's another way of how someone say. Also, I never knew that give me head was for a girl. head? Can you eat me? That's another one I've heard someone say. Also, I never knew that give me head was for a girl. I think go down on me

is the nicest way of saying it. I personally would feel much comfier saying can we say 69 rather than can you go down. Because you're both getting something

and it's a lovely experience. and also if you're uncomfortable doing it like that, go on your side. Lying on your side is much easier. Oh my god,

I've never done that. Much easier. Wow, and so much more your whole, like, reserving a lot of modesty. Modesty with your bums not in there. He's not looking down the butt crack. Please keep us updated. That is the most real we've ever been on this podcast about our sex lives.

Jesus Christ. And I loved everyone out of it. Number nine. I have just done NAD. It's called's called the fountain of youth I've not had any bad effects I thought it'd make me really awake and like I wouldn't sleep like I've what I will say I have slept so well it's frightening like I close my eyes and I don't go up wake up for pee you know me I'm up for pee and I wake up rested right I've never in my life experienced anything were you like I've been exposed were you like fuck I really knows I also

knew you were like what the fuck but you weren't saying it because everyone's like what the fuck but I've done this I've done this since I was 15. Do you know when it happened at uni? I think it might have been anxiety. It's definitely an anxiety thing. It's an anxiety thing. So Sophie does this fascinating thing. She's crying.

We're sharing a room in Paris. And before we brush our teeth, we both go for a wee, start brushing our teeth, wash our face, whatever. Then we get into bed. Five minutes after being in bed, not even joking, five minutes. Maybe 2.5 minutes. She goes for a wee. And I'm like, but our face, whatever. Then we get into bed. Five minutes after being in bed, not even joking, five minutes. Maybe 2.5 minutes. She goes for a wee.

And I'm like, but you've just been. Like, literally 10 minutes ago you washed your face, whatever. Go back to bed. Then we're gnashing away for another 20 minutes.

She goes up and goes for another wee. I don't think anything's coming out for you when you go for a wee. Nothing. There's no drops. I'm sat there on my squeeze. And I went,

again, she went, I just can't unless I try. I'm like, what? It's like, absolutely unhinged. And then, 10 minutes after we've gone, night, she went, I just can't unless I try. I'm like, what? It's like, absolutely, I'm hit. And then, ten minutes after we've gone, night, turn the lights out. She gets up again and I'm like, are you joking?

It was honestly like, if I'd have recorded it, it was like, honestly, the weirdest thing. I was like, there's no more wee inside of you. No. I sit there and I squeeze. I lean forward. That's so bad for you. I know. It must be like a panic attack thing.

I don't feel anxious, but like, I think I lean forward. That's so bad for you. I know. It must be like a panic attack thing. I don't feel anxious, but like I think I need a wee. I think there's wee that's going to pour out of my bladder when I close my eyes. Does anyone have that? No. No one?

Oh my God, I thought it was quite common. I've never known. My manager has it. And if I don't go to sleep within the, like that's why sometimes I'm like, I need to go to sleep because if I don't go to sleep

within the two minutes, I will why sometimes I'm like, I need to go to sleep. Because if I don't go to sleep within the two minutes. She'll go for another week. I will do, sometimes I do 20 before, like, it can get on the edge. Yeah, it's really weird. So I had this at uni and I thought I had a bladder issue. So I went to the doctor and they were like, no, it's anxiety. And this is like way before I knew what anxiety was. Oh no, I shouldn't laugh.

No, because I don't feel anxious. It must be like an OCD. It's like an OCD thing. And I remember seeing you, I was like, again. Every time you went, again. No, you were actually quite good. You didn't even stare the second eye. You just, like, your head was down. I was used to it by the second eye. She was like, wow.

Your eyes just completely went across. When you did that. You were like this. And it was fascinating. Wow. Who knew? Sorry. Megan has it as well. I would hear her crumpling across the floorboards because she hardly wasn't in her room. And so it's definitely a thing people have.

It's unhinged. That's what I will say. So if you honestly, you can go for like 20 weeks a night. My bladder feels full. It's almost like cystitis. Do you ever get that when you have cystitis? Yes.

