My parents got divorced early on really
early on and my father essentially
[5]
started his new life without me and my
mother was my best friend growing up but,
[12]
you know without a father figure in the
house it was lonely at times and she
[15]
worked long hours which now I'm thinking
may have led to some communication
[19]
issues I have in relationships and my
girlfriend actually got me to message my
[25]
half-sister online who didn't know about
me for 18 years and she messaged me back
[31]
and it was just so wonderful and now I'm
thinking maybe I should see if I can get
[37]
in touch with him but I just that would
that would devastate my mom you know she
[42]
was the one that raised me but I don't
know what do you think Steve okay I see
[46]
you shaking your head it's not gonna
jeopardize anything it's not gonna
[50]
change anything between you and your
mother and I know this firsthand I
[55]
didn't really have my dad full-time into
my life until I was 16 right they were
[59]
moving to Atlanta and they said hey
brother good want you to move with us
[62]
because we really want to bring his
family together now my mind I've been
[67]
living in Cleveland my whole life I've
been living with my mom it's been me and
[70]
my mom that's it in the back of my mind
I'm like no it's gonna hurt my mom but
[75]
at 16 I knew that's what I needed as a
man I needed that connection with him
[81]
right so so i 100% stand by you going to
open up that conversation and it's not
[88]
gonna change anything between you and
your mother it's not she's gonna feel
[91]
this some type of way my mom felt the
type of way when I left oh why are you
