Episode 72 - Can you Break Up with Someone and Still Love Them?
People break up with their partner for many different reasons, such as their partners not satisfying their needs, infidelity (physical, emotional, financial, etc.), changes in circumstances (e.g. moving away), etc. In these cases when you want to break up with your partner, does that mean you don't love them anymore? With such a serious question, LRJ tries to dig deep to figure out what this question means and when/if this can happen. Questions Asked - What does it mean to love someone? - Is there a difference in familial love and romantic love? - Is love enough to keep a relationship? - Is love something that can be prioritized? - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lrjpodcastandchill/ - Email: [email protected] - Youtube: LRJ Podcast & Chill

Episode 71 - Should you be in a Situationship?
What is a Situationship? The term was created in Urban Dictionary in 2006 and according to the Cambridge Dictionary, a situationship is "a romantic relationship between two people who do not yet consider themselves a couple but who have more than a friendship." Meaning there is no label on the relationship with the person you are interested in and the people that are interested in you. Also you are doing all the emotional and physical parts of the relationship without the commitment of being in a relationship. Is this good or bad? LRJ discusses further into this new emerging relationship "terminology". Questions asked: - Why would someone want to be in a Situationship? - What societal pressures are making people be in a Situationship? - What is the difference between Friends with Benefits and a Situationship? - Would you want to be in a Situationship? - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lrjpodcastandchill/ - Email: [email protected] - Youtube: LRJ Podcast & Chill

LRJ delves into this subject to explore where the boundary lies. Questions Asked: - How would you handle your partner asking you to stop dressing a certain way? - What if your partner asks you to change your career? - Would you entertain your partner's suggestions or demands to change? - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lrjpodcastandchill/ - Email: [email protected] - Youtube: LRJ Podcast & Chill

Episode 23 - How to Talk to your Crush
From a reddit post in dating_advice, "As a man, do you ever give late replies so you don't seem obsessed with her, even though you actually are?" - It seems quite common for people to feel this way. Some would give late replies because they are worried they'll come off too strong, but some would reply instantly to let their crush know they like them or else their crush might lose interest. What would you do? - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lrjpodcastandchill/ - Email: [email protected] - Youtube: LRJ Podcast & Chill
