I love that Nate is so considerate to his mama, asking if she wants food before he starts ! What a cutie 🥰 WING STOP RANCH IS EVERYTHING!!!!

I was in a DV relationship for 5 long years and the crazy part is I didn't even know it was DV...I never thought I would escape but by the grace of GOD I am free from that and now I work at a shelter for victims of DV/SA. I can help them because I was once there.. Thanks for sharing your story Nate love you

I'm so impressed with you, Nate. That was a very personal story to share. Unfortunately some people feel shame, even after they're out of the potentially dangerous relationship. When I was in my early twenties, my boyfriend, at the time, and I had an argument in my apartment. He got angry and pushed me to the floor. I broke things off immediately. I told my mother, who made it sound like it was my fault. I actually half believed that after she said it, then I told my dad ( dad and I were very close), he went ballistic and started for the door. I stopped him. Violence is never the answer, even when people who love us, want to protect us. I told dad I was alright, it was settled. We left it at that.......but I was shocked to learn, several years later, that one of my older sisters was in an abusive relationship. Again I went to dad, because this time, my sister didn't live in the same province (I'm Canadian), I knew dad couldn't touch the guy, but he called my sister and got the guy on the phone. My father had one of the deepest voices I have ever heard and when he got angry, he could put the fear of God in people. So he talked to that guy and told him if he ever hit my sister again, he would kill him. Dad wouldn't hurt a fly, but the guy didn't know that. Anyway, my sister ended her relationship. But seriously, Nate, although I don't know you and my opinion doesn't matter, I am truly proud of you for speaking out and shining a light on domestic violence. I'm honored to be a part of your BGA crew.🤗🤗

I had 11 yrs of that crap.. I really lost myself during that time. Been single 6 yrs and I found myself again and completely healed from that horrible life event… THANK YOU FOR SHARING !!!! This could really help someone

Your experience needs to be spoken about because there's people who need to hear it!!!💕

Being emotional doesn’t mean you’re not over it. You’re just reliving something berry traumatic that happened. It’s hard to talk about. I totally understand! You’re a survivor!! 💙💙

This was awesome! I love that you were able to gather the strength to leave and to share your story. That last straw for you was that sweet mama of yours! You're a good man, honey! So proud of you!💗💗💗

I’m so glad I started watching you more often this passed 2-3 weeks. This episode hit home for me as well. Glad you spoke about it and now out that toxic relationship. Keep doing you and keep building your brand. Thank you for just being you and sharing such a deep moment of you life. I love the way you and your mommy have a blessed connection especially when you start by asking her to eat with you. Many more Blessings to you Nathen. 🙏🏽🥰

This… this is really what I needed… thank you❤️🙏🏽 soooo sooo happy you’re using your platform to bring awareness to DV.. the sign I needed to see💙

Hey Nate, thank you so much for sharing your story. I was in an abusive relationship for 10 years and it's scary because it gets to a point where they stop apologizing and turn everything around on you. At that point it gets scarier. They literally change your own opinions of yourself and makes you feel insane. Someone spoke out to me about DV and it opened my eyes. I grew up hearing people say that love and marriage was hard and a lot of work so I thought it was normal. I've found true love now and it's honestly a lot easier than I thought. I'm so sorry you ever went through that but know your story will reach someone and help make them aware and for that I thank you

With all you've been through, yet always choosing to smile and be brave, I salute you for having a wonderful heart. Also, am thankful for Mama Appetite for raising you to be a wonderful, beautiful person inside and out ♥

You are truly an amazing human. I love how you ask mama if she wants some before you get started. Do some more mukbangs with her! ✨❤️

Hey Nate. Your brave to share your story with us. Everything you stated being blind to the fact that you think you love someone. I’m glad that your past that situation because it’s unhealthy and sometimes you loose yourself. I love you and continue to stay true to yourself ❤️❤️

*Brilliant!! ♡ ♡ This video is PERFECT! Not only the food look amazing but it’s the way it’s all set out.*

