So I 309 00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 3: played that until twelfth grade, ended up hurting my knee, 310 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 3: and I you know, pivoted from that. So basically, how 311 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,959 Speaker 3: I really really deep dived into like the whole fitness thing, 312 00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: which really the moment when I went independent, you know 313 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,480 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Because to me, it was a thing 314 00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 3: of like, you know, I need to take my power back. 315 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 3: I was on the journey of like you know, self reflection, 316 00:13:31,720 --> 00:13:34,680 Speaker 3: self understanding. You know what I'm saying, like tapping into 317 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 3: the deepest parts of myself, shatting things, unlearning a lot 318 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 3: of stuff. 319 00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:40,719 Speaker 4: So for me, it was more so spiritual. You know 320 00:13:40,760 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 4: what I'm saying. 321 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 3: It's not just me and the gym just working out, 322 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 3: but this is like this weight is representation of what 323 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 3: life is. Can I move this? Can I lift it? 324 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 3: Can I push through? Can I do it again? Can 325 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 3: I get back up? And that's what became my mindset. 326 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 3: And so to me, I believe in becoming and being 327 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 3: the highest version of yourself while I'm on the street 328 00:13:58,880 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 3: dimensional plane I'm saying. So, so I approached it like that. 329 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:05,679 Speaker 3: It was mainly just like, all right, man, I won't 330 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 3: take my power back, you know what I'm saying.

You know, you know 510 00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, important to your love life or whatever 511 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 3: that looks like for you. But stuff like that, like 512 00:22:06,960 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 3: that allows her to have space and freedom to feel 513 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,400 Speaker 3: like she ain't gonna be judged for doing anything. It's like, nah, man, 514 00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 3: it's all love. And you know, I got the kids, 515 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 3: and I know you got the kids. 516 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:16,720 Speaker 2: Right, and it's not good. 517 00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 6: And it's good that y'all had figured that out because 518 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:21,639 Speaker 6: I think that it seems like y'all have found a 519 00:22:21,720 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 6: routine where it's like the kids come first, because I 520 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:26,840 Speaker 6: think a lot of the time the problem is people 521 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:29,639 Speaker 6: let their personal feelings get in the way of like 522 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:33,120 Speaker 6: making sure that they do what's best for the kids right. 523 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 6: And that's what I think makes co parenting hard for 524 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:38,080 Speaker 6: a lot of people. It's because it's like the personal 525 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 6: emotions of the two parents, they not really thinking about 526 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:42,160 Speaker 6: what's best for the child. 527 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:45,000 Speaker 1: Dream right, Because I'm not speaking on your situation, but 528 00:22:45,080 --> 00:22:48,040 Speaker 1: I've been in situations before where it was just like 529 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: pulling teeth and it was like, I realized, I had 530 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:53,879 Speaker 1: to take a step back and realize, it's not that 531 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 1: she don't like me, but you have to realize a 532 00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:59,720 Speaker 1: lot of times when you're dealing with the mother of 533 00:22:59,800 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 1: some one child, there's still feelings there. She burnt the 534 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:08,080 Speaker 1: whole humor for this person. So instead of me being like, girl, 535 00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 1: I got your man now, he at home now, and 536 00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: being combative, I realized I had to mature and you 537 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: know what, I'm gonna have sympathy for her and be 538 00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 1: understanding because you have to realize sometimes people be in 539 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 1: a relationship with someone they have a kid, and they 540 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: thinking that this is my person, this is who I'm 541 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:25,919 Speaker 1: gonna spend the rest of my life with, And when 542 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:29,040 Speaker 1: that doesn't happen, you know, you're kind of grieving. You 543 00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: gotta grieve a relationship with somebody that you had a 544 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:33,919 Speaker 1: whole child. Yeah, So I think a lot of times 545 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: when I say we, because we don't have children. 546 00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:39,920 Speaker 7: So usually not usually most. 547 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,840 Speaker 1: One hundred percent of the time, we're the new girl 548 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,360 Speaker 1: that comes in. Yeah, and we're ushering in and know 549 00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 1: it's fun with us because we ain't got no head. 550 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 1: We turned up, you know what I'm saying. We ain't 551 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: went through you know, we in the gym. Body might 552 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: be a little tighter, and it's all fun and games. 553 00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: So it's like, instead of coming with that negative energy, 554 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,480 Speaker 1: you're not helping. You're actually making it worse by having 555 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:03,399 Speaker 1: this energy, like, well, fuck her, you just go just 556 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: get custody of the kid. It's like, that's not helping. 