The modern dating world has so many different levels of relationships that you can be in, and it really depends on what you want.
You're actually right. There's like categories now.
Something for everybody out there.
It's kind of nice because there's, you know, a casual companionship where you hang out, but it's not romantic. A situationship where it's romantic, but it's not committed. A monogamish where it's committed, but not serious. I haven't heard that one. What word would you describe your situation, Brooke?
Mine's just marriage.

Chapter 2: What complexities exist in modern dating?
She's asked for our help. You're going to hear it right after this. How many times on this show have listeners asked us to help them break up with their significant others?
Oh, no.
Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. That's why we created an entire segment called Brooke Breaks You Up.
Yes! I am not in the headspace for this today, Jeff.
Well, here's the good news, Brooke.
Yeah?
You don't have to do that today.
Oh, good.

Chapter 3: What types of relationships are common today?
Oh, good.
Because this couple has already had the breakup talk.
Oh, good.
And I guess the issue is, the problem is the breakup isn't happening fast enough.
What? Does the breakup happen right after the talk?
That's what I think this listener is saying in her email. But before I confuse my co-host any further, let's just talk to Maria about it. Maria, welcome to the show.
Hey, how are you guys? You sound chipper for a lady who may or may not be in a relationship. That was very vague.
We've officially confused everybody in the room, Maria. So what's the situation that you're in with this guy that you're dating or not dating? What's going on?
Okay. So I started dating this guy like six months ago. His name is James. James.

Chapter 4: How can you help someone navigate a breakup?
It has nothing to do with who he is as a person. It's just not clicking.
And it kind of hurts, but at least you're being honest.
Have you been honest with him that he's not husband material for you?
We don't need to say it that way. I hope you're not doing the breakup call.
How honest are we being with James?
I mean, a couple months into us dating, I could kind of tell that he was more into me than I was into him. And so I basically told him like, hey, I'm having fun with you, but I just don't know if we should continue what's going on between the two of us.
And so what was his response to that?
Honestly, he did it really well. He was kind of joking back like, well, if you want to break up with me, you can't do it until your mom's wedding because you already invited me.
Okay, do you mind bringing him to your mom's wedding? Honestly, no.

Chapter 5: What is the listener's unique breakup situation?
Like there's a last date meal.
Do you have anything planned like that special?
The plan for us was to kind of do breakfast together at the same diner where we first met.
Oh, full circle. Oh, wow. You guys are like so poetic about this. I know, I feel like a text breakup might just be better at this point. So how do we start the conversation?
Well, what if you be direct with him, but also unavailable? At the same time.
That sounds passive and aggressive. How do you do that?
Yes, that's the perfect sweet spot that we're going for. So if I'm you, I want to put it in their court and let them make the final decision on how to proceed.
Which is so Jeffrey. Nobody even understands. Jeffrey hates making a decision. My life has worked out pretty good.
I would say, listen, I'm so, so sorry, but my plans have changed and I have a conflict on that day. And I'm not going to be able to make our breakfast sad emoji. That way, you are owning, like, it's my fault, but that day doesn't work. And then you see what he wants to do with it. He likes you so much, I'm scared he's going to push it a year out.

Chapter 6: How does Maria plan to handle her breakup date?
Okay, I sent it. And I put at the end, I can't make our planned breakup breakfast. Oh, you did say that. And I put the sad emoji. Okay. There you go.
It's like, are you sad because of the breakup? Or are you sad because you can't make it?
Well, whatever happens, it's on you 100%. I take no responsibility.
Yeah.
And when we come back, we will see if your soon-to-be ex-boyfriend has responded as we continue Textual Healing Breakfast Breakup Edition. And it's coming up right after this.
Good music choice. Oh, yeah.
We're in the middle of textual healing with our listener, Maria, who's been dating a guy for almost six months now and realized just a little while in that this isn't going to be forever. Yeah.
Which is okay. It doesn't mean it's bad.
Yeah.

Chapter 7: What unexpected turn occurs during the wedding?
Yeah.
That's true. It just sucks because he's being super charming and I hate it.
You know? I mean, breakups are easier if one person is just bad guy. Yeah. Absolutely. You can't be indecisive now. Yeah.
Because from his text, it sounds like he's cool with it. It's over.
Yeah. Yeah. This is like the best case scenario. Right.
Well, that's the thing is like it should be over in a few days, but like it shouldn't be over like right now. Oh, no.
Wait, are you saying now that you feel like maybe you like him and you don't really want it to end?
Feels like that a little.
No, like for me and him, I just I just need to confirm that it's done officially. You know what I mean?
