14
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 1: girl and I have been together for three years and

15
00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: I instantly knew she was the one when I met her.

16
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: She cooks, watches sports with me, and she supports my

17
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 1: dream to be an entertainer. Our relationship was just perfect

18
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: until about a months ago when I was on an

19
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:05,639
Speaker 1: adult website browsing through amateur home videos and I noticed

20
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:09,919
Speaker 1: one video with a background that looked just like my bedroom.

21
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 1: After I zoomed in, I saw that it was my

22
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,320
Speaker 1: bedroom and it was a video of my girlfriend and

23
00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:20,760
Speaker 1: I getting it on. I immediately confronted her, and she

24
00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: told me that she too wants to be an entertainer

25
00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:29,680
Speaker 1: dot dot an adult film star. She told me that

26
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 1: she has posted over twenty videos of our best work

27
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,880
Speaker 1: in the bedroom. Now, I'm not a shy person, but

28
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 1: she should have at least told me first this is crazy,

29
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,680
Speaker 1: right should I should I have covered so I could

30
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 1: have covered my face. She begged me to keep participating

31
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: in the videos with her, so now it's something that

32
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:51,960
Speaker 1: we do often. She makes good money from uploading the

33
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: videos to the site, so this has become a lucrative

34
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: part time job for her. But I can't help but

35
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,320
Speaker 1: think that this could come back to bite me in

36
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 1: the butt one day and keep me from becoming a

37
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,880
Speaker 1: successful entertainer. Last week, I told her that I'm out

38
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: of the home video business with her. Okay. I told

39
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: her that I want to settle down with her and

40
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,760
Speaker 1: have a normal lifestyle. Well, she is furious with me

41
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,680
Speaker 1: and said that she's been supporting my dream for two years,

42
00:02:20,720 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 1: but I won't support hers So, Stephen Shirley, should I

43
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,639
Speaker 1: support my dream and make this thing work or should

44
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,320
Speaker 1: I leave this madness and move on? Please help? No,

45
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 1: absolutely not. You cannot support this. This is madness. You

46
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:38,600
Speaker 1: need to move on from this. I mean, you know

47
00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: this isn't right. Come on, why would you want to

48
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: do this? And and yes, people are going to find out.

49
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 1: I mean you're in the entertainment business, so there's some

50
00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: leniency there. But you can never take these videos back.

51
00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,119
Speaker 1: They're going to live on the internet forever. Your heart

52
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,520
Speaker 1: isn't into this. You don't want to do this. This

53
00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: is why is this her dream? Anyway? You've been with

54
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 1: her for three years and it is a betrayal because

55
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 1: she didn't tell you. You have to agree to this

56
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,239
Speaker 1: if you're going to have your butt out on the

57
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 1: video on the internet. Come on now, this is craziness

58
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 1: right here. Uh yeah, she's wrong on every level, especially

59
00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,320
Speaker 1: because she didn't tell you. If your dream is to

60
00:03:22,360 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 1: be an entertainer, an entertainer, uh, this is not the

61
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,360
Speaker 1: way to break into the business. I guarantee you that

62
00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 1: some people have yes, and they've gone on to to

63
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:35,440
Speaker 1: do bigger and better things or whatever. But I don't

64
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:37,040
Speaker 1: think you need to be a part of that. No,

65
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,160
Speaker 1: she's wrong on every level for doing this. Should you

66
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 1: should you support her? I don't think you should and

67
00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: make this thing work? No? No, should you leave this

68
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,240
Speaker 1: madness and move on? For sure? Leave the madness. And

69
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: if she's mad at you for not supporting it, you're

70
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: gonna have to leave her too, Steve bro I don't
