110: Her Boyfriend Talked to ChatGPT About Their Relationship and They Broke Up

What happens when you see that your boyfriend is processing cruel things about you with AI? In this episode, we talk to writer Lindsay Hall about accidentally discovering her partner’s chat and what it reveals about men, dating, and the loneliness epidemic.

In conversation, we discuss:
* The moment Lindsey found ChatGPT conversations titled "relationship issues and uncertainty" and what she read inside
* Why his complaints weren't fixable issues (your cats, your van, your eating disorder recovery) but fundamental rejections of who you are
* How ChatGPT became an echo chamber validating every doubt instead of challenging him to actually do the work
* Why therapy is marketed to women, staffed by women, and feels inaccessible to men who need it
* The people in the comments telling her she should have "woken him up calmly" instead of leaving (miss us with that Monday morning quarterback bullshit)
* Why she doesn't regret reading it: at 37 and wanting kids, she's done having her time wasted by men who aren't sure
