Episode 327: Applying Pressure

This week on What's A Good Guy?, we're talking about the art — and the risk — of applying pressure when you're pursuing someone.

Is there a fine line between showing genuine interest and begging for attention? Can consistency still look desperate in the wrong context?

The guys open up about how they each "applied pressure" to win over their significant other, what worked, what backfired, and where they draw the line between confidence and chasing.

We're diving into real stories, real lessons, and real questions: • When is it okay to go the extra mile? • Is "begging" always a bad thing? • And most importantly — are you applying pressure… or just pressing your luck?

[00:06:23] That when I try to like Remember all that happened I'm be like damn So I That's my way of uh Coming prepared Uh But because this is two weeks old I realize there's not a thorn anymore So that's just like a moment of life Where you sometimes you just gotta let shit go And they don't bother But I'm still bringing it up Um Rosebud thorn Uh My rose for this week Uh I'll just use last week

[00:06:51] I snapped myself out of doing some dumb shit But I still ended up doing the dumb shit But Why you always talking about doing some dumb shit? Cause it don't mean dumb shit Black man taking account of it I just think you know LaShaw you know better So that's how I say yo Okay That's dumb shit Uh Bud Looking forward to having a traveling partner Mmm Yeah She paying? Huh? She paying? I was thinking dog My time is now

[00:07:21] Um But nah Uh Yeah I got Uh I was done I was looking forward to that Um They ain't gonna laugh They ain't gonna laugh My thorn is the concept of applying pressure How is that a thorn? Of what that mean Oh And find a balance between not doing too much and Cause I feel like applying pressure is too close to begging Like you ever You ever see that white man in the middle of Manhattan with the sign?

[00:07:51] The dude with the sign The dude with the sign Yeah that's That's what I That's begging you? Or that's how it feels when you apply pressure Love me please When you apply pressure Really? Sometimes You feel that way like When Alright Alright Matter of fact I wanna publicly say this Because he show us mad love Shout out to my nigga Scrap Shout out to Scrap Shout out to Scrap For real for real Scrap The pod drop at 8 He watching my 801 And he'll let me know They got Starbucks in his head As you watching that shit

[00:08:21] We love people like that man So shout out to Scrap Shout out to insurance niggas out there Shout out to my insurance niggas Shout out to Scrap You need insurance? It's not for sale Um Nah but Scrap had posted something the other day I don't know if Scrap remember But Scrap has said something to the extent of like I don't know apply pressure I just like shit to be mutual And I kinda In the week of all of that happening All of those The applying pressure concept came up

[00:08:51] I was like yeah I think What gets confused With the concept of applying pressure Who you applying this pressure to? To the baddie If it's a Alright cool Let me give you a wild example That came to my mind On why I think applying pressure is stupid Okay In a sense In a sense After we done record And I say yo guys Let's all go outside And try to move this building one inch Move the building? Yeah

[00:09:21] We all just Push Push The building The building To get it to move One inch Apply the pressure Let's apply all the force that we can So And that And that's why I feel like Don can't move the building The concept I feel like sometimes The concept of applying pressure If you're applying pressure To an immovable force Yeah It's pointless You look You know how many people Go drive by and look What are you thinking? I'm probably sitting there and watch

[00:09:51] They probably think we stretching You know what I'm saying? So So are you And I have to ask Are you saying that Some situations are immovable? I believe so How so? Like what's confirming that for you? Alright, whoa Let me not do that Not for you But just what's confirming that for you I'm gonna ask you a question after that No, no, go ahead Go ahead I'll wait So like say He's the easiest one Dang That nigga is sick of us

[00:10:20] Say Dane trying to talk to a girl I seen it Dane really I'm telling you Joby's snitching Joby's snitching Joby's snitching Unprovoked Dane is really interested in this girl Dane want her badly And he's applying pressure But you know You can kinda get the gist of She don't really feel what you want Yeah Okay I think Dane looks crazy To keep applying pressure To this said person

