Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hey, they're beautiful people. This is miss Unapologetic coming at
you with the Keeping It Real Now podcasts. Massive thanks
to all our listeners for tuning in. It's hard to believe,
but we are celebrating our twentieth episode today. Thank you
for hanging in there with me through all the ups
and downs, the rants, and the real talk. So. I know.

(00:26):
I had promised some juicy Hollywood scandals this week, but
that's going to have to marinate a little longer. Something
far more pressing has been scratching at my brain like
a mosquito bite. Today's hot topic is a real talk
session about women downgrading themselves in relationships. And no I'm
not just talking about dating. This is a whole life

(00:47):
lesson we're diving into today. I've got some hot tips
coming your way to help you steer clear of crashing
and burning in the relationship department. So stick around because
you won't want to miss this now. The reason I
decided to jump on this topic is that a lot
of married women were Hella mad when I did a

(01:07):
movie about a side chick and a maintenance man. Listen,
people cheat for all kinds of reasons. Some are selfish,
some are clueless, and some just saw a pizza delivery
guy and thought he was hot. But here's the thing,
don't blame the side piece. The real villain is the
one who cheated. We'll save that tea for another episode
because we're just getting started, all right, fam, Let's jump

(01:29):
right into our hot tips for keeping your relationships on
the up and up, starting with taking time to heal
after a breakup. Trust me on this. You do not
want to be dragging emotional baggage into a new relationship.
You wouldn't want to carry around an old purse you're
hoping will come back in style. Right, Well, emotional baggage

(01:49):
is the same, and it does nothing but weigh you down.
So give yourself some time to heal. You're not on
a timeline here. Next up, let's talk about avoiding destructive
acts when you're in a relationship. I know it might
feel good in the moment to key his car, break
his windows, or bleach his clothes, but what does that solve?
Nothing except giving you a major headache, a potential court date,

(02:14):
and a free pass to the drama district. And guys,
if you think sleeping with her sister or best friend
is a solid revenge plan. Think again. Karma's a real
one and she knows exactly where you live. Understanding your
self worth is crucial. Be your own private eye and relationships.

(02:35):
If your girl gives you the stink eye because you
took her to fast food instead of a five star restaurant,
that's a red flag waving harder than a parade banner.
Pay attention to those little signs because they might be
telling you more than you think. Now, this one's a
game changer. Ask the tough questions while you're dating. Does

(02:57):
your potential partner have a job, Do they have kids?
More importantly, do they take care of them? And let's
be real, are you splitting the bill or are you
just the entertainment for the night. Knowing where they stand
on these issues can save you a ton of heartache
later on. Finally, know what you want in a partner.

(03:20):
There's a difference between the person you want and the
person you think you need. You might not end up
with the supermodel with the hourglass figure or the guy
with rock hard abs, but sometimes the best match is
the one who's been staring at you all along. Don't
get too caught up in physical attraction. Remember inner beauty

(03:41):
counts for a lot too. Finding someone who makes you
want to sip hot cocoa on a cold winter night
rather than binging reality TV and hating the world. That's
the real deal. So let's focus on what truly matters
and dodge unnecessary heartbreak like a proboxer in training. Those
are your hot tips for today. Folks. Stay tuned because

(04:04):
there's more to come and you definitely don't want to
miss it. All right, let's wrap this up with some
final thoughts. One of the biggest takeaways from today's episode
is the importance of being honest with your significant other.
Honesty is the cornerstone of any healthy relationship and it's
what keeps the bond strong and the drama at bay.
And remember, folks, winter is coming, it's cuffing season, and

(04:27):
the freaks definitely come out at night. This is the
time of year when everyone's looking for that special someone
to keep them warm while you're out there searching. Keep
it classy, and remember to treat others the way you
want to be treated. That's all I've got for you today.
