[00:00:00] Speaker A: Welcome back to relationship status. [00:00:03] Speaker B: I am Angel. [00:00:04] Speaker C: And I'm Chanel. [00:00:05] Speaker A: It's your boy Yousef in the building. And remember, you can find us on all podcast platforms. Remember, like share, follow, and five star rate. We live first time in five years that the show is live. It's been a minute. It's been a. A hot minute since we've been live. So thank y' all for tapping in. For those who are, please, please take your time and share it. Okay? You didn't. I didn't want you to hear it there. [00:00:32] Speaker C: Act like you didn't, huh? Act like you did. [00:00:35] Speaker A: But I did. The people did. Like, you're not supposed to have that background noise. But anyway, man, how's everybody going? How's the week? Y' all look good. Y' all brought out y' all Saturday night best makeup and all. [00:00:51] Speaker C: Little twinkle. [00:00:53] Speaker B: Despite the wardrobe malfunction. [00:00:54] Speaker A: Despite the. Listen, anybody, any man out there understands what it's like waiting on women to get dressed. And I got two of them in here. [00:01:04] Speaker C: Don't do that. We got it done. [00:01:05] Speaker B: Listen, we. [00:01:06] Speaker A: I don't want to hear I got it done. [00:01:08] Speaker C: We got it done. [00:01:08] Speaker A: You got it done. We. We five minutes late, though. [00:01:11] Speaker B: Had things happen. [00:01:12] Speaker C: We was five minutes late because of you. [00:01:14] Speaker B: Yeah, don't do that. And I was already. [00:01:15] Speaker C: Don't agree with your left foot. [00:01:17] Speaker A: Don't. See, now here we go. Oh, my cousin shouts out, what's up, E? [00:01:21] Speaker B: I was already sitting here. [00:01:22] Speaker A: Thank you for being on. Let's get into today's topic, man. All right, so. So today's topic is. So we both cheated. So we both cheated, right? All right. Your partner cheats on you. You find out you're hurt, you're angry, you feel betrayed, and then you say, okay, bet I got you. And you cheat back. Now the question is, are we even or are we just two people who need to be single? [00:01:53] Speaker B: Both. Can it be both? [00:01:55] Speaker A: What you mean, can it be both? [00:01:56] Speaker B: You can. We can just. [00:01:58] Speaker C: You can't be single and you got over it and you still together. I. I think it's like this. Some people can cheat and say, hey, you know what? I got my one back. And truly can get over it. Because sometimes people do things out of anger and then realize, you know what? I need to correct my wrong. [00:02:20] Speaker B: Right? [00:02:20] Speaker C: And actually correct their wrongs. And then you have some people who are just that vengeful at heart and will keep repeating the error. You know what I'm saying? [00:02:30] Speaker A: Yeah. What you. About what you said? [00:02:32] Speaker B: I raised my hand. [00:02:33] Speaker C: I'm just Kidding. No, she's still in school mode. [00:02:36] Speaker B: Excuse me, sorry. No, I feel like if you. Like she said, if you cheat, I'm like, hey, I got my lip back. But somebody, I think if you keep doing it, then I think it comes to the point to where like, okay, y' all might need to be single, [00:02:51] Speaker A: but who wants to keep? Who? I mean, but who's keep. Why would you keep doing that? [00:02:55] Speaker B: Oh, I know. I know somebody right now. Her and her husband, they do it. He do it, and then she do it, and then he do it. Like right now, to this day, I ain't calling nobody names. [00:03:05] Speaker C: Brandon said both as well. Why Brandon? Why both? Why both? [00:03:10] Speaker B: I know somebody too, but I'm not putting their business out. [00:03:14] Speaker A: What you about to say somebody at what? [00:03:16] Speaker B: But I know two people that do that right now. [00:03:21] Speaker A: I just don't think. I think that. First off, here's my thing on cheating. Show's been. We've been recording since 2019, and since 2019, I've been saying, if you cheat or I cheat, I'm out. Ain't no look back, ain't no get back, ain't no nothing. If you cheat, I cheat, I'm out. Cause if I cheat, I can't deal with the lack of I can't deal with the lack of trust that you're gonna have. I can't deal with the way you ats. I can't deal with the share my location, I can't deal with none of that. And if you cheat on me, I'm out. Because you don't wanna be with me. If you felt the need to do [00:04:01] Speaker C: that, I'm reading it. [00:04:04] Speaker A: Brandon said, are we telling each other I got my lick back, now I'm done? That's. That's a good question. What if somebody said that I got my lick back, now I'm done? [00:04:13] Speaker C: I personally feel like this. If I got my lick back, I ain't got to tell you I got my lip bag. That's why I'm done anyway, cuz I'm going to get my lick back. But if I. I mean, but that's the whole purpose. [00:04:22] Speaker B: If I want to hurt you, then I'mma tell you. [00:04:25] Speaker C: Then I'mma tell you I got my lip back. Because I want you to know I got my one, I want you to know. But then why, Like I said, if you got a vengeful heart and I want you to know that you hurt me and I want you to know I hurt you back, then I'm already out. I was out before I did it. That's the reason why I did it. [00:04:40] Speaker A: Okay. Jerome said, go ahead. [00:04:41] Speaker C: You got a vengeful heart. Like, I want to get you back, but everybody doesn't think that way. You know what I'm