[00:10:50] Even though he wants Her badly I don't think you should apply pressure To somebody who's not swing Whether even if they don't communicate They're not interested or not You could kinda tell Off of a mutual You're talking about like You triple texting and all that I wanna agree If it's not verbal Right? I do If it Well Yeah, if it's verbal I can understand If it's not verbal I think there's always Space To For you to interpret

[00:11:19] And make the decision on your own If you should continue to apply pressure I feel like you know When you feel crazy about something Maybe Maybe you just see it sometimes though I think the whole thing also depends on How much you're exerting True, true, true, true, right? True, true, true, true, true, right? True, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true, true. Cause pressure And we all know Cause we know We know how pressure goes There's low pressure There's medium pressure There's high pressure If Dane is in his low pressure stage Of applying pressure to said individual He can be able to say to himself Like yo, I ain't even doing that much right now And maybe that's why

[00:11:48] It may not seem like So he should turn it up a little bit more Maybe he can push a little bit more To see and like be able to Confirm or deny Like am I even making any pressure? You ask if he can move the building an inch Almost impossible Not almost Actually impossible to do Because of how it's built in You can make a girl smile You can A girl will tell you Not to come into a fucking space Well what happened to the other? You remember they always say There's a thin line between Uh, harassment There's only a picture

[00:12:18] There's only a picture I don't even want to see them on What's that seat on? I'm not applying no more pressure You know what I'm saying? I feel you We about to go to Burgers and Bottles, right? I believe you Have a good time Are we going as a team? Are we sure? We should Okay, cool Let's get a sprinter I'm not doing that That was last June Cause you know Oh, definitely Conversations change You know what I mean? Oh, oh And we're all gonna see The guys We update us With the guys running down Yup Yup

[00:12:48] And we're all gonna see They face The curve The curve in the face The uncomfortable conversation The uncomfortable You know what I'm saying? With the Don Julio breath Yup Yup Yup Yup And we're gonna say Oh, homie's trying to apply pressure On the girl he wants You feel me? So it's like We also get that second hand embarrassment too Woo Would it be Would he be applying pressure to a girl That he had just He's just seen in the spot for the first time? Or somebody that he's been like DM Well we would

[00:13:17] We would know that Because I think that makes a difference It gives a nigga a different kind of confidence I think when He been to show you DM for a couple weeks Or a couple months or whatever And then he see her out And then he run down And now we observe How's the conversation going in the DM though? That's what I'm saying It depends on the person that's saying the DM Cause now if you still pull up And you talking to yourself in the DM I'm not gonna lie to you You gotta go to jail brother You gotta lock niggas like that up But if she over there engaging with something That's different though Making him feel like there's a Yeah, well see But see that's the mutual

[00:13:46] The undertone consent In like Yeah The engagement back and forth Yeah, yeah But sometimes Us as humans We love the attention sometimes Yeah I think women are the The cream of the crop And I honestly think Men should stay away from those type of women Right I love that I love the Yeah In this example What is Dane's way of applying pressure? Is it him buying drinks? Is it him buying Oh Yo Is he buying flowers? Oh Oh shit Is he buying material objects

[00:14:15] That she can take pictures of? Cause you know Then you have to say Is she benefiting from the pressure Even though she ain't really looking forward to taking this any further than that? That's a good That's a good point Right? Cause a nigga think he applying pressure thinking Oh here this is working I can change her mind Not even He don't even think he has to change her mind She's accepting of the pressure Oh so she fuck with me

[00:14:45] But she has no She has no No foresight She only sees the moment This is it This is it Give me more Pause Yeah Oh He's a freak In a sense I'm saying No diddy In a sense I'm saying She's opened the door And allowed In this example Dane to come in Occupy space, time, money I'm talking dinner Maybe oh you wanna go to dinner I'm out here yo Send her flowers You know what I'm saying She's accepting the Venus of Fleur flowers Right?

