And I told him about how 175 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,520 Speaker 4: my boyfriend takes me for granted. Little did I know 176 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 4: my boyfriend's seventeen year old sister was catfishing me. Now, 177 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 4: for those of you that's like me that thought that 178 00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:36,040 Speaker 4: catfishing was a sport in the Mississippian riverbanks, and let 179 00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 4: me help you understand something. Catfishing is when someone pretends 180 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,000 Speaker 4: to be someone else without your knowledge to get you 181 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: to perform some type of act, could get you to 182 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 4: talk or make a commitment with I am keeping from 183 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 4: you whole time their real identity. That's basically what catfishing is. 184 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 4: The boyfriend's seventeen year old girl sent a picture to 185 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 4: her saying this is who I am, and I met 186 00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,520 Speaker 4: you at a place she was speaking at and that's 187 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 4: what the catfish began. But because they didn't get on 188 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 4: the phone and have no verbal or face time, see 189 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 4: face timing stops all this. But because they didn't do 190 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:19,040 Speaker 4: no face timing, now you was communicating with his seventeen 191 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,680 Speaker 4: year old sister who was catfishing you because she don't 192 00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 4: like you anyway. And don't be surprised if your boyfriend 193 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 4: didn't put her up to it, because he was jealous 194 00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,720 Speaker 4: of you anyway. So he probably had his little sister 195 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 4: do this to set you up because he ain't trying 196 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:42,959 Speaker 4: to marry you all the way. He been suspicious that 197 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 4: you anyway, so now he thought he was busted, and 198 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 4: you said, I'm so busted. My boyfriend broke up with me. 199 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 4: I tried to reason with him, but then I realized 200 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 4: I'm too old for games. I did not cheat or 201 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:58,400 Speaker 4: do anything terrible. Should I stop fighting for this relationship? 202 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 4: Shirley said you should, and you know what, I agree 203 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,720 Speaker 4: with her one hundred percent, because what you're fighting folk, 204 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,240 Speaker 4: you ain't got time for these games.
