One time was all that fits for her to say, now I'm done. And so as much as I could be like, wow, give me a chance. Give me some grace. I actually learned from these people, because why do I allow people to do things to me two times, three times, four times, ten times before I wake up and say, now I'm pulling the plug on this whole show here. And so that's what I'm doing

You respect it for its value and you consider it precious. So from the very beginning, you treat it right. That's the revelation I got. Why am I letting people crash me up, dent me, and scratch my bumper and flatten my tires? Why am I letting them do that many times before they really say, okay, this time, Ange, when I take you for a drive, I'm going to be careful with you

But I know that there are instances where you have to continually forgive people, especially when it comes to your spouse, your children, your family. These people are always going to be a part of your life. And so you do have to continually forgive. But I should not put someone in a position where they feel like they have to constantly forgive me

And it didn't help that for me, getting saved at a young age where the scripture tells us to take up our cross and follow him and exalt others higher than yourself because I was already coming from a broken place. Those scriptures just really justified my brokenness, to be honest, and that's not what they're for. But again, me coming from a broken place, it justified letting everybody walk all over me because one day in the great buy and buy, there's some reward

And when I was talking to somebody earlier, because for me, I have to talk things out sometimes, and so it just helps me. And so for me, I was talking to this person and I was talking to a different person, and I was saying, I think the reason why I've given them so much grace is because God has given me so much grace. Even in the times where I turned my back on God, God still gave me grace and he still allowed me to come

And yet the idea that every time you open his mouth, it was coming from God, I'm like, no, brother. You have your own mouth with your own brain, your own heart, your own life experiences. You are not that special that every time you open your mouth, it's holy spirit speaking through you. You're delusional. But even with that, he kind of sent sort of an apologetic text, and I was like, okay, cool

Because if I'm always not at peace, then what does that say about the God that. And so, you know, I have to look at it that way. I have to look at. Okay, andrea, typically around people, you are laughing, joking, having fun, because my friend was like, we was having so much fun that weekend. I'm like, yeah, we did. We had a ball, you know, what I mean. I said, but things happen

Hello, girl, I have such thoughts on what you said. So let me explain something. Let me know. Let me explore something. Explain is not the right word. Let me explore something. See, I'm always confused at these people who go out, get cell phones, have 1215 $2,000 cell phones, but they don't want nobody to call them. It was the same way when we had house phones. My number is private. Well, let me tell you something

But when it comes to a friendship, it shouldn't be where you have to walk on eggs coles. Or you can't be yourself. You can't laugh, joke over having you because you're always worried about someone taking us the wrong way or judging you. And so that's a very good indication this is not someone you need to be around, right? Definitely. Can you be yourself? And that's freeing. And we wear so many masks

Well, this guy liked to fight. It's pretty clear. And so if I see that and I still move forward seeing that he liked to fight, and most likely a lot of these things were domestic. He's beaten on women. Then run from him, Angela. Run and don't look back. And so, yeah, it's not about offering grades, because we'll do, you know, that was then. This is no to know. That's foolish, as you said

Miss Ange, this is Mama Minnie. For the last time, girl, you gonna be okay. So, you're not one of those girls that is hanging in, trying to wait? Well, he might be doing this, but he said you got good sense. Just keep walking in your truth, you'll be fine. I see it, I know it. I feel it. Have a good one. Bye

I feel like that's very extreme because you gave her number and you weren't even trying to be harmful. Obviously, that's something that she didn't like. But to cut you off like that, because you gave a number and you literally said, okay, you won't do it again. You didn't do anything shady to her, you know what I mean? Like, you didn't put her any harm's way

And so I can see her point of view, like, okay, I opened up to my cousin. I've been hanging out with her, and look what she did. I didn't think it was that bad. But I also, listen, girl, if I hurt your feelings, I messed up. I'm sorry. So I can see it from her point of view, kind of being like, see, I opened up, I trusted her. Look what happened, right?
