0:00:53.640 --> 0:00:56.200
<v Speaker 1>talk about something that hits home for me, and it's

0:00:56.280 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, now that I'm a single mom, you know,

0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:02.920
<v Speaker 1>single mom life finding love again, going out on dates

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>and who to date and where to go to find

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>that perfect match. And you know, like I've had so

0:01:08.280 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>many of my own personal experiences when it comes to dating, Okay,

0:01:12.040 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I definitely don't know how to pick them. I am

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:17.240
<v Speaker 1>the worst one when it comes to picking men. I

0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>don't do well. I will say this much. I give

0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:22.680
<v Speaker 1>them all credit because I've been happy, bet or at

0:01:22.720 --> 0:01:26.160
<v Speaker 1>the end. Okay, I'm not really good at it. I've

0:01:26.160 --> 0:01:28.040
<v Speaker 1>seen these people that they find someone and they stick

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 1>to them for like, oh we've been together like twenty years.

0:01:29.840 --> 0:01:32.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm like corn, you bet, I haven't been able to

0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.600
<v Speaker 1>figure I haven't ever been I haven't been able to

0:01:34.640 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>figure it out. So today I just wanted to, you know,

0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:41.360
<v Speaker 1>talk about that, because you know, it's a little bit

0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:44.840
<v Speaker 1>hard dating as a single mother and just dating, you know,

0:01:45.040 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 1>before things have changed. Now I got to think about

0:01:48.360 --> 0:01:52.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, my kids, are my kids gonna like them?

0:01:52.600 --> 0:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>You know? Are you a pervert? Because I got two

0:01:54.600 --> 0:01:57.920
<v Speaker 1>little girls? Are you a pervert? What's that biggest difference

0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:01.080
<v Speaker 1>Amada from like when you were looking for someone before

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:04.160
<v Speaker 1>you had kids. Now. I mean, I'm sure you were

0:02:04.160 --> 0:02:06.720
<v Speaker 1>trying to find a stable relationship back then, but is

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:09.480
<v Speaker 1>it more important? Yeah, you know you're dating when you're

0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:12.360
<v Speaker 1>in your twenties and your mom fun. No, no, no,

0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 1>I've never been that girl. I've never been the games

0:02:14.880 --> 0:02:17.839
<v Speaker 1>is having fun. Everybody comes stretch me out. No, I'm

0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:21.360
<v Speaker 1>not that girl. I want to have a stable relationship.

0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:23.919
<v Speaker 1>So I've always been like a stable relationship type of girl.

0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:26.720
<v Speaker 1>But things are definitely different because now it's like I

0:02:26.720 --> 0:02:29.079
<v Speaker 1>don't have time to waste. I can read the bullshit

0:02:29.120 --> 0:02:31.639
<v Speaker 1>from the beginning, all the red flags I used to

0:02:31.680 --> 0:02:34.160
<v Speaker 1>ignore before, I'm not ignoring them now. I see them.

0:02:34.200 --> 0:02:36.120
<v Speaker 1>I hear them. I see what you're doing. You're trash.

0:02:36.240 --> 0:02:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm out. Before I was like what I see though,

0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:42.359
<v Speaker 1>I can't help him. I feel you used to feel that. Yeah,

0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:45.079
<v Speaker 1>he's just going through a moment. You know, things are bad.

0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:48.760
<v Speaker 1>His eggs girlfriend, let's to traumatize, you know. I was

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 1>very come okay for giving out. No, see what we're

0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:55.040
<v Speaker 1>trying to do, babylone, I don't want to do it.

0:02:55.080 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 1>Get on my face, you know. So now it's like,

0:02:58.760 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 1>if it's not something serious or commitment, I don't want

0:03:00.960 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 1>to do it. If I don't see the fact that

0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:07.360
<v Speaker 1>you have potential to be a stepfather to my daughters,

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:09.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do it. If you're not a

0:03:09.600 --> 0:03:12.120
<v Speaker 1>hard working, ambitious person, I don't want to do it.

0:03:12.440 --> 0:03:14.520
<v Speaker 1>If you don't want to have a family, because that's

0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>another thing, something that's very important. Sometimes there's a lot

0:03:17.160 --> 0:03:19.160
<v Speaker 1>of men that are honest and straightforward and tell you

0:03:19.160 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>to your face. Meta mommy, I like you, but I

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.200
<v Speaker 1>don't want to have kids, Ela Muhanna. We're always pushing.

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:27.400
<v Speaker 1>I can change him, oh Amy. If he doesn't want

0:03:27.440 --> 0:03:28.840
<v Speaker 1>to do he doesn't want to do it, you know.

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.080
<v Speaker 1>So it's important because later on, when you see that

0:03:32.120 --> 0:03:34.400
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't treat your kids or your future children the

0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>way that you want it, you have to be like, well,

0:03:36.200 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 1>he didn't want to do it in the first place.

0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 1>You were the one who had this ideology of what

0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>you wanted. And you have to accept people for who

0:03:42.200 --> 0:03:44.760
<v Speaker 1>they are as they are, and when they show you

0:03:44.800 --> 0:03:47.760
<v Speaker 1>who they are, you have to believe them like they say. So,

0:03:48.960 --> 0:03:53.840
<v Speaker 1>just my standards have completely changed. What has been the

0:03:54.280 --> 0:03:56.440
<v Speaker 1>thing for you in these last couple months? Have you

0:03:56.480 --> 0:03:59.560
<v Speaker 1>been seeing anyone talking twenty one? How hard has that been?

0:03:59.680 --> 0:04:02.280
<v Speaker 1>Are you up front? And obviously you're you're a person

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:05.000
<v Speaker 1>that's in the public eye, so people know you have daughters.

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:08.040
<v Speaker 1>But if a lot of guys believe it or not,

0:04:08.160 --> 0:04:11.560
<v Speaker 1>we're not on Instagram, We're not on you know, out there,

0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 1>you know, looking for stuff. And there's a guy of guys.

