Thank you to everyone who’s reached out to me and has left messages in the live chat! And to the bois for reading my story! I have a lot to think about, thank you for all of the helpful points 💕 I will definitely update you all on the outcome when it comes, this has been weighing on me for a good while. So much love, and thank you all! 🫰🏻 (And good attempt at the heart Josh, keep practicing 💕)
I know it’s been a while and I hope everything worked out for you, but I just wanted to say: it’s not your responsibility to keep others comfortable when their comfort consists of denying your reality or humanity. Not telling her might avoid additional strain to your relationship with her, but it also means that you will have to tiptoe around a prominent part of your life that you are excited about every time you talk to her. If she’s uncomfortable with it, that’s her burden to carry. Not yours 💗
Hi other Demi here. I wanted to say thank you for sharing this story as I came out to my homophobic mother about 2 years ago right before going no contact. I knew she was super religious, conservative, & homophobic when I came out & it was a contributing factor to way I cut off contact. I'm knew to the channel (just found it yesterday) so if you gave an update I haven't heard it yet. Hope everything works out for you.
I have a feeling that the wife having feelings for her friend is just confused feelings because of his own confession and the fact they’ve ended up in close proximity afterwards. He’s definitely playing games here and some space between them should help - don’t let him be your maid of honour
Story 3: ask him about his opinions on controversial topics and let him talk. I'm sure you'll find something that'll change the way you look at him or vice versa.
I think that negative review is bogus. While it is true that when josh is gone it’s sad, but that’s true for any member. Y’all are all amazing and I love when you’re all together.
I'm glad that Josh called out the wikimaniac who has feelings for their friend - it saved me from typing a whole paragraphs in these comments lol. Both OP and their friend suck here and need to cut contact completely if OP wants to keep their current relationship and not be a cheater. everyone makes mistakes OP so don't be too hard on yourself - just be better moving forward
Keep in mind OP said they’d cut off their friend if need be. They’re not doing anything wrong by feeling the way they do. The problem would be if they acted on it
@@Oujibug Depends. Saying you're willing to cut someone off while keeping both hands on the rope holding them up with no movement to grab a knife is a shit thing to do. Honestly sounds like they were both playing stupid at being "friends" but in reality keeping each other in the back pocket just in case. That most def is a cheater mindset and need to both be called out and worked on.
For the 2nd story, the bf and the writer are wrong. As soon as the best friend admitted that, she should've kept her distance and told her husband. But the fact that she kept it and even had a close encounter with him meant that she entertained it and did indeed cheat emotionally.
Story 4: I don't think the text actually went to the ex bf. They sent it to a page that posts fake texts of things that people wish they could actually send but can't. He didn't actually recieve anything. Sorta like those anonymous confession instagram or tumblr pages.
John’s flavor is vainilla ice cream from Wendy’s or McDonald’s with French fries, Josh is strawberry ice cream for sure no doubt, and Sean is like a lava cake with vainilla ice cream or like a warm cookie or brownie you get at a restaurant with the ice cream
Josh’ trying to do korean heart is so relatable 😂 Yes to the comment: different flavour of handsome! Honestly, whenever either one of you is missing i get bummed out… its not the same, even though ive loved every single guest so far.. so the racist review is wrong!😂
same! also she submitted the message/story to the author (geloy concepcion) of that other project so I think that, in addition to this episode, was her anonymously giving her ex her condolences
Story 4 - we are not strangers is a site where you can write a note to someone anonymously. You can look up names and initials and see notes that were made about those names.
The first story and past episodes reiterate that I'd be safe if I were to meet the boys. John: axhole Me: Lizzie!? Also it's my opinion (just mine, could be wrong) that Lizzie didn't kill them. There wasn't really time to do both and be completely clean. Her doctor gave her drugs to calm down so her answers were weird. There was three instances of a weird man being around a few days before the murder and twice on the day of. Last podcast on the left has a good episode about her if anyone wants to listen.
