It must have been the sex 13 00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,599 Speaker 2: because I was completely digmatized.

Two years ago, I was eight months pregnant 20 00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 2: and engaged at him. I picked up his pants and 21 00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:56,520 Speaker 2: his phone fell out his pocket unlocked. It's like God 22 00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: was basically telling me to see the truth. What was 23 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:02,600 Speaker 2: in the phone way more than I ever expected and 24 00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:06,600 Speaker 2: he was complete slut, even fucking around with women I 25 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 2: knew and saying them money as gifts while not helping 26 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 2: with the household. To make it worse, he messed with 27 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,240 Speaker 2: women at the apartment complex we've lived at, even our 28 00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 2: most recent place. 29 00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:18,839 Speaker 3: I'm so over his lives and bullshit. 30 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,039 Speaker 2: Last year, I was ready to get my own place, 31 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 2: but he guilt tripped me and said it was best 32 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: for the kids to stay together another year. Well, this 33 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:29,680 Speaker 2: year has been hell. He's so tossic and it still 34 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,720 Speaker 2: has drama with females coming to my door. Tells me 35 00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 2: I'm making things up. I can't deal with this. So 36 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,520 Speaker 2: recently I got my own place without him knowing. The 37 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: lease is almost up, and I'm doing everything in my 38 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 2: power to jump start this man into finding a place 39 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:46,440 Speaker 2: to live or even rehome him to another bitch for 40 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,280 Speaker 2: all I care, But he refuses to accept it and 41 00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 2: still makes it seem like we are going to be together. 42 00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,680 Speaker 2: His family refuses to help and even encourages him to 43 00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: stay with me. I don't even know what to do 44 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 2: to get rid of this man because he literally needs 45 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:03,000 Speaker 2: me for everything housing and transportation. Yes, he works, but 46 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 2: rarely helps with household bills. I don't want the father 47 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 2: of my kids on the street, and he still needs 48 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,080 Speaker 2: to watch the kids while I work, but I also 49 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:12,240 Speaker 2: don't want him laid up in my new apartment. Think 50 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,840 Speaker 2: he could say there, we don't have family that can 51 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,720 Speaker 2: help with the kids, so it's just us taking care 52 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 2: of them. So we're basically stuck with each other. Any 53 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,079 Speaker 2: advision be homing my baby daddy? And so don't fill 54 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 2: in the blinks. They are not having sex at all, 55 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,320 Speaker 2: and there's no chance of ever getting back together. 56 00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 4: Just big with everything, y'all.

I am not an idiot. 364 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:33,400 Speaker 4: I am not one of the boys, so I don't 365 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 4: know why he thinks it's okay to be so oblivious 366 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:38,720 Speaker 4: with his adultery. I don't want to tell my mom, 367 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:41,400 Speaker 4: as she won't leave him, and she is just going 368 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,919 Speaker 4: to be stressed out on the other side of the world, 369 00:17:44,080 --> 00:17:46,359 Speaker 4: all right, because your mom is in North America and 370 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,199 Speaker 4: your dad is somewhere else. Okay, this is none of 371 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 4: my business, so so what the fuck is you telling 372 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:51,959 Speaker 4: me for? 373 00:17:54,160 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 3: But I am. 374 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 4: Already stressed out with school and teenager shit, so him 375 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 4: adding this to my plate is rev I already think 376 00:18:01,560 --> 00:18:04,200 Speaker 4: men are trash, and he is just reinforcing that narrative 377 00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:06,359 Speaker 4: for me. If I don't sell my mom, I also 378 00:18:06,520 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 4: fear bad karma might come to me. But I also 379 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 4: feel as though telling her selfish of me, as it 380 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:14,679 Speaker 4: would just relieve my guilt. 381 00:18:15,119 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 3: Hmm.

Girl. 385 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 4: You did a good job of making your life sound 386 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:37,639 Speaker 4: like the most shittiest of all shit lives in the world. 387 00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,800 Speaker 3: Honey, Like, let me tell you something. 388 00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 4: I'm not gonna say we all have a cheating father, 389 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 4: because you know, I don't know about everybody, but yes, 390 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 4: I had a cheating father. And the reason why I say, hey, 391 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 4: it is because he's not a cheater anymore. My mom 392 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 4: end up getting the strength to leave after just you know, 393 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 4: after many, many, many affairs or whatever. But like your 394 00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 4: mom will get the strength to leave. I do understand. 395 00:19:01,359 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 4: I thought the same thing about my mom at first. 396 00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 4: You know, my mother gonna listen to this, like bitch. 397 00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 4: First of all, don't try, you know, But yeah, I 398 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 4: think that, you know, every woman has a breaking point. 399 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 4: And who's to say that your mom is not doing her, 400 00:19:15,680 --> 00:19:17,439 Speaker 4: you know, but still in love with your father, you 401 00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:19,240 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying. Who's to say that your dad 402 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 4: is not in love with his wife but he's still 403 00:19:21,800 --> 00:19:23,800 Speaker 4: doing him, you know what I'm saying. And who's to 404 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 4: say that This is not this comes from. This is 405 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 4: deeply rooted. You get what I'm saying, Like this is 406 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 4: like generational although men at a certain age, man you 407 00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 4: should know right for wrong. You got a woman that's 408 00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:38,480 Speaker 4: down for you. You got a wife. You cannot cheat 409 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 4: on her. That's just how some men are wired. You 410 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:45,040 Speaker 4: get what I'm saying. As far as you complaining about 411 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 4: all the things you had to do for your mom, 412 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 4: I get it. 413 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,359 Speaker 3: I get it.
