AMEN. I'm one of them :/ my mom is still hanging around....i've been so frustrated, luckily they only had me and my little brother (we're grown now) because she couldn't get pregnant easily, she had to go through a lot to have us....but now, i'm just like, nothing more i can say or do now, to either of them (my mom and my dad)
I was dumb enough to have stayed for almost 30 years.!! married at 20.. divorced just before 50! Now I have a boyfriend who treats me like a queen !!! ❤️👍😊
@@aavv1818 I cried and prayed for a very long time , and due to my ex-husband abuse and the the abuse of my dad , I spent many years in counseling .. ... It pays to PRAY ❤️
Oh Lord!...and Sis is soooo beautiful! Run girl🤔🤨...You don't deserve this...get a plan! And you have, not only an earthly Sis, but a heavenly friend who is also your real father, holding out his hands to help you!🙏🙏🙏
I think this is why most people hold on “The time invested” I’m hoping who ever reads this comment would be brave enough to do what’s right !! Nobody deserves emotional trauma
My mum made the decision to raise me and my sister by herself. At first I never understood why but I realize that I didn't lose anything because the only Father I needed and the happiness she seeked was from the one above, the almighty God. Shout out to all the women who've left broken relationships to raise their children in a happy environment.
This really blessed me. I was just saying this to myself the other day. My father was absent after a while , and I found myself searching for another unfortunately all the men that pretended to care for me as a father really only wanted to groom me for other things. Many nights I cried trying to figure out why. But I later realized I have the greatest father ever known , Jesus. One who truly loves me unconditionally . I had to realize he is all I need.
Robin Phillips that’s how I was able to leave I asked God to help me leave because I found 100 reasons to stay but God helped me out. Some marriages aren’t blessed to begin with! Get OUT!!!
My children's father was the wrong one. I left him after 7 years of living in hell. I never regret the day I left him. You have to love yourself enough to leave.
I left him too. I see him most of the time because I don't live very far from his place. I am happy m out of the relationship. Now the problem is I feel like because we have been intimate that you know perhaps m cheap. I try to cheer myself up. And I don't know why I feel this way. If I could afford to move I would.
I can relate totally I saw my father stress my mother so hard that when she thought of leaving him I supported her 💯 because what he was doing to her effected me I was 11 years old when the got divorced but I have my mom like a mother and father and I’m well Raised because of her. ❤️
The pain and anguish in her voice and her face...she doesn't even have to move far from her children's father; she can move across town where her kids can still be with dad. Although I'm very well aware that this is "easier said than done," I also pray that she's not staying with him out of fear of repercussions (i.e. abusive behaviors or threats towards her or the kids because we're only getting a snippet of what the young lady was telling us for tv.) A lot of times, it's waaaaay more going on behind the scenes in homes than what we know about...I hope Steve does an update on some of these ladies. My prayers go out to those who are hurting. 🙏🏿💔😔
Right, kids are smart. They will pretend to sleep soon as you open their door and creep up with ears clinged to the door as soon as you close it just to listen to the argument.
Don't put your kids thru that. Even sleeping in a small apt. can be so much fun for the kids! Make it an adventure! They will love it and you will build gorgeous memories of hugs, snuggles etc. Even sleeping on a mattress in the living room, like camping out with all the kids! Do fun things, go to fun places, parks, pools etc. Now you're ALL free!
I was in a bad abusive relationship for just over two years and left after he thought he strangled me to death, I blacked out so he stopped. My daughter was only a few months and I left fearful and lost but God... He sent me my angel not even 6mths after all this and now we’re married and been together 11yrs. It’s hard to leave but you can, just be smart and don’t put you or your kids in harms way when you do,God bless
@@travelfoodielove dating is the best part of a relationship, he's showing you his true colors. You get married he'll be worse to you. What will it take for you to wake up and leave? You're gonna continue to put yourself in a vulnerable spot by sleeping with this loser and get pregnant and have to deal with this forever? Why would you do that to yourself? You don't think highly of yourself? If you don't think highly of yourself he definitely doesn't think highly of you, he's abusing you and you're putting up with it staying with him. You know what you look like? You'll look like a strong independent women when you leave...