0:04:16.640 --> 0:04:18.800
<v Speaker 1>There is a lot of guys who are only on

0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:21.960
<v Speaker 1>Instagram to chill whatever. You know, you have the f

0:04:22.120 --> 0:04:30.080
<v Speaker 1>boys who are on Instagram. Red fag. I have Instagram,

0:04:30.120 --> 0:04:32.880
<v Speaker 1>but I use it to basically talk about the things

0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:36.720
<v Speaker 1>I do in the business, in the industry. I'm not

0:04:36.760 --> 0:04:40.800
<v Speaker 1>in there like looking at us, you know what, I'll no, no,

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.080
<v Speaker 1>don't fuck it. As soon as you find a guy

0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:46.040
<v Speaker 1>and he's like, You're like, oh, babe, so what's your Instagram?

0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh I don't have Instagram. He's like, he's got an

0:04:48.440 --> 0:04:51.800
<v Speaker 1>undercover Instagram. He has an under pitch. That's because he

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:54.240
<v Speaker 1>has his whole girlfriend, he has his whole fucking three

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 1>four kids on the side. Don't believe it. You know,

0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:58.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm so focused in my work, you know I don't.

0:04:58.760 --> 0:05:01.479
<v Speaker 1>I don't use social media. Yeah, I indeed, red flag

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:05.760
<v Speaker 1>bow wow, Alex. He has to have a Snapchat, a

0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:08.960
<v Speaker 1>bootleg Snapchat. He has to have a Facebook, he has

0:05:08.960 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>to have Yeah, no, I have. We all all guys

0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:14.920
<v Speaker 1>have social media, but it's how we use it, right,

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:18.880
<v Speaker 1>that that really separates us. Correct. So you're right, we

0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:20.920
<v Speaker 1>all have social media, but it's how you You only

0:05:20.960 --> 0:05:23.839
<v Speaker 1>use your Instagram for business. You've seen me, you follow me,

0:05:23.880 --> 0:05:26.280
<v Speaker 1>You saw I posted a picture of this. I'm doing

0:05:26.279 --> 0:05:30.600
<v Speaker 1>a convention. That's another red flag that's another red flag. Girls.

0:05:30.640 --> 0:05:32.719
<v Speaker 1>If you follow a guy that you're dating, you like,

0:05:32.960 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 1>and you look at the people that he follows, and

0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:38.360
<v Speaker 1>then he only follows decame man and businesses, it's a trap.

0:05:38.800 --> 0:05:41.679
<v Speaker 1>There's a trap. He's lying. Oh my god, he's probably

0:05:41.720 --> 0:05:43.359
<v Speaker 1>dming them and he's not following them. So that you

0:05:43.360 --> 0:05:45.520
<v Speaker 1>don't fuel suspicions. I know that game. Don't do this.

0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.960
<v Speaker 1>There are social media school for men who are trying

0:05:47.960 --> 0:05:52.800
<v Speaker 1>to like put up a front. Don't follow people like this. Alex, Yes,

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:56.359
<v Speaker 1>there's no way, Alex. You've heard it here. First the

0:05:56.560 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 1>very first thirst trap Instagram I've ever followed, it was

0:06:01.680 --> 0:06:05.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to put that out there publicly everyone. Are

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 1>you using Are you using social media to find dates

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:13.880
<v Speaker 1>and to find potential candidate? I'm gonna be honest. I'm

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:15.560
<v Speaker 1>gonna be honest. My mom said that I shouldn't be

0:06:15.640 --> 0:06:17.520
<v Speaker 1>like that. You assume me home and get me no

0:06:17.640 --> 0:06:22.320
<v Speaker 1>pull up. And but after my last relationship, I have

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:25.640
<v Speaker 1>been traumatized. I haven't gone out on any dates. Um,

0:06:25.680 --> 0:06:28.280
<v Speaker 1>there was someone that was pursuing me and I and

0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:30.400
<v Speaker 1>I gave him like the time of day for like

0:06:30.720 --> 0:06:33.640
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, maybe for like four days and the moment.

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:34.919
<v Speaker 1>First of all, I didn't even like him like that.

0:06:34.960 --> 0:06:36.480
<v Speaker 1>I just didn't. I was just trying to give myself

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>some time, because you know, it feels nice to be

0:06:38.920 --> 0:06:41.320
<v Speaker 1>liked for someone to just be like, oh, lean, a

0:06:41.360 --> 0:06:43.440
<v Speaker 1>good morning text, he goes. But then I was just

0:06:43.520 --> 0:06:45.200
<v Speaker 1>like A, I don't want to do it. No, I

0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:49.840
<v Speaker 1>don't want to do it. I just then milo of

0:06:49.839 --> 0:06:53.120
<v Speaker 1>actually liking someone and getting screwed over again. I just

0:06:53.200 --> 0:06:56.679
<v Speaker 1>want to focus on my kids, my business, my career. Um,

0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:59.320
<v Speaker 1>I have my kids and I haven't had any you know,

0:06:59.360 --> 0:07:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I haven't had no sex. I haven't had no sex

0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 1>since my ex and the last time we did it,

0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:06.760
<v Speaker 1>my girls were like three months or something like that.

0:07:07.200 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>And yeah, like you know, it's it's done. I Um,

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:12.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm not ready. It's difficult. I'm not reading. I think

0:07:12.840 --> 0:07:15.880
<v Speaker 1>it's I think it's important. I think it's important when

0:07:15.880 --> 0:07:19.160
<v Speaker 1>you finish a relationship to take time for yourself. That's

0:07:19.160 --> 0:07:21.360
<v Speaker 1>been one of my biggest mistakes. I've ended up one

0:07:21.400 --> 0:07:25.800
<v Speaker 1>relationship and I jump off. I've just jumped into another

0:07:25.840 --> 0:07:28.000
<v Speaker 1>relationship and I'm like, oh, that's gonna make me feel better,

0:07:28.160 --> 0:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>and it doesn't. You need some time to heal, to

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 1>know your worth, to know your standards, to know exactly

0:07:34.880 --> 0:07:38.480
<v Speaker 1>what it is that you want. But I can as

0:07:38.520 --> 0:07:42.000
<v Speaker 1>your way. So I'm just taking that time for myself now.

