OKOP okay op okay storytime ok storytime
Oh my god, none of my poly friends would EVER suggest becoming poly to someone to feel better about having an affair, wtf.
I wonder if they got the full story or if he just talked about thinking going poly, but not that he was already having someone in mind... if not though, yeah that's f'd up
@@steph0711 That would be my guess. At most, I can imagine he went to them with a "what's it like to be in love with more than one person", not spilling about the actual affair. My partner and I are poly, we have had others in our relationship before that just didn't work out for the usual reasons that relationships don't work out.
I am honest and open with my friends who ask questions, and I tell them point blank that a poly relationship won't work for everyone but if it's something that you think might work for you then it's a worthwhile conversation to have with your partner. It's a two yeses, one no situation, but you can't know until you talk about it like adults. I wouldn't suggest it as a conversation on the heels of an affair, but I also wouldn't recommend that people stay together after an affair, because I cannot imagine that trust ever being rebuilt enough to make a happy, healthy relationship possible.
@@alias-majik Yeah, I agree with everything that you said. Trust and communication are everything in any kind of relationship!
@steph0711 @alias-majik that sounds like the most likely scenario. That advice sounds like he went to them about having feelings for more than one person but left out the relevant detail that he already cheated.
Makes me wonder if he told the whole story
If you ever find yourself staying in any relationship (romantic or otherwise) because “it’s been a long time” you need to leave that situation. That is how toxic people stay in your life they pretend to be good for long enough you feel like you have to stay that should NEVER be the only reason you stay with someone
I needed to read that thank you
As much as i love to see a story when a partner wants to "open the marriage" and watch it go right for the OP and fizzle out for the spouse, I'm much happier seeing an OP have enough self respect to just bounce
I know no matter what I don’t think there is anybody that would ask for an open relationship if they don’t at least have someone in mind but most of the time they’re already cheating at least emotionally.
17:33 he was the one to throw away 12 years as soon as he started cheating, OP has all the rights to just put an end to it and never look back
1st story, OP made some updates
" I've taken some distance, sleeping at my friend's. We both started IC and for the first time since last week, I saw him. He wanted to have a honest conversation. It was too early, of course, but I couldn't help being curious (and needed some stuff at the house).
Meeting him was super triggering. He tried to be gentle and patient, he was less pushy but I still couldn't react at all to his "I love you", "I miss you so much" or "Forgive me".
He wanted to tell me what his first therapy sessions unveiled, his interpretation of the events, and wanted to come out completely clean once and for all.
We went through the whole timeline, from the beginning of the affair to now, and how far it went, in excrutiating details. I was aware of the sexting. The nude pics - well he never told me upfront but I guessed. The intimate calls and videos, again I guessed but he didn't tell me either. He said since she was living too far away from him, he never met her but definitely would have tried otherwise. Worst, it almost happened once but she couldn't make it (at least that's what he says, I don't know anymore). They both contributed but he admits he's the one responsible for the escalation.
His therapist established he needed to work on depression and him constantly seeking validation and attention, due to self-esteem and emotional dependency issues. He realized he felt frustrated because he was home, sick and couldn't help me anymore nor progress on his career. Unhappy with our house, unhappy with his job. He didn't tell me, because he didn't want to be a burden. He needed someone to talk to and a stranger was more fun than his own wife of friends, because it felt new and exciting. It provided him an escape.
Seeing the damage he caused to me was a wake-up call for him and he is willing to work hard on himself to never let it happen again and regain my trust. That's what he says at least.
As for me, my therapist says I am depressed too and have trouble standing up for myself and putting clear boundaries with others (no way?!). Which is why he went as far as to suggest a polyamory relationship - he's used to me being too accommodating in our daily lives. Oh, he doesn't care at all anymore about polyamory BTW.
The issue raises from something I'm not confident he could fix and avoid in the future. I'm more and more inclined to divorce him. But I still feel very weak. I'll not rush anything and take my time to prepare.
