- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 มิ.ย. 2018
- Co-host of the "The Real", Adrienne Bailon Houghton, is currently married to gospel singer, Israel Houghton. Before Adrienne found herself in marital bliss with Israel, she was engaged to another man named Lenny Santiago. Adrienne's engagement to Lenny did not last very long. She announced to the world that she ended her engagement with Lenny after realizing that he wasn't the right man for her. I guess the deeper question is...why wasn't he the right one? Watch the video and find out...

Lenny is one of the guys that makes you feel less about yourself. & he’s not even cute
akuba joy Not!!
akuba joy
that big headed wouldn't make me feel shit. Adrienne gave him way too much power
akuba joy Yh
akuba joy, I agree yuck
For real he aint even all that.Im sorry.Good thing Adrienne didnt settle.
She didn't get a key because he didn't want to get busted doing something he wasn't supposed to be doing...
Lucynthia Harris Yes!! I remember she told a story that she was trying to surprise him with a lit birthday cake outside his apartment door but he didn’t pick up the phone (on his birthday) because his phone was charging or something. Right..
OK, real talk!! 👏👏👏👏👍
simple !!!! I remember her saying she went to his crib for the first time & saw a shower cap, she asked his bald head azz why he had one & he said its to accommodate the artists of the label he works for whenever they come over 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Tamar gave her a serious side eye
Maybe he swings the other way.
I agree
He wasn't into her. He just dragged her along for the few years. I wont waste no time with no one like that. I wouldn't even considered marrying somone who cant even show me affection
Right? I would not want to be with someone like that for the rest of my life
Women constantly waste men time by making us wait for sex when they know in advance if they're gonna do it or not so fair exchange no robbery plus she jumped into a relationship kinda quick so I'm gonna love seeing this plane crash lol
He knew her history, a man shows no respect to a woman with her track record, not a real man.
I feel like im in adriannes place
She was probably a nasty girl. Remember Rob Kardashian use to pound her about her filthyness.
5 years and no key or any affection ?
exactly lmao he trash
And you don't realize how many women actually waste so much of their time in that kind of relationship. When they should spend more of their effort with a guy who REALLY shows how serious he is about you.
I think it's best not to give much effort at all to the relationship until you see him giving effort. That is, if you're looking for a long term relationship. Women show their cards to quickly when their into someone.
could L , be closeted?... just looks funny...idunno
That's what they said ...
Well looking at who they took a picture with if that was his friend, I would have been concerned.
“If I’m honest, it almost felt like I was pushing for EVERY step” that line hurt. 😞
I felt that
Like shit.
We've all been there, one way or the other.
bruh😂 thats what happens with fuckboys. sis shuda known better !
It broke me.
Note to everyone: Dont settle!!!
Sarah'sDalyLife I'm so sad my man of 7 year's has cheated on me.. and I caught him in the act of things . it hurts so bad for someone to portray me.. just found out today . and I keep crying this is inspiring
TaWaNA' D Smith b strong my sister God is in charge..
TaWaNA' D Smith hello my sister.. I hve experience tht.. Need pray. 678 507 8017.. Thks min scott
TaWaNA' D Smith ... sorry hun... I’m sure you saw signs and reg flags along the way... listen to them.. don’t ignore them... and move on while your still young... don’t waste any more years on this!
Sarah'sDalyLife you would have to be a complete fool to not ask and receive a key! Men that I was not involved with gave me keys to their place. What a disgrace to be sleeping with a man that will not give you his heart. His organs yes, heart no!, finally she woke up good for her.
He was a season. That's all. He wasn't 4 her but she got her happy ending.
