I love Barbara’s outfit in this one, coming from someone who has never worn a dress, her jacket/dress combo looks so cozy.
ok we neeeed more episodes like this. Great questions and Blizz and Jessica were great. Everyone let everyone speak and had great perspectives. Barbara did an amazing job at hosting too!
Regarding that last question (and as a therapist myself) you are giving great advice in terms of communication, especially on not bottling things up! Taking ownership of mistakes and messing up is very important (and I hope Barbara finds a therapist that clicks with her soon!).
Thank you for openly talking about your therapy experiences!!
Congrats to Jessica “I am Wide Open” Vasami!
That opening story I can kind of relate to. Both my parents were divorced and pretty much hated each other when they passed away. But both my older sisters are in wonderful happy marriages. When my husband proposed to me I remember quoting Queen "is this real life or is this a fantasy?" In my head. But I've never been happier. We've been married 5 years now and I don't regret anything.
My husband is 100% bisexual. He's romantically and physically attracted to both men and women, but he didn't full realize or understand that part of himself til he met me.
44:10 OMG please please please learn to be OK when you're wrong, not just in relationships but literally with everything else in life. overcome your confirmation bias!
I love that these episodes feel like best friend group therapy
I'm getting married on-paper {we already consider ourselves married} because there's powers of attorney and such that full-married ppl have that common-law can't.
13:09 I LOVE THIS ANSWER SO MUCH. You’re so spot on
Absolutely loved this episode and all the insight it provided!!! Hope to see blizz as a guest again!!
"I wish Mariel was here"
Me too...
Me too
Guys, hearing that I’m less then 7 years older then you and all three of you have found your person is an encouragement to me. I’m currently looking for someone after my ex and I separated about five years ago; after being married for 11 years. It’s hard sometimes being alone. In reference to the second question; there’s a third possibility that extreme stress or anxiety could be a issue. On that though I have done this. I have had to talk about financial things when anxiety is involved. My ex and I still split things and help each other as much as we can. I had to tell her recently that helping cover something is going to be difficult due to hours being cut at work during a time that they normally aren’t. I am working on other options but they will take time to get that situated. So not sure what we are going to do yet, but we are still discussing things. Communication is a big key.
This was a very informative episode with some really introspective questions and amazing advice from all 3 people. It was great hearing Jessica Vasami again and I enjoyed Blizb3ears appearance as well as Barbara's calming and approachable manner in advice and answering those 3 questions. Hopefully they will come back later on and give even more thoughtful and invoking words of advice and consideration. Good episode all around!!!!!
I will forever have the biggest crush on Jessica. That is all I have to say
I can definitely relate to being a content creator and being a little iffy on being up front with my girlfriend about my income when it's low.
Sponsors can be wonky with payout and sometimes I have unexpected expenses that can make the coffers lower than usual. Like if she asked, I'd be honest, but when I'm dipping into savings, I keep that to myself. That absolutely will change when we move in together and we start to make financial decisions that affect us both, but for now, my money is mine and I don't want to worry her since I always manage to take care of myself.
I’m so happy the show is back. congratulations on the launch and I can’t wait to tune in every ep 🧡
I really like this podcast !
That hidden job loss one is the backstory of like, 80% of family annihilators, this guy just seems less egomaniacal...
I see anything w Jessica and I click instantly!
Definitely so happy to have this show back!
Sad that Jessica won't be a permanent host, but happy that this frees up space for more fun individuals like her to come on the show!
I've never questioned myself but I'm always interested to hear bout other people's experiences. Also dude lies to his wife twice about the same things and has to even ask if he's the a-hole. Really?
I love this show because I learn A LOT :)
I love the new feel to Always Open 2.0
a lovely crew, three gems
Anybody else ever feel bad about changing the Likes from 69 to 70? Lol
It always feels a little bittersweet lol
Love the podcast!
loving this episode, great to have it play in the background while finishing up some work. excited for the next one tomorrow :)
Ahhh this was such an enjoyable episode. Always love the open and honest discussions you have
When Barbara said, “do you love aviators” for the sponsorship i thought she was talking about aeroplane pilots because i’m an idiot
As another bisexual, why do we all also identify as queer?! I have seen so many bi people say they use both labels, myself included
One note, Judaism came before Christianity and had marriages. There were marriages in ancient Greece and Roman societies as well.
i don't wanna call the 2nd question person an a-hole, but that behavior was definitely not cool. hopefully they take the advice given to heart and can improve communication with their wife.
OH MY GOSH Oh My Gosh oh my gosh
We Stan Jessica!
I don't think the guy is the asshole but I do think he should've told her. I understand where this guy is coming from because when I've lost a job or couldn't get one I'd get treated like a failure which is probably something he experienced in the past, not necessarily wanting to be the man but not being able to help.
Where is Mr Texas?
they aren't drinking booze, so no need for a bartender
I'm so glad this show is back
I'm pansexual and for me that means that genitals and gender don't factor into who i engage with romantically and sexually. Also Blizz was spot on with the biromantic vs bisexual thing as i understand it. I believe it can be both or either, and to varying degrees!
First off, don't worry, I hate men as well being a man. Secondly, the guy is an asshole. You are in a marriage, and those are built in trust. You need to be upfront with your spouse and let them know what is going on financially.
Looking at it from the outside, I am in full agreement that the man should have been truthful with his wife about his job struggles. But I also understand the fear of the perceived disappointment from your partner if you suddenly can't meet the expectations that you set on yourself for the relationship, and wanting to fix it silently
The was the best episode yet.
YAY
can reddit men pls try and communicate with their wives for once
A man here, letting all the red faced fellas furiously slapping away at their keyboards know that if you get triggered when a woman says she hates men, you are the problem. Full stop.
Mankind knew they could not change society so instead of reflecting on themselves they blamed the beasts