0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 1>And I would imagine that now that that you're the

0:07:46.520 --> 0:07:49.360
<v Speaker 1>different priorities. You got your kids and now you know,

0:07:49.400 --> 0:07:51.440
<v Speaker 1>it used to be you were single and you could

0:07:51.480 --> 0:07:53.320
<v Speaker 1>make time to go out and to stay up all

0:07:53.400 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 1>night and to stay over and not do you know,

0:07:56.560 --> 0:07:58.960
<v Speaker 1>well not really because my mom my mom gets you know,

0:07:59.080 --> 0:08:01.120
<v Speaker 1>takes care of my girl girls. And my mom is

0:08:01.160 --> 0:08:12.360
<v Speaker 1>like trying to find a person. So she's like she

0:08:12.400 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 1>always encourages me. Bet Look, I don't know. I just

0:08:18.400 --> 0:08:21.520
<v Speaker 1>have really high standards now, you know, um one of

0:08:21.560 --> 0:08:24.120
<v Speaker 1>my biggest mistakes. And ladies, I know you're out there,

0:08:24.160 --> 0:08:26.320
<v Speaker 1>I know you can relate. A lot of us are fixers.

0:08:26.360 --> 0:08:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm a fixer. Well I used to be a fixer.

0:08:28.960 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 1>I no longer. I'm a fixer. Fixer means you'll find

0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:36.760
<v Speaker 1>broken men and you are trying to fix them, like, oh,

0:08:36.800 --> 0:08:39.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's a cheater, he's a this, he's a

0:08:39.120 --> 0:08:41.280
<v Speaker 1>drug addict. He's like, hey, whatever it is. He just

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:43.640
<v Speaker 1>came out of jail. And you're like, Oh, I love you,

0:08:44.040 --> 0:08:46.320
<v Speaker 1>You're the one for me. I can fix you, let

0:08:46.360 --> 0:08:48.520
<v Speaker 1>me clean you up, let me change your wardrobe. It's

0:08:48.520 --> 0:08:51.199
<v Speaker 1>like a project, you know, let me find you. You

0:08:51.240 --> 0:08:52.920
<v Speaker 1>ain't got no job and you haven't worked in the

0:08:52.920 --> 0:08:55.840
<v Speaker 1>past five years, but I don't worry. I'm gonna maintain you.

0:08:55.920 --> 0:08:58.920
<v Speaker 1>To you, I can get you a job, and it's like, no, mommy, listen,

0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:01.959
<v Speaker 1>you have to find people that are up to your standards,

0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:04.679
<v Speaker 1>get monival in order for things to work, either your

0:09:04.800 --> 0:09:07.480
<v Speaker 1>level or better. But you can be out here looking

0:09:07.480 --> 0:09:12.040
<v Speaker 1>for people that don't know what they wanted. That's just

0:09:12.400 --> 0:09:16.600
<v Speaker 1>straight to disaster. So I'm just choosing and picking a

0:09:16.600 --> 0:09:27.079
<v Speaker 1>little bit more wisely this time around. By picking a

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:30.480
<v Speaker 1>little wisely and looking into the future of what you

0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>want to set yourself success in a relationship as as

0:09:34.880 --> 0:09:38.800
<v Speaker 1>a mom newly single mom in the after you had

0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:41.920
<v Speaker 1>your little fling with your ex when they were you know, younger,

0:09:41.960 --> 0:09:44.280
<v Speaker 1>the babies were three months old, Like you mentioned before,

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:49.280
<v Speaker 1>has there been anybody like any steps that you've made

0:09:49.880 --> 0:09:54.839
<v Speaker 1>to find um a specific partner or to even talk

0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 1>to someone, and how do you go about it? Then?

0:09:57.520 --> 0:09:59.520
<v Speaker 1>Because you, like I was mentioning before, is that you're

0:09:59.520 --> 0:10:01.960
<v Speaker 1>in the public guy, so people know you have kids.

0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Let's say, are you still putting it out there? Like, hey, listen,

0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't mind talking to you, but I do have

0:10:08.160 --> 0:10:10.760
<v Speaker 1>a priority. I have these two daughters, da da What

0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:15.520
<v Speaker 1>do you how do you go about that? See, I

0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:17.760
<v Speaker 1>am a mother first and then I am a woman.

0:10:17.880 --> 0:10:21.160
<v Speaker 1>So my kids are a priority. If you don't like it,

0:10:21.200 --> 0:10:23.120
<v Speaker 1>if you don't like it, if we're on a date

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:25.439
<v Speaker 1>and you know I have to go see my kids,

0:10:25.480 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 1>if we're here today and I have to take a

0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:30.360
<v Speaker 1>flight to see my kids, blah blah. Listen. Uh, you know,

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:32.560
<v Speaker 1>if you like me, you should understand and you should

0:10:32.559 --> 0:10:35.199
<v Speaker 1>be actually grateful to see that I'm such a good mother.

0:10:35.200 --> 0:10:36.760
<v Speaker 1>Because if I'm a good mother, you'll know that I

0:10:36.720 --> 0:10:38.559
<v Speaker 1>would be a good wife, I'll be a good daughter,

0:10:38.600 --> 0:10:43.520
<v Speaker 1>I'll be a good friend, I'll be many good things. Um,

0:10:43.960 --> 0:10:47.320
<v Speaker 1>you know that's just the worst to me. So yeah,

0:10:47.360 --> 0:10:49.640
<v Speaker 1>I always put it up front. Listen, Um, I have kids.

0:10:49.760 --> 0:10:51.920
<v Speaker 1>They're my priority. I am in love with my kids.

0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I am in and it's not just my kid, it's

0:10:53.960 --> 0:10:56.120
<v Speaker 1>my mother. My mother is my first child, that's my

0:10:56.160 --> 0:10:58.880
<v Speaker 1>oldest daughter. And then I got two newborns, So if

0:10:58.920 --> 0:11:01.240
<v Speaker 1>you could stick with it, I'm down. It's buy one,

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.600
<v Speaker 1>get three free and not not really because they come

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:07.720
<v Speaker 1>out really expensive, so it's it's a combo deal. And

0:11:08.880 --> 0:11:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I do. I will say this much. I haven't been

0:11:11.520 --> 0:11:15.079
<v Speaker 1>on a date since I end up my last relationship.

