Bhanks must be monitoring these threads so wanting to post and respond but is under threat of divorce from the fiance on one hand, Spaulding ending the relationship on the other, and the future mother in law barking at him in the background. She probably moved in as well after Josh talked to her.
Today's lesson in North Carolina marriage law for Soul Crusher, J.D.:
Brian's fiancée can't threaten divorce because there is no legal commitment involved. It does not matter how long they have lived together – two weeks, two years, or two decades – North Carolina only recognizes legal marriages.
On another note, same gender marriages have been legal in North Carolina since 2012.
It is a mother-in-law's responsibility to "bark".