My parents don't get along at all, I've had to break up their fights for 7 years like I was the adult and they were the children. Their drama combined with the ghetto people I had to deal with at school caused me to get C and D grades throughout high school. I've seen my mother cry and my extended family sees how this bad relationship affects her health. I've begged her to leave him for years, but she won't because she cares too much about what people back in our country would think. I told her she shouldn't worry about that because every time my father goes to visit there he spreads lies about her to everyone they know. At this point, I've stopped trying to help her because dealing with her drama is draining and I want to do something with my life. I still live with them while I go to community college, but after 2 years of straight As I'll transfer to a college far away from them. *I refuse to be miserable like she is.*
now i understand that you're stressed and tired and you see how it's emotionally draining you. but, think about all the sacrifices your mother has had to make if she had made any for you, if she's a good mother to you, and has always tried her best for you, just rethink. recalculate before you make such a drastic decision. and also you don't have to be miserable like she is. just think about it.
@Dragoness Nat i am not saying she should "stay" in the same situation. i simply just told her to rethink her choice of moving so far away. yes, people run away, because of the trauma the environment has impacted on them, but running away isn't the same as moving on and breathing. you run, that thing will always chase you. Bottom line, i just want her to be very sure before cutting off ties like that, (that's what it seems like), such decisions are easy to regret. Do you get me now?
Sometimes you just have to let go. And even though you love your mom...you can't live her life for her you can only live your own.Go spread your wings baby girl. Wish you all the best. And keep up those A's!
maryam M.S I get what you're saying but sometimes the best way to move on is to get away from the environment. I think she's making a great choice and I'm proud of get for living her life on get terms and not feeling guilt to stay and be burdened when it's her mothers decision
I did 3 years with my ex, thinking he would change or things would be different. Nah...it didn't happen. So I decided to leave it's hard; but if you want sanity & a piece of mind you have to do it.
Why would you think someone would change? What sense does that make? I'm proud of you for leaving. You're courageous and strong. Please don't think someone will change if they show you there true colors believe them.
Steve Harvey was on another level of this show today it was so beautiful he took everyone somewhere this is why we need him to stay on TV and honestly I hope that they make this show he had today and yesterday a full hour show like how Oprah used to do on her show because everything he said for us as women we do need to hear and we need to feel we need men to really understand us sometimes. Steve just really touched me personally.
Kids will only be happy if they see there mom is happy... U also need to show them u are strong enough to leave someone who is treating u bad.. I left my ex when my son was 1 month old and that was the best decision I have made!!!!
I was getting so emotional watching this woman who is emotionally in pain and I can never put the blame on her past decisions and say that it could never happen to me because life happens and we are bound to make the wrong decisions. I just hope she makes the decision today to walk away and find a man who is willing to love her and her children wholeheartedly. I've experienced heartache and staying because I kept ignoring the red flags but even though I wasted time but I made the right decision in 2016 and now I am even happier in 2019 from walking away that one day. Ladies, choose yourselves because there are some cruel guys out here.
I felt this man I was in a five year relationship and the last year. I was not happy and I just stayed because I had been in it so long, but let me tell you the joy the happiness you feel when you finally LEAVE you will sleep better, smile wider, you will laugh harder and a weight will be lifted let burdens go!!!
I am in a similar situation it's been 4years & 7 months. I've been in and out of the relationship but after seeing this video and your comment, I know i won't regret my decision of leaving him and that I'll be happy without him. Thank you...
What Steve and that other woman said is so true. I grew up in a very broken home, where every night my parents were fighting and screaming at each other, and calling each other such awful words no kid should have to hear their own parents say (especially to each other). They weren’t happy and we could tell. Living in such a household as 7 and 10 year olds definitely effected how we acted in school and other places. But once my parents got a divorce, it was bittersweet. Yes our family was broken apart, but now 10 years later, I can see how much happier my parents are now that they have found other people for them. Yes it was really hard for my brother and I, but it’s better to see your parents separated and happy than to have them together in a broken home where no one is happy. I wouldn’t trade their happiness for the world. And now as an 18 year old, I know more about a good vs. a bad relationship than most of my older friends. My parent’s divorce taught me a lot.
33 years old? Still young and cute. Maybe some self esteem issues with the kids. Nothing that can't be fixed. Leave him, focus on yourself for awhile you'll be just fine.
