A to Z Dear Jack (and Xochitl) 13 | "Feeling Ex-ed Out"

Dear Xochitl and Jack,I've been dating someone for a few months, and things were going well until they started talking about their ex constantly. It's making me uncomfortable, and I'm not sure how to address it without sounding jealous. How can I communicate my feelings and ask for some boundaries without causing a rift in our relationship?Sincerely,Feeling Ex-ed OutTranscript:00:00:00발표자 1Dear Jack.00:00:03JackWelcome to the A-Z English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we are doing a dear Jack episode, but it's a dear social and Jack episode and this is where I read one of our listeners problems and then we give some advice.00:00:23JackTo the listener, so this one is dear, social and Jack. I've been dating someone for a few months and things were going well until they started talking about their ex constantly.00:00:37JackEx. Meaning like ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. It's making me uncomfortable and I'm not sure how to address it without sounding jealous. How can I communicate my feelings and ask for some boundaries?00:00:52JackWithout causing a problem in our relationship, sincerely feeling exed out.00:01:02XochitlOK, I think there's two reasons, potential reasons. I'm sure there's many more, but there's two potential reasons for this happening that spring to my mind. One is either the person.00:01:18XochitlWasn't well. There's three big ones. I personally wasn't ever fully over their ex and either they've started talking to their ex again and they're like cheating on you or thinking about cheating on you and getting back together.00:01:31XochitlWith their ex or.00:01:35XochitlThey could not have any contact with their ex but missed their last relationship and sometimes it's not even about how they were treated. So I think sometimes it's not that we miss.00:01:50XochitlOur ex in a in a personal situation, I've been this person who talked.00:01:53XochitlAbout sex a.00:01:54XochitlLot and it's not that I missed the guy. It's like I missed the way I was treated in that relationship. So I think sometimes it's worth bringing up. I don't think there's anything wrong with sounding jealous personally, because.00:02:10XochitlIt is kind of on the person bringing up their ex like they should.00:02:13XochitlBe made aware of the fact they're doing this and and if they turn it around and make it your problem, say ohh you sound so jealous or whatever then you know that's a red. That's another red flag about that person. So.00:02:29XochitlYeah. What do you think, Jack?00:02:31JackYeah, I think I think those three are correct. I mean, either they're either they're still not over their ex and they want to get back together or they already are back together and dating you at the same time or they're trying to hurt your feelings, like trying to make you, you know, it's like a it's a perfect weapon you can weaponize.00:02:51JackIs it?00:02:52JackIn a relationship right where you can talk about your ex and make the person you're with feel jealous and and.00:03:00JackYeah, for less than less than I am. I'm just trying to think like, so I think when someone starts doing this in a relationship, you have to say something or you could just break up with that person. I mean, it doesn't. You don't have to keep.00:03:16JackGetting them? They should know better. It's really, really bad behavior. I mean, it's really rude, you know.00:03:25XochitlThat's on me. I guess mine is a funny situation though. I said I'm just going to talk about mine cause it won't make.00:03:32JackYeah. Yeah. OK, sorry.00:03:32XochitlMe look a.00:03:32XochitlLittle bit better. So that's probably why.00:03:34JackI didn't. I didn't.00:03:35JackMean to. Yeah. Through that your yeah.00:03:35XochitlNo, no, Jack, it's fine. I I agree. I acknowledge that I.00:03:39XochitlJust in my.00:03:40XochitlParticular situation the person was treating me really poorly and.00:03:44XochitlI started missing my ex and it it just started becoming like a little habit. Like I'd be like, oh, I remember when I.00:03:50XochitlUsed to go do ball ball.00:03:52XochitlWith this person like it would just come.00:03:54XochitlUp and.00:03:55XochitlAs it