Time will tell marriage just started this ain't no fairy tale
Sori Yazz more than likely this narcissistic girl will never be happy and will more than likely cheat
James Parker do you have some sort of vendetta against her? This whole comment thread is you bashing her personality
mychemicalclifford exactly 💯
@@PragmaticProminence iktr
Lenny was probably abusive too from what it sounds like. As a woman who's first bf was an abusive man, I can see the signs and her saying he didn't like her doing what he didn't do says a lot. I too almost settled bc I was young and naive and bc he was my first everything, I couldn't imagine being with any other man nor believe any other man could love me. Thank god I grew wiser and learned my worth and moved on. I have a real man now who me treats me like a queen. My mom settled for my dad, even though he stepped out on her and has 2 kids outside the marriage. She's miserable but won't ever leave. I refuse to ever end up that way. Never settle ladies. You will find better.
i know how it feels i hv been there.You literally think your first bf is your everything and u aint gonna find better...........sad part they gonna hurt u
I needed to read this. Inspirational 💕💕 congrats to you on breaking a generational curse! I’m trying to do the same for so many different things right now and it’s so hard. I applaud you & thank you for showing there’s a way out and it’s possible. 🌤🙌🏾💛
when a guy doesn't show pda is because he is a player and doesn't people to know that you ate together.
I love youuu I needed this

"Don't settle if you're not a hundred percent sure." - Adrienne Bailon
DJTriumph38 when you are 100% sure no need to settle (for less) that is. You get the best.
Urban Qid exactly.
Definitely agree , when u find the right one you will know and there's no doubt 🤗💗 love really is out there, just take your time there still good woman & men out there 👍
Cindy bell I couldn't agree with you more.
She likes very ugly men! She is obviously insecure
I can't believe she put it with that for five years. So many red flags.
basketballbabe03 I’ve been there. Did the same and had to let it go. It happens. Smh I was kinda young. But still I was being naive. 🤷🏾♀️
basketballbabe03 when your I love you don't see red flags you would brush it off and believe whatever he's telling you everything not gonna add up when your inlove I'm sure you had red flags in your relationship but still stand let's not act like we're perfect
basketballbabe03 Unbelievable....
Unfortunately, it's a common story. Woman want so much for the "happily ever after" they compromise just for the look. And what happens? They are just miserable behind close door and consistently are trying to make something happen that never was there. Depression ensues and without support this becomes their life forever... There is happiness out there ladies. It may be wrapped up in something you never thought. Be open and enjoy YOUR life. Don't worry about others.
Neeshpeesh123 Me too! As we get older and wiser we learn our worth!
What Adrienne did was really courageous. A lot of people end up going through with the engagement and wedding because they don't want to be alone. They think it's a better choice to settle. Although it took her five years to realize it, I'm still very proud of her!
I was adrienne. i was adapting to the fact my partner wasn't affectionate. but truth is i wanted him to show me to the world but i barely got an "i love you" in person
Welcome's House alot actually. and plus i wasnt saying in public. i was saying in person stupid
@Welcome's House does it matter what gender the couple is? It's about feeling confident in yourself and the relationship you're in and how that person makes you feel. I see many same-sex couples in public holding hands, etc. You love who you love, and I don't have a problem with that and I'm a heterosexual female.
Welcome's House I live in NYC went to brooklyn with my date ( GUY) on the A Train with his head leaning on my shoulder. Train full of straight guys who stared but I did not give a fuck or dam.
Welcome's House I’m from San Francisco I see it everyday . If two people love each they should be affectionate to their significant other no matter where they are. Happy LGBT Pride Month .
Tony Rodriguez mannnn I’ve been there, I’m glad I didn’t settle
Adrienne dodged a bullet... I hope her current marriage is right for them both.
Regardless of what we think of Adrienne, she was a good example of what to do when you don’t feel right in a relationship. Never settle. It may be embarrassing that you’ve invested all this time but if he is not the one for you, he’s not and I rather be embarrassed before any huge commitments rather than after getting married and possibly having a kid and having all of that stress and heartache attached to me.
That Girl Kels omg yes!! Amen to that.
Yes... I'm going thru the exact same thing right now.
This is so true.
ymarty1990 praying for you!
That Girl Kels If she broke off her engagement to be single, I would have been impressed. Trust and believe, if it were not for Israel suddenly swooping in she would not have had this epiphany that she deserves better and should break off her engagement. She would have still been with Lenny.
