You said when he was, he's your VIP, and when you first got together, you wanted to prove to Rodney that he was wrong about all the women, that there could be a woman that treated him great, that would treat him with respect, that would show him what it's like. You said that's what you wanted to prove to him. I gotta be honest with you. You didn't act this way to prove it to him. You were doing that to prove it to yourself. I know. And so you hoped Do you think that by modeling to him, look, I'm gonna be with you, I'm gonna be with you, that listen— He'll do the same. That he'll do the same.
