0:00.0	Thanks for listening to my call of the day podcast. You can hear my live radio program Monday through Friday from two to five p.m. Eastern time on Sirius XM.
0:10.0	Triumph 111. Dylan, welcome to the program.
0:14.0	Hi, Dr. Laura. It's a pleasure to speak with you. I've been a long time listener for about 20 years and I feel like I've just grown up listening to you and learning from so much from you.
0:23.0	Thank you. Thank you. Yeah, great. How can I help you today?
0:28.0	Well, I'm 31 years old and I've been married to my husband for five months. I'm so pretty much into the woods.

2:01.0	Six months, which is definitely not a good idea. It was definitely moved very quickly.
2:06.0	Nobody ever told you you don't know enough to make this decision with him. Nobody said that. Not your parents, not your friends.
2:15.0	My parents did say that.
2:25.0	And your experience with them the whole duration of your life is that they're stupid?
2:35.0	No, I just definitely made a decision that was immature.
2:42.0	And now I think I am kind of seeing that.
2:46.0	So at this point does it seem clear to you that this man was not a good choice?
