Hey guys, this is the Highlander from the Titus podcast.

This episode is brought you by Butcherbox, Sunday.com, and Truff Hot Sauce.

And now here's Christopher Titus with the Armageddon Update.

I'm Christopher Titus, and this is the Armageddon update. Bad abusive relationships. How do they happen? Why do they last so long on how many emergency room visits? Does my insurance cover? Now, we've all been in bad relationships. There's just different levels to some people's bad relationships. You know, yeah, we just didn't hit it off, or yeah, well, he didn't like my family,

all the way up to, it's not his fault I don't listen.

And you could have told me you were gay nine years ago!

Shout out to the Highlander.

Bad relationships are the boot camp of emotions.

I am in a world of shit. One of life's barbed wire fences to be

climbed over and no one gets out unscathed. We all walk into the next relationship,

either full of new knowledge about how to be in love or full of

twisted revenge. Some who were abused became the abusers. And some who were abused become

statistics. The problem we all seem to have is leaving, you know, extracting yourself.

And let's be honest, why you can't leave, sex. A lot of relationships continue because we're afraid of being alone.

However, the most alone I ever felt was when I was married.

When you're alone, it's just you sitting in a room by yourself.

Well, just you in the voices.

When you're in a bad relationship, it's worse because someone else is actively

supercharging your loneliness and self-esteem destruction with an actual voice, telling you how

bad you suck and embezzling money from you so you divorce them. And then they lie about you

in court and lie to your kids about you and a new wife too.

Or so I hear.