557 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 6: Well, I think you shouldn't. I think you shouldn't have 558 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,159 Speaker 6: that type of energy anyways. And a man should not 559 00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:10,560 Speaker 6: want to be with a woman who has the type 560 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 6: of agree towards his towards his children or like. 561 00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 2: The mother of his child. 562 00:24:15,560 --> 00:24:17,360 Speaker 7: Right, And I also that's. 563 00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 6: Petty, like you gonna pause you ultimately you gonna end 564 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 6: up pausing more drama for me having that type of 565 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:24,439 Speaker 6: energy with my baby mama, even if we in a 566 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:25,000 Speaker 6: good space. 567 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,000 Speaker 7: I think it's important for the man. 568 00:24:28,040 --> 00:24:29,920 Speaker 1: And I think and I like how you said that too, 569 00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,640 Speaker 1: you were like, you know, to give her that freedom, 570 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:35,399 Speaker 1: and a lot of times men don't want to step 571 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:37,680 Speaker 1: in and like you don't ever want to get your kid. 572 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:39,280 Speaker 1: That's why a lot of times they be mad too. 573 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:40,760 Speaker 7: Your baby mama tied. 574 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, she needs a little break. 575 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 3: She need a break. 576 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 7: She heard you know what I'm saying. 577 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:48,639 Speaker 1: So it's like she doesn't and it's aggravating for them 578 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,520 Speaker 1: because you outside, you dating, you having a good time. 579 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: She wake up a little tie tied and threw up 580 00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,800 Speaker 1: on the coffee.

You ain't 642 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,960 Speaker 1: gonna tell them about that, Like why y'all baby mama 643 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 1: blowing up your phone because she won't. 644 00:28:04,280 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 4: But you. 645 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 1: So it's like, I think it's like accountability as well, 646 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,879 Speaker 1: Like you have to hold accountability because I think blended 647 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:16,639 Speaker 1: families like it's it happens. I don't think you should 648 00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:18,640 Speaker 1: stay with somebody just because y'all have a child, because 649 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: sometimes that can be Sometimes it's worse for the children 650 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: to be with somebody and your child is witnessing y'all 651 00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,879 Speaker 1: arguing every day. That's not healthy. That's not a healthy 652 00:28:26,960 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: environment for the child.

And people always 784 00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: bring it to like monetary things and always yeah, that's why. 785 00:34:08,120 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: And when I think about marriage, money is like never 786 00:34:12,320 --> 00:34:15,520 Speaker 1: a thing that I think about. And I know marriage 787 00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: is a business essentially, but for me, it's like when 788 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:23,319 Speaker 1: I decide to get married and have someone's child, I 789 00:34:23,400 --> 00:34:25,600 Speaker 1: want to talk about it, like how you talked about it, 790 00:34:25,640 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: because you did not mention money one time, but you 791 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 1: mentioned how she made you feel, how you made her feel, 792 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,800 Speaker 1: and how you grew as a man and as a person. 793 00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 7: Because how old were you when y'all met? 794 00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:41,239 Speaker 3: I was, Oh, man, I probably think I was like 795 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 3: twenty eight, I think when we met. 796 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 1: So to be twenty eight, you're an adult, you're grown, 797 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And it's very hard to 798 00:34:49,120 --> 00:34:51,319 Speaker 1: change your ways, Like of course, being twenty eight, you 799 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 1: still have a lot of growing to do. But to 800 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 1: meet somebody and they really kind of change the trajectory 801 00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:01,000 Speaker 1: of your life. That's a lot to let somebody in, 802 00:35:01,440 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 1: especially like you know, being a rapper and being who 803 00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:06,799 Speaker 1: you were, to really let somebody in and let your 804 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: guard down and allow that. 805 00:35:08,120 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 7: But that's so beautiful. 806 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:11,359 Speaker 1: And that's what I think about when I think about 807 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: marriage and love, and I say. 808 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:13,799 Speaker 7: That all the time. 809 00:35:13,840 --> 00:35:16,080 Speaker 1: I feel like we've gotten so far away from that, 810 00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: because when you think about marriage, it shouldn't be this 811 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,360 Speaker 1: is not beneficial for me, it's beneficial for you. And 812 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: it's like, no, if we love each other and the 813 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: feelings are mutual, you see that it's beneficial for the 814 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: both of us. So you really gave low key the 815 00:35:31,080 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: perfect answer, Like, because I think it's beneficial for both parties. 816 00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,840 Speaker 1: We're doing this, not just because I want to do it, 817 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 1: because everybody always thinks it's the woman pressuring, But it's like, 818 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,560 Speaker 1: if the love is there and it's real, he wants 819 00:35:43,560 --> 00:35:44,919 Speaker 1: to do it just as much as you do because 820 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,360 Speaker 1: he sees the benefits.