Good luck to y'all. "
"Gosh I thought and I wished I wouldn't have anything to share here before a while but here we go…
I went back to my friend's since my last post. Which still makes my WH extremely sad. Yesterday he called me, crying (we agreed we would only do that in case of an emergency), and said he saw his parents. His parents immediately noticed something was wrong and well, he eventually admitted the affair to them. They called me later, said he was in the wrong and were extremely disappointed in him. He told them the whole truth as far as I can tell. They said they would support me in any way they can.
But it's still their son.
I decided I'd maybe tell my parents too so I could get a less compromised party to support me. I said I needed time to think and prepare and would see them once I'd be comfortable enough to do so. My WH's parents asked if I wanted them to call my parents themselves and for once (!) I stood my ground "No, I'll do it, let me decide when I'm ready." They promised me they'd not do it.
You know what happened? Today, literally the NEXT DAY, my mother-in-law was supposedly "too guilty and worried about me", called my parents and told them everything. Without telling me beforehand. She did it "for my wellbeing" and "hope I'll forgive her one day".
My parents are great people but they are like me, somewhat naive. They think what my husband did was very wrong but that our love could be strong enough to get over it. They'll side with me no matter what, but they still hope for reconciliation because "we can't picture you guys without each other" and "everyone deserves a second chance".
I don't care what anyone hopes what my decision is gonna be (hint: I, for one, can certainly picture myself without him). The issue is that at this point I'm not sure I'll trust anyone ever again. Why can't I catch a breath? F*CK, can anyone respect my boundaries and stop pressuring me?
Is there anything else than betrayals and broken promises in this whole thing?
Traitors, all of them.
/Rant
EDIT: oof I'm sorry this was very raw, I should have waited to calm down before posting. Take care.
EDIT 2 : I received a wall of text from my MIL, she tells me why she did it (short version: we were afraid you'd harm yourself and we did it to protect you, one day you will understand and forgive us) but no apologies in sight. I will not reply.
EDIT 3: I saw my parents. I told them everything, they didn't say much, mostly listened and hold my hands / hug me. I can call them or go to their place whenever I want and for now, they think I should keep recovering before taking any decision (still my choice tho). They said I should not be too mad at my MIL because she didn't want to tell them at first, and they insisted. I don't care what, who or how it happened, the consequences are the same, I'm still mad and lost and hurt."
The ML sucks
If MIL actually thought that OP was in danger of hurting herself, she 100% did the right thing in telling her parents. That's about the only thing I would say justified that behavior. You don't ignore the signs of someone potentially harming themselves, and as far as we know, MIL didn't have anyone else to contact that would have been in a position to help OP (i.e. she probably doesn't know her friends and she certainly shouldn't send her son to help). OP might never forgive her, but I think it was a worthwhile risk in her mind.
MiL is an AH. She wanted to tell OP's parents so she could spin her own narrative before OP could tell things from her perspective. She was blatantly trying to undermine OP by taking away her "less compromised party". F her and F her son.
I'd not only divorce him for cheating, but I'd tell him that his mother crossing that boundary is what solidified the decision for me. "Because now I see where you get it from and I don't think you're ever going to respect me and my boundaries. Because that's something most people learn from their parents and yours clearly don't know how". Let her have to worry about getting forgiveness back from someone who actually matters to her. But then again, I'm petty.
@alias-majik and why would she think that? It had happened a while before they found out. She just wanted to be the one to telll then
@@alexiatr well that's what the explanation that the MIL sent said, if you read through to the edits
Never stay with a cheater. Therapy won't fix trash, but excuse this guys cheating behaviour. Op got lucky not having kids with a man-child. Op wanting to fix something she didn't break is embarrassing, and she deserves better.
