0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.119
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to Carefully Reckless, the production of Our Heart Radio

0:00:03.240 --> 0:00:16.520
<v Speaker 1>and the Black Effect. And just like that, we're back

0:00:16.520 --> 0:00:18.920
<v Speaker 1>on the air. Welcome back to you. Another jest fixed

0:00:18.960 --> 0:00:22.680
<v Speaker 1>my mess segment with Carefully Reckless. Hey you girl, Jess hilarious. Listen,

0:00:22.680 --> 0:00:24.880
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna jump right in. We got some voice memos.

0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:28.320
<v Speaker 1>I like it. Keep it coming, y'all. It just so,

0:00:28.400 --> 0:00:30.640
<v Speaker 1>this is gonna be kind of long, but I'm gonna

0:00:30.680 --> 0:00:32.800
<v Speaker 1>try to sum it up as quick as I can.

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.440
<v Speaker 1>I know you always speak about relationship ship, but I'm

0:00:36.479 --> 0:00:39.919
<v Speaker 1>coming to you for advice strictly for getting over a

0:00:39.960 --> 0:00:43.320
<v Speaker 1>friendship or multiple friendships that you know, you know, you

0:00:43.479 --> 0:00:46.320
<v Speaker 1>grew apart from, or you just don't see eye to

0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:49.040
<v Speaker 1>eye anymore. So long story short, I moved to a

0:00:49.080 --> 0:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>different city when I was in about fifth grade. In

0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>fifth grade, I met one of my best friends who

0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought, you know, I would eventually be friends until

0:00:57.000 --> 0:01:00.800
<v Speaker 1>I die with, And then in sixth grade met another one.

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:04.759
<v Speaker 1>In in seventh grade, we all was a trio because

0:01:04.840 --> 0:01:07.399
<v Speaker 1>they had already knew each other previously. I just never

0:01:07.440 --> 0:01:09.720
<v Speaker 1>knew that they knew each other. So we made it

0:01:09.760 --> 0:01:13.000
<v Speaker 1>strong through middle school and even through half of high

0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 1>school now, and in high school, I ended up getting

0:01:16.120 --> 0:01:18.280
<v Speaker 1>pregnant and I was pulled from public school and I

0:01:18.360 --> 0:01:21.679
<v Speaker 1>was placed into private school or online private school. So

0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't there for them as much as I was

0:01:24.319 --> 0:01:28.080
<v Speaker 1>supposed to be or I could have been. But just

0:01:28.120 --> 0:01:30.399
<v Speaker 1>give you a little background, I'm the friend out of

0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:32.800
<v Speaker 1>the group who don't play no ship. I will smack

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:36.040
<v Speaker 1>a bit about them first and ask questions later, so

0:01:36.120 --> 0:01:38.679
<v Speaker 1>that played a big part. I was like the outspoken

0:01:38.720 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 1>person out of the group. I was the one who

0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:43.479
<v Speaker 1>took up for the entire group, not saying that their

0:01:43.520 --> 0:01:45.839
<v Speaker 1>soft or anything, but I was just that ongo type

0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:48.640
<v Speaker 1>of bitch. Now with me being going, I couldn't be

0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:50.840
<v Speaker 1>there for them as much as I would have liked to,

0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:54.920
<v Speaker 1>like I stated already, but one of them, so the

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:58.440
<v Speaker 1>one I met first, she ended up getting the second

0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:02.640
<v Speaker 1>one in to some ship, so she ended up getting

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 1>her into some drama with some other girls, and the

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:09.680
<v Speaker 1>other girls jumped her while she was there, and she

0:02:09.720 --> 0:02:12.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't do nothing when this is her beef to begin with.

0:02:13.280 --> 0:02:15.720
<v Speaker 1>You were supposed to do something, not just stand there.

0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 1>So we instantly stopped being friends with her, and I

0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:23.320
<v Speaker 1>just started being friends with another one the other one. Eventually,

0:02:23.400 --> 0:02:26.680
<v Speaker 1>instead of just me being her friend, she felt so

0:02:26.760 --> 0:02:28.800
<v Speaker 1>desperate that she had to go be friends with somebody

0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.480
<v Speaker 1>we didn't already beat up, and we weren't friends with

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:34.840
<v Speaker 1>at first, and so she just started to be really

0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:38.079
<v Speaker 1>distant towards me kind of. And then it's like, I'm

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:41.240
<v Speaker 1>raised into a household where I'm not close to my

0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:44.520
<v Speaker 1>brothers and sisters, so I really rely on friendships to

0:02:44.560 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 1>get me by, to get me out of this lonely

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.800
<v Speaker 1>place in my life. And she just started to be

0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:53.680
<v Speaker 1>like really really fake towards me. And at this point,

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:56.320
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't turn back onto the other friend like I

0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:59.959
<v Speaker 1>wanted to, and I instantly started regretting not being her friend,

0:03:00.120 --> 0:03:02.560
<v Speaker 1>because honestly, with me not even going to the school

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 1>or being a part of this beef, I shouldn't have

0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:09.040
<v Speaker 1>took anybody's side. Now that I'm older, this happened years ago,

0:03:09.520 --> 0:03:11.920
<v Speaker 1>twenty one. Now, this happened when I was maybe seventeen.

