Some couples just have it all, don’t they? The house, the dog, the two beautiful children and an amazing, close friendship group to share it all with. But of course, any relationship has its moments over time. People can become complacent, find themselves bored of the day-to-day, sometimes, one of them may even stray. But a little bump in the road in an otherwise happy and fulfilling life together was something Sally thought she and husband Dave could surely overcome…or so she thought. Follow us...

The Australian dream. Your own home, a loving husband and two beautiful children all by the age of 30. That is the dream… right? Well sometimes, even for those who DO dream of exactly that, even when they’ve got it, it still doesn’t feel quite right. This is the story of Kate. Despite having everything she thought she’d ever wanted, she always felt there was something missing. Now of course she eventually found that something. But no one - not Kate, not her husband, nor her family and friends ex...

Falling in love. There is no greater feeling. What starts slowly, suddenly happens all at once...and then bang. You have it. Real love. Ridiculous, inconvenient, all-consuming, can’t-live-without-each-other love. Now, we might joke about love being inconvenient, but for Jaimie, that's exactly what it was. A love that was so inconvenient she had to quit her job, move countries, combat racism and defend the man she loved against pre-conceived stereotypes to those closest to her. A clash of culture...

When you know, you know. How many times have we heard those words in reference to meeting THE ONE, The love of your life, your lobster... or in Kate and Josh’s case, your LOMFL (that's Love Of My F**king Life for those playing at home). But what happens when that impenetrable love bubble is burst by an all-consuming seductress that’s more powerful than love itself? No, it’s not another woman. It’s not even another man. It was something much, much darker. Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com....

Do you remember that feeling of your first love? Being head over heels at such a young age, but you knew this was it. It was real. Your love was even stronger than the famed Montague and Capulet. That was Manni and Rachel. Many of us grow up and grow out of our first loves. But, theirs never changed. Not because they grew together and fell more in love over the years, but because it never got the chance to grow and was forever halted in time. NOTE TO LISTENERS: This episode contains strong adult...

Love in another language. Is there anything more romantic? Being swept off your feet by a foreigner, sexy accent, mysterious background and all. With Hans, Belle had all that and more. But the mystery behind having different backgrounds isn’t always all good. Because when you come from totally different worlds and don’t know the other’s home life, the romance of mystery can quickly turn sour. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Some relationships are strong on their own. Others are only strengthened when those nearest and dearest refuse to accept it. And that was the case for Chloe and Lucy. Despite the pain they suffered by not being accepted, they always had each other. But sometimes taking away a loved one’s pain, can turn into a full time job and no matter how hard you try and how much you try and fix relationships around you, it’s yours that can suffer the most.

Love strikes when we least expect it. And when it does, it’s all consuming, you’re living in your own bubble and it really is just like the movies. That’s exactly what it was like for Michelle and James. And much like the movies, in every relationship, there are always tests and challenges before you get to the happy ending. Some are right in front of you and then there’s the ones you never saw coming at all. Email us: everyonehasanex@mintymedia.com.au Follow us: @everyonehasanex Hosted on Acast...

You know those “no one else understands” relationships? The ones friends and family all say is wrong, but the two people in it just know better. They don’t need anyone else to get it! They’re the ones in it, and they’re happier than ever, no matter what anyone says. That was Marie and Michael. But how often do you hear these relationships end up crashing and burning? Maybe it’s because love is blind. When you’re in it, you simply can’t see the forest for the trees. But eventually, reality always...

Teenage romance. Is there anything sweeter? Butterflies in the tummy, sneaking out of the house to see each other, the magic of a first kiss. But many teen romances are just that. Few survive into adulthood, let alone become lifelong. But those that do? They’re extra magical. But long term relationships, especially those that span 27 years, are hard. And even when you’ve known someone almost your entire life…do you ever really know them? CONTENT WARNING: This episode deals with trauma, depressio...

When it comes to great relationships, what often makes them so great is that they’re built on the solid foundation of friendship. Because there's nobody you’d support, protect and love more than your best friend, right? And that was the case for Hannah and Pete. But the thing about any friendship, is that no matter how much time you spend with them and how much trust you’ve built, there are often still secrets that are never shared. Some are small, some are insignificant and some….will change th...

Travelling after a break up with a group of your besties. There’s nothing better. Sightseeing and sampling local cuisines, without a care in the world. And you know what makes it even sweeter? A holiday romance. That’s exactly what happened to Sarah. Except this holiday fling went a little further. So what happens when you get engaged to someone you’ve never lived with? Someone from the other side of the world, an entirely different culture, with completely different values? And how far would yo...

It’s the 2020’s, dear listeners. We know love stories these days don’t come from spotting each other across a room, a surprise flower delivery from a secret admirer, nor an introduction from a friend. No. Romances these days are made on reality TV. Like Jake and Megan’s. But the thing about these types of romances, is that when the cameras stop rolling and the actual reality of life takes over, what you thought was paradise can very quickly turn into complete pandemonium.

Easy. That’s the description you look for to know a relationship is right. It’s easy. There’s no fighting, no games, no questions. It just works. That was Elise and Simon's relationship in a nutshell. Well, for a part of it anyway. And while easy is good, is it really all you want? Because with ease often comes…well, complacency.

First love. You think that’s usually a statement reserved for young couples, but that’s certainly not always the case. For some people, like Jan, it takes much longer to meet The One. Like, 59 years.

Every relationship has its ups and downs. Whether you’re Jane and Joe Blow or Prince Harry and Meaghan Markle, no relationship is perfect. Except Rachael and Matt’s. They were in their 30s, both totally secure in who they were and what they wanted, loved each other’s friends and family and had total open communication from day dot. The recipe for a great, long, strong partnership. So how then in the space of 6 months, did it go from being a blissful, love-up lifestyle to claiming you'd rather DI...

When it comes to relationships, you often hear that the best ones are based on a solid friendship. One where you have each other’s back, tell each other everything and glide through life’s trials and tribulations in unison. And that was exactly the case with Olivia and Alex. But what happens when what has always felt like home, starts to feel completely foreign? When you can’t quite put your finger on what’s changed or why? And when that one person who once told you everything, locks the front d...
