So she heard me 52 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: on my Labelmates podcast. We talked back and she reached 53 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 1: out to me. And when when we started talking through 54 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: DM because I feel like we've been talking like every 55 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 1: day since she read out And I was very shocked 56 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,520 Speaker 1: about your story, Like I think you called my attention 57 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 1: like immediately, because you know, we do hear about these 58 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: stories coming from men, but I also think a lot 59 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,200 Speaker 1: of men be on a download, but I never heard 60 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,200 Speaker 1: about this story from a woman's perspective.

But he claimed to go to 717 00:37:58,640 --> 00:38:02,359 Speaker 2: that school. So I asked him for the line name. 718 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,080 Speaker 2: I asked him for his line number. I asked what's 719 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 2: his line brother's. 720 00:38:06,120 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 1: Names and what he's saying. 721 00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:10,760 Speaker 2: He came up and some bullshit.

Even 727 00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,640 Speaker 2: on the Father's Day, I gave him a shout out 728 00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:28,080 Speaker 2: and he was like thanks, no, no, no, I didn't give 729 00:38:28,080 --> 00:38:30,040 Speaker 2: a shout out. My well, I did, but then my 730 00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 2: words gave a shout out. And then when I was 731 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,319 Speaker 2: shouting out other alphas, he gave the middle finger. But 732 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,719 Speaker 2: but then know other alpha's question like, bruh, why why 733 00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 2: are you looking us off? Like what's the problem? Right, 734 00:38:42,600 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 2: But one of his nephews is an alpha, So whoever 735 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:51,120 Speaker 2: he talks to or whoever he's close to, he imitates 736 00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,920 Speaker 2: their life. So since I'm a psychology major, he claimed 737 00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 2: that he was a psychologist. Since this other girl went 738 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,719 Speaker 2: to school in Louisiana, he claimed that's who he went to. 739 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 2: This other lady who's a business owner, he took some 740 00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:08,200 Speaker 2: of her information and using this his is mm, so 741 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:10,840 Speaker 2: everything's a lie, honey, everything? 742 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:15,799 Speaker 1: Yeah, that is crazy. So looking back, what advice would 743 00:39:15,800 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: you give to others who might find themselves in a 744 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: similar situation? 745 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:29,120 Speaker 2: Ask questions, investigate, yeah, ask for all identification. People who 746 00:39:29,160 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 2: don't have friends is a red flag to me. And 747 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:38,200 Speaker 2: he didn't have friends. He had no hobbies and that's 748 00:39:38,200 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 2: why he had all the time in the world to 749 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,200 Speaker 2: manipulate others. 750 00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: Now, you mentioned earlier that the girl who introduced y'all, 751 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,040 Speaker 1: do you think she did this on purpose because you 752 00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:50,000 Speaker 1: say you don't trust her. 753 00:39:50,680 --> 00:39:53,360 Speaker 2: No, I don't think she did it on purpose. But 754 00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:01,080 Speaker 2: she had a bad rep on Facebook, and she went 755 00:40:01,160 --> 00:40:02,680 Speaker 2: to hide in for a minute because a lot of 756 00:40:02,680 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 2: people are after her for their money. And I just 757 00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,080 Speaker 2: said that she was in a really dark place and 758 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:09,080 Speaker 2: she was accepting any friend at that time. 759 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 1: Right right now.

I love Michelle and everything, 807 00:42:29,719 --> 00:42:37,359 Speaker 2: but I'm going very low because I'm telling you I 808 00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 2: am a heterosexual woman. I never wanted a woman mm hmm, 809 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:47,239 Speaker 2: and that choice was taken away from me. So to me, 810 00:42:47,880 --> 00:42:48,560 Speaker 2: that's rape. 811 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:49,560 Speaker 1: Mhm. 812 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 2: So to be raped by a woman knowing that I'm 813 00:42:55,160 --> 00:43:04,040 Speaker 2: straight and never confessing to me the real identity, that's 814 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:08,600 Speaker 2: a huge problem for me. And to know that he's 815 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:11,799 Speaker 2: still like, you're doing this and still getting away with it, 816 00:43:12,280 --> 00:43:12,920 Speaker 2: that makes. 817 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:16,279 Speaker 1: It even worse, right right, No, I get it. You 818 00:43:16,320 --> 00:43:19,880 Speaker 1: were definitely violated, and I think something should be done 819 00:43:20,600 --> 00:43:23,799 Speaker 1: because for someone to take that choice away from you, 820 00:43:24,120 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: that's that's fucked up. Yeah yeah, yeah, And I can 821 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:30,839 Speaker 1: tell that not only did the lie hurt you, but 822 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:34,800 Speaker 1: also the fact that you know you're not attracted to women, 823 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 1: So no, no, I feel like and also you know, 824 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: just by you sharing your background from being you know, 825 00:43:41,080 --> 00:43:43,879 Speaker 1: being born in a certain denomination. I feel like that's 826 00:43:43,920 --> 00:43:45,359 Speaker 1: what's really bothering you as well. 827 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't practice that anymore. I'm more spiritual 828 00:43:50,600 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 2: than anything, because I feel like these organized religions were 829 00:43:55,000 --> 00:44:03,400 Speaker 2: forced onto us by our enslavers, and I'm taking myself 830 00:44:03,520 --> 00:44:07,000 Speaker 2: away from all of that. I'm getting out of that mindset. 831 00:44:07,040 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 2: But whoever wants to live the life they want to live, 832 00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:11,680 Speaker 2: they still want to believe in all that, that's up 833 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 2: to them. But I'm researching on my own and coming 834 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 2: into my own, and I just feel like so much 835 00:44:20,520 --> 00:44:24,400 Speaker 2: was already stripped away from us. For this person to 836 00:44:24,440 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 2: be black themselves and strip more away from me, that's 837 00:44:30,239 --> 00:44:34,879 Speaker 2: what really hurt. That was really the knife in the back. 838 00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 2: And I even talked to him before.
