S4 Ep 95Ask Uncut - What's the Price of Love?

Hey Lifers!What's the price of potential love for you? Shall we say $500 per month? Because that's what Tinder is proposing! We run through the ins and outs of paying for dating apps and how much our attitude has shifted over the years with subscription based dating apps. Vibes for the week:Britt: Sex education season 3 on Netflix Laura: Apps - Keeper password manager Keeshia: Copper tongue cleaner Then we get into your questions! I've been with my husband for 6 years and we have 2 kids together. He didn't know that our family iPad synced up with his phone. On the iPad, there are phone numbers of sex workers that have been blocked. I can see that he has also been messaging sex workers on OnlyFans and offering them thousands of dollars for certain things. I contacted one of them and she confirmed that they had had facetimes, but never met up in person. I feel lost about what to do and how to go about this. Please help. I run my own business and almost lost it after the damage from a bad ex. Years and years on I’ve found this beautiful man and we have decided to move in together. My concern is that my business now earns 6 figures after YEARS of working 6-7 days a week… Do I need a prenup? I am nervous it will damage our relationship but I know logically I need to protect my business and my new property. Emotionally I am scared I will lose him and do damage even by asking or showing the papers My partner always wants to grocery shop together, I would prefer to do it solo and alternate weeks (more efficient). What do I do with that? Please note that we do not have kids so it's not like we're too time-poor to do it together. He views it as wanting to spend more quality time together, I see it as a waste of time 😆 how do you compromise on something silly like this??? Is it okay to tell people to be quiet when having sex because you can hear them?? Specifically my sister and her girlfriend. My sister lives with me and her girlfriend is SO LOUD when they are intimate. It’s driving me nuts. I read at night and the moans I hear disturb my peace 🤣 do I let it be? Do I say something? And to who, my sister, or her girlfriend?

S4 Ep 93ASK UNCUT - How much eye contact during s*x is too much?

Hey Lifers, If you're looking for some travel tips, DO NOT go to Brittany Hockley. This one should be a sweet reminder that if it seems too good to be true, it probably is...Yes, she did recommend a 'points' app a few weeks ago and it would seem like she might need to refresh it! GET TICKETS TO OUR LIVE SHOW HERE In today's episode we announced that the wonderful Rebel Wilson will be joining our show in Sydney, Ellidy Pullin and Em Carey are going to join our Gold Coast show and the other shows will be announced soon! Vibes for the week:Britt: The Trial of Lucy Letby Laura: Jessie Stephen's latest book Something Bad Is Going To Happen Keeshia: Skincare School Then we get into your questions! I’ve been in a relationship and living with my partner for about 3.5years now. When it comes time to have any deeper conversations he consistently shuts down, whether this be about our relationship or discussing deeper topics of interest like politics, unpacking childhoods, relationships with parents, misogyny, the patriarchy, racism, religion etc. He will always listen and he is happy for me to say what’s on my mind however he never knows how to respond or how to add to the conversation other than to say nothing or make a senseless immature joke. I really struggle in these moments as it makes me feel really alone. Like I am giving a lecture to someone or having a conversation with myself. I don’t know what is the “normal,” amount of “deeper” conversation that most men typically engage in and for how long, or for how often? I am at a bit of a loss as to what to do, or if I am being unreasonable in asking for too much? Eyes closed or eyes open during sex? My partner will wake up first thing in the morning and check his phone in bed while he’s next to me and reply to work emails and messages he’s missed overnight. Whereas I’m the type of person who likes to wake up and not go on my phone straight away. He will also often talk to me while on his phone and therefore not fully hear what I’m telling him. It really irks me as I like to have more boundaries around technology. I know I can’t and shouldn’t tell him what to do but I’m also struggling on my end because of it. What can I do? We had a really great conversation with Johann Hari about how we can be so distracted by technology that you can listen to!

Previously we spoke about micro marriages and with Olivia Rogers about her divorce.We unpack whether young divorce needs a rebrand and whether Em Rata is a bit too privileged to label it as "chic."