You need a week all the time. It's that every night before I go to sleep. Imagine the pain I go through. Number eight. It was 2016. I'd just finished my A-levels, broken up with my boring boyfriend and enjoying a drunk Silly Summer soundtrack

by Drake's One Dance. Oh my God, I used a fucking water banger. Every Friday night, me and my homegirls would get ready and go out for a freaky Friday, which was a cheap night in one of the sticky dance floor clubs in my town. It was the kind of place where anybody would get with anybody, and for the past few weeks, I'd been getting with this boy, let's call him Nathan. That night was different. Nathan had started chatting to another girl

and left me feeling like chopped liver. After one too many VKs, I decided to take matters into my own hands and went into the bathroom and sent him a Snapchat of me with my tits up with the caption, are my nips getting licked tonight or not? I'm dead. In the midst of me being drunk,

I dropped my phone in the loo, which made it stop working. Not the time. I left the bathroom with my broken phone to find my friends looking at me with a face of shock. Oh my god, she put it on my story. No, no. She did it.

I hadn't sent the Snapchat to Nathan. I'd actually put it on my story. I don't believe it. I was too drunk to remember the past when just some minutes of panic. I just thought, fuck it, my views look good. And I was too drunk to care about having anxiety over something I couldn't change. is just genius I didn't get with Maiden that night but kissed a whole load more boys who I think liked my no fucks attitude oh my god that's so

funny it's a night which went down as history for me and the girls and being with them the next morning as they helped me get my phone back up and running and get the story down. Help soothe the hangover. Oh my God, that is honestly golden. That is unbelievable. That is so funny. Are my nips getting licked tonight? Or what? Guys, keep sending. I am obsessed with the gumption.

Same. That is unbelievable. Number seven. Help. My boyfriend and I, let's call him Dan, should be celebrating our third anniversary together this Valentine's Day. Or just let me say we're together on Valentine's Day. That's sweet.

February 14th. We'll also put a deposit down on a house and are set to move in with each other in a few months. That's a big, big step. But that's all up in the air because of some major shit that's gone down with Dan's housemate, Maisie. Oh. I've always felt weird about their relationship.

She's overly touchy, has no boundaries and seems to hate me. My boyfriend organised a surprise party for me and she made the whole night about her. He was so focused on her that he forgot to bring my birthday cake and sing happy birthday to me. I'm fuming for you. I'm fucking fuming. Oh my god, I feel sick with jealousy and anger i would be so there's nothing worse than that feeling that there's someone else in the picture like i can't even yeah and you're pure jealous like you can't you're it takes over your whole body jealous is the worst feeling you can feel like last week i

was scrolling on instagram and in the back of of mutual posts with dan kissing maisie no I'm upset. Oh my god, what the fuck? What the fuck? Why are they doing this? It's so outrageous. It's not okay. Can't buy me with money mate i didn't forgive him but i decided to remain in really in a relationship with him a few days ago i stayed at his house i know i shouldn't have done it but i went on his phone i found a fake calculator app and i couldn't believe what i saw okay so it's an app that looks like it's a calculator but it's not it's like out like

unlocked album with like you can keep photos and stuff in what the fuck hidden on his phone was a full album of her nudes and videos of them having sex recorded over six months ago oh my god i've got goosebumps all over me that is freaking her oh my god oh i actually can't i can't i've got goosebumps everywhere when i confronted him he blamed me for them having sex and that he had to go elsewhere to seek pleasure I don't know what to do with myself we're supposed to be moving in together and start a life together and that's all been completely upside down we're also supposed to be going to Paris this Valentine's Day to celebrate our nursery and I can't get a refund for anything do we do it as a reset trip no fucking leave the guy he's obviously oh my god what the hell is this even something

that you're even considering i'm no i'm sorry i'm so upset i'm so upset that you're even considering it you are worth so much more he is dead gone you will never forgive him or speak to him he also isn't he's not even remorseful he's blaming you for cheating on you with his housemate guy will cheat and cheat and cheat and cheat. Also, you know what's really fucked up? That amazing fuck you. He's kept a video, like an album of it. And that means he's looking at it every time he's having a wank.

I can't. I honestly can't. Right. Listen. This is the most painful thing ever. And no one deserves to go through this. But you are. And you're strong enough to get through this but you are and you're

strong enough to get over this you're strong enough you're gonna find another person you i listen to me here you do not go back to this guy do not under any circumstance you block him now you get all your ducks in a row you take a girlfriend or a family member a sister someone else in that paris trip if you can't get a refund or you take the hit on losing the money no you go with your friend and you do it if you can't get anyone to go with you take the hit on the money do not for a second ever consider this person in your life equation ever fucking again ever ever ever in it now and you feel like you're like there's a way out of this there is no way out that is unforgivable there's no way you can go back to this this isn't a one time this is a full-on affair he's probably got feelings for her no no he's also an arsehole

the manipulation of them him being like you didn't give me enough sex so i had to go elsewhere to find it what the fuck is that i can't not the calculator i'm devastated for you i feel really upset i feel really deceived for you that is a level of deceit there is no forgiving him don't even ask or question it like he's just gonna lie don't believe anything he says he won't get your stuff and you walk out of that and i know that's much easier said than done it's not just gonna be a case of like no i'm done it's to be one of the hardest things you probably ever go through in your life. I can't even begin to imagine what that would feel like.

