Lord this was confirmation. I just left my home two days ago do to the same reasons as this and all of a sudden this video pops up.....nothing but God. I lost who I was as a woman, a independent woman and now it's time I do what's best for me. If I can encourage any women in the comment section today. Know that you are enough and NO WOMAN will ever compare to you and NEVER EVER allow a man to make you feel this way. You are beautifully and wonderfully made. Do you, be you, and most of all LOVE YOU enough to know when it's time to take out the garbage. We as women got to know our worth and I don't mean having a man shower you with the finer things in life but a man that feeds your soul. A man that motivates you, that encourage you, that is real with you, that does everything in his power to see your frowns turn upside down and MOST IMPORTANTLY A MAN THAT PRAYS NOT ONLY FOR YOU BUT WITH YOU. Women we have the power now let's take it back. Praying for my sister's because I AM my sister's keeper. God bless you all
Ashley Capri yes my story too stay strong I was in this situation a few years ago.
Ashley Capri I too am going through the exact same thing as we speak down to the T. And I'm lost as to what to do. 3 years, how do you walk away and move on and say enough is enough? I have no life outside him.. So confused..
nitta9427 I feel the same but I had to remind myself that I had an independent life before him and I will have one after him. I don't know if you believe in the man up above but He has help me to push through and keep the faith. I'm in my prayer closet repeatedly and it really helps me. You also have to be real with yourself and ask the questions you don't want to ask yourself. Like is it worth my happiness. If I don't leave where will I be in the next year or so etc.. YOU CAN DO IT. We all can if we just believe in the power we as women have and not just that but God first most importantly. Praying for you. Trust that God will make a way out of no way.
autria robinson Thank you! God will make a way like He has done so many times before. God bless you.
Ashley Capri I agree but sometimes they manipulate you so bad to the point were u don't think or feel like u have a reason to live
This is a 71 yr old woman speaking. Always follow your instincts.
Why am I just now seeing this? Now THIS is how you create a visual for a record. She went beyond a music video and gave us a cinematic experience
Be sure to watch the 2 follow-up visuals: "Used To" and "In the Name of Love".
Who else didn't want this to end??? lol 💖
Nikkirenae8 P. Someone said she announced there are three parts and an album coming march!
THE INDUSTRY REALLY SLEPT ON LeTOYA.
She's great but instead of writing her own songs she needs someone to write her the perfect song cause this ain't it the video was better than the song
They use these singers just because they don't write their own music I enjoyed all of it
When she said “you don’t value what you have because you don’t know what tf you have” ohhhh my soul LETOYA‼️😩😩
Should've been a damn movie! Didn't want it to end! They both can act!
kdbyers
Did you see part 2 and 3
Songs are not as good, but at least it gave us a end.
This video made my tears stop. I supported this man when his own family treated him like crap, but he had the nerve to cheat. The fight scene was an argument we had months ago word for word. This video scared me at how much it was mirroring my life. 3 years of aggravating up and downs. I'm so done. Just praying to get back to me and God.
The Lord will heal you and bless you with a man that you deserve. I hate hearing how good women get played by guys who aint shit and the whole world turn their backs on them. But, you decide not to give up on them or treat them like the others do, and they still end up shitting on you. He will get his Karma
Apryl Lewis it gets easier & every day you'll get a bit stronger.....I'm proud of you loving yourself enough to demand better....
each day is a step to the you that is supposed to be. Take the lesson and use it to be great. May you heal in a powerful way and be an example for those around you.
They don't make videos like this anymore. A movie that speaks what that artist was trying to portray. Thank you so much for your hard work everyone!
Her husband should of played dude role....I can't believe her husband really cheated on her...this lady is so many levels of talented and beautiful 💔
Was anyone else really excited about the "to be continued"..😁
kianna gamble Ikr I got into it like a mini film. Song is dope and acting was on point, it had me all in my feelings. Hopefully she comes through soon with the next one. 😉
Part2 gonna show Latoya with her new man and this nigga gonna be still living in a empty house cooking pancakes crying and shit and his so called best friend gonna drop his ass for another nigga that she was fucking anyway
Who is listening to this at 2020😍😍😍😍😍and I still love every single line of it...