I mean you’re not completely right. My dad cheated on my mom and she “forgave” him but she is bitter because of that and has made her life, my dad’s, and to some degree mine and my siblings’s life shitty in some aspects all because she never really forgave him and has never being able to get over it. My dad has been an amazing partner and father for over 35+ years after the cheating but she has not moved on from that. So I think that even if the person really never cheated again and becomes an amazing partner doesn’t mean she would be able to get over it. And by the sounds of it, I think she cannot happily leave with him and his cheating.
Ik lll
Mechanic neighbor can GET IT, what a dope dude!
12 years yes, but he also fell In love with someone else…
Well he cheater so yeah he is clearly a trash person.
@@toxiczombiewolf5692was more so responding to Sam’s repetitive comment of “over one booty pic?!”
Like obviously it’s way more than that
I understand he acknowledged that in the end but that was kinda annoying how many times he repeated that as if that was the only thing that happened.
Exactly, thank you
2nd story is such a good one. Good guy who naturally steps up.
Omg the second story is so cuuuute!!! I worked with mechanics for nearly a decade and to tell you that the current mechanics are the sweetest guys you can meet, that wouldn't be an exaggeration❤ ❤❤
Riley! It’s still cheating and yes we can blame the husband in the first story! Polyamory or opening your marriage should be two yeses one no. He’s being so gross.
Oh my God that last story.... That just melts my heart! I hope and pray they grow old together, I hope and pray that when the grandkids come over on the weekends that they are sitting on their porch swing sipping some iced tea watching the sunset.
What a beautiful story. It is a breath of fresh air to hear a story like this amidst all the cheating and lying and revenge and scoundrelism... I'm not sure if that's a real word or not but I used it.
We all love those stories. We like the drama, I guess, otherwise we wouldn't be here. But to hear something like this just makes me feel so happy and it makes me want to give my husband a great big ole kiss and tell him how much I love him. And I do that anyways but I just want to do it again.. it makes me think of how we first met and fell in love.
It makes me smile knowing that those two... NO three... Can't forget about their son, are out there in the world living their best life with each other!!
Ugh @ the first story. 😢
Its sad how often I've heard stories similar to this, where someone connected romantically to another person online in games while in a relationship. It seems similar to the whole "work spouse" thing, but for games. Crazy.
" we were born to run w just our feet"
Was that a dig at pony play folk?? 😂
I love your username! lol!
OPs husband is in the sweetheart mentality of things thinking he is in love with that gamer girl and this is speaking as a gamer girl myself that has seen that situation so many times it's sad. Usually it happens when it's a hobby that the other partner doesn't share and the attention they get there then seems like neglect from the real life partner. They form false connections and go into the sweetheart phase because as you're gaming and talking alot, people are being silly and just having fun so it seems like the best thing and real life starts to feel boring and you want out. there's no sense of responsibilities you would have to deal with as yet because you don't live together. You're not taking care of them, doing the cooking, cleaning etc, so you can create a fantasy in your mind of a life together. 9/10 those relationships crash and burn hard and fast, within weeks or several months because when reality sinks in, they come to despise each other, finding fault in each other constantly or even going so far as to cheat on each other with other players again and then the friendship circle they game in becomes awkward because now the others feel like they need to choose one. Unless he stops gaming or has OP join him in another game (new server etc)or they find other hobbies to share in odds are he is going to drift to someone else or sweet talk that very same female right back to caring if in fact they didn't just begin speaking under other character names. Several of the largest mmos are known for these things happening in them quite a bit.
32:08 Basketball shoes ate high tops so when you land from a shot or save your ankle has more support and less likely to roll
“Let’s check out this floor you been talking about” made me cackle 😂😂😂
“Might be your cousin”
“So I’ve already met the parents. Let’s gooooooo”
32:32 😂 I tell you, I hiked the hard way up a steep incline on a mountain and when I got to the top I was like 'Hey, I'll take the easy route down on the flat, wide concrete path built for tourists. I kid you not, 5 mins later I flipping roll my ankle (terrible popping sound) walking on said wide, flat, even surface... 😵💫 I feel you Sam...