About unliking someone Take the traits, mannerisms, whatever, that you don't like and focus on those, really focus on them, no attention to the things that you like If all else fails, just repeat in your head "they unalive kittens/puppies for fun" (it's morbid, but it usually works)
Story 1 as a trans man: OP needs to wait with presenting the info until she(?) is ready to lay down the law. Its the mother who is alienating herself from a modern society, not the other way around. OP needs to be ready to tell the mother "hey, dont think i forgot what you said because thats the reason i am telling you this. If you interrupt me at any point i will hang up and never speak to you again. I am getting married to (gf). This is my white flag to you. You have the opportunity to choose how to act now, knowing that if you ever say anything but supportive words about this marriage and my gf, you will be blocked within the minute and that will be the last time we speak. So, goodnight and talk to you later." Edit: spelling mistakes Also adding. I know im cutthroat with this shit. But this is my bare minimum for feeling safe in marrying this person. This is a turbulent time and I need to know that the person im marrying would riot in the streets without question for my ability to have a life worth living
You guys made me laugh so much! 😂 this episode as always was too funny, I hadn’t laughed so much in a while. Also for the story of maid of honor, I think the guy friend definitely sucks and she also has blame… she has to talk with husband and be honest, but I don’t think she likes him like that… when someone so close to you confess it can make you feel confused. When I was in my teens I had an experience similar (although I was single at the time) I did go out with my friend but soon found out I didn’t like him like that… and told him gently. She has to cut contact off for herself but also for her friend, both will need time to get over it and it would do them no favors at all to spend time together.
@@MsMeliBby it's was on their 100th ep and it was them saying that the mom was the AH for leaving her disabled daughter who worked in retail the house and car and giving her doctor daughter a smaller amount.
On story 3 I don't understand how OP's friend is the asshole for having feelings for her and he is wrecking everything but she isn't the asshole for admitting that she had feeling for him before he even said anything. And she is the only one that can wreck her marriage because of her feelings not his. Sorry I'm just really confused by that. Maybe I'm just dumb and missed something. haha
I think it’s predominantly bc he waited until AFTER the first wedding to confess, he messed up a bunch of complicated feelings and honestly should’ve just kept it to himself. If it was before the first wedding it might be different but he waited until after she was married
@@jessking4354 Oh ok. Thank you so much for clearing that up for me because I truly didn't understand why it seemed to me that they were saying that only he was the asshole but I missed that part where they said he confessed AFTER the first wedding. I just assumed it was before too. That makes sense to me now and yeah he is the a-hole for that. You can have the thought but you don't have to say it out loud. haha!
I hope this doesn't come across as abrasive or sexist but I (M20) have been listening to you guys for the last couple weeks at work while I work third shift in a factory. I enjoy listening and you guys make me laugh but I do get slightly bothered as you generally give guys more flack and women more slack on their actions. On the story of the car tire, I enjoyed listening to your reactions but I couldn't help feeling a little disturbed. If I understand you well enough, if the roles with the story were reversed you would have given the prankster a lot of heat as gaslighting and manipulation in a relationship are toxic. I realize in the original story that the boyfriend was being toxic to his girlfriend but I don'tthink should toxicity as a response should be praised. I understand that as guys you are more likely to be more judgemental towards men as that's human behavior with in groups. In the American prison system, an individual is more likely to be jailed if their judge is the same race as them, so in the same streams of thought I get why you are more harsh with men. I hope this doesn't come across poorly and I mean no insult. I don't think this comment comes from a frame of fragile masculinity, I just wanted to point out a trend I noticed in your videos. Enjoy your content and have a good day.
Caucasian ain't white. It's West Asia. Have y'all ever studied geography? Can Americans just stop using other people's ethnicity to describe European Americans who have literally nothing to do with the Caucasus region or people? Like okay, if y'all are so desperate to find a way to name one's origin in every conversation, call them what they really are, Europeans. Do research before using words, google is literally free and whites really should stop colonizing every pretty word/place they like. No hate to these guys, I really love the content but it's really disappointing to see the misusage of the word Qafqaz, with every creator I like, it's the same. Please educate yourselves.
Historically speaking, the term Caucasian is derived from the look of the people in the Caucasus region. A German anthropologist became enamored with the people there and thought them to be the ideal type of beauty. He brought the term back throughout all of Europe and the term was adapted to systems representing a multitude of Euro cultures and ancestry. It developed from there. Words and meanings evolve. Also... for the record the Caucasus region is Georgia, Russia, Armenia and Azerbaijan area... Which is a part of Europe as well as West Asia....