0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Now that I'm you know, learned a lot. I felt

0:03:14.160 --> 0:03:17.960
<v Speaker 1>like that was in my place to just decide on

0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 1>what was right and what was wrong and what I

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:23.200
<v Speaker 1>had to do, because it really had nothing to do

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.359
<v Speaker 1>with me. So I ended up being homeless at eighteen,

0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>and I was supposed to go live with the friend

0:03:29.000 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 1>that I was still friends with, and she literally left

0:03:31.720 --> 0:03:35.040
<v Speaker 1>me and my son outside because the girl that I

0:03:35.080 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 1>wasn't cool with she was in the house at the moment.

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>So it's just like, just to sum it up, it's

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 1>just a lot of ship, that shady ship that started

0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:46.240
<v Speaker 1>to happen, and I already broke up with the first girl,

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:48.600
<v Speaker 1>and then the second girl was weird, so I eventually

0:03:48.600 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>broke up with her. And now that we're grown, I'm

0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 1>looking at their lives and they're still doing the same thing.

0:03:54.880 --> 0:03:57.920
<v Speaker 1>They're still fighting, they're still in drama, they're still pulling

0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 1>up to bitch's house jumping them and a mama and

0:04:01.520 --> 0:04:03.600
<v Speaker 1>I have two kids now. I have a five year

0:04:03.600 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 1>old and I have a temo throld baby, and I'm

0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 1>just at the point in my life where I know

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:12.680
<v Speaker 1>that I cannot be their friends anymore based on where

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:16.000
<v Speaker 1>my life is going. I'm starting a business, I'm saving

0:04:16.040 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 1>up my money to move out of state because I

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 1>hate Michigan so much. But I'm on a different level

0:04:21.000 --> 0:04:23.680
<v Speaker 1>than them, and I know that we can never be friends.

0:04:23.720 --> 0:04:27.799
<v Speaker 1>But I hate the feeling of just not being their friends,

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:29.440
<v Speaker 1>and I just don't know how to get over it.

0:04:29.680 --> 0:04:32.240
<v Speaker 1>Like I really truly missed them, even though I know

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:35.359
<v Speaker 1>we could never be how we was. I often find

0:04:35.360 --> 0:04:39.719
<v Speaker 1>myself on their Facebook pages looking at what they've been doing,

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.039
<v Speaker 1>looking at how they've been growing. One of them had

0:04:43.080 --> 0:04:45.320
<v Speaker 1>a baby, and like she's still on the same ship.

0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:48.240
<v Speaker 1>So I'm just coming to you to see, like, if

0:04:48.279 --> 0:04:50.680
<v Speaker 1>you can give me any advice on how to move

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.920
<v Speaker 1>on from these friendships, I would gladly appreciate it, just

0:04:54.160 --> 0:04:57.560
<v Speaker 1>because it's just a hard part of my life that

0:04:57.600 --> 0:05:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to get over. Like I don't find myself

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:03.280
<v Speaker 1>crying over it or anything, but it's so hard to

0:05:03.320 --> 0:05:06.480
<v Speaker 1>not dwell on the past when those were like my

0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:09.720
<v Speaker 1>sisters that I didn't grow up with. Well, actually I

0:05:09.800 --> 0:05:11.640
<v Speaker 1>did grow up with them because I was friends with

0:05:11.720 --> 0:05:14.320
<v Speaker 1>them for so many years, but you know, they weren't

0:05:14.400 --> 0:05:18.280
<v Speaker 1>biologically my sisters. But it's just so hard not to

0:05:18.360 --> 0:05:20.520
<v Speaker 1>miss them or not to think about them, and I

0:05:20.600 --> 0:05:23.440
<v Speaker 1>just want some type of advice. I haven't reached out

0:05:23.480 --> 0:05:25.840
<v Speaker 1>to neither of them, and I really don't think they

0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.800
<v Speaker 1>would want to hear from me. Just because of how

0:05:28.880 --> 0:05:32.800
<v Speaker 1>I left them hanking. Okay, see your story stops there. Okay,

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:37.279
<v Speaker 1>well listen, it's okay girl. Look, you don't have to

0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:41.159
<v Speaker 1>not be their friends. You don't have to. You don't

0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:43.479
<v Speaker 1>have to hang out with them all the time either.

