I bloody LOVE the judge for recognizing the manipulation that was being attempted by the guy. He was already her employer AND had given her money (both forms of control and leverage), and if she repaid the money, he'd lose the ability to hold it over her. Only when she really broke up with him did he decide to pretend it was a loan and try to get it back as a way to punish her.
She also answered all of his questions with no preambles, elaborations, or extra "flavor text" of any sort. I think that really helped her case as well.
Worked for a small business in the 90’s. The admin assistant was the boss’s girlfriend. She did absolutely nothing and was fired when they broke up. I used to joke that wether she was at the office or gone, her productivity was the same.
This is going on right now where I work. Got hired on the same time as another girl. Shes younger. HELLO, you don’t 💩 where you sleep! Very sad, but watching this play out. Sad bc she’s a single mom. When the “fling” is over, she’s jobless. smh!
Someone I knew when I was young did. They both listened to all the colleagues, the friends and the family members telling them both what a bad idea it was. They ignored everybody, dated intensely and married within 6 months of meeting. They're 70 and 80 now..... and still married
@@jenniferrandolph4115 That's a lot of trouble to go to, filling up a RB can with something else when could just put whatever it was into a mug... 😉 Anyway, it's the action of reaching for something and/or do something rather than showing you're listening that is the give away. An adult version of a kid putting their fingers in their ears and saying "la, la, la".
100 percent right what the judge ordered. Esp after she tried to give it back and he said no. Don't ever mix your work and relationships. When you're the owner of a business the worst thing u can do is get into a relationship with one of your employees. It just rarely works out for the best. And he sure did sound like he got off on having that control over her. If it was just about the money he would have let her pay him back the money when she offered to. It was never about that in my opinion. Great job judge!! As usual
In the beginning I was siding with the plaintiff because I had made an employee, (not in a relationship) a large loan that was never paid back. I am glad that Judge Middleton was thinking clearer than me.
Wow, I think Michael Mostrom might date younger women because he needs to be in control and the “smartest” in the relationship. 😉😉I love how he had to interject that he “spoke with her mother about the loan”, as if she is incapable of speaking for herself. Cuts his feed before the judge is finished and keeps making faces as the judge gives his opinion? Is it the receding hairline, overbearing mother, small “manhood”, or a combination of factors? We are SO ANXIOUS to know. 😂😂😂 Luckily, this type of “man” usually folds hard under any real authority and is very predictable. I typically find Judge Middleton way too lenient on criminal cases, but he was right on here, thank goodness.
Pro tip for people in the dating world: What he's doing is a way to be in control and abusive. He's using the money to manipulate her. Nothing generous about it. Be wary of people who "help you out" and play games like this later. Im so glad the judge saw through this. I'm sure he deals with this all the time.
4:35 "we had her put in as administrative assistent." That sure makes it sound like she was only an employee on paper, which supports her claim that it was understood he was giving her a gift.
Truth. It can be an awful form of abuse and control. When one has no options and the other has all of them, it’s never a fair or equitable relationship. The older one gets, the less options they feel that they have.
I decided, long before I married my first husband, that I would NEVER be in a vulnerable financial position. With my first husband, I was the main earner in the household. Because I had my own income, I was able to leave the marriage. I married my second husband a few years later and maintained my financial independence and still do. She seems like a nice gal. I hope she learned from this experience and, next time, finds a man who deserves her.
Yes! There was a Seinfeld episode where he hired a maid, who he then began banging, but still paying. The housework stopped happening, but not the bedroom activities
This is why I tell my friends never to travel with a guy who you are seeing without your own credit card, your own cash and your own plane ticket to return. If you can’t afford it yourself then just wait until you can. And if you think doing a kindness or favour should be repaid then its creating an extremely transactional relationship. Keep your own account and savings married or single.
Middleton is truly the coolest cucumber in the garden. 😂 he is smooth and yet those little bumps keep people in line. I just compared a judge to a cuke. Fantastic
Why do people feel the need to tell creators what to do with THEIR videos? If he began pausing too often, the no pause side will chime in. There's NO way to please everyone so, creators will do what they feel is best. LTWM has 241,000 subs... he must be doing things at least mostly right lol.
I seem to recall an episode of Seinfeld where Jerry hired a maid, then started sleeping with her while still paying her to clean. She stopped cleaning, but continued the bedroom activities and accepting the money. Makes things awkward!
Usually the women are the manipulative party in these cases and I thought this was going to be no different at first. Once I heard her say she had offered to pay him back and he refused then invited her to go on a business trip with him, I realized who was doing the manipulating here. Judge Middleton nailed it again!