I felt like 1088 00:46:46,680 --> 00:46:48,840 Speaker 3: I want to appreciate it. What the tapping does for 1089 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:51,560 Speaker 3: that moment, It's like you are worthy, Like you know 1090 00:46:51,600 --> 00:46:55,800 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like like like it's okay, you know 1091 00:46:55,840 --> 00:46:59,120 Speaker 3: what I'm saying.

And the tapping, what tapping does to 1096 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 3: the body, it's almost like you know, everything is a 1097 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,719 Speaker 3: consciousness and it's like a rhythm. So as you reprogram that, 1098 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:19,239 Speaker 3: you start to feeling in your body. You know how 1099 00:47:19,280 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 3: people do this and just and move their leg or 1100 00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,279 Speaker 3: like some people get rocked to sleep. It's the same way, 1101 00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:26,720 Speaker 3: the same thing. So that's how it shows up in EMDR. 1102 00:47:27,520 --> 00:47:32,120 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, it's fired. It's yeah, yeah yeah. Eye contacting. 1103 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:34,240 Speaker 3: You do it and it like it'll it'll bring something 1104 00:47:34,280 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 3: for it. So it's that you can stare in each 1105 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 3: other's eyes like that type of stuff. Yeah, it gets. 1106 00:47:41,400 --> 00:47:45,720 Speaker 1: It gets because I feel like sometimes like I'm a runner. 1107 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: So when I say that, like you talking, how you 1108 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:50,399 Speaker 1: was like oh it was like five or six hours 1109 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 1: or I might not talking to you. I will hold 1110 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,239 Speaker 1: it out and like try to work through it. But 1111 00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:57,160 Speaker 1: once I run, I'm a run, I'm a track star. 1112 00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:01,000 Speaker 1: So how did you like see maybe like a red 1113 00:48:01,040 --> 00:48:03,400 Speaker 1: flag of hers or vice versa, and you were like, 1114 00:48:03,440 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 1: you know what, I'm gonna stick out. I'm want to 1115 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,760 Speaker 1: work through it. Like when did you know like, Okay, 1116 00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 1: it's worth working through because like, how do you know 1117 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:13,600 Speaker 1: It's like a red flag is like this is something 1118 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:15,520 Speaker 1: I can work through and she's worth it versus this 1119 00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:16,160 Speaker 1: is the red. 1120 00:48:15,960 --> 00:48:17,080 Speaker 7: Flag that I need to leave. 1121 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,480 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Because everybody has their red flag. 1122 00:48:19,960 --> 00:48:22,680 Speaker 1: But when do you know, like this is the red 1123 00:48:22,719 --> 00:48:23,799 Speaker 1: this is worth the flight? 1124 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:29,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a good question. You know, well 1125 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:32,520 Speaker 3: there was a point where, you know, every every now 1126 00:48:32,560 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 3: and again, like my wife would deal with like the 1127 00:48:34,920 --> 00:48:38,520 Speaker 3: anxiety thing and for me, and I say this with 1128 00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 3: so much compassion too, So with me, that was a 1129 00:48:41,680 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 3: real struggle for struggle for me because I couldn't. I 1130 00:48:46,239 --> 00:48:48,800 Speaker 3: would always look at it as being irrational, you know 1131 00:48:48,840 --> 00:48:53,239 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, but not looking at it it's like, well, 1132 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 3: this is her experience, and how can I first under 1133 00:48:56,280 --> 00:48:59,920 Speaker 3: her experience before judging that experience? So I think, to me, 1134 00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 3: that was a real pain point for me, you know 1135 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:06,000 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, because I just can't take the excess 1136 00:49:06,160 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 3: or the whatever or just the because I'm very calm, 1137 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:11,640 Speaker 3: I'm very tired. I'm very calm and very like logical 1138 00:49:11,719 --> 00:49:14,240 Speaker 3: with things in my mind and that's how I operate. 