Okay, 80 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,280 Speaker 3: the question I have to ask you is, I don't 81 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 3: know if anybody else is having this problem, but from 82 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 3: my early twenties, I feel like I'm having an identity crisis. 83 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,480 Speaker 3: I feel like I truly can't find myself. I don't 84 00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:15,600 Speaker 3: know what direction I want to go in. I'm trying 85 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 3: to find love, I'm trying to lose weight, I'm trying 86 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 3: to achieve goals. 87 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:20,440 Speaker 4: I just feel like I'm. 88 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,360 Speaker 3: Everywhere right now, and it's to the point where it's 89 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 3: giving me overwhelmed and depressed and drained and feeling like 90 00:04:28,040 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: I'm behind in a way. 91 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:30,279 Speaker 2: Wow. 92 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 3: Like, for example, when I was in school, I was 93 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 3: way smaller than what I am now, so I've gained. 94 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:37,800 Speaker 4: A little bit more weight. 95 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 3: So I just been feeling like, you know, I just 96 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,320 Speaker 3: don't look as prettier as everybody else. And of course 97 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 3: I feel like social media for me, it takes a 98 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: part of that. So I have took a break from 99 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:53,320 Speaker 3: that to help a little bit. Another example is with love. 100 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:55,040 Speaker 3: I'm such a freaking. 101 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 4: Lover girl, like I love love, but. 102 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 3: The relationship is just not going well for me, the 103 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 3: dating error, all that stuff like, it's just not going 104 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:05,479 Speaker 3: well for me. Even if I want, like a little 105 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 3: sneakily like it never works out. And then with my schooling, 106 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 3: I've been in school for a two years trying to 107 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 3: get my nail license because I'm just like stick.

But everybody else is an entrepreneur at 110 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 3: my age, so I just feel like I'm just way 111 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 3: behind all the things I need to do. 112 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:26,920 Speaker 4: So just give me some clarity to help me. J 113 00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 4: Just thanks love. 114 00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,719 Speaker 2: You, heyy. First of all, I love you too. 115 00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,039 Speaker 1: Thank you for being vulnerable enough to open up to 116 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: me about that, because you know what you do. You 117 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: open up the floor for other younger females, younger women 118 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 1: to feel like they're not alone in this, you know, 119 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:47,080 Speaker 1: because y'all generation are going through some shit too. Of course, 120 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: a lot of identity crisis going on. Of course, when 121 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: you have media constantly shoving in your face, you can 122 00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: change who you are. You can change any part of 123 00:05:56,839 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: your body now and everybody has access to these surgeons 124 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 1: and just you know, all types of things that can 125 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:07,720 Speaker 1: help you rid of your flaws. You know, But I 126 00:06:07,760 --> 00:06:12,919 Speaker 1: think it's internal for you. You did say exactly what 127 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,039 Speaker 1: I was going to tell you. Social media will play 128 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:19,719 Speaker 1: a big part in this and how the media constantly 129 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 1: tries to manipulate our minds with just certain standards that 130 00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: we're supposed to follow, like you know. And then influencers 131 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: that I thank God for them because I started off 132 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,720 Speaker 1: as one, but I say their work would be a 133 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,800 Speaker 1: gift in accurse because they open up your eyes to 134 00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:38,600 Speaker 1: seeing I can own my own business, I can own something, 135 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: I can be a young black creator. 136 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 2: I don't have to work for nobody for the rest 137 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 2: of my life. 138 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: I am in a position where I can run my 139 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: own business. At the same time, what it does is 140 00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: it shows another side where it makes working a nine 141 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:57,359 Speaker 1: to five or being who you really are off. 142 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 2: Of social media, it looks uncool. 143 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:02,679 Speaker 1: It makes you uncool, makes you feel that you're not enough, 144 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: and I really don't agree with anybody having to feel 145 00:07:07,160 --> 00:07:11,040 Speaker 1: that way. Oh man, I'm very conflicted about your situation 146 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 1: just because I don't want you to ever feel like 147 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: because you are. 148 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: You know, you consider yourself a. 149 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: Little overweight or a lot overweight, whatever, you know, whether 150 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: you're obese, fat, you know, it's levels to it. But 151 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 1: however you feel about it, you still shouldn't let that 152 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 1: depict how you go on in your love life. And 153 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: then also listening you're twenty one, you're still trying to 154 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 1: figure out you. I wouldn't be asking for love right now. 155 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:34,960 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say you don't know what love is. 156 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: I would never say that. 157 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 1: I wouldn't even say that to an eighteen year old 158 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: because what love is to you maybe different for what 159 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: love is to me. Love has no one fucking meaning, 160 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, So it goes by experience 161 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,440 Speaker 1: of what you feel. But I will say, you have 162 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: a lot going on, so you can't focus on one thing. 