Mad respect for Ex Professional football player Thomas Q. Jones on making the transition to acting. Letoya has always been beautiful and awesome at what she does. Kudos to both💪🏿
The key phrase "I don't wanna change you I want you to be the person you were when I first met you". Honeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey boo boo kittyyyyyyyy! They come as knights in shining armors in the beginning then turn into a devil in disguise. LOL I'm not a jealous woman by any stretch of the imagination but some men will create situations to force you to feel some kinda way and then blame you for feeling that way, but take no responsibility at all. This would be such a good movie. Love LeToya! She's a great actress!
Exactly and then when we leave or do the same thing to them they act like we done kilt their mother!🧐🤔
Why didn’t she get a Grammy for this???? She’s gorgeous and talented
Who is still team LeToya Luckett in 2020😍🥰🥰😘
this why I don't get emotional when I argue. I'm not gonna let no fool manipulate me. as far as I'm concerned I never have anything to loose that i cant bring back to my own life. I'm fine. paid. single. and powerful. nobody can take that away from me.
Just Ash damn. im just learning to stay calm lmao im on anger management. Love is a curse and blessing i tell u that 😂
A woman knows another woman. A man may not always see it, but we do. Trust yourself. Trust the vibe you're getting.
*@**7:23** - **7:38** WHEN LETOYA BELTS, OOOOH THAT'S HOW I FEEL*
*I GOT BACK TO LIFE , I GOTTA GET BACK TO ME, BACK TO SEARCHING MY WORTH AND LOVING ME*
*LETOYA LUCKETT IS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥*
That was a narcissist man. I was in a relationship like that and they make you question yourself. Thanks Latoya for that video
Dope visual haven't seen a video this entertaining with a backstory in a long time
Of Course I have seen Lemonade but you can't compare that to this Beyonce basically combined her videos and made a Musical Film this video is only a few minutes long reminds of the 90s or early 2000's videos
+TJ Hunter it's a 3 part 1 part 8mins...and beyonce can't compare to letoya people let's not do this shit...cause let's face it beyonce can't act...she cannot pull this off.
TJ Hunter came Her from watching Her in the Preachers Child. letoya Better Actor Than Beyonce
5 years later best decision I EVER made🙌🏿❤️ choose yourself first!
Thank you for letting me know that I'm not alone when It comes to feeling that weird energy. I was married for over 30 years and I'm filing for divorce this year. My Was-Band screwed his best friend which was a female and he also grew up with her too. He was my first and only love, but it's time to move on and grow up. This video is my story too. Thank you! ❤🙌🏼❤
Hello,how are u?Similar story here.known him 17 years,married 5years.separating now.but 2 children involved.its tough but we'll be fine!
Did anyone peep how cold his "friend" was to Letoya? 👀
Did you notice they were on a date at the same place LeToya's birthday party was? O.o
Nicky Hardin yep! She handled it classy! Idk if I would've been able to handle it like her! Lol
The roses in the empty house is symbolic. He came in with a single rose and teddy bear... indicating each time he messed up or they fought he’d return with a rose and everything would be better. Now she’s gone and left the roses on the floor😭 hence the last shot when he left the bear and new rose on the floor with it . Wow .
2023, here and listening....what an amazing Discovery ❤️
People sleeping on her she's very beautiful and talented
actually nobody ever slept on letoya llf ppl been listening to her music
Yo the way Cynthia was touching all on him like that irked my soul man!!!!