0:11:15.440 --> 0:11:20.920
<v Speaker 1>I have been on certain dating apps like Rya and

0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:25.200
<v Speaker 1>um I do. I have found that I'd like to,

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:27.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, to just send messages back and forth, like

0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:30.960
<v Speaker 1>I like to feel that I'm liked. It doesn't mean

0:11:31.000 --> 0:11:32.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna do anything. I don't even know where you live.

0:11:32.800 --> 0:11:34.960

0:11:51.120 --> 0:11:54.960

0:11:55.040 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 1>Rya you have to get approved is not that get

0:11:57.160 --> 0:11:59.480
<v Speaker 1>like that. You have to get approved, the background checking,

0:11:59.520 --> 0:12:04.640
<v Speaker 1>the line, and it's mainly for people in the entertainment industry. UM,

0:12:04.840 --> 0:12:07.320
<v Speaker 1>whether it is that you're an athlete, you're an artist,

0:12:07.400 --> 0:12:11.520
<v Speaker 1>your producer, your engineer, you're UM, whatever it may be.

<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of entrepreneurs on this app as well,

0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and like because you can also go to their Instagram

0:12:16.960 --> 0:12:19.480
<v Speaker 1>right there and verify if you're full of crap or

0:12:19.520 --> 0:12:22.040
<v Speaker 1>this is really what you do. UM, I've met great

0:12:22.040 --> 0:12:26.400
<v Speaker 1>people through there and just through just to talking better.

0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:29.600

<v Speaker 1>Do you do you feel like like this and you've

0:12:34.200 --> 0:12:36.760
<v Speaker 1>you've done the I don't need to be on a

0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.600
<v Speaker 1>dating site or dating app to find a date. Do

0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:43.760
<v Speaker 1>you feel like it's a lot easier for you as

0:12:43.800 --> 0:12:47.520
<v Speaker 1>a single mom to meet people. Is it safer for

0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:49.480
<v Speaker 1>you to meet people through these apps or whatever, or

0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:51.400
<v Speaker 1>or do you feel like you still need that connection

0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 1>where if you go out you might bump into someone

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:58.840
<v Speaker 1>or flirt with someone. Yeah, the app, the app, the app,

0:12:59.640 --> 0:13:02.199
<v Speaker 1>you just with people in face to face in general,

0:13:02.320 --> 0:13:04.680
<v Speaker 1>and you prefer to meet them afterwards after you've done

0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:08.760
<v Speaker 1>your inspections. If I see you in person and there's

<v Speaker 1>a vibe and there's a clique, I'm in I love it. Cool.

0:13:12.480 --> 0:13:14.600

0:13:14.600 --> 0:13:16.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna tell you why. It gives me an opportunity

0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:18.720
<v Speaker 1>to not waste my time in person. I can talk

0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:20.600

0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 1>your vibe, if we have an understanding too. I also

0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:25.880
<v Speaker 1>get the opportunity of doing my research on your social media,

0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:28.240
<v Speaker 1>for example, do you have a baby mom? Do you

0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:30.000
<v Speaker 1>have a girlfriend, dadda? Who are you texting? Who are

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.520
<v Speaker 1>you liking? Are you commenting? Who's this like? It gives

0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:34.600
<v Speaker 1>me a chance to figure out what's going on and

0:13:34.720 --> 0:13:37.920
<v Speaker 1>if you have approved. If I've approved and you pass

0:13:38.040 --> 0:13:41.040
<v Speaker 1>all these standards, this is like, what is a fear

0:13:41.080 --> 0:13:44.080

<v Speaker 1>They should be taking us out, and I just ladies,

0:14:33.520 --> 0:14:37.080

0:14:37.120 --> 0:14:38.920
<v Speaker 1>when they see you, they go over there with a

0:14:39.000 --> 0:14:41.720
<v Speaker 1>mission and their goal. Their goal is to pursue you

0:14:42.680 --> 0:14:45.160
<v Speaker 1>and persuade you so they can figure out a way

0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:47.040
<v Speaker 1>how to stick it to you. So you're just paying

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:57.800
<v Speaker 1>the game. Mamma learned to play the game. Take pictures

0:14:57.800 --> 0:15:00.000
<v Speaker 1>and videos of everything, but don't take pictures of him.

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.240
<v Speaker 1>I posted a liber best. Is this the new advice?

0:15:02.320 --> 0:15:04.360

0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:17.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't think most of us are dating RYA's style,

0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:20.440
<v Speaker 1>that's true, but you know what I listen. A lot

0:15:20.480 --> 0:15:22.680

<v Speaker 1>know where I'm coming from. You know what I mean.

0:15:24.920 --> 0:15:27.000
<v Speaker 1>And I'm sure there's more than one girl out there

0:15:27.040 --> 0:15:28.880
<v Speaker 1>that's gone on a date with a guy just to

0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.720
<v Speaker 1>eat and drink and never hog them again. The same thing.

0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:33.720
<v Speaker 1>Guys are the same thing. They take you out, they

0:15:33.760 --> 0:15:36.479
<v Speaker 1>feed you, they give you drinks, they try to smash.

0:15:36.560 --> 0:15:43.320
<v Speaker 1>If they get to smash, they never call you again. Listen, listen.

0:15:44.440 --> 0:15:45.920

0:15:45.960 --> 0:15:48.360
<v Speaker 1>too late because I'm still alive. I don't know. It's

0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:52.600
<v Speaker 1>a doggy dog world, I guess right. Dating in the

0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:56.280
<v Speaker 1>modern world. I'm laughing and I'm talking shit, but it

0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.960
<v Speaker 1>honestly is very trash and it's very sad, because do

0:15:59.000 --> 0:16:00.440
<v Speaker 1>you think I really want to do that now? I

0:16:00.440 --> 0:16:02.000
<v Speaker 1>would love to go out on a date and actually

0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:05.800
<v Speaker 1>meet someone meaningful and create something from that. But as

0:16:05.840 --> 0:16:09.080
<v Speaker 1>many games as men play these days, because they have

0:16:09.280 --> 0:16:12.240
<v Speaker 1>they have way too many options, way too much out

0:16:12.280 --> 0:16:15.280
<v Speaker 1>it's like they got they have a catalog women on Instagram.