This makes me so happy because I just left a bad relationship that only lasted a few months but it was hard to. I feel so much better and I didn’t want to waste too much time with him
SPIRITUALLY I SEE THIS A WHOLE LOT IN THIS WORLD AND IT HURTS ME!!!# SHE IS CRYING ON THIS STAGE NOT JUST BECAUSE OF PAIN, BUT BECAUSE SHE IS GETTING READY TO LEAVE AND SHE REALIZES WHAT SHE HAS TO ENDURE TO DO THAT! A SHORT TERM LONLINESS AND HEARTACHE, IS BETTER THAN A LONG-TERM ILLNESS# GET YOUR SELVES TOGETHER QUEENS AND KINGS AND GET OUT!!! WEEPING MAY ENDURE FOR A NIGHT, BUT JOY COMES IN THE MORNING!!! 👼🙏😇💞👑🙇💁👊🔥
Steve always get straight to the point and loved that about him. He is a true essence of a man who trys to help woman find their way. He is very right about kids rather be in a happy home then an unpleasant one. When you see the red flags when dating dont get married to that man. Life is short so make yourself happy!
Thank you! I've bn dealing with a similar situation! Making excuses to stay, bc it's convenient & familiar! Meanwhile, more unhappy than happy! Thank you Steve
Ain't easy living with someone who are emotionally manipulative and good at it everything is calculating........ to move on whatever decision you take you have stick to it.......
He isn‘t bringing you down! It’s You, You bring yourself down...producing kids in wrong relationship?! I love kids...but think about you... there are always 2 responsible for good or bad relationship!!! Establish first yourself before you build somebody else. Check yourself... may be you are 2 times doing something wrong?! Wish your kids good life and I wish you to work on yourself...🌺
Steve is the DEFINITION of a G! A real man ! It’s so dope and refreshing to just SEE it on my screen coming from a broken home but having hope knowing there are REAL MEN out here !
My mom was in a toxic relationship with my dad for so many years. I feel the same way bout had wanted them to just break it off so mom xud be happy. She ended up leaving and me and her moved out. She passed away a couple years later, I miss her so much and just wish she could have experienced being inlove one more time, the right way.
I left after 8 years. I know i was becoming someone i didnt know. 2 months afterwards. Meet the love of my life an so happy. Leave him right where he is an you an your children leave.
I pray that she gets the courage to walk to divorce lawyer’s office and file for a divorce. I pray that she runs away so this man can no longer have access to anything on her life. I pray that she gets help and happiness. Thank you for being strong! I appreciate and loves all of you lady. God be with y’all!
Thanks Steve for guiding these beautiful women in the right direction. And to live their best life. So their daughters want make the same darn mistake.
Wish I could talk to this lady. I cried watching this because it sounds like my exact story. Now I'm coming up on a year after leaving and I've never been more at peace in my life. I'm happy and my kids are happy! Dr. MLK said, "Faith in taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase". You deserve peace. It takes courage and taking the first step. God will work out the rest and show you a life that you deserve. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just hope this lady finds the peace she is looking for. My heart breaks for women who have to endure the disrespect of men. Coming from a single parent family myself, I will never forget how unhappy and abused my mother was growing up, but I will also never forget standing up for her and witnessing her finally muster the courage to make the brave choice and end her toxic marriage. She has flourished ever since.
I can't really comment on this because of the fact I was raised in a household where my mother and father my mother was always happy my father was happy six of us 6 kids yes I was taught how to love and respect a woman thank you Steve good show God bless
Kids WOULD RATHER BE FROM a broken home than TO LIVE on the broken home. -Steve Harvey- I agree ☝️. It feels like hell to live in a broken home. Even you have to fight for your whole life to get your own happiness. God Bless uncle Steve ❤️, you are a true inspiration.
Don't let your father stop you from living your life because you always have your heavenly father I can tell you that was such Aaha moment he just said that beautifully that was a moment from me. Just so damn powerful...
Your doing right. Get your education to better yourself and move on to a beautiful life and keep doing you. Make your present your past and make it a bright future.
Mr Harvey you are right on point. I wish I was part of this ...Daughter panel. I know I would have walked away a better woman taking with me the golden nuggets that were shared.
