Speaker 1 (00:00):
It is time to do a show staple ladies ask
aka yeah, ask you guys. We do it every week
and you do it on My Life Cut the podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Yeah, we do it. It's one of our favorite segments.
You guys writing or call up with your biggest conundrum
of the week. We do our dundest to help you
solve it, and we have a very interesting one involving
an X.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Yes week, Jack joins us, Hi Jack, what's going on?
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Hey, guys, thank you so much for talking to me.
It's a bit, I mean, a bit of a pickle.
My boyfriend's birthday is coming up and he really wants
to go to a particular restaurant. He just wanted to
go to it for a long time, but unfortunately my
ex work's there.
Speaker 4 (00:38):
Pick another restaurant.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
Well, he knows that my ex work's there, but because
me and my X didn't necessarily end on like bad terms,
he kind of just saw it as like an inn
to get a reservation. And I want to treat him
well and make him feel special, but it's just kind
of awkward.
Speaker 4 (00:54):
Oh, I agree, I wouldn't want to. Can you not
message your ex if you're friends with him still? And
just check that he's not working. The night that you've
made the reservation.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
You want to start messaging your ex about your current
boyfriend's birthday.
Speaker 4 (01:05):
But you also don't want to sit there. Well, no,
because Jack just said that he used it to be
able to get the reservation. He saw it as an
easy inn. I just don't think just go.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
To another restaurant.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
I don't think you want to sit there and auder
your chicken parmesana and have your ex bring it over
and serve you. It's just going to be weird.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
If you love your new partner that much, you'll put
that aside and make them happy. Because I'm assuming this
is like a fancy restaurant, right Jack, This is a
restaurant it's hard to get into.
Speaker 3 (01:29):
Is that?
Speaker 1 (01:30):
Is that the whole bit?
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Yeah? Yeah, no, it's quite a fancy restaurant, like a
once a year kind of thing. And like, of course
that's why I think you can't deserve the nice treat
and I want to make him feel good, but like
it's just awkward enough. I have to message my ex
to us if he's working, I have to talk to him.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
But rubbish.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
But when you said that you were able to get
the booking. Your new boyfriend thought you could get the
booking because of your ex. So did you have to
text him for the booking in the first place, or
did you just call up the restaurant get the booking?
Speaker 3 (02:00):
Oh no, if I haven't even tried to make this
book it's a particular restaurant, and he wants me to
reach out to the X to kind of r so
we can get a booking.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
It almost sounds like it's a little bit of a
flex from your current boyfriend to be like, I want
to go with you it didn't work out with them.
I want to be like, look here we ask my birthday.
We're in love, like sucked in, and you have to
serve me while I'm with your ex. I don't like
it at all. I think it's unnecessary and I think
there are so many amazing places you can go if
you can say to your current partner, hey, look, I
(02:31):
want to make sure this is the best day for
you possible, but this isn't going to be a good
time for me if I have to go and see
my ex.
Speaker 4 (02:36):
The only thing you could do is if you have
to message your ex boyfriend anyway, you could do it
all in one fell swoop where you message him and
you say, hey, just wanting to book a reservation, but
also just want to check that you're not working that much.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
Guys, you're not messaging your ex. You can go into
a different restaurant.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
This is the end of the story. Or so toxic
man La. If you need help like that, you can
hit us up on the pickup socials. You can send
us a DM or you can send us a text

small one. Got a macis he's still on the line. Sorry, Jack,
Love you Jack? All right?
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Well, look coming up, I have every parent's worst nightmare sorted.

asked or you've got to think about whether or not