No, I feel so sick for you. I am so, so, so sorry for you, but you deserve so much better than that. And if anything, that will make the breakup easier because he's been such a pig. You can hate him. Channel that into hate and channel that then back into yourself

being the best version of you. On no circumstances you can hate him channel that into hate and channel that then back into yourself being the best version of you on no circumstances you can go back you need to tell everyone about this tell everyone that you have him block maizey delete all the chats delete the number delete the chats delete anything group chat that you're in with him so you can't find his number because the temptation you know we have moments of weakness and like we were talking sophie and jamie and i went for breakfast the other day and we were talking about how when you break up with someone the coping mechanism is the same as when somebody dies you only remember all of the good things even when someone's cheesed on you to cope with the loss of like him not being in your life you'll remember all the good stuff and be like forget all the bad

and you will convince yourself oh you know what it's been three years you know there's so many good memories override the bad ones like we're building a life to met together like we bought this house now like i'm gonna lose out on him and then you also have this other element of it which will be jealousy because you'll be thinking now maisie's gonna get him and do you know what i mean like it will give you this whole other thing yeah so i get it and also there's probably going to be a part of you that will want to go and speak to Maisie about it because I would have that. I'd be like, I need to know every detail. Which you don't need to know.

I would do that and then pull her hair. But you would... I would have to, wouldn't you? Like, I have to sign to her. Like, I'm raging with Maisie. Moral of the story is, if I'm going to be honest, I don't really think we can blame it on them living with a girl. I think he was obviously going to cheat no matter what,

by the sounds of it. Or unless she's like some Victoria's Eatin' Model walking around with her ass cheese out and she's like

knocking on his door at night like can I come in temptations really probably like let's not put it on her

he's the one in a relationship we hate him we hate him whatever his name is I'm disappointed in her

as a woman and as someone who also knows the girlfriend and like has been around the two of them together

I'm disappointed but he's truly the one in the relationship that's you know been disloyal and there's no forgiving that in my eyes like he is done see you later all you do now is you go use finding a way to get out the house or like changing your situation and like kicking him out on his ass as your motive and like distraction so that you don't go back to him like that's all you're focused on right now and then the next thing will be your focus on like feeling your best self like focus your energy elsewhere distract distract distract and slowly by slowly you will come out the other side and you'll realize what a class a piece of poop he is number six last year i left my high-paying job in London to move to Australia

to be with who I thought was the love of my life. He's also English. We didn't have the best start to the relationship as I found out he'd been with a girl the night before I got to Australia, but I chose to forgive him. However, things haven't been so smooth sailing since either. My partner's obsessed with golf. Yeah, I love this guy already.

Don't worry about it, brother. So much so that it's affecting our relationship no way he buys me flowers writes me poems and all the other stuff but will still prioritize golf yeah over quality time he plays about five times a week i call it obsessed five times a week that's upset there's no problem there's no problem i've taken some days off work to allow us to spend more time together, but he wants to play more golf. Do I mean that little to him

that he'd rather play golf than spend a day with his girlfriend? As well as this, when I ask him if I was to move back to England, would he come with me? However, he always tells me he would prioritize his own happiness and he would stay in Australia.

Oh. Do you think it's time to call it quits on the relationship or am I asking for too much? Call it quits. He's in Australia. Oh. Do you think it's time to call it quits on the relationship or am I asking for too much? Call it quits. He's in Australia. He cheated on you. He's mid-twenties. Never date a boy

in the mid-twenties. Twenty-eight is the only time you can start doing it if you want to settle down with him. Well, I started dating Toby when he was twenty-four. So let's not fucking say that again. I'm also twenty-eight

and I still haven't found the one. So... Yeah, but I think like Toby's an exception and I think if he's acting this way and being like I don't want responsibilities it's lending itself

to that he still might just be like if he's prioritising golf over her he doesn't want to spend time with you no he's choosing golf

golf is an escapism as a golfer I first of all never look at my phone it's four hours if you're bad five hours and it's

you escape you're there to escape you're with your buddies you don't want to think about anyone god sounds lovely it's lovely it's you escape you're there to escape you're with your buddies you don't want to think about anyone God sounds lovely it's lovely it's great

how many times a week twice a week I play golf well once actually that's great everyone's got to have a hobby but this is mental I agree

five times a week does he have a job mate if you're listening to this can you what do you play off like a cat I mean I'm going to Australia soon as well

so hey hit me up we can play some golf no sorry this is not bro romance bro romance but yeah guys do you know that