S4 Ep 90ASK UNCUT - A guide to flirting

Hey Lifers, If you're looking for the link to vote for the Australian podcast awards LOOK NO FURTHER! (Click this link) Welcome to flirt school. Here you'll learn what to do, and quite likely exactly what not to do. How much is too much eye contact? Have you tried breaking that eye contact and taking your gaze to a forehead? We unpack... Things start off today with some plant talk and it's no stretch to say that Laura is not quite on the path to being a green thumbed goddess. Hopefully the plants can be rescued from the compost. Vibes/unsubscribes for the week: Britt - Halty style of dog leadLaura - Netflix Live to 100. Secrets of Blue ZonesKeeshia - Unsubscribing from people using descriptive words in second hand adsBen - Mark Manson documentary on Apple TV Then we jump into your deep, dark and dirty questions: I’m currently on maternity leave so I’m home a lot. We have a security camera at our front door that my fiancé and I get notifications for when someone’s there. However my fiancé is obsessed with looking at it every time it goes off, literally EVERY time.. so it feels like I’m sort of being watched with whatever I do.I made a comment a while ago that it makes me feel a bit weird and it’s giving controlling vibes and he was apologetic and said it was absolutely not his intention, he said he will stop looking at it, and he stopped commenting on every time a notification went off. But now he’s doing it again. Is this normal?! Last night at dinner my partner told me he had masturbated the night before as he was in the mood but I had fallen asleep. He always watches porn if he’s going to masturbate- which I’m totally fine with. However, my question is: is it weird for your partner to masterbate while watching porn, when I’m in bed next to him sleeping?? I find it a little strange and weird knowing he was getting off to some porn while I was right there next to him. Not because it wasn’t me he was getting off to, just the fact he had to do it while I’m there sleeping. One of my absolute pet peeves is not receiving a thank you for my generosity. I’ve given them gifts, home cooked meals and heartfelt cards. I’ve previously travelled interstate for a wedding and contributed to the wishing well. Some of them I don’t even receive a thank you from unless I bring it up.Am I being unreasonable?

Hey lifers! You can cast your vote for the Australian podcast awards here! Laura's now a believer! She's experienced a bit of an out of body experience!

S4 Ep 87Ask Uncut - Can you expect monogamy if you no longer want sex with your partner?

Hey Lifers! There's a lot going on today: ringworm, TV free lives, and pre peacocking. Big question for ya, if you are in a long term relationship and you stop wanting to have sex (for any reasons), can you/should you 'allow' your partner to fulfil their sexual desires somewhere else? There are so many factors that come into play with this question, and we unpack the grey areas. Vibes for the week:Laura: Errr not having a TVBritt: Cruel Summer on Prime videoKeeshia: Only murders in the building on Disney+ Then we jump into your questions: Should I feel guilty about having a sex dream about one of my boyfriend’s single friends? This is maybe the second time I’ve ever had a sex dream and I woke up very horny. My partner and I have been together for 8 years. Within the next few months he is going to receive a portion of his inheritance from the sale of the family business. It is a huge amount (8 figures). He sat me down last night and explained to me that (his exact words) he did not trust me with his money and he wants me to sign a prenup/binding financial agreement before he receives it. I'm really hurt by the way he has raised this issue. Am I right to feel upset or am I overreacting? I separated from my husband of 12 years about 2 years ago, it was a defence family so I spent a lot of my marriage alone looking after our 2 young kids whilst he was away and feeling very alone, unsupported and unimportant compared to his work. I became very depressed. I have recently started dating someone & he is a widow. His girlfriend passed away 3 years ago with cancer. He has had flings but nothing more since. Now after we spend time together he feels guilty and depressed because of his grief. I understand this is very normal. My question is… do I persist or will I be 2nd to something else again? This sounds wrong but I suffered years of never feeling like I was the priority.