I would have grimmed her and him right then and there. They both would have felt my stare...hard. 😒
Irked my soul? I would have started with the Q&A straight out and by the time I would be done THEY BOTH would know who I was...and they both would have been dismissed (That heifer KNEW what she was doing)
#don'tdisrespectifyoudon'twanttobedismissed
Souful_of_Love I would have grabbed him so quick and looked at her like bitch whaat move ya hands honey
I've said it before and I will say it again this video is by far undervalued. The message that it delivers is crystal I wish more women would listen to the voice within instead of convincing ourselves that it's not the case, it's not happening even when the signs are very clear
Who else tryna get back to life/back to reality in 2020 🤦🏽♀️👩🏽⚖🙋🏽♀️💆🏽♀️
All women have that "intuition" and it's never wrong
Yep! Some men are so good at convincing women that they are just imagining things
if your sister is touching you like that, y'all need Jesus and some therapy
What If You Had A Guy Friend That You Called A Brother And He's Touching You The Same Way In Front Of Your Man (What Would You Expect Your Man To Do In The Same Situation?) Please Finesse Your Dialogue To Me Ingrid.
james hayden first of all I have several homies! I wouldn't allow them to touch me like that in front of my man or if no one's around. It's disrespectful on both ends very inappropriate.
Toya does not realize how many lives she touches with her music, this song is a confirmation
❤️❤️❤️ Trust that female intuition. These men are out here trying to get more cake they deserve.
is it me or is LETOYA. a natural beauty she's the cool as home girl and bad ass girl next door and bombshell all in one
VONI BABY she is the PERFECT WOMAN.....nothing like manufactured artificial things we call women now-a-days
this video was so dope I felt like I watch a 9 min movie woah
Nicole Hill I was waiting for an obsessed like moment where Letoya fights her.
Nicole Hill when I first saw this trailer I thought it was a movie but it was a video instead now I wish it was a movie LOL.
Nicole Hill she left his ass with nothing ha ha ha you don't play with Destiny lol
The video... Whew chiiiiiile! An entire movie! Well done girl! I've been missing the storytelling aspect of RnB.
I love LeToya. She showed so much range here!
Ladies trust your intuition. You are not always crazy. Some men are ignorant of the fact but this man knew what he was doing. This video is therapy for me since I lost my partner a month now due to him and his female friend making me uncomfortable and jealous unnecessarily. He never said I should respect them both but he told me I am trippin. I got up and leave since I knew he may need space to see his friend instead of me in the way. It hurts like hell but staying would ultimately be the death of me. Walk away while you have the strength to. Every woman is worth fighting for.
I'm glad you had the self-respect to walk away. Short term pain for long term gain. I hope things are going well for you, 13 months down the track. 💐
When he said I think you should show me and her a little respect I almost went through this phone and whooped his ass for her 😡👊🏾
Her voice is everything !! It’s so strong and soulful 😍😍😍
Letoya can sing an act, when she hits the screen in her videos they are absolutely stellar!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Love her she overcame alot she worked hard and made a name for herself when people doubted her , I'm a original destiny's child fan and love the group but Letoya showed u no matter what, she was going to accomplish her dream and sing despite the break up from destiny's child. I love her strength
Leem Wills yes when Destiny 's child first came our. look at no no and bills. she's there
Me too, @for Sisters only concert & Midtown Music Festival back in 99' as a teenager
I don't think it's necessary the guy. Everyone is like he cheated, but the real issue here is that most guys don't understand that when a female has a feeling about someone , it most likely comes out to be true. But they always think that us females are overreacting & being extra when that is not the case. Sometimes guys think it's just friendly , but their "friend" always wants something more than that. He may not see that at the moment, but he will soon & his girl won't be there anymore because he realized too late. Otherwise , LeToya did a great job on this project 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Nia Davis I agree. I had the same relationship with my best friend, too much. I can understand how it's easy to not realize that you're crossing lines. But Cynthia means business
Who else is watching this and thinking wow this really happened in her real life!Sad Sad Sad!As good black women....we need to know our worth!Letoya you will rise above the pain!So yeah get back to life.......your life!We love you Sis!
It's really something, almost every woman has picked up this vibe before, and we're usually right.
It's just GOD telling you that you have no business being together! we don't want to hear that because we in our feelings but, i'd rather have someone who truly loves, adore and respect me!
