E624 Ask Nick - Falling For My Prison Pe...

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 discuss what your favorite color says about your love life. Are you a wonderful lover? Or emotionally detached? We dive into all the colors of the rainbow and more. We also read a submission from someone who’s boyfriend still hasn’t said “I love you” after three years of dating. We then get to our callers. 

Our first caller is catching feelings for her prison pen pal. After coming across his videos on TikTok, they’ve been messaging and video-chatting for months. She now has the opportunity to visit him in-person in jail, and is wondering if she should follow through or not. Our second caller is worried she’ll get back together with her revenge situationship. Her ex-husband is getting re-married soon, and it looks like everything is going right for him. She’s anxious her jealousy and loneliness will drive her back into the arms of her toxic ex, and is wondering how to overcome these feelings. Our final callers are getting married in a month, and just had their matron of honor and best man dump them. The dumping seemingly came out of nowhere, and they’re not sure if they’re the problem or not.
