The bird show. And okay, I've got one for you. And I can't specifically name who I'm talking about here, but there is a girl at the radio station, a woman at the radio station drives me crazy because she's in another one of these freakin relationships that is like an on again, off again relationship. And the guy that she's going out with isn't giving her what she wants yet. She's just having the toughest time breaking away from this guy, even though he's just. There's just too much baggage going on. Too much, too much, too much. And she's constantly complaining about the relationship even though she won't bail on the guy. Okay? So I think that she finally, finally gave him basically an ultimatum and said, look, if you can't commit to me, I'm on my way. That's it. Buh. Bye. So she does that and he says, okay, I can't give you what you want, I'll see you around. So she takes off. She's like, fine, fine, then fine. And then they go through that whole well, I'll see you tonight kind of thing. Call you every now and then where it's not really officially like over over. But she's done the smart thing and she started like going out with another guy or a couple other guys or whatever, right? But she's still hooked on dysfunctional guy number one. So I was talking to her about it yesterday and she said, you know what I think it is? I don't think that I have ever gotten out of a relationship on my own term. I mean that I've always gotten out of the relationship on my own terms. It's never been the guy that said, you know what? Yeah, this thing's over for me.

She says now that she kind of feels. Well, she never said this. It was my sense that she would really like to see this guy again just so she can be the one to end it. Cause I said, do you really, really dig this guy? She's like, no, that's the thing. I really don't dig them all that much. But it's just, just the way it ended. So I'm wondering if there are any Bert show listeners that are brave enough. Brave enough to call us up. We'll use a voice disguiser if we have to, to say, you know what, he broke up with me, or she broke up with me and I didn't even like him that much. But I Got back together just so I could be the one to have the final say in the whole thing.

I bet there are so many who do that, because as I. It's all about control. A breakup is about control. Let's be honest, because that is you. Whoever got broken up with, your ego got crushed. Okay? And all you're thinking about is you're not reminiscing on the great times and blah, blah, blah. All you want is back so you can regain some control. And I guarantee. And of course, the way to get the upper hand is to get the control back and then break up with them. Absolutely. I mean, there's. The breakup is about war. It's about control.
