Summary

Resolution season is right around the corner, so Jordana and Naomi start the week with another intention-setting email from a listener who’s looking to find a more healthy narrative about why she’s single. They tell us why being single may not be as connected to attractiveness as you think, and why attraction is more subjective than any of us realize. Then another listener writes in to ask why her husband keeps asking her to do “Dry January” even though she’s made it clear that she doesn’t want to stop drinking for a whole month. Is this a veiled attempt to get her to curb her drinking, or is he simply unwilling to accept that she won’t go along with his every request? The Betchicist scenario involves a marital dispute over relocating to a warmer climate in the Winter, which necessitates lying about their dog being a service animal. Is this really about the animal, or an excuse from someone who doesn’t want to leave town in the first place? Finally, the Triggered scenarios involve a revelation about a friend who cheated, and another about not being allowed to ever be in a bad mood.
