A single-speaker YouTube monologue (Anwar White) responding to a viewer question about living with a man for over five years without a ring. The speaker advises strongly against cohabiting without engagement, recommends being engaged within two years, uses a provocative metaphor equating not having a ring to being "naked," and warns that a partner will "play" someone who waits too long. The tone is direct, admonitory, and colloquial.

Okay.
Missy said, what's your take on living with a man for over five years and no ring? I would never live with a man without being engaged. Half of my clients move in before engagement. Half of my clients move in after engagement. You should never be with a man if you're not engaged with him within two years.
You will get played. You're getting played. And that's no shade. Girl, I want you to think of having no ring aside. Girl, I want you to think of having no ring as being naked. If you're with a man and you don't have a ring, it's you're like that girl that was with Kanye and he pranced her around naked everywhere. That's how you look right now and that's no shade. I'm just letting you know. So, Missy.
We're not living that way anymore.
Okay? Don't be that girl.
Don't be that girl. Okay. Someone said.
