In this episode of The Twisted Truth, Corey Wesley explores the complex emotions surrounding funeral attendance, questioning whether it stems from love or guilt. He reflects on the societal norms that prioritize funerals over supporting loved ones during their lives, emphasizing the importance of presence and emotional labor.

Takeaways from This Episode:

• Don’t wait until it’s too late. Call, visit, check in—now.

And as Corey signs off: “Tell someone you love them… say something while they're alive, not when they're gone.” 💐

In this episode of The Twisted Truth, Corey Wesley dives into the ever-popular topic of toxic relationships—but with a twist. Are you actually in a toxic relationship, or are you just dealing with a flawed human being?

Society loves to slap the toxic label on every bad habit, but at what point do we stop diagnosing our partners, friends, and co-workers as walking red flags and start questioning whether we might be part of the problem too?

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Emotional Manipulation vs. Needing Space – Is the silent treatment toxic, or do they just need a break from your nonsense?
• Gaslighting vs. Forgetfulness – Are they truly manipulating you, or do they just have a bad memory?
• Selfishness vs. Bad Etiquette – That friend who never buys a drink… toxic or just cheap?
• Constant Criticism vs. Tough Love – Are they helping you improve or just tearing you down?
• Unpredictability vs. a Bad Day – Is their mood toxic, or are they just having a Monday?

The Twisted Truth?

Not every bad trait is a dealbreaker, and not every tough relationship is toxic. The real challenge is knowing when to walk away and when to grab a mirror. Because sometimes, what we call toxicity is just a reflection of what we need to work on ourselves.