163 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,200 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, You can't focus on love 164 00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,080 Speaker 1: right now because you also told me in the same 165 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,720 Speaker 1: breath you're trying to figure out. 166 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 2: Who you are. 167 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: There's no way that you could be ready for a 168 00:08:02,760 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: relationship and you don't know who you are. So what 169 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,880 Speaker 1: I think is that you love the idea of love. 170 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:10,480 Speaker 1: You know, you love what it looks like. You know, 171 00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: you love what it can be. You love all the possibilities. 172 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: You love what you see visually, what looks good visually 173 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,720 Speaker 1: to you, and then you probably see a lot of 174 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 1: relationship goals too, you know what I'm saying. And that's good. 175 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: You took a break from social media. I actually have 176 00:08:26,720 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 1: family members that have. 177 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 2: To do that. 178 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: I have friends that have to do that. I know 179 00:08:31,760 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: other influencers that have to do that. 180 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 2: I do that. 181 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: We need breaks, you know, because you could kind of 182 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:40,640 Speaker 1: like feel like Instagram is the world and it's not, 183 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 1: and you're constantly reminded when you exit out the ad. Damn, 184 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:48,520 Speaker 1: that's just one part. That's social media, you know what 185 00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 1: I mean. It takes over our lives and it plays 186 00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: a big part in our confidence, you know. So I 187 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: think you should do a lot more soul searching. You 188 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: probably will not be in a relationship until you hit thirty. 189 00:08:58,520 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 1: That don't need to scare you, that just needs some 190 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 1: motivate you, you know, stay on your path and figure 191 00:09:02,880 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 1: out what you're doing with your life. 192 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 2: Girl, You ain't got no kids. 193 00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:07,679 Speaker 1: You work three jobs and you're going to school to 194 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: be a fucking nail tech and you fucking worried about 195 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: some lift. 196 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,160 Speaker 2: You got three jobs?

People say this to 217 00:09:58,360 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: people all the time, and they take it the wrong way. 218 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,360 Speaker 1: You gotta love yourself. You gotta love yourself, or I 219 00:10:02,360 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 1: do love myself. Like nah, people get more defensive after 220 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: hearing that than just actually listening. No, do you really 221 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: know what it takes to love yourself, because that's probably 222 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: why your relationships fail. You said, you're even just a 223 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 1: sneaky link. I'm no, you know, even if you want 224 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: some dick, just sometimes sometimes maybe that's not what you need. 225 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,080 Speaker 1: Maybe shit fails for a reason. Start looking at it differently. 226 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: That's not in your timing right now, you know what 227 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,000 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So yeah, like I said, just do some 228 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: more searching for who you are. You know, you're at 229 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 1: the best time right now. And then you also at 230 00:10:32,760 --> 00:10:34,439 Speaker 1: the best time to lose some more weight if that's 231 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: what you want to do. Shit, if you want to 232 00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 1: lose more weight, go do that.

Oh my god, I got all the babies today. 247 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,600 Speaker 1: Hey Joss, I'm nineteen and I'm talking to this guy 248 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: and I have intimacy issues. It's hard for me to 249 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,600 Speaker 1: open up. I've never been in a relationship before, so 250 00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 1: this part of intimacy is new and hard. It's hard 251 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: to talk about my feelings. I had a lot of trauma, 252 00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 1: so I don't want it to change our dynamic. The 253 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 1: guy is amazing. I don't want him to think he 254 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: is a problem. My question is do you think I'm 255 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 1: ready for a relationship or should I just continue to 256 00:11:37,600 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 1: explore being alone for a bit longer. By the way, 257 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 1: you can use this for the podcast in case you 258 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,120 Speaker 1: want consent. Oh that's nice, Thank you.