Good for her, Lenny would have dragged out that engagement another 5 yrs.
Adrienne is beautiful inside out. I’m glad she found The One ♥️
i guess Im asking randomly but does anybody know a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the password. I love any tricks you can offer me.
@Torin Landyn instablaster =)
It took her five years to see her worth but better late than never. Glad she followed her intuition.
For some women it takes longer. Lets not focus on the length of time it took her to realize her worth but the fact she realized and took action.
Im feeling this now
Whoa. Her love language is physical touch and he wasn't fully letting her in.
Desi R. Youre 💯 right.
T J so very true.
T J but he proposed
Everyone isn’t the same and some ppl just aren’t affectionate even when they love you
Andreia Williams he cheated the whole relationship and didn’t even put effort into said proposal
Andreia Williams and that’s why she had to leave they weren’t compatible
If you settled you’ll never be satisfied. Speaking from experience. ⚔️
I agree also speaking from experience as well
Look at God! She is now happy and is being treated like a Queen! So never be afraid to leave someone if something feels wrong. Always follow that God given Woman intuition 👏🏾❤️
Gernita Brutus you are a cutie.love😊
Ummmm im pretty sure God didnt arrange for her to be dating at the time an already married man...so ok
I'm happy she's finally happy and has someone that loves her full and through ❤
Simone Umba me too.
I would not have an issue per say except when Haughton slams gay relationships in his music/publically because "God is against it."...all I can say is since he totes the bible and sings gospel music..THEN he should also live up to what it says about adultery and divorce. I can't stand the hypocrisy. Love is love but for Haughton it depends on whether it involves him or not. Not cool. He has a lot to say about relationships of others but wants eveyone to cheer them on with this. I enjoyed his music until I heard the degrading of others in it then I had to pause.
Simone Umba 💜💜💜
kdchapman2012 so true! But most religious people are Hypocrites.
Too many women settle for fear of not meeting anyone else. Feel the fear and do it anyway. I vote for happiness ❤️
Kerry Berry Be fearless women and leave. Work on your self and get your men God has for you.
Love yourself which is very important!!!
Yassss
Kerry Berry I simply LOVE this quote!! 😍😍😍 This is my new motto for 2019. ❤️👌🏾
I'm single but when I find me a nice Christian melanin girl. I'm treating her like a queen. When you find a good one treat them rite love them ❤
sure hope you're a man.... cus god ain't having no crap
the end is too near
I'm right here
Yessss king👏👏👏
♥️
nydea4realbaby 😂🤣...omg sis way to put everything on the table
I love how open and honest she is about the mistakes she made in her past 😭 so happy for her
Never settle for crumbs, know your worth 😍
Mishon White mm
I like your picture 🙏🏻😍
That key story was so whack. I totally understand Adrienne’s decisions now.
Renie Nostalgic or was she giving him reasons not to fully trust her! Never thought of that did you lol , she dated rob Kardashian that says a lot! If we heard his side it wouldn’t be pretty I bet because she seems sneaky and annoying
@@jamesparker722 So then why wouldn't he just break up with her, if he thinks she's sneaky?? That still makes him an asshole, and we already know he cheated, never gave her a key, finally proposed under pressure of being together for 5+ yrs and didn't even put any thought into the proposal (all shown on episodes of The Real, and there's even more than these examples). Regardless of whatever you have against Adrienne, these are facts not opinions so if you like Lenny so much go check if he's still stringing girls along. Of course it's Adrienne's fault for staying, just like it's Lennys fault for being a cheating, negligent asshole
Scofields1828 it’s not facts only hearing Adrienne side, and I don’t “like” this other guy I’m just speaking on the clear sneaky nature of Adrienne , her as dated rob Kardashian fir crying out loud lol , she doesn’t strike a smart man as the wifey type Trust me!
