Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! Before we get to our callers, we introduce Nick to some viral internet dating theories and read a written Ask Nick. Then we get to our callers… Our first caller’s boyfriend was caught watching videos of his ex-girlfriend. She still loves him, but this made her feel icky about herself. Our Second caller was talking to an ex-marine, until he wanted her to sign an NDA before their next date. After doing her own digging and sneaking into his apartment… Did she sign it? Our final caller is wondering if she cheated or if it was self-sabotage that ended her. After finding who she thought was her perfect match, he wasn't ready to be a father, and she turned to her ex right after breaking up. “Technically you didn’t cheat, but technically who cares” Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://viallfiles.supportingcast.fm/  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.  To Order Nick’s Book Go To: https://www.viallfiles.com  If you would like to get some texting advice, send an email to asknick@theviallfiles.com with “Texting Office Hours” in the subject line!  To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://www.advertisecast.com/TheViallFiles  THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS: Altoids - Find Altoids In The Check-Out Aisle!

She expressed how important it was for her friends to be there, and calls in to update us her the airbnb situation.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! Dr Orna Guralnik, from the hit show Couples Therapy, joins us to talk about the new season and her take on therapy in general. Then we get to our callers…  Our first caller called in because she and her husband disagree on the gender for their next embryo transfer. Her husband wants to guarantee a boy, but she is persistent in leaving it a surprise. Our second caller is nervous because her long-term boyfriend is meeting her Christian missionary parents for the first time. Our caller’s faith is still important to her, but she doesn’t want to disappoint her parents due to her boyfriend’s lack of religion. Our final caller is wondering how to tell her parents that she doesn’t want to have kids and that her husband is getting a vasectomy. She already feels bad about moving to another country, and previous attempts have not ended well. Season 4 of COUPLES THERAPY premieres May 31 on Paramount+ with SHOWTIME. “There’s no tougher lesson for a parent, than their own kids demonstrating the right behavior when they’re not” Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://viallfiles.supportingcast.fm/  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.  To Order Nick’s Book Go To: https://www.viallfiles.com  If you would like to get some texting advice, send an email to asknick@theviallfiles.com with “Texting Office Hours” in the subject line!  To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://www.advertisecast.com/TheViallFiles  THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS: Altoids - Find Altoids in the check-out aisle.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We start off by talking about public affection and the frisky couple in Battery Park. Then we get to our callers…  Our first caller is wondering if her in-laws are brainwashing her to have a baby. She and her husband are on the same page, not to have a baby right now… how should she confront them with love? Our second call is a mediation call! Our couple is wanting to elope but doesn't know how to tell the soon-to-be husband’s mom. They still want to host a celebration, but they're afraid his mom’s traditionalism will make her angry. Our final caller calls in because his mom is guilt-tripping him with his childhood disease. He is all healthy, grown up, and in a relationship now… but setting boundaries with his mom has been tough because he appreciates her for the past she keeps bringing up.  “If we think we can influence somebody, the more we’ll try.” Start your 7 Day Free Trial of Viall Files + here: https://viallfiles.supportingcast.fm/  Please make sure to subscribe so you don’t miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@theviallfiles.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.  To Order Nick’s Book Go To: https://www.viallfiles.com  If you would like to get some texting advice, send an email to asknick@theviallfiles.com with “Texting Office Hours” in the subject line!  To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://www.advertisecast.com/TheViallFiles  THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS: Altoids - Find Altoids in the check-out aisle—grab your tin today.
