Super ironic that the sister told OP about the infidelity to prevent her from marrying a cheater, then went and married said cheater herself💀
Watch him cheat on her too 😂
@@leslierivera742 oh he 100% will! how you get them is how you lose them🤷♀️
“If they do it with you, they’ll do it to you!”

@@sjrogala7904hey always see once a cheater always a cheater 😅
Lots of respect to OP in story #1. More dads should be like that!
1000%
@@soccersinger101p😮
Idk why I read “lost” not “lots”😅. 💯 % he did great
He was amazing! Every kid should have a dad like that
Completely agree, whilst I was in my twenties when my dad remarried this is what happened. Wasn't involved in the wedding, almost wasn't in the photos, was sent away early from the photos, l was not at a family table and over the course of the first year of their marriage there's now no relationship with my father...
So much respect for the dad in this story, good man!! 👍🏻
The first story made me so mad I almost cried. Being a step parent isn't for everybody. But if you can't handle it, don't take it out on the kiddo 🥺 ughhh selfish girl
I was 1 of only 3 guests at my dad & stepmom's wedding. They're divorced now but our relationship has never changed, she will always be my mom & I'm so grateful.
At my tiny wedding with my husband not only did I make vows for my husband I made a custom one for my step son too, who was only 3 at the time. It was the most meanful thing I had planned and told nobody ahead of time but I promised I'd always be the best bonus mom I can be. And the best part was it felt like my little man understood me well enough. And gave me hugs in the middle of it. I can't imagine excluding him. When I took my husband I took my step son too. It made me so mad someone could think that you can remove a piece of your spouse cause that's what a child is
I could not agree more I have two beautiful bonus babies as well as having a son of my own. They were all in my wadding and I could not have imagined it any other way.
Cheating Sister story- She didn’t tell her out of guilt, that was just the self righteous excuse to separate them so she could “win” the cheating BF and have her way.
The thing that makes her NTA to me in story 3 is that she didnt go out of her way to do it. She tried to avoid her sister and her family manipulated her into coming. Its their fault it even happened.
RIGHT she needs to go LC with her over stepping ass mom
This!!
@@ZindyMagallon😊
For Story 5 - honestly she needs to go to the police with his phone.... This is absolutely disgusting and he is a predator. I am horrified, I hope she can also get mental help for this and has a good support system.
What’s worse is that other people will have to see these videos… she would be struggling with that all on its own. S
Completely agree with you … this story was triggering for me because my ex who I was with for 2 years did this to me a few times when I was drunk and filmed it once (I kicked him out the next morning when I realized what he had done). I only knew what had happened because I vaguely remembered a bright light shining in my eyes. So violating and disturbing. It’s hard to acknowledge the fact someone you cared for and trusted would do that to you… that they would put aside your dignity for their own selfish desires. So for him to do that for A YEAR!! He needs to go to jail.
@@brynwilson8032 I am so sorry that you experienced something so awful. I hope you are doing better - you deserve to be happy and should have never had to go through this!! People like the man in the story and your ex should be locked up…
Dude that story gave me the chills. Omg. Fuck this guy
Yeah my first thought was for her (if she was comfortable or wanted to) to send the videos to herself for evidence, if only to help/speed up divorce proceedings, or get a restraining order etc
What a disgusting pos her husband is
Story 5: HOLY SHIT that’s 100% sa and needs to be reported to the police. I am also “sex repulsed” it stems from trauma and abuse from when I was a child. My partner of 8years is almost the complete opposite and also loves having videos/photos. But we talk it out, he makes compromises for me and vice versa so every encounter is consensual and enjoyable. He has NEVER even so much as tried to make a move on me when I’m impaired let alone unconscious. This is a horrific situation and he needs to be held CRIMINALLY responsible.
Right? She clearly indicated both marital rape and sexual coercion. She needs to press charges for 𝙗𝙤𝙩𝙝.
😢
We missed you Lauren ❤!!! Also thank you Morgan for always reading the comments and listening to feedback. For me the poop stories are funny but the incest stories literally give me chills and make me feel sick 😮💨😮💨, either way tho im listening to every epsiode 😊
Same! The poop was never huge issue for me, it was the incest. But she has & will not lose a listener! She’s my favorite podcast
Right? Between the poop and the incest I couldn’t do it-
Agree 💯% (lol I'm old, so I gotta have the percent sign to really show meaning!)