Gurl you've been fortunate not to have encountered a playa then..well these dayz..most single men.. Anyways playas who just leading u in & wasting ur time til they get u in the bef..but they will not define a relationship plus u definitely not fixin to get a key, because he is still in them streets picking up females bringin em back to the house meanwhile making sure those same chicks dont leave no tampons, perfume , earrings, draws, bodywash behind before they leave his house to go home so when his main chick- -Adrienne-will be coming to town so there cant be no paper/item trail.. that's how real playas set up their operations at their crib. So if you seeing a guy & he always making sure you taking ur items/clothes home each& every time u at his house/apt
Then you my dear are in ' rotation" you and some other female(s) are
sharing a man and he got u in rotationon/schedule
He didn't want to give up the key because he didn't want to get caught cheating in his apartment by Adrienne.
😕You lived with him and had no key to get in your place of residence!!!! O HELL NAW!! I'm glad she left and found Happiness 👏👏.
When I was 25, I ended a relationship with a guy who lacked affection when I thrive in and with affection. One of the best decisions I ever made ❤ I'm married to the very affectionate Love of My Whole Life🤗 (btw, he's divorced with a kid and miserable) Ladies & Gents DO NOT EVER EVER SETTLE
L A I cackled when I shouldn’t have lmaoooooo! But happy for you 💕 I just got out of a situation like this and yalls comments are inspiring me.
I've dated men like that before - not affectionate, no pda. Annoying! Too cool for affection - such nonsense. I'm glad she didn't marry Lenny. She would have divorced a year or two later. I'm happy she's with someone who makes her happy and is willing to show her how much he loves her.
mscardioqueen I hear what you're saying, but I've been married now for 17 years, (met him when I was 19), and my husband has never been big on PDA.
On the flip side, I've had boyfriends before him who loved PDA, who also loved attention from other women.
So PDA, or a lack thereof, is no real indicator of whether or not a relationship will stand the test of time.
jane Patton
That's true. PDA IS not an indicator of whether a relationship will last. That was by no means me saying that it was in my first comment. It's best to find someone who meets your emotional needs. In this case, if Adrienne feels that affection is important to her then she should find a man, which she did, who will satisfy that need. Too many women concede and allow their emotional needs to come in 2nd when it should be 1st. Generally, I saw her 1st France's behaviour as a form of control. No women needs that.
She saw that her needs were not being met. She let him go and found someone better suited to her.
mscardioqueen I'M DEALIN WITH SUMTHIN SIMILAR NOW & I CAN INDEED SAY I'M CANCELLING DA WHOLE THING#I DESERVE & GONNA GET GREATER😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
mscardioqueen agreed!
mscardioqueen church boy is probably very good to her. In ways she never experienced, especially if lives by what the bibles say how to love your wife, very different from probably what lenny was capable doing.
It sounds like Lenny Santiago wasn't mature enough for her. I know that some people have their preferences but some of the stuff he was doing or wasn't doing sounds like something my teenage cousins would do.
He works in the music business with Roc Nation I'm sure aspiring female artists were floating around him quite challenging to commit in a distance relationship
More than immature, it doesn’t seem like he was really that into her or loved her. Yes not everyone is affectionate, but a man who loves you will shout it to the world you’re HIS woman, and he insisted on keeping her a secret. Even after years he wouldn’t even give her a key to his place. It almost seems those 5 yrs he had a main woman or women and she’s was the side chick...the way she got and accepted that treatment.
Meriem so he shouldn’t have gotten with her tf
DisneyStarsTube
it's when she moved to the west coast became challenging i guess few people can succeed in a distance relationship
You're basing this off HER version of events. Very few people tell their story from a critical point of view. It's usually an edited point of view. Don't determine a silent party's position based off of the vocal party's testimony. Lenny's never spoken ill of Adrienne publicly since the split, so let that sink in.
She doesn’t go for lookers does she🤷🏾♀️ but looks ain’t everything
From what I have seen, Rob (back when he was slim and fit) was the best looking one.
They actually look alike
No looks aren't everything!
