Nick is back to answer all of your relationship questions and on todays episode we start off with a question we get a lot when it comes to masturbation. Our first caller is concerned after walking in on her boyfriend masturbating while on vacation when she had just offered him oral sex. Second we speak to a women who is not into communicating on Snapchat with the person she is dating. She is ready to move the conversation from sexting to texting and to get this potential relationship off the ground. After the death of her partner our next caller is struggling with sex and dating. The person she finds the most comfort with sexually is the best friend of her partner that passed and navigating this friends with benefits situation has her confused with all the emotions surrounding it. Lastly we speak with someone who's politics no longer align with that of her family or where she grew up. Family Facebook political posts have started to strain all of their relationships because of their opposing outlooks. "Being passive aggressive while calling him weird is not being direct."

Today on Ask Nick we start with a woman who is trying to get over her relationship after she jumped into it super quick thinking it was her person, and now thinking he is a narcissist who took her for a ride. Second our caller was in a toxic relationship where she was putting up with behavior she should not be dealing with but also is being irrational in not listening to what her boyfriend is clearly telling her because of a fear of being alone. Next we speak with someone who is questioning getting engaged because she can't figure out what the one thing is that keeps holding her back. Lastly we speak with a girl who felt rejected by someone she started to date and now that he is single again, and reaching out to her, she does not know if she should re-engage with him. She shares with us her texts so that Nick can better understand the situation hearing both sides of the conversation. " Its not hard for people to act like they are dating… what's acting like we're dating, its hanging out with someone while sex is on the table " Please make sure to subscribe so you don't miss an episode and as always send in your relationship questions to asknick@kastmedia.com to be a part of our Monday episodes.
