Uah, and so I think that's the thing. 795 00:38:55,320 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 6: And sometimes, as shitty as it is to be a 796 00:38:58,200 --> 00:39:02,160 Speaker 6: strange from people and as aimful as that is, if 797 00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 6: that is ultimately what you both need to move forward 798 00:39:08,520 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 6: in a healthy way, then that's what you have to do. 799 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 6: And it fucking hurts like hell, but it's the choice 800 00:39:14,239 --> 00:39:17,839 Speaker 6: that you have to make to do something because you 801 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 6: know that the alternative is something that is never going 802 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 6: to get better, and getting better is something that you 803 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 6: both have to work on. So you may in your 804 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:29,360 Speaker 6: questions say like, how do I put my anger aside? 805 00:39:30,440 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 6: Get past your anger and just recognize what you need 806 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,480 Speaker 6: to do for yourself to be the best, healthiest version 807 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 6: of yourself.