1139 00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:18,560 Speaker 3: But I operate logically. She operates in her body, And 1140 00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:22,000 Speaker 3: that's what I'm saying. Even that I had to understand 1141 00:49:22,040 --> 00:49:24,920 Speaker 3: that shit too of like, okay, so we operate differently, 1142 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 3: doesn't mean that one is better than the other. You 1143 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,080 Speaker 3: see what I'm saying, So that right there allowed me 1144 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 3: to say, oh, okay, I got that. I got that. 1145 00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:34,680 Speaker 3: That makes sense. So if I approach it like this, 1146 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,080 Speaker 3: then I could conjure up a different response and then 1147 00:49:37,080 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 3: she could feel supported and this goes away. 1148 00:49:40,040 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 4: Let's try this. I did it a couple of times 1149 00:49:41,880 --> 00:49:42,440 Speaker 4: and it worked. 1150 00:49:42,760 --> 00:49:44,759 Speaker 3: And that was one of them situations where at one 1151 00:49:44,760 --> 00:49:46,799 Speaker 3: point it was a red flag for me, but then 1152 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:48,920 Speaker 3: it was something that I've learned that I'm more than 1153 00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:50,440 Speaker 3: capable of working through it. 1154 00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:51,799 Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. You just have to have 1155 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:53,319 Speaker 4: the desire to want to do it. 1156 00:49:53,400 --> 00:49:56,480 Speaker 7: So that was gonna be a wife after this episode. 1157 00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 1: I've read it. 1158 00:50:00,040 --> 00:50:02,799 Speaker 6: You don't know how I feel about astrology, Like I 1159 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:05,640 Speaker 6: definitely think astrology is accurate in a lot of ways. 1160 00:50:05,640 --> 00:50:08,439 Speaker 6: So I'm wondering, like, as a tourist, do you think 1161 00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,560 Speaker 6: because I know for me and like my boyfriend actually 1162 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:13,040 Speaker 6: said this to me before, like he was like, I 1163 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 6: think it's sometimes it's hard for you to look at 1164 00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 6: things from other people's perspective if it's something that you 1165 00:50:18,520 --> 00:50:20,440 Speaker 6: don't agree with or it's something that you wouldn't do, 1166 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:23,239 Speaker 6: like with what you were just saying with the anxiety situation. 1167 00:50:23,640 --> 00:50:25,160 Speaker 6: Do you think it was like hard for you to 1168 00:50:25,239 --> 00:50:27,600 Speaker 6: understand it because it wasn't something that you actually have 1169 00:50:27,880 --> 00:50:28,359 Speaker 6: dealt with. 1170 00:50:28,440 --> 00:50:29,000 Speaker 2: Or been through. 1171 00:50:30,120 --> 00:50:33,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true that Yes, I felt like that at 1172 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:36,120 Speaker 3: the time. But then I started recognizing too, like you know, 1173 00:50:36,239 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 3: sometimes us as men, we can be hypocritical. It's just 1174 00:50:39,400 --> 00:50:43,360 Speaker 3: our anxiety. Our anxiety. Anxiety looks different. M So let 1175 00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:45,000 Speaker 3: me give you an example. So this is where I 1176 00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:47,760 Speaker 3: knew that all we have the same experiences, just different. 