“And I’m just not willing to do that.”;

Whitney then admitted: “I was bamboozled. This is the person that you told me you wanted.”;
She then spoke to listeners and said how she hadn’t “changed for a man”; but instead changed how she spoke to him.
Josh then chimed in and explained how he had noticed how Whitney had “calmed down”; a lot when in confrontational situations, such as past arguments with her ex.
Whitney admitted that she was “very hot-headed”; in her relationship, adding how “with time I understood the power of less is more”;.
She then praised her ex and said: “He actually did calm me down and help me tame my emotions.”;
“He taught me silence,”; she added.
