Because when I get on the phone with somebody and I'm in the car with somebody, or they're in the car with me, and I, my mom calls and I'll be like, hey, mom, Michael's in the car. Or such and such is in the car to let her know that if she's going to say anything that she doesn't want him to hear, he's in the car or she's in the car. Why don't people do that?
And that's the key to, like, oh, yeah. We could discuss something in detail or just leave it alone. You know what I'm saying? So I'm not saying you got to do that, but my brothers, we got a code that we use. All right, talk to you later. Bye

Hey, lady five. I feel you. I definitely will ask people. I'm like, am I on Bluetooth or. You got me in your ear, right? So I know how to tailor my conversation. And then some people, like you said, they don't tell you to the last minute. Like, one of my homegirls called me. We were texting. We were actually texting in a group. And then she called me because she wanted to explain something

That is a wonderful idea. That's a wonderful idea right there, and I think I'm gonna implement that among my family. Sorry about that. That was my husband on the riding mower. Anyway, that sounds like a plan. I cannot wait to come up with some type of code that my family and I can share to be like, okay, we can talk about this, or, like you say, just leave it alone. Wow, that's. That's cute

But I can understand your frustration with those kind of situations. It's uncomfortable and embarrassing, and you want to have privacy. So I totally understand it, and I can relate to it to a certain point. So I wanted to share that with you. Thank you so much. Have a great day. Talk later. Peace

You tickled me. You was like, no, no, we can't talk in front of you. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I'm talking about. No, we cannot talk in front of you, mom. You know, that's why I was like, okay, let's use this code that too strong was talking about. Because I'm like, look, let me know

You know, people should give a warning as to who's in the car and watch what you gotta say, because I'm telling you, it's an influence on other people. Not just that, but you don't want to say something about somebody and they're in the car, and now they're offended. They don't even know the context of why you're saying it, more than likely. But, yeah, I get it

I love the idea of codes, because that way nobody gets offended. But listen, the only one that would have worked with for me would have been my sister. We had our code. We would have been good. Some of these other people, like my ex boyfriend, he was just so. He just loved to talk. And even when I'm like, hey, I'm in the car, you on Bluetooth, right? I could do all that

I'm the kind of person that if you're calling me and I am in the car with somebody and I know that they don't need to hear our conversation, I just won't answer. I just won't answer. Just text me if you need to talk to me. If you're like, Tanya, you know, I need to talk to you when you get a moment or something. And that way I know that I need to make time to talk to you

Makes me think about it, what it does. Like, what do you do? Like, really, like, do you limit your friends, or do you just call very few people your true friends, no matter how many associates you have? Hmm

@LadyFi · 0:44
Hey, Tanya, that is a wonderful idea. I mean, it really is. Because if you don't answer the phone, there's no confrontation, there's no trouble, there's no missing anything, there's no hurt feelings, nothing like that. And I love how you said that you can recognize by the friend what type of conversation it's about to be. And that's a good point because usually I can recognize if I

Generally, that means you're talking about somebody else and you just don't want them to know. And then where can we be our authentic selves if we can't be our authentic selves around friends? And I absolutely hate when somebody takes a phone call and then they were like, let me call you back. Especially, you know, the conversation. You can tell it's getting deep. And then they're like, let me call you back

But because of her time difference and how far we are, I just be like, let me answer and give her a trigger warning. Or, you know, let me warn everybody in the car real quick because immediately when I see her name come up, well, we gonna have a good time on the phone, but it's not gonna be for everyone's ears, that's for sure

But it's happened before, so, yeah, I understand that. And like I said, it's just really. It's common sense. You know, it's common sense. And if somebody doesn't have that common sense, then there's something really wrong with them. And you probably should preface every conversation you're having that's going to be even semi private with, hey, can you talk? Because that's how I always do it when I'm talking to somebody