0:16:15.280 --> 0:16:17.360
<v Speaker 1>That's what social media has become, as a catalog. You

0:16:17.400 --> 0:16:19.400
<v Speaker 1>pick them, you slat up in their DM, they talk

0:16:19.480 --> 0:16:21.880
<v Speaker 1>to you, exchange numbers, and next thing you know, even

0:16:21.920 --> 0:16:23.320
<v Speaker 1>and they're on the other side of the world. They're

0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:26.320
<v Speaker 1>taking flights or you're buying flights. It's you know, what

0:16:26.520 --> 0:16:30.200
<v Speaker 1>love used to be has changed. Relationships have changed the

0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:32.400
<v Speaker 1>fact of being with someone and putting up with their

0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:34.520
<v Speaker 1>ship and sticking it through and I'm gonna ride with

0:16:34.560 --> 0:16:35.880
<v Speaker 1>you and even though I'm pissed off at you and

0:16:35.920 --> 0:16:37.480
<v Speaker 1>i don't want to talk to you, go to the

0:16:37.520 --> 0:16:39.720
<v Speaker 1>next room, but we're not leaving each other. Week said

0:16:39.720 --> 0:16:41.360
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna do this, and this is what we're doing,

0:16:41.400 --> 0:16:44.360
<v Speaker 1>and all those things have changed, and it's very hard,

0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:47.600
<v Speaker 1>especially with this new generation. So well, the new generation

0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:49.720
<v Speaker 1>just makes it very difficult. I'm gonna Last year, there

0:16:49.760 --> 0:16:52.560
<v Speaker 1>was a poll that was taken that there's more single

0:16:52.680 --> 0:16:58.480
<v Speaker 1>men now than ever before because women have higher standards

0:16:58.880 --> 0:17:01.080
<v Speaker 1>because now they don't have to support of it, like

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.400
<v Speaker 1>they don't have to get married to, you know, have

0:17:03.480 --> 0:17:06.440
<v Speaker 1>a best financially stable, they don't need a man to

0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.120
<v Speaker 1>take care of them, and now they have more standards.

0:17:09.160 --> 0:17:19.680
<v Speaker 1>What do you think about that? I think I agree

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.080
<v Speaker 1>to a certain example of the book all the way.

0:17:22.119 --> 0:17:23.639
<v Speaker 1>You know why, because a lot of men are single

0:17:23.640 --> 0:17:25.920
<v Speaker 1>because they have way too many options, Like you know

0:17:25.960 --> 0:17:28.000
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. Yes, a lot of women have high standards,

0:17:28.040 --> 0:17:30.080
<v Speaker 1>But why would I be in if I was a

0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:32.440
<v Speaker 1>man with a whole piece right, and I'm sure I

0:17:32.440 --> 0:17:35.000
<v Speaker 1>would have a nice wokando, if I was a man

0:17:35.160 --> 0:17:38.040
<v Speaker 1>with a whole dingling, why would I be in a

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:40.960
<v Speaker 1>relationship with a girl? These girls these days, you're giving

0:17:41.000 --> 0:17:44.159
<v Speaker 1>the wife thees, You're giving the wife the quality of

0:17:44.280 --> 0:17:51.000
<v Speaker 1>girl at home. I need money like you do everything

0:17:51.000 --> 0:17:52.600
<v Speaker 1>a wife would do. Why would I be in a

0:17:52.640 --> 0:17:54.280
<v Speaker 1>relationship with you when I could be with you you

0:17:54.400 --> 0:17:58.560
<v Speaker 1>you you you, And even before the in the dating

0:17:58.800 --> 0:18:02.640
<v Speaker 1>in the dating aspect dating era, girls are still doing

0:18:02.680 --> 0:18:04.840
<v Speaker 1>the same thing a girlfriend would do. And girlfriends are

0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:06.520
<v Speaker 1>doing the things that a wife would do, So why

0:18:06.520 --> 0:18:09.120
<v Speaker 1>would they feel the need to commit to you? Why?

0:18:09.359 --> 0:18:12.280
<v Speaker 1>So That's why I'm like, Yeah, if I was a guy,

0:18:12.320 --> 0:18:13.920
<v Speaker 1>would probably be the same do the same thing. I

0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:15.720
<v Speaker 1>would just be single and day A hope. Bunch of

0:18:15.760 --> 0:18:18.320
<v Speaker 1>women I have I have. I don't necessarily have to

0:18:18.520 --> 0:18:21.760
<v Speaker 1>have a commitment with you. I'm not obligated to do

0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:23.720
<v Speaker 1>certain things for you because you're not my wife or

0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:25.960
<v Speaker 1>you're not my girlfriend. And then that's it. And then

0:18:26.000 --> 0:18:28.320
<v Speaker 1>women want to feel like they got options. They want

0:18:28.320 --> 0:18:29.919
<v Speaker 1>to mess with this guy, messed with the other guy,

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:33.600
<v Speaker 1>messed with the other guy from here, dinner from here,

0:18:33.640 --> 0:18:37.760
<v Speaker 1>and everybody's just playing games. And I feel that people

0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:40.840
<v Speaker 1>realize that they have messed up and life has changed.

0:18:40.880 --> 0:18:43.320
<v Speaker 1>The older you get, the older you get, the more

0:18:43.359 --> 0:18:46.679
<v Speaker 1>you realize, I've wasted these good years of my life

0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:49.880
<v Speaker 1>playing around, and now I don't have my solid significant other.

0:18:50.440 --> 0:18:52.840
<v Speaker 1>You know, when you're young, do they get a moon though?

