Am I Being Too Emotionally Slutty For My Partner? || U Up? Podcast || Ep. 565

Let’s get vulnerable! This week’s episode is full of listeners reaching out regarding intimacy, awkward conversations, and heavier topics. Before they get into it, J&J delve into differing life stages after Jared hears from a friend in full dad mode. Then, the first email comes from a male listener whose relationship seems to be teetering into the friend zone after 2 years with his girlfriend. The Awkward Encounter includes a throwback to a memorable Awkward Sex Encounter from July 2019. If you ever wondered what happened with Tampon Guy and the mortified woman who wrote in, she’s back with an endearing update! The next emailer asks how to disclose diagnoses affecting your life when you’re dating. She’s dealt with anorexia for a decade, but when does that get brought up if she wants to get serious with someone? The episode ends with a “Red Flag or Deal Breaker?” about coupled U Up? listeners, pet parents, and a common Hinge question.

Thank you both for your sensitivity to the question about the woman with anorexia. I thought you gave really compassionate responses and you took it seriously while providing truly sage advice. 🙏

Omg, love the "in a relationship and still listening", she is just a gossip like you guys! So am I! I'm in a relationship since 1.5 years and still listen to this podcast religiously, because it is so entertaining! :D I was also a member of the "Are we dating the same guy" group to see what's up :D And I agree, relationships and dating is a TOPIC, and when we are a relationship the best way to ruin it is to sit back and do nothing to keep it entertaining anymore!

jared so easily just sold me skims for my husband

[@jaredfreid]

lol Kim is a GENIUS.

[@thehawttomboy]

This episode was SO good. Yay skims!! thank you for the laughs!

[@stephaniem5188]

Jared is so right. Any guy that asks right away what you’re looking for means he is mostly always just looking for casual sex

[@jedisnowy78]

We are gonna need a SKIMS boxer photo, J! 😅😂❤

[@esikazemese]

If she is asexual, she should come to terms with that and articulate it. But still, they are not a good match obviously, I would break up. Omg, I barely recognized Jared's voice from that episode 6 years ago :D That was so funny! The echo xD

[@dangowad5368]

They are just proto-niceguys Jared; you will never meet them because you are too cool. This is just one of the sacrifices you have to make as one of the Travis Kelces of the world.

[@jaredfreid]

Us jocks will never know!

[@SL-xk5pd]

0:44 sorry but the laugh I laughed😂🤣 No shade tho it hits when it’s close to home after all.

[@caseyespinoza1202]

It must be said Kim K has the money to hire the best: Emma Grede is the woman we should be talking about.

[@classicnel]

This is an unpopular opinion but I have cats (I know Jared, ew gross) and I’d leave to go home and spend time with my kitties and be in my own bed! Meow 😹

[@esikazemese]

When you're having a good time with someone? The only night when you're finally available? .... You kind of missed the point there.

[@zoec4313]

@@classicnel agreed, some anti-pet owner sentiment in this thread 😅

[@sgtouring]

Jared every episode trying to get a sentence out: “I-I-I-I-I-I…..”

[@annadancen127]

I love the confidence in "we finally know how to say it!!" and then say CANnes (like a can) even tho it's still the Daniel KAHNeman kinda Cannes haha. for anyone interested, the correct pronunciation appears when you click the speaker symbol on wiki: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannes -- anyhow, great episode as always! and as a former cat owner of 17 years, I totally agree. you can def leave your cat at home alone, esp at night. same with dogs

[@Oaky]

I went to Skim's men underwear site. Not even a single guy without abs, including the guy in the wheelchair!!!

[@uuppodcast]

Jared already beat you to the site and made his bid to be a model! instagram.com/reel/CywmiBKu-4D/