saying? Like, some people cheat because of what they're going through themselves. It's not really about their partner. It's about them, the reason why they cheat. So just. Because if I'm dating Craig, if I'm dating Craig, and Craig cheated on me because of his own selfish reasons, and I cheated on Craig because of my own selfish reasons, and neither one of us know the other one was cheating, and it had nothing to do with each other. You get what I'm saying? [00:05:12] Speaker B: Right? [00:05:12] Speaker C: And we end up finding out that you was hoeing and I was hoeing. You know what I'm saying? It had nothing to do with each other, but we both cheated versus Craig cheated on me, and I found out he cheated with Melissa, and I said, oh, I'm gonna cheat with his barber. Because. [00:05:27] Speaker B: No, his barber. [00:05:28] Speaker C: That's a different type of cheating. [00:05:30] Speaker B: You gotta cheat with his barber. [00:05:31] Speaker C: That's a type of cheating. [00:05:31] Speaker A: Okay, well, that's what I'm talking about. [00:05:33] Speaker C: Okay. Ball spot in the back of his head. That was for spooky. Yeah, that was for me. [00:05:38] Speaker B: It's got to be somebody who. I like his. [00:05:40] Speaker A: So here's a question. [00:05:40] Speaker B: Mess up his line. [00:05:41] Speaker A: Here's a question. [00:05:42] Speaker C: Well, J said it depends on. If it's repetitive cheating, then it's done. And I agree with that. Like, if you cheating on me and you cheat, you constantly cheating on me. [00:05:50] Speaker B: That's. Let that go. It's. [00:05:52] Speaker C: It's a difference. And you just cheated at one time. I can forgive some things, but when you said you did this, and I didn't mean to do it, or I was going through something, or I got character defects. But then you keep doing it, and you ain't trying to correct the behavior. That's a different type of hurt. Versus. [00:06:06] Speaker B: Because my question is, like, why do you keep doing it? [00:06:09] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:06:09] Speaker B: Yeah. Is it like you just want to. Some men just want multiple women. That's just. [00:06:16] Speaker A: That's the way of the world. [00:06:19] Speaker B: So you say. So you're saying every man wants multiple women. [00:06:24] Speaker A: Every. Listen, let me. Let me say something. Any man who tells you he doesn't want multiple women is lying, man. [00:06:31] Speaker C: Hold on, hold on. [00:06:35] Speaker A: Let me finish my statement. [00:06:36] Speaker B: Okay, I'm listening. [00:06:38] Speaker A: We just know we can't do it. [00:06:41] Speaker C: Every man. [00:06:41] Speaker A: We just know that [00:06:45] Speaker C: I'm doing it for the Masses. [00:06:47] Speaker A: Now I'm saying every man would like to would like it. [00:06:53] Speaker C: Every man will like we have just [00:06:56] Speaker A: know we can't do it and we shouldn't do it. So we don't do it. We stay loyal. Monogamy is a thing who stay. [00:07:04] Speaker B: Don't do that. [00:07:05] Speaker A: Black men don't cheat. [00:07:06] Speaker C: I swear to God, light skin, I keep trying to tell you that. You don't know that. [00:07:10] Speaker B: Did you? [00:07:10] Speaker A: You lucky I can't put my middle finger up on this next line. [00:07:13] Speaker B: Please don't make. [00:07:16] Speaker C: I keep telling you I can. [00:07:18] Speaker B: Please don't make me say a bad word on this live. Did you just say black men don't cheat? You said that with a straight face. [00:07:25] Speaker A: Black men don't cheat. [00:07:25] Speaker B: You said it again. [00:07:26] Speaker A: Black men don't cheat. [00:07:27] Speaker B: And you said it again. [00:07:29] Speaker A: I said it four times. [00:07:30] Speaker C: Said. [00:07:30] Speaker A: And you want me to say it again? [00:07:32] Speaker B: You need me to say it again and every time. You lied. [00:07:35] Speaker C: I did not lie. [00:07:35] Speaker A: Black men don't cheat. Prove it. Don't talk about them pastors. Them ain't black men. I said men, not boys.

We running that. Cuz we get a. First off, let me say this. [00:09:22] Speaker C: He may have some bad habit. [00:09:24] Speaker A: Black. Black men get a really bad. [00:09:27] Speaker C: Oh, y' all got to be good. Now. My son on here. Put my phone down and sit nice. [00:09:33] Speaker A: We get a bad rep. You know what I'm saying? [00:09:35] Speaker B: Or cheating. [00:09:35] Speaker A: No, we get a bad rep, period. There's a negative connotation on black men, period. [00:09:40] Speaker B: Okay, that part I get. [00:09:41] Speaker A: Okay, so then if. If we're out here saying, yo, we trying. We trying to do good. We do. We're not trying to be doing good. So even so, a lot of times people think that just because you've cheated and I, you know, I say stuff sometimes for jokes, but if. And to Brandon's point, to Brandon's question, sometimes you make a mistake, and you just. Sometimes you just make a mistake. [00:10:01] Speaker C: But he said, what if they're a habitual cheater? [00:10:03] Speaker A: If they're habitual cheater? No, they. They. [00:10:06] Speaker B: Is that a mistake? [00:10:07] Speaker A: No, if they're habitual cheater, they got problems and they need to go seek help. [00:10:10] Speaker C: Yeah. So that means he's not a good man. [00:10:12] Speaker A: That means he's not a good man. Does that mean he's not a good man or he just got issues? [00:10:18] Speaker C: He got issues. So he's not a pleasant man.

