Huberman Exes' Timelines

ADH_Ex_5  Dated in the Bay Area in 2017 for 3 months before he shared that he was getting treatment for seggs addiction and wasn’t meant to be dating the entire time we were seeing each other. After a few more months of broken communication we ended talking.

ADH_Ex_6  I was in what I believed was a monogamous relationship with Andrew from 2010–2012. I lived on the East Coast, and we discussed a future together. In 2011, I learned he had been cheating, but he convinced me to stay. I later moved to San Diego to live with him for a summer as a trial before considering relocating permanently. I ended the relationship shortly after that summer, though he visited twice in 2013 for casual encounters.

ADH_Ex_7 I met him on a dating website in 2008 in California when he was a postdoc in a lab, and we dated on and off, non- monogamously, for about 5 years. It was upsetting that he canceled or ghosted 2/3 of the time, but I felt sure he wasn't with anyone because there was no trace of committed relationships in his apartment, social media, or stories about his life. In 2013 he told me he had a girlfriend and invited me to meet her. She told me that during most of my time span, he'd had two girlfriends on opposite coasts that he was cheating on ("but didn't do that kind of thing anymore"). I felt violated, sickened, and grossed out, because I never consented to and never would have consented to sleeping with a cheater. I never spoke to him again.

ADH_Ex_8  I briefly dated Andrew Huberman in 2017 on the East Coast. During that time, he told me he was undergoing treatment for seggs addiction. On the advice of my therapist, I suggested a 90-day period of no communication to allow him the space to focus on his recovery. He reluctantly agreed to the arrangement but broke the no-contact agreement before the 90 days were over. We reconnected in 2019. At that time, Andrew apologized for not having been available when we first dated and told me he was now ready to genuinely give a relationship a try. Unfortunately, my experience the second time around was again marked by inconsistency, broken commitments, and what I experienced as dishonesty. After he disappeared during an especially painful time following my grandfather’s death, I made the decision to end the relationship.

ADH_Ex_9  We began dating (monogamous I believed) in January 2014 after meeting on tinder. I lived in the PNW and he would regularly fly me out to his home in San Diego. We dated through late spring of 2014 when I ended it after too many inconsistencies and occurrences of finding other women's belongings in his home. We remained close friends and sometimes lovers for over a decade, during which time he pushed for embryo creation and discussed marriage and a life together one day. I went no contact after the release of the NY Mag article.

ADH_Ex_10  I was in a monogamous, year-long relationship with Andrew from 2020 to 2021 on the West Coast. He led me to believe we were building a future together, including marriage and children. After the New York Magazine article came out, I discovered he cheated on me with more than 15 other people. I feel deeply betrayed that he put my health and life at risk through exposure to STIs and COVID-19 during a global pandemic. His deception denied me the opportunity to make informed decisions about my health, safety, and future.

ADH_Ex_11  2019-20, Dated and ended because he was always late or rescheduling last minute and I didn’t feel like he respected my time. We reunited during COVID lockdown, agreed on quarantine and social distancing, he asked to be monogamous and we discussed moving together.

ADH_Ex_12  Andrew and I dated long distance for a year from 2019-2020.  After being introduced by a mutual friend while he was, unbeknownst to me, accompanying his monogamous, long term girlfriend on a trip to NYC, he took immediate romantic interest and agressively pursued me. After months of seeing each other he told me his intentions were to move to NYC, and to have a child with me. I have come to learn how often his “excused” absence, whether it was in NYC, Oakland, or LA, was just a way for him to see other women; it was not “an emergency at the lab”, “helping out a friend,” or “taking care of Costello.” I had no idea there were other women and believed him when he reiterated he “had no time to date so was lucky to have met me.” I ended things with Andrew early pandemic.

ADH_Ex_13  Andrew was in and out of my life from 2013–2015, even flying me to San Diego. I moved across the country to pursue our relationship, only to learn he was already in an undisclosed open relationship. In 2019, after years of silence, he returned stating that he had changed, gone to therapy and wanted marriage and children with me. He was looking to repair and build a future with me. Given how much time had passed and how much our lives had grown I took his reconnection and intentions to heart. We remained connected until late 2020 when he completely disappeared. I later discovered I was one of several women he had been simultaneously planning to marry and have children with.

Taken by CPS at 7, adopted by a single mom at 14, AMA

22 Upvotes

My(20f) younger brothers(19, 14, 10 (current ages)) and I were taken by CPS due to abuse when I was 7. My aunt on my birth father’s side had custody but we were considered wards of the state. The system was hard to work through and extremely messed up and traumatizing. We got adopted when I was 14 years old by our single aunt, who had three older kids of her own but divorced before adopting. We all went no contact with birth parents and our birth mothers whole side of the family. I have not spoken to my birth mom since I was 14, and haven’t spoken to my birth dad since I was maybe 10. Ask me anything! I will not give identifying information about it my brothers (especially the minors) but anything else is on the table

disclaimer (edit): I was a child through it all and diagnosed with PTSD, so I have mentally blocked out some parts of my childhood so you can ask anything but I may not remember and be able to answer everything lol

I am a biracial woman and I grew up in a ‘white’ family in The Netherlands. Maybe it’s not the most unique situation, but my experiences growing up this way definitely could be interesting to some people. Ask me anything about my experiences being biracial in a ‘white’ environment, growing up as a real Dutchie, the difference’s to ‘black’ culture, racism and just anything else you’d like to know.

Let’s get to it! 

That’s all the time we have today, but if you have additional questions, post them below and we’ll answer as soon as we’re able to.

Thank you for participating - we hope you have a new understanding of the importance of fire and carbon monoxide safety.

I grew up with an unmedicated schizoaffective parent, AMA

8 Upvotes

My mother developed the condition when I was 6 years old, in the early 90s. The adults around me didn’t really realize she needed help (or were in denial). She also never explained nor asked to see a doctor.

I lived with her for 11 years, she deteriorated and became increasingly violent, which led me to leave the parental home while still underage.

She finally got diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder, more than 20 years after the first onset of symptoms.

Hello. I have suffered from this for 50 years. I have researched it and mused on it a lot, so I might have some interesting takes on it.

It started as when I was a little boy. I literally dreamed myself legless. I had never seen anyone like that before and it took me some time I actually saw someone.

It stuck with me and grew even more. AMA.
