"We live in a society where everyone thinks they know more than everyone else. But the truth is, each of us has our own life to live and our own race to run. Stop allowing people on social media to make you uncomfortable about how you choose to live your life. Some of the same ladies loudly judging in the comments have their own issues to deal with, yet they act like they’re perfect. My sister, if you’re happy, then forget what anyone else thinks. If you feel Im playing. Just show them ur husband phone number. You go cry for their chance."
