Chris agrees, sharing, “There’s not an easy solution regardless because of the three dogs.”
Nicole tells her husband that she doesn’t “want to live separately,” adding, “If we’re struggling so much to find a solution now, what are we going to do later?”
Chris then tries to reassure his wife. “If we can’t figure out a solution in the immediate [future], it’s not anything we need to freak out about because we still have our places and we have some time,” he says.
However, Chris' approach does not sit well with Nicole as she wants him to take charge in the situation.
“I am a very proactive person. I know what has to be done for Chris and I to live together,” she says in a confessional. “We have to talk to different leasing offices, we have to look at different apartments, we have to find out our budgets.”
She adds: “This stress is never going to go away until we figure it out and I need him to have a little more pep.”