Yeah they were both too much for me. I don’t find poop funny. But yes love that she listens to feedback
First story: he needs to call off the wedding. If you love your kid, you’ll put how people treat them as a priority. And on this path his wife’s family is on, they're always going to leave his kid out of things which is a traumatizing feeling for a kid.
Girlie is speaking from experience 😂✌🏽
same!! my dad was convinced by my stepmom to not invite me to the ceremony and only to the reception afterwards. there are no photos of me from the wedding and i was the only person from his side of the family to be there. i will never be able to forgive him for this and it is a point of contention between us forsure
@@michelleb1433that's terrible! If you don't mind me asking, how long ago was that and how old were you at the time?
@@LaunchPadMcQuack4Hire that's okay! i don't mind. it was about 14 years ago and i was 11 at the time so it didn't register what truly went down until much later in life.
Story 1 Update :
Hello everyone! Thank you for all the kind comments and suggestions for Hawaii we a few days ago and P is already having a ton of fun. If you have any cool suggestions please drop them in the comments.
As for my ex-fiancée she has tried to reach out to me wanting to work everything out saying she only did it because her mom wanted “pure” grandchildren. I still do not care, if she really loved my daughter and I she wouldn’t have acted on her mothers wishes. S has called my workplace to try and get in touch with me, she has even shown up a few times to try and talk to me and I’ve told my supervisor to just ask her to leave. She has gone as far as messaging my ex wife a few times wanting to know why her calls won’t go through to me.
When she caught wind that we were in Hawaii she was pissed. I’m still close with her brother,and he told me that her and her mom were going to try and get plane tickets. If that’s the case I will likely file a restraining order. P has asked what happened to S and I told her that we come as a package deal and S only wanted me and I couldn’t leave her. P understood but I think she was a little heartbroken. I know this update is small but it’s all I have for those asking.
Ur a great dad❤
The "package deal" part legit makes me tear up, that is so sweet
Kudos to you!! You literally did exactly what you should have in my eyes.. blows my mind she wanted you to actually do that!! What a crazy person!!
i love laurens eps sm she’s so me, i love how she’s so logical yet empathetic in her thinking, and her reasoning with mentioning both sides of giving the A holes the ‘benefit of the doubt’ or saying they truly meant to be malicious using examples. love u lauren just wanted to give ya some appreciation 🫶🏼
I love you 🥺
Love Lauren too❤
Commenting because my dog Bear, who is a 16 year old chow chow-German shepherd mix, was diagnosed with oral cancer recently. They told us that he maybe has 6 months left. Your story about your Bear made me cry because I know that I'm going to feel that soon. He still plays at his age and doesn't seem to notice his cancer yet. It's gonna hurt when the time comes.
I’m sorry 😢
I'm so sorry you're going through that 💕 I had my Shepard/Chow for 16 years. It's never long enough and it hurts a lot, but it is amazing to get them for that long. All the best to you both.
Lost my kitty to oral cancer a year and a half ago, they gave her 2-6 months, and due to other health issues it ended up being 2 months. We chose not to do chemo as it just wasn't worth the trauma for the kitty for a cancer that has pretty much a 100% return rate. So sorry for your pain, I understand
i hope he can live out the happiest 6 months with you ❤
I’m so sorry about your pup. I have a senior dog too, and my family had to say goodbye to another dog with terminal cancer. It sucks. I hope you and your pup get to spend these next few months together filled with so much love!!!
Story 5 has me all screwed up. I'm horrified for this woman. It's disgusting that her husband, someone you are supposed to be able to trust unconditionally could or would do that while she sleeps. That's heart breaking. I would pretend everything was okay to get the pictures off his phone and then I would tell him we were doneeeeee. Ew
For Lauren: "And her snotty little family all dressed in pastels!" Immediately popped in my head when you said the family reminded you of a Taylor Swift song.
Same! I was like 'I know the song!!!' Lol
Immediately came to mind!
yeah I immediately said “don’t say yes run away now”
Same!! Second she said a Taylor swift song
story three: a similar thing happened to me. i was dating a guy for a couple months and then i found out he and my sister were LIVING TOGETHER and i cut them both off. after two years i started talking to my sister again and then she shortly became pregnant. she wanted to get married before she had the baby and i told her i would not be attending and she said “i guess it was only okay for us to be together if it wasn’t forever”. my mom told her it was never okay for them to be together and i just dealt with it because i missed my sister. the baby is now three, my sisters bf (my ex) lost his job a couple months ago because of attendance and he told my sister he was going to just wait for her to get her promotion so she can take care of him. karma is such a bitch
Story 4: I love my dogs with my whole entire heart, and I’ve had one die at a pretty old age, she could have lived longer, but the excitement in her eyes had died, she hardly ever got up, and was in constant pain, sometimes u have to ask yourself, do I want my pet to live for them, or for me💔
Speaking as someone who was abused by my stepmom after marriage the first story is heartbreaking. Major MAJOR props to the dad for being a great advocate for his daughter. So much rarer than you think in these circumstances.