She begins all her statements with "Your Honor.". So simple, yet so important.
She also answered all of his questions with no preambles, elaborations, or extra "flavor text" of any sort. I think that really helped her case as well.
He could have laid off the Red Bull, too. That said a lot, too. 😅😂
Judge Middleton seriously did NOT like that guy. And he saw right through him.
I'm so impressed with this judge for seeing the psychological power games in this case. Absolutely brilliant.
Mr. Business owner isn't used to not getting his way..... 😢😂
Love this judge. He has very high emotional IQ.
Worked for a small business in the 90’s. The admin assistant was the boss’s girlfriend. She did absolutely nothing and was fired when they broke up. I used to joke that wether she was at the office or gone, her productivity was the same.
That's why well-run companies have so many rules against employees dating one another.
Never. Ever. EVER. Date the boss. It's not going to turn out good for you.

@@maryholden3136 They are lucky! It normally never plays out that way. Just saying
@@maryholden3136 There are always exceptions to every rule. I'm happy for them ☺️
That beard was trying its hardest to give him a chin but to no avail.
😂😂😂
The entire video that’s all I’ve been able to see 😂😂😂
Hey now, I resemble that statement!
Every time the judge or the ex said something he didn't want to hear, he reached for the Red Bull.
An example of a coping mechanism for a narcissist.
Maybe Red Bull isn't in the container. 🤔

Judge Middleton has his number and its' a big fat zero!
Judge nailed the manipulation aspect.
This kind of small claims matter was the bread & butter for Judge Judy.
In the beginning I was siding with the plaintiff because I had made an employee, (not in a relationship) a large loan that was never paid back.
I am glad that Judge Middleton was thinking clearer than me.
12:00 She's got her facts ready, and seems more prepared. He seems like he's just trying to wing it, and doesn't have as good of a case.

I agree!
Manipulation is crystal clear in this case. Poor excuse of a man. Pathetic. Love ya Mike ❤️
$18. an hour for an office manager?!? Must not have been much of an office to manage. 😂. He's a sleaze.

Just another reason to love Judge Middleton.

Financial abuse is a thing ladies. Don’t ever not have your own.
Man, I am soooo happy I'm married to a wonderful man.

Oh I just Adore Judge Middleton …’You get nothing…’
Perfect!
And to drop in a Chillie there too 🤌🏼 beautiful
He just wants to be in control when it comes to this relationship. Uses this 'loan' whichever way makes him feel in charge at a particular moment.
Love Judge Middleton so wise, can see the truth of the matter ❤
He’s just being vindictive because he doesn’t like to lose
He wants her bad
Sux to be him
He's a manipulator. He may not have been violent but he was definitely abusive.
She’s in her early 20’s, he’s in his 40’s.
Exactly. May/December romances 😅😂
Funny how sometimes we can’t just write stuff off as a lesson learned. Must really be eating at this guy.
Am I the only one who was breathlessly awaiting the answer to "What was her POSITION?"
"Mostly cowgirl, Your Honor, occasional doggy..."
I thought I was the only one with a dirty mind
There is love in the air!!!
Paying a girlfriend moves her to a completely different category !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I was thinking the same thing
Yes! There was a Seinfeld episode where he hired a maid, who he then began banging, but still paying. The housework stopped happening, but not the bedroom activities
❤ I've been missing
The couples "luv songs " ...ltwm spoils Me. 😊 what about friends. 😂❤
Great job, judge! Judge saw what a manipulator he was.
This is one of the only times I've heard you not sound misogynistic. Thank you
Oh run along with the misogyny bs I call it as I see it always have it’s just that sometimes the woman is wrong.
Judge is down to earth! Love him!
Dear Mr. Mostrom, please see a barber as your beard trimming choices creates a “no chin” look straight on. Thank you in advance…😂😂😂
HAAAAAA! He gets ZERO!! He’s zero point zero!!!
Which is the same as my GPA, as it turns out
Why is he speaking to her mother? sounds like stalking tendencies
I find it fascinating that judge Middleton accused him of money laundering. Oh my.
mr bossman rage quit at the end without saying anything because the judge saw right through his control attempts, love it
This reminds me of a Judge Judy case... LOL!!! 🤪 Hope you're having great travels, Mike!!
He takes a drink every time that he gets called out. This dude is not cool
Your honor, I gave her the money so she won't have a " headache" every night. But then she never "returned the favor".
Never a wrong time to drop in a Chilli cry.

