Well, hubby and I watch Dr. Phil often. Yesterday's show had 2 couples where the husband was pressing for Post Nuptial type agreements.

However my big beef is that the second couple had been together 12 years, had lived toghether around 9 of those, and married about 4 years ago. (should be 13, but they're probably going strictly by dates completed) Whatever.

Anyway he's now asking for a post nup agreement that gives her only her car, jewelry, and clothes.

During the discussion "Leah" mentioned that she had suspected "Gary" had been having an affair. Dr. Phil questioned her on that and she said she "had been doing her homework", and that she discovered another woman was calling him once or several times a day. Leah said, "But they're just friends."

Dr. Phil just let it go!!!

Huh?? DANGER WILL ROBINSON!

Somebody needs to get that girl a book by Shirley Glass called NOT Just Friends!

Don't you think Dr. Phil should have picked up on that? He's not an Infidelity "Expert" I've seen it time and time again. There are times when he's doing a show on infidelity where I think his advisors have prepared him well but left on his own he seems pretty clueless.

This guy wants a post nup because he's in an inappropriate relationship.

During the show Gary added Leah could "have her pots and pans". hmmm... I guess his friend will be bringing her own cookware.

I didn't see the show but I am not surprise. His show director screen his guests and has writers preprep him up plus he has text prompt helping him during the show. I guess he should let go that session's writers !.


Give your absolute best such that you could look back 10 years from now w/ no regret.
