Transcript

[A]

The Birch show. We have to get Whitney on with the voice disguiser.

[B]

That's not her real name?

[A]

No, it's not her real name. She's using a pretend name and she's on the voice disguiser because she's in kind of a tough position with her boyfriend of four years.

[C]

Okay.

[A]

Hey, Whitney.

[D]

Hey.

[C]

What happened?

[E]

How are y'? All?

[A]

Good. How are you?

[E]

I'm okay.

[A]

I'm going to read your email. Then we will discuss because Jen and Melissa and Wendy haven't heard this yet, but I'll paraphrase part of it and then the important stuff. I'll read your words exactly. But you've been in a committed relationship for four years. Yes, I have and have done some snooping. Now let's start there. You snooped because you were suspicious or.

[E]

I've never really snooped before. He's had a lying problem in the past and I thought we had got through that. And he's just been really moody lately for no reason. I mean, you know, mood swings all the time. He's always mad at me and, you know, I just wonder what was going on. So.

[A]

So she found online and this is where I'll start reading verbatim a an online profile describing, quote, what he likes and wants in a woman. He is listed on there that he is single and up for anything. The website his profile is on is a meat4sex website. It even has live webcams where members can chat together. From what I saw, he has not met anyone. But the profile is very recent and the thought of him making one makes me sick to my stomach. He says he is looking for a fun girl, but absolutely nothing serious. He is looking for one on one dating swingers and flings.

[B]

So he's not only operating this, he's also trying to find somebody on this.

[E]

Right, Right.

[C]

He's.

[B]

He's doing both. Okay. So I thought if he's just operating it.

[A]

Oh no, this is him.

[B]

He's participating.

[A]

He's putting it out there. And then your email ends with, we've been talking about marriage lately and finding this profile makes me think twice about whether I should get out or stay.

[C]

Well, yeah, Yeah, I don't think you think about it. I mean, it'd make me sick too. And I mean, he's. I don't know.

[F]

I would just try to catch him in it.

[E]

I mean, I haven't confronted him yet about it at all. I just. I don't even know what to say. I'm just so shocked and disgusted and

[B]

quick question for you. Why wouldn't you leave?

[A]

Yeah, well, I mean, yeah, you're right.

[E]

I mean, I've only told two of my friends about this, my closest friends that I've known for years. And both of them think that this is just ridiculous and that even, you know, even if he wasn't intending a meeting, by the fact that he would go into this much detail that, you know, he's not trustworthy. Obviously.

[C]

I mean, I think when you care about somebody, then you try to give as much of the benefit of the doubt. But, I mean, just listen to what you said. Even if he wasn't intending to meet anybody, if I went to the trouble to set all this up and to set up this account and everything, and webcams and then. And webcams and online chats, and I had thought about it prior to doing it, then I'm intending to do something with it. Like I'm, you know, if I'm bored, I can find something else to do.

[E]

We, I mean, we get into issues over my face, you know, and I'm thinking on there, I have. I'm in a relationship. I tell about him. There's pictures on there about. With us, you know, and, you know, to find out he made this, I'm just.

[F]

Well, of course he's going to get mad. I mean, he's guilty.

[E]

Yeah, the.

[C]

Let me just follow up. So on MySpace to see. Have a MySpace page, you. You said this is an issue.

[E]

He doesn't have a Facebook or my.

[B]

Okay, okay.

[C]

All right.

[A]

So when you, when was it that you found this?

[E]

I found this on the 22nd.

[A]

So it's like a week and a half ago? Yeah, two weeks ago.

[E]

I'm at a loss. Like, you know, and the thing is, he's, you know, his mood swings have gotten even worse since then. And I even printed out a copy of it that way, you know, because I know when I confront him, he's going to lie.

[F]

I wouldn't even. You know what? I wouldn't even confront him. I'd set up my own webcam, create my own profile and just go on there and be like, hey, like that

[A]

Pina Colada song thing.

[C]

So for a week and a half, you have been his girlfriend and have just been. Stayed in the relationship. How? How?

[E]

I don't know. I have. I mean, the only contact I've really had with him is this past weekend. You know, I mean, I go to school full time and I just, you know, tell him I'm busy and he goes to school. So, I mean, I'll talk to him on the phone. But other than this weekend, I really haven't hung out with him.

[B]

So you're in love with this guy, right?

[E]

I am.

[B]

And. And so finding all of this makes you realize you don't know who he is.

[E]

Yeah, it's just. I can't believe that he would do this. I just. I mean, it's just so gross to me. I mean, that.

[C]

I mean, I. I tend to be a woman with a temper, and I'm shocked at how I don't hear a tinge of anger in your voice.

[E]

Like, I'm angry, but I've had a week to, you know, think about it. And. I mean, when I first found out, I was shaking. I just wanted to call him because, I mean, I'm usually really upfront about things, like, so why I'm the one to confront you if I find something out.

[C]

So a week and a half of absorbing this anxiety and stress, and I. Yeah, I'm just confused by your reaction, like, why you're gonna do anything. You're not gonna leave or do anything, or you're still gonna get married to him, and then you're gonna ask yourself later why, I wonder why he's continue to cheat on me.

[E]

Yeah, you're right. I mean, that's what. One of my best friends, she's like, you know, you're. You know, you're stupid if you, you know, don't say anything. You know, I mean, she's the one that told me, you know, to wait it out, though, and, you know, then, you know, let them know.

[F]

Wait for what?

[A]

Yeah, but what are you waiting for?

[E]

I don't know. You're right. I was waiting to talk to you guys, actually. I wanted to, you know, really have anyone to, you know.

[A]

Well, you know what?

[E]

Other than my girl.

[A]

Okay, so here. Here's what we'll do. We'll be fair that we've Got ph, obviously, so 404741 Q100. We will take calls from anyone who thinks that she should give him another chance. Okay, so we'll see if you're looking for opinions. We're just get the only calls that we're gonna take after we talk to Jack. The only calls that we're gonna take are gonna be from people who think you should stay in the relationship. And I have a feeling you'd be off the phone in three minutes with no calls.

[E]

Okay.

[A]

Why, when you first found that, did you just notice turn off the computer and walk out of the house?

[E]

I was actually at my house. We don't live together. And I was on my computer when I found it, and it was really late at night. We had just gotten a big blowout argument, you know, and earlier that day, he was on his laptop, and he got really, you know, squeamish when I came around him, and I was just like, you know, that's really odd. So, you know, I found it on his email, actually.

[C]

Do you mind me? Have we asked how old you are?

[E]

I'm 19.

[B]

Okay.

[C]

I think that explains a lot. That explains a lot. And I'm not saying that in an insulting way, because I think that. I think that you are. I think you're putting this energy and you want this to work, and you're trying to do your part to make sure it works and forgive and everything. And I just think that. I'll just say it. I don't think you're experienced enough to know that you're wasting your effort on this guy.

[E]

Yeah, and that's what I was telling my friend. I was like, you know, I feel like if I had a few serious relationships under my belt before this happened, I would. You know, my reaction would be different. Mm.

[C]

I think. I think you find it would be,

[A]

we're not getting in there.

[E]

Want to be stuck and, you know, stuck in this and this be how it's gonna be, you know, because, I mean, I'm so sweet, you know, I'm just disgusted at this, and I, you

[F]

know, Then get out.

[C]

Yeah, she's listening.

[G]

Listen.

[D]

I mean, a spade is a spade is a spade.

[E]

Okay, okay.

[A]

But what if he could change? Don't you think he could change?

[D]

Carla, he can change. A leopard don't change his box, and not overnight.

[C]

Who's your friend?

[D]

So you just need to just.