1177 00:50:48,280 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 3: That's when I learned are we more than the same 1178 00:50:50,120 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 3: than not a light? 1179 00:50:51,800 --> 00:50:51,920 Speaker 2: Right? 1180 00:50:52,400 --> 00:50:54,879 Speaker 3: We were going we were going to like on our 1181 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 3: healing trips, and we were out. We were somewhere, I 1182 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,760 Speaker 3: think we were in Costa Rica somewhere, were zip lining, 1183 00:50:59,400 --> 00:51:01,240 Speaker 3: and I was so nervous. 1184 00:51:01,280 --> 00:51:04,080 Speaker 4: I was asking so many questions, Bro, So. 1185 00:51:04,000 --> 00:51:04,520 Speaker 5: What are we gonna do? 1186 00:51:04,560 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 1: Bro? 1187 00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 4: You're hold this shit. 1188 00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:08,080 Speaker 3: Bro, but don't let me grow I'm telling you, bro, 1189 00:51:09,320 --> 00:51:11,200 Speaker 3: hold on, hold on, let me just hold on, brother, 1190 00:51:11,200 --> 00:51:12,480 Speaker 3: Just let me give me a few seconds. 1191 00:51:12,600 --> 00:51:16,280 Speaker 2: That's anxiety, right, Yeah. 1192 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 1: It just showed up. 1193 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 3: But that motherfucker showed up right there, and in that moment, 1194 00:51:18,640 --> 00:51:21,680 Speaker 3: I was like, oh, this is what she deal with. Okay, 1195 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 3: But I'm judging her to you feel what I'm saying. 1196 00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 3: So once I learned that, I'm like, okay, cool, So 1197 00:51:26,719 --> 00:51:28,719 Speaker 3: like all right, we're gonna change our approach to that. 1198 00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:30,680 Speaker 3: So I'm like I experienced it the same way. It's 1199 00:51:30,719 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 3: just very different. Even if it's not on the day 1200 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:34,719 Speaker 3: to day, it's like at some point we all going 1201 00:51:34,760 --> 00:51:37,319 Speaker 3: to have that experience. So it's that's the thing about 1202 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 3: people and even in relationships, is that ultimately, even when 1203 00:51:40,640 --> 00:51:42,680 Speaker 3: there's a disagreement or an argument, like we both are 1204 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:44,520 Speaker 3: asking for the same thing, it just looks different. 1205 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:45,920 Speaker 7: Yes, it really is. 1206 00:51:46,120 --> 00:51:48,160 Speaker 1: I think that's a lot of times when you have 1207 00:51:48,320 --> 00:51:51,839 Speaker 1: arguments with someone, a lot of times there is no 1208 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:56,200 Speaker 1: right or wrong. It's all about wanting that compromise. And 1209 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:59,120 Speaker 1: that's one thing I like how you speak on your 1210 00:51:59,160 --> 00:52:01,080 Speaker 1: relationship because it seem like she got you out of 1211 00:52:01,080 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: your shell of doing like the typical things you do. 1212 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:04,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, because I mean. 1213 00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:07,520 Speaker 7: You was in Costa Rica's zipline and talking about some. 1214 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:12,600 Speaker 1: Like you know, it seems like she brought you, introduced 1215 00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:15,080 Speaker 1: you to things that you never probably would have tried, 1216 00:52:15,600 --> 00:52:18,960 Speaker 1: you know, in other relationships that you were So I 1217 00:52:18,960 --> 00:52:21,080 Speaker 1: think that was probably like how long did you say, 1218 00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:22,840 Speaker 1: like y'all were together when you like knew, Okay, this 1219 00:52:22,920 --> 00:52:23,359 Speaker 1: is the one. 1220 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:30,640 Speaker 3: Oh man, I think, I I think honestly, you know, 1221 00:52:30,640 --> 00:52:32,759 Speaker 3: I know it sounds cliche, but I think I I 1222 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:35,759 Speaker 3: think I've all I always knew.