Keva Anderson
Well said, My True Love bent over backwards for Me until the day the Lord needed him 3 years ago..
Like she said at the end of the argument..."every time we're together, all you wanna do is argue, I feel like you like this shit". And yes they do! They love arguing with you, attempting to make you feel bad bcus they've been out doing wrong. So when they leave upset, slip & fall n2 someone else's bed, in their minds they're somehow justified. I know all to well about the transference of emotion (learned about it n Psych class bk n the day in college), or maybe I'm just keen to the bullshit!
So right girl. Sad part its chicks out here like that will play the role like the best
friend!!
girl thank you. I have been wondering how easily they are able to do that. I am going to read up on it, they will find anything to justify why they do what they do to you.
I lost it when he said show me and her respect!!!! Oooooo guys like this know EXACTLY what they're doing. Ugggh
This will HANDS down forever be one of my favorite songs by her 💙
One minute into the video and I already hit the thumbs up button. That haircut is fire!
When he said “ I think you should show me and her a little more respect” 😩 CZcams needs a gif section
Wooow that's epic. The whole story is on point. I went through practically the same thing and boy the way my ex made me think I was crazy because I saw signs, flirting with his 'best friend' who was a woman on top of that she was married with 2 kids!!! And I was having all the signs and even proof of their messages. Anyway to all women out there when your gut feeling/instinct is telling you something odd about your man. Believe it! ❤️
This music video brought tears to my eyes. Everything that was shown in the video is exactly how one of my relationships ended. Great lyrics and acting.💯
Take that Destiny's Child!!!!!!! You go Toya! Glad you back! Not anymore is still my shit to this day.
K Hyde and after party tears, Destiny's Child was good too writing's on the wall is a classic album they were a good group
autria robinson they were a good group, but you know they did 2 of the original group dirty. They thought that was going to be the end of Toya as if she wouldnt be able to stand on her own. But what was meant for bad, turned out to be a blessing in disquise.
K Hyde I feel you true they all turned out to be talented and the way Toya and Latavia were treated was wrong and should have been handled better.
I swear I'm feeling this video, and its message… Men try to manipulate us, with that "you're tripping, or you're over reacting… They invalidate our feelings with that bs... any man that does that, is doing dirt behind closed doors… and isn't man enough to come out and say…
so they find something small to blow up about, blame you for the problem… then move on to the next chick… Then they always come back around when they realize the grass isn't greener on the other side… But for most women, its too late… GREAT VIDEO LETOYA! YOU DID YOUR THING WITH THIS ONE
LeToya baaaaabbbbbyyyyy.... This right here is what you call a double threat. She can blow and her acting skills... I hope she comes out with a strong movie role
They slept on Letoya!! This sister is very talented! Great song and excellent acting!❤❤
Does she act too? Because yo, the intensity in that fight scene!!!
Nicole Akinyi yes maam. VH1's single ladies, Rosewood, a few things. She's a great actress. Google her acting credits.
Nicole Akinyi yes that's why her music had to be on the back burner for a while.
When I first clicked on this video and saw that it was 8 minutes long, I was like "uuuuugh I'm definitely not watching this whole thing." Then it ended and I was like "wait, it's already over? I want more!!!!!" got me all in my feelings.
She turned out to be a very good actress. A natural…
This girl deserves so much credit for her career and contributions to this genre. So polished, so professional but yet so raw at the same time. I hope you’re reading this someday Letoya, if you are just know you’re amazing and you have a HUGE fan in the UK. xx
Cynthia was doing the most, and Omar acting clueless, dude you suppose to check her. Crazy thing is, a lot of guys act just like Omar, and end up losing a awesome woman. Le toya released Part 2, "Used to" it is dope as well.