[00:15:15] Cause women love shit like that And then She knows She tell her homegirl Or there's another nigga That she really interested in That's really sponsored Communicate that with him She in the passenger seat with him Mmhmm He got the big body You know what I'm saying Pause That I don't care what you I can't fix it It's over You know what I'm saying But that So she's not communicating That to Dane Because in his head He feel like I don't know Maybe it's a competition in me He feel like yo She accepting on my shit I got a chance too

[00:15:46] You know what I'm saying So he keeps He might go harder now He might see the The Mercedes Benz light picture Right? I love showing that shit off That was a competition I have a competition now Oh fuck So now He pull up in the That too How you feel about that competition? I bow out I mean Well let me not Let me not You know what I will generally I will generally bow out Is there an exception to the rule? It has to be Probably There is probably somewhere

[00:16:15] The world of your dreams You better take the other nigga out the equation How do you do it? How do you How do you How do you How do you How do you How do you Oh you never bring up the nigga? You You obviously know she Now you Now you're falling for her my nigga You know she fucked with another nigga What That's why I feel like Nick

[00:16:44] That's why I say I generally You generally bow out But bow out Bow out Bow out Bow out Bow out That's why I said It depends on who And how early You notice yourself You know what I'm saying But then Cause I remember I was talking I was talking to a girl And um A woman right now Cause we gotta A woman Yeah facts facts Fact she was well over the age of 28 Yeah we got her We got her She was 28 She was over 28 For her ID Um

[00:17:14] And when we first When we first started talking Um I let it be known I'm I'm talking to multiple people An honest man ladies Yeah Clear and to the point He is Volunteer that information Yes I want I want to Yup Not offer Hey my name is LaShawn I'm talking to three other women I got managers Yeah yeah yeah yeah Thank you for being the runner up alright Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah So it was kinda like Are you seeing anybody Yeah I'm talking to three other people You said three? But they not you Queen

[00:17:45] He's a player But That's a talking and dating That's a last week Um So But that didn't stop her from Coming over Right So Wait for your man She should've fall harder I know what you're doing bro Um But The applying pressure in that sense I don't think that's applying pressure Wait did you know that she Did she tell

[00:18:15] You didn't reveal Did she tell you about her Uh She told me she was recently Talking to somebody Talking Yeah So You would never ask that question though would you? Yeah I would I would He make it clear he wanna know Yeah Would you ask the question? Yeah I'm talking about early Maybe not I wouldn't ask I ain't gonna lie I wouldn't ask You wouldn't want I wouldn't ask I would not I would not put myself in a position to be like I wouldn't ask you to tell me that I would not put myself in a position to be like I'm not gonna lie to you

[00:18:51] It's not my That's the applying pressure Huh That's it I'm with it That's the applying pressure I'm okay with that Proceed I'm talking about when you feel like the force is immovable Like you literally So let me give you an example Let me give you an example Let me give you an example Are you gonna use a building again though? Huh? You gonna use a building? No no no we not gonna use Zoom We gonna use Dane again Okay shout out to Dane Right? Uh Dane gonna laugh bro

[00:19:23] Dane gonna laugh Uh Mother's Day Mother's Day come Mother's Day is approaching right? We ain't actually powerful Mother's Day So shout out to all the mothers in the world Happy belated to my man You know I'm shouting y'all out You know what I'm saying You know what I'm saying And Dane is too Cause he's your mother's favorite lover But you know what I'm saying He doesn't Let's say Let's say Mother's Day is approaching Dane is talking Or was talking Oh no Dane got a thing He got a thing for a mother? He got a thing for a mother

[00:19:53] And Dane is thinking to himself Um Should I send something to her? For Mother's Day? In the midst of him doing that He comes to the revelation of Nah Is this Am I sending it for the right reasons? Right? Am I sending it just to say Happy Mother's Day? Or is this low key Me applying pressure? I mean It's always a little bit of both I think a little bit of both