S4 Ep 84Ask Uncut - Crazy Hormones, Salmon Sperm Facials and Story Stalking

Hey lifers! First up, TICKETS TO THE LIVE SHOW HERE! Little update on Britt's fertility and where her (small) eggs are at! We unpack the weirdest beauty treatments including salmon sperm facials...We also talk about how it's refreshing to see people like Julia Morris being open with the cosmetic procedures they elect to have.Our vibes for the week:Britt: Point hacks au on instagramLaura: Painkiller on Netflix (and also Dope sick on Disney plus)Keeshia: Denton Ultime Pillow Then we jump into your questions: My ex and I have been broken up since march. He wanted to get back together, I didn't and so he blocked me on social media. I’ve found out that he has a new girlfriend of 2 months. A week ago unblocked me and started viewing all my stories. He doesn’t follow me so he has been intentionally looking me up and stalking me. I know I shouldn’t care but what the hell? I still have feelings but also know I don’t want to go there again and wouldn’t because he has a girlfriend. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN ? Should you uninvite a friend from your birthday party if they don’t even text you on your birthday? Context, I’m having a limited seating birthday lunch and had to be tight with the number of people I invited. When I put the invite out a few weeks ago, she responded saying that she would like to come but wanted to bring her partner as well. I said yes, and allocated 2 of the limited seats to them. My party is coming up now, as I had my birthday last week but the thing is, I haven’t heard from her in weeks. I didn’t hear from her on my birthday and not since. I feel annoyed that I gave up 2 spots for them and feel like I want to tell them that they can’t come. Is it crazy to message the family, mum in particular, of a guy who has ghosted you? We dated for a year, but we were long-distance. I was supposed to see him in 2 weeks for the first time this year but now he's ghosted me. He said he's super overwhelmed with work and it takes a toll on him but he loves me so much. Never did he ever say that we had ended, he simply has ghosted me. I can see that he's following a couple new girls on instagram, so clearly he has time on his hands. I want him to know that no one deserves this and he can't get away with treating people like this but he won't respond to my messages. I'm not going to keep pushing him but I want his family to know how he's treated me. I know it's a bit crazy, but I want to know whether it is completely unacceptable or not?

S4 Ep 83Not everything happens for a reason. Grief and life after loss with Lotte Bowser

Hey Lifers! It's Britt and Keeshia's birthday! The conversation around milestone anxiety (especially because one of them is turning the big 3-0) rears it's head again. Laura & Producer Keeshia unpack whether Keeshia's joy around her birthday this year is linked to being in a relationship & what it means we need to be doing for our single friends on their birthdays! There's a new study that has shown that (in hetero relationships) men are more commonly the first to say "I love you." A particularly interesting part of the study showed that it usually takes 69 days for them to say it... we're not the ones crunching the numbers here.Then we get into a truly great interview with Lotte Bowser. Lotte Bowser is a writer and podcaster. It was a modern day romance where two people both swiped right and fell in love almost instantly. They moved in together, they travelled together, they got engaged and then in 2019 Ben was diagnosed with terminal cancer. In late 2020, Ben died and Lotte had to 'say goodbye' from a hazmat suit. Lotte has had to learn how to navigate life as a young widow and how to move forward with her life. In this chat we speak about:-The stages of grief are bullshit-Grief can be so isolating and so lonely-How to support someone through the loss of someone, and also what not to do-Finding purpose and moving forward after someone you love has died Lotte has co-written a grief workbook called “Now, what?” with friend of the podcast and host of Darling Shine Ellidy Pullin and is currently writing a book of her own.

S4 Ep 81Ask Uncut - Misheard Lyrics, Catching Yawns & Do You Need Marriage to Solidify the Commitment?

Hey Lifers! Welcome to your therapy Thursday! This episode is not brought to you tourism Magnetic Island, but it would be understandable if you were mistaken. Happy 70th birthday to Laura's dad and big shout out to all of the koala's. Today we lost it laughing hearing all of your misheard lyrics! We officially feel better about the silly lyrical mistakes we make! Vibes for the week: Keeshia - Sleep! Sleep tracking, rain sounds (rain, rain and myNoise are good) and this episode of a podcast with Dr Matt Walker on the Diary of a CEO Britt: Chrome coloured nails Laura: the Life Uncut live show! Then we jump into your questions: My partner doesn’t yawn at the same time as me. He doesn’t “catch” my yawns. Does that mean he isn’t emotionally connected to me? My bf and I have been together 5 years, lived together for 2, bought our dog a year ago. We both see our future together and always talk about it. I feel really strongly about getting engaged and have been pretty clear about it but it is not on his mind. He always says things like "what's the rush" and "we have everything we need" and I think he genuinely believes and means that. He says he doesn't "feel ready" and that it's not me it's him. His parents are divorced, so are his grandparents, uncle, Auntie, sister's husband. The family is full of divorce. I am from a family where there has been no divorce. I think we see marriage and engagement very differently because of this. It has created some tense conversations and we both understand how each other feel but neither of us will budge. Am I being stupid getting so worked up over a ring when everything else is great? My best friend has always struggled with not feeling good enough for the men she dates. She has had a few situationships but last year she got into her first official relationship. I really don’t like her boyfriend but I haven’t said anything. However, over this past year I’ve heard him make comments about her weight. She has also lost A LOT of weight since being with him. Last night we went out for dinner and he made comments like ‘you should work out more’ ‘when we get done with dinner you should jog back to the car’ and ‘are you finishing all of that?’. I’m worried about what his comments are doing to her mentally. How do I talk to her about this?