I grew up watching my mom go through domestic violence. When I married and my ex husband did the same to me, I saw it as normal because I saw my mom go through it I figured every married couple does, boy was I wrong. After very long 3 years I divorced him and took full custody of our two daughters and let me tell you the day I left him was like taking so much weight off my should. I had so much peace. After 4 years of not being together he went to rehab the last year. I saw him at my daughters 4 birthday and again I fell for his “I’m a changed person” conversation. We moved in and only 3 months in I started to see red flags and right when I was going to walk away I found out I was pregnant (I was on BC) sooooo the dumb person I was I stayed to see if he would straighten out and of coarse he didn’t. With my first two I went through horrible experiences while I was pregnant by his side and this third time I was not going to let it happen. I left when I was 4 months into the pregnancy. My daughters have never asked for him, never even mention of visiting him, that tells me I made the right decision. Plus I didn’t want my girls to grow up seeing a man treat you in such a way that they’ll allow it when they’re older.
Steve I thought I had picked the right man and after 23 years when he changed me for his secretary, 35 years younger than him, that's when I realized he was the wrong one all along. And at 48 it is so hard to start all over, dating is so different now, but I am strong and still believe in LOVE
Kids would rather be from a broken home
Than live in a broken home #Facts
Preach Steve !!!!!!
Thats an oxymoron and double speak. A broken home is a broken home.
Temi, I vouch for that. As a kid, I wish my mom left.
But why continuously subject yourself and kids to a toxic environment..like u said either way is broken so why not change the situation
@@candycesaturday7218 Right !!!!!!!!!!
And a toxic environment is very dangerous for raising kids.
AMEN. I'm one of them :/ my mom is still hanging around....i've been so frustrated, luckily they only had me and my little brother (we're grown now) because she couldn't get pregnant easily, she had to go through a lot to have us....but now, i'm just like, nothing more i can say or do now, to either of them (my mom and my dad)
I love how women are supporting each other even if it’s just by giving her tissues and placing a hand on her elbow
Yes, I really like that.
Right ???
Yesss, its beautiful
Love us woman❤️
Yes!! They reached out to her when she said she wasn't a bad person.

My children's father was the wrong one. I left him after 7 years of living in hell.
I never regret the day I left him.
You have to love yourself enough to leave.
Well said!

Now the problem is I feel like because we have been intimate that you know perhaps m cheap. I try to cheer myself up. And I don't know why I feel this way. If I could afford to move I would.
I stayed 22 yrs then eventually I got to the point Steve is telling you! Thank you Steve
Boyfriend for 12 years?!? That's a sign....he should have been your Husband not boyfriend....the kids will be happier with her being single
Hope Harris i don’t really think that’s The problem. The problem is the man. He wouldn’t necessarily be a better man just because you got a ring
I recognized that!
Thank god they didn’t get married it would have been worse

My grandfather used to say every closed eye ain't sleep when it comes to kids. Do not teach them it's ok to live in a broken home
Ebony Gorum oooh I love that saying. There is nothing like the wisdom of an elder. I’m writing that one down.
Right, kids are smart. They will pretend to sleep soon as you open their door and creep up with ears clinged to the door as soon as you close it just to listen to the argument.
Don't put your kids thru that. Even sleeping in a small apt. can be so much fun for the kids! Make it an adventure!

Do fun things, go to fun places, parks, pools etc. Now you're ALL free!
The first red flag is that, HE IS A BOY.
My advise, don't get children with a boy... get a man before declaring a relationship
🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
I made that mistake and I've been paying the price ever since. It's hell having to co-parent with him.
I was in a bad abusive relationship for just over two years and left after he thought he strangled me to death, I blacked out so he stopped. My daughter was only a few months and I left fearful and lost but God...
He sent me my angel not even 6mths after all this and now we’re married and been together 11yrs.
It’s hard to leave but you can, just be smart and don’t put you or your kids in harms way when you do,God bless

Yes our family was broken apart, but now 10 years later, I can see how much happier my parents are now that they have found other people for them. Yes it was really hard for my brother and I, but it’s better to see your parents separated and happy than to have them together in a broken home where no one is happy.
I wouldn’t trade their happiness for the world. And now as an 18 year old, I know more about a good vs. a bad relationship than most of my older friends. My parent’s divorce taught me a lot.

I felt this, i served 10 years in a broken marriage and fought my way out and I'm finally free!!!
Felicia Bye 10 years in and trying to do the same right now.
I really feel for her. Hit a like if you are feeling the same.
