Speaker 1 (00:01):
It's Ashley ended jam in Morning Show with DJ Foreign
and Santi and.

Speaker 2 (00:05):
It's time for another DM dilemma. Hi everybody, good morning.
We do this little thing called DM dilemma. If you're
going through something in your life and you feel like
your family, friends, everyone's kind of too close to the
situation and you want outsider's opinion, we got you. You can
always DM me on Instagram at Ashley Feldman two. He's

(00:26):
on the Ashley A S H L E E F
E L D M A N. We could help you out.
This one is quick. I want to slap this person,
and I don't usually do that when we're helping people out,
but it's I. I didn't want to put this on
air because I fought with them a little bit and
he was like, please, can you just ask it? So

(00:46):
I will. But Anonymous wants to know he is breaking
up with his girlfriend. That's done. There's no he's he
is done. They have been together for four years. Here's
the part that's that's upsetting me. Do I call or
text her? So immediately wrote back and I was like, hey, man,

(01:07):
thanks for hitting me up. You do neither, you sit
her down and you tell her in person.

Speaker 3 (01:11):
He was like, no, well, hold on, why are we
breaking up?

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Though didn't get an answer. I didn't get nothing.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
It depends.

Speaker 4 (01:17):
Okay, so listen, if she's a crazy chick and she's clingy,
and she's all of these weird things, you want to
call that person down to sit them in front of her.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Dude, four years of somebody, that's all long. We have
to admit that is a long time. A caller text
is so disrespectful to that time that I gave and
we gave to this relationship. I literally said to him,
I was like, I'm not you have to do it
in person. And then he got a little bit attitude
with me.

Speaker 3 (01:43):
You got to look at it like you know what
I mean, like, what why are we breaking up?

Speaker 2 (01:47):
That?

Speaker 4 (01:47):
I think that plays a big part for the normal relationship. Yes,
you should sit down, you should have a conversation. This
ain't working out. But again, maybe this chick is gonna
go crazy. Maybe he's been trying to get away from
a toxic relationship and this is.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
The only way he can run away. Let's assume that
it's not that you.

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Want to four years and you're like, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Yeah, but I got laughing.

Speaker 5 (02:08):
How many people calling and be like, you're in a
toxic relationship and I can't get We've had some people
we've told you don't even talk to that man no more,
just leave him, like, don't answer his phone calls, pack
your bags and get out of here.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
I think the breakup.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
Weird, right that it's a guy.

Speaker 1 (02:26):
That's a guy I think to send the text and
not doing it in person.

Speaker 2 (02:29):
First off, I mean, I hope. I'm assuming we'll all
agree it has to be a call. If it's not
very if it is not going to be in person.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
I'm still standing on. It depends on the breakup.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
Yes, okay, everything is normal. It's just regular things and
we just grew apart.

Speaker 2 (02:50):
In four years. You've been with somebody. You're not gonna call,
You're gonna text. What does the text say it's over?
More than that it's over, it's over. Well, I'm telling
you know. It depends on the mode. If it was
me and the ex and my exxx.

Speaker 4 (03:03):
Okay, cool, we're happened a conversation with sitting down, we'll
have listen, it's not working out. But if it's a
crazy stalker chick who like is insane, I'm sorry.

Speaker 2 (03:11):
And then you're insane for being with her for four years.

Speaker 4 (03:13):
Oh that's what I'm saying. And this is the only
way I can go blocked. I don't even blocked. You're
gonna hit me and see green be like what happened?

Speaker 6 (03:21):
Weird?

Speaker 2 (03:23):
I pushed hard back on this guy again. I don't
usually do that. I'm like, sure, we can talk about this,
you know, And I just said, the fact that you
won't do it in person to me is just so disrespectful,
and he was like, I'm not it's done. It's not
going to be done in person. It's a caller a text.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
It is the easiest thing to do though, just a
text buy. But you can't do that. It's not a
respect for the relationship of four years.

Speaker 3 (03:44):
You know, if you're going to face them, at least
call oft.