Nate the amount of respect I now have for you has quadrupled I'm sorry you went through this you are brave and thanx for sharing

I’m so glad that you had the strength to stand firm and put yourself 1st to end that toxic shit. This story needed to be addressed to give others strength. Love you beautiful ♥️ and hope his crazy narcissist ass got the help he desperately needed‼️

PTSD is real I had to get help and was on medication. Talking helps not only others, but the victim as well. It takes a big weight off your shoulders and frees you. I felt dumb, guilty, and embarrassed to admit I was in a DV marriage for 27 years. Nate don't be embarrassed to get help for PTSD. Now I feel empowered and strong, and I'll never let anyone hurt me again. I'll be praying for your healing mijo. Nate PTSD never goes away you can just learn to avoid triggers and to cope successfully. Love you Nate God bless you and momma Appitite. 🙏❤😘🥰

Thank you so much Nate for sharing your story, I recently 2 days ago got out of an abusive, manipulating, narcissistic relationship with a man I was engaged to, I feel so at peace and I hope your story reaches everyone who needs to hear it. Thank you again ❤️

Nate I’m sorry you experienced DV with ur ex💔I’m glad u got out safe and with your family by your side❣️ You r brave to speak on it to share with others and open the path to further healing. Thank for sharing your story.

Thank you for sharing your experience with a DV person. I went through something similar to yours but mine was physical abuse. I am now happily married to my knight in shining armor, my best friend and partner in crime for the last 21 yrs. and many more.

Thank you for sharing your story. I can totally relate. Your story brought me back to the time I spent on an abusive relationship! The only crappy thing, is that it took me 14 years to get out of it!

There was a time in my life I went through something traumatic and some of it I can't remember for the life of me I think I blocked that part out to protect myself. So glad you made it through this ❤

Omg! Thank you for sharing your story! You are such an amazing person! I was in a very toxic and verbally abusive relationship with my sons father. There were times that it got physical. The excuses I made were "It's the drugs not him. He loves me and would never do anything to hurt me or our son". Let me tell you it was one fight that got me to wake up and smell the coffee. Like you, my life was flashing before my eyes and all I did was think of my son. At that moment I said "enough is enough I deserve better, we deserve better!!! My son was 5 yrs old when we left. He's turning 18 yrs old this yr and he is a kind, loving respectful young man. No regrets and so thankful I made that decision. God bless you Nate! 🙏🏼 ❤

I am so proud of you for telling your story and for getting out! You are amazing..

Hi Nate! Not a big commenter but your story hit me in more than ways than one! Thanks for sharing your story. Your bravery for breaking free from your abuser is soo admirable 💙💛

Omg Nate! I hope I can meet you one day❤️ I started following you when I was at my lowest during the start of quarantine you made my life so much better .

Thank you for sharing this experience. It shows so much growth and strength on your part to be so publicly vulnerable. Sending all the love and good vibes to you!

So glad your no longer in that toxic relationship anymore unfortunately it is too common. So happy you found the courage to leave!! Nobody deserves that.

I don't know if this is considered being abusive but my ex used to tell me that he was only with me because he felt bad for me and that nobody would ever want me. He told me that if I didn't lose weight and go to the gym with him he was gonna leave me. He was telling me how to live my life and he managed my money even though we didn't live together telling me what I couldn't and couldn't buy. He started to use drugs and I didn't approve of that, I told him I was going to leave him if he didn't stop and he said go ahead ain't nobody want you anyways. I sticked around for 2 years till I said enough is enough. He is now in jail. After years of looking for the right one I am now happily married to the love of my life who has shown how a woman is supposed to be treated and loved, we have a sweet baby boy. One thing I've learned Is NEVER SETTLE FOR LESS.