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.560
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing wrong with that. You love these girls, and

0:05:46.600 --> 0:05:49.599
<v Speaker 1>these girls love you. I don't care what y'all been through. Listen.

0:05:49.680 --> 0:05:52.440
<v Speaker 1>You told me something that y'all went through when y'all

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.920
<v Speaker 1>were seventeen years old. You're twenty one. That was four

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:58.200
<v Speaker 1>years ago. No, not too long. But you grow every year.

0:05:58.400 --> 0:06:00.600
<v Speaker 1>You have two children. Now, you know what you want

0:06:00.600 --> 0:06:01.840
<v Speaker 1>to do with your life. You want to move out

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>of state. You're starting your own business. All good, you're

0:06:05.320 --> 0:06:06.880
<v Speaker 1>taking care of your children. By the way, I hear

0:06:06.920 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 1>your baby in the back cock baby. But you know

0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.599
<v Speaker 1>what I'm saying. As long as you know what your

0:06:11.640 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 1>goals are, it don't matter who your friends are. You

0:06:14.920 --> 0:06:17.400
<v Speaker 1>don't let people drag you down. You don't do that.

0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:20.679
<v Speaker 1>Ain't nothing wrong with checking on your friends, get childhood friends,

0:06:20.680 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 1>your sisters. You know how many girls don't have that

0:06:23.760 --> 0:06:26.160
<v Speaker 1>these days? You know how many girls don't have friends

0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:27.960
<v Speaker 1>at all. Didn't even grow up with friends that they

0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.520
<v Speaker 1>considered sisters. Girl, you know how many fights I've been

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:32.920
<v Speaker 1>in for other bitches and how many fights other bitches

0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:35.760
<v Speaker 1>been in for me? You know what I'm saying. That's

0:06:35.760 --> 0:06:38.800
<v Speaker 1>the part of growing up. Girl, looks I had a

0:06:38.839 --> 0:06:42.560
<v Speaker 1>friend who I stuck my neck out there for. She

0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 1>didn't know how to fight. All she knew how to

0:06:44.520 --> 0:06:47.440
<v Speaker 1>do was talk ship. And we're in the club and

0:06:47.480 --> 0:06:50.719
<v Speaker 1>this girl whooped my ask because I'm the same friend

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.840
<v Speaker 1>that you are, jump out there. But see, you can't

0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:56.919
<v Speaker 1>be there everybody, this big bitch. I just knew I was,

0:06:57.160 --> 0:06:59.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, because I I'm quick with mine. You know,

0:06:59.640 --> 0:07:03.240
<v Speaker 1>you know, you know what I'm saying. But she beat

0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:08.000
<v Speaker 1>my ass and I didn't leave that friend alone. I

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.160
<v Speaker 1>was upset that that bitch stood right there and watched

0:07:10.160 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 1>me get my ass whipping neck like she didn't see

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 1>what was going on. She just thought of dancing to

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:18.160
<v Speaker 1>the beat and ship. But I knew she wasn't a fighter,

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>you get what I'm saying. I knew she talked ship.

0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:24.000
<v Speaker 1>So that's when you you don't say, or I ain't

0:07:24.000 --> 0:07:29.360
<v Speaker 1>sucking with her no more. No, you realize what she is. Oh, okay,

0:07:29.400 --> 0:07:31.560
<v Speaker 1>that's the point of her being your friend. Okay, all right,

0:07:31.600 --> 0:07:33.960
<v Speaker 1>that's Tiffany. I'm just you know, throwing her name out there.

0:07:34.000 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's Tiffany. I know sean fight, but I know

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 1>she's gonna talk shit. So I'm I'm I'm gonna keep

0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:41.680
<v Speaker 1>her at arms length because I don't know. One day

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:44.040
<v Speaker 1>we might be out and somebody walk up on this

0:07:44.080 --> 0:07:46.840
<v Speaker 1>bitch and she won't fight. Somebody hit in the back

0:07:46.840 --> 0:07:48.120
<v Speaker 1>of head. I'm a fight with her. But if I

0:07:48.160 --> 0:07:50.520
<v Speaker 1>don't want to be attached to that part of my friend,

0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I don't have to. So you have her for different ship.

0:07:54.240 --> 0:07:56.400
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, we're gonna go to church together on Sunday's bitch.

