He’s fallen in love with someone else…should I stay? Alex and Jon don’t have time for questions like this anymore…BUT they’re still going to answer them because they love you. In this week’s episode, we’re breaking up and breaking down relationships with exes, sister in-laws, and friends of over ten years. Sometimes the best advice is to just leave and other times…it’s to just go. There’s a difference, we promise.

87. Giving you drunk texts, sibling fights, and sharing locations

We’ve all sent a drunken text to an ex…but while you’re in a relationship? In this week’s episode, we’re discussing relationships in all forms: parental, friendly, and romantic. Every form matters but they all require different skills and Jon and Alex are here to help you navigate through each one. They’re still working on their relationships with Lucy…which seems mostly one sided since all she does it take…but she gives so much cuteness it doesn’t even matter.