I was in a very abusive violent marriage over 10 years and I thank God that me and my children made it out alive 💙🙏🏽Oh and #drums 😉

Thank you for sharing your life, and it will help someone. I appreciate you so much for being so raw and open ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

hi Nate! I just recently discovered you, by recent I meant not more than three days ago. The first thing I noticed about your channel is the food, it was when you ate Jollibee. That was the first video I saw of you. I then noticed how you pray before eating. Then how you treat your mama with respect as well as your guests. Now, you shared your story with the thought of opening others minds and helping them leave that situation you were once in. Because of all those reasons, I felt joy in my heart that I have met another good soul. Like, the world is full of negativities and there are still people like you who is kind and brings joy to people as well as a lesson in life. I am glad youtube did its thing and recommended your channel to me. No regrets at all. I wish you and your family a continuous blessings and happiness in life Nate.

Can’t believe how early i am , love your videos♥️♥️ never had wing stop and you make it look so yummy 🤤🤤

I've been in a relationship like this,to this day some of my memories are still fussy. I agree its really hard to talk about. I'm glad someone understands what I've been through hearing your story. We are so blessed to have made it out from those relationships. Your awesome 🥰🥰

You are my new favorite KZfaqr! I love your authenticity and your loving personality! It’s so refreshing to see. Keep doing you 😇💙💙💙💙

Watching your video and hearing your story brought me to tears bc I went threw almost the same situation and it was so hard to realize that my life was in danger. Thank you for sharing your story❤

You are awesome for sharing your story, Nate! It is like a therapy session to say things out loud sometimes! And the more you talk about it, the more it helps. So glad you and Mama Appetite were okay during that last encounter. Here's hoping too that somehow that man gets the help he needs to he does not keep perpetuating the same behavior on future people!

Thank God for your Mom!!! Trust and believe,he was going to "get" you back for that previous incident at the other hotel!!! Thank God for your family period! That's why he made arrangements to go further away from your family so it would be harder for them to get to you!!! Trust me,he was going to do something to harm you. I'm happy your eyes were opened!!! Thank you for your story.

Hi Nate, your story is very touching, and I'm glad you got away from that toxic relationship. No one deserves to be abused or attacked. You've moved on, even though it was very hard. I can see how it really affected you, and I feel for you. You love and respect your mom and sister, and any man who is like that, is usually a good man. Many people are in the same situation. I pray they're set free. 🙏 🙏

Boo I'm sure your mom saved your life that night! No joke.. she is your angel!👼💜💙💜

I’ve never had a relationship that dealt with DV, but I did have two of them tell me they were my only hope and I wouldn’t find anyone else that would accept me. They told me that because I was dumping them. Luckily, I never believed them, because I feel beautiful and worthy and that’s because I have always had my family’s support.

Nate...so proud of you for sharing such an intimate and personal time in your life. Please know that you have made a difference in probably a lot of people by doing so. We cannot control who we love, but we can control the situation if we are strong enough to break out of it. It's sad that usually we blame ourselves as to why they abuse...and it's NOT our fault. Stay strong..I know it still brings a lot of emotion and sadness to you in reliving it, but you did the right thing. God bless you

I think this is healing for u and others to shair the truth about ourselves thank u

I'm so sorry that you went through what pain you did go through. I was abused, controlled for 23 yrs by my ex husband such as you. It is so very hard to walk away when you love them. We were high school sweethearts and had a son. I left seven times all to go back to believing lies. Our scars fade but we never forget. I still after 25 yrs have flashbacks. Thank you for sharing. You always make any food mouth watering. I want to thank your mama for raising such a beautiful young man. God bless you all🤗

I clean my bone, especially now that I'm older. Chicken Wings are kinda expensive nowadays. I gotta get every piece of meat on the bone. Can't afford to waste. 🤣

I had a similar experience with my ex. I was also blinded by love. He didn't care about me or our family. He would do messed up stuff & then shower me with love as a sorry. He would have these crazy temper outbursts and unfortunately our son witnessed one if the worst, (he is 3). He legit grabbed a knife from the kitchen and started to tried to stab himself. I ran over and tried to put the knife away and he turned the knife on me. I was so scared for myself and my son and had to convince him to put it down. I did exactly what you did and loved on him and held him like a kid. He would always do shit like that but this was different & almost could have cut me or worse. I loved him so much but happy to be out of that house. Now I look back & realized how bad that situation & relationship was. He is off living his life & I'm trying to rebuild mine for my son now.

