Are you sick and freaking tired? People take an advantage of you and pushing you around. Let's get after it. Nice skills aren't needy. God, there's a huge freaking difference between being needy and having needs. We so often don't want to bother people. We so don't want to say the things that we want, because we're so freaking worried that we're going to come across needy and we just got a stop. We have to acknowledge and understand the difference between being needy and that's something where you're looking to somebody else to fill you up. There's a big difference between being needy and having needs. So let's just stop putting them together and saying, oh, we can't be needy. No, that isn't true.

And I'm gonna break down.

I'm gonna actually tell you a real life story that happened literally last week, guys. So I get COVID. And because I have a COVID, my husband doesn't want to come near me because if we're both sick, then the company literally stores out. So he starts sleeping in another room. So one day goes, two day goes.

The only interaction I have with him is on FaceTime.

So I'm in one bedroom, he's sleeping now that

the FaceTime is good morning, base. sleeping in another room. So one day goes, two day goes. The only interaction I have with him

is on FaceTime. So I'm in one bedroom, he's sleeping in another. The FaceTime is, good morning baby, love you, bye. Then good night baby, love you, bye. Now we agreed on this. It's time got on, more and more. I was speaking to him less and less and less. And then what happens? He has to leave. He's got shrimp. So I go, well, it doesn't matter. You got COVID, what are you going to do about it?

I know that I really my thing with my husband is I have... happens he has to leave. He's got shrimp. So I go well, it doesn't matter, you got

Covid, what are you going to do about it? I know that I really my thing with my husband is I have to connect with him, I have to have the emotion, I have to touch. But because I've got Covid, I don't have to touch. So now he goes away and he goes away for a week. Now when he comes back guys, I have to go on a trip. So we still haven't actually seen each other. Flesh to flesh, skin to skin, and it ended up being three weeks. And so I start feeling that I need to be with him. I need his attention. I need the skin, the touch. But I don't want to be needy. I don't want to be needy. So I'm just like, well, you don't want to be needy, Lisa.

So just keep going. It's fine. You got COVID. What do you expect? You had the trip. You had the trip. So I made, guys, I had all the rational things in my mind. I was emotionally sober. I wasn't getting myself worked out. I was like, Lisa, this is just how life is. And this is what you've chosen. You've chosen not to sleep in the same room. You've chosen for him to go on a business trip.

You've chosen to go on a trip. It's all a freaking choice.

So why am I needy? life is and this is what you've chosen, you've chosen not to sleep in the same room, you've chosen for him to go on a business trip, you've chosen to go on a trip, it's all a freaking

choice. So why am I needy? It's okay. So I go on this trip. Now I've been swallowing that feeling of what I need. I haven't spoken. Sound familiar? You're swallowing your need. You don't speak up.

You don't want to be needy because you're a good girl and we all know that good girls shouldn't

quite unquote be needy because you're a good girl and we all know the good girls shouldn't quite unquote be needy. Such bullshit. Three weeks past, the needs that I have, I don't speak out loud. Now I come back. Mima has been texting each other. Oh my god, I don't have COVID anymore. Baby, you're home. We're so excited. We're texting each other.

Can't wait to see you.

Oh my God.

And then I walk in.

Now he's like, look, whatever you do, babe,

let's not work.

When you come in, let's embrace each other. And I was like, oh my God, he's reading my mind. I don't know. saying what I need, he's literally reading my mind.

So I come home from the trip and I walk in