I have been loving the absolutely crazy stories lately. The episode with Cris Klemmins was the most ive laughed in a long time.
Sad part about story 1 is how common it is & the dad agrees to stop seeing his kids 😔🤦🏻♀️
Story 3: they never learn. How you enter the relationship is how they will leave you.
For story three. My partner offered this saying when I ruined an event for an ex/abuser. “It was valid, even if it wasn’t righteous”. Her actions were 100% valid, not righteous, but if they brought her peace, it’s more than worth it.
Story 1, to this Dad: RUN!!! It's only gonna get worse. I wasn't invited to my father's wedding most likely because his wife didn't want me there and it only got worse. Now 12 years of not speaking to any of them. I healed and moved on from their drama
Same thing happened to me. I wasn’t even told that my dad was getting married. I wasn’t even told when my first half sister was born or even that she was pregnant. I haven’t spoken to my dad in over 20 years. I’m 52 now and had an amazing step dad since my teen years. He sadly passed away a few years ago. I do not wish ill will on my birth father and his family. I feel nothing towards him
Hi Morgan I’m a long time listener and I love the podcast. It’s also really nice to Lauren again.
I have a topic suggestion for a future episode if you’re interested, it would be ‘Missed The Mark/Dropping The Ball’, you’d gather some stories where you think Reddit gave an Op the wrong verdict on aita, or just some bad advice in general.
I got this idea from a story I recently heard, where an Op was afraid of reconnecting with the father of her daughter. Op listed all her fears, but was YTA into oblivion and decided to listen to the verdict and reconnected, it went awfully and everything Op was worried about happened. However after Op updated and told Reddit what happened, Reddit shamed Op again for listening to them.
This is a good idea for an episode. WOW! That is horrific and a prime example of how toxic reddit can be. I hope the OP will recover from this.
I think an episode about near misses is important to do to put Reddit into perspective for people and show that the advice isn't always correct nor is always helpful to go in that platform as people can be SO TOXIC.
OMG THIS NEEDS TO BE A LEGITIMATE THING! this idea is sooo good, y'all, we need to let morgan HEAR. THIS. 🗣️👏
Last story. So I'm Filipino and whenever my husband and I visit my side they always expect us to have multiple plates of food. I can always see the disappointment on their faces whenever I refuse because I'm full from the last plate. Without fail, though, some grandma or auntie comments on how much weight I've gained. I remember being 2 or 3 months postpartum with our 2nd kid and my grandma tells me how plump I've gotten. Uh, yeah, I just pushed a melon out my vagina 60 days ago?!
So they want you to eat a shit ton of food yet talk shit about your weight? Do they even hear themselves? That's probably the most hypocritical shit I've ever heard of. You should put your foot down though. Even if they get mad. Nobody deserves that. & congrats on your baby. ❤
Same with my trinidadian and indian family, except they want us to be overweight and shame us for losing weight 😢
how do people expect you to or even force some people into eating MULTIPLE plates worth of food and then nag theyre gaining weight 💀💀
@@sparklytea222 This is the first I have heard of this! Normally "aunties" be shaming for gaining weight! They seem to comment on "losing weight" if the person already looks thin!
@@sparklytea222so true as an Indian who is skinny .....ufff
MORGAN TALKING ABOUT HER GERMAN SHEPHERD AND ME STARING AT MY 1.5 YEAR OLD GERMAN SHEPHERD ALREADY COUNTING THE YEARS I HAVE LEFT LMAO
I'm 35 weeks pregnant and literally cry almost every day when I look at my (almost) 9 year old G.S 😂😅 I'm in complete denial
Story 6: this is def a cultural thing that happens among a lot of cultures like Mexican too. My ants would over feed me when I was a kid, because love is shown thru food and they want you to be healthy and strong. At least that is their reasoning, it comes from a place of love, but is is misplaced. It has caused me to overeat all my life, because I thought this is what is normal.
