Summary
I’m joined by a 30 year old woman who opens up about spending a year and a half in a tumultuous on again, off again situationship with someone she met at work. She shares how things went from being blissful to confusing overnight, and how she never knew which version of him she would get when she would walk into work or spend time with him. We hear how her friends expressed their concern, how he ruined her 28th birthday, and how she found out he was seeing someone else while they were together. She shares what her healing journey has looked like, the difficulties of trying to move forward while having to see the person everyday, and what she’d learned from going through this experience.

| 0:04.8 | Hey guys, it's Alana and you're listening to seeing other people unfiltered. |
| 0:09.9 | It's Thursday, so that means real-life daters are coming on to share their real, sometimes shocking, and always unfiltered experiences. |
| 0:17.9 | Think you're alone out there? |
| 0:19.0 | Think you're the only one whose ex hooked up with your mom or whose last date ended up being a catfish? Think again. Think you're alone out there. Think you're the only one whose ex hooked up with your |
| 0:21.2 | mom or whose last date ended up being a catfish. Think again. I'm anonymous. I'm 30 years old |
| 0:27.8 | from New York and I am here to talk about a really awful but transformative relationship that I was |
| 0:35.5 | in for about a year and a half. And I am excited to get |
| 0:40.4 | into it. I'm excited to have you. And I also love how you phrase that because I think most awful |
| 0:47.0 | dating and relationship experiences that we have are transformative. And I feel like whenever I talk to anyone about it, it's like, would we take it |
| 0:58.0 | back and not go through it? Like maybe not because of where we are now and how much it changed us. |
| 1:04.5 | And maybe your answer is different. We'll get to that. But I do think there is so much to be |

| 1:11.5 | difficult and coming out the other side so much stronger. Totally. I think would I go back and do it |
| 1:19.6 | again? Honestly, probably. I think there are a lot of things I would do differently, |
| 1:25.2 | knowing what I know now and being older and I guess just having, |
| 1:30.1 | you know, hindsight is 2020. |
| 1:32.8 | But I think I would probably do part of it again just because I learned so much and I know |
| 1:39.8 | what I want and what I don't want and also what I'm worth and things that happen where I know now |
| 1:49.2 | what my worth is. I'm able to kind of reevaluate and I'm able to kind of have more of a clear |
| 1:56.6 | vision of like, oops, nope, that's not for me. That's not what I want. Absolutely. We learn |
| 2:02.9 | like when to say no and what isn't right and that, okay, we don't have to keep pushing. |
