worse than any of them bitches.

There's a couple of them.

(00:26):
God, we could all walk in aperfect life of Cindy.
I, I, Mark says Cindy will tellyou when you're in pain.
When you're not in pain, she'lltell you.
I just feel like, um, you'reperfect.
Well, I wouldn't say I'mperfect, but I really haven't
lost any friendships.
I outgrown one and then cut offthe other, but.

(00:48):
I know what happened with therest.
They tolerate your ass.
Yes.
They just don't want to tellyou.
Yes.
They smile and wave.
Smile and wave.
Right.
That's what I think.
Well, fuck'em.
Deal with me.
They gone.
Yeah, I True.
I think, I think, yeah.
I think I'm fine.
I have, I have no input on this.

(01:12):
Can you see the camera'sshaking?
Sorry.
Okay.
That's'cause she found it sofunny.
Well, that's if you are watchingand if you're listening, you
could hear the pounding fromthis bitch.
Yeah.
Well, like I said, in otherepisodes, in our whole adult
life, you don't piss off a niceone.
I'm many people you fake likeyou're the nice one.

(01:33):
That's true.
That is true.
Oh, I piss off a lot of people.
But do they not?
Do they just hold it in?
Or, or it don't really piss'emout.
I don't know.
I have a lot of, a lot when I,I'm gonna be honest with you, I
stayed up all night thinkingabout this shit, like, I mean,
not all night.
That's a little dramatic, but I,I mean, I was woke up in the

(01:55):
middle of the night thinkingwhat friendships really have I
lost or relationships have Ilost because I was too honest?
I have lost a few.
Yeah, I know I've won.
I know I won for sure.
That bitch got your ass.
Listen, I'm gonna be honest andtruthful to all my friends and

(02:21):
if the friend at that time isdoing shit that she shouldn't be
doing and lying, then I'm gonnabe honest and I'm gonna tell the
other friend that that's just'cause I don't like, I call
bullshit.
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
Bullshit.
Ahh bullshit.
You know what I mean?
So I'm glad you life.
You're glad I told that friendthat.

(02:44):
Mm-hmm.
You know, that that happened toher, that she was lied to.
Yeah.
Right.
Well, yeah.
Yeah.
'cause that's how you should be.
Like if you, it's weird.
That's awkward to me.
Yeah.
Well what's more awkward is whenthey continue, the person who's
in the wrong continuously blamesyou for being honest about it.
Oh, probably to this day, justdon't know.

(03:05):
'cause you ran them off.
I'm sure.
Ghosted.
I did Ghost somebody.
See, I really truly did.
You're so mean, bitch.
Yeah.
I don't care though.
I mean, this is the thing forme, I think that.
There's a certain degree, like Isaid in the last episode, when

(03:29):
honesty is either maliciousmm-hmm.
Or a true intention to protectsomebody.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like if I'm being honest withyou about a situation, and I'm
telling you this.
To help you to, to guard you orto, you know what I mean?
Yeah.
No, I'm not doing it to tell youto hurt you and watch you cry.

(03:50):
No, you do it to me every day.
Your daughter pointed out thatyou're mean to me.
It's fine.
You wanna be honest?
You want me to be honest.
This is why we're here'cause ofthis bitch.
Well, that's always saying, doyou want me to be honest when I
ask a question?
'cause I'm petty as hell, right?
And I want, help me not, notfreak out, help you.
And you're like, well, you wannabe honest.

(04:12):
Okay, but do you want me to behonest or do you want me just to
listen?
Yes, I do.
No, I do.
I really do.
Okay.
I can't listen, I'm, I mean,y'all probably figured out I
talk overtop of Cindy nonstop.

(04:34):
degree.
Have you ever had anybody likeghost you like Yeah.
Okay.
You did say your friend, yourfamily.
You've had a family member ghostyou?

Okay.
But are they ghosting youbecause of your big mouth?

(04:58):
Type thing.
Nope.
Friendships.
Some are hard, some aren't.
Just like relationships withyour husband, boyfriend,
girlfriend, whatever it is.
Yeah.
It's hard for you and I think tocompare, because we've been
together with our, our husband.
Mm-hmm.
Husbands.
'cause we're not the MormonsHousewives.

