We are back with another episode of Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We’re here again to bring on our callers and give them advice to answer their questions and navigate their relationships. On this episode we bring on our first caller who wonders how to come clean to a guy she’s seeing about criminal charges she is facing. With the crimes committed when she was an addict, her now being clean, and the guy she’s seeing also in recovery,  she wonders if they can build a connection by being honest about the skeletons in their closets. Our next caller is dealing with a situation in which her ex-boyfriend wants to stop by her place to pick up some things he left behind. Wondering how to shut down her ex’s power play, she wonders if enlisting the help of a guy friend can help this ex from trying anything. Our last caller wonders how to introduce her boyfriend to her family when she’s previously set strict barriers with her parents because of their behavior. Now she wonders how to make the introduction natural and if sometimes things are only a big deal if you make them a big deal.
“Give people the opportunity to fail.”
