Summary

This Sunday Special is all about dating someone who may still be seeing their ex. A listener writes in with a question about a guy who has repeatedly asked for a date even though he seems to be back with his ex-girlfriend. Why would someone try so hard to get you invested in a relationship with them if they have something else going? The J’s go through her most recent text exchange with this guy and try to figure out whether or not he is aware that he’s being called out. Finally, they share the solution for dealing with guys who try to get away with treating you like a side chick. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

0:56.0	it's so much harder to like give your own spin that like is to one side. You know what I mean? Like
1:02.4	very like it's easy to paint someone really negatively, but then we see the receipts and I think
1:07.2	it's a little easier to get a better. There's nothing there's nothing better than a screenshot.

1:40.8	Yeah, I mean, as a person, I'm horrified about that also just given like you don't even think about
1:46.8	how dumb things sound until you reread them. Oh my god. That's why these are fun too because you