0:07:56.520 --> 0:07:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Oh no, you can come over my house and we're

0:07:58.560 --> 0:08:00.880
<v Speaker 1>gonna chill. Bring your baby over here. We can haven't

0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.920
<v Speaker 1>play date. Oh, We're only gonna be in certain facinities

0:08:03.920 --> 0:08:06.480
<v Speaker 1>where ain't no drama gonna be. You have to know

0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:11.520
<v Speaker 1>your friends. That's it. You watch them through Facebook, you

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:15.480
<v Speaker 1>find yourself missing them, you find it's okay, let's because

0:08:15.520 --> 0:08:17.520
<v Speaker 1>you had a lot of fun together. Girl, hit them

0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:21.960
<v Speaker 1>girls up? Hey, how y'all doing. I was actually pondering

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:24.400
<v Speaker 1>back and forth whether or not I should hit you guys.

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:26.040
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know if I wanted to speak with you. Guys.

0:08:26.040 --> 0:08:27.560
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know if you guys wanted to speak with me.

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm just saying, hey, I see you guys are doing

0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:34.480
<v Speaker 1>better now. Even if they ain't that your sisters uplift

0:08:34.559 --> 0:08:37.560
<v Speaker 1>them up, left them ship. That could be your way

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.880
<v Speaker 1>of getting them out whatever the funk they got going on.

0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:45.200
<v Speaker 1>That message from you can actually make them say, oh, Ship, damn,

0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:48.640
<v Speaker 1>she doing good. She hit herself up. You know, you

0:08:48.720 --> 0:08:50.600
<v Speaker 1>might prompt them to want to know more about what

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 1>you're doing, and then when they see what you're doing,

0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:55.240
<v Speaker 1>they might want to do the same. Ship. That still

0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.120
<v Speaker 1>don't mean hang with their asks every day. You don't

0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.320
<v Speaker 1>have time to do that. You' twenty one, you on

0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 1>your way place this and you've got two babies there

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:05.880
<v Speaker 1>your friends, huh, mama, Ship. You can't hang out with

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 1>your sisters all day if the funk you wanted to,

0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:10.760
<v Speaker 1>because your real friends, the one that was crying in

0:09:10.760 --> 0:09:13.120
<v Speaker 1>the back and that other five year old, Oh they're

0:09:13.120 --> 0:09:17.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna be there. Oh no, baby, we first, so they

0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:21.800
<v Speaker 1>come later. There's nothing wrong with still having friendships with

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:25.280
<v Speaker 1>people that you feel like aren't on your level. It's fine.

0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:28.040
<v Speaker 1>What you have to do is not let them bring

0:09:28.080 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 1>you down. You can't let them rub off on you.

0:09:31.000 --> 0:09:34.120
<v Speaker 1>And you seem pretty headstrong where you ain't gonna let

0:09:34.120 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 1>that happen. You seem that way. You live by yourself.

0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:39.720
<v Speaker 1>You got your own plate. You know. You could be

0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:44.360
<v Speaker 1>motivation for them. Obviously, they ain't thinking outside of Michigan.

0:09:44.640 --> 0:09:47.200
<v Speaker 1>You are. It ain't your job to take them with you,

0:09:47.280 --> 0:09:50.240
<v Speaker 1>but ship passed on what you're doing. Just put that

0:09:50.280 --> 0:09:52.319
<v Speaker 1>ship in there. But if you miss him, tell them.

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:55.079
<v Speaker 1>Ain't nothing wrong with that. Dropped that pride because you're one.

0:09:55.520 --> 0:09:57.040
<v Speaker 1>I understand. I was twenty one two and I had

0:09:57.040 --> 0:09:59.760
<v Speaker 1>a whole bunch of pride. Shit, Ain't nothing wrong with

0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:01.520
<v Speaker 1>telling your sisters you miss them, you love them, and

0:10:01.559 --> 0:10:03.400
<v Speaker 1>you wish them the best. That could open up a

0:10:03.400 --> 0:10:05.640
<v Speaker 1>whole another can of worms. Listen, they could be missing

0:10:05.679 --> 0:10:08.920
<v Speaker 1>you right now too. You never know. Be that person

0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:11.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, and if you don't want to, you don't

0:10:11.320 --> 0:10:15.960
<v Speaker 1>have to. But I would say do that. You don't

0:10:15.960 --> 0:10:18.280
<v Speaker 1>want to take that advice, prey on it. Ask God

0:10:18.320 --> 0:10:20.679
<v Speaker 1>to send you new connections, new people that you can

0:10:20.720 --> 0:10:23.600
<v Speaker 1>build healthy connections with. Just pray on that. If you