You got to think about it, though. 278 00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: Every person on this earth has been in that situation. 279 00:12:31,720 --> 00:12:35,000 Speaker 1: Everybody ain't born with boyfriends. Everybody has to have has 280 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 1: to jump in it some type of way. 281 00:12:36,640 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 3: You know. 282 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: Every guy ain't born with no girlfriend. You know, everybody 283 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:41,720 Speaker 1: has to jump into us some type of way. You 284 00:12:41,720 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 1: don't like talking about your feelings. You feel like that 285 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: will hinder you from a healthy relationship. I think you 286 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: need to dig deeper and figure out where that comes from. 287 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 1: You know, doesn't have anything to do with your upbringing 288 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: with people that you grew up with. You constantly seeing 289 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,880 Speaker 1: things because I know you said you had trauma, you know, 290 00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 1: but you didn't go into depth about the. 291 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:00,319 Speaker 2: Trauma, and that's okay. 292 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: I'm glad that you even you know, we don't have 293 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,319 Speaker 1: to so obviously you know, I just don't know what 294 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,079 Speaker 1: the trauma is from. It could it could be something 295 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,720 Speaker 1: more recent, it could be deeply rooted, but that's probably, 296 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: you know, more than likely where it comes from. And 297 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:16,400 Speaker 1: I understand you said, this guy is amazing, he's understanding. 298 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 1: You don't want him to think he's the problem. 299 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:19,680 Speaker 2: No, you don't. 300 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: You don't because then in restrospect, that's not fair to him. 301 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: But no, I don't think that you're ready for a relationship. 302 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,319 Speaker 1: I think you should start some counseling, or you should 303 00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,000 Speaker 1: start some therapy. It's nothing wrong with it. You see 304 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 1: that you do have issues that you want to move past. 305 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: You do see that, and that's good that you see that. 306 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: A lot of people's fear of therapy is because they 307 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 1: don't want to open up. They don't even want to 308 00:13:42,360 --> 00:13:45,240 Speaker 1: go talk to somebody. But this first step for you 309 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 1: to come in to me, I think that's amazing. I 310 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 1: do think that you should seek further therapy. Because I'm 311 00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:54,800 Speaker 1: not a licensed professional, I can only give you good advice. 312 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 1: Figure yourself out. Then you also still nineteen. I'm gonna 313 00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:58,840 Speaker 1: tell you like I told her the last baby, girl, 314 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,439 Speaker 1: you're nineteen, two more years til you hit twenty one, 315 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 1: but in my eyes, you're still a baby. I got 316 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,200 Speaker 1: a little sister that's nineteen, you know, and I just 317 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 1: watching her navigate through her social life. You know, it's 318 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: way different than mine was. You know, when I was nineteen, 319 00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: we weren't doing something. The first of all, y'all even 320 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 1: look already, and y'all need to look nineteen. Now, y'all 321 00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:24,400 Speaker 1: starting to look like y'all already got bbls and shit. 322 00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:24,920 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. 323 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,360 Speaker 1: And y'all bodies just all just full figure like that, 324 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,760 Speaker 1: y'all developing more, y'all just exposed to everything. 325 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,320 Speaker 2: I don't know. So I do think that you just 326 00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:36,760 Speaker 2: need to explore just being alone for a bit longer. 327 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:39,080 Speaker 1: And you already knew that. You just needed to clarity, 328 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:40,880 Speaker 1: and I'm here to give it to you, girls, So 329 00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:43,960 Speaker 1: keep me updated, let me know what's going on.

