A caller calls in to hear Amanda's thoughts on his situation. Recently engaged and he is starting to think that his fiancé is a literal mess. He says her place is disgusting and he's now considering calling the whole wedding off. 

Every day, we all have those moments that make us double-take, scratch our chins, and ask ourselves, am I trippin?  

Well when you do, send us a DM @SealesSaidIt and tell us about your dilemma, and I’ll weigh in on whether you’re tripping like Ella Mai or somebody playing in your face.