0:10:23.640 --> 0:10:25.360
<v Speaker 1>do pray. If you are a Christian or you know

0:10:25.920 --> 0:10:28.920
<v Speaker 1>whatever or whoever you believe in, pray, pray to that

0:10:29.240 --> 0:10:33.079
<v Speaker 1>pray and I'm telling you ask God to put meaningful

0:10:33.080 --> 0:10:37.360
<v Speaker 1>connections in your life, connections that you can benefit off

0:10:37.400 --> 0:10:41.320
<v Speaker 1>of as well as someone else can benefit. Send your

0:10:41.360 --> 0:10:44.440
<v Speaker 1>friends that can strengthen you where you lack, they can

0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 1>they can pick it up where you feel weak. That

0:10:47.120 --> 0:10:49.440
<v Speaker 1>friend is gonna be your backbone. You're strong, girl, you

0:10:49.440 --> 0:10:52.920
<v Speaker 1>know there's nothing wrong with that. Talk to your SISIs.

0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Tell them you miss them, your friends, you know, tell

0:10:55.320 --> 0:10:59.160
<v Speaker 1>them you miss them. It's all right, It is okay.

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Check back in, baby girl. If you love me, you'll

0:11:02.800 --> 0:11:05.120
<v Speaker 1>listen to this commercial and then we'll be right back.

0:11:06.640 --> 0:11:08.959
<v Speaker 1>All right, all right, before I play this next and

0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:10.680
<v Speaker 1>I want to let y'all know this is an update,

0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:15.120
<v Speaker 1>all right. So look, I've helped this girl three different times,

0:11:15.760 --> 0:11:17.920
<v Speaker 1>and at this point, this is my client. This is

0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:21.880
<v Speaker 1>a regular and she's my client, and we have monthly sessions,

0:11:21.920 --> 0:11:27.600
<v Speaker 1>so there with her. Just at this point, I consider

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:31.440
<v Speaker 1>you my home girl from a distance. But basically I

0:11:31.480 --> 0:11:34.719
<v Speaker 1>just wanted to update you on the last situation. I'm

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.680
<v Speaker 1>really just feeling some tea at this point. But basically

0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:41.160
<v Speaker 1>the last situation I was with, I was talking to

0:11:41.200 --> 0:11:45.119
<v Speaker 1>this guy that I worked with. He pretty much seemed interested.

0:11:45.520 --> 0:11:49.720
<v Speaker 1>You know, he had my number. We texted during work,

0:11:49.840 --> 0:11:52.760
<v Speaker 1>and you know, he seemed like he wanted to go

0:11:52.880 --> 0:11:55.839
<v Speaker 1>further because he said that he wanted to text me,

0:11:55.960 --> 0:11:59.520
<v Speaker 1>but he ended up never texted me. Um, And this

0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:03.160
<v Speaker 1>was like, are on the weekend, So I assumed that

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 1>he may have another woman in his life, but like

0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.680
<v Speaker 1>you said, communication is key and I didn't want to assume,

0:12:09.880 --> 0:12:13.120
<v Speaker 1>so I asked him once I saw him at work

0:12:13.320 --> 0:12:17.959
<v Speaker 1>a few days back, this man's told me that it

0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:20.800
<v Speaker 1>was not another woman, mind you. A few days go

0:12:20.960 --> 0:12:23.600
<v Speaker 1>by and we ended up coming across each other again

0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:27.720
<v Speaker 1>at work. He's flirting with me. You know, we're talking

0:12:28.120 --> 0:12:31.240
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like joking, saying, like, you know you're doing

0:12:31.280 --> 0:12:35.280
<v Speaker 1>all this flirting, but you can't even text me outside

0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:39.000
<v Speaker 1>of work, or you know, call me or anything. Why

0:12:39.120 --> 0:12:42.839
<v Speaker 1>This man said, uh, you know, it's hard to do

0:12:42.880 --> 0:12:45.800
<v Speaker 1>that when I have a living in my mind, I'm

0:12:45.880 --> 0:12:48.960
<v Speaker 1>like a living. But I asked him, I'm like, what

0:12:49.120 --> 0:12:52.000
<v Speaker 1>is a living? He said, I still live with my

0:12:52.120 --> 0:12:59.719
<v Speaker 1>child's mother. Your child's mother living with her. Excuse me,

0:13:00.360 --> 0:13:03.000
<v Speaker 1>is what I said in my mind? Mind you. So

0:13:03.080 --> 0:13:07.320
<v Speaker 1>he goes on to explain, of course, that they no

0:13:07.440 --> 0:13:11.320
<v Speaker 1>longer get along, she's always arguing with him, that he

0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:17.400
<v Speaker 1>wants to just like separate from her. YadA YadA, YadA.