Speaker 2 (03:46):
And if you ever get a text from somebody that's
so long it turns into a note, like you have
to click it and it opens up. If you're going
to break up with b via text, it better be
a click note. It better be that big. I don't
even feel we can probably run through a bunch of
peolness and get him a quick answer. Nobody in their
life wants to be broken up with. Obviously, I think

(04:06):
that's one thing we can all have in common. Breakups
are absolutely terrible. But if it's going to happen, do
you want it to be a call or do you
want it to be a text? Six one seven nine
three one one nine four five six one seven nine
three one one nine four five caller text. I don't
want to be with you anymore. I hate guys. I

(04:28):
know it's not just you, though, but good morning. It's
Ashly and the gem of morning show. Dude hits me up.
He's like, ash, I'm going through it. I gotta break
up with my girl. I'm not doing it in person.
I didn't even want to put this on air because
I begged him. I'm like, let's I can. I don't
need to put you in hereck and this real quick.
You need to sit her down. It's been four years.
He won't do it. He said it is a call
or a text. So now the question is if you're

(04:50):
if this is going to happen to you six one
seven nine three one one nine four five. He wants
to know which one to me. Obviously, it has to
be a call if you care even a iota about
the person.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
It has to be called because you can talk to
them and tell them what's happening and all this stuff.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
You want to just run through these Jennifer is enhancing
hijen Hi, So you kind of you kind of agree
with foreign. If she's a crazy person.

Speaker 6 (05:19):
Then yeah, totally.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
I know.

Speaker 6 (05:21):
I know plenty of people in situations currently that they
have a hard time communicating and there's just no way
that the partner would see their side, and sometimes they'll
use anything they can in order to get their way,
whether it's suicide, crying, sobbing, whatever. People are crazy. So

(05:44):
if it's a text that he's got to do, then
he's got to do it. But it does depend on
the person.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Okay, all right, Jennifer, thank you for that.

Speaker 4 (05:53):
To be clear, fellas are like that too. It's not
just women. There's some crazy dudes out there too.

Speaker 2 (05:58):
Heavy ashes in brock an ash Caller text you're getting
broken up with he's dumping you today. Caller text Ashley, Honestly,
I'm sorry.

Speaker 6 (06:13):
I was saying, honestly, just text me because just to
stay away from the confrontation, like at that point it
must have be at it which end, there must be
a lot of things going wrong, like a lot of fighting.
Probably like you know.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Okay, she's fine with a text. Maybe I'm maybe off
the problem. Amara is in taunt and Amara, it will
not be in person. I have begged this man. He says, no,
are we doing a caller text? He's dumping you today?

Speaker 6 (06:40):
Well yeah, if he really doesn't respect me enough to
see me in person, I don't want to hear your voice.
Just text me like you're dead to me anyway, you.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Know what, I can kind of see that that's true.
If you're not going to give me the respect to
sit me down and have like a real adult conversation,
just suit me. Shoot me a text. Amara, thank you
for the call. It's giving sex and the city. I'm
sorry I can't the burger post it note Tatiana is
in Wooster. You're getting dumped today, Tatiana, like it is

(07:08):
gonna happen today, call her text.

Speaker 6 (07:12):
I mean I wouldn't want either, but I'd say a
text because at least they could like text.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
Me and then just block me. I'm gonna blow their
phone up and I'm gonna bug out.

Speaker 6 (07:20):
But I mean a call, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (07:24):
Wow, Okay, Tatiana, thank you. It's overwhelming. There's still people
on hold, but overwhelming text is the answer.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
To Fourn's point.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
When my ex broke up with me, I was a
bubbling mass, So I yes, for in front of you.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
That is, like if we really dial that back, Like
the man got dumped and he called the nine to
one one, that poor police.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
I'm pretty certain that I was begging her to be
with me too.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Wow, So I'm wrong people, well at least from those
that decided to call. The overwhelming answer is to shoot
the person.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
You're looking at it from a view of a normal relationship.
He won the fire man, you know what I mean, Like,
have the decency to have a conversation with me.

Speaker 3 (08:12):
Some people you can't talk.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
To, Like he's not gonna take his axe and just
start chomming down the house.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Shoulders.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
Stuff in that backpack wouldn't fit nothing,
