Story 1... Bring over empty cup, ask for sugar, thank him, go home make the famous carrot cake, bring him cake as a thank you for the sugar. If after now 2 interactions, if you are still interested,, ask if he'd like to get a drink.
Yes!! I was thinking the same thing! Also the neighbor thing goes, you ask for a cup of sugar you don’t bring one over lol.
YESSSSSS !!!! this is how its done
Dad had it backwards,, so dad!
THIIIIISSSSSSS!!! PURE GOLD!!!
I really hope he has sugar lol
A “father knows something…not everything” would be so good lol
It is so cute and refreshing hearing about how Justin helped Morgy out with the podcast, inspired her, got the equipment. I listen to you guys 24/7 but it’s especially good for me when I’m getting hopeless about dating and healthy relationships❤ Love u Jerry, Morgan, Justin❤❤
You need a shirt that says let it happen organically
I would love some fuzzy father knows something socks! Love you guys! Keep up the good work. 👍
Buckle up socks could be fun!
Socks with Jerry quotes!!!
Story 3: fully agree with Morgan, also if OP gets involved during internship, her colleagues could get jealous and if she gets something they cannot get, it could be accounted by the relationship and make her look very unprofessional. Also if OP will have more internships at the same hospital but other departments, there could be rumors not in favor of a woman
I think socks 🧦 are a genius idea 💡 for a podcast centered around a Dad! It's funny bc it's a thing that Dad's get socks as gifts so it's kinda tongue in cheek 😅
Yeeeesss please, to the father knows something socks!!!
Story 2 : I really feel like he needs to take care of himself first and once he gets to a more stable place he can come back to you.
He won’t, he will more than likely find someone else or she will. I have seen this happen to other and I have been through it and heard about it this sort of same situation
Story 1: I like the cupcake idea. It’s a natural way to introduce yourself. After introducing yourself just casually ask if they would like to go get drinks sometime.
3:08 😂 fighting with the plant two seconds in 🤣
I want father knows something merch 😢
Story 5: I would question why the boyfriend doesn’t see how incredibly uncomfortable John is making the girlfriend. And if John is a “douche” yet they’re still such good friends I would question what else the boyfriend is overlooking and what else John says/said before the coming out stuff.
I agree, I would even say that this is sexual harresement...😡😡
Story 1: Just make a dessert or bring another small gift as a ‘welcome to the neighborhood’ for him & go from there.
I would 100% buy socks with Jerry's face on it
as someone who is literally in the same situation as story #2, You can accept that your person needs to be their own person, but for me, clinging onto the idea of coming back together would make it so hard! putting your life on hold for a maybe is just so stressful, live life and make it an opportunity for yourself, support each other and be the best you can be for each other while you figure out how to be the best you can be for yourselves, that's the priority. it might not be easy being friends with an ex you have love and care for but it doesn't need to be heartbreaking, when you're secure in the bond you have you can accept that the relationship is changing, not ending.
Used that carrot cake recipe to make a squash bread, absolutely amazing. Switch out the mashed carrots for either pumpkin or butternut squash and then the grated carrot with zucchini. Add a hint of clove and nutmeg. And some pumpkin seeds on top. 10/10
I approached my neighbor by introducing myself (we did have pets so we met outside with the dogs) then I gave him fresh farm eggs and it all started from there. Eventually we moved in with each and was in a relationship for 8 years. So go shoot your shot! You got this.
Story 4: I went through something very similar with my best friend 8 years ago. It was a bit awkward for a while but now I rarely even think about it. He’s now best friends with my me AND my husband and it’s better than I could have ever imagined. Give it 6 months and y’all will come back stronger than ever. Trust me ❤
Came from spotify to point out how Story 3 is lowkey giving McDreamy and Meredith Grey
Socks with seat belts on it cause Jerry loves to buckle in when he's knows he's in for a ride on a story!
Thank you for the video! always love listening along to get me through my day
RE: story # 2
I’ve just gone through something very, very similar. I’ve been with my husband for 16 years (married for 9). He recently had a spell of what I could only say was a midlife crisis. He wanted spaces. Assumed I was the problem. Well, I gave it to him. Turns out in that space he learned his problems were about him and not about me and asked me to come back and forgive him. Said he’d do anything. I made my own decisions. Had my own discussions with him.
Then out of left field my mother calls me to tell me that she doesn’t think she can ever go to our house or be around bike because of “what he’s done to me”, etc. I was ✨so✨ frustrated. She made me feel like she didn’t think I was a strong enough woman to make my own decisions. That I was this wounded animal so. But I’m not. It was insulting. She has created this victim narrative for me that wasn’t at all what the situation actually was. She inserted herself where she didn’t need to me.
I had to sit her down and talk about boundaries. It was not a pleasant conversation and she still doesn’t agree with me but I needed to stand my ground. I now don’t include her in personal updates for this reason.
Nightshift here ayeeeeeeee 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I was on the same wavelength as Morgan all through this episode 😊
Yaaaay, just what I needed for the morning drive to work :)
story one: go ask him if you can borrow some eggs!