Would be like blueface and tell these women the truth. It would be more. Man. It slid up on me. It would be more acceptable in the world. True. Like I'm saying, you can't no man stand there and sit there and say, he not. He doesn't desire or he doesn't want or he doesn't this or he doesn't that. [00:10:55] Speaker C: Brandon gone somewhere.

[00:13:01] Speaker B: Business meeting. [00:13:02] Speaker A: Exactly, exactly, exactly. [00:13:06] Speaker B: Women cheat with when they catch feelings. [00:13:09] Speaker A: And if. Okay, can we. [00:13:10] Speaker B: Okay, well, I'm a different. Never mind. [00:13:12] Speaker A: Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. So that we. We. We conduct the live correctly. [00:13:18] Speaker B: Okay. [00:13:18] Speaker A: When y' all read a comment. Me read it out loud. Don't read it to yourself. [00:13:22] Speaker C: I gotta read to myself because I gotta decipher whether I'm gonna say what I need to say. [00:13:26] Speaker A: No, no, no, no. [00:13:26] Speaker C: Or I need to say it internally. [00:13:29] Speaker A: The reason why it's live is. It's supposed to be the. [00:13:31] Speaker B: Can I read this? [00:13:33] Speaker A: Yeah, go ahead. Read that. [00:13:34] Speaker C: Okay. [00:13:35] Speaker B: Black Hawaii. I think me and him gonna have beef. Let's talk about it. Men and women cheat for different reasons. Men cheat for sports. Women cheat when they catch feelings. That emotional connection is the game changer. First of all, some women cheat when they catch feelings. I don't have none. [00:13:53] Speaker A: Oh, we know you ain't got no problem. No, no, no, no, no. First off, you're talking about somebody who was blocked up for 19 years. [00:14:03] Speaker B: Why. Why is the. Why is the emphasis all on that? It was a. It was a reference. [00:14:09] Speaker A: Reference to. I thought it was a poor reference. [00:14:11] Speaker B: Whatever. Black kawaii. I don't have feelings. [00:14:15] Speaker A: You do not have no feelings. Yeah, you talking about women. [00:14:20] Speaker C: Other part of this, it was. [00:14:23] Speaker A: Hold on, I'm going, I'm going. Y' all got me off my track. Okay, so question. If your man didn't have sex but was doing everything else, did he cheat? [00:14:40] Speaker B: Yes. [00:14:42] Speaker A: He didn't have sex. [00:14:44] Speaker B: The sex is not the way you cheating. [00:14:47] Speaker A: He just. I mean, he didn't. [00:14:48] Speaker C: He didn't do the harmless. [00:14:51] Speaker B: This may seem strange. I would rather for you just to. You had a one night stand, y' all had sex, and you keep it pushing, but you start catching feelings. When you start spending time with somebody, you don't catch no feelings because one time you got sex and I didn't [00:15:04] Speaker A: say nothing about feelings. [00:15:05] Speaker C: But cheating. [00:15:06] Speaker A: They doing everything else. They didn't have no sex. [00:15:08] Speaker C: Cheating starts before the physical act. It's not always about the physical for women. For people, no. [00:15:15] Speaker A: For men, it's completely physical. For women it has. [00:15:18] Speaker C: And it's time you take your time and attention away from your significant other. Is cheating? [00:15:22] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:15:23] Speaker A: A man, a. For a man, it is physical. For women, it is emotional. [00:15:28] Speaker B: That is not true. For when it is not all. For all women. That is not true. [00:15:35] Speaker A: My cousin said no sex equals friends. [00:15:37] Speaker C: We just got. Y' all got the same we. [00:15:41] Speaker A: He is right all the time. [00:15:42] Speaker C: Okay. [00:15:43] Speaker A: You said what? [00:15:45] Speaker C: I ain't gotta repeat myself because I didn't hear you. [00:15:47] Speaker A: That's why you got to repeat yourself. I didn't hear you. [00:15:49] Speaker C: Kareem heard me. [00:15:52] Speaker A: John said everybody cheat. But most men are not emotional as women. Women see something they want, like a relationship with a guy, so they'll do anything to destroy it. So that's how men get caught. Matter of fact, let's talk. [00:16:08] Speaker C: I agree with that. [00:16:08] Speaker B: Y'. [00:16:08] Speaker C: All. [00:16:08] Speaker B: Y' all watch the show, you just bored. I don't watch the show. [00:16:12] Speaker A: Y' all suck. But on the shy. There was on this. On the shot. Touche. [00:16:19] Speaker C: Oh, God. [00:16:23] Speaker B: In a good Way joke's on you. [00:16:26] Speaker C: She like, listen. [00:16:28] Speaker B: Joke's on you. Jokes on you. [00:16:32] Speaker C: On you, boy. Butt. Oh Lord. [00:16:42] Speaker B: And there's nothing wrong. [00:16:44] Speaker C: Hold on. [00:16:44] Speaker A: My bad. I told you, I don't know. [00:16:46] Speaker C: We can't do lives no more. I ain't ready. My daddy ain't lost. [00:16:55] Speaker A: So let's talk for those, for those who are just. For