Ask Uncut - Christmas Gifts, Photo Albums of Exes and Shared Middle Names

Hey Lifers, Welcome back to ask uncut where we answer your deep, dark and burning questions with our best but technically unqualified advice. Britt is nudging for an honorary doctorate! Laura can have orgasms in her sleep. We're aware that this is likely a unicorn and very fortunate skill but have you ever had one in your sleep? Britt has an unfortunate injury and somehow zooper doopers have entered the chat. Vibes for the week: Keeshia The Later Daters on Netflix Britt Meet Cutes NYC Instagram Laura Pink Santa by Tanya Hennessy Then we jump into your questions! BUY XMAS GIFT FOR NEW BOYFRIEND OR TOO SOON? I’ve been dating this guy for about 9 weeks now, it’s going great, amazing communication, sex etc etc. From the get go we’ve been straight about not dating anyone else, pausing the apps etc. With Christmas coming up, I’m wondering do you think it would be too full on to get him a small gift? It will have been ~3 months of dating by then, he’s really easy to buy for and I know what I’d get him but also am aware of him being spooked in the past when he hasn’t felt 100% sure. He’s said numerous times how much he’s enjoying this and wanting to continue seeing me and see where things go. I’m worried if I get him a Christmas gift he might freak out? I don’t expect one in return but have seen a few small things I know he’d love. Too much too soon? Or okay? IS IT NORMAL FOR BF TO SAY HE WOULD SLEEP WITH FRIENDS IF SINGLE? My boyfriend has been talking to a girl who he met online. He said she is only a friend but he would sleep with her if he was single. He tried to justify this by saying he would sleep with any of his friends if he was single and they wanted to as it is just sex. He said that all men think like this. My question is… is this true that all men think like this and he is just being honest, or is it a strange comment? KEEPING PHOTO ALBUM OF EX My fiancé recently got some of his old belongings from his parent’s home as they’re currently going through a move. In the items was a photo album of him and his long term ex who we happen to have had issues over in the past. I found the photo album hidden in a wardrobe after he told me “yuck, they can go in the bin”. My question is, do you think keeping photos of an ex is a red flag and why do you think he’d want to keep them? SIBLING WANTS TO USE SAME MIDDLE NAME AS MY KID So I had my baby in May and he’s the first grandchild of the family. His middle name is my dad’s first name. My brother‘s wife is having a baby in January and he told me he wants to give their baby the same middle name - after my dad. Thoughts?

PART 2 - The Truth About Addiction Uncut with Johann Hari

What if everything you think you know about addiction is wrong? Johann Hari's personal journey into the heart of the war on drugs led him to ask this question and to write the book that gave rise to his viral TED talk, viewed more than 62 million times. Johann Hari is a best selling author of many books like Chasing the Scream, the War on Drugs, Lost Connections, Stolen Focus, and Magic Pill - The extraordinary benefits and disturbing risks of new weight loss drugs.” We previously released an episode with Kate DeAraugo about her personal experiences with addiction and today we wanted to look at addiction a bit more broadly and unpack how it comes about and why so many of our loved ones are battling with addiction or substance abuse issues. We spoke about: The difficult narrative of loving an addict and not knowing what to do to help The story of what causes addiction isn’t accurate Why blaming it all on biology isn’t helpful, nor is blaming it all on personal choices Policies based on shame and punishment make addiction worse How much control we actually have over our own willpower People with ‘addictive’ personalities The money-happiness trap; the hedonic effect You can find all of Johann’s books and further information at his website.

The Show Goes On. Tones and I Suffered A Miscarriage Before The Biggest Show of Her Career

Hey lifers! Did you ever compete in the school talent competition? Britt and Laura share the talents that they were proud enough to share with their friends and family. They were subsequently mocked for them! Have you ever accidentally posted something to social media that was meant for close friends or a group chat? British actress Betsy Blue English 'called out' Tammy Hembrow for copying her wedding cake; except she didn't mean to call her out, she meant to share it on her close friends story! We read out some of the funniest accidents that you have caused yourself. A few days ago, Tones and I shared a heartbreaking post with a caption explaining that she had suffered a miscarriage during the rehearsal of her recent Melbourne show. Tones went on to perform the following night, with very few people knowing the pain and the loss that she was experiencing. Today we have a chat about miscarriage and discuss: The pressure women may feel to 'get back to it' and act as though nothing has happened. Laura's experiences of having multiple miscarriages. The feelings of loneliness that miscarriage can force you into feeling. Tones bravely sharing this to reduce the shame, guilt and stigma women feel around pregnancy loss. Whether we should re think 'not telling anyone' until 12 weeks of pregnancy. You can watch our whole chat with Tones and I on Youtube You can watch us on Youtube Find us on Instagram Join us on tiktok Or join the Facebook Discussion Group Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because WE LOVE LOVE! xx
