Ten Years of Knowing Him. Three Months Almost Ruined My Life.

If you don’t hear anything else, if you don’t listen to anything else that I say, hear me when I say that most love is not real.

Hear me when I say that if he hits you once, he will hit you again. If he cuss you out once, he will cuss you out again. If he trolls you, he will troll you again.

And you have to remember who the fuck you are!!!

People that you think that you know, girl, you do not know.

I’ve been knowing this man well over ten years.

Now, I’ve never seen him lift a hand to nobody. I’ve never seen this man come out of character no way, shape, or form.

But I’ve heard gossip in the streets that he likes to get down. But I never seen it.

And here we are, ten years later, and I decided to give this man just a little bit of my time.

And with doing so, I had no idea that man stalked me for months.

He knew my routine. He knew things about me that he should know about me just because of the fact of we were cool, but not on that level.

You come to me like a gentleman. You talk to me like you want me to be your girl. I’m giving you a little bit of time, you know, trying to see where this is going.

I’m taking my time with it because, in all actuality, I really don’t trust these men.

But because I’ve known you for over ten years, I’m gonna give you a little bit and see where it goes.

And this is why I say do your due diligence.

This man is a groomer of young women. This man puts hands and feet on these women. This man cusses you from one end to another.

I discovered this all in a matter of three months of talking to this man.

At this point in my ripe old age, thankfully, I don’t have no children. I don’t have to worry about none of that.

At this point, now I see why women are saying, and even the older women are saying, “Don’t get married.”

Because you don’t know who and what is coming your way, and you don’t know who or what they’re gonna change to be in the next three to five years, maybe even shorter.

But hear me when I say put yourself first.

Don’t let that man entrap you with nothing, because women have intuition.

You know something is wrong.

Don’t think somebody is jealous of your relationship.

You don’t do it for the gram.

All the things that they say.

Pay attention!!!

You always get the representative. You never get the real person.

Hear me and hear me clear.

He’s not who you think he is.

And if somebody warns you, take heed.

Three months could have ruined my life.

Three months.

I’ve been knowing this man for over ten years.

Three months.

No thank you.

Sister, if I can’t say nothing else to you, be safe, protect your peace, and love you more.

P.S. — IF YOU HAVE CHILDREN WITH HIM

If you have children with him, he’s not going to change.

I’ve watched my cousin go through this.

He’s not going to change today. He’s not going to change tomorrow.

Please! Please!

If you want him to be a present father and YOU have to come with that, he doesn’t.

He’s still trying to control you.

Please know your worth.