those who are just joining us. We're talking about cheating back. You cheated, so I cheated back. Is it right? Is it wrong? Is cheating back really about the other person or is it about repairing your own wounded ego? [00:17:09] Speaker B: It just depends on the person. It really, it really. [00:17:13] Speaker A: Hold on. We got it for the church people in the back who was not paying attention. Is cheating back really about the other person or is it about repairing your own wounded ego? [00:17:24] Speaker C: We not answer that. [00:17:25] Speaker A: No, we didn't, we didn't have that question. [00:17:29] Speaker B: Can I say, can it. It just depends on the person. Some people are just evil people. So I, you can't. I don't know. You have to. How, how is it for you? [00:17:40] Speaker A: I think it's about a person repairing their ego. You're. You're hurt. [00:17:44] Speaker C: Black or white. Just leave me alone. Move along, move along, move along, move along. Sir. [00:17:53] Speaker A: For. I'm just saying like when you really think about it, it's like the only reason I'm getting out of my character or I'm doing something different, right? The only reason I'm doing this because I did not even remotely think of going out there and seeing anybody else. I did not even remotely think about going out there and seeing somebody else, right? But because you did, now my ego is hurt. I'm hurt. I'm trying to rebuild myself. I'm trying to do something for me to make it better for me so that I could feel better about whatever this is. So yeah, I'm going out and doing that. So that's me trying to repair my ego. [00:18:33] Speaker C: Everybody that gets cheated on ain't got no self esteem and is broken that way. Some people can. I mean everybody does. And I'm sorry. [00:18:40] Speaker A: No, I'm not. I'm not. Has nothing to do with low. But it has nothing to do with low self esteem. That has to do with being hurt. Being hurt don't got nothing to do with being having low self esteem. [00:18:48] Speaker B: So if, if your woman cheated on you, would you cheat back on it and get your. Get back. I'm just asking. [00:18:53] Speaker A: Okay, so just, just, just asking a question just for the topic. Just, just for this topic. Because for me, for me, in actuality I'm out. I'm telling you, it ain't even. We ain't even got no discussion. Like, unless I'm married. I will say this. If I'm married, I think that's gonna dissuade and how I tackle that. But one time, I think we would. I would have a conversation, but if it was something that happened more than once, then, yeah, no, I'd have to. [00:19:18] Speaker B: No, but I'm asking you, like, one time, you find out, would you cheat back? That's what I'm asking. [00:19:24] Speaker C: So I got a question. Jerome said, so which one is worse, the person who cheated or the person. [00:19:30] Speaker A: The person who cheated back. [00:19:32] Speaker B: What? [00:19:34] Speaker A: You came out of your character. You can't. You came out of your character. [00:19:39] Speaker B: We both did. [00:19:39] Speaker A: No, no, no, no, no, no. You. [00:19:40] Speaker B: You. [00:19:41] Speaker C: I actually agree. [00:19:42] Speaker A: No, no, no, no. You, you, you. [00:19:44] Speaker C: I'm saying I agree. The person who cheated back as well. [00:19:46] Speaker A: Yes, you came out of your character. Y' all keep talking. [00:19:54] Speaker C: Because. Because the person who originally cheated, for whatever reason that they did cheat, they [00:20:01] Speaker B: also came out their character, too. [00:20:03] Speaker C: But that could have been. For whatever reason. Like I said, whatever selfish reason that they did cheat, they cheated. But then for you to do it, it was strictly based off of your reason of they cheated. So I did it. I mean, we just gonna act like we still alive and say who that was. [00:20:25] Speaker B: I don't know. I feel. What if. What if the person that cheated back, what if they did it because they were. They felt like that's the only way that they could get over it? So are you saying, like, they say [00:20:39] Speaker C: they cheated back because it wasn't about them either? [00:20:41] Speaker B: Yeah. Like, what if I be like, you did this to me. So said, I want you to hurt the same way you hurt me. Like. Like, I'm not. Like, are we just excusing the first person that did it? Just. I mean, I don't. [00:20:57] Speaker C: Hush, Br. [00:20:58] Speaker B: I'm trying to fathom that. Like, you. You get a. So you cheated, so I'm just supposed to sit there and cry? And, I mean, we stated that there's always. [00:21:06] Speaker C: There's always gonna be right and a wrong. That's going to be your reasoning, their reason, or whatever. But we're saying ultimately who's right and who's wrong. If you had to choose one or the other, is it going to be the person who originally cheated or the person who cheated back? [00:21:22] Speaker B: I don't know. I feel like it's the person