Riley is my favorite human EVER! ❤😂🖤
Me too
THE LAST STORY HAS ME ENVIOUS. I WANT BOTH OF THEM TO BE MARRIED AND GROW OLD❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
"Come on" face joke was hilarious :D 😂
3:28 it’s not love, it’s lust. He clearly feels differently about his wife
That ERBoH humming(?) segment with the dog barking video was hilarious 😂 😂
It's rare but once a cheater always a cheater isn't a 100% thing to happen again after the first time. My mom cheated on my dad early on in their marriage. She came home and told him what she did. She apologized and took accountability right away. They went to church therapy and renewed their vows. It never happened again. And there's me, I matured out of cheating a lot in high-school. Cheaters can change.
“It’s a shock at first” well done Riley 👏
49:21 I’m driving, listening to this and crying my eyes out and tears of joy
If they do get married I hope OP lets the world know.
I talked to my bf about marriage recently and I'm dying to pop the question first. These things are so sweet, more power to women being romantic to male partners
The first story husband wanted polygamy but coated it as polyamory relationship
Almost through with the episode and I'm still mad about him.
First story about poly....
It's a case of monogamous cheating that he's trying to justify by making it poly. This doesn't really work. It's basically poly under duress.
As yall pointed out, there has to be solid trust and a mutual desire to be poly. It never ends well when one partner basically shoves poly down the others' throat, especially because they cheated.
And those are bad poly friends. I'm poly and would never suggest poly in that situation.
I don’t know much about barefoot running. But I love wearing the brands Splay, Xero, and an Amazon brand called Whitin for everyday walking. I weightlift barefoot and love it!
Whoa, a girl gamer. 😮 wait, I'm one too
Barefoot shoes are THE BEST!!!
They give your feet a chance to breathe and it feels the most natural when your walking. I haven't run in them, but they are soooo worth the purchase.
Not me being older than all of the OP storytime crew andbplay fornite lmaooo
I hope OP and Casey get married cause that is just too cute! So adorable!
The problem is that when you 'open' your marriage, eventually it's so open that you're not in it anymore.
32:07 his laugh 😍🤣
There's another update on the cute neighbors-to-couple story! He's proposing! He talked to her family about it and is planning on getting a ring. He was going to wait until they got a house together, but he realized that was just an excuse. He said he doesn't know how or when, but he will update again when he does!
@okop my quick input: I was reading something that said (big generalizations here) that most women find emotional cheating more hurtful than physical, while men find physical cheating more hurtful… I don’t know if that’s just the sample group they surveyed or if there’s some legit psychological reasons for that.
Anyway for my personal perspective I’ve been cheated on before I was married and again years later (different person) by my husband and it was MUCH more painful, BECAUSE we were married and his affair involved both physical and emotional cheating. And he told her stuff he never told me and it just gave me gross pick me girl feelings… my whole life blew up and 2years after our divorce I’m still trying to pick myself up.
Sam"we were all born to run"
Me who was born with spines bifida: side eye 👀
off topic. I could not stop staring at that little Giraffe that John is holding. that is waay to cutee! 😂💙
About the barefoot shoes;
1. You get better sensory feedback from the ground, which enhances your body's ability to sense and respond to changes in terrain, reducing the likelihood of ankle rolling.
2. Barefoot shoes encourage the use of foot muscles, tendons, and ligaments, strengthening them over time. Stronger muscles around the ankle can provide better support and stability.
3. Barefoot shoes promote a more natural foot strike, often leading to better alignment and reduced strain on the ankle.
4. Most barefoot shoes have little to no heel elevation, which can improve balance and posture, further reducing the risk of ankle injuries.
