E547 Ask Nick - My Best Friends Won’t St...

Nick Viall
About this episode

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 feedback we got on a previous Ask Nick episode, and get our weekly Breakup Song of the Week submission. Our first caller has two friends that can’t stop hooking up, and is worried that they’ll end up heartbroken or awkward at her upcoming wedding. Our next caller is having a sex stand off with her husband, and wishes he would put more effort into initiating intimacy or “wooing” her. We discuss how she can lead by example and open up these vulnerable conversations with him. Our final caller is wondering if she should blow up her life to move out of her family’s house. After moving home following a break up and putting all of her savings into retirement funds, should she risk it all for independence?

“I don’t love that you’re considering taking a risk in a time of crisis.”