that originally cheat. Like, you started it, right? I mean, I don't know. I Just feel like you start. Like, if you wouldn't have done it, then I would have never done it. [00:21:33] Speaker C: Black Hawaii says there are any reasons to justify someone cheating. I don't think it is. I honestly don't think there's a reason to justify cheating. But there's always going to be somebody that says, hey, well, I only did [00:21:48] Speaker B: this because you did it because you were. [00:21:50] Speaker C: I was lacking. [00:21:51] Speaker B: You weren't doing it at home. Yeah, you were doing this at home. And so. [00:21:55] Speaker C: Right. [00:21:55] Speaker B: This is. That's the reason I did it, which is that needs to be a conversation. Like, not cheating. Don't say you wouldn't give me sex at home or you wouldn't give me head, so I found somebody that could do it. [00:22:10] Speaker C: Brandon said, both are wrong, but a person cheated back. Lord, they're standing to get back. [00:22:21] Speaker A: Totally agree with what? The person that cheated back wrong. [00:22:27] Speaker C: That ain't what I just said. [00:22:28] Speaker A: What did you just say? [00:22:31] Speaker C: I don't know. Okay, I do know. But you didn't know, so you just jumped in on the end. [00:22:35] Speaker A: Yeah, I did. [00:22:37] Speaker C: Wrong. The person that cheated is wrong. [00:22:40] Speaker A: The person that cheated is more wrong than the person that cheated back. [00:22:42] Speaker C: The person that just jumped in the conversation. [00:22:46] Speaker B: I mean, there may be people that agree or people that disagree, but I feel like you started the whole thing. Like, I feel like the person that cheats back on you. [00:22:58] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:22:58] Speaker B: Then, like, you. You started it. Like, we was cool until you did what you did. [00:23:03] Speaker C: Right. [00:23:04] Speaker B: So, like, you get a pass or just because you be like, oh, it's not. [00:23:07] Speaker A: It's not that. You mean it's not that you. It's not that you get a pass. [00:23:10] Speaker C: I'm Pandora's box. [00:23:11] Speaker B: So therefore, I'm sorry, you don't get. No, [00:23:17] Speaker C: you drunk my juice. [00:23:19] Speaker A: I did not you. [00:23:20] Speaker C: I don't. I. [00:23:20] Speaker A: We don't even drinking the same juice. When did I ever get over there to get your Jews? [00:23:25] Speaker C: I don't know. [00:23:28] Speaker A: Now it's time for everybody's favorite segment. [00:23:30] Speaker B: Oh, God, not we lie. I always am like the villain in this. [00:23:34] Speaker A: What do you mean you feel like the villain? [00:23:38] Speaker B: Wait till these cameras go off. I want to cuss so bad. [00:23:43] Speaker A: My boy Mo Black said. Hold on. I'm sorry, Dron. Sometimes us men get bored sleeping with the same woman. Even in marriage. [00:23:53] Speaker C: Some dress up. That's how we got lace fronts and braids and stuff. You better switch her up, paint her white. [00:23:58] Speaker B: It's a lot of different wigs, caramel. You can get like something that's insane. [00:24:04] Speaker C: You know what that's what I'm saying. [00:24:06] Speaker A: Let's get into this. Either or. Either or. First question. Would you rather be with someone who argues about everything or someone who says, do whatever you want and actually mean it? [00:24:18] Speaker C: I like a little chaos. I like a little. We gonna argue, baby, what you said. [00:24:27] Speaker B: Yeah. I. I can't. [00:24:28] Speaker C: Y'. All. I'm gonna tell y' all what's funny, right?

I can't do the argument. I can't. [00:24:51] Speaker C: No. I like. [00:24:52] Speaker B: I already got gray hairs. [00:24:54] Speaker C: I got gray hair, too, but I'm gonna give him a couple of them. [00:24:57] Speaker B: Yeah, I'm good on that. [00:24:59] Speaker A: I would rather. Yeah. I need somebody telling me, do whatever you want. [00:25:03] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:25:04] Speaker A: Actually mean it. Do whatever. [00:25:05] Speaker B: Right? And mean it. Mean what you say. [00:25:08] Speaker C: You say, I need some pushback. Not literal. [00:25:12] Speaker A: No, no, no. But it's saying, don't hit me. [00:25:13] Speaker C: No. [00:25:14] Speaker A: Argue about everything. Argue about everything or [00:25:21] Speaker B: you're going to the grocery store. Why you going to the store? We need. We don't need doordash. Like, no, I can't do it because [00:25:30] Speaker C: that other person don't give a damn. See, Jerome understands me. [00:25:33] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:25:34] Speaker B: Stop playing me. [00:25:35] Speaker A: Jerome said, I'd rather have someone that arguing because the other person don't give a damn. [00:25:40] Speaker C: Argue all the time. I don't like him like that, though. But, [00:25:44] Speaker B: yeah. No, next question. [00:25:47] Speaker A: Next one.