0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:21.479
<v Speaker 1>I'm taking this all in. I'm not giving no expression,

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:28.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm not saying anything back anything. I'm just like I'm okay, okay, yeah, okay.

0:13:29.160 --> 0:13:31.520
<v Speaker 1>And he just goes on and on and like, saying

0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:34.440
<v Speaker 1>that they've been together for twenty years and he doesn't

0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:37.280
<v Speaker 1>want to leave because of the child, just digging himself

0:13:37.360 --> 0:13:40.480
<v Speaker 1>in the deepest hole ever. A couple of days go

0:13:40.600 --> 0:13:43.880
<v Speaker 1>by again, you know, we ended up coming across each

0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:46.800
<v Speaker 1>other again. Really, he kind of followed me. I wasn't

0:13:46.800 --> 0:13:50.560
<v Speaker 1>even trying to deal with this man. But why this

0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:56.920
<v Speaker 1>man goes on to invite me. We're talking like casually,

0:13:57.000 --> 0:13:59.440
<v Speaker 1>we're not even really, we're not flirting at all. I'm

0:13:59.520 --> 0:14:02.520
<v Speaker 1>over at this point, but we're talking casually. We're still

0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:06.160
<v Speaker 1>at work, you know, still keeping professional or cordial. But

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:10.080
<v Speaker 1>why this man tells me or asks me, do I

0:14:10.120 --> 0:14:16.120
<v Speaker 1>want to go to a Halloween party with him? My nigga, no,

0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:18.240
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to go to a hallowbein party with you.

0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:22.000
<v Speaker 1>What I said was, though, I'm not doing anything with

0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:26.400
<v Speaker 1>you because you have a whole situation. I'm not trying

0:14:26.400 --> 0:14:28.920
<v Speaker 1>to deal with any of that. Do you understand where

0:14:28.960 --> 0:14:32.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm coming from. I'm trying to really gauge his understanding

0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:38.040
<v Speaker 1>of how messy the situation is. He still is like,

0:14:38.560 --> 0:14:41.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, just saying all this negative stuff about the woman,

0:14:41.880 --> 0:14:44.800
<v Speaker 1>like she argues all the time. I know she doesn't

0:14:44.840 --> 0:14:47.640
<v Speaker 1>love me, YadA, YadA, YadA. And then he goes on

0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:50.720
<v Speaker 1>to say when I see you, you brighten my day.

0:14:51.280 --> 0:14:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Whenever I see you, I'm like a kid in a

0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:59.720
<v Speaker 1>candy store, just saying on this reckless as it's I'm like,

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:03.040
<v Speaker 1>oh god, you must be testing me. You must be

<v Speaker 1>testing me. If it's not a test, I don't know

0:15:05.200 --> 0:15:11.040
<v Speaker 1>what is. Because he's handsome, he's tall, he a handy man,

0:15:11.680 --> 0:15:14.320

<v Speaker 1>doing so. You understand what I'm saying. But they have

0:16:49.040 --> 0:16:53.800
<v Speaker 1>so much together, and they've had so much together that

0:16:53.880 --> 0:16:55.920
<v Speaker 1>they don't want to walk away. No, it ain't about

0:16:55.920 --> 0:16:59.600
<v Speaker 1>the damn child. Listen, you said twenty years now. If

0:16:59.600 --> 0:17:02.640
<v Speaker 1>they would together for twenty years, all right, if they

0:17:02.680 --> 0:17:04.760
<v Speaker 1>had the kids twenty years ago, that kids shouldn't even

0:17:04.800 --> 0:17:08.840
<v Speaker 1>be living at the house. That kid is twenty, but

0:17:09.240 --> 0:17:11.240
<v Speaker 1>that might not be the case. All right, let's say

0:17:11.280 --> 0:17:13.760
<v Speaker 1>the kid is younger. Either way, it ain't about the kids.

0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:16.680
<v Speaker 1>It's about that twenty years that y'all been together. It's

0:17:16.680 --> 0:17:19.800
<v Speaker 1>about all of the ship that they have shared. It's

0:17:19.840 --> 0:17:22.080
<v Speaker 1>about all the ship that they owned together. They own

0:17:22.080 --> 0:17:24.480
<v Speaker 1>that house together. Butter believe that they ain't paying no rent.

0:17:24.640 --> 0:17:29.520
<v Speaker 1>They own that ship together twenty years. Please. His car

0:17:29.920 --> 0:17:32.240
<v Speaker 1>probably got her name on and her car probably got

0:17:32.240 --> 0:17:34.760
<v Speaker 1>his name on it. They married without being married. They

0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:38.680
<v Speaker 1>married without the legal contract, They married without the paperwork. Okay,

0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:43.800
<v Speaker 1>that's what it was. It's giving Yandy mndcense's that's what not.