Zeeks The Gemini where's part 3!!!?!?!!!! That's the great question lol I need the puzzles to be put together
Trust it will be out soon , lol I Credited for this song Dashaun Leldevone Newby
The argument in the middle of this video! I can def relate!! Blaming me making it seem like I'm the problem when the whole time he's the fuckin problem! You're not trying to change him just want him to be the same person he was when you first met him! I swear it's not worth it! Losing yourself as a woman cause of shit like this.. Ima just be quiet bringing flashbacks🙄😂🤦🏽♀️.. I'm so glad I'm back to myself tho cause honestly I lost myself after my situation.. but I'm def back 2 my life now❤️ love this song by leToya!
Amy Baylor I would say get out of the situation now before things get worse! It's going to hurt for a while but things will eventually get better.
One thing I love the most about her is after that whole thing with Destiny 's child she came back and demanded her respect. Of course they wanted to shadow her beautiful voice in the background.
I want this to be a movie or tv show so bad 😊 I love LeToya acting. I kept this video on repeat for the past hour 🤣
When he said "have some respect me and her" biiiiiitch I would've raised hell
I would have ended the relationship. You say that to your "friend" who was pushing up on you in front of me. *Not* to me.

Somebody give her a movie or a scripted series with this man. I would 100% watch.
Rachael Daley she will be starring in a biopic movie about Dionne Warwick I think it will be released this year
Letoya Luckett is a very good actress and a good singer too.
LeToya is bad! Beautiful, talented actress and one helluva singer! You go girl! Keep killin it!
Then they end up being in a relationship with the same one they told you don't worry about, we just friends...smh.
Yeah that shit crazy but so true, ex told me they were just friends but you sent half naked pics, well I got the last laugh told her all he wanted to do was smash owell I was half nicca beat her for $60 to lmao🤣🤣🤣🤣
Always give them a chance to be. Then the fools will realise they weren't meant to be.
This should have been made into a movie!!!! straight up!!!
Don't sleep on LeToya both singing and actingI love LeToya. Ladies this NARCISSIM at its finest!
6 years ago damnn, still loving this one ❤
This should be on the fifty shades soundtrack
Kween jade the storyline doesn't coordinate with each other to be on there.
It should... Its symbolic to problems in a relationship. It would have been great.
damn. LeToya got me in my feelings. I need to look at my relationship a LOT closer
Girl I did examine mines n I let it go for something far better with no regrets.. "Especially" the fight scene it's a rerun... smh
This entire album was slept on it was and STILLis so good! ♥️🔥
this song needs to be appreciated on a good sound system that hits....
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!! IT SHOWS THE DISRESPECT A MAN WILL DO RIGHT IN YOUR FACE. LADIES NEVER LET YOUR MAN PUT A FRIEND BEFORE YOU AND YOUR FEELINGS.
Oh honey!! I battle this on the regular except it's not a friend, its any obscure relative out the backside of anywhere that I hv to compete with. If they show up, I'm instantly worthless to him. It's the sickest thing you've ever seen!!
Adriene Finklea or they will talk about another woman right in front of u learning to value myself
Goosebumps. So much passion, emotion and anger. Love it.
Wow… this is a whole movie. 🍿 And I loved every second.
MANNN SHE PUT HER ALL IN THIS VIDEO!!! I FELT THIS
that argument at the end is literally my life right now
me too girl, tired of putting up with these other bitches, his bffs agrrr
For Real!
Letoya looks great, great song.
" maybe if you get out of your fucking phone, you'll realize wtf you have" preach toya
That natural beat face though!.
I miss this music girl we need u back out here! 2023 is crazy out here where is part two! Girl come back to life back to reality! We miss u!!! 😂❤❤❤❤❤
I wanna see these 2 in a movie or a series as a love interest!
People don't value relationships untill it's curtains close. Nice song/video, great acting as well
The argument scene is actually how it goes! Too many memories.
I would be dumping him the minute he said “you need to show some respect to me and my friend”
The Audacity!
letoya's acting skills tho! 🙌🙌💯
Adaiah Todd yeah she did a great job!
she came a long way!! ❤
Yea she bad.
Thats real spit
Boom yes! She is an amazing actress.