I was also in a DV relationship. I completely understand you not remembering, and getting emotional. I have no memory of the first punch until the police arrived. It's been over 20 years ago and I still get emotional. Everything you said is so true! Thank you so much for sharing your story. It takes a lot of courage to talk about it.

Oh my this made me feel way better I used to be in a very abusive relationship and a very abusive father that still haunting until now but made me feel great with your advice you're such a nice person that loves his mom the way I love my mother who passed away 6 years ago I miss her so much ♥️

I've been there and I'm so glad we are survivors of that kinda horrible situations.

God Bless all survivors of DV!!! Stay Strong everyone 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏💯💪🏽

Nate!! Not the "off with her head!!" 😂😂

I feel this so much. I'm barely 5'4 and he is 6'4 and used to get off on towering over me yelling and pushing and being so abu$ive while I just bawled and cowered away. I say used to because after I had to call the cops and was living in so much fear in the place we lived in together, that I had big furniture all stacked up against the door in case he came back and tried to get in, I decided that was enough and I left him. But it took way too long and I know exactly what you mean. Love is blind and I don't trust my stupid ass heart, as far as romance is concerned. I'd rather be single for the rest of my life than go through that kind of crap again. So glad we are both out and safe! ❤️

I’m so sorry for what you went through Nate and thanks for sharing because we all have our own stories and it feels good not to be alone and that these things should be talked about 🤗 Have you tried the Quest cookies? They are really good and huge. Take care Nate 💜💜

I’ve seen this happen to many times with family members, some have recovered well but unfortunately some are still in it. I am so proud of you Nate for sharing your experience x

It's so strong of you to share a personal story like that! DV is a huge issue and most people are scared to speak! I love you 😍

Nate, you did the right thing getting out of that relationship. You are blessed and doing well now so never look back! I'm pretty sure your story will inspire other folks to do the same. They can't control you once you say NO MORE! God Speed and much success!

Been there too sweet Nate. We are so lucky to have survived. Stay strong love! ❤️❤️❤️ Totally feel everything you described unfortunately. But, on a positive note - you make those wings look so friggin’ delicious. 😍

OMG!! I'm sorry you had to go thru that. I myself went thru something like that with an ex that I was with for two years. He lied to me, cheated on me, stole money from my purse, tried to sell my car for alcoho, made me buy my own engagement ring and was on drugs. Thank God for my cousin that helped me get out of the relationship otherwise I'd probably not be here today.

Nate thank you so much for sharing this difficult and traumatic experience. This is so sad and scary I’m glad you are ok. Time heals but some people need longer to heal and that’s ok. 💚💚💚💚

Oh Nate, I'm so sorry you went through that! Nobody deserves that. So happy that you got out and doing amazing! And yes, NO ONE disrespects our mamas 💕💕

Heyyyy my favorite guy♥️♥️♥️♥️

I didn't understand your personality at first, but now I do. Your the kind of person I hang out with. Cool guy

Thank you for sharing it is a hard topic to discuss, I was blind during my dv situation, i finally decided to put my self first, self love is the best love and we deserve to be loved correctly and respected💜

DV survivor here for 5 years. I am sorry you went through what you did but I am happy to hear your story because it reminds me of how strong us survivors had to be. It reminds me I am never alone. Love you my friend and know you are such a blessing to us all ♥️ #flats

You need to try It's just wings they have jalapeño and cilantro flavor that is BOMB I think they are in Phoenix if they are let me know and I'll sponsor that video for ya

Love it!