I had a story that when I first dated my first half boyfriend called Hugo I shout out Hugo he asked me oh where is he now

he's in Australia oh my god this might be Hugo oh my god guys he asked me oh where is he now he's in Australia oh my god this might be Hugo oh my god he asked me weirdly like if I play golf I call my dad

from downstairs I'm like dad what's a really good handicap for a golfer my dad goes I don't know and I was like not too good

not too bad dad's like 14 or something so I go yeah 14 handicap next day takes me to the golf course oh my god

14 handicap is actually quite good. Never played. I never played once in my life. Lied, everything. So, yeah, I got caught out doing that. Don't do that. Five times a week is literally like,

he's having an affair on the golf course. He does not want to be in that house. I'm not going to lie. Is it golf? Is it golf? I'm like, how can you play golf that often? Who's he going to play golf with? Oh, my God.

Do you think, guys? Well, I just think it's too often. Do you not have a job? Something's not adding up. Do we think there's a scenario where she maybe could just go mi5 and you know yeah i would go to that golf course get on that golf buggy and just first of all find out what golf course or golf club he works at get a caddy's job it's very easy i agree right and then just you know follow him see what he's doing is he flirting with other caddy girls? Is it like, what's going on there? I agree.

There's something going on. Like, what have you got to lose at this point? My advice is break up with him or go to the golf course. One or the other, you're going to see something. And if you go to the golf course, he is just playing golf, which I feel weird that he is. I still break up with him because he's obviously... Also, go at least three times

because he might actually go play golf one of those times. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I just think the five times is a bit excessive and I think it's the line. I agree. There's something

going on. So go to the third one and see if he's actually going to the golf course. Keep us updated and don't worry. You're so young and

everything works out in the end. If it's not going to be, it's not going to And also you're in Australia. Yeah, there's so many hot guys in Australia.

Should we keep going with number five? I have a dilemma. I've been best friends with this girl for years and she's been with her partner for four years she introduced us a year ago and we hit it off right away like best friends and that's all i thought of him as until early this year i asked another friend if she thought my best friend's boyfriend was flirting with me over text i thought nothing of it at first and let it be two weeks later i'm around at their place. She has left the flat, leaving me and him there as it was early in the morning and she had work at seven.

Her boyfriend then gets into bed with me and we start doing bits together. Sorry, how have you just written that into a sentence like it's so casual? What the actual fart?

What the actual fart? I can't stand this girl writing it in. I really don't think you should write it in to us because you are a bastard. I know, I'm kind of the same. She's also loving it.

We agreed that it was wrong and it can't happen again. I'm furious. Oh god! The next day we slept together after work. No, this can't be right. She can't be writing in there. This secret affair has lasted for five months. No, Melissa,

you've got to be having a laugh. In these five months he has told me that he, he wishes he'd met me first, said if we were together, he would marry me. Wait, before they left for their trip, her boyfriend told me

he was in love with me and I confessed that I felt the same and he was over the moon. No, no, no, I'm not, I'm uncomfy. He felt that he could be

himself with me and not with my best friend. However, they recently went away the day before they got... Oh, for fuck's sake. No! The day before they got back, I get a message and a video. He's now proposed to my best friend. We go off to saying he loves me.

What the fuck? I just spat everywhere out of complete, like... I'm so amused. Do I confront him about it all and ask why he started this in the first place or do i tell my best friend that she's marrying him or do i leave it alone and let her be happy please help this is a real pickle my friend a pickle right i'm gonna be brutal i don't think that you should be you shouldn't be no you should be ashamed to write this in ashamed i'm so confused because if he's in love with you,

like, why the fuck wouldn't he, why would he propose to her? And also, like, why are you having an affair with your best mate's boyfriend? What the fuck is going on? I don't understand how she's just slipped

into conversation. How did we get to, he slipped into bed with me and he started doing bits. I'm like, no. Also, like, you were like, I just saw him, I was his best friend

until he just climbed his bed and we started fucking each other. Like, no. No. Also, like, you were like, I just saw her and I was her best friend until we just climbed this bed and we started fucking each other. Like, no. No. Also, I love it how in this message you're like, I don't, there's no, like, I feel so guilty. I love her so much. No.