Basically overtime barefoot shoes will absolutely help you not roll your ankles as much, but it won't be immediate
Also you can buy barefoot shoes that look like normal shoes, with wider toe boxes etc you don't have to get the toe ones :) shoes are pretty horrible for your feet (still better than walking around barefoot especially in the city) and change the shape,
I really advise looking at pictures of feet before and after shoes to see what I mean
I don't even have barefoot shoes and now I've convinced myself to get some eventually lmao
Buy a few basic toe shoes, pick the most comfortable, and just walk in them around town or wherever you work and/or shop, for like a month or 2.
You'll be retraining some musclus and their connections to bone, so its definitely normal to have some new and somewhat random aches, here and there, as you adjust.
Once you've adjusted to walking in toe shoes, THEN you can introduce the runner models, after a few months. They are typically just better reinforced, and have a bit more arch support, to cushion running impact while you again adjust. When THOSE become comfortable to wear every run, you can then introduce the less reinforced toe shoes into your runs.
Be very sure to listen to your body throughout the entire process. LITERALLY... NOT EVERYONE IS BUILT this way, and that is perfectly ok too ❤
In my case? The results, were basically becoming increasingly uncomfortable with walking in my previous, standard shaped trainers, (and even formal footwear...)
But ALSO... I was having no more lower back soreness... The LITERAL pain in my neck (c5-7, whiplash injury) was diminished to the point, I havent had a flare up in over a year... Ive been wearing toe shoes for a decade or so, and my flare ups are faaar between these days. So... I recommend at least giving them a try 🤔
My uncle used to have issues with his arch and heel until he switched to wearing Vibrams all the time. He also saw his run times during his Air Force PT improve by quite a bit.
lol I am I’m a poly relationship and I have told my partners how much i love your guys show🤣❤❤
For the shoe debate. To my understanding the toes shoes and others of the like will help you strengthen the muscles around your feet, once stronger and more flexible they are less likely to experience injuries like a rolled ankle but you need to get them to that point 1st. Shoes that have a high ankle, like boots or hiking shoes, will have an immediate impact on reducing rolled ankles because they are holding the ankle in place.
Also for earlier human I know that atleast the natives to North America used sap on their as a protective barrier on their feet. If I remember correctly, they eventually shifted to putting the sap on their moccasins.
The ground where I grew up was extremely soft but there would be thorns and sticks that would stab you so as a kid that ran around barefoot, didnt get calluses and would frequently end up with sap stuck to my feet. Thus me learning the unsourced fact but I also learned random things like how the trees move before rain and how to make ink from acorn. 🤷♀️
How oblivious is he that he is making moves at her.
There are definitely rock people out there 😂
wtf John 😂 (the dentures joke)
I'm 110% in love with Sam. Yes my husband knows 😂😂😂
Am I the only one who gets scared every time they ask us to subscribe and feel guilty for enjoying this too much without so much of a subscribe so I run to click the subscribe button but find out I am already a subscriber and this happens every single time 🤣
My grandma looked over at my grandpa and told me oh he already knows cause he listens to you guys as well, and now I wanna dig a hole and never leave 😂😅😂.
She is going to leave her husband. Yeah, it's hard to be single again after 12 years together and you basically grew up together and are very comfortable. Yet, she is getting individual therapy, and she is saying things like she knows she should leave. She is already gone, she just needs some confidence with her decision and she's getting that with therapy.
I wonder how many people didn't get the Epic rap battles of history reference. I highly appreciate the reference.
32:53 to address barefoot running for Sam you could start by getting barefoot shoes off Amazon. I got some a couple months ago I also have bad ankles and have been wearing them to work everyday (I work in a hospital on my feet a lot) it can take some time for your feet to adjust to a more wider natural foot stance so there may be some discomfort at first to push through. I’m loving mine personally and I feel like they are helping with both my posture and my weak ankles. They’ll also help with avoiding getting bunions that people can get with most shoes that are sold being much more narrow than what feet naturally need.
polyamory: a pyramid scheme
Haha, I love it. Totally. A scam and hyped up too much with no gain.