Blind love is dumb love unfortunately. I watched my mom go through it. Time heals wounds, but that doesn’t mean phantom pain isn’t left behind❤️

nate I just want you to know that you are loved and no matter the affects you've had from this traumatic situation im proud of you for even being strong enough to sit here and talk about it

BG thank you so much for sharing! You have no idea how many people you are helping by sharing your experiences. Love you brother!

Binge watching you while on my 24hr fast. Love your energy and humor.

Nate thank you so much for sharing your story with us. I was in a bad relationship that finally ended back in November it was never physical it was all emotional, emotional DV situations suck so much. I’m in a much better place now thank goodness! I love your channel! Keep up the amazing work buddy. ❤️

I love that you pray before you eat! ✝️🙏🏼❤️

I know exactly what you have gone through. I was seeing a man that that 2 days after being with controlled my every move. He said it was because he had a little sister my age that had passed and in his sick way of thinking correcting me in all I did was why we should be together. He had always spoke of his big dreams of being together but not as most couple's dream... death is not a dream you want for someone you say you love. After 5 months of breaking up with him he came to my home and almost ended my life. It took me 15 years to for him to walk away or at least move on. I pray for anyone who he has dated because I know he is still that same person he was. My prayers to all who have lived through this and hope that your heart and mind heal from this pain. No one deserves this. When I see how sad you were becoming, I just wanted to give you a big hug and tell you how beautiful you are... you got this sweetie. Deep down once we find our footing, we all will once more. Love you Nate♥X♥X♥

“Love shouldn’t hurt” YOU said it babe.. thank you for feeling the comfort to express this w/us.. I too have been in this situation & relate to a T. That was a moment in ur life, NOT ur whole life.. remember that ♥️

My therapist told me that when you go through something traumatic that you're brain will protect you from the memory until you're ready to remember it again. So maybe the trauma isn't ready to resurface yet that's why you can't remember what happened when you went blank. I started remembering what happened to me when I was younger 24 years later.

Nate,I'm so sorry you went through that.thank you for sharing. I know by you sharing your story, you helped someone.

Thanks for sharing Nate! Very relatable❤️. No matter how much time goes by, it can still be triggering

It's ok to cry about something you are over. I still cry about things from my past because it affected me and my life regardless of how far I've come from it. It's a part of you regardless of being over it so it will still have an affect on you. ❤❤

You have no idea how close to home this hits for me right now. Currently going through a divorce and custody battle with my husband- DV situation, I’ve been making excuses for his behavior for years but since I had my daughter mid-2020, it has been escalating and I had to get us away, I had enough. Luckily I have my parents help and support and my heart breaks for those who don’t have help or aren’t able to get away. I’m so sorry you went through that and thank you so much for sharing your story

It’s ok to cry over things you thought you were over. ❤️ sounds traumatic and I feel you on a personal level!! Sending love

Nate, I’m so sorry what you went through this. You are brave! Remember, your mama is always a beautiful significant motivator in your life. Sending you a huge, huge hugs. ❤️

Dealing with an abusive narcissist in a relationship will not only destroy who you are on the inside while you are with them but they will make sure you feel ALONE without them. It's really one of those things you can't speak on unless you go through it yourself, and then you understand how hard it is, when it's good it's good but when it's bad it's hell.. and it gets worse from there, the fights get worse, the degrading gets worse, the abuse in general gets really bad. I'm sorry you went through that Nate, I'm glad you are out of it and never went back 💗Nobody should ever be scared of their S/O 🥺 Also, rest in peace to your big sis 👼🏼 Shout-out to Mama for standing her ground for you and her!! No one disrespects mama 🤬

Very relatable story time. Love you big guy appetite.

