E445 Ask Nick - Dealing With Manchild Boyfriend
We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! Welcome listeners, and join us as we take your questions about the dating world and relationships. Our first caller feels like she has commitment issues until she starts having feelings for a guy she had a week long romance with. She asks if her insecurities are normal and how she should handle dating situations like this in the future. Our next caller has been happily with her boyfriend for eight years, but starts raising questions when she begins to realize that he may be a spoiled man child. With continual reminders that he does the bare minimum, our caller wonders if she should move away closer to her mom and reconnect with her. The last caller questions if she should be honest with her finance about how she feels staying at his grandparents' truly gross and disgusting house. She loves him and respects that they are his family but she just can't take how awful it is. Now she wonders how to save herself from disgust without breaking his heart.
"You had a week love affair."
