Ask Uncut - Donor Eggs, Keeping My Ex's ...

BRITTANY HOCKLEY AND LAURA BYRNE
About this episode

Hey guys and welcome back to your therapy Thursday where we answer all of your deep, dark and burning questions!
First up, we asked our partners what they would have called us on their sex list. Not sure if we are recommending this one or not to be honest!
Bachie has been canned and we will well and truly miss the beautiful tones of Osher's "ladies".

Vibes for the week:
Britt - Netflix The Roast of Tom Brady
Laura - The Daily - Sunday Special 'Modern Love' podcast ep
Keeshia - Pill Box from Dosey

Then we jump into your questions!

  • HE WANTS TO CHEAT WITH ME
    My husband and I travel frequently with another family who have children the same age. It started out as my husband and his friends but over time the wife has become one of, if not, my best friend. They live interstate but we talk most days. We are 2 weeks away from an international holiday with them, when he asks me in a private message if I was with my husband at the time, and to message back when I was alone. He asked if I would like to ‘hook up’ whilst overseas and at the same time said don’t say a word to them (meaning his wife and my husband). I actually asked if he was joking to which he replied “no, but now it’s awkward”. I brushed it off and politely declined. As I stand, it’s nearly 24 hours after the message. I am planning on telling my husband that we will need to rearrange our holiday and accommodation plans. She is going to know something has happened, so when she asks me why we are cancelling on them what do I say? If roles were reversed I would 100% want to know. We have always suspected he’s probably not 100% faithful to her but to make matters worse she is pregnant. I know the information is going to ruin her life.

  • PARTNER DOESN'T WANT ME TO DONATE MY EGGS TO MY BROTHER
    I have two older gay brothers. Since I was about 16 (I am now in my mid 20s) I’ve said that I would like to donate eggs in the future to them, so they can have biological kids with their partner. (I always figured since we look very similar and I don’t plan on having kids it would be a nice way to have biological children in the family). One of my brothers and his partner are ready to start the process to have kids. However, my partner of 2 years that I plan on marrying is very uncomfortable and does not agree with this decision. He sees that it will be my kid. I am not sure what to do. Do I listen to my partner's concerns and come to terms with not helping my brothers or follow through with this said promise? What are your thoughts? Am I crazy for offering and not seeing it as being my child?

     

  • IS IT OK TO KEEP EX HUSBANDS SURNAME
    My ex husband and I split a number of years ago and had one child together. I took his surname when we married. We have both since re-coupled and he is now engaged. This has made me wonder - is it time to change my name back? The problem is, I LOVE my current name and it feels like a bit part of who I am; personally and professionally. I also really love having the same surname as the child we happily co-parent. Is it weird if I just keep the name? My new partner and I also have a child together, and marriage will be on the cards one day but I don’t want to change my name multiple times… and I much prefer my current name 😅