Hey Lifers! Producer Keeshia is filling in for Britt today and she would love your thoughts on whether or not saying "I love you" for the first time needs to be a special moment or not? We unpack the 'rules' of who can and can't be cancelled, why that is and whether there's a set of standards for some, and a different set for others. Vibes for this week:Keeshia: Ultraviolet queen screen SPF 50+ & podcast The Money Expert: "Do Not Buy A House!"... The 10 Ways To Make REAL Money! Ramit Sethi Laura: Dry brushing your body Then we jump into your questions: My uncle who I love has written a self published book, which is amazing. The problem? I hate it and would say it’s potentially one of the worst books I have ever read. The female characters in particular are very one dimensional and are written as perfect wives or sex objects and nothing in between. He is over the moon and keeps pushing me to promote it in the many writing forums I am a member of. He has now asked me five times if I could write a review on a very public and prolific online book club to help promote it - what do I do? Can you tell someone if you don't like the present they got you? I met a guy on Hinge and to begin with things were really great. We 'made it official' at the 3 month mark, I'd met his friends etc. Not long after this he broke up with me via text while I was away for work. Fast forward to May, he apologised, said he knew what he did was wrong he still didn’t know why he did it but he wanted a second chance. We began spending time together, taking things very slow just dinners and a couple of dates. We start sleeping together again and he tells me how happy he is. He then goes on a work trip and has since ghosted me. What the hell happened! What should I do? I haven’t heard from him for 2 weeks.

Hey Lifers! First up today, we unpack all of the terms that you hate, and, ahhh we might need to amend our vocabulary! There's also a woman who fell in love with the man who robbed her (yep, we checked. The article isn't satire). Vibes for this week:Laura: The Deepest Breath on Netflix Britt: We the Wild Plant Care Keeshia: To end all war: Oppenheimer & the atomic bomb on Binge Joining the podcast for a special edition of Ask Uncut is sex and relationships educator, social worker, Agony Aunt, author and podcaster Lalala Let Me Explain! Lala is a top secret squirrel and remains completely anonymous online, but unpacking dilemmas and giving top shelf advice is what she does best! Today we jump into these questions: How do you gain confidence with men in public and approach them if you wanna shoot a shot? My boyfriend who I lived with for a year just ended things. I’m currently sharing a bed with my mum, all my belongings are in my car while I wait for my childhood bedroom to be cleared out for me to move back in. I'm also having to find a new job. I genuinely feel so dependent on him like I don’t know who I am anymore without him. How do I get back on track? How important is it for your partner to get along with your friends? Everything else in our relationship is great, my problem is that he doesn't like my friends and becomes closed off and quiet around them. He says they're 'weird' and he is quite judgemental of them. How big of a red flag is this when everything else is so great?

S4 Ep 73Ask Uncut - Life is Short, Have an Affair

Hey Lifers! First up today we unpack the Ashley Madison Affair doco (on Disney Plus). We were glued to our screens and it brought up a lot of questions within the team! Questions about infidelity and consent, what's worse; cheating or leaking everyone's data? Did this website 'save' relationships? We unpack. Vibes for the week:Laura: Esther Perel's podcast episode Donor DaddyBritt: "Hijack" on Apple TVKeeshia: Grace Beverley's podcast episode with Caroline Calloway Then we jump into your questions: I have just found out I’m pregnant. I have been sleeping with the same two guys for months now and it could be either one of them as the father, as I slept with them both 2 days apart and I conceived somewhere in there. Other than being super confused about what to do with the pregnancy, I am also confused about what is best to do in regards to telling these guys. Should I tell them both? I met a guy at a work conference, had a hot fling and he's gone back to London. We are planning on meeting up in Bali soon! He's just told me that he lives with his ex (they broke up last year). She was meant to move out but hasn't. The long distance thing is something I can handle, but am I being unreasonable to tell him that now he really has to stop living with her if he actually wants to be with me even though I’m on the other side of the world? I met a guy on tinder 7 weeks ago. Initially we both said that we were just wanting to spend time with, hangout, have fun and get to know before getting into anything serious. We've now been on a weekend away together but haven't slept together. I've just found out that he's still matching with and dating other people. We are still going on dates and kissing/holding hands. Should I keep seeing him or end it? Link to Matthew Hussey's episode that is mentioned in the episode is here!

S4 Ep 63Ask Uncut - Is it an ick, or is it your unconscious bias?