There's just, there's none of that. It's just, he loves me and I love him too. You know what? I could deal with it if it was like, I met this guy and we just fell in love. But like, your best friend, you're in the same house. They house me. Listen listen boys lie okay he was telling you what you wanted to fucking hear to keep your mouth shut wait why is the boy doing that he's psychotic i'm so confused people do this shit all the time but why why would he do that wouldn't he be like sleepless at night with anxiety about

the fact that his best friend his girlfriend and his best friend live together pretty much and they're both sleeping with him and he's lying to them and it's just so chaotic I'm really sorry but your best friend has zero intuition

if she doesn't think there's something going on I'm really what the fuck I'm really sorry but like you need to leave both your shit friend and your best friend

so like quit that friendship what's she gonna do I would disappear is she gonna say anything no I would disappear is she gonna drop that bomb no I would you've done enough? I would disappear. Is she going to say anything? No, I would disappear. Is she going to drop that bomb? No, I think you should. You've done enough damage.

I would disappear at this point. No, no. I think you need to drop the bomb and then you need to fuck off because you can't let that girl, you can't let that girl going into that marriage thinking that he's,

it's all dandy and fine. True, true, true. He's an absolute snake. And be like, look, I'm just as bad. I'm fully aware that we're going to break up after I tell you

what's going to happen. Yeah, friendship breakup. Our friendship is done and I'm aware of that unless you want to still be friends with me but I'm aware of bad. I'm fully aware that we're going to break up after I tell you what's going to happen. Yeah, friendship breakup. Our friendship is done and I'm aware of that unless you want to still be friends with me, but I'm aware of the fact that you're probably not going to want to see my face again, but you need to know what's happened.

It's been this, this, this, this. I wish you well. See you later. Absolutely. You do that. And you're going to have to get over this boy because I know you're in love with him, but also...

He never loved you. He never loved you. He really never did. It was all a lie it was always the friend otherwise he would have let me tell you he would have gone out with you probably just fancied you i know he's a greedy pig how can he have two girls at once this is the weirdest he would have shagged his girlfriend she would have got up and gone to work and then he would have been like oh fancy a bit of round two and just snuck into the house

no no you you guys. I would recommend doing an STI check as well because he's probably doing it with other women, not just you two. Like, if he's doing it that close to home, he's doing it further from home as well. Do you know what I mean? I just can't get over that you let him get in your bed and sleep with him when your friends left. Like, I can't get over your morals.

I'm sorry. That, to me, is the worst part. Like, okay, right. So this is where the line gets drawn for me where you should have said something he tried to get into your bed you should have been like that's fucking weird

like red flag red flag red flag but you could have thought but then if he tries to physically do something then you go

no that's it I'm telling Helen or whatever her name is that you tried to do that he's regardless before there's even a pickle there we hate him by the way

110% yeah he's way more in the wrong than well actually I'd say he's equal because you're he's disgusting we hate him by the way 110% yeah he's way more in the wrong well actually I'd say he's equal because you're the best friend I'm just shocked that you don't feel like

I don't feel like you think this is a big deal like you're like he got into bed and we started doing bits and the next day we had sex uh

at no point did you think feel bad on my best friend do I think I should tell her? No. Like, what's going on?

Can't get over it. Oh, my God. I'm really confused, Alice. I know. I'm completely shook. It's the tone in which it's been written. It's the tone in which, let's just reread this. The next day we slept together after she left for work.

That's it. I felt really bad about it. No. And then it just goes, this secret affair has lasted for five months. We've escalated very quickly. So is it every time she's leaving for work, you're just shagging about? They must live together. Also, where's the find my friend?

Like, yeah, like what? Oh my God, because it's right under her nose. She'd never suspect it. She'd never. Oh, you're really giving me the idea. I reckon this sort of thing happens more often than we think. No, no, no. People shag their fucking nannies.

People shag their brothers and sisters. Like, not their brothers and sisters. I've told you that story. I've told you that story. Yeah. Last but not least, you've got to go up to this girl knowing full right that you, she, I hope she never talks to you again. And you apologize and you say, look, this, and then you feed her the piece of information

so that girl can get rid of that snake and get on her merry way. Yep. Wow. Number four. One of my long-term friends kindly offered to look after my cat and stayed over at the flat whilst I was away. I'm a bit of a clean freak,

so before she arrived, I cleaned my place from top to toe and made it sparkling ready for her stay. That's so nice. Lovely. When my boyfriend and I got home, all looked fine, but on closer inspection, it wasn't great.