0:18:52.880 --> 0:18:55.240
<v Speaker 1>You just want to have fun. But a time passes by. God,

0:18:56.480 --> 0:18:58.800
<v Speaker 1>you're sick, or something is really happening, something is really

0:18:58.840 --> 0:19:01.240
<v Speaker 1>going down. You're going through the press, should or whatever,

0:19:01.720 --> 0:19:04.199
<v Speaker 1>and you realize that you don't really have anybody to

0:19:04.240 --> 0:19:06.879
<v Speaker 1>hold you down that's really gonna be there with you

0:19:06.920 --> 0:19:08.960
<v Speaker 1>to the good and the bad. That's when you realize

0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:10.720
<v Speaker 1>that you messed up. And I don't also want to

0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:12.760
<v Speaker 1>give that. I want to say this for the girls

0:19:12.760 --> 0:19:15.800
<v Speaker 1>that are listening, for the guys as well. None of

0:19:15.880 --> 0:19:18.879
<v Speaker 1>us are born bad. It's always this one person that

0:19:18.960 --> 0:19:21.720
<v Speaker 1>makes you bad. I know a lot of good men

0:19:21.800 --> 0:19:29.920
<v Speaker 1>out there. There's been great men. Marry me him up

0:19:31.000 --> 0:19:35.680
<v Speaker 1>one HOI Sacto messes them up. Yeah, now you traumatize

0:19:35.680 --> 0:19:38.240
<v Speaker 1>them and now they get in bang goad with everybody else.

0:19:38.520 --> 0:19:40.399
<v Speaker 1>The same thing goes for women. There's a lot of

0:19:40.480 --> 0:19:50.240
<v Speaker 1>great women out there. Lament that you destroy her confidence,

0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:53.639
<v Speaker 1>you cheat, you lie, you this, you that now she

0:19:53.800 --> 0:19:56.800
<v Speaker 1>wants and now she's turned into a different type of woman.

0:19:57.160 --> 0:19:59.320
<v Speaker 1>And now she's you know, encouraging other women to do

0:19:59.400 --> 0:20:01.080
<v Speaker 1>the same. And now oh, it's a domino effect of

0:20:01.240 --> 0:20:05.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, they say, they say that the person you're

0:20:05.160 --> 0:20:08.359
<v Speaker 1>dating ends up suffering from the person you dated before,

0:20:08.480 --> 0:20:11.520
<v Speaker 1>like the trauma that they gave you. You end up,

0:20:11.720 --> 0:20:13.639
<v Speaker 1>you know, passing it on to the person you're dating,

0:20:13.720 --> 0:20:16.240
<v Speaker 1>or you're taking it out on them. I've heard that expression.

0:20:17.880 --> 0:20:21.119
<v Speaker 1>I have a question for you, um in In. In

0:20:21.359 --> 0:20:23.880
<v Speaker 1>your line of work, you meet a lot of people.

0:20:23.960 --> 0:20:26.920
<v Speaker 1>You're always out and about right, so you know you're

0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:28.960
<v Speaker 1>able to give As a new mom, you're able to

0:20:28.960 --> 0:20:32.800
<v Speaker 1>give some advice to whomever it may be listening to

0:20:32.840 --> 0:20:36.359
<v Speaker 1>this is also a new mother. Do you feel it's okay,

0:20:37.040 --> 0:20:41.000
<v Speaker 1>um for moms to also just new moms take care

0:20:41.000 --> 0:20:44.639
<v Speaker 1>of themselves to kind of keep Hey, yes, I have kids.

0:20:44.680 --> 0:20:46.400
<v Speaker 1>This person that I'm going to meet up with doesn't

0:20:46.440 --> 0:20:50.520
<v Speaker 1>need to know, you know, crap and look like they

0:20:50.560 --> 0:20:52.439
<v Speaker 1>just want to have fun but they don't want to

0:20:52.440 --> 0:20:55.880
<v Speaker 1>look for nothing serious. So do you feel yourself that

0:20:55.960 --> 0:20:58.479
<v Speaker 1>it's okay for women to also play the game like

0:20:58.520 --> 0:21:00.479
<v Speaker 1>that as a single mother to just keep it low?

0:21:00.560 --> 0:21:02.600
<v Speaker 1>Those are because she's doing She's the best mother ever.

0:21:02.640 --> 0:21:04.280
<v Speaker 1>She takes care of them, but she's still going out,

0:21:04.680 --> 0:21:12.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, so side piece seeing. But yeah, judgment free zone.

0:21:12.560 --> 0:21:14.480
<v Speaker 1>This is me being exactly I'm out on this is

0:21:14.520 --> 0:21:16.919
<v Speaker 1>exactly my opinion. But everybody has the rights to live

0:21:16.960 --> 0:21:19.120
<v Speaker 1>their life because I don't pay your bills and I'm

0:21:19.200 --> 0:21:20.919
<v Speaker 1>definitely not gonna go to your house to screw you.

0:21:21.000 --> 0:21:24.080
<v Speaker 1>So listen, Yes, you have the right to live your

0:21:24.080 --> 0:21:26.040
<v Speaker 1>best life if you want to be on the low

0:21:26.080 --> 0:21:28.080
<v Speaker 1>because you and you're being a good mother by you know,

0:21:28.160 --> 0:21:30.440
<v Speaker 1>keeping one thing away from the other. Your babies don't

0:21:30.440 --> 0:21:32.200
<v Speaker 1>have to know you're a guy that you're having fun with.

0:21:32.280 --> 0:21:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Does don't have to know, and you go out there,

0:21:34.520 --> 0:21:36.800
<v Speaker 1>you have fun and live your best life. You have

0:21:36.840 --> 0:21:39.920
<v Speaker 1>the rights too. Personally, I don't move like that one.

0:21:40.000 --> 0:21:42.159
<v Speaker 1>Because I'm a public figure. I have to be careful.

