Loni’s story is even deeper when you consider the pressure black ppl put on each other to keep a good job with benefits, instead of chasing “some dream” that doesn’t pay the bills.

Also, Adrienne is so right. I got my drivers license at 29 and I was having nightmares about driving.

I will never get tired of hearing Loni's story

I'm from London, in my 30s, and can't drive either. I feel you, Adrienne. I want to learn one day.

[michellepenaescobar]

Adrienne, I was the same way. Trust me when you become a mom you will get over that fear real quick :)

[ShaydahandSaharavlogs]

I was so scared of driving that I didn't get my license until after I was married and was 8 months pregnant for the reason Adrienne says she wants to learn - for my child. Doing it and driving is what took the fear away for me.

Loni talks about this in her book . Must read!
She's one wise woman

29 and learning to drive. Been learning for almost a year (if you don’t count the time I learned with a stick when I was 18). I put up a front for others like it doesn’t bother me at all, and for the most part it doesn’t, but some times it does. I’m not giving up on building my confidence on the road though. Thanks for sharing Adrienne. It’s always good to be reminded I’m not alone in this driving anxiety.

The comments here about Adrienne are mean. It's okay to not know how to drive as an adult. Everybody starts things at there own pace. Some early, some later in life. People just have anxiety and phobias about driving and that's fine.

Some people go there whole lives without ever getting there high school diploma or GED. That's something we should really encourage everyone to be doing.

Adrienne literally looks like a baby doll, so cute. Love this Convo, all great points.

[amilllion]

Ugh, I did the same thing Garcell did, but it wasn’t our 1st date, the guy to me to a gross diner, then asked me to answer a riddle if I can’t guess it correctly I should pay the next date! I’m like it’s ok boo boo I’ll pay the $25 bill this date 😩! Never again will I save a dusty

[Sarah-zgiq]

It’s insane how much Ade and I are the same in things. The Hashimoto part the driving part, the panic attacks, being family oriented. I really appreciate that she shared the driving part, it’s my insecurity at the moment really want to get rid of the fear.

I will miss you
I have been following you on Romania on youtube for many years.
I learned a lot from you, but especially about people, diversity, racism, etc. (there are not many blacks, Asians, Hispanics people . in Romania)
Thank you for everything and I will miss you very much 😭💜💜

[GreyAce]

Seeing this now and knowing A just got her license made my heart melt!! So proud of her for being so vulnerable here. She did it🥹💕

[jennyprasad]

Adrienne is me when it comes to driving alone on freeway

[dhanameetsnao]

I really love this episode. They are showing a positive attitude and I learned a lot from them. ^-^

I'm 21 and from New York like Adrienne and can barely drive either. This motivates me to get my drivers licenses this summer. (However in NYC it's common for teenagers and even adults to not know how to drive. Only a few of my friends actually have licenses 😭)

[yahainHotPink]

Adrienne, you have my sympathies. Driving is scary. I am a Brooklynite who learned to drive in my 20s. Hated it then, hate it still. I don't own a car and don't live in New York City. I hope to never be forced to drive because I would be petrified.

I remember a guy asked me out on a date to a fancy (kind of the expensive side) Korean BBQ restaurant. The date went completely well until the check came. And he straight up asked the waiter to split the check. And I just looked at him, and he was just like, "what? did you think I could pay for the whole thing myself?" and the check only came back to be $120. And I paid for my half, went home, and never spoke to him again. And note, I even ordered water just to be considerate. Him wanting to split it wasnt the problem. The fact that he asked me to go on this date without making it clear me that he wanted to split the check from the beginning because of how expensive it is, thats a complete red flag, and just shows she does not know how to properly communicate with others.

[cindys]

If he wanted her to pay for 1/2, he should've made that clear from the door - esp. if he invited HER.

[AmiraKrim]

Well, i did step out of my comfort zone in 2020 when i faced 200 people in a public speaking competition.
Before that, i was the most timid, shy person ever, i can't believe how different i am from the person i was 2 years ago.