C B
You sure doesn't go for Lookers😂
Have you seen her crushes on man crush monday😂😂😂
It's not that she didn't like Affection, it's because the guy she was with wasn't giving any, and when you don't get that kind of affection from the person you are with, you don't actually feel loved. Been there and done that. I'm truly happy for her, sometimes we have to go through the bad to get to the good 💍👰🏽. Lesson learned 🤷🏽♀️
Elaine White yesss I went through the same situation. Emotional abandonment was so real for me in that situation and I’m sure she felt the same. You don’t wanna feel like you constantly chasing a man. Eventually you just straight up don’t feel good enough and it sucks.
I feel like if you're not affectionate in any way you can't be a friends or a boyfriend you're basically a stranger
Ivy TheGreat I get nervous when people touch me. I'm not use to affection because I never had it growing up. I really want to be affectionate. It may take someone time for me to get use to it.
aundrea hodges Yeah that makes sense. I hope it gets easier for you
Ivy TheGreat my stepdad isn’t lovey dovey but I can tell he’s so in love with my mom. Lenny didn’t act in love at all.
*aundrea hodges8 no you're okay sweetie. this is a full grown ass man who ACTIVELY seeked a female out and allowed her to be in his life for 5 YEARS & PROPOSE TO HER knowing damn well she was totally different from him, why do that to her and yourself? He don't got no type of affection issues and if he do guess what? It's called BEING A GROWN ASS MAN and telling your woman about it. Not making her feel like she the problem. I been in Adrienne shoes to a T had a guy just like him and it's not cute nor excuseable. it's like being an introverted, shy, quiet, not attention seeking person but you buy a dress with ya boobs hanging out going to a crowded place but don't want nobody staring at least. And from my example I am that kinda person but if I do that I'mma suck it up and own it cause I know what I'm doing. there are ALWAYS men and women like Lenny who do this shit and I'll never understand. yes opposites attract but there is a line that should not be crossed.
Well you have to remember people have gone through things that kinda made them shut down that vulnerable, affectionate side. So it’s kinda insensitive to say that because you can be a great friend even though you’re not touchy feely
I saw the episode where she said that he didn’t want to give her a key and she stayed there. I was like red flag!!! Lenny don’t act right.
I saw that! I want sure if she was talking about Lenny though. Smh.
Honestly you can judge a man by his friends and he is friends with Fabulous and Emily B and their relationship is a mess. The same mentality that a man's friends have about just having a woman strung along for years is the same mentality he probably has. IF you want to be with a man that values marriage, find a man who has married friends, because people tend to share the same values as their friends.
Jae Ehm your are sooo right about that. He prolly hadn’t seen too many positive Relationships.
Jae Ehm I agree. Good people flock together because bad people corrupt good morals.
Yes I still can’t get over that part wth mf nooo!
They are really cute & compliment each other very well ❤️ Glad that she knew her worth ! I just recently called off an engagement because I wasn’t truly inlove with the person . So I had to cut things off & I’m glad I didn’t settle I know GOD has someone for me ❤️ & I will be 100% sure & it will be right.
Enheritance Derrico. It takes a God fearing man.
I just called off my engagement too, I can’t settle. God won’t let me and I thank Him
Enheritance Derrico r
Dixie Carter that’s great! Happy you had the courage to do so! ❤️
@@jermainescott3825 Yeeessssssss! A TRUE God fearing Man!
She just told MY story... makes me believe that one day I will find my happiness
You will :)
She took control of her life! And made her fairytale happen. Good for you Adrian! 😍
Good for her for not settling!🙌🏽💁🏽♀️
Some wise words from Adrienne. A lot of women settle...A LOT.
Exactly
His ex wife should have done the same thing. It takes two people to commit to a marriage. Some women don't like change, will sit there and allow the man to cheat, disrespect them over and over. Hoping and praying one say he will come on in the house. Most of the times their heart isn't there for the right reason. So it's easy for him to move on quickly. She did the right thing by leaving a person who isn't affectionate and she knew deep down, that's what she wanted.
GLADYS FINCH yes girl!!!
mareelovely you right! And I was one of them woman ... never again!