[00:20:22] I think a little bit of both No I see See that's That's where The trick The I think The debate comes in The intent behind it Will then impact how he feels Once the flowers is received Oh thanks I mean her response also Is a part of it Yeah So that's why That's why That's why I think Intention matters Right? So what I would tell Dane Or told myself Or told myself Yo take

[00:20:53] Take the result Of her receiving the flowers Out of it You know we talk about manipulation a lot on this pod I think you gotta pick your spots and shit like this Bro This is not fucking basketball But you do bro I'm not gonna lie to you my nigga Yo If I'm good at that right side corner I'm using that I'm going to get a screen Bring the big man Let me cook I'm getting an overall screen nigga How about pulling man You gotta find your spots So yes A holiday's coming up And the girl I'm talking to Got a seed

[00:21:23] Bring the little nigga too What he like Yo I respect Dane for doing that He gotta pick his spots And that's the You could kill two birds with one stone He can apply pressure And saying like yo I would do this for you on any holiday Valentine's Christmas Thanksgiving Your birthday Anniversary Now the thing The thing about my full control Now you're Do you keep up this energy? After you get her You can't wait for it You can't wait for more opportunities After you get her After you get her Oh yeah That's when I feel like that's when you feel the safest to do it

[00:21:53] Yeah he could've He could've just sent flowers And just been Oh because I'm a good person Now we go we go we go He could've just sent flowers And said I'm a good person Here yo It's mother's day I'm sending flowers All the mothers That's just who he is right But he's not In his head I'm gonna be pressing Oh it's the flower In his head He's doing it because Shit I want her to know that I appreciate her And I want her to know that I want to do this on a more consistent basis too So you're doing this to move up in the ranks Nigga it don't even gotta be nobody around

[00:22:22] It don't We can remove competition out of the picture too Just saying That is a good form of applying pressure Is using and picking your spots and knowing that today is a perfect opportunity for me to step up into What if What if What if Dane knows Hypothetically That This ain't gonna change How she feel about it How she feel And he still does it Then he still does it Then he's actually Okay Okay Does that make you a fool

[00:22:50] He's wasting motion because he could put that energy To another heavy mother To another heavy mother No See I wasn't I'm not allowed to say He could though I was gonna say I was gonna say He could put that energy into another way in Another way in Like what? But why would he Why would he look so way in if If she's not letting him in? That's why That's why I think the applying pressure thing Is crazy Because now you look like a burglar I ain't gonna lie bro It's like a 5'2 nigga trying to back down Shaq Nigga it's not gonna work bro Just stop Yeah

[00:23:19] He could try it and face up though He could look at him Be fucking serious bro He don't look stupid bro I said 5'2 That's on my head bro No I get what y'all saying though I do He does kinda look odd Like yo she just said But this is where it comes from clarity If she hard cuts it Like Nigga this is what it is You're doing too much You're making me uncomfortable Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah There's no other way in That ain't happening today I'd rather Just wanna protect me I'd rather just avoid that altogether Like yo Me too Me too Me too It gets to the point where it's like I feel like you're okay

[00:23:48] I don't think you're catching the signs Cause they're cause they're alright You wanna have that conversation now I'm mad I'm here now You applying pressure or you thirsty?

[00:30:44] That was beautiful And it makes me realize that I wasn't applying pressure I ain't no lie I went from the DMs To like you know Playfully flirting To the first link was very Normal and casual Like to me the way I see Applying pressure is being consistent And like letting you know that I'm here And taking like Taking a liking to your interest And the things that you care about

[00:31:13] And pouring into those things Like to me that's applying pressure I see your ball I fuck with it I wish I would've had an opportunity like that Cause that was wavy but That Yeah yeah but like You could also not apply pressure By not doing the things that I mentioned Right? You could meet a girl Flirt with her And then not go nowhere And I think I was in that stage too Like I was doing a lot of like In and out in and out And actually I called out for it Like yo you just You just gonna call me pretty all the time Like that shit