My inlaws are Italian and they laugh at how small my portion sizes are. They also laugh at how small my clothes are... It could be jealousy as well.
My moms Mexican and I imminently thought the same thing. It’s a cultural love language.
I came to the comments for this, I as a Native American have always been taught to never reject food as well. It’s considered disrespectful when you’re invited to someone’s home and they offer you food, that you don’t take any. However my family has never been weird about the portion sizes. Could just be mine. But even at family events everyone is sent home with food! Not sure of their background, my ex is Mexican and their family always sent us home with a ton of food as well.
THIS my family is puerto rican mostly (there are other spanish cultures there too) and my mom overfed us when we were little (and even today) and when i would get a smaller portion she would tell me that im eating barely anything! i was a healthy weight in 5th grade and she said i looked really skinny n needed to eat more 😭 definitely love but not super healthy though
For story #1, like she knew that 11 yr old since she was 6… can’t even imagine being anything but loving and caring towards someone I’ve known since they were that age.
That first story got my 🩸 boiling as someone who was verbally and emotionally abused by a step parent from 3-13. My mom never chose her kids but always chose men to be with so I’m glad P’s dad did the right thing by having her back. PS: missed you Lauren! Happy to see your beautiful face 🫶
Story 5: I had an ex that did that to me and he just made fun of me and said I was so cute when I cried that I felt violated. He told me he did it all the time like it was no big deal and I was so upset. I feel sick whenever I think about it.
I'm so sorry that happened to you 💛
@@kaelistellings2246 Thank you. I am just glad I’m not with him.
Ew what is the matter with some men?! 😩. I’m so sorry
Story 2: Pregnancy, I audibly gasped while listening to, poor Alice. There's a huge difference between making a joke about losing extra money because it's going to baby stuff vs joking about getting rid of a clearly very wanted baby.
Story 6: Food, since moving out of my family home and going through gallbladder removal surgery, I have started to reeducate myself on food. My family on the other hand shows love through food, which means constantly having to reinforce that I'm full or that I'm not able to eat something high in fat whenever I visit. That being said OP's gf has to be the one to tell her family to back off of OP's eating.
Story 2
That comment was out of pocket. What an ahole.
“When I’m bursting out of my mommas v@gina” made me cackle way too hard 😭
I had a childfree friend make similar comments when I announced I was pregnant. My husband and I were trying 3-4 yrs (and have had several losses).... Then me being extremely hormonal, sensitive, anxiety riddled.... I effin snapped on that person. The references of my baby being a "crotch goblin" or "crotch fruit".... Yeah, it's been 4 yrs and I still haven't spoken to that person.... And I don't miss them at all lol.
In a way to protect myself, my son wasn't "real" to me until he was in my arms.
When I was pregnant, it was almost a free for all for ppl to make inappropriate remarks, "you're huge. You sure you still have 4 months to go? Twins in there?" Mind you, I'm 4'11".... 5lbs on my frame makes a huge difference. I used to crave smoothies (had HG and they stayed down).... The cashier there was awful... One day I burst into tears about her commenting on my size. To my surprise, a guy behind me stuck up for me *and* reported her to the manager. That man is my hero.
Lots of love to you girlies 💞💕
--Klarissa (a fellow Minnesotan 💓)
Wow that’s insane. My generation calling babies “crotch goblins” and “crotch fruit” is rlly toxic. This generation demonized babies/children and it’s gone too far. Im child free and even I realize it’s not okay. I’m sorry you had to deal with that.
Yeah, making remarks like that is so over the line and disrespectful. Sorry you had to deal with that.
Back when the Duggar’s were on television it was common for people to act disgusted when someone had more than two kids. I always thought was so rude. Every child is a blessing.
i'm childfree and to be honest i use words like crotch goblin etc. sometimes BUT only when i'm talking with other childfree people in a joking way in regards of situations were a child acted out like throwing everything in a supermarket out of the shelves to the ground, hitting animals etc., i'd never do this when i don't know if someone likes kids and especially not infront of someone who wants kids or has one.
i'd never judge people for wanting to have kids, it's just not for me and although they annoy me i would never treat a child badly or don't value them as a human being, it breaks my heart when i hear of things like child abuse, neglect and stuff like that, like everyone who has empathy should no matter if the want/like children or not.
