Hannah and Emily are diving into the moral gray area that is cheating. It can be complicated and some people can still stay in a relationship after their partner has had an affair, but can you?

Don't Be A Back Burner Bitch: How To Get The Respect You Deserve

The Gal's Guide

12/11/23 • 58 min

Never settle for being someone’s backup plan.

It’s not a friendship, but it’s not a relationship either. You're close, but you still feel a distance. You’re never sure where you stand with them. They're your person, but maybe you're number 3 on their list. Sound familiar? You might be a back burner bitch and baby, you deserve the front right burner. There’s a high chance you’re someone’s back burner, e.g someone’s back-up plan, in case that someone decides to get into a relationship— in case they’re single — or break up with their current partner. If you’ve been talking with someone and suspect that they use you as their back-burner, we're teaching you how to DEMAND the respect you deserve.