It's gonna be my first in person mass effix, 342 00:15:20,080 --> 00:15:20,600 Speaker 1: so we'll see. 343 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 2: Let's see. 344 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 4: Hey, Jazz, So I have been a long term situationship 345 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 4: and I just need some advice on something that I 346 00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:33,560 Speaker 4: really you know, have been worried about for it. And 347 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,360 Speaker 4: this is because of my own personal growth. So I'm 348 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 4: in my relationship, I'm the more communicated person and the 349 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 4: other person is a person who needs time to walk away. Right, 350 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:45,640 Speaker 4: That's the thing, like I need, I need to get 351 00:15:45,720 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 4: some space clear my mind. And that's it's understandable, you 352 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 4: know that people some people can't just get to the 353 00:15:51,680 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 4: bottom of it real quick. They need a time to 354 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,080 Speaker 4: see what they going through. But it's like when does 355 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 4: it get like okay, now, this is getting played out 356 00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 4: because if you think about it, the number one answer 357 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 4: that older people will have successful relationships say is what 358 00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 4: communication beyond? Like that's like the number one thing everybody say, 359 00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 4: because you have to find a way to really find 360 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:14,160 Speaker 4: that balance to communicate. Right, And it's like, well, thank god, 361 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 4: both of us is not like that. I can't that's 362 00:16:16,360 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 4: avoid it. But one person is begging to communicating, other 363 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:21,760 Speaker 4: person's not. So then that means that it has to 364 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 4: be more of an aggressive like exit, which is, oh, 365 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:26,960 Speaker 4: I'm gonna hang out, I'm gonna block you or some 366 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:28,960 Speaker 4: shit like that. Right, It's not like because I'm gonna 367 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 4: be like no, I want to talk and it's like, nah, 368 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 4: completely block you out, and you could be literally like 369 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,200 Speaker 4: sending messages like just talk to me. It's like, okay, 370 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 4: it's fine, let's just get this. Like it's not that 371 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 4: big of a deal. And you don't hear from them, 372 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,480 Speaker 4: so it's like, how do you deal with that going forward? 373 00:16:43,840 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's actually a really really good one because I 374 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,400 Speaker 1: can see how both could feel. You know, I feel 375 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 1: like you just describe introvert versus extrovert, but in a relationship, 376 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: that's not how it's supposed to be. There needs to 377 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 1: be a willingness to come out of your show. 378 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,040 Speaker 2: A little bit more and open up, like as this guy. 379 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:09,679 Speaker 1: If I know that I'm with a person who is 380 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:13,879 Speaker 1: a bit communicator. All she does is communicate it, and 381 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: I know I'm not I'm gonna try to meet her there. 382 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,359 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like you know, and I 383 00:17:20,440 --> 00:17:22,480 Speaker 1: understand because I was even like that. 384 00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:24,280 Speaker 2: I was on both sides. 385 00:17:24,320 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 1: I'm on more of your side now where I am 386 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,199 Speaker 1: communicating more, But at first I was the same way. 387 00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 1: I guess that's why I can kind of see where 388 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,680 Speaker 1: he would be coming from. But I had to change that, 389 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: and I was willing to change that meeting the right person. 390 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: I was always aggressive and I was always just like no, yo, 391 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: I don't want to talk about it. I need time 392 00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 1: because some people sometimes some people want to be mad 393 00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:47,800 Speaker 1: that shit is fucked up, but some people want to 394 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:48,960 Speaker 1: be mad, they want. 395 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 2: To get it off. That's how some people get shit 396 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 2: off their chests. 397 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,760 Speaker 1: He's not really a mediator because has he seen that 398 00:17:54,760 --> 00:17:57,440 Speaker 1: shit growing up? Has he always been that way because 399 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 1: his parents didn't talk to him, or he just has 400 00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:04,040 Speaker 1: never been in a place where he felt safe enough 401 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: to open up. And I don't know your past, you know, 402 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,240 Speaker 1: I don't even know his past. Book, from what you're 403 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:12,480 Speaker 1: telling me, you kind of had a different upbringing than 404 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:12,920 Speaker 1: he did. 405 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,720 Speaker 2: I don't know whether that that's household wise. 406 00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:21,679 Speaker 1: Parent schooling, different groups of friends, you know, because anything 407 00:18:21,720 --> 00:18:24,040 Speaker 1: can define who you are as an adult. 408 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 2: It don't have to always be how you was raised. 409 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:28,360 Speaker 2: It could be you raise yourself, you know what I mean. 410 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 1: It could be different people, different people that you met 411 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,400 Speaker 1: on your journey to becoming an adult and how they 412 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: prophesied to you, or seeing this person come from this 413 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 1: walk of life, so like it's just figuring out a 414 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: person is this way you want to be? And you said, 415 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: y'all been in a relationship for a long time. Y'all 416 00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:47,879 Speaker 1: not together now, but y'all were in a long term relationship. 