Lenny definitely didn’t deserve her, so glad she’s finally happy💜💜💜
Me and my mom were just talking about something similar to this. How some guys want to be with you, but out in public they want to act like they don't want to be with you and don't want to show you any type of love and affection. What you show me in private you need to show me in public as well. Bet he wanted some love and affection when it was time for sex. Mhm. smh.
Nesha Britwood exactly !! I was in a situation just like this. And Mann. When they want some sex all of a sudden they affectionate 🤔 yet couldn’t stand affection. Ok. Only on his terms.
Men do that to ugly chicks or a Girl they dont care for at all
Red Scorpion facts let’s be real now if yo chick bad you gone show the whole world, in some way he felt like she was ugly🤣on everything I would have been showing her off Adrienne bad fuck he talking bout.
Mr. Walk Down I really doubt he thought she was ugly, he was probably just wasn’t proud of her because her reputation, or generally had side chicks
@@nikiracarter maybe he's shy, maybe it's culture and upbringing
I'm so happy she found someone who reciprocates love, I can't imagine how awful that must of been for her. They are such a beautiful couple 😊
That's sooooo sad, I'm even happier for her that she found Isreal the LOVE of her LIFE
Vala Dina
Agreed
@@ronanonita1319 the fuck u talking about.... Adrienne is well of and successful.
You can always tell if someone's happy by a "glow" in their eyes, especially in pictures.
She definitely found it now.
Women have to learn to answer their own questions “why didn’t you offer me the key” because he didn’t want you to have it. Simple. Swallow that hard truth and move on. Stop giving men so much power in trying to make them address your feelings with words look at their actions answer your own questions sometimes. Talk to yourself.
Love this.
Wow! I’m so glad she left. Now I can see why she met and married Israel so soon. I probably would’ve done the same thing. If you know what you want and need, you have to go after what you want. If not, you will suffer internally and externally.
Well said. 👏 👏 👏
Desi R. Amen! Thank you love. I’ve been where Adrienne was. To be devoid of love and affection in a relationship can hurt you. Thank God she found the strength to leave him and find true love. I pray you find the same thing very soon ❤️
wow thank you! just what I needed to hear :)
yeah when you get with a guy like lenny and someone like israle come around you go fast.
She has said before that she and Israel got married pretty quickly after dating but they knew each other as friends for 3 years prior. I think they had worked on a project together...maybe that Church Girl movie?
Such a powerful move. To leave after 5y and at this stage of your life 25+, is truly a move by faith.🙏🏾
I’ve watched Adrienne come a long way to find the right one😭❤️ I’m so proud of you Adrienne. Thank you for reminding us to never settle and to find that one person who will look at us like we are magic ❤️
I literally been in a 3.5 year relationship just like this like I felt like I wasn’t a girlfriend. Lol but now I have a wonderful bf whom I am blessed with ❤️❤️❤️
Look at me running to the Restroom at work to catch this tea 🤣🤣🤣
pauline Kelly 😂😂😂
pauline Kelly lmao😂😂😂
Lol same sis . I had to take a min
pauline Kelly 😂😂😂😂 yaaaaaaaassssssss girl yaaasssss😋
pauline Kelly girl me too I'm in there right now😂😂😂
Glad she moved on and found someone who seem to appreciate her more 😊 love the honesty.
Yeah
she's so emotionally intelligent I wish her the best
If he dont show affection to you then know someone else is stealing your affection. Lenny dint love her he was just keeping her
Fr I was thinking that, he was probably trying to make himself look like he was single..
Glad she's happy she is truly getting the newlywed spread
Lynette Price lol🍪🍦🍿🥂🥤🍩
Lynette Price she is extra wide. After she has her first baby it's over
Honestly I can’t deal with a man that doesn’t give much affection or has no initiative as a man. I feel like in the terms of men, it’s men baggage just like women have baggage. It has to do with deeper rooted issues that he needs to get solved...
D Alexandria Baby. You said a mouthful. All true. Facts and a shame!!!