Okay. My. One of. One of my best friends is my ex. [00:29:15] Speaker B: So that's what you're going with? [00:29:17] Speaker A: Yeah, yeah. Keep in mind, you single, One of. I've been in relationships and she's still been one of my best friends. [00:29:23] Speaker C: And you single. [00:29:24] Speaker A: And she's still one of my best friends. [00:29:26] Speaker C: And you single. Now [00:29:29] Speaker B: I have one ex that's a friend. He's not my best friend. [00:29:35] Speaker A: Talking about best friends, people that like. [00:29:37] Speaker B: No, he not my best friend. [00:29:38] Speaker C: You need a relationship for if your ex is your best friend. [00:29:41] Speaker A: What do you mean, what you need? [00:29:42] Speaker C: Why not be in a relationship with them if they. Your best friend? [00:29:45] Speaker A: We're not in a relationship. [00:29:46] Speaker C: Why you need a relationship if your ex is your best friend? Get back with your best friend. [00:29:51] Speaker A: No, that's not. There's a reason why she's an ex. [00:29:53] Speaker C: Then why you need a best friend? [00:29:55] Speaker A: What are you talking about? Like, you don't even make sense right now. [00:30:00] Speaker B: If y' all broke up and you are not together, why do you still need this person around? [00:30:05] Speaker A: It's not a. It's not a need. It's not a connection that we have in the friendship realm. We were friends. We were. We were. [00:30:12] Speaker C: Should be your best friend. What you were. [00:30:15] Speaker A: We were really good. We were really good best friends before we got into the relationship and then we got in a relationship. [00:30:20] Speaker C: So. What are you talking about, get in a relationship? Shouldn't that person be your best friend? [00:30:25] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:30:25] Speaker A: And. And she. And when we get to that point of me feeling that way, yes, she will be my best friend. [00:30:30] Speaker C: Then what you going to do next? [00:30:31] Speaker B: So then your ex won't be your best friend. [00:30:33] Speaker A: Did you. Did you. Did you listen to what you going to do next? Did you listen to the terminology? See, this is where. This is where I know women don't listen. [00:30:39] Speaker C: What you going to do? [00:30:40] Speaker A: What I said was if you ask the question. Women don't listen. What I said was. I said that she's one of. She's one of my best friends. [00:30:50] Speaker B: Okay? [00:30:51] Speaker A: That's what I said. [00:30:52] Speaker C: So the rest of your ex is your best friends. [00:30:54] Speaker A: So you said what? The rest of your ex. [00:30:56] Speaker B: I heard that. [00:30:56] Speaker A: No, no. [00:30:58] Speaker C: What you going to do with the ex? [00:30:59] Speaker B: I heard that part. [00:31:00] Speaker A: She'll still be one of my best friends. She gets. She's been introduced to multiple. She's been interested. She's hung out with my ex wife. [00:31:08] Speaker C: That's right. [00:31:08] Speaker B: When you. [00:31:09] Speaker C: Okay, you gonna get broke up right there. When you introduce me and say, oh, yeah, she my ex. Oh, I'm your ex. [00:31:14] Speaker B: But we best. [00:31:14] Speaker A: All right, so we gotta. We got a letter based on the topic. My husband cheated on me with the woman from his job. See, Can I get through the letter? [00:31:27] Speaker B: I'm sorry. [00:31:27] Speaker C: That's the reason why. Literally. [00:31:29] Speaker A: Can I get through the letter? [00:31:31] Speaker B: I'm sorry. Go ahead. [00:31:32] Speaker A: Jesus Christ. I'm in two Words. [00:31:36] Speaker B: Cause it's about to piss me off. Just from the first sentence. [00:31:38] Speaker A: Oh, my God. My husband cheated on me with a woman from his job. I found out after months of lying. I was devastated. Six months later, I started talking to a man at my job and eventually slept with him. My husband found out and he says we're even. But he's demanding that I prove I'm committed to the marriage. I feel like he has no right to judge me because he started this. Who's wrong? You are, ma'. [00:32:04] Speaker C: Am. [00:32:04] Speaker A: You are completely and utterly wrong, ma'. Am. You are wrong. And I hope he leaves you right where you stand. [00:32:15] Speaker C: That was harsh. [00:32:16] Speaker B: No, I'm being honest and aggressive. [00:32:18] Speaker A: I'm. Be honest. I hope he leaves you. I hope he leaves you. You deserve to be left. [00:32:24] Speaker C: Dang. So she ain't gonna write you no more, huh? [00:32:29] Speaker B: Her husband. She didn't deserve to leave her husband. [00:32:31] Speaker A: She chose not to. [00:32:33] Speaker B: That doesn't. Just because you chose that doesn't mean she didn't. [00:32:36] Speaker A: She. She chose to stay and. And take part in this buffoonery. [00:32:41] Speaker B: So you're not. [00:32:42] Speaker C: So. [00:32:42] Speaker B: So I feel like you're more upset with her than you are him. [00:32:45] Speaker A: 100. [00:32:46] Speaker B: That's why. [00:32:47] Speaker C: Because she decided to retaliate instead of just leaving him. [00:32:52] Speaker A: What do they say? It's not. The person who does something first is the person who retaliates, who gets the harshest punishment. [00:32:58] Speaker B: The crap. [00:33:00] Speaker A: And you punch them back. [00:33:01] Speaker B: Guess what we're saying? So you. When you send your kids to school, what