She's my niece...😢
I like this segment of the show. I just love the entire show and how he keeps it transparent. The best show of all time💯🙌🏾
This makes me so happy because I just left a bad relationship that only lasted a few months but it was hard to. I feel so much better and I didn’t want to waste too much time with him
SAMEEEE SIS. SELF LOVE AND WORTH COMES FIRST.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Danielle McGowan absolutely!! 🙌🏽
SPIRITUALLY I SEE THIS A WHOLE LOT IN THIS WORLD AND IT HURTS ME!!!# SHE IS CRYING ON THIS STAGE NOT JUST BECAUSE OF PAIN, BUT BECAUSE SHE IS GETTING READY TO LEAVE AND SHE REALIZES WHAT SHE HAS TO ENDURE TO DO THAT! A SHORT TERM LONLINESS AND HEARTACHE, IS BETTER THAN A LONG-TERM ILLNESS# GET YOUR SELVES TOGETHER QUEENS AND KINGS AND GET OUT!!! WEEPING MAY ENDURE FOR A NIGHT, BUT JOY COMES IN THE MORNING!!! 👼🙏😇💞👑🙇💁👊🔥
Steve always get straight to the point and loved that about him. He is a true essence of a man who trys to help woman find their way. He is very right about kids rather be in a happy home then an unpleasant one. When you see the red flags when dating dont get married to that man. Life is short so make yourself happy!
Steve is always on point. Kids wll be fine. He is 110 % right.
Thank you! I've bn dealing with a similar situation! Making excuses to stay, bc it's convenient & familiar! Meanwhile, more unhappy than happy! Thank you Steve
“And fly your ass from outta there “😂😂💕 I loveeeee Steve
Ain't easy living with someone who are emotionally manipulative and good at it everything is calculating........ to move on whatever decision you take you have stick to it.......
I wish I could hug her so bad ❤️🥺
My kids told me straight up the exact same thing. They would tell me kick dad to the curb
christi crenshaw , I had the same experience. Served him the papers...
I love you can see he's genuinely really passionate about his job helping these women to truly find happiness and love.
Hello ...
Facts! Wow. It’s crazy what mothers do for their children. I’m going to be one of them too ♥️
I like how he said kids would rather be from a broken home than live in a broken home #Breakout
He isn‘t bringing you down! It’s You, You bring yourself down...producing kids in wrong relationship?! I love kids...but think about you... there are always 2 responsible for good or bad relationship!!! Establish first yourself before you build somebody else. Check yourself... may be you are 2 times doing something wrong?! Wish your kids good life and I wish you to work on yourself...🌺
I don’t know how Steve does it, but he drops sooooo many gems during his answers! A pure gift!
I wanna give this lady a hug.
Oh Mary girl.... She even looks tired. Love you girl❤️
That’s what my mom had to decide but at the end of day her happiness matters . Yes as the child of a single mom this is so true
Mr Steve you are such a blessing to the world thanks very much for your inspirational words
Absolutely ! Steve couldn’t be more right! See those red flags 🚩 keep on walking ...running ! Life is to short ! Be happy 😃
Hello....
Even if no one new comes up who treats you better (11 years and counting), it's worth not having the heart ache every day.
Steve I stealing that one "stop collecting red flags what you saving them for? "
Steve is the man! I did 15 years I know her pain I was 18 when I got married I’m 32 now I was never happy
True. Don't stay because of the kids because oftentimes the kids know anyway.
Steve is the DEFINITION of a G! A real man ! It’s so dope and refreshing to just SEE it on my screen coming from a broken home but having hope knowing there are REAL MEN out here !
My mom was in a toxic relationship with my dad for so many years. I feel the same way bout had wanted them to just break it off so mom xud be happy. She ended up leaving and me and her moved out. She passed away a couple years later, I miss her so much and just wish she could have experienced being inlove one more time, the right way.
So sorry about this!
Rest in heavenly peace ( mama)
Sorry for loss, luv
I left after 8 years. I know i was becoming someone i didnt know. 2 months afterwards. Meet the love of my life an so happy. Leave him right where he is an you an your children leave.
I pray that she gets the courage to walk to divorce lawyer’s office and file for a divorce. I pray that she runs away so this man can no longer have access to anything on her life. I pray that she gets help and happiness.
Thank you for being strong! I appreciate and loves all of you lady.
God be with y’all!
Poor woman. I hope she finds the courage, strength & faith to move forward & out of the relationship.🙏🏽.