and especially as a childfree person you experience getting judged for your reproductive choices, so you know how that feels, so i don't get why anyone would do that to someone else.
if a friend of mine would want a child i'd 100% support them in this choice and would be so happy for them if it works out to get pregnant or adopting!
i'm sorry that you had a "friend" like that and i'm proud of you for standing up for you and your child and cutting them out of your life ❤️ i'm sure you're a great parent ☺️
(sry for mistakes, english isn't my first language)
@@technobrain666 your English is better than most of us. I enjoyed reading your thoughts. ♥️
“And her snotty little family all dressed in pastel” hahaha I knew exactly what Lauren was thinking and I did appreciate it
I was in a relationship with a guy for 4 years, he is Filipino and his family was very similar to the family in the last story. We would get together multiple times a month for a big family meal and his grandmother would always comment on my weight, how much i would/wouldn’t eat, etc.
I was really overweight when I was younger and worked really really hard to lose all the weight to be thin and fit, so i watched what I would eat to keep that figure. His grandmother would always comment on me not eating very much she’d say “honey you eat like a bird, you need to eat more you’re so skinny”
If i would finish my plate, she would offer to give me more and I’d say no thank you I’m full the food was amazing and she would get offended. If i didn’t finish my plate she would comment that i need to eat more.
So uncomfortable and needless to say his family was very happy when we broke up 🙃😅
Thats so hypocritical. They dont know they're demanding the impossible.
@@hippychick420 the worst part is my boyfriend never said anything or stood up for me. He just sat there with his mouth shut 👍🏼 calling me “so skinny” after being called fat my whole life… can i just never be good enough??
I’ve gotten over this now. I’m married with a beautiful daughter and my husband loves me no matter what i look like. But that story was very triggering of my past lol not in a bad way just brought up memories i haven’t thought about in a long time.
so strange people will expect/force/guilt trip people to eat multiple plates of food but then nag theyre gaining "too much weight," and once you watch how much you eat, they nag that youre getting "too thin" and "need to eat more." like pick a side 💀💀
Lauren episodes are my favorite! She always tries to see both sides, but when she really feels a certain way, she has the best responses! GLAD YOU ARE BACK, LAUREN! 😊
You’re the best 🥲
story 4 hit me. two years ago our 14 year old shih tzu developed a prostate tumor that blocked his urinary tract. it was inoperable and the vet recommended that chemo would be too painful and inneffective. once my mom saw blood on his walks, she knew it was time. it was so hard, and i still miss him. our animals do more for us than we realize but sometimes we have to let them go 💖
Unfortunately my dad isn't like dad number 1. So proud of him for making the right decision. I wish more parents were like this
Officially changing "birthday" to "burstday" is every conversation
Story 4 is so ironic because when it was posted, I read it to my friend 4 hours after it was posted. To think we were possibly reading it at the same time is wild! 😭❤
Story 4... Just wanted to say I'm sorry for the loss of Bear and I totally know what Morgan means when she said her brother hasn't been the same since. Our German Shepherd Lucy had lymphoma and we went from diagnosis to euthanasia in three days. It was rough on all of us, but my husband really struggled with losing her. My youngest son still talks about her and draws her. He's 9 now and was 6 at the time.
Story 2: This made me cry. My husband and I have been trying for 2 years. I got pregnant in February and was so excited, I miscarried 2 months later. I felt so defeated. Idk how her friend maintained her composure. I know I would have lost my shit with a comment like that. 😡😥
I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️
Story 5 is beyond disturbing and disgusting! I’ve unfortunately had people try to film me as well and I caught it thankfully. Also had someone rape me while asleep. I know it sounds odd but you can be passed out hard and not really know what is happening until you wake up. It’s sickening and unforgivable. She needs to go to the police and have him charged and divorce of course! I hope she can heal from this ❤️
Nice to see Lauren again. I missed her!
I miss you all!!! 🥹🥹🩷🩷
For the asexual story- it really hit home for me. Pretty much the exact situation I’m in minus the disgusting partner and SA. I’m physically repulsed by sex to an extent that I cannot control. My partner has a much higher libido. This does cause us some frustrations but finding another asexual partner is not as easy as it seems. Especially since most asexuals aren’t sex repulsed like me. My partner and I have a deep connection but the fear of being alone forever in a world that is obsessed with sex is not worth giving up someone who loves me unconditionally. Now this is NO WHERE near what OP is experiencing. She needs to leave that man immediately. As a sex repulsed asexual what her husband has done is disgusting beyond words. That man needs to be in prison
second story got me teary eyed, the way Alice must've been so relieved to finally feel safe enough to tell her friends, I can only imagine how excited she was to be able to say "I AM PREGNANT", and to have that moment of relief tainted by SUCH an offensive comment. oh. my. god.
