No, no, no, no, no, no, 180 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: I literally call if you listen all the time like 181 00:08:46,840 --> 00:08:50,560 Speaker 1: you say you do, I say baby, I call a 182 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: lot of my women baby girl, just because I don't 183 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: know the ages that you women are. Yes, you do 184 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:03,439 Speaker 1: look a lot youthful. You look you look very very youthful, 185 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: and you're a photo very nice and curvy too. But yeah, 186 00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 1: you know, you know, little petite, slim little thing, but yeah, 187 00:09:12,920 --> 00:09:16,680 Speaker 1: you do look young. So that that's the only reason 188 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: that I call you baby girl, not to be smart. 189 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 1: I ain't one of those. To be a baby girl, 190 00:09:21,040 --> 00:09:23,960 Speaker 1: a sweetie. Uh yea, no, not to be smart. No, 191 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:28,160 Speaker 1: I'm not. I literally wasn't. I do want to thank you, 192 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 1: and I appreciate you being vulnerable enough to actually reach 193 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: back out after me saying don't be you know, don't 194 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: reach back out to me and all of that. I 195 00:09:38,960 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: was just very upset because I was like, no, she 196 00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 1: did not call herself checking me. Yes, it does put 197 00:09:44,040 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 1: a negative connotation on things when you say things, so 198 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 1: I'm checking you. You know what I mean. Just these days, 199 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:53,360 Speaker 1: wordplay is so it can mean so many different things. 200 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 1: If you're not directly talking to a person one on one, 201 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: anything can get misconstrued or missing turn or anything. When 202 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: you're sending voice notes. So when you're sending text messages, 203 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:08,679 Speaker 1: like if you're not in the same like area as 204 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:11,000 Speaker 1: a person, if you're not talking one on one, she 205 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: can kind of get lost in translation. You know, people 206 00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:16,560 Speaker 1: can assume things. I'm so happy that you were not 207 00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 1: offended by anything I said. I'm so happy that you 208 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 1: did hit me back. Guys, I did send her a 209 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:23,720 Speaker 1: message that I did not preview you guys too, because 210 00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,880 Speaker 1: I felt like that was for me and her and 211 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,199 Speaker 1: not for you guys. Basically, just you know, telling her 212 00:10:30,240 --> 00:10:32,240 Speaker 1: that you know, I hurt my feelings. I ain't think 213 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,199 Speaker 1: that she you know, she critiqued me and came at 214 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 1: me and all of that, you know, check me, But 215 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,320 Speaker 1: she ain't listened to the whole thing. And and see, 216 00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,200 Speaker 1: this is why communication is good as well. I didn't 217 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,440 Speaker 1: know that she listened to twenty one minutes of it. 218 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: She didn't listen to nine minutes. I thought she said 219 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:48,480 Speaker 1: she listened to only nine minutes of it. So yes, 220 00:10:48,880 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 1: but I appreciate you girl. Keep on going back and 221 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,360 Speaker 1: forth with me, and if you got any more mess 222 00:10:52,400 --> 00:10:55,400 Speaker 1: for me to fix, let me know. Hold up, hold up, 223 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: I noticed shit getting good. But listen to just a 224 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: couple seconds of a commercial. If you love me, you'll listen, 225 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: all right. Moving on to the next story, here we go. Hey, Jess, 226 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: am I wrong? So my best friend of fifteen years 227 00:11:08,200 --> 00:11:10,280 Speaker 1: just got engaged and she asked me to be her 228 00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: maid of honor. I respectfully declined because I know that 229 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: she's cheating on her now fiance and has no plans 230 00:11:16,280 --> 00:11:20,199 Speaker 1: of stopping. Damn. I told her I can't support her 231 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 1: nor attend the wedding. She said, if I don't come, 232 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 1: it will raise red flags? Am I wrong? Or should 233 00:11:26,800 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 1: I stand my ground? M all right? So look check 234 00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: this out right. What I think is this is a 235 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: very complex story, and this can tear you as a 236 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,600 Speaker 1: best friend and then as a woman, because as a woman, 237 00:11:39,640 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: you standing on dignity, you standing on integrity, you standing 238 00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: on morals. You know what I'm saying, and what you 239 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,560 Speaker 1: believe in. What you believe is that when you're marrying somebody, 240 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 1: you have to be faithful. And upon getting married, you're 241 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: you're writing your vows. This is a covenant, you know, 242 00:11:57,120 --> 00:12:02,240 Speaker 1: of commitment that we're about to you know, signed before God. 243 00:12:02,600 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. Aka, this is a contract, nigga. 244 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 1: You can't you can't fuck this up. Basically, and in 245 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: God's eyes, this is a sacred contract, a covenant of 246 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:16,680 Speaker 1: commitment to be together forever, for better or for worse. 247 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: This bitch is already a how worse?