6:30 I am definitely in love with all of okop! ❤ my bf doesn't care much for the content but idc I am in love! Lolzzzz
Last story I’m so happy for you 🥰🥰
Sam's been cooing like the pigeon he is. 😂❤❤
England summer camps was literally just a bunch of kids egging each other on to see who could stay on the sharp pointy rocks the longest, if it wasn’t that it was bark and omg splinters… why were we like this??? I have no clue
12 years on repeat but there’s another term that needs to be considered: SUNK COST FALLACY. Which is essentially thinking about the length of time they are together being a reason she should stay.
EDIT: CALLED IT! SUNK COST FALLACY AWARENESS FOR THE WIN!
Barefoot shoes were originally made for walking in the river or other areas of water because you never know what you could step on glass, sharp rocks or who knows what else.
I have some the Xero shoes are great and vivo aren’t bad but I like the Xeros barefoot shoes better
I mean yeah I'm not saying that I'm in love with John but I'm not saying that I would hate spending the whole day sliding my fingers through his beautiful golden hair 😅
For barefoot running start with barefoot style shoes on a daily basis to build up the muscles in your feet. I switched to barefoot style shoes and have never gone back
The invisible gamer girlfriend is just providing dopamine. It’s not real, but the flood of connection feelings make it feel real more real than the actual relationship which isn’t this huge dopamine spike anymore and that feeling will quickly wear off once you finally meet in a real relationship.
I mean, who could have any sort of complaint about Sam whispering sweet nothings. 😂
As someone who is polyamorous, I am shocked the husband's poly friends were encouraging him. He cheated. Op didn't consent to him having a second partner, so it's auto cheating. That's THE WORST way to begin a poly relationship. If they do stay together, they need serious therapy and he needs to drop the idea of an additional partner (until OP is ready and brings it up herself)
Early crew! Lets GO!!!
If online affair dude went through an illness or injury, that’s a traumatic event. I can see the online relationship being a coping mechanism for the trauma of the injury. Not excusing the behaviour, but if I were the wife I would definitely try therapy first before divorcing.
My 1st relationship conspiracy theory: 1st story
This is all an elaborate plan to insert the 3rd person into the marriage and the cheater already knew the one he was cheating with, probably for a long time too. They came up with this plan of pretending to have met online, that it was a gradual thing, that he didn't realize he was falling for the other, BLA BLA BLA, all in a bid to get her to accept it.
The texts were of course orchestrated, like everything else.
I wouldn't believe him when he says they never met.
Either those polyamory friends discussed it beforehand, or someone was blindsided, like OP, into accepting polyamory. 😢
Story 2 is so sweet🥰
Not gonna stop shoeless Sam, but not gonna encourage em either 🙈🙈
Also, second story, he was BAMBOOZLED!
"12 years > 1 booty pic"
We’re so good at this 🤣
Poly exists, but don’t be a shitty person about bringing it up with your partner and cheat on them before hand.
I watched people pretend they were poly because they wanted to sleep with other people. Just be honest people👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Re: the first story. I was in a 10 year relationship and went through (immense) bullshit from this person. And when I finally left I found the love of my life and father of my children. That 10 year relationship was so hard. OP in that story needs to walk away because she deserves better. That stinky man just doesn't want to be alone and she will always feel like the only reason he's there is because the gamer girl Left him. Gross behavior!
1st story: I honestly think being together 12 years makes staying together even less appealing. Why is 12 years important? Because it shows how close you are? So someone can be that close to you and still cheat on you and you think they'll what? Remain faithful? 12 years together didn't make them value you enough not to cheat, do you really think a couples therapy will?
His need for validation is also what led to this, which makes me doubt it's his first time cheating. If this was his first time cheating it's only because it was the first time he's had the opportunity. Because the moment he had the opportunity he jumped on it.