Oh. There were food splatter marks all up the kitchen walls. There were crumbs on the floor. The handles and switches were greasy. There was a huge stain on my sofa, and hair was everywhere. What? She's had parties, and people round and not cared.

The hell? Some people have real bad cleanliness problems. No, no. So I decided to insert things closer and while looking in the bathroom I found pubes out of the shower wall and to my horror she had used my razor. No.

I know that because I had left it in a different place. That's really, really, really, really unhygienic. It gets worse. I decided to look at my bedroom drawer and pulled out my bullet. No, I don't believe it.

It's a sorprey lube, which I do not have. So she definitely used it while she was staying there. Didn't even wash it. No! This seems to be a reoccurring... God, how horny are these girls?

Why do people think it's okay to use someone else's fucking vibrator? I've had to throw away my bullet and razor, but I feel like my privacy has been completely invaded. I also had to pay and get in professional cleaners because it was just too dirty. She asked if she could stay again when I go away, but what do I say? Do I confront her or not say anything

and just make excuses that she's unable to say? I'm really sorry, but that would be the end of our friendship. I really don't mean to be mean, but if you stayed at my house and put... Anyone staining my sofa would be worse than the poofs. The poof... No, no, no. Listen, listen.

You know what? If I stayed on the sofa, these things happen. She should have been honest and been like... I'd be so pissed off. I'd be so annoyed. I know I would be annoyed, but I wouldn't be grossed out. And if she was like, I fucking stained your sofa, I'm so sorry, I will pay for it to get fixed. Yeah, but if she didn't say anything, there's so annoyed. I know I would be annoyed, but I wouldn't be grossed out. And if she was like, I'm fucking staying just for you, I'm so sorry, I will pay for it to get fixed. Yeah, but if she didn't say anything, there's hairs everywhere.

Not saying something is really bad. I mean, the mess and the filth, we can't always expect people to be as clean as us. That's just something that is life. But the pubes and the shower, there's no excuse for that. It's all really weird. Why is she not covering it up? No, but the vibrator, there's no excuse for that it's all really weird why is she not covering it up no but the

vibrator there's just really there's there's absolutely nothing anyone can say to make that okay and there's nothing that she can say to make it really depends on age because actually i'm looking back at it and like when i was younger like i would share braces with my friends like i'm talking like when i was like on holiday of my mate there is no part of me that a vibrator like no i would be horrified joking a bullet as well feels worse than a dildo it's so small and just like it's really got in there it's also with a strawberry lube like wash it you don't use it in the first place no but if you are just like cover your tracks i know this is another thing it's almost like she doesn't give a fuck it's almost like she's't give a fuck about being found out. It's almost like she's like,

really enjoyed the stay. Can I come again? Ugh. What? So you can use my vibrator again? I'm also just like, with the hairs, like she needs to cover up.

I'm picturing like, pube hairs everywhere. I'm almost then thinking, is it a boy? Like to have that many pubes, like would it be a boy? No, because a boy's what? Is he putting the bullet up his arsehole?

That's wrong. No, no. As in she's had a boy over and they've used the bullet to get out there. And then the boy's had a shower and given himself a trim. Because I feel like when a girl shaves, you're under the shower. Right, let's just logistically go through this. You'd be under the shower. It's like one of those places.

It's a trimmer. Someone's been in there with a trimmer. Yeah, that's why she doesn't know about it. And that's why there's pubes all up the walls. And the boy obviously didn't think to push the bullet and she was just having the time of her life. He shoved it in there. This makes freaking sense.

Because why would she, as a girl, and they were getting a bit drunk, they splattered some pasta sauce up the wall. And they were like, oh God, yeah, yeah, yeah. They didn't realise. We're in a stunning place for free. I mean, where's the cat at this point? If only the cat had eyes. The boy has been there. We've solved the wall. Oh God, yeah, yeah, yeah. They didn't realise. We're in a stunning place for free. I mean, where's the cat at this point? If only the cat had eyes.

The boy has been there. We've solved the mystery. And you know, she's had a bit of a crazy week and she's got a bit drunk and she's used your vibrator and used your razor in preparation like,

shit, he's coming over. I forgot my razor. Gonna use hers. Right. It makes sense now because they're cooking spag bol. It's splattering up the wall. Yeah, she's so horny

because they've already started turning off the light switches before I was like why was she so horny like can she not just think I'm not going to use that but if she's drunk

with her boyfriend it makes fucking sense but it's also having lube that a boy would bring that or she would bring that knowing she's going to have sex you don't bring lube if you use a vibrator

for yourself do you well I mean I wouldn't so she's obviously had a boyfriend which makes it even worse. I can't bear that. I think you've done the right thing by getting that sterilized cleaner in there for a start. You know what?

