Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We’re back to answer your burning questions about the world of dating and relationships. Before getting to our callers, we discuss the Jonah Hill situation and the trend of people weaponizing “therapy-speak” for their own benefit. We also get into a written Ask Nick topic where our caller talks about struggling to have a healthy relationship with her boyfriend’s family, with her partner putting pressure on her instead of stepping up. We then get to our callers. 

Our first caller is struggling to deal with her in-laws. After being with her now-husband for 9-years, she feels she knows his family incredibly well, and is frustrated that her father-in-law has been openly berating her. Our second caller’s boyfriend recently broke up with her over text, claiming he’s not ready for a real relationship. They said they’d check in throughout the summer and re-assess their relationship in a few months, and she’s wondering if she should wait around or move on. Our final caller’s long distance boyfriend recently told her he’s losing feelings for her. She still loves and respects him, but doesn’t feel as though she’s being made a priority and isn’t sure whether the relationship is salvageable after so much distance. 

“All this energy you’re using thinking about him is energy you’re taking away from yourself.”