I would say I'm not gonna lie.

I 333 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:12,600 Speaker 1: don't think that she's ready. I do not think that 334 00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:16,840 Speaker 1: she's ready. And I'm sorry. If she choose to be like, 335 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what she's talking about, I'm ready. I'll 336 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 1: be like, all right, that's fine, and then I will 337 00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:27,159 Speaker 1: step back in line. So niggas, no niggas, could just 338 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:29,800 Speaker 1: try to stop the shit. So that way that the 339 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 1: voice won't look so ugly, the voice won't look like 340 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,399 Speaker 1: it just came out of fucking nowhere because Jes tried 341 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 1: the warners. Period. Now we got a commercial, and if 342 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 1: you click off of this podcast, I swear I'm gonna 343 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:47,280 Speaker 1: beat your ass. Listen. Now, I know a lot of 344 00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,200 Speaker 1: my listeners are going to be like, Jess is lying. 345 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: She is not about to stand up there against our 346 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,720 Speaker 1: best friend and say no bullshit like that. And da 347 00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,439 Speaker 1: da da da da da da, and said, listen, you 348 00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: shitting me, You shitting me? At solutely understand as a 349 00:18:02,840 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: best friend the position that you are put in. And 350 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:07,760 Speaker 1: I honestly feel like you should have a conversation with 351 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 1: your girls, she says, she I don't want to, she don't, 352 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 1: she ain't gonna stop, don't be in a wedding. I 353 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: honestly feel like that I just gave you what I 354 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 1: would do and what I would do would probably embarrass 355 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: her much more, you know, embarrass her furthermore. But it's 356 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:27,119 Speaker 1: better to get that shit out the way then then 357 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:31,360 Speaker 1: later on break this man's heart over something that could 358 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,119 Speaker 1: have been prevented, you know what I mean. I know 359 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 1: the wedding is already probably paid for. She wants to 360 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 1: have a cake and eat it too, and shit like that, 361 00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:43,439 Speaker 1: and I know that. But you know, obviously you are 362 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:49,120 Speaker 1: a woman of deep morale, and you just don't. You don't. 363 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 1: You don't like certain shit, you don't stand for certain shit. 364 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,280 Speaker 1: And I feel like as a woman, you're doing the 365 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,560 Speaker 1: right thing, and as a best friend you're doing an 366 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:59,400 Speaker 1: even wrter thing. Just have that conversation. This may put 367 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: a wedge, drop a wedge between you and your best friend, 368 00:19:03,080 --> 00:19:05,720 Speaker 1: but when it's for the greater good and the bigger picture, 369 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 1: I don't see anything wrong with that. And if it 370 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,119 Speaker 1: ain't gonna physically hurt you or mentally hurt you or 371 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 1: emotionally hurt you to lose a friend for a little while, 372 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 1: I say, shit, don't go, don't be in it, or 373 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: you can go, just don't be in it, you know 374 00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: what I mean, But definitely tell her how the fuck 375 00:19:22,880 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: you feel. You definitely gotta tell her you can't just 376 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,359 Speaker 1: like say I don't want to be in a wedding 377 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:31,800 Speaker 1: and then she not know why, you know what I mean. 378 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 1: Obviously she knows you have your reservations about this shit 379 00:19:35,640 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: because you told me that. She said it would be 380 00:19:40,760 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 1: raising red flags if you don't come. How the fuck 381 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: would that be a red flag? To be honest with you, 382 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,120 Speaker 1: it'd just be me and my best friend fell out. 383 00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: Has your best friend ever come close to her husband 384 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: finding out that she cheating my fiance finding out that 385 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 1: she's cheating? And is it with multiple men? Is this 386 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:59,679 Speaker 1: like a mistress type of thing? Like does she have 387 00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: an go on the side or just one main nigga 388 00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:05,000 Speaker 1: on the side? You know, I need to know.

You know, you brought this shit 396 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,960 Speaker 1: up to her obviously, and she's probably gonna know because 397 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:33,600 Speaker 1: she's probably an avid, carefully reckless listener. I also can't 398 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: help but to point out the fact that you said 399 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: I am not the only person that you gave this 400 00:20:37,600 --> 00:20:40,440 Speaker 1: story to, because you really are torn.