Maybe I'm bitter ou whatever, but I wouldn't forgive op
Awww I love everyone but Lauren is my ultimate favorite, I'm glad she's back!!
I'm telling Alejandra you said that. 😁
HAHA I love you. You are a real one
I'm so early!! Hope everyone is doing well ❤
Same. 😂. Same you you❤
Good morning
“Come on Morgyyyy early upload Y E S”
The 5th story shocked me to my core. I’m so incredibly sorry to hear that your husband is doing this to you. Best of luck in your pursuit of a lawyer and approaching the police. It’s important to remember this is something that he will do again either to you, or to someone else. This man is a r*pist. I’m concerned about whether or not he’s keeping the videos just to himself or if he’s sharing them with anyone else/websites.
Yayyy Lauren is back!! Please do an episode with her and Alejandra soon! 😊😊
Story 4 - I agree so highly you should be there with your pet if you are going to put them down! My cat got an illness in her leg and was in agony, so we had to rush her to the vets in the middle of the biggest lockdown. The saddest bit was she knew how badly she needed help as she walked straight into her carrier when she'd normally run from it. We never saw her after we dropped her off or got to say a real good bye as they wouldn't let us in for her to be put down, and the fact she was alone in a big scary vets room with strangers makes me upset even 3 years later.
Take a shot every time Lauren says "you know what I mean?" LOL love episodes with her
she says it like youknowwhatimeann?? i love it 😂
I just had to put my 5 year old cat down after a fight with liver failure, we tried everything we could while still being financially sensible and we stayed with her during AND after she had passed to make sure idk, her soul was sure of all the love we had for her. We woke up the next morning to a beautiful flower that had been waiting for over a week to open. They know, and they will let you know. Be there for your pets ❤️
I need an episode with Alejandra and Lauren, even if it only for 1 story, love you all ❤
Story 2- getting super personal here. I had an ectopic pregnancy in November. My husband and I have been trying for years to have a baby and have not gotten anywhere. When I found out I was pregnant, we were over the moon. I started making registries literally within the week I found out and we started talking about room set ups and my diet (not meaning I would go on a fasting or anything but I'm a big girl, so I had a chance this could be high risk so I needed to be cautious of what I would be eating). And then I went to my 1st doctor's appointment and she managed to get me in for blood work and to get an ultrasound. I was so nervous and excited until my blood work came back. I had to go to the hospital on Thanksgiving. The day we were going to announce to his parents was the day to find out, and I had to stop my baby's growth. Words can not describe the amount of heartbreak I felt that I couldn't do anything to save my baby. And what was worse is that my tube still ruptured, and I had to go for emergency surgery.
If I ever had a friend ever make this kind of joke, they knew what I've been through, they would be dead to me. End of discussion.
If OP can't think before she speaks, she doesn't deserve her friend.
Especially since OP’s friend was trying to get pregnant. Such an inappropriate joke!
Also, I’m so sorry to hear about your experience. I’m sure it was very hard.
@emily-wb4fv it was. Just been taking it a day at a time. & that's what I'm saying! She clearly planned to tell you guys this exciting news, read the room and think about it Jesus!
I love seeing a good co- parenting family! My oldest daughter just turned 18 a couple weeks ago, and her father and his new wife and me and my hubby are all so close, we hang out without her all the time 😂. She was an only child for 13 yrs, until we both remarried and each had two more children (she's got 3 little sisters and 1 little brother, all 6 and younger) so our kids are all best friends and just love each other so much. We hang out almost daily with them, and my kids and their kids call each other cousins, but they know they all share a big sister 😂😂 we love it ❤❤
This is so wholesome ❤
This is amazing!! I wish all families were like that! I’m sure the holidays are SO FUN!!! Kids literally make holidays so amazing!