turns out, the person was treating me really badly because they were cheating on me.00:04:00XochitlWith their ex.00:04:02XochitlAnd then I was thinking about.00:04:03XochitlMy I started.00:04:04XochitlThinking about my.00:04:05XochitlEx. As a consequence of being treated poorly so.00:04:11XochitlI think it just depends. I thought that was really funny.00:04:14JackWell, it's not. It's only bad. It's only bad behavior if you're if you're. If you're dating like.00:04:20JackA good person.00:04:21JackLike if it's the person that you're dating is bad, then it it doesn't really matter.00:04:22XochitlAnd Sheeran.00:04:25XochitlYeah. And it's like, Oh well.00:04:25JackSo in this case.00:04:27JackYeah, as long as you're. If you're dating someone.00:04:30JackGood. And then you can you continue?00:04:33JackTo talk about.00:04:33JackYour acts and to make them feel bad, you know, or whatever, or even just if you do it subconsciously and you're not, you're not like trying to hurt them, but it does hurt their feelings. It would be worth it, I think, for this one for exed out this person.00:04:51JackTo say something, because maybe it's just a bad habit.00:04:56JackThat the person.00:04:56JackIs doing, but if they don't stop then I would definitely stop dating that person. I would. I would just, yeah.00:05:06XochitlYeah, regardless of.00:05:09XochitlWhether like in.00:05:10XochitlIn my case, for example, I would say.00:05:13XochitlI wasn't doing maliciously. I wasn't even really aware that I.00:05:16XochitlWas doing it.00:05:18XochitlBut I was doing it because I felt really neglected in my relationship and I kept remembering my past relationship. I started doing that after a while, like after a few months I started remembering my past relationship because, well, it was funny because, well, it's a long story and I.00:05:33XochitlWon't get into it. I'll stop.00:05:34XochitlMyself now, because it just gets messier. But.00:05:38XochitlBut I was going to say that I think.00:05:44XochitlI don't think necessarily the person bringing up their exes doing it maliciously, but I think it can signal that they're not over their past relationship or you guys aren't a good fit. It can definitely be a red flag and I don't think people will necessarily do it to hurt your feelings, but it can also happen when someone spent a lot of time with their ex.00:06:06XochitlAnd they're just now moving on to a new relationship.00:06:10XochitlAnd it's like that person was a big yeah. They're not ready yet. Like that person was such a big part of their life that they have a hard time separating memories from all the time they spent together. Like, especially if it was a long term relationship.00:06:10JackRight. They're not ready yet. Maybe.00:06:24XochitlSo I think you.00:06:26XochitlCan think of it as a yellow flag.00:06:28XochitlLike uh. Ohh.00:06:29XochitlThat's kind of concerning and bring it up and ask.00:06:33XochitlAnd uh, see where where it takes you.00:06:37XochitlAnd UM.00:06:39XochitlIf the person doesn't respect your feelings and doesn't respect that, you don't want to.00:06:42XochitlHear about their ex.00:06:45XochitlI think that's a good sign to leave the relationship.00:06:48JackYeah. Yeah, or.00:06:49JackYou could start talking about your ex, how great your ex.00:06:51XochitlYeah, that's fun. That's always a good time.00:06:53JackBut I mean, but then, you know, we call that like tip for tat. You know, like, that's not a good sign in a relationship. Yeah. When you just do the same thing to someone else, I'm not gonna give that advice to you.00:06:58XochitlRight, being petty.00:07:06JackIt works, but it it'll be it'll end the relationship for sure. If you want it. If you actually wanna salvage this one then you have to have a a real adult conversation. Say like.00:07:07XochitlBut it would just be funny, yeah.00:07:19JackHey by the.00:07:19JackWay did you know?00:07:20JackThat you talk about your ex a lot and I don't necessarily want to hear about that.00:07:23XochitlRight.00:07:26JackBecause, you know, we're dating now. Yeah. Makes me uncomfortable. Just be honest. Cut to the chase. Yeah.00:07:29XochitlIt's been comfortable.00:07:35XochitlOK, well, uh, let us know what you guys think in an e-mail.

