FOR A WHILE NOW, AND YOU'VE GOT THIS BIG, BEAUTIFUL FAMILY,
WHAT'S THE SECRET TO A HAPPY MARRIAGE?
[LAUGHING] >> JAMES: AH, OKAY, THANK YOU

YES, I WOULD SAY LAUGHTER PROBABLY.
LAUGHTER IS THE THING THAT KEEPS PEOPLE TOGETHER.

SAYING "YES."

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> JAMES: OKAY WHAT IS HAPPENING
HERE?
THIS ISN'T DR. PHIL.
IT'S AN INAPPROPRIATE QUESTION, I'M NOT GOING TO ANSWER THAT.
>> IS IT LESS THAN FIVE?
MORE THAN FIVE?
>> JAMES: I'M NOT ANSWERING.
>> SO IT'S LESS THAN FIVE.
>> JAMES: NO, IT'S NOT LESS THAN FIVE!
I'M NOT SAYING THAT.
>> MORE THAN FIVE.
>> JAMES: NO, IT'S NOT-- THERE ISN'T SOME MAGIC NUMBER, OKAY
IT'S DISRESPECTFUL TO YOU KNOW-- AND THIS ISN'T THE RIGHT
PLATFORM TO BE DISCUSSING- >> GOT IT.

LOOK, I'M NOT DOING THIS, ALRIGHT!
IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY.
DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?
ONE THAT ISN'T ABOUT MY SEX LIFE.
I WOULD LOVE A QUESTION ABOUT THE SHOW.
THE GENTLEMAN IN THE BLUE SHIRT.
>> JAMES, YOU SEEM TO BE VERY EXPERIENCED WITH LOVE AND
RELATIONSHIPS AND-- >> JAMES: I'M GOING TO STOP YOU
RIGHT THERE.
YOU SEEM REALLY NICE, BUT I JUST DON'T WANT TO ANSWER QUESTIONS
LIKE THIS ANYMORE.
IT'S NOT THE POINT OF THE BIT.
THIS SHOULD BE ABOUT THE SHOW THINGS WE DO AROUND HERE THE
SEGMENTS WE GOT.
THAT'S THE POINT OF THIS.
>> I KNOW, BUT I JUST DON'T HAVE ANYWHERE ELSE TO TURN AND I WAS
HOPING I COULD ASK YOU FOR YOUR ADVICE.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> James: OKAY.
GO FOR IT.
FIRE AWAY.
>> THANKS.
WELL, I'VE BEEN WITH MY GIRLFRIEND FOR ABOUT SIX MONTHS
NOW, AND IT'S BEEN GOOD, BUT THERE'S A PART OF ME THAT KNOWS
SHE ISN'T THE ONE.
SO I'M WONDERING IF I SHOULD END THINGS NOW, OR JUST HOPE THIS
FEELING GOES AWAY?
[LAUGHING] >> JAMES: HMMM, OKAY WELL
I DON'T KNOW.
I THINK I CAN MAYBE HELP YOU WITH THIS.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DATING AGAIN?
>> SIX MONTHS.
>> JAMES: AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HAVING THOSE FEELINGS?
>> THE LAST THREE MONTHS?
>> JAMES: SO, HALF THE RELATIONSHIP?
I MEAN SIX MONTHS -- THAT SHOULD BE THE HONEYMOON PERIOD.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
>> RIGHT.
James: I DON'T KNOW.
IT'S DIFFICULT.
AND IF YOU WERE FEELING LIKE THIS AFTER ONLY THREE MONTHS IT
SOUNDS LIKE MAYBE SHE'S NOT THE ONE FOR YOU, AND REALLY...
MAYBE, MAYBE -- YOU'RE BEING DISHONEST WITH HER
BY CARRYING ON LIKE THIS.
SOMETIMES YOU JUST HAVE TO RIP THE BAND-AID OFF, IT'S GOING TO
IT'S THE BEST FOR YOU AND THE BEST FOR HER.
YOU JUST HAVE TO RIP IT OFF.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
[ APPLAUSE ] >> James: BOTH CARRY ON WITH
YOUR LIVES.
YOU KNOW.
>> SO YOU'RE SAYING FINISH IT?
>> JAMES: YES, WITHOUT A DOUBT.
>> THANKS JAMES.
SWEETHEART, I'M SORRY IT'S OVER.
>> OH MY GOD!
YOU JUST MET MY PARENTS AND SAID YOU LOVED ME.
SAID YOU WANTED TO BE WITH ME FOREVER.
>> James: I DIDN'T KNOW SHE WAS SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO YOU.
>> RIP THE BAND-AID OFF, JAMES.
James: NOT LIKE THAT, HERE.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU.
>> WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU.
YOU DON'T KNOW US.
