- 2:53especially if your girl's in the wrong, you have to double down and be
- 2:55on her side even more so, and be like, Yeah, that girl
- 2:58sounds terrible, she's a horrible person, but you're not wrong at all.
- 3:01I love you and you're the best. It is not your place to tell
- 3:06her she's wrong. Your place is to get on her team and fight that
- 3:08lady to the death. That's your job. You have some passion behind those
- 3:13words. You speak from experience. I'm telling you this is the way to
- 3:16succeed. Just be on your wife's side. You can tell when she's bending
- 3:20too. Don't give her advice, just step to the side.