[00:31:43] It actually turned me off I was tight And then I spun the block Like I'm not a pussy And I can say that So that was my turning point And that's when I decided to apply right Real pressure And be more Be more active as a There is a I think Not even a small window There is a window of interest Like that Yeah so if I apply this pressure I know my success rate is higher than most Yo I think I speak from the person That is uncertain of the success rate

[00:32:12] And has the hezi Like damn If I do this They gonna turn the They gonna turn the mellow next day Yeah like I don't wanna You know? And they don't jump Now you just looking like Like it's bobblehead night at the garden Like I don't wanna do that You feel me? Yeah nah And I always appreciate the window still Yeah the window I don't know Maybe I opened the window That's how much pressure I had to probably reapply Cause sometimes A girl tell you that Yo You doing all that Pump faking or whatever Like it's over Yeah it's clit It can be clit Yeah

[00:39:11] I'd rather not lie So Yeah he was like yo bro That really happened I'm like yeah he was like yo bro Sometimes You gotta stay away from the soda and nuggets It's true You know that too Beer sippers Yo Nigga called them beer sippers Alright brother hold on Slow down Slow down Slow down brother Slow down brother Slow down brother It's low on calories brother Stick to the people that drink cold 45s brother

[00:39:41] He was like He was like yo you gotta You gotta you know you gotta stay away from the soda and nuggets Because they don't really appreciate what you're doing Or they don't even know They'll not accept it They'll not accept it So I took that advice for what it was And that's what I'm saying Sometimes you You gotta apply all the pressure you want If the force is in Inuitable Yeah then you look You look crazy regardless And that's that's one of my That's how I stay in my head a lot Like yo you look crazy That's why I will always say

[00:40:11] If you ever hear me say yo Almost did some dumb shit Nine times out of ten It ain't really dumb shit I just think I look crazy That's how I associate Some dumb shit Yeah cause I was talking to Dana about Um some other dumb shit And Dana agreed As a friend and as a fellow man bro I think my advice in this moment To you would be to Forget about looking dumb bro And like completely erase that out of your mind He gotta look at himself in the mirror bro

[00:40:40] No listen to me speak Because I think Yes sir I think it's irrelevant In when you If you're if you are an optimist I know I'm the optimist But if you are an optimist about this If you've sat and taken your time to pray about it There's some optimism behind that I don't know a pessimist that Really has that much faith Like you're not a pessimist No I'm not So if in your In your view of who you are as a person And what you believe God is going to grant you Eventually right At the end of that Please

[00:41:10] If you're listening to Kojo Yes that means That at the end of this There is a woman at the end of this Who is everything that you dreamed of But that does not mean that the path there is Roses and sunflowers bro Sometimes It is Sometimes It's

[00:41:40] That's so crazy That you hear this thing I said that with my head though I didn't say it out loud That's my fault That's my fault That's my fault That's my fault

[00:42:10] The tip of the iceberg I think LA's thing is like Cause that's forever That's through the whole relationship You gotta apply pressure bro To your queen You might have to apply You will have to apply pressure to your girl The woman that you put on Wait wait wait wait I don't I don't want you to Think that I'm not Or I'm above it It's the reaction to the pressure No so he can understand the joke Oh I will read it Nah it's a picture It's the Shit Oh tough

[00:42:39] You kidding You kidding I saw that before Yeah that's why That's why I had to Jog in memory But I'm more Focused in what I'm saying to you right now On your reaction to applying pressure And not seeing Yeah we out here trying to move the building We saying it's not moving That shit might have moved a centimeter We don't know You know what I'm saying We just don't know We don't know the progress we're making

[00:43:06] If we're only focused on The result of the pressure Yeah You know what I'm saying We should focus on our acts Our intention And our goals Until it's made clear to you That this is not for you Okay and it doesn't And the clarity doesn't have to be directly from the person That's what I Who can it be from? You can observe something For what it is You talking about the situation So not the person? Yeah

