John, you're under arrest.

Oh, no, don't do it.

I'm an Ojioki Surtime podcast host. I don't care. I'm making sure that you stay here for the next two minutes. All right, I'll be detained for the two more minutes before we get into this episode. Yeah, we got some ads coming up, so stick around. Think around. This is an I-Heart podcast. Guaranteed human. My husband has been ignoring me, but giving my mother his full attention. Is he married to your mom? Didn't think so. Yeah. He struggles to listen to me at all, but when my mother in here are together, it's like I don't exist. Immediate red flag. Yeah, that's weird. He struggles to listen to you at all? Yeah, already. You lost me there. What? This has been an issue ever since he was first around her. She's very talkative and tends to talk people's ears off. For whatever reason, she zoned in on him, speaking more to him than she ever has to me. By the way, this comes from Professional Stick 363, and if you want to

1:00.7

irritated by it, or so he claimed, but he would still engage. He said he did so because she would

1:06.5

get upset if he didn't, which was and is still true. When he spoke to me for just a minute, she said that she was being ignored. I would get upset because I didn't speak much, and most of what I was saying was important. I felt like he couldn't tell her to hold on and prioritize what I was saying. I tried to ask him if he wanted me to order him something for dinner one time. I was running out of time to order, and he kept looking over and then looking back at her. He snapped that he couldn't talk to both of us at the same time. I said I felt like he was ignoring me. I was already upset over other things that had happened that day. When we got back to where we were staying, I asked if I could talk to him about it, doing so calmly, as he always said that I didn't do that. And that this was why it led to an argument. I don't like this guy.

1:46.5

No.

1:47.4

I... As he always said that I didn't do that and that this was why it led to an argument.

1:44.8

I don't like this guy.

1:46.5

No.

1:47.4

I really don't like this guy saying like, oh, you never do it calmly.

1:53.0

He's starting an argument.

1:54.5

Like, why are we with this man?

1:55.7

Like, which I guess could be true sometimes, but I don't know.

1:59.6

I don't buy it from him.

2:38.3

Feels off. Well, within seconds of me asking, he was yelling at me. Punting things and threatening divorce. Divorce this man. Yeah, just do it. Literally from the first sentence, divorce him. Yeah, we're like... We're on slide 12 out of 58 in this story. Divorce. We're already so against this man. There's nothing redeemable. I don't like him. When we were last here, I didn't say much, as usual. And whenever I did, he would get frustrated. He would say that he was overstimulated and couldn't talk to both of us at the same time, that he needed to be left alone. He's done the same on this current trip, though I am not the one causing his overstimulation. It seems he takes it out on me anyway. I struggle to believe he's experiencing it because a while back he said he was and that he had an headache, but then

2:43.7

immediately went back to speaking and joking with her. When I got upset and said that I felt

2:48.5

like he was unfairly taking it out on me that I wasn't

2:51.6

doing anything wrong, he acted like I didn't understand his overstimulation.

2:55.2

He refused to listen to me or acknowledge what I was saying.

2:57.7

When I said he gives most of his attention to my mother, he said, can I not choose how

and who I want to interact with?