I see she has a type 😐
Brittany Jacqueline Right!? Lenny and Israel are both husky boys! Lol!
Brittany Jacqueline yesss she does
It's either that, or on a subconscious level. That's happened to me and I've seen it before.
Lmao well maybe she would like rob more now that he's fat too
Jenesis zapata Petty 😭
Lenny just never loved her, period.
Sometimes you gotta leave the no good thug., winning in private but no one knows yall together. Get a nerd that makes you happy win together in Public❤❤
Kini Universoul I don't think anybody would describe Lennie s. as a no-good Thug. He's very successful and well known in the music industry.
DR. THRIVE the comment was a message to women who settle for bad boys tryna look cool and unhappy on the inside. All im sayin is get you a simple man who may not have it all and just be happy.
I love my nerd 🤓
Kini Universoul ...YES HONEY! 😳👏🏾
It’s hard to “weed out” the liars that put on a show to get that person’s time. Time flies by so fast. Tomorrow’s not guaranteed to anyone.
Well she still got her music man. Israel got Grammys! 🤷🏾♀️
This is the first bit of clarity that I’ve gotten over why she was no longer engaged to that looser...I really can’t stand it when some men try and control the relationship negatively....
Doagae Porbeni aman
And she got a much bigger better ring now 😂
Gernita Brutus it's not about a ring. Don't focus on materialism! God is real. Love and being there for a person is everything rings don't matter
@debra James you obviously have no sense of humor
I truly love the way you put this story all together! Short- very informative- and to the point! Loved it!!!!!
I luv all ur work PLEASE post as often as u can cause I'm here for it sis!!! Thanks for being GREAT at what u do!!! 😇😄
Lavida Roberson i agree
Shes posting very frequently
Yikes. Well at least she's happy now.
gigglyfitzgirl girl i see you under all the TH-cam comments 🙋🏿♀️🙋🏿♀️ heyy
Judith Pierre hey girl! 😄
Yes. It’s brave of her to do all of this on national television too.
exactly!
Thank you so much for telling this story. I wasn't previously aware of the situation, but I can relate on many levels. I was in a relationship for years, and towards the latter I was discontent. I just kept telling myself that we already put so much time into it, we should make it work. When it finally came time to talking about long term, I knew I had to walk or I'd be unhappy. Has nothing to do with him being a bad person, he just wasn't for me. But he will make a woman very happy one day. I'm happy to say that I am happily married now.
Please don't settle ladies. And don't give into comfort. Have faith that God will put in your life who He intends for you.
I just want to say thank you for how you put the video together. Thank you. You basically let it all come from the source and there was no speculation. Receipts, receipts, receipts. Amazing job!
*Adrienne.❤. Wanted to be a WIFE so bad, and I'm happy for her.. alot of people "side-eyed" her but, if she's HAPPY and he's HAPPY good for them* 😊👍❤💍
She was inlove she would do anything ppl can't judge her we women has be there before she couldn't see it but other ppl seen it
Nikki C yeah and watching this video you can see all of them were trying to tell her something wasn’t right. Lol
Neeshpeesh123 yes but when your inlove you don't see anything or listen to anyone that happen with alot of women
*Nikki C* no it's not about the classic blind in love. This hit me hard cause I been in the EXACT same type of realtionship that she had been in. Let me tell you deep down under all the lies and fronts she poorly tried to force herself to fit into for the world, the real and lenny she knew. She tried accommodate and change ehrself or just put up with it out of moral obligation and to stick it out. This was a mental realtionship more than emotional, they mentally loved each other but did not love from the heart. Cause the fact he never grew to take risks or at least try to grow and be more affectionate let alone give her a key or whatever that shows it all.
Great video! Thanks for all the throw back clips!! They were spot on! 👍👍👍
Very nice upload and commentary. Thank you!💖💖
Thank you for linking this all together. I was slowly figuring it out with each episode. He was not for her and I'm glad she made that decision before marrying him.