Good morning from Springfield MO, Mike!
Great analysis on a very sensitive case.
💯
"Oh, she did GREAT work!!" 😏
Mad because I missed the premiere. Stoked at the Love Boat 😆
Judge Middleton is no fool!
Dang, he told him off big time! Good for him.
What ? Judge Simpson drinks from a huge coffee mug !
Are you tring to tell me I cannot sue a girl into my heart?
Litigate your way to love
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Middleton is truly the coolest cucumber in the garden. 😂 he is smooth and yet those little bumps keep people in line. I just compared a judge to a cuke. Fantastic
He was trying to help her !!😂 His halo is choking him 👼…or maybe it is the Redbull that’s choking him 🥫🤢🤮
We know how that goes. . She just gets paid . 😂
He’s a scuzzball!
“What was her position?”
“Inappropriate question, your honor!”
Middleton is the GOAT
She's a looker.
The rules are more relaxed … sir put down the Red Bull 😂
She's way to pretty for him. She actually seems normal considering most of these video's.. lol. He seems heartbroken 💔.. haha
Going after ex-gf for $1000? Goofy look, dude.
oh Mike, Roll the starting logo over the oath. Very sophisticated. All grown up.
Crying chille never gets old
Oh no, he favours Law and Lumber, IMO 😊
I can't decide if cecilia looks more like Mandy Moore or Jamie Lynn Spears
Jamie Lynn Spears
Paying your girlfriend $18/hour is probably just one of the reasons she is now an ex-girlfriend.
She was only worth half of that.
Good one! 😂😂😂😂
What she probably has a bad gag reflux 😅
Good pay wish I was paid well for busting my ass.
Why she rock her head every time she answer. 😂😂😂😂 she got attitude🔥
When do we get to see you practicing? I'm assuming I missed it. Please point me to the video.
Happy, safe travels @ltwm
Hey all, Happy Tuesday from Boston
Back to the shows finally!
I was disturbed by Mikes instant woman-blaming during this video. Glad to see him back off of that. That guy seems like a creepy stalker.
Great decision, judge
Middleton 🙌
Good call Judge M
Her position was missionay😂😂😂😂😂
I had the exact same thought as soon as judge Middleton asked!!!
Buh dum ch! Lol with title of SEXretary...
😂😂😂😂
LoL "she did great work" yeah I'll bet she did
Please pause the video when you play your little memes, it’s hard to follow the case
Why do people feel the need to tell creators what to do with THEIR videos? If he began pausing too often, the no pause side will chime in. There's NO way to please everyone so, creators will do what they feel is best. LTWM has 241,000 subs... he must be doing things at least mostly right lol.
Happy Tuesday
I seem to recall an episode of Seinfeld where Jerry hired a maid, then started sleeping with her while still paying her to clean. She stopped cleaning, but continued the bedroom activities and accepting the money. Makes things awkward!
All hail the drama critter! DUN DUN DUUUUUUN! 🦫
what position...I almost choked mid drink on that line
she probably did too....
Dude, what's with your volume on the clips???
Usually the women are the manipulative party in these cases and I thought this was going to be no different at first. Once I heard her say she had offered to pay him back and he refused then invited her to go on a business trip with him, I realized who was doing the manipulating here.

Only the judge can drink something
Nonsense. Men are the ones committing the vast majority of emotional abuse, misogynistic clown
Judge always reminds me of the lab guy from the movie 12 Monkeys that releases the virus 🦠 😂😂😂😂😂
I'd believe her if not for the fact her parents are trying to collect too.
Not true Miss, just because your dating him now, no need to comment many times on false information!
Seems she owes everyone money. Even her parents want their money.
what a slimey dude..
Oh man, I drink red bull on camera all the time. Guess I'll have to top.
But yet actually, she still owes him $1000 but he should accept it this time
Is he upset because she wasn’t putting out in exchange for his monetary favours ?
He doesn’t deserve to get his money back but just on general principles I will say..She should never have taken money from him.
I had a lot of stress during my admin assistant days but no one ever offered me any money!
What business does he own? I recommend not going to that business.
Good judge
$18 an hour is poverty wages in this economy.
When simping goes wrong?
The problem isn’t the Lon it’s the fact we wouldn’t take payment from her besides work basically forcing her to violate the PPO, he’s just stupid.
Haha love the i need to breath air supply
She worked 5.5 hours at hourly rate. Nothing further after that....
Mmmmm Hmmmm,...
Put your red bull down….. 🤣😂😅
He didn't find any issue with order violated????
