E637 Ask Nick - My Boyfriend’s Emotional...

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 how to navigate family photos with significant others. We also read a submission from someone whose boyfriend wants to take a trip to somewhere he’s gone with an ex. We debate recycling dates, trips, and activities with new relationships, and if it’s just ego getting in the way of doing so. We then get to our callers. 

Our first caller recently found out she’s pregnant, and is scared to tell her boyfriend, who’s moving home soon and also may be married. We help her craft a message to tell him. Our second caller’s friend is moving to another country soon, and she’s debating whether to tell him she has feelings. We encourage her to reach out and confess her feelings before it’s too late. Our final caller’s boyfriend was having an emotional affair with his cousin. We compose the perfect break-up text to end things. 

“You’re a Jedi Knight when it comes to avoiding.”
