#82: Does your 'number' matter? (*Trigger warning in description*)

**TRIGGER WARNING: Domestic violence**


This week, we answer a listener query. Her boyfriend has slept with over 100 women and her 'number' is only 3 – is this cause for concern, and why does she feel "icky" about it?


We also mark domestic violence awareness month (this October) by giving some helpful numbers out, and talking through some of the statistics around it. Scary listening, but worth mentioning to bring awareness and hopefully help someone in need (if you are in a position to donate, here is the link). Here are some helpful addresses and phone numbers should you be affected by anything in today's episode:
