Can I give y'all some quick advice? Yeah. Mm-hmm. This is very simple. I could wrap this up in the first 5 minutes. I think we all could do this, right? Y'all are 24 years old. You two are young. You are in a relationship as kids in high school and fell in love. And instead of saying, now it's time to break up like most relationships do and say, let's go figure out our lives and figure out who we are apart, you all decided to stay together. And you haven't learned how to manage your emotions. You haven't learned how to manage what your experiences are. You haven't learned how to manage any of that. So of course, the first time you get triggered, you're gonna do something like you said, I text other people to get him back. See, that's young behavior. Young behavior and unhealed behavior says, to get you back, I'm gonna text somebody else. The real get back is leaving his ass. As a man, the real get back is saying, let me go be healthy over here. Let me show you how happy I am over here. Let me go show you how healed and beautiful my life is without you. That's the real get back. Let me tell you something, there is nothing worse for somebody who has done wrong to see the person that they were dating doing good.