(05:18):

Yeah.
I try to think that Mark hasn'tbeen with anybody but me.
I know.
I love that in you.
That's why for me, ourfriendship has survived because
you and I would never crossthose lines.

(06:20):
You're a whore if you do, notyou, but whoever I'm, you are a
whore if you do but.
She called me a whore.
Bitch, you're dead if you do.
Pretty much.
Yeah.
No, I mean, it ain't ourfriendship.
It never was.
No, I agree.
I've also had a friend that Iknew was an ex of my husband's

(06:44):
roll up and try to hook up withmy husband.
When he wasn't your husband, buty'all were together.
We were.
I mean, we were engaged.
Yeah.
yeeks you stupid bitch.
I don't know if y'all can tellby just listening, you getting
heated?
Yeah, you fucking with the wrongbitches, man.
So I could see that's whysomeone would end a friendship

(07:07):
for sure.
I don't have any friendship thatI mourn right at all.
No.
Now, but again, I, you know,what about family members?
Yeah, I have like 32 niece andnephews, like I can't keep up
with all of them.
Yeah, don't that.
Thank you Jesus and all sistersand brothers, so much, um, that
are left here on earth.
I can't, it it's, it'd be an allday job.

(07:28):
So to me, all my niece andnephews only got a few aunts and
uncles.
They reach out, reach andsometimes I reach out to them,
but I try to stay in contact.
That's why I like Facebook.
Yeah.
So I can see how they're doingand blah, blah, blah.
And I talk to'em or whatever,but.
It's a lot.
It's a lot.
Especially when I have adaughter that is, you know, is
constantly in need.

Awkward moments, friendshipsthat hurt blocking that bitch.
Right now that's not funny.
I'd be checking my Facebook.
Mm-hmm.
I Have you ever blocked anybodyon Facebook?

(15:47):
Yeah, one person.
You have?
One person.
But then I unblocked them later.
Really?
I warned them.
Yeah.
I'm gonna block you if you keepposting this stuff.
Right, right.
Because you're on social mediaand you're saying stuff.
I'm married.
Yeah.
Been with my husband years.
Nobody wants to talk about whoyou've been with and what it was
like and dah, dah, dah.
And my sister and her con keptcommenting on the same, um, the

(16:15):
same post.
Right.
And they kept commenting on it,talking about something in the
past, and I kept saying, Hey,hey guys.
Hey guys.
Hey guys.
And then finally I sent them amessage, said, I'm gonna block
you if you keep doing that.
'cause I mean, their future,their wives was on there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because your husband's not onthere.
Who, he's not gonna to see it,but Yeah.

(16:36):
But I still don't wanna talkabout that stuff's respect.
Respect, yeah.
I'm not disrespecting myhusband.
Like even though I curse him outevery day, that's still that
there's things I'm not, I don'twanna talk about that.
Yeah.
And they keep throwing it outthere.
Throwing it out there.
So I warned her.
She thought it was funny, so Iblocked her, but I didn't block
my sister.
Well, I should.

(16:57):
She's lucky.
I mean, you should, but shestopped talking'cause she knew
how serious it was.
Right.
And then eventually the wifesaid, sorry, we can't be friends
no more within a month.
So she saw it all.
Yeah.
Like I knew she would.
So I guess I did get.
Got you.

(17:17):
So I guess I did.
See, it takes a minute for youto realize.
And it wasn't my fault though.
No.
Like nobody's talking aboutthat.
Stop talking about it.
Yeah.
Oh, remember when?
Cindy?
Remember, right.
Like, right.
Right.
Why are you doing that whenyou're on social media like
that?
That's why I say there's certainthings that can withstand.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like you and I can banter aboutshit and we can talk, but we

(17:41):
would never cut deep.
No, except for a few minutesago.
But it's fine.

I'm petty.
Just remember the pettiness.
I'm gonna pay for this lady.

And kept talking about it, so.
Right.
It wasn't my post.

All of our Facebooks, why areyou doing that?
Right.
And they thought it was funny.
Well, that's disrespectful dude.
I wish a bitch would talk shitabout Scott on Oh my God.