0:21:42.200 --> 0:21:44.280
<v Speaker 1>I have to take care of myself too, because I'm

0:21:44.280 --> 0:21:46.600
<v Speaker 1>a mother three, because anything that I do, I could

0:21:46.600 --> 0:21:48.760
<v Speaker 1>be I could just finished, take a little nap and

0:21:48.840 --> 0:21:50.639
<v Speaker 1>next thing, I know, my picture, my naked picture is

0:21:50.680 --> 0:21:52.960
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter. You don't know. So you have to be

0:21:53.040 --> 0:21:55.600
<v Speaker 1>very very cautious of everything that you do. You know that,

0:21:55.720 --> 0:21:58.560
<v Speaker 1>um I was. I won't mention too many details, but

0:21:58.600 --> 0:22:04.040
<v Speaker 1>I have been with people or someone that I literally

0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.680
<v Speaker 1>you know me trusting you m At one point, they

0:22:07.720 --> 0:22:10.720
<v Speaker 1>text me a picture of me naked sleeping in the

0:22:10.800 --> 0:22:12.919
<v Speaker 1>bed and they're like, oh, that's you last night, And

0:22:12.960 --> 0:22:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, yeah, I know it was me last night,

0:22:14.640 --> 0:22:16.399
<v Speaker 1>But why would you take a picture of that, Like

0:22:16.440 --> 0:22:18.120
<v Speaker 1>why would you say, oh, I have a whole bunch

0:22:18.119 --> 0:22:20.800
<v Speaker 1>of those. So you are with someone thinking that's a

0:22:20.880 --> 0:22:25.159
<v Speaker 1>major violation. You're comfortable going to sleep, and it's like,

0:22:25.160 --> 0:22:27.400
<v Speaker 1>I trust you. We just finished being you know, intimate,

0:22:27.680 --> 0:22:29.960
<v Speaker 1>and next thing I know, you have a whole collage

0:22:30.359 --> 0:22:33.119
<v Speaker 1>of naked pictures of me. While I've been sleeping, So

0:22:33.640 --> 0:22:35.919
<v Speaker 1>you have to be careful, you know, you have to

0:22:35.960 --> 0:22:37.679
<v Speaker 1>be careful the way that you move. And if that

0:22:37.760 --> 0:22:40.400
<v Speaker 1>was just me sleeping, god knows, if we were doing

0:22:40.440 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 1>it and you record and I didn't even know, you know,

0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:45.080
<v Speaker 1>you just you have to be very, very careful and

0:22:45.200 --> 0:22:47.919
<v Speaker 1>very selective these days. It just is what it is,

0:22:48.000 --> 0:22:51.280
<v Speaker 1>you know. Um So yeah, personally, I have a vibrator

0:22:51.320 --> 0:22:53.200
<v Speaker 1>and I'm happy with my vibrator. I actually bought me

0:22:53.240 --> 0:22:57.040
<v Speaker 1>another woman with it. It works, it's rechargeable. Look, I

0:22:57.080 --> 0:23:00.320
<v Speaker 1>don't even have to buy the batteries no more. I

0:23:00.400 --> 0:23:02.840
<v Speaker 1>take it in my purse. I take it in my purse.

0:23:02.840 --> 0:23:04.960
<v Speaker 1>If I'm driving nine andy five and I feel horny,

0:23:05.080 --> 0:23:07.760
<v Speaker 1>this is a handle myself. You keep it pushing elfe

0:23:07.840 --> 0:23:09.480
<v Speaker 1>is good. I don't have to worry about cheating. I

0:23:09.520 --> 0:23:13.560
<v Speaker 1>don't get pregnant, no STDs, and I my spot one

0:23:13.640 --> 0:23:17.679
<v Speaker 1>two three. That is great advice for new mothers as well,

0:23:17.680 --> 0:23:20.480
<v Speaker 1>because we've been playing both sides of defense here. We've

0:23:20.480 --> 0:23:22.600
<v Speaker 1>been playing with the let's keep it a secret, right,

0:23:22.920 --> 0:23:24.840
<v Speaker 1>let's let's do whatever you want. You also have the

0:23:24.880 --> 0:23:27.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be up front and still do my thing

0:23:27.560 --> 0:23:29.600
<v Speaker 1>and still, you know, like yourself, who's who was a

0:23:29.640 --> 0:23:33.080
<v Speaker 1>public figure. But yes, you're a hundred percent correct. There

0:23:33.119 --> 0:23:37.240
<v Speaker 1>shouldn't be any shame in that, whether you're a male

0:23:37.680 --> 0:23:39.800
<v Speaker 1>or female. If you're going to be doing, you know,

0:23:39.840 --> 0:23:43.359
<v Speaker 1>taking care of yourself, that's self care. Nobody should be

0:23:43.359 --> 0:23:52.639
<v Speaker 1>telling you. I agree, Mina. There's a lot of st

0:23:52.920 --> 0:23:54.879
<v Speaker 1>and it is what it is. So you have to

0:23:54.920 --> 0:24:02.240
<v Speaker 1>be careful being protected, hailing, protect the hangling because you're

0:24:02.280 --> 0:24:03.879
<v Speaker 1>gonna want to be fine and set out here in

0:24:03.880 --> 0:24:07.680
<v Speaker 1>the streets. You can't live your life this way, so

0:24:08.000 --> 0:24:11.520
<v Speaker 1>by a little machine one hundred dollars, the good ones,

0:24:12.119 --> 0:24:14.760
<v Speaker 1>it don't work, one hundred dollars. The good ones, you

0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.119
<v Speaker 1>handle it and you keep it pushing and you're focusing

0:24:17.200 --> 0:24:18.919
<v Speaker 1>until you find the right one. I don't know if

0:24:18.920 --> 0:24:21.840
<v Speaker 1>we talked about this last season, but when I was

0:24:21.960 --> 0:24:24.720
<v Speaker 1>dating back in the day, I would always ask a

0:24:24.800 --> 0:24:26.560
<v Speaker 1>new guy that I was about to be intimate with

0:24:26.720 --> 0:24:29.000
<v Speaker 1>to go get an STD test and to send me

0:24:29.080 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 1>the results. And I remember sha that with my friends

0:24:32.080 --> 0:24:33.920
<v Speaker 1>and they were like, what the hell is wrong with you?