The A to Z English Podcast | Phrasal Verbs with the Verb “Do”

In this episode of The A to Z English Podcast, Xochitl and Jack discuss phrasal verbs which include the verb “do.” Transcript:00:00:00JackYou're listening to the A-Z English podcast.00:00:15JackWelcome to the A-Z English podcast. My name is Jack and I'm here with my co-host social. And today we are going to do a language tips episode and we're going to do some 3 phrasal verbs that use the verb do.00:00:30JackAnd the first one is to do away with Xochitl. What does it mean to do away with something?00:00:39XochitlYou will know something.00:00:40XochitlIs to get rid of it.00:00:44XochitlEssentially so. Ohh, did you hear that McDonald's did away with the Mcrib on their menu? Ohh, no. That was my favorite menu item. It's basically McDonald's. Discontinued or got?00:00:50JackRight.00:00:57XochitlRid of that product.00:01:00XochitlYes, I think that's essentially what it means.00:01:03JackI have a good one. We did one A-Z English news story and then we quit so we could say we decided to do away with A-Z English news, you know.00:01:17XochitlRight. Yeah, it is. In this current events is no more. We have done away with it, yeah.00:01:22JackRight.00:01:25JackYeah, we, we quit it to quit. Something do away with it.00:01:29XochitlIt said something to get rid of something. Discontinue something. Yeah.00:01:32JackRight.00:01:33JackExactly. Now what about do over to do do something over?00:01:40XochitlDo something over is to give it another shot. As we were talking about in our sound very episode. Give it another try or just simply do it again and usually you want to do over when you fail. So let's say you're on cheerleading tryouts.00:01:59XochitlAnd you, you know, we're supposed to do some kind of flip in the air and instead you tripped and fell flat on your face. And they're like, OK, you're out of here and you're like, no, give me a do over. I swear I can do it this time.00:02:11XochitlThat would be.00:02:13XochitlA do over.00:02:15JackYeah, a do over right and that would be a noun, right? Because that's a thing, like the thing that you do. And then if we want to use it as a verb, you have to put something in the middle between do and over. So if you, if you if I gave you a homework assignment and then you gave it to me and I looked at it and I go.00:02:30XochitlRight.00:02:32JackThis homework assignment is not good enough. You need to do it over means you need to do it again. Do it over. Yeah, good. OK.00:02:42XochitlRight, right.00:02:44발표자Alright, I.00:02:45JackYeah, like that cause we use both, right? A do over is really like when kids are playing games and stuff, there's like no do over do over do over, yeah.00:02:51XochitlYeah, yeah, yeah. I think that's really cute. One. Yeah. It's. We haven't said one time. It's like the multiverse. Idioms are like the multiverse of.00:03:01XochitlEnglish because there's many different meanings to 1 idiom sometimes, which I think is neat.00:03:07JackAll right, so so I've got one more for us here. This one is do without what does it mean to do without something?00:03:15XochitlTo do about something is to make do, or essentially to substitute it. You're OK without that, so in the.00:03:26XochitlEpisode or an episode where we talked about song lyrics where Ariana Grande is talking about breaking free from her relationship. She can do without that relationship. She's better off without that relationship. UM, another example would be, let's say that you're cooking something and you don't have any garlic powder.00:03:47XochitlAnymore. But you have fresh garlic, so you just mince that and add it to the dish you did without the garlic powder because there was something else to substitute.00:03:57JackAgain, I've got one sentence here. It's like we forgot to buy milk, so we'll have to do without it for tonight. You know, it's like, yes, tonight we have to do without the milk because we forgot to buy it. We don't have it. So, you know. And you could also, sometimes you could say, like, you know.00:03:58XochitlSo this.00:04:17JackYou know, like, like I'm trying to think like, if you're eating dinner with someone or something or you, your, your mom packs you a lunch for school or something. And she says, Ohh, no, I don't have any more apple juice. And you say that's OK, mom, I can do without. I can do without it.00:04:36XochitlRight.00:04:38XochitlWell, I don't need it. I don't need it. We're OK for tonight. We don't need it for tonight. Let's just get on with it without it.00:04:48XochitlYeah. All right, well, those are phrasal verbs for today.