So it was like I would 1342 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:05,560 Speaker 1: like when me and my friends we used to match 1343 00:58:05,600 --> 00:58:06,760 Speaker 1: going to school. You know how I used to match 1344 00:58:06,760 --> 00:58:08,919 Speaker 1: with your friends and I would literally get pulled into 1345 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:10,520 Speaker 1: the office and I would get in trouble, and I'm like, 1346 00:58:10,560 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 1: we got on the same thing. 1347 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:12,400 Speaker 7: Why is she not in. 1348 00:58:12,360 --> 00:58:15,240 Speaker 1: Trouble just because I had a bigger chess, you know 1349 00:58:15,240 --> 00:58:17,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying.

I just feel like that's very inconsiderate that 1935 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:54,560 Speaker 6: he han't tried to figure out what you like and 1936 01:25:54,680 --> 01:25:57,760 Speaker 6: go to great lengths to make sure that you're satisfied. Yeah, 1937 01:25:58,080 --> 01:25:59,560 Speaker 6: I feel like a man, a man that does not 1938 01:25:59,680 --> 01:26:01,599 Speaker 6: try to make sure that you're satisfied in the bed. 1939 01:26:01,680 --> 01:26:02,680 Speaker 2: He don't really care about you. 1940 01:26:02,840 --> 01:26:04,680 Speaker 1: But I don't even know if that's the case of her. 1941 01:26:04,760 --> 01:26:08,120 Speaker 1: Remember what we talked about earlier, the chakras. Maybe something 1942 01:26:08,240 --> 01:26:13,559 Speaker 1: is blocked off and it's not the Whitney. Yeah, maybe 1943 01:26:13,640 --> 01:26:17,519 Speaker 1: something is not connecting her because he could be trying chakra. 1944 01:26:17,760 --> 01:26:20,120 Speaker 1: I don't know, chap get a little too deep for 1945 01:26:20,280 --> 01:26:21,680 Speaker 1: me because my. 1946 01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:22,800 Speaker 7: Chakra wide open. 1947 01:26:28,840 --> 01:26:32,240 Speaker 1: But I do think that if he is trying, because 1948 01:26:32,240 --> 01:26:34,240 Speaker 1: I'm going to say the opposite of you, because I 1949 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:36,320 Speaker 1: feel like you've been with somebody for eleven years, they 1950 01:26:36,360 --> 01:26:39,559 Speaker 1: should be trying. I think if you're telling him what's wrong. 1951 01:26:39,720 --> 01:26:42,760 Speaker 1: So if he is trying and it's the effort is 1952 01:26:42,800 --> 01:26:46,160 Speaker 1: still not working, something may be blocking you mentally. I 1953 01:26:46,280 --> 01:26:48,920 Speaker 1: say this all the time. Sex with women is a 1954 01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 1: lot more mental than we would like to admit. So 1955 01:26:53,360 --> 01:26:56,280 Speaker 1: something has happening with you mentally that you're just completely 1956 01:26:56,360 --> 01:26:59,000 Speaker 1: checked out. Because you know what, if my man was trying, 1957 01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:02,080 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna that would turn me on to see 1958 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:04,800 Speaker 1: him making an effort that he trying to and that 1959 01:27:04,880 --> 01:27:06,000 Speaker 1: that instilled a sahara. 1960 01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:08,160 Speaker 7: It's something It might be. 1961 01:27:08,240 --> 01:27:13,360 Speaker 1: It might be you that little countability, a little accountability. 1962 01:27:12,640 --> 01:27:13,679 Speaker 5: Might go a long way. 1963 01:27:13,760 --> 01:27:15,400 Speaker 1: What advice because eleven. 1964 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 7: Years is a long time. 1965 01:27:16,360 --> 01:27:19,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, so some keeping her there? You know what I'm saying. 