you always say? If somebody hit you, hit them back. [00:33:07] Speaker A: And nine times out of 10, the kid who hits back is the one who gets in trouble. [00:33:12] Speaker B: Okay, so what do you mean? [00:33:14] Speaker A: So [00:33:16] Speaker C: what about when somebody. If I was to slap you right now, your reflexes was to slap me back. Most people in this society would say, that man's wrong for hitting that woman. Nobody thinks about the fact that it's a natural reaction to hit somebody back. [00:33:29] Speaker A: But I wouldn't hit a woman. So it don't matter. [00:33:31] Speaker C: But hear me. Hear me out. [00:33:33] Speaker A: I'm listening to it. [00:33:33] Speaker C: But being serious. That a lot of people don't want to take accountability for the fact that sometimes it's a natural reaction to just swing back, especially when somebody stun you. Let's be real about that. Just take the equation differently from just cheating. That sometimes that's a natural reaction for some people. That when you hurt me, I. I hurt you back. If you hit me, I hit you back. And then when you actually think about it, like I really don't want to lose my husband. I really don't want my kids to grow up without a father. I really don't want to break up my home. And then you start thinking about, you know what, maybe we can work this out. Maybe we can stick and stay. I was wrong. So now I'm going to go to my husband, I'm going to go to my wife and say, hey, you know what? I was wrong. I shouldn't have cheated. I know you cheated first, but this is what I want to do. Save our marriage. We both messed up now. Yeah, a lot of people gonna say the person who cheated second was wrong because they went and retaliated. But the truth of the matter, it is you both did wrong. And sometimes it is a natural reaction to say, you hit me first, so I hit you back. [00:34:39] Speaker A: I get what you're saying, and I'm not. I'm. I am not debating the validity of the people who believe that this is the actions that they need to take because they are hurt and this is the way they're dealing with their hurt. I'm saying that, and I'm gonna talk about it in my final thought in about three minutes. People make a. When you cheat, you make a conscious decision. Correct. To hurt somebody. Because eventually you know you're gonna hurt somebody. Whether it's the person you're cheating with because you're not going to leave your main to go with them, or it's the person that you cheated on who's going to eventually find out. Because what happens in the dark eventually comes to light. At the end of the day. Yeah, I made a choice to hurt somebody. But then you made a conscious decision because you were hurt. This is not the person you are. You are not innately this type of person. This is not. You went outside of your character. Apparently, this is who I am. Apparently this is a part of me that I didn't. That I didn't know was there or whatever, and I made a mistake. Now, you chose to stay. If you chose to stay, then you stay and you don't do nothing. [00:35:52] Speaker B: Who wrote that rule? [00:35:53] Speaker A: Who wrote what rule? Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Okay, Right. Okay. No, no, no. Let me say something. Let me ask you this. So if you cheat now, I'm supposed to stay? [00:36:08] Speaker B: You supposed to do whatever you feel is best for yourself? [00:36:10] Speaker C: Yes. [00:36:11] Speaker B: I'm out. Okay, then leave. [00:36:13] Speaker C: That's doing something. [00:36:14] Speaker A: Okay. But if I was. As long as we in agreeing that I got the right to be out, then that's fine. [00:36:22] Speaker C: Oh, but if you stay, you stay and do nothing. [00:36:24] Speaker B: But yeah, insane to say. [00:36:26] Speaker A: How is that insane to say? If you stay. [00:36:30] Speaker C: Anybody that believe that you can say saying, but if you. [00:36:33] Speaker B: I cheated, [00:36:40] Speaker C: Nothing means nothing. Don't do nothing. [00:36:43] Speaker A: Don't cheat. [00:36:44] Speaker C: And that is not possible for you to determine how a person is to react. [00:36:48] Speaker A: Don't cheat back, leave. [00:36:49] Speaker C: You don't get to determine how. [00:36:52] Speaker A: Don't cheat back, leave. [00:36:53] Speaker C: How you don't get to determine how a person you. [00:36:57] Speaker A: I don't. I don't. But what I'm telling you is then back leave. [00:37:00] Speaker C: Choose to leave. Your reaction is just that action you left. That's action you left. [00:37:05] Speaker A: Exactly. [00:37:06] Speaker C: Yours is a reaction I still can react. [00:37:09] Speaker A: But yours a reaction. [00:37:11] Speaker C: My reaction is still. If I stay, you can't tell me how to react to my hurt. [00:37:16] Speaker B: Absolutely. [00:37:17] Speaker A: I'm not telling you how to react to your hurt. I'm telling you how I'm react to you doing what you. [00:37:20] Speaker C: You're saying that if a person chooses to stay. [00:37:22] Speaker B: If a person stays and do love I do do. If a person say you stay and do nothing. [00:37:30] Speaker A: What I mean by do nothing is you don't cheat back. [00:37:32] Speaker C: No. Do nothing means nothing. [00:37:34] Speaker A: No. Okay, well then let me. Well then let me. Well then let me rephrase because I'm not trying. I'm not trying to justify anything because I'm speaking. No, I'm speaking. [00:37:46] Speaker C: This is what happened when a man put his foot in