[00:43:36] But then that means you would play a role in that too Yeah It's not just her Oh listen listen listen Accountability Okay Yeah But then a part of taking accountability Like we always talk about Is doing the right thing once you're held accountable Absolutely So if I hold myself accountable Like I I've been applying pressure I haven't really been seeing anything And don't feel mutual It's a little one sided I've Talked to my My friend groups about it Got some honest feedback

[00:44:05] And I still continue to apply pressure Then it's like Alright LaShawn We You gotta hold yourself accountable here Hmm Okay Interesting that we said that In this whole conversation I don't think we talked about If us as men apply pressure to women Do they have to return the pressure? It has to be reciprocated

[00:44:35] Dane apply pressure Right? Dane plans a date Okay That's pressure? Okay And she Okay okay He makes intentions to see her Yes yes yes Right? And every Yo! Dane! Snotty nose? No more You can't let the person go slide You can't let the person go slide You can't let anybody else be doing bro Niggas That nigga fucking allergies Fucking him up Um Dane Dane creates this whole itinerary

[00:45:04] He goes He tries to see her Right? Uh huh I'm glad that nigga start walling out bro Alright Mixed with two serious things Mixed with six Continue Oh He tries to make time to see her She's always Not available

[00:45:33] She's not available Right? He comes He comes To the pod on Saturday He's like Yo bro We been talking I been trying to get to know this girl Blah blah blah I ain't really You know And we all say yo bro Maybe she not interested Maybe she just so flat out wouldn't tell you Or maybe she just too busy to date Or maybe she not in the right space to date Or she got a nigga Or she got a nigga Could be bad woman too Or she could be a bad person Either way

[00:46:02] I said bad woman but that's what we're saying Oh who's it? Um And Dane Dane hears what we say He go home He think about it He process it And then Tuesday he tries again That's Dane applying pressure still right? Yeah But he looks stupid doing that She's already showed you Without verbally saying I'm not interested How many dates You gonna plan That she not available for? How many Wait that confirms that she not interested though? I would think so Dang

[00:46:31] It depends I ain't gonna front If we talking about a schedule You tell me oh I'm available this day And I make a plan You don't show up? Nigga you know how big a date is I ain't gonna lie We done No it's fine to cut that off Yeah we done bro I ain't gonna front it It's over with I wouldn't say I wouldn't say you bugging But it doesn't confirm That she doesn't wanna fuck with you It doesn't confirm that She has to tell you that She has to tell me what? Joe is the same person Who said what? Who would say oh Um Damn what am I going with?

[00:47:01] People make time For what they wanna do I believe that Right? They Joe is literally arguing a point Before the pod That If we Oh yeah Yeah I don't wanna reveal that Cause that's off pod Women with kids Nah you know what? I'll let y'all cook I'll let y'all cook I'm gonna clip that part That's crazy Leaving that as a clip I am That'd be good No but I

[00:47:31] But you would say I don't wanna cross those two Cause I wanna stay with this No cause I'm saying You would say You're saying that Just because They're a mom Doesn't mean they don't have time Or that's the only thing That's making them busy Right? Cause a woman could get a job And be more busy Way busy than a woman Right? But There is some sort of communication That comes with that Hey here's my schedule Let me I won't have time this time But I can make time for this Right? So I've talked to a woman Who would tell me Oh my I'm free every other weekend

[00:48:01] But this weekend I already made plans with my friends Uh huh Maybe in two more weeks Uh huh We could do Yeah But That doesn't serve you Huh? That doesn't serve you No no no no no It didn't serve you It did? It did? Okay In four weeks But we ain't never gonna get no ass I wish they could go in your face But don't worry In four weeks We can set up some time

[00:48:29] Cool at least I know there's a set up But if it's just awesome I'll see Blah blah blah But yo you dealing with a person Who time travels And I'm still trying to make time for you Aight Come on I ain't gonna lie I ain't gonna lie I'm not gonna lie With a short With a schedule like that You might as well fuck with somebody that's getting deployed My God Bro Bro The nigga said he time travels He's right though He's right though But And you guys do have a point Mmm