417 00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: Is this a place where you see yourself going back 418 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:51,359 Speaker 1: to or do you not? 419 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 2: Are you conflicted at times? Because that can make you 420 00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: be with a person. I don't want to be with 421 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: him this time, but I didn't. 422 00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 1: I do want to be with him, though, But when 423 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: he does something to make you mad, goes out the window, 424 00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,560 Speaker 1: and then he comes around and y'all talk about it, 425 00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:04,880 Speaker 1: and then now you want to be with him again? 426 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 2: Is that? 427 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 1: How do you know you want to move forward with 428 00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: this person? Do you see a future with this person? 429 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 4: And I'm gaining more self worth, I don't because, like 430 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 4: you said, when you just respond to back, it's like 431 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 4: you move differently now because of this love that you 432 00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:22,040 Speaker 4: don't want to miss out on it. So I'm at 433 00:19:22,040 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 4: a place where it's like I'm gonna have to be 434 00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 4: okay with realizing that maybe I can't bring that out 435 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 4: of him mm hm. And and that hurts right, like 436 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 4: that this man don't love me enough to be like 437 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 4: I want to work it's out with her. I want 438 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,199 Speaker 4: to talk to her. So I'm at a place now 439 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 4: I know my worth, like yes, I do have my 440 00:19:36,760 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 4: shit right, like I know. And even though in my communication, 441 00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:43,560 Speaker 4: like you you know, I sometimes I can talk around 442 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:45,239 Speaker 4: to get to a point because I wanted us to 443 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,040 Speaker 4: get to a page without letting somebody go through it, right, 444 00:19:48,080 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 4: And I'm learning that and I'm more than help. That's 445 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:51,880 Speaker 4: why I was like, you gotta walk away. I get it. 446 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:56,679 Speaker 4: But it's the extra shit hang out answering like it's 447 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 4: it's it's it creates too much of a like I get, 448 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,479 Speaker 4: I be hurt. I don't even I've heard like yo, 449 00:20:01,880 --> 00:20:03,359 Speaker 4: this person. Now, I'm not gonna talk to them for 450 00:20:03,440 --> 00:20:08,400 Speaker 4: days now, i gotta be left here just like yeah, 451 00:20:08,480 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 4: until when they calmed down, like a few days later, 452 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 4: and I'm just like over it. 453 00:20:11,720 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 2: You know, that shit is not fair. Like I said, 454 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:15,919 Speaker 2: I used to do that. 455 00:20:16,160 --> 00:20:18,320 Speaker 1: I used to do that to people, and that shit 456 00:20:18,440 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: is not fair because it now it leaves the person 457 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: wondering whether or not you do actually really love them, 458 00:20:26,920 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: like or do you even respect me? 459 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 2: Because that's when things getting disrespectful. 460 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 1: It's the difference between an extrovert and just shutting down 461 00:20:34,119 --> 00:20:35,639 Speaker 1: versus the disrespect. 462 00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: You don't have to hang up, you don't have to 463 00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,439 Speaker 2: block me, you don't have to not talk to me 464 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 2: for days. 465 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 1: What are you trying to prove a point? Because that's 466 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:42,960 Speaker 1: what it comes to. Now, you're trying to prove a point. 467 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 1: And then that's the manipulative too, because those type of 468 00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 1: people always know what to do to get back and 469 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:50,919 Speaker 1: your good graces. Like they're selfish in a way, you know, 470 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:55,359 Speaker 1: and sometimes subconsciously selfish, and those people don't like to 471 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: be told about themselves. I was selfish. I never like 472 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: to be told about myself. I didn't want to be 473 00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: in control, but I just wanted things to go my 474 00:21:03,720 --> 00:21:06,560 Speaker 1: way and people to see shit my way all the time. 475 00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: And shit ain't gonna be like that, not in the 476 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,320 Speaker 1: real world, not in your household, not at your job, 477 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: not with your friends, because everybody thinks differently. Communication really 478 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:21,919 Speaker 1: is a big factor with love. Sometimes you can love 479 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 1: a motherfucker, but you feel empty because you don't feel 480 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: like you're being loved. If you don't hear me, you 481 00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:31,400 Speaker 1: don't give me an opportunity to be heard. You're not listening. 482 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 1: You don't want to listen, so you don't even want 483 00:21:33,840 --> 00:21:36,280 Speaker 1: to find out what the problem is, and then you 484 00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 1: don't want to fix it. 485 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:40,679 Speaker 4: And this is another note, they really really is a 486 00:21:40,680 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 4: struggle for me because it's abuse. Yeah, Like you know 487 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 4: how like if your maybe parent spanks you, right and 488 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:49,080 Speaker 4: they could have been wrong for it because they was 489 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 4: doing out of anger. Then they come back I'm so sorry, 490 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 4: Or somebody who's dating who's going through abuse, it's like, baby, 491 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 4: next time, I'm gonna do it.