You deserve way better than someone who cheated and wants to open the marriage that you didn’t sign up for I know it’s been years but please take caution it will happen again my gut is telling me you’re in for a world of hurt and pain if you continue with this marriage and I normally would say counseling but I can’t suggest that this time I wish you the best happiness love in your life 🥰🥰
Yoooo a new copy read for zoc doc. Happy to see it! The broken bone but was getting kinda old lol
Been listening about 3 months. He knows nothing.😂😂
I'm Widowed and 41, the guy I had been seeing dumped me because he still has feelings for his Ex whom he hasn't seen in almost 4 years, who has a Boyfriend because she moved on, we still text everyday, but yeah, whatever, I'm free.
Your ’members only’ videos can’t be played in the background (on the phone)?
Okay sooo I have weird facts about feet the reason being is my fiancé works with a foot doctor. So your feet are already warped to rely on shoes. If you were to do bare foot running it would be very painful. If you never ever wore shoes that’s different but, because you have worn shoes throughout your life your body is meant for shoes. It is better to wear shoes that have a solid heal and one that can’t be Beant easily ASICS being one of the best brands personally because of their shoes being neutral. Depending on your foot it can vary on the type of shoe you should wear. The worst shoes include hey dudes, sandals, flats and anything that’s sort of flat and bendy.
Also if you notice a tilt in any of your toes that’s an example of your foot warping to shoes.
Hey y'all much love
I think story 2, the husband had ✨️limerance✨️
BBL DRIZZY 🤪 BBL DRIZZZAYYYYY
No offence Sam and John but I still love my husband even after listening to you every day 🤷
That went from "poly- relationship" to "open- relationship" really fast.
I wonder if these poly friends knew he cheated before they encouraged him and OP to poly or open. (Not sure if OP knows the difference.)
She is going to leave. Saying it out loud to mental health professionals will crystallize the need
I got a crush on Sam for a while. But I did talk to my partner about it, so.... 🤷♀️ it's not the first time it's happened either. We've been together for 14 years. Little crushed happen, they get talked about, and we move on. Communication in everything is so important.
That is adorable. Probably because I have almost ten years on Sam, but I want to adopt him like a puppy, feed him, and give him relationship advice, poor guy.
@alias-majik yea, that's more of how I feel now. I'm only 31, but I find myself saying "oh honey" at Sam a lot 😂😅
Sam I went “barefoot” about a year ago and i definitely have noticed a difference in lower back pain and the strength in my feet! I also have naturally high arches and a very primitive blood line (think mountain people lmao) so I think genetics play alot into it also
i miss okop 🤣 it’s just easier to say plus op stands for original poster so like… doesn’t matter if the stories come from reddit or any other site / app 🤷♀️ dunno haha hopefully it’ll get easier 🤣 i also miss them saying “OKOP!” at the start (? maybe before each story? can’t remember exactly) in their older videos LOL just me? 😅 i’m excited for the gang but as a new-ish fan of the podcast, it’s been surreal seeing the changes happening considering i was first enticed by the older videos 😂 although admittedly i’ve seen them around but never watched any videos because i originally thought it was one of those weird youtube channels for kids 💀 LOL boy was i wrong! 😂
6:44 bhahahaa yes my husband knows lol he’s seen. Matter of fact I was listening to a different video earlier and his Mom saw and said “ uhh what are you watching I thought you normally watched true crime stuff?” She doesn’t really go on RUclips much and it seemed like she hadn’t heard about Reddit so I gave her a short TLDR lol they both said y’all sound interesting but they are both very specific with what they watch and it’s mostly stuff on like tv channels and things like that.
That is Not a Poly relationship. A poly relationship would have involved bringing the other woman in. This is just an OPEN RELATIONSHIP. These are 2 Very different situations.
I'm single. So it's all good 😅
Okay, Rilee. I can honestly say all this time listening to ya'll, I'm not in love with any of you. Admiration, maybe. But like, a friendly admiration.
Nope. You have to make a choice. Her or me.
I ran over here ! ❤
