A brother wrote in after a three-year long-distance rollercoaster where tough talks turned into silence and her parents turned hostile. He prayed for an approval and called it a sign while every other sign said no. We laugh, we side-eye, and we keep it loving but honest. 😂🙏🏾
We talk:
🙅🏾♂️ Stop over-spiritualizing dating. God is not a vending machine or a green light on command.
🚫🏠 Racism in your own home is a hard no. You cannot change being Black and you shouldn’t try to survive where you aren’t respected.
🤐 Silence is not depth. Stonewalling and hiding are patterns, not personality quirks.
🎆 Chemistry is fireworks. 🧯 Compatibility is fire safety. Choose the relationship that chooses you back.
🧹 Unfollow, block, and heal. Get a real therapist and find mentors 10 to 15 years ahead in the season you want, where mutual respect is obvious.
Ever turned a red flag into a “sign” and had to course-correct later? Tell us how you knew. Episode 259 is live.