1966 01:27:19,800 --> 01:27:23,000 Speaker 3: It's crazy, eleven years of bad sex is terrible. But 1967 01:27:23,360 --> 01:27:28,280 Speaker 3: maybe they could do something to prioritize or to stimulate 1968 01:27:28,360 --> 01:27:30,519 Speaker 3: the moment. You know what I'm saying, create the you know, 1969 01:27:30,600 --> 01:27:33,439 Speaker 3: maybe it's creating the environment or the landscape. You know, 1970 01:27:33,560 --> 01:27:37,280 Speaker 3: there's things that you can try. You know what I'm saying. Uh, 1971 01:27:37,680 --> 01:27:40,519 Speaker 3: you know again, that could be that can be intimate 1972 01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:43,719 Speaker 3: as opposed to just sexual. That can just be solely touching. 1973 01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, Let's get more familiar with 1974 01:27:45,880 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 3: each other's body. That's actually where I start at. It's 1975 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:50,679 Speaker 3: just getting more familiar with the body. So everything ain't sex. 1976 01:27:50,760 --> 01:27:54,200 Speaker 3: So sometimes it's just like touching. It's just rubbing. It 1977 01:27:54,280 --> 01:27:56,840 Speaker 3: might be massaging, it might be stretching, you know what 1978 01:27:56,880 --> 01:27:59,960 Speaker 3: I'm saying. But just get more familiar with the body. 1979 01:28:00,040 --> 01:28:02,400 Speaker 3: You do touches and feel certain places and you get 1980 01:28:02,439 --> 01:28:05,920 Speaker 3: certain reactions and you start to learn, I'm fascinated with it. 1981 01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:07,800 Speaker 4: So like you know, I have alas. 1982 01:28:09,479 --> 01:28:10,840 Speaker 1: But I do but that is true. 1983 01:28:10,960 --> 01:28:13,479 Speaker 2: But no, seriously, you have to the person's body, and 1984 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:13,800 Speaker 2: then you. 1985 01:28:13,840 --> 01:28:16,200 Speaker 1: Have to say things out of the bedroom. Sometimes the 1986 01:28:16,400 --> 01:28:19,120 Speaker 1: things that will turn you on will surprise you. You know, 1987 01:28:19,320 --> 01:28:21,519 Speaker 1: like maybe y'all might need a date night, you know 1988 01:28:21,560 --> 01:28:24,360 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Maybe y'all might need to just get outside. 1989 01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:26,400 Speaker 7: It's been eleven years. 1990 01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 6: You know. 1991 01:28:26,560 --> 01:28:29,200 Speaker 1: I think that a lot of times you get comfortable. 1992 01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:32,439 Speaker 1: And I was in my last situation for seven years, 1993 01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:34,599 Speaker 1: so I get it. But one thing about me, I'm 1994 01:28:34,600 --> 01:28:36,640 Speaker 1: gonna keep it spicy in that bedroom now. But I 1995 01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:39,040 Speaker 1: feel like it's because, like you said, we have to 1996 01:28:39,080 --> 01:28:43,600 Speaker 1: do different things. Sometimes it's not all about the actual intercourse. 1997 01:28:43,920 --> 01:28:45,720 Speaker 7: It's about the things that lead up to that. 1998 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:46,639 Speaker 4: That's the fact. 1999 01:28:46,720 --> 01:28:49,360 Speaker 7: So you know, try to think outside the boxes. Maybe 2000 01:28:49,400 --> 01:28:52,599 Speaker 7: the things that you think turn you on, they probably 2001 01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:53,799 Speaker 7: don't turn you on anymore. 2002 01:28:53,920 --> 01:28:56,519 Speaker 1: Because the things that turn me on at twenty four 2003 01:28:57,120 --> 01:28:58,519 Speaker 1: don't turn me on at thirty four. 2004 01:29:00,120 --> 01:29:02,360 Speaker 6: So you know, maybe y'all can work it out and 2005 01:29:02,400 --> 01:29:04,479 Speaker 6: maybe just figure out your own body too. I feel 2006 01:29:04,479 --> 01:29:06,080 Speaker 6: like you have to know what you like in order 2007 01:29:06,200 --> 01:29:07,960 Speaker 6: to want somebody else to know what you like. 2008 01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:10,920 Speaker 1: Because if he's trying and it's still like working, maybe. 2009 01:29:12,080 --> 01:29:13,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, good luck. 2010 01:29:13,800 --> 01:29:21,519 Speaker 1: Hopefully y'all make it to year twelve.