@@starsearcher92 culturally and geographically speaking it is definitely not part of Europe. People look mix of a West Asian, Slavic in some parts and Middle Eastern. Culturally it's very unique and it's own. You're very correct with the countries that it includes. And these countries have A LOT in common that is literally only Unique to this region, not to Europe or even Asia. So as I said just cuz they thought word is pretty, people are pretty let's colonize the word to use it to describe ourselves even though we have nothing to do with them is just disrespectful. And now people who has no idea where is what are using the word to describe White Americans. it is appropriation.
@@sevda.c you’re really mad about an English word and this is definitely not the outlet for it, I mean it’s not like these guys have the power to change encyclopedia’s definition of a word for the whole English speaking population. BTW it isn’t only used by “dumb” Americans and it is used in official documentations like medical records, passports, certificates etc. If you feel that strongly about it then generate a petition and start spreading the word through your social channels, the power to change the world and stop them “colonizers” is in your hands 🤷♀️
@@Apolinariah it's not an English word, it's a Greek/Persian word. Word is Qafqaz referring to the people who live here and sharing culture and heritage. In English, the word itself lacks any real scientific meaning but hangs on as a blanket term for white/European people because the U.S. legal system made use of it to shape policy and the nature of its society. So yes it is stolen. It is the same thing as calling idk let's say German Americans "Desi" all of a sudden. And then they have to create a petition to stop this bs? Bruh, everyone from this region is hating what Usa did with the word and says stop it and y'all are like create a petition? It's basic respect. People who are real Caucasians living literally in the region of mountain Caucasus saying stop misusing our name, thus there's no discussion.
You are correct about Caucasians. I would like to add that not all white people are European and not all of the people in this video are white. Many people in the US don't know about the origin of the word Caucasian. They think it's a more polite word for white people. People don't know what they don't know. It's okay to correct ignorance, but it's futile to meet ignorance with hostility

Please be safe Demi ❤️ as a fellow LGBT peep, I wish you well and so much support!
Is telling your brother first and having him with you as support when telling your mother, or telling the two of them together an option?
I know it’s been a while and I hope everything worked out for you, but I just wanted to say: it’s not your responsibility to keep others comfortable when their comfort consists of denying your reality or humanity.

Yes to the comment: different flavour of handsome! Honestly, whenever either one of you is missing i get bummed out… its not the same, even though ive loved every single guest so far.. so the racist review is wrong!😂
🫰🫰🫰
In story 4 I thought the anonymous confession was the show. OP used this Ep to make their confession.
At least that’s how I heard it 🤷♀️
same! also she submitted the message/story to the author (geloy concepcion) of that other project so I think that, in addition to this episode, was her anonymously giving her ex her condolences
Lmao my name is Naomi (but everyone calls me mimis) and while I am not the one who sent this story, I definitely felt her embarrassment 😂😂😂
NAOMI WAKE UP! 🎶🎶
If you want to in catch feelings for someone it's important to distance from that person.
Story 4 - we are not strangers is a site where you can write a note to someone anonymously. You can look up names and initials and see notes that were made about those names.
Josh: Strawberry
John: Oreo
Sean: Coffee
I said josh was strawberry too tbh
Hey so I’m MusicLover from Apple Podcasts! Thanks for the shoutout 💖
Also, I think the flavors were spot on lol
I have three grandpas, and three grandmas; Because they got divorced and remarried.
The first story and past episodes reiterate that I'd be safe if I were to meet the boys.
John: axhole
Me: Lizzie!?

This is the first time I've heard my name in a story & now I'm freaked out lol
I love John and Sean Wwe button/talks
Finally got to see you on youtube. Will still listen on spotify
I am honestly shocked that these boys dont have a "ya racist" button....
Police officers work for the city and sheriff's deputies work for the county. Troopers work for the state.
Seeing your gf twice a year is too much. F the mom.
Lol I started watching y'all bc THT made some really gross classist comments on an episode and I haven't been able to watch them ever since
Oooo what did they say.?
@@MsMeliBby it's was on their 100th ep and it was them saying that the mom was the AH for leaving her disabled daughter who worked in retail the house and car and giving her doctor daughter a smaller amount.
Sheriff are for counties police are for city.

Was Josh’s background moving during the confession story or am I high???
Lol it’s a fake brick wall backdrop, yea it moves sometimes 😂
@@Apolinariah yeah it just freaked me out I guess cause where’s the wind coming from 🤣 looks bizarre to see it move