[00:48:58] And I don't wanna step on y'all point I just wanna also say There is still no confirmation That she is not interested But sometimes you don't need the verbal confirmation So You feel it You get you have an idea In the situation Because She can tell the story later down on You felt like you was doing too much I'm gonna dub this I do I do have I write that Without the confirmation Yeah Alright then I've grown from that I'm just letting you know Oh so then why do you have to grow from that? Because it's a mentality You don't trust your instinct? I ain't gonna lie I ain't gonna lie That's not a bad thing

[00:49:27] But you too optimistic bro Like I ain't gonna front you want It's not even about optimism It's about what's fair is fair She can go and tell the story later down the line Like no I never I like this nigga I just was bad with time Oh so she's not good communicating Yeah She didn't Party let me cook Party let me cook Cause I'm cooking here Look look look Because she could go tell that story Now I really I liked him I was interested in him I just was in a space where I couldn't fucking Communication? I couldn't communicate You remember You said this on a pod That shorty Uh Came back Weeks later Yeah he said that okay

[00:49:57] I wasn't tripping Yeah he said that on a pod That shorty came back weeks later To say like yo I was fucking I couldn't communicate back then Like that I felt like he was moving too fast Oh she was in the space Right She that You made a decision She ain't fucking with me The whole time she was She just Was you know what I mean? You didn't confirm that But you made a decision that was Seemed confirmed Like oh yeah she don't fuck me That's why she spent a block on you Cause she was fucking with you She couldn't wait to see your selfie bro That's what I be trying to say Oh he went too far

[00:50:26] He went too far He went too far He went too far You was cooking and you went too far my man You saw you saw the add different seasoners You saw the add different seasoners You know what I mean? You gonna burn the chicken You gonna burn the chicken You know what I mean? Nah I understand That's what I mean That's what I mean There was a There's no confirmation in that decision And saying So would you flat Okay so would you keep going though? So would you flat out say Yo do you fuck with me? So I can stop applying pressure? That's how you confirm That's how you can get a confirmation Damn Now I think I'm being Damn nigga you mad at

[00:50:56] Refuge 30 Now also even though I said that You might have to deal with somebody Who might not be honest And might lie to you Like yeah I'm fucking with you Which would be a dumb decision Yeah I'm fucking with you I'm fucking with you Yeah I'm fuck with your energy Yeah you can hear that That's how they sound That's how they sound bro Oh y'all make me sick Anyway And then she'll come back And still be doing the same dumb shit Then I guess you can sit there And say well this doesn't serve me But will you ever be able to Truly confirm she don't fuck with you? Do you need the 100% confirmation though? You don't need it

[00:51:26] Okay You don't That's what I'm saying I can understand y'all movements But y'all cannot definitively say She wasn't fucking with me so I left Alright do you give yourself My phone cut you off Do you give yourself a time period Where it's like alright I'm gonna I'm gonna have This is really gonna be my joint In like three months or whatever And if you still applying the pressure Nothing's happening Do you then actually like yo My advice to all men Apply pressure for two months straight What? 60 days 60 days

[00:51:55] Regardless of result And see where it gets you But dictate it Dictate the amount of pressure And the power of the pressure Based off of what you are receiving In reaction In a season Based off the season as well So keep it low if it deserves to be low If you feel like she fucking with you Go medium Or high If she don't react well to the high Bring it back medium And stay there If she's not reacting well to the medium Stay low And when do you turn the stove off Joe?

[00:52:24] Turn the stove off after that 60th day So the 61st day The 61st day If she ain't ready to give you children Dict What? You want to hear? I'm joking I know you know you know you know you know you They went too far But at the 60th day I think two months is a good enough time Where you can realize Okay eight weeks have passed Um Alright like There's something here You could feel the groove You know what I'm saying Y'all might Y'all could plan a trip You know what I'm saying You know what I mean? What season did you Apply pressure to your shorty by the way? I just wanna Season? Yeah like what's it?