0:17:43.800 --> 0:17:46.679
<v Speaker 1>I think they got paperwork now, But no, that's what

0:17:46.800 --> 0:17:51.520
<v Speaker 1>that is. That is a life long relationship. And listen,

0:17:51.560 --> 0:17:54.480
<v Speaker 1>he's bored. He's bored at times he's tired of her.

0:17:54.880 --> 0:17:58.040
<v Speaker 1>At times, he's tired of her, but he also knows

0:17:58.160 --> 0:18:01.040
<v Speaker 1>it ain't really ship out here either. Not saying you

0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:04.920
<v Speaker 1>ain't ship baby, It ain't really ship out here. So

0:18:05.080 --> 0:18:06.920
<v Speaker 1>he probably liked to go off and have his fund

0:18:06.960 --> 0:18:09.840
<v Speaker 1>every now and then, just something to hold him over

0:18:10.080 --> 0:18:13.119
<v Speaker 1>until he misses her again. But you better believe is

0:18:13.160 --> 0:18:16.240
<v Speaker 1>still some type of goddamn love there. It is. It

0:18:16.320 --> 0:18:19.719
<v Speaker 1>is love and respect of some sort, because that nigga

0:18:19.880 --> 0:18:23.880
<v Speaker 1>turns his phone off or blocks you on the weekends

0:18:24.440 --> 0:18:27.000
<v Speaker 1>to be with her, you know what I'm saying, to

0:18:27.160 --> 0:18:30.359
<v Speaker 1>be with his family. Now. Even with that being said,

0:18:30.840 --> 0:18:33.000
<v Speaker 1>you're saying he's talking all his reckless ship. You said that,

0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:36.239
<v Speaker 1>he said, Oh you're brightened my day. You're beautiful, and

0:18:36.560 --> 0:18:38.080
<v Speaker 1>I get butterflies, and I see you in all that

0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:41.760
<v Speaker 1>ship that may not necessarily be alive. That may be true.

0:18:42.440 --> 0:18:45.359
<v Speaker 1>You're a young brother of fresh air, youthful. You got

0:18:45.440 --> 0:18:49.960
<v Speaker 1>all your teeth, probably a nice, pretty beautiful complexion, all

0:18:50.000 --> 0:18:53.080
<v Speaker 1>of that. He's older. You said, he's hands and he

0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:55.639
<v Speaker 1>got things going forward south. He's a handy man. He

0:18:55.760 --> 0:19:00.639
<v Speaker 1>just gotta live in sir, goodbye, good guy. Damn by

0:19:00.800 --> 0:19:03.240

0:19:03.320 --> 0:19:05.960
<v Speaker 1>stand with a man do that ship. I can't stand

0:19:06.000 --> 0:19:08.800
<v Speaker 1>when a man lives with a woman who has his

0:19:08.960 --> 0:19:12.600
<v Speaker 1>children and you come and you talk to outsiders about me,

0:19:12.960 --> 0:19:15.880
<v Speaker 1>as if we ain't together, as if you ain't hitting

0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.080

0:19:18.119 --> 0:19:20.439
<v Speaker 1>to me, as if you don't block these girls, and

0:19:20.520 --> 0:19:23.520
<v Speaker 1>as if you don't lock yourself in the house with

0:19:23.640 --> 0:19:27.119
<v Speaker 1>me every fucking weekend and we have our time. You're

0:19:27.160 --> 0:19:31.280

0:19:31.359 --> 0:19:34.359
<v Speaker 1>get these women a funk with you, when really they

0:19:34.359 --> 0:19:37.200
<v Speaker 1>should be looking at your ass like you fucking lost

0:19:37.240 --> 0:19:40.000

0:19:42.280 --> 0:19:43.560

0:19:51.800 --> 0:19:53.160
<v Speaker 1>that he can go ahead of his fun with when

0:19:53.160 --> 0:19:55.280
<v Speaker 1>he's outside the home, because he's been with the same

0:19:55.320 --> 0:19:57.760
<v Speaker 1>person for twenty years. That's how that ship goes sometimes.