I'm in this situation she was in. It's very hard
DollTron 🙄 you are way too fine for all of that, get out and get you a brotha 😝
DollTron Girl don't do it !
Rip it of like a bad aid girl!! It’s hard but you deserve full happiness marriage is for life can you be happy fully happy with this person your whole life!?? If the answer is anything other than an absolute yes it’s not worth it
DOLLTR0N move around they don’t change
DOLLTR0N lets show compassion to you! Decide what you want and demand it!, if you deserve more you will get more. I'm not talking about money and jewelry ok
I'm talking about emotional harmony, emotional comfort is priceless. Let's be clear life is for the living, live on and get what you want.
Her story is really relatable, thanks for the video!!!!!
This was very eye opening! I was one who judged but I’m glad that I was wrong! Blessings to their marriage!
I remember when Adrienne first got engaged to Lenny. I was like, "noooooo Adrienne"!!! I was so happy when she left him and found true love with Israel. God really blessed her for being true to herself.
I’m glad she dodged that bullet!!!!!
Oh my God I'm terrified this is my relationship!
Some guys are lucky they got that beautiful and faithful girls,while the average guys can't find that.
I adore Adrianne, I'm so happy she has found happiness, and I can't wait till she's pregnant. ♥♥♥♥
Thank you for so much for making these videos, your channel is the first one I check as soon as I get on TH-cam ♥♥♥♥
Last time I was this early Kim hadn’t gone to the White House.
this was so good and positive THANKS for this......
I'm happy to see her happy. I deeply empathize with her when it comes to saying yes, even though it didn't feel right. When you're with someone for so long, you WANT to see it work. And even through the ups and downs, there's a quality to the person that keeps you intrigued, whether it be the hope of things working out or changing, or the special moments between you two that feel right...I'm just happy she listened to her gut and broke off the engagement versus having to get a divorce.
That sounds horrible, he was a control freak and he obviously didn’t like her. Man, love makes you do some crazy things. If you’re w. Someone and they won’t give you a key leave! Man or woman. It’s easier said than done, but you don’t have to put up with feeling like you’re being a burden to someone.
That's usually how it happens you let go of that dead weight that was holding you back and bam you find the one that's been out there for you this whole time
I swear she does the best videos, never any hate just positivity. Loved this
Very nice video. I've learnt a lot. Don't settle!
Good she finally found her worth👏👏👏👏👏
Shonnie Person No she didn’t because that is not wrapped in a man boo!
I'm so happy for Adrienne, she deserves every happiness and joy that's come her way😊
Great video!
I needed to see this! This is a great story! Thank you! ❤
I believe n that phrase "Never Settle "
Wow I had no idea Adrienne and Lenny’s relationship was like that. A is such a passionate, affectionate person; I could’ve never seen her being with a person like that. I’m glad she found happiness now. Israel seems like a much better match.
Great video! Love how you not only say facts, but have video clips backing your statements.
This is
such a positive outlook appreciate this awesome sharing from Empressive..classy not trashy !!!
When you really love someone and you're all in, its only natural that you would want public displays of affection reciprocated. I couldn't imagine a lifetime without affection and longing for that in a relationship, much less a marriage. When you have to gauge whether to approach the topic or even the inclination to touch or hold your boyfriend for fear of rejection, you could only imagine what that feels like as someone's wife
I watched the video. They seem happy and I’m happy for them. I just still don’t know about Israel. Prayerfully he doesn’t stray in this marriage the way he strayed with his ex-wife.
Go girl, I am so proud that you listened to your heart ❤️ & thank u for ur vids! They’re so well researched!
Great video. Good to see you back on a positive note. The positive vibe is what makes your channel so refreshing! This was nice.
I rather be rejected for asking to be loved and appreciated than be unhappy in a unloving relationship. I damn sure wouldn't put up with that for 5 years. Glad she's happy now.
Is it just me or Lenny looks like Rev Run from Run DMC 🤷🏾♀️
This is a well put together video, thank you for all the facts.
Thanks for sharing this
