To me, it was like, it was a wake-up call for the fact that you will not, that this is not the normal situation that my twin brother experienced with anybody.
It's like, so I remember running out of the store with a bag and taking it and getting out of there because, but the secrecy was a source of additional pressure in the relationship because then I want to say,
I mean, it was, it was,
At first, I think I did a good job of going along and respecting our wishes.
I just think that when it came to the push and the shove and trying to stand up and trying to figure out, it was like a power balance of who's going to win this one, who's going to win that one.
And never did I ever lay my hands on her one time in the relationship.
I got smacked with a few diamond rings in my face.
And you could probably do an appraisal off my face because of the imprint.
But we went back and forth.
But it was because I didn't want to be a yes person to her.
I wanted to be honest.
And sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't work, depending on the mood she was in.
And so it continued, you know, pressure of that.
There was a point in when she was about five months pregnant, she didn't even go to the doctor and tell anybody because she didn't want a doctor to know.
So she's like just winging it herself.
And I said, don't you think you should go to the doctor?
And she's like,
no, I feel this one's good.
You know, trust me, I know.