0:19:58.200 --> 0:20:00.880
<v Speaker 1>But he's not leaving her. You ain't about the funk

0:20:00.880 --> 0:20:03.040
<v Speaker 1>with him. I don't care what you're saying you ain't

0:20:03.040 --> 0:20:05.680
<v Speaker 1>about the funk with him. Yeah, he hands him. Yeah,

0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:26.680
<v Speaker 1>party was on a Saturday, he wouldn't invited you because

0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:29.680
<v Speaker 1>he would be with the living, calling her a living. Sorry,

0:20:44.720 --> 0:20:46.840
<v Speaker 1>realize that ain't where you want to be. But he's

0:20:46.840 --> 0:20:51.240
<v Speaker 1>too old to not realize that, So that's what I'm saying. No,

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:55.040
<v Speaker 1>he may not be happy with this woman, but he

0:20:55.119 --> 0:20:57.440

0:21:29.280 --> 0:21:32.600
<v Speaker 1>Reckless Discussions. I will read or listen if the story

0:21:32.640 --> 0:21:34.239
<v Speaker 1>moves me and I feel like it's something that I

0:21:34.320 --> 0:21:37.320
<v Speaker 1>can do. If I have not ever read your story,

0:21:37.400 --> 0:21:39.239
<v Speaker 1>if you you know, because I I see a lot

0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:42.199
<v Speaker 1>of y'all mad and my emails obviously I've sent you

0:21:42.240 --> 0:21:46.360
<v Speaker 1>this that the baby you need some real goddamn help.

0:21:46.480 --> 0:21:49.840
<v Speaker 1>You need um to go pay for some ship. You

0:21:49.880 --> 0:21:52.320
<v Speaker 1>don't need for me to repeat what y'all telling me

0:21:52.400 --> 0:21:56.360
<v Speaker 1>on this goddamned podcast. Um, A lot of y'all are

0:21:56.400 --> 0:21:59.880
<v Speaker 1>submitting things and going through things that require medical attention.

0:22:00.320 --> 0:22:05.719
<v Speaker 1>So I don't want to ever use a severe situation

0:22:05.760 --> 0:22:09.920
<v Speaker 1>that I think is detrimental to your help and our community,

0:22:10.280 --> 0:22:13.320
<v Speaker 1>just for the likeness of a podcast, you know, just

0:22:13.520 --> 0:22:16.920
<v Speaker 1>for likes and views, just for No. I would never

0:22:17.000 --> 0:22:19.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to do that. But I do read

0:22:19.520 --> 0:22:22.080
<v Speaker 1>a lot, and I do be seeing the ship. But

0:22:22.119 --> 0:22:25.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of y'all. I can't, you know, man, No,

0:22:26.400 --> 0:22:30.719
<v Speaker 1>I can't. I can't. I need you women too, really

0:22:30.760 --> 0:22:34.680
<v Speaker 1>really seek professional help. I don't want to be responsible

0:22:35.200 --> 0:22:40.680
<v Speaker 1>for like domestic violence mess. These men are whooping y'all asses,

0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:44.560
<v Speaker 1>These men are doing ship to your kids. Why the

0:22:44.720 --> 0:22:47.600
<v Speaker 1>funk are you sending just with the mess this ship?

0:22:48.040 --> 0:22:51.000
<v Speaker 1>I want to help, but that's the reason why I

0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:54.119
<v Speaker 1>can't be a real therapist or a real cop, or

0:22:54.160 --> 0:22:58.199
<v Speaker 1>a real judge or because you can't help everybody. And

0:22:58.240 --> 0:23:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm the type of person that would to help everybody.

0:23:01.119 --> 0:23:03.439
<v Speaker 1>I would feel horrible if there was somebody that I

0:23:03.440 --> 0:23:07.200
<v Speaker 1>tried to help and I couldn't I failed. So please,

0:23:07.320 --> 0:23:10.960
<v Speaker 1>y'all need medical attention. I cannot. I will not do that.

0:23:11.280 --> 0:23:14.359
<v Speaker 1>And it's even worse things than that. Other than the

0:23:14.440 --> 0:23:17.480
<v Speaker 1>two things I just said, y'all are in like really

0:23:17.520 --> 0:23:21.480
<v Speaker 1>really bad situations. Man, that's statrimental to your health. I can't.

0:23:21.600 --> 0:23:23.640
<v Speaker 1>I can't. I'm not going to read that and try

0:23:23.680 --> 0:23:25.639
<v Speaker 1>to fix it because I don't know. I don't know

0:23:25.680 --> 0:23:28.040
<v Speaker 1>what to do for you, guys. I can't I can't

0:23:28.080 --> 0:23:32.240
<v Speaker 1>physically come get you. So what I can do is

0:23:32.320 --> 0:23:34.640
<v Speaker 1>keep praying for all the men and women out there

0:23:34.720 --> 0:23:38.040
<v Speaker 1>who are batter than being treated wrongly, in in danger,

0:23:38.640 --> 0:23:40.439
