0:00Get it the virtue so Nicole has got herself some tickets to the championship game She will watch Florida and she will watch Oklahoma Duke it out, but her ex-boyfriend will not be there and he doesn't know it yet Hey, Nicole. Hey, Bert. How are you? I'm actually doing pretty great after after Saturday. I bet you're a Florida fan, right? I heard I have bleed orange and blue since birth. Well, congratulations. Thank you very much So how many weeks ago did you buy these tickets? We bought them just either way, no matter who it was going to make it we bought them actually just Before the Florida Georgia game this year. Okay, we have to get all of the facts right here So when you say we bought them did you buy them or did you go 50 50 with him on them? They were technically a birthday present from him to you From him to me because my birthday is on Florida Georgia games this year Okay, so did did you know they were coming like did you guys talk about it and say I had no idea it was a big surprise So you got that you open up a box and in there is a note or that says I've purchased you to take it to the game

1:03They'll be here in a week. Yeah, all right and while you guys were dating. I'm assuming he's a Florida fan also No, he's a Georgia fan. Okay. Hey, George you're going to the national championship this year I don't think so. I've got some pictures coming up Yeah, I'm the 18th We'll answer your question for it. That payoffs it proves otherwise are you it's totally unrelated But are you really putting on one of those little Georgia G's that people paint on their cheeks and your ass cheeks? Well, I wouldn't say little okay So okay, so he buys them for you. He's a Georgia fan. So he's not as invested in Florida, so what makes you even think that he's gonna be upset that he's not going to the game? Well, we ended up he broke up with me on the Florida Georgia game because Florida one I guess Whatever is kind of shady character, but he calls me yesterday telling me that just to leave his ticket In his mailbox today when I drive him from work because he was wanting to use it all right hold on We got a backup and have a step he broke up with you on on game day Florida Georgia game day because Florida beat Georgia

2:04He said what he told me he said he just couldn't take it any longer So he broke up with me on after the game ended so he gave you the tickets before the game Dumped you after the game and now and now want you to drive one of the tickets over to his house and leave it for him pretty much Yeah I'm a little torn because as a Georgia fan. I do respect that he broke up with you on that day Doesn't matter Your tickets he's not entitled to those at all, and he's a gift Yeah, so my my thing is I'm a spiky Tell him if there is no way over my dead body you're getting one Why do you have to be nice about it at all? Why don't you just call him back and say are you kidding me those were those were a gift You're not getting anything those are a gift that I'm going with my new friend Wendy Yeah, I think you should do whatever you mature adult would do and text him We'll just not say anything at all. I just avoid the phone. This is a slam dunk here I mean you have no obligation to him whatsoever. It should be an easy phone call you bought the tickets for me

3:04It was my birthday. They were both a present. You didn't get me one ticket for the game. You got me to it's over All right, just making sure I cover my my end. So I wasn't gonna be that girl. No that girl I don't think so, right? No, not at all. I think that you are absolutely in the right like the only way it would be controversial is if like you bought him the tickets Yeah, you broke up with him maybe and you wanted one of the tickets, but this is a slam dunk here Right, so and it's your team that's going in the national championship. Yeah Good to know, you know, I think that he might actually have more of an argument if it were his team Right, do you know what I'm saying? I would feel more sympathy for him if he gave her the tickets And then it was his team that ended up going and it wasn't her team, but she was gonna you know what I'm saying? I would feel like oh man That does really stink for him because his team is going but his team isn't going yours is and he broke up with you because you're team one This may be pretty basic, but if you tried to look into it I wonder if he's using that ticket to get back to hang out with you for a couple of hours. Just yeah

4:10Maybe he's using it as just the time to start to get back in your good graces because he's trying to I'll get back with you if that's the case then just take his best friend I don't believe that he broke up with you because his team lost that badly and he couldn't take it He had to have another reason Well, I certainly at least I can say I certainly hope it was for something more, you know Stential than you know of games. I just you know, no, no, that's pretty substantial Did he break up with you during the game or was it right after the game because it was about an hour and a half after the game Yeah, I mean, I'm surprised he didn't wait till second half. He could have done that. Save himself a couple hours. It was over by then He can't just good morning. You're a cure and I remember saw those losses First of all, I absolutely love you guys I moved from Texas a year and a half ago and I looked at you every morning on the way to work. Thanks. Thanks I just have first of all she's she has no obligation just say I mean however she wants to do it the tickets are not his But I had a similar one kind of similar situation. I had gotten death tones tickets for my birthday

5:16From my little brother and I had been in a three and a half year relationship and the last You know the last stretch of it was pretty bad with this guy that I was with and I had actually bought my brother bought me one ticket I had bought the other ticket and at the weekend was rounding about for the death tones concert and We just were not getting a long period. It just was not working. He was being a complete, you know what and So I just that Friday I told him I called him and I said you know what at this point I just don't even see how we're gonna be able to have a good time together and this was a birthday present from my brother And you know we're going together and I feel like it's just not possible for us to have fun So I'm not going with you and I ended up taking my one of my best friends Hana instead and And by the time I got back Sunday, he was already telling people we had broken up. Oh And well that was pretty much the end of our relationship With that turning point of the concert, but you know when we got back to send at talk to him and and you know

6:18That it was over but he was that kind of guy that he just had already told people in my hometown and you know It's better to emerge and stop telling again because that ain't gonna happen There are some women calling up saying that want to get a little bit more spiteful about it than that. Hey Katie good morning. You're on cue and hunters. Good morning. Good morning. Okay Just to get the fact straight. He got her a birthday present of these tickets that he gave her yeah, he Broke up with her because he's a sore loser on her birthday. Right correct. Okay What I think she should do is send him a text method saying I'm on my way to drop the tickets off in your mailbox now Cut out a little piece of part of cardboard written in an envelope and on the piece of cardboard put in your dreams Yes, yeah, I don't know where he gets off thinking that he's actually on to this game There's a we can do better than that even see we can do arts and crafts when we get spiteful So cutting letters out of magazines and stuff. It's therapeutic Hey Susan go ahead. You're part of the bird show. Hi. Hey

7:19Just wanted to tell a caller that she has no obligation to him to give him a phone call or text message What she needs to do is invite someone else to the game with her make a big poster that says thanks for the tickets And I'm like ill that the TV scans in front of That I like that That's the one that's the opinion to like I'm here with my my ex-boyfriends tickets That would make it that is a great idea Nicole you got no obligation this guy do what you want with the tickets all right? Well, Wendy if it's my if my friend does decide not to go and has a kid you have the other ticket, right? I'm ready to go I learned a blue needs to be and I'm gonna be there. There you go Thanks for calling bye-bye Get it the first show
