Summary

Jared is back from Australia and jet lagged!😴 He's live from the West Village diving into emails from listeners tackling love, regrets, and the future of relationships.

First, a listener shares a jaw-dropping story about an ex who blindsided her with a breakup—only to resurface years later in the middle of a bitter divorce, admitting he made a huge mistake. Did she dodge a bullet, or is this karma coming full circle?

Then, another listener questions where her relationship is headed after nearly two years of dating. Her boyfriend has never initiated conversations about the future, and now she’s wondering—are they just too different, or is she overthinking it? Jared gives his take on communication, commitment, and whether men really do just “wait for everything to happen.” Feather feather, let’s dive in!