0:24:34.000 --> 0:24:37.040
<v Speaker 1>And I thought I thought nobody was doing money. Yeah,

0:24:37.119 --> 0:24:39.080
<v Speaker 1>I've done it. I did it with my ex. I

0:24:39.119 --> 0:24:41.560
<v Speaker 1>did it with my with my EXX. We actually went

0:24:41.600 --> 0:24:43.919
<v Speaker 1>together with my ex. We did it. We did it

0:24:43.960 --> 0:24:47.159
<v Speaker 1>on meen and you know, like I might lie. You know,

0:24:47.480 --> 0:24:51.360
<v Speaker 1>my ex was never fun of using you know, condoms

0:24:51.440 --> 0:24:54.320
<v Speaker 1>or anything like that. Um And the first time around

0:24:54.320 --> 0:24:56.439
<v Speaker 1>it did happen, you know, and I did panic. I

0:24:56.520 --> 0:24:59.840
<v Speaker 1>panicked immediately, not just because of that, but also be

0:25:00.000 --> 0:25:02.439
<v Speaker 1>because I know that I'm a very fertile person and

0:25:02.840 --> 0:25:05.320
<v Speaker 1>I need to be concerned. So the moment I was like,

0:25:05.440 --> 0:25:08.480
<v Speaker 1>oh my gosh, let's go figure out what's happening. But yeah,

0:25:08.520 --> 0:25:10.359
<v Speaker 1>I think getting tests it should be the same way

0:25:10.400 --> 0:25:14.440
<v Speaker 1>that they had the the COVID test test, that you

0:25:14.480 --> 0:25:16.200
<v Speaker 1>could just have it at test. I think the people

0:25:16.240 --> 0:25:17.560
<v Speaker 1>you should just be able to go to the walk

0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:20.720
<v Speaker 1>into whatever you buy, a little thing you swab or whatever,

0:25:20.760 --> 0:25:22.359
<v Speaker 1>p on it, look at it and if we just

0:25:22.400 --> 0:25:24.280
<v Speaker 1>sit there and watch, that's it. You're clear. You're clear.

0:25:24.320 --> 0:25:29.119
<v Speaker 1>Come on, let's go. Here we go. Lady. That's entrepreneur.

0:25:29.200 --> 0:25:31.399
<v Speaker 1>You need an investor. You should. Yeah, you should have

0:25:31.520 --> 0:25:34.520
<v Speaker 1>it at home a CD test because they do sell them.

0:25:34.560 --> 0:25:37.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure they do. Where you where you should be

0:25:37.280 --> 0:25:39.600
<v Speaker 1>able We could look that up where we where you

0:25:39.640 --> 0:25:42.680
<v Speaker 1>should be able as as a partnership. You want to

0:25:42.720 --> 0:25:45.400
<v Speaker 1>be safe. They want to be safe. You're a new mother,

0:25:45.840 --> 0:25:54.240
<v Speaker 1>you definitely want to be safe. No matter what is.

0:25:54.320 --> 0:25:57.800
<v Speaker 1>What is everyone's today's take home? What are they taking

0:25:57.880 --> 0:26:01.760
<v Speaker 1>home today? You know, if I have to give a takeaway,

0:26:01.920 --> 0:26:04.880
<v Speaker 1>I would say for all the single mothers out there,

0:26:05.160 --> 0:26:08.040
<v Speaker 1>you have the rights to relive your life, to have fun,

0:26:08.480 --> 0:26:11.200
<v Speaker 1>to be young, to explore, to do all the things

0:26:11.240 --> 0:26:13.879
<v Speaker 1>that you want. Obviously, be careful. There's a lot of

0:26:13.960 --> 0:26:15.800
<v Speaker 1>crazy men out here. There's a lot of crazy people

0:26:15.840 --> 0:26:17.440
<v Speaker 1>out there, and if you just come out of being

0:26:17.480 --> 0:26:20.959
<v Speaker 1>in a relationship, obviously you're a single mother, be very

0:26:21.080 --> 0:26:25.399
<v Speaker 1>careful who you choose to be your significant other moving forward,

0:26:25.720 --> 0:26:28.080
<v Speaker 1>think about your kids first. There's a lot of crazy

0:26:28.119 --> 0:26:29.919
<v Speaker 1>people out here that they may seem cool as hell,

0:26:30.240 --> 0:26:31.600
<v Speaker 1>but we see them. We see a lot of these

0:26:31.680 --> 0:26:35.680
<v Speaker 1>stepfathers or these girlfriend boyfriends that you leave your kids with,

0:26:36.119 --> 0:26:38.520
<v Speaker 1>and they may do malicious things to your child. I

0:26:38.680 --> 0:26:41.119
<v Speaker 1>recently saw a guy that poured boiling water on a

0:26:41.200 --> 0:26:45.120
<v Speaker 1>little girl's mouth and all types of stuff. People don't

0:26:45.119 --> 0:26:47.680
<v Speaker 1>have the same patience that you do for your children,

0:26:48.000 --> 0:26:50.800
<v Speaker 1>So you have to be a mother first and then

0:26:51.119 --> 0:26:53.240
<v Speaker 1>you are a woman. I know there's a little bit

0:26:53.320 --> 0:26:55.440
<v Speaker 1>hard to adapt and to process for a lot of women,

0:26:55.680 --> 0:26:58.240
<v Speaker 1>but life has changed for you because now your priorities

0:26:58.280 --> 0:27:00.720
<v Speaker 1>are your children. So I don't say is have fun,

0:27:01.240 --> 0:27:04.280
<v Speaker 1>live your best life, but remember to be a mother

0:27:04.400 --> 0:27:09.560
<v Speaker 1>first and then a woman. Choose wisely. That is great

0:27:10.080 --> 0:27:15.639
<v Speaker 1>to hear, and as a male, that is what you

0:27:15.920 --> 0:27:20.119
<v Speaker 1>want to hear from it. If you're into wanting to

0:27:20.280 --> 0:27:23.480
<v Speaker 1>date a single mom, if you love kids, because there

0:27:23.560 --> 0:27:25.520
<v Speaker 1>are guys out there that really want to be with

0:27:25.680 --> 0:27:28.480
<v Speaker 1>someone like you, that is what you want to hear.

0:27:28.800 --> 0:27:31.000
<v Speaker 1>That is perfect. I can't even put it better myself.

0:27:31.280 --> 0:27:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Today's episode has been lit. I absolutely really enjoyed it.

0:27:34.800 --> 0:27:36.639

0:27:48.840 --> 0:27:50.879
