This week we’re bringing back one of our favorite games, Tie-Breakers!

You sent in the recurring arguments that pop up again and again in your relationship — the ones that never seem to die no matter how many times you talk about them — and now we’re stepping in to make the final call.

From sharing phone passwords to whether it’s really that big of a deal to be 5–10 minutes late, we’re tackling the everyday debates that drive couples just a little bit nuts.

💛 In this episode, you’ll hear:

The difference between boundaries and control especially when it comes to what your partner wears.
Why couples fight about tiny habits (like dishes or unpacking) and what those arguments really mean.
How to handle when one partner wants more privacy and the other wants full transparency.
What your “clean-up style” says about how you handle responsibility in bed and in life.
The psychology behind “small stuff” fights and how to stop them from snowballing.
Plus, the ultimate showdown on period sex, post-oral kissing, and who should drive. 😏

If you and your partner love to debate, this one’s for you — equal parts funny, spicy, and “oh my god, that’s us.”
