Thanks for listening to my call of the day podcast.

You can hear my live radio program Monday through Friday from 2 to 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Sirius XM Triumph 11.

Kevin, welcome to the program.

Hi, Dr. Laura.

Hi.

Hi.

I really respect your opinion.

Most of the time, I thought maybe it could help me with a very minor issue.

Okay.

So I'm widowed about four years now, and I've been in a relationship with another lady who's my same age for about a year.

And we live about two hours apart.

And it's always enjoyable seeing each other when we meet up to do fun stuff.

But she doesn't like the fact that I give her a call every day, check in, say hi, and how our days

went and so on. But sometimes it seems as though I get a little, I don't like talking on the

phone maybe as much as she does or uh wait a i just got confused whoa whoa

i just got confused you said she doesn't like to talk every day oh no she does she does like to talk

every day i'm the one that uh if we're talking on the phone for close to an hour i i seem to want to be

done with it already, you know,

and I think we can touch up our day in a half an hour or even less sometimes.

But she wants to explain the details of the day and, you know, when she's out working in the

yard and talks to her neighbor and this

and that and it's all kind of trivial stuff. Well, it's not trivial to her. It's her day.