So sweet of Morgan to mention how we talk to ED sufferers/survivors. It’s best to avoid any body reference because it just confirms that’s what people are thinking about when they see us. Even if you say we look “healthy” etc it just confirms importance of body image and food! Thank you Morgan💗💗💗
The end of the first story where you guys are talking about Laurens childhood best friends - me and my husband (ex) are recently divorced and he moved 4 doors away, we still have board game nights and go to the park together and we're planning our oldest birthday together for August. We're 5 months in and we never let the kids the pain we're going through, we describe ourselves as a circle and someday maybe someone else will step in that circle and join us.. but noone will ever step away from the circle that makes us family 💜🙏 (just thought it was so identical to our story had to share!)
laurens dirty ass socks are KILLING ME😂
They are sadly stained that color after the first use 😂😭
Watching my boxer lose the light in her eyes as she went to sleep was the hardest thing ive had to do. But she was wagging till the very last minute. I told her shes going on an adventure and she licked my face. Only 8 years old. She had aggressive cancer and there was no way to save her. She cpuldve lived another few months but she wouldve been in pain and the tumors were growing so rapidly. Little miss padme.
He owes that dog peace.
Sometimes the best thing we can do for our dogs is be there through their very last breath and be glad we had them in our life for the short time we did
Yeah we just had to put my cat down and I was having a hard time making the "right choice" a constant state of what ifs. But when I was told that she was in pain I knew my choice was made.
What an adorable name, I'm heartbroken for you 💕
“It seems that I was uninvited by your lovely bride to be!” That’s the part of the song I was thinking of 🤪 from Speak now Tv
Story #4: Losing a pet is so hard, but ultimately, you do have to think of their quality of life. My 10.5 yr old Great Dane passed 6 mo ago. It was the hardest thing I've ever had to do to give that okay to let him go. We get to see them from babies to seniors, and I'm so grateful to have witnessed his life.
Oh, and to Morgan's point, be with your animal when they pass. They really do realize when you're not there and they need you.
Yeah, they should definitely be there, when they pass away. I'm still sad I couldn't be there for my cat, since we were away from home at the time and it would be wrong to keep it alive and in pain until we could come home (was a house cat about 17 years old, so very old).
My 11 year old Great Dane passed this time last year. It's sad big dogs have such short lifespans ☹️ RIP
Story # 5: contact your trusted family members/friends, file a police report, provide evidence while filing. Consult a divorce lawyer, file for divorce. Consult a therapist. All these steps take so much time and effort and I’m so sorry that the oweness is on you to do it when you’re already going through enough. You are loved and supported. Bless.
Sorry this is irrelevant, but i thought I’d tell you it’s onus! Very interesting that it sounds exactly like oweness, and that oweness makes sense! But it’s latin, onus.
Your comment is really good btw, 100% agree!
@@caffe1n8ed omfg I am so embarrassed! Thank you for correcting me. Shows how important it is for me to get back into reading haha
I just lost my job and I have no idea what is next for me. I don’t know how I’ll take care of myself and my partner who is out of work right now for medical issues. But listening to this episode made me feel better about my situation. Because honestly…we both might be unemployed…but at least he didn’t sleep with and propose to my sister 😅
Story 5: my ex did this to me and I woke up during it. I also took a heavy sedative, and to this day I am hesitant to sleep next to my loving boyfriend who wouldn’t do anything like that. It took me months to come to leave my ex and even longer to come to terms with what happened.
I'm loving the new set! So cozy! And Hi Lauren! Good to have you back!!
drinking game: take a sip every time lauren says “you know what I mean”
Lauren, I know the song Speak Now and I love it.
Taylor even had a cameo in New Girl where she was a girl who ran away with the groom, because he did not want an arranged marriage with Cece.
“Yes we love when people have times”
I love you Lauren 😂 good to have you back!! ❤
story 5 is my biggest fear. i am also a sex repulsed asexual and deeply fear having unwanted sexual contact and having to please someone to keep them in my life. i hope op gets justice and finds peace.
Morgan the last story just reminded me of my mom. She always cooks so much food and obviously raised us eating a lot of fried food, bread and meat that almost all of us struggle with weight. Like I can’t leave any food on my plate my brain will just tell me that I have to eat it all. But also she always makes comments about get in shape you gain weight and one time she asked me infront of everyone if I was pregnant 😅
I’m Ace and story five is a new fear unlocked. I’m already insecure that I won’t be able to maintain a relationship because I have no urge to have sex and this is a new horrifying pitfall I had never considered
My baby daddy’s girlfriend pushed him to have a relationship with his daughter but then flipped the script and tried controlling when he see her. Luckily they didn’t work out and now he is with a good relationship who adores my daughter. It makes coparenting so much easier.