Can we get socks with dad’s face on it saying father knows best! ❤❤❤ 😊
I don’t know “Beat” , I only know something! LOL
I almost hope the person in the first story brings their neighbor a cup of sugar as an excuse to talk to him. It could be a funny meet-cute story. Or it could be the reason he now refers to you as the weird neighbor who gifts baking ingredients.
For story 4: dating is how u find out what u want and need in a person and also realizing no one is perfect and then deciding what you are willing to accept and not tolerate with your forever person. You have to date many people to come across many traits to determine this. U can’t be so delicate that each time u date and that person is t the one y give up on love and close off. Realize ur not always going to be that person’s forever person while they search for theirs and not take it so personal. U may have been close to their person but just not marking the specific boxes. And u may not be at all what they want or need but that doesn’t mean there is something wrong with u. We are all unique and so we all have our unique needs and wants and tolerances for someone’s imperfections. Keep searching and be open because closing off only draws in someone who isn’t searching for their right person but compromising to just have someone which won’t work out in the end.
Story 5: I wonder if ur bf was worried his friend would be homophobic because he put off that vibe cuz he wondered if he was into guys as well. Or maybe always had a thing for ur bf but did t think ur bf would be into it and thus ruin the friendship and out him for liking men and maybe wasn’t sure it was sure and not ready to try it or out himself. He may have always wanted ur bf and now knowing he’s bi but with u see this as his o Lu opportunity because he may fear he’s with u for the long run and maybe with a 3some it will show ur bf they were meant to be together.
I can relate to Story 4 so much im literally going through the same thing right now.
Just wanna say I appreciated the passover joke in the beginning 😂
I need FKS merch that says “organically” or “organic” and also “elegance”
It’s 4am and episode just dropped
Couldn’t be nothing but the Good God 0:12
holly patterned socks
patterned socks statement "with elegance or with grace"
Well.....the holidays are approaching, depending on how many people are in the building, what about having a "small holiday gathering.?" That way you're not super obvious (if you're trying to ease into it more discretely). Also, this would be a good way to find out if he's a total douche canoe...especially if there's alcohol involved. 🤷♀️
It will give you the chance to spend time with him, get to know him and then decide if you want to move forward. And if you do want to move forward, you'll have a better idea of how to approach it. And maybe a better chance of having your happily ever after.
Morgan is always really bothered by age gaps and power imbalances. i know she has OP’s best interest in mind and know things could go south, but wish we could focus more on who they are. not saying it isn’t taboo, but could end well too. OP didn’t discuss who he is as a person much and wish she had. but, as someone who started dating a manager and with quite an age gap, years later and engaged and i truly couldn’t ask for a happier or more flourishing, equal partnership. not one size fits all! i still all in all agree with Morgan. wait till the internship is over, see where it goes
It looks inorganic is what it comes down to for a lot of ppl. I side eye nurses who try to date doctors. Like watched Snapped for 20 seconds and it’s all about money for the less successful person and sex for the more successful. Congrats yours turned out well though 💗
@@Amandapuhlease i could understand that for sure! thank you for the example. i would agree the profession plays a large part in the potential intent. in my case, i was a server and he was a manager, and i left once we started openly dating, as it wasn’t allowed, so quite different
i’ve thought the same for a while honestly it’s like as soon as people hear an age gap it’s immediately predatory and such and that’s all people will focus on instead of the actual problem they’re asking for advice on.. i agree overall as well but sometimes the question doesn’t get answered :/
Organically. Good idea for a t-shirt imo...
Story 2: You’re parents are right. I know you don’t want to accept it but he’s not ready to commit. He’s over 30 and still lost. He needs to get his crap together and decide what he wants and who he wants.
I definitely want a father knows something tee. It should read: Jerry father to all foe to none
Love it!
Jerry clearly has never heard of the dogfree subreddit
The intern story...I wonder if they'd be interested about op when the internship ends...
How to visit patreon? I'm sorry if the spelling is wrong. Thank you 😅❤
♥️♥️♥️♥️
DOG JACKETS
❤
Socks with someone buckled up!
story 3 is giving greys anatomy
Story 5: Boyfriend and his best friend are definitely not respecting you. It is time you respect yourself enough to leave these people behind. You deserve better than you are being treated.
story 4: as a very bisexual woman in a very happy hetero monogamous relationship being bisexual is NOT AN EXCUSE to be shitty, cheat, or make your partner feel inferior
it makes us all look bad, its just a shitty person finding any other reason to not be at fault.
I’m also a bi woman in a straight marriage, and I don’t think the guy in the story 4 did anything wrong. He got in, got serious, realized he’s not ready to settle down, was honest about his feelings. Story 5 tho wtf. I can’t imagine letting my friend make my husband feel like shit just because “oh she’s validating my sexuality.” That’s gross behavior. The boyfriend needs to step up. He doesn’t need anyone to make nasty jokes to validate his coming out.
IM EARLY????
#1: the advice yall givin is BAD....how u know he isnt gay..or has a woman...lol honestly id go outside and try to catch his attention say hi....casually. Also maybe talk first cause you might see hes hot but no spark.
