Episode notes

This episode of Therapy for the Pour unpacks a relationship advice story where a new partner slowly takes over someone’s space — without ever officially moving in. What starts as convenience turns into suffocation, blurred boundaries, and growing fear, especially when concerns about pets and safety enter the picture.

We, yes WE! talk about how control doesn’t always announce itself, why discomfort is a valid warning sign, and when it’s time to stop being polite and start protecting yourself.