You've done the right thing with that. If I was you, if you want to save the friendship, just fucking let it go and don't ever let her stay in there again and you've learned your lesson. I would just say straight up, did you ever wear that? Because it would be weird to me. I need to know and I would rather she did. The bullet's unacceptable. The whole thing is just awful. It's quite traumatic. If you asked me to do that, I would be like, me. I need to know and I would rather she did. The bullet's unacceptable. The whole thing is just awful.

It's quite traumatic. If you asked me to do that, I would be like, you've lost your mind. You want to borrow my bullet? No. Also, the thing is, some people don't see mess and don't see stuff. So she would have left thinking, oh, it looks fine.

Not knowing. She was never going to know. I use the vibrator and the razor. She's never going to know. That will go completely over her head. I just think you say to her when she asks to stay the next time with the cat be like oh no no actually um one of my other friends is already saying all my mum's gonna say just make up a white lie by the way you're so right like people have said in my house and

they've obviously left and they're like it was so clean like even i don't think my sister has was people like that and i can tell if the slightest things were moved i'm like there's dust on the floor like what's and i think it's filthy but they're like it's so clean same let's get into the top three guys we've got a serious crisis because we've spoken about it loads on this podcast before me and Melissa get Botox in our jaw and we get it to reduce the master muscle anyway ages ago way about when I feel weird honestly maybe five years ago now. Five years ago, I had it so frozen

when Melissa, no, it must have been six when you first met me. And Melissa says that she used to just look at me and be like, really pretty,

but why does she smile? Ugly smile. I literally just thought she doesn't have a nice smile. If it goes into the wrong muscle or the wrong nerve, it can freeze the smile. And basically,

it's happened. So, this side is frozen and it's just a real bad situation i don't know i was laughing so much yesterday so she smiles like with one side yeah and it's just ugly like i just look i look rank to be honest i don't know how long it's gonna take she was asking me yesterday the day before like does it look bad and i honestly just couldn't stop pissing myself it looks so bad she, oh my God, you just don't look like this.

It is horrendous. That's what she said to me. I was like, she was like, Sophie, don't worry about being honest.

Horrendous. I try really hard to smile. This is every time she was smiling at me, I thought she was like fake smiling almost. I was like,

you're not really smiling. You're not really trying. She's like, this is me trying with all my might. It looks like you're like pretending. I know like, you're not really smiling. You're not really trying. She's like, this is me trying with all my might. Yeah, it looks like you're like pretending. Yes. I know.

So that made me laugh so much. And the funniest thing is, obviously I don't tell Jamie these things because like he, even despite him like injecting Botox into his face, he thinks that Botox is like filler or facelift. If I do it anyway. He's my difference.

But I'm like, you do it. Yeah, then he should really know. You can't be doing it. Anyway, he's looking at me and I'm like laughing away at a dinner table. And he goes. I go, what?

He's like, you know when someone's staring at you, you know. I know. I'm self-conscious about it. And I know he's staring at me. And he's like this. Small little mouth. Because obviously when I laugh, I'm like, really? It's killed me.

And I just know he keeps looking at me thinking, my wife looks quite buttered up in it. Don't know what's going on around her. I hate it. This is me doing it, Anne. Ben is like, you're not. He's like, no, no, give me a big hug. This is it.

It's frozen. Look at me, look at me. It's really funny. I drive around in my car like this. Because I just kind of stretch it. So anyone driving past me just sees me like this. Need to chew chewing gum all the time. Yeah, do it constantly.

And the face gym thing apparently on it. Yeah. Helps. Yeah. Number two. I could personally never be attracted to an American boy because their personality and their humour, for me personally, I find just icky.

I've never watched any reality TV where I found an American personality attractive. No, I agree. That chat is not my vibe. Yeah, I just can't get on board with it. No, they are fundamentally, like their conversation is so different. So different. It's wild. American boy chat is just so different it's wild American boy chat is just so different

okay American boy chat is like so fucking intense oh my god hey how are you you look like a stand up girl I bet you went to school and got really good grades

and how are your family like no whereas a boy is like what's happening what's happening girls you alright no an English boy's chat is like

necks which I don't know there's a fine line I don't love a neg all the time What's happening, girls? You all right? No, an English voice chat is like, necks. Which happens as a fine line. I don't love a neck all the time. I'm a bit like, shut up. You know, like, constant necks. You're just a bit like, oh, I've got something better to do.

