To her great relief, it turns out he wasn’t, and this has completely transformed their relationship.

Nikki Glaser admits to having split “probably five times over the past decade”, with breaks of two to three hours between. She frequently airs her relationship complaints on her podcast rather than communicating with him directly, which could account for this unfortunate state of affairs. Yikes!