his mouth. [00:37:48] Speaker A: No, it's not. No, it's not. [00:37:49] Speaker C: Because. [00:37:50] Speaker A: No, we're talking about. We're talking about the topic. What? I mean, cuz we have the topic of cheating back. I'm saying don't do nothing in a sense of cheating back. [00:37:57] Speaker C: Thank you. For better or worse, Jeff, do's part. Period. Period. If you got in it, you stay in it. No matter who cheated first, last, second, third, or if you sold. [00:38:08] Speaker A: No, no, no, stay in it. Listen, listen. No, no, no, no. Wait, hold on, hold on. I take it like this in a marriage, okay? If you cheat. If. If you cheated on me. [00:38:20] Speaker C: You talking about you. [00:38:22] Speaker A: No, no, no, no. Wait, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. [00:38:24] Speaker C: Doing some creepy stuff out there. [00:38:25] Speaker A: No, no, no. They, they. It's. We're on a live. I can't edit this out. I'm sorry, we gotta go over live etiquette. [00:38:36] Speaker C: This is my first one. [00:38:37] Speaker A: Jesus Christ. If you. If you cheat on me, if, If. If my wife ch. It's up to me to deal with that hurt in a way that does not in turn retaliate on her. Right? Hold on. Because I said earlier in the show, if I'm in a relationship, I'm out. If I'm in a marriage, if we're married, then, yeah, I'm gonna do what I can to work on whatever we can. If I'm gonna forgive you, then there is no retaliation. There is no this other stuff that needs to happen. I'm forgiving you. So that means that. And I wanna stay and I wanna work it out. You hurt me, I might cuss, I might carry on. Whatever. I'm never gonna put on you or whatever. I'm not going to go and cheat back because at the end of the day, I know that I want my marriage. Me cheating back is me. Is me jeopardizing my marriage. Because if I go cheat back now, who's to say she ain't going to go back and do what she does? Or who's to say? Whatever. I can only control my actions. And if I am a person of good character who does not believe in cheating, then it doesn't matter if she cheated. It does not matter. I want my marriage. I know that there's some things we need to work on. I need to communicate with her and figure out what that is, because I need to deal with it. And me going off and cheating back is me going outside of my character and changing who I am as a person. And that's what I'm saying. So if she. And this is what I'm saying, if she decides to do that, then I did not know her the way I think I knew her. Because she's making a decision. She could come and talk to me. She could be hurt. She could cuss me out. She could not trust me. She can go through all these different changes that she needs to go through. I'm not saying that that's not what she has to do. But cheating back should not be the. The action that she takes. Because now you don't give a. You don't care. And since you don't care, I don't need to be somewhere where the person I'm with is so immature to deal with their hurt and their feelings that they. It is immature because that is an immature reaction. Because you hit me, I'm gonna hit you back. That's what you tell a kid in the fifth grade, in the fourth grade, in the third grade, so they don't get picked on. [00:40:46] Speaker B: Okay, so does the person that initiate the cheating, do they not have a character flaw as well? I'm asking. [00:40:54] Speaker A: I'M not saying that's the thing. I do. I recognize that. Okay, I recognize that. But what did I say? What did I say? I said we need to go to counseling. We need to work this through. We need to communicate. I need to figure out what the issue is so we could fix the issue that you felt you had to go find in somebody else because we're married now. Relationship. I could get another one tomorrow and losing absolutely no sleep. But if we're in a marriage, this is death do us part. For better or worse. All the stuff that they say, I'm in control of my actions. So if I cheat back, I am 100% wrong. I have to process my hurt differently. I have to find a different way to process my hurt different. That's it. All right. [00:41:47] Speaker B: I still think both people are wrong, but go ahead. [00:41:50] Speaker A: I guess I should leave on. That's be my final thought. But anyway, I wrote out my final thought. So here's my final thought. Here's the part nobody wants to hear. They cheated because they. Jesus Christ. It would. It would do that right when it goes off my notes. Here's the part nobody wants to hear. They cheated because they had made a choice. And if you cheat back, you're making another choice. You don't get your dignity back by giving someone else the opportunity to take yours. And being hurt doesn't mean you have to become hurtful. If you want revenge, ask yourself, what are you really trying to accomplish? Do you want them to hurt? Do you want them to understand? Do you want validation? Or do you want the relationship to survive? Because those are four completely different goals. And sometimes the most powerful response to betrayal isn't cheating back. It's deciding that somebody else's bad decision isn't going to dictate who you become at the end of the day. Don't let nobody's bad decision dictate who you become. Hey, y'. [00:42:43] Speaker C: All. [00:42:43] Speaker A: At the end of the day, man, I know some of y' all got on late. We apologize. Make sure you tap in next week. [00:42:50] Speaker C: Yes, yes, tomorrow.