I don't know. You've got to, like, be a fine line of cheeky. Why are we talking like we're both single? Because these programs, it's anthropology at the end of the day. It's just observing other humans go about their business and like try and get a try and get a mate okay should I tell you my 101 thing that I will fancy about English boys very rarely you'll get an American guy that's weird I think any

weirdness in an English boy any weirdness at all I'm like I'm in love but like funny weird you definitely can get weird blokes that are American. You can get everyone. Okay, but not like weird, like, I watched Lizards all weekend. Like, that's not doing it for me. Like, hyper weird. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They say weird comments. You're like, what the fuck did that come from? Yeah, and it's just jokes and you laugh at them.

Yeah. Some people are just vanilla and some people aren't. I agree. What's the ickiest thing an American boy can say? Just something overly, like, deep. I don't know if it's ingrained in us because we grew up watching American TV it doesn't ever really sound like there's much authenticity behind an American voice saying something like that to me and I don't know if it's the accent I don't know what it is I don't I just find it difficult to watch them having a conversation because I'm like I just

don't believe you I'm really not that good with deep chat anyway in general like I love saying I love you but I really struggle with like really deep compliments so maybe I'm quite British in that way maybe some girls like that no every girl can't surely American boys just become that deep way and then English boys are like we're that cheeky chappy yeah that is that stereotype but they'll get deep at the right moment I always think and occasionally like there are definitely loads of English boys that give me major ick there's no American boys that don't give me the ick, whereas there are lots of English boys that don't.

That's because we're English and we love English humour. We're just biased towards our own sense of humour. Australians and English people, we have, like, the same banter. Australians, I fancy them down to a D. It's the English charm. Nothing can beat the English charm. When someone's got it... The Irish charm as well.

They've got it. Oh, yeah. The Irish charm, the Australian charm, the English charm. I'd's got it. The Irish charm as well. They've got it. Oh, yeah. The Irish charm, the Australian charm, the English charm. I'd say English probably could win, but. Yeah. Unfortunately, there's nothing. What a day. I don't feel like Americans really quite have that.

No, that's not my vibe. Some people would literally die hard for that. And like, that is their dream. It's like having an Italian or a French accent or an accent for them. Like, it's just gorgeousness all around. I don't love an accent. Unless it's Australian. Number one.

As someone in their late 30s, I'm probably one of your older listeners, but I just wanted to say to everyone out there that it's never too late to start again. I was very settled in a five-year relationship. We were engaged, owned a house together, but I wasn't entirely happy. I was too scared to admit this to anybody because I was scared starting again at almost 40.

I kind of accepted that I would remain in an unhappy relationship for the rest of my life. After hearing empowering stories on your podcast, I decided to open up to my friends and family about how I was feeling. I felt instant relief. Yeah, the best feeling, isn't it? I moved back home, reconnected with my friends, made more time for my family, got a promotion at work, and can finally say that I feel like me again. Yes.

This deserves a round of applause. Goosebumps. I have recently been back in touch with a guy that I met in secondary school. Hello. We both had huge crushes on each other, but never told each other how we felt at the time. Around seven years ago, we bumped into each other. There there was instant chemistry and we dated for six months or so I fell so in love

but we were at different stages of our lives I knew we couldn't be together so our relationship came to an end we didn't speak for a long time but I found out recently that he had been holding a torch for me for all these years and that he thought he lost me forever when he found out I was engaged to somebody else after my breakup I reconnected with him we met up and found that we finally on the same page and we discovered that our chemistry and connection was still there it's more intense and appreciated than ever before we are now in a relationship madly in love planning an exciting future together I wanted to say that if you are in a relationship that doesn't feel right that there is so much out there for us.

So don't waste time. Speak up, be brave. And most importantly, always follow your heart. I love you so much. Whatever you said, that's what we say. I honestly think that's the best story

we've ever fucking had. That. Melissa's actually got tears. So many people would just sit, settle and do that. And you know, they probably then get divorced when they're like 50 or something. And just be like, I just had a fucking miserable time.

A lot of people in their second marriage are like, I'm alive. Really inspiring. I'm overwhelmed. I'm so happy. It's really inspiring. Guys, please people, listen to that. Fancy things to take away from that. Follow your heart.

Be true to yourself. And that age is just a number. And a problem shared is a problem halved, like we always say. Damn straight. Because you speaking to your friends and family and you saying it out loud has just been like,

oh, you know what? Actually, that doesn't feel as overwhelming now. And like, it's fine for me to do what I want. You're never alone. An amazing story as well that he like held a torch for her. I know, unbelievable. I fucking love that.