“You have to be unhappy in order to be happy” let that sink in a little
Wonderful to see these other ladies support her, Thank you Steve, Great Advice
Thanks Steve for guiding these beautiful women in the right direction. And to live their best life. So their daughters want make the same darn mistake.
When she said 'helll nooo' ...i felt that😤
love how supportive these other women are
Wish I could talk to this lady. I cried watching this because it sounds like my exact story. Now I'm coming up on a year after leaving and I've never been more at peace in my life. I'm happy and my kids are happy! Dr. MLK said, "Faith in taking the first step even when you can't see the whole staircase". You deserve peace. It takes courage and taking the first step. God will work out the rest and show you a life that you deserve. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I just hope this lady finds the peace she is looking for. My heart breaks for women who have to endure the disrespect of men. Coming from a single parent family myself, I will never forget how unhappy and abused my mother was growing up, but I will also never forget standing up for her and witnessing her finally muster the courage to make the brave choice and end her toxic marriage. She has flourished ever since.
I can't really comment on this because of the fact I was raised in a household where my mother and father my mother was always happy my father was happy six of us 6 kids yes I was taught how to love and respect a woman thank you Steve good show God bless
Kids WOULD RATHER BE
FROM
a broken home
than
TO LIVE
on the broken home.
-Steve Harvey-
I agree ☝️. It feels like hell to live in a broken home. Even you have to fight for your whole life to get your own happiness. God Bless uncle Steve ❤️, you are a true inspiration.
Leave girl! You WILL be fine! It sounds like you deserve so much better😘
Don't let your father stop you from living your life because you always have your heavenly father I can tell you that was such Aaha moment he just said that beautifully that was a moment from me. Just so damn powerful...
Uncle Steve I am 24 young man I am learning a lot from this .Thank you so much.
I wish i had watched this show five years ago i wish you were my dad, u inspire me steve
Sometimes it's better to start over than continue down the same path.
Always remember your children, are watching. Your boys are watching how you operate emotionally.
Your doing right. Get your education to better yourself and move on to a beautiful life and keep doing you. Make your present your past and make it a bright future.
She is so pretty. Prayers for her and all woman alike!!
Leaving the man does not mean he will not be in the kids lives
Amen and if he doesn't that is his decision.... has nothing to do with the woman.....
A man can be a bad partner and still be a great father
Nothing wrong with co parenting.
My parents did the same, living in a broken home broke our hearts in silence, it affected me in my relationships of being afraid I’d be my parents..
Mr Harvey you are right on point. I wish I was part of this ...Daughter panel. I know I would have walked away a better woman taking with me the golden nuggets that were shared.
I was in the same situation. I do understand I eventually left. Listen to Steve. Take your kids and go.
I grew up watching my mom go through domestic violence. When I married and my ex husband did the same to me, I saw it as normal because I saw my mom go through it I figured every married couple does, boy was I wrong. After very long 3 years I divorced him and took full custody of our two daughters and let me tell you the day I left him was like taking so much weight off my should. I had so much peace. After 4 years of not being together he went to rehab the last year. I saw him at my daughters 4 birthday and again I fell for his “I’m a changed person” conversation. We moved in and only 3 months in I started to see red flags and right when I was going to walk away I found out I was pregnant (I was on BC) sooooo the dumb person I was I stayed to see if he would straighten out and of coarse he didn’t. With my first two I went through horrible experiences while I was pregnant by his side and this third time I was not going to let it happen. I left when I was 4 months into the pregnancy. My daughters have never asked for him, never even mention of visiting him, that tells me I made the right decision. Plus I didn’t want my girls to grow up seeing a man treat you in such a way that they’ll allow it when they’re older.
2:00 why my heart melts when i see her puppy face??????
What Steve is saying is true. As I kid I wished my mom made that decision. We love our mothers so much
Honestly it affects us, so bad! Especially being the oldest child
Hello 👋
“Stop collecting red flags what are you saving them for” 🙏🏼
Steve I thought I had picked the right man and after 23 years when he changed me for his secretary, 35 years younger than him, that's when I realized he was the wrong one all along. And at 48 it is so hard to start all over, dating is so different now, but I am strong and still believe in LOVE
Good for You lady!!
Listen to Steve Sis, I’ve been there and I’m happy to be out of it 🙌🏾 HalleluYah
I love you Steve Harvey. Really. Thank you for what you do.
That so true Steve woman need to stand up for the right and live free then live with somebody who is nobody