I LOVE THISS gosh you are amazing my parents were not able to get along after the divorce and it made everything horrible. you are amazing for developing a trusting and happy coparenting relationship !
#5 I was in a similar situation, my medications knocked me out, it happened for 4.5 years and after we broke up I couldn’t date or stay over anywhere or even have anyone over. Thankfully I talked to my psychiatrist and therapist and we did change my medications around.
Happy lauren is back! I LOVE the crazy stories, whether gross or scary or kidnapping ones lol. They make it more interesting, and more exciting to watch. :)
I realize my comment may have made it seem as tho the others aren’t exciting to watch lol. THEY ARE. I love all of them I just love wild convos
absolutely ADORE lauren. and i love morgan and lauren episodes the most ❤ you can tell lauren is such a sweet soul. you don’t give yourself enough credit girl, if you want to relate everything to taylor swift then so be it sis 😂
Knowing what all happened, I can imagine that after OP ruined the sister's gender reveal, most of the guests just thought "fair enough".
I know the Speak Now song! I always get shocked that alot of people don't know it 😂 . That first story made me so mad. You always include the kids before you pick anyone else in my opinion!! ♡ edit: did not see the update after posted this i hate that woman holiday only dad! Hate women who are like this.
YAY!! I love your podcast Morgan!! Best way to start my morning 🎉🎉
this is the earliest ive been and i couldn't be happier!!! needed this to survive the day at work thank you so much
That dad deserves true love
I had to put my 16 year old cat down because she had a hernia. I felt the same way about, oh i could do the surgery, but it may not work and might just make her suffer more. But then after and even still now I think "Maybe i should have tried the surgery...."
I am furious about the SA story, especially as an ace person. She might be asexual and she is even indulging in what he wants but no! This piece of crap decides to take advantage of her in a vulnerable state instead of moving on to a partner that could give him the satisfaction. But I know he probably enjoys it
Yeah I'm pretty sure it's about control, not sex, as most/all SA is. This guy deserves the electric chair imo, what a pos
In story 1 when you're talking about the divorce and co-parenting, I think that's also what "for better or for worse" means - not just during the relationship and the good times but during the /worst/ outcome where you separate you still act with grace and love
I look forward to this post every week 💛 It is my favorite day of the week and it’s even better if it’s Lauren!! Love her commentary, it complements Morgan’s so well. 🥂💛
I relate to the last story so much. I was immediately reminded of my Portuguese family. It's tough, because it is so ingrained in the culture, but they really do have problematic and harmful practices/views surrounding food. I do what OP does--eat a little bit of almost everything and take the rest home. Girlfriend has to put her foot down with her parents. I wish them luck!
I love Lauren, she’s such an amazing energy. So happy to see you two ❤️❤️❤️ and of course Morgan is just the best
Everytime I see Lauren in the thumbnail I instantly click 😂 Love you Lauren!!!
Yay Lauren’s back!! I love her takes, I feel like she always says exactly what I’m thinking.
I just got hospitalised and you guys posted this vid just as I really needed some distraction, tysm ❤
Are you doing ok now? Hope you’re home and recovering. 🥹
I couldn’t love the new studio set up more! Congrats Morgan and co!
Happy to see Lauren back!!
So excited to see Lauren back!!
She should send all the videos and photos to herself and use it as evidence to file for rape charges.
For story #2: This is the exact reason I don’t have friends like that, they use “sarcasm/jokes” as an excuse to say rude/mean things and I am not about having insults/insensitivity like that in my life. Have known quite a few people who “joke” like that and it is my single biggest pet peeve
Yay we love Lauren
These insane stories lately feel so AMAZINGLY intense, even if I end up feeling sick and angry over certain aspects then I always stay for you and the beautiful guests!
I fr check everyday if you guys upload a new episode haha I can’t survive without listening to you😂
speak now!! i always wondered why she’s named the album after that song too! you’re thinking of the line “her snotty little family all dressed in pastels and she’s yelling at a bridesmaid somewhere back inside a room in a gown shaped like a pastry”
YES THANK YOU
The “what is a dogs arm called” killed me hahaha
I had to put down my first horse a couple months ago. I couldn't imagine being anywhere but right by his side as he passed from this earth. He was my best friend, my rock, and my partner in crime. It was one of the most traumatic things that's ever happened to me, and I wish more than anything in this world he was still alive. Story 4 pissed me off to no end. There needs to be a psych eval before getting a pet I swear.
