Summary
I'm joined by a woman who tells us about her partner asking to remove the "boyfriend/girlfriend" label just weeks after he asked her to be his girlfriend. We hear how his request fueled her insecurities, left her feeling confused, led her to feel like she had to play games to win him back, and ultimately resulted in a painful breakup.

| 0:43.7 | unfiltered. I'm anonymous and I'm here to talk about a relationship that was very short-lived |
| 0:51.5 | and it's ended before it really even started and it kind of was |
| 0:56.5 | backwards. I am really excited that you're here. I saw your email and actually one thing like |
| 1:04.3 | really stuck out to me in it and I know I think I responded to you about that in the email |

| 1:12.3 | and in your email you were like I don't even know if I can call it a relationship and that's |
