Comedian Nikki Glaser has revealed the unique dynamics of her long-term relationship with boyfriend Chris Convy, including her surprising stance on monogamy.
During an April 8 appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast, Glaser explained that while she doesn't engage in outside relationships herself, she doesn't mind if her boyfriend does. "I don't really care if my boyfriend were to hook up," she stated. "But that is not a two-way street. I'm not someone who likes to hook up when I'm in a relationship."
Glaser, who has been dating Convy on and off since 2013, described their arrangement with a memorable analogy: "It's like lending your friend your sweater. 'Have fun with it for the night, but give it back to me, don't stretch it out.'"
However, the comedian drew clear boundaries about emotional connections. "If he wanted to be with her, no. Then go be with her, don't be with me," she emphasized. On the podcast, she elaborated: "If he were to watch The Wire with her or do crossword puzzles, or send memes and stuff, I'd be like, 'What the f--k are you doing? That's our thing.'"
Convy, a former producer on Glaser's MTV show Nikki & Sara Live, has been supportive of her candid comedy style. "As long as it's funny, you can talk about whatever you want," Glaser says he tells her. This includes her notorious joke during The Roast of Tom Brady where she declared she'd shoot her boyfriend "in the f--king face for a lottery ticket to suck Tom Brady's d--k."
The couple's relationship has endured multiple breakups, which Glaser now views positively. "We always get back together, which is the best because you get to take a break," she advised. "I feel like most couples should do this—take a break, go date other people and then you date other people thinking, 'Oh, this will be better,' and then you look back at him and think, 'Oh, he's the best.'"
Recently, Glaser has warmed to the idea of marriage after seeing Taylor Swift's engagement to Travis Kelce. "It was the first time I was ever like, 'Okay, maybe I could do this,'" she told Jenna Bush Hager in September. "Because I like to follow in her footsteps."
Despite her unconventional approach to relationships, Glaser acknowledges her own commitment fears. "I have a fear of commitment," she admitted. "I'm the one." Yet she adds with her characteristic humor, "I actually feel like now he is the one. It's nice to admit that, but I don't know, he might be dead in Iceland right now."
