In this episode, Jon and Alex answer listener questions about a proposal that’s not a surprise, setting financial boundaries with your parents, sleeping with your sister’s ex husband, your boyfriend’s suspicious relationship with your stepmom, and figuring out how to say goodbye to your soulmate.

Turning points in relationships are often a result of the impact your choices have on you and your partner.

In this episode, Alex and Jon take on listener questions about a marriage of conflicting personalities, whether or not a ring means someone is ready to propose, a twin sister talking to her sister ex, the struggles of a family business, and how all bridesmaids are not created equal.