Hey Lifers, Laura should be on her honey moon and Producer Keeshia is in the hot seat today! First up, we unpack Lewis Capaldi's performance at Glastonbury. A moment of kindness from the crowd. A huge step in the right direction of visibility of disability. But is some of the commentary around what happened patronising? We discuss. Vibes and unsubscribes for the week: Vibe- (courtesy of Jo from Beauty IQ). When you're going on a flight with someone else, pack a change of clothes in each other's bag incase your bag gets lost on the way. At least then you've got a change of clothes. Unsubscribe- apple air tags are too expensive for the basic device that they are and you absolutely should not be strapping them to your kid Then we unpack your questions. If a relationship cannot survive a 6 month stint of long distance, is it the right relationship at all? Should I be concerned if my new partner tells me he experimented with his sexuality when he was younger but claims he has sorted it out and is now into women? Note: I am not attracted to bisexual people and it puts me off a bit. Is it weird to want to organise your own hens? I have bridesmaids, who I love and can’t wait to do all the wedding things together and party, but I also want to be in control of what we do. Am I a control freak or is it ok to do my own?

S4 Ep 60Ask Uncut - Laura's unhinged and Britt's a unicorn psychopath

Hey lifers, Laura's unhinged (again) and Britt might need to unpack why she finds enjoyment in true crime because there's a psychologist who says that's kinda weird. Do you relax by watching true crime? Our vibes and unsubscribes for the week: Britt - Netflix's 'Arnold' Laura - Influencers who ask if their followers want to see holiday content Your ask uncuts that we unpack this week: After a night out myself, my boyfriend of 1.5 years and one of my best girl friends (who is gay) went home together and one thing led to another and we ended up having a threesome. We had never spoken about the possibility of doing this and it’s the first time it’s happened. Since it’s happened I can’t stop picturing my boyfriend having sex with my best friend as I just laid there next to them, and I feel sick. Since my best friend is gay I feel like it meant nothing to her, but he is straight and chose to have penetrative and oral sex with her. Is this something I should be concerned about? Can we move on from this? I’ve tried to talk to him about it but he’s not overly fussed about the situation and is kind of de-validating my concerns (ie saying “we’ll you were involved just as much as me”) My best friend recently matched on Bumble with a guy from America. Although he is currently living in America, they matched because he had his status set to traveling in preparation for an upcoming trip to Aus. Over the last few weeks they’ve been texting, calling and FaceTiming every day and are totally smitten. They’ve even been discussing wedding plans for this summer and choosing baby names. They’ve also talked about her moving there because he said with his job he would have to start from square one if he moved here. She said she knows it all seems crazy but she’s sure he is her penguin and that she’s never felt like this before and neither has he. He’s coming here at the end of next month and I’m just so skeptical!! Am I right to feel that way? Or should I just be supportive of her happiness? She’s just come out of a tumultuous couple of years in her personal life so I feel super protective of her. HELP! Do you flush the toilet at night time if your partner or housemate or family are asleep? What’s the etiquette? A friend of mine got married a few months ago and then asked a group of friends to plan the hens. The wedding was really small and the kicker was that none of the friends who were asked to plan the hens were invited. We all find it a bit weird that we've been asked to plan the 'fling after the ring' despite not being invited to the wedding If you have a question, or an ask uncut aftermath, send it in to our InstagramYou can join the facebook group here and follow us on tiktokTell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because we love love! xx See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

S4 Ep 57Ask Uncut - Can I post your baby?

Hi Lifers, Welcome back to another Therapy Thursday where we answer your deep, dark and burning questions. On today's episode we have some goodies! Should you always ask the parent before sharing a photo of their child on social media? I'm a new parent and I've had some ask and others not. It makes me feel frustrated that they don't ask/have the etiquette to ask me first. Am I stingy? A couple friend of ours invited my partner and I over for dinner. We have hosted them a few times. I asked "is there anything you'd like us to bring?" to which they responded "No, that's okay. We can add up how much it all costs and let you know how much to transfer." After dinner they asked me to transfer $15. It's left a weird taste in my mouth. Is it normal to ask your dinner guests to transfer you money for dinner? My partner and I have been together for 10 months and we live together, but he doesn't want our relationship on social media. He is okay with me posting things of him, but he doesn't post anything of me. Am I silly for caring about this or do you think it's an issue?

