Is She Being Petty and Jealous?
Can exes help out exes?
Every Wednesday on the Wakin' Up with CJ and Jess Show we transform the Wolf studios into an impromptu therapists office. We dim the lights, throw on a sound effects machine, light a candle and focus in on a problem that one of our loyal listeners have.
No we don't really do all of that but we do grab one email from a Wolf listener that has an issue or problem with something and they are looking for some advice from the Hudson Valley. Today's issue comes from a woman who's not sure if shes being "petty and jealous".
She wrote, "On Monday, I went to my boyfriend's apartment and was stunned when I was greeted by a small dog. The dog belongs to his ex-girlfriend. He is watching it this week because his ex-girlfriend is on vacation. I can't believe he didn't tell me this beforehand. He and I got into an argument about why he is still talking to her. He says he has no feelings for her, but still loves the dog. He said dog watching is the same as if they had kids and joint custody. I disagree because a dog is different than a child. Should he be watching the dog? Am I being petty and jealous?"
What do you guys think? Is she blowing this out of proportion?
I think she might be overreacting a bit but I do wonder why the boyfriend never said anything to her about the dog before? Seems like a little red flag, at least to me.
If you have some advice for her, call or text us through the Wolf app.
