The Viall Files

On today's Bachelor Recap we are joined by both Bri Springs and Kit Keenan from the 25th season of The Bachelor. In this recap we dive into discussing meeting people outside of the show, people on the beach dipping into the DMs of past contestants, and what people are really playing the game for. We also talked about the ongoing toxic masculinity on the show, when you should have someone's back, learning that you weren't in love with someone until you're actually alone, and using therapy to process a relationship. "The first months back in reality… it's like an emotional hangover."

Today on Ask Nick, we start by speaking with someone who is having intimacy issues with her boyfriend which has led her to flirting with someone else. She wants to hear the hard truth about her behavior, but what she really needs to do is to explore why her relationship's sex life is suffering, and be honest with what she needs to do about it. Next, we speak with a guy who has recently gotten back into the dating game and is wondering how to balance his excitement without coming in too hot while also communicating his expectations for what he's looking for. Next, we speak with someone who was recently ghosted by a guy after she told him she has an STI, and is now wondering: was the STI or if she is just drawn to guys who like to leave coldly? Finally, we are joined by someone who is recently dating someone but he wants to put a label on it right away. She's not sure why, especially when his actions don't match his words, so she's wondering...is it weird? "Beware of polished people."

Today on Ask Nick we first speak with someone who started dating an addict and, even though they've had great dates, deep down is realizing it might be best to step away. Next, we speak with someone who might start dating her ex's ex-best friend and is wondering if it's a good idea. Also, is their friend group's support a good thing or too risky? Then, we speak with someone who started a friends-with-benefits situationship and he's moving away soon so she's trying to figure out whether she's interested or not, or if she's just wasting her time for her ego. Lastly, we speak with someone who is separated from her kids' dad and is now trying to navigate her dating life, with kids after a traumatic experience.