Hey Lifers! Britt's boyfriend Ben is here and making his life uncut debut! Hope you enjoy the sultry tones of our Swiss sensation! First up Britt and Ben share how they met and are making their long distance relationship work! Vibes for the week:Laura: Natural deodorant "no pong"Britt: Bicarb soda and vinegar to flush out your dishwasher and washing machine Then we jump into your questions: When flying (usually for work, like a 1 hour trip), I usually chat to the person/stranger seated next to me on the plane. Like conversation the whole way. I was just in Sydney this week for work, and colleagues commented that this is weird and I should just go to sleep or put headphones on. Am I a weirdo for having a chat? I have been with my partner for over 2 years. We had a difficult relationship from the start, and we had so many conflicts. Lately, the conflicts have been really bad and he has told me things like "I don't love you anymore" - "I am not attracted to you" and so many other small things (you are too emotional, too sensitive, you talk too much etc" - but when I asked him the question "why don't you break up with me then!" - he says, it does not feel right. We had so many break up chats, but neither of us could do it. Is it normal to have these types of conflicts? And if not.. Why is he not breaking up with me if I am such a burden? Do you think it is unreasonable to be told what to wear to hens? I understand having a theme but on top of paying for accommodation, activities and drinks I now have to buy an outfit that I will likely never wear again to fit a specific theme.

S4 Ep 52Ask Uncut - He's in a sexless marriage, can I be his side piece?

Hey Lifers, Britt's stuck her foot in it (unexpected) and our favourite Laura is back!! First up today, a queer bar on Oxford St has had enough of the hens and bucks parties! Our friend Xander joins us to chat about his experiences in gay bars and the reasons behind why this decision has been made! Vibes for the week: Laura - Triangle of Sadness movie on Amazon Prime Britt - Iced coffee cubes Questions for today: I met a guy on an app and he is seeking one person to have FWB. He is in a sexless marriage, and not wanting to leave his wife. Personally, I am fine with what he wants as that suits what I’m looking for, and it’s his decision if he is choosing to cheat. I have not actively gone after him. I know it’s wrong but I’m so over doing what is right for everyone else when I just want to have some fun and I deserve that. I have been cheated on in the past and it is horrible. But if it’s not me he will still do this with someone else. My question/worry is that if I meet someone down the track, do you think this would be something they would judge me for given the situation? Does this make me a bad person? I’ve been with my partner for 2 years now and he has a child with his ex partner. He has baby bump pictures of his ex in his phone, some of which she is completely naked in. Am I being a complete psychopath and jealous because I want a baby with him but he isn’t ready so him having these photos makes me super sad and I feel like this is such a horrible thing for me to feel. Is this ok? My partner and I have been together for 6 years and lived together for 4. My ideal bed time is 10pm however my partners isn’t until 11pm. I like to go to bed at the same time as I tend to sleep better and don’t get interrupted when he gets in. It might seem comical but we are often arguing about bedtime! Is this an area of contention in other relationships? How do you suggest we manage this? Presume other couples like to go to bed at different times so there must be a solution here!

S4 Ep 49Ask Uncut - Sis, is this your man?

Hey Lifers, Britt is teaming up with Producer Keeshia today while Laura keeps her step-ball-changes on point! Firstly, how do you feel about the Facebook groups that are designed to reference check your possible dates? Do you think it's helping the sisterhood or is it more problematic and a chance for revenge? Britt is feeling very defensive about her home styling. 3 professional photoshoot framed pics of Britt and Ben; is it a shrine or is it play on? Vibes for this week: Britt The Oodie Keeshia Bioderma shower oil Then we jump into your questions: Do you think the guy should make a booking at a restaurant if he asked you out? I had a first date on Friday night and the restaurant was packed and there was a one hour wait because my date didn't think ahead to book when he had picked the restaurant and asked me out 🙃 I got the ick really bad after that as we had to walk around trying to find an empty restaurant to go to. Do I have a right to be upset if my best friends forget my birthday? I always know their birthdays by heart but without Facebook reminders or me making note of it on my social media, my birthday will pass without any thought on their part. It feels hurtful and I feel forgettable My partner is about to propose & whenever he brings it up, he says, "I’ve planned the perfect moment, but just warning you, don’t have high expectations for the ring." My dream ring is $10k, which I understand is a lot of money, but he also has a decent job and about $100k sitting in savings, buthe ‘doesn’t think it’s about the ring.’ To me, it’s such a special and important symbol of our union and something I want to keep forever! I feel horrible saying this, but I’d rather he never propose than propose without a ring I love.
