Give It To Me Straight

33. The Complexities of Relationship Balance

Relationships are a lot of work even when both partners are giving their all. So what happens to a relationship when one partner starts to give more than the other? In this episode, Jon and Alex give their mediocre advice about a boyfriend needing to choose between his parents and his girlfriend, what opinion you can have on your partner’s desire to get Botox, dealing with grief and financial instability, and whether or not you should ignore toxic behavior when it’s a family member.
