Alex Cooper
About this episode

Bonjour! Buckle up - we’re going to France. The classic dilemma, you fuck one person in a friend group and then you realize you want to fuck another…what do you do? Father Cooper is here with the answer. Let’s talk about texting, is it a red flag if a guy sucks at texting? Well, Alex’s boyfriend also is not an A+ texter and she’s here with advice speaking from personal experience. Work, sleep, repeat…how do we break the cycle? Making new friends is hard enough, but making new friends when you’re also in a serious relationship? Big Al is here to answer all of your questions and more. Alex gets vulnerable and discusses her experience navigating a one-sided friendship and how she reconnects with her partner when she notices that they are drifting apart.
