About this listen

LET’S TALK ABOUT EX, BABY! AH CRAPPY RELATIONSHIPS, THE BANE OF OUR COLLECTIVE EXISTENCE. BUT WHAT DO WE LEARN FROM OUR MISTAKES? Former relationship columnist Elizabeth Best and current all-round funny guy Tom Harris chat to guests about the couple fail stories we all like to recount over drinks (because let’s face it, sometimes we need booze to cope). Ghosts of Boyfriends past will take you on a journey through the funny, tragic, horrifying and sometimes just plain bonkers stories about that crazy little thing called love, and try to wind up wiser for it. It’s like a group therapy session... with two people completely unqualified to be leading it.

    In this episode, we dive into a heartfelt listener submission: an article by a woman who bravely shares her experience of feeling deeply alone within her marriage. We explore the nuances of emotional disconnection, the silent struggles that can exist behind closed doors, and what her words reveal about the complexity of long-term relationships.


    Here’s the original article: https://www.mamamia.com.au/husband-feels-like-roommate/
