Encore: Ep. 5 - Amy's Boyfriend's Dog

Dear Therapists with Lori Gottlieb and Guy Winch

Show Notes

Hey, Fellow Travelers. This week, we explore the ghosts of a partner's ex-girlfriend. A woman is happy in her new relationship, except for one thing: her boyfriend insists on taking care of his ex's dog, and she has a sinking feeling that it's not just the dog her boyfriend is holding onto. If you have a dilemma you’d like to discuss with us—big or small—email us at [email protected].
