This girl's got your back. Here's Trina.

Hey guys. So it's been a long time since I did a 20 questions episode. Let me just preface this

by saying, if you get triggered by the truth, you're on the wrong podcast, okay? Go find

something else to listen to. So without further ado, let's get into number one. How can I genuinely apologize to my ex and show her that my intentions behind the lies were good without pressuring her to get back together?

Okay, well, you know what? The first thing I have to say here is, let's be real.

Let's be real. You did not lie because your intentions were good, homie,

me, homie, okay? You lied because it suited you. Good intentions don't require deception.

In life, either you have character and integrity, or you lie and then you make a bunch of excuses

for it when you get caught, which in my opinion

is extremely immature and such a turnoff. There is nothing grosser than realizing you're dating

a fucking liar. And then to know that someone is trying to tell you that these were good lies,

these were well-intentioned lies? Oh yeah, that's gonna go over just peachy. Here's the thing.

When it comes to lies, they always catch up to you. And another good thing about telling the truth

is, guess what? You'll never have to struggle with keeping your story straight. So no, I'm not gonna

tell you how you can convince her of this bullshit. Okay, number two, why is it that any time I ask for a breakup, he apologizes, but will never change or make amends? Okay, so what I'm confused about is, uh, why the hell are you asking? You gotta stop asking for a breakup.

This isn't like going through the McDonald's drive-thru and placing an order for a hamburger and fries.

Okay? Can I get a large fries and a Big Mac? No, you don't ask. You don't ask someone who treats you like

crap if it's okay to break up and as though you need permission.

You don't need to do that.
