0:00
the biggest thing when you're looking
0:01
for someone to live that long-term life
0:03
with aspire to be with someone who wants
0:06
the role not just want the wedding right
0:09
i found a woman who I knew wanted to be
0:11
a wife So when me being the wedding too
0:16
think this could be true or
0:19
there's duality in everything But when
0:22
you come into it wanting to be a spouse
0:24
you embrace the change Everything Kadine
0:27
went through when she was gaining weight
0:28
through pregnancy I loved it When she
0:30
was losing weight after I loved it When
0:31
she has her attitudes through PMS I love
0:33
it Yeah Do we argue about it yeah we
0:36
argue about it But for me it's like a
0:38
Rubik's cube right how can I solve this
0:40
equation today my wife's not in the best
0:42
space Yeah What can I do to make sure
0:44
that by the end of the day she's in a
0:46
better space cuz if if you're not going
0:48
to do that for your spouse what else you
0:49
going to do be angry sit back and just
0:51
be like I her and no like that Why
0:54
choose that person so for me it was like
0:56
yo whatever changes come with that I'm
0:58
dealing with it You know what would you
0:59
say is the most recent thing that you've
1:01
learned about Kadine or noticed
1:04
something new oh she just started Well
1:08
she came back into her professional bag
1:10
And I realized that I loved the person
1:12
that was dream chasing more than I love
1:14
the wife More than I love the mom Like
1:18
if if I'm being honest it became super
1:20
sexy to me Yeah when she had to do
1:23
outside of the house Oh you going to
1:25
meet with your acting coach oh you going
1:26
to work out oh you got lines to study
1:29
And then it it just felt like I I got my
1:31
partner back cuz at 18 that's what I
1:33
fell in love with That's another
1:34
narrative that I want to put the kibash
1:36
on So many people put the put the uh
1:38
this narrative out there that black men
1:40
for example don't want a black woman
1:43
that has her own We're intimidated by
1:45
that I'm here to tell you that that's
1:47
not the case I second that bro You know
1:49
what I'm saying like come on man Yo yo
1:52
torch you in on this All right Okay PB
1:55
PB Okay All right Okay There is nothing
2:00
like having a partner to when you don't
2:02
want to do some and your wife say I
2:05
got it and you could be like this
2:07
sexy Like I'm so serious Like
2:11
when when I first retired from the NFL I
2:13
told this story all the time I didn't
2:14
know how we was going to make money
2:15
first But she was like "Y'all could do
2:17
makeup." I was like "Bet what you need
2:18
to do is go down to MAC get a job so
2:20
that we can get insurance She was like
2:21
"Bet." Turned her ring inside went to
2:23
get the paper I'm like "That's my homie
2:25
right there." Like I actually took the
2:27
ring off put it in the jewelry box I
2:29
walked to the bus stop and I was I put
2:31
my all black on you know did my face and
2:33
I said "All right I'm going to go to the
2:34
mall and give me a job." Like what do we
2:35
have what do we got to what do we have
2:37
to do right How like how much that fills
2:40
you up as a man when you know like my my
2:43
dog right here could and she's a
2:46
beautiful woman We were 27 when I got