Nate you can never get over a scary life changing experience especially from someone You loved . I’ve been there I still have flashbacks till this day it takes time to heal love you boo ❤️

Your brave! I’m glad that you moved on. That time in your life didn’t break, he didn’t break. Because now you are much stronger than before. God bless you always!❤️

Nate- so brave of you to share such a personal story. No doubt you have helped more people than you know by sharing this trauma you went through. ❤️

that was a pretty heartfelt story you told us. my mom went through some similar things w significant others she’s had and i’ve also dealt w it because of the trauma her crazy exes gave me. so i somewhat understand where you’re coming from because i’ve seen it happen to my mother. my mom also still has contact w the man who assaulted us and her which i don’t understand but after watching this i kind of do. the man is very narcissistic and has insulted my mom lots of times on the phone. i hope one day she will be like you and cut him off because it hurts me too, because it’s not love. she also says what he did was a mistake and he didn’t mean it but i do not think so. so thank you for opening my eyes nate. 💕

Thank you for sharing your story! I know that couldn't have been easy for you, but trust and believe you just saved someone from a potentially dangerous situation. We are all so glad you made it out of that terrifying situation and that you are here today sharing your beautiful self with the world. Love your channel!

I never comment, but can I just say I absolutely adore you! You are such a strong & Amazing person! We all could use a friend like you in our life! Blessings come from growth, and growth comes from the many obstacles we conquer! Keep doin YOU Nate! You are doin a fabulous job! Thanks for all your hard work!👏🏽😁🙌🏽💜

Thanks for sharing your story. It can be difficult. So glad to know you where able to get yourself out of that awful situation 💜💜💜

when you said when you really love someone, it's hard to wanna' fight back or give back that same energy 'cos you really love them-- i felt that so deeply. i was in a really toxic, abusive marriage and it was very similar. and when he'd get abusive, i'd always wonder how he could "love me" yet hurt me so deeply. it was NOT love! definitely get out while you can! thank you for sharing, Nate! 🥺🤞🏽❤️

I’m right there with ya my sister saved me a few times when I felt like my life was in danger, she stopped what she was doing and drove right over to pick me up. thank god for her who know what woulda happened 🙏🏼

It's was one of the hardest moments in my life. I loved him so much I couldn't let him go. Till one night he had me on choke hold I couldn't scream for help and was about to pass out. I had my phone in my hand so I hit him with it so he could let me go. My whole life flashed thru my head that moment..my daughter, my mom, my dad.. they needed me! 😭 Now I'm a year free of the abuse. I can finally say, I'm alive!! 🙌💖

I love this video. I was in a DV relationship a few years ago with my daughters dad. He was a very jealous person and very narcissistic. He would cheat on me and blame me why he cheated, abandon my daughter and I by leaving us at random places and I would have to find my way back home, he would give me black eyes, hit me while pregnant and one time we got into a fist fight( mind you he’s 6’6 and I’m 5’6) and he pushed my daughter off the bed when she was in a car seat. I was so blinded by love and really wanted it to work since we had a child together and was “in love” but I knew it wasn’t love and I had to get out. He put my daughter and I thru so much bullshit but now I’m happy to say that we have no contact with him at all, I’ve met someone who treats me and my daughter like queens, got us an apartment, and has never EVER disrespected me. I hope & pray to whoever is in a DV situation can get out safely and know your WORTH 💕

It is super hard to get out of a relationship like that. I was married with children with my abuser and he would threaten to take my kids if I left him and make sure I was broke and take my vehicle and yes I finally found the guts get a protective order and divorce him. I've got full custody of my children and he pays me child support and I still have my vehicle. The judge granted me a 1 yr protective cover which its normally 3 months but because he had hurt me so many times and threatened to kill me. Held me hostage for 24 hours saying he was going to kill me then himself and all the other things, because of that and I have proof of everything the judge granted me a year of peace. I am so glad me and my kids are no longer in that situation. I'm glad you got away too Nate. God bless and thanks for sharing. I know that wasn't easy ❤️

Nate blessed ypu for asking your mom if she wants some and give her first that is saying your mom brought you up well manner blessings to you and your love ones. My 😋 is watery just watching you eat this delicious stuff.

Nate I've been in both physical and mental relationships I've learned you can't change people as much as we try we can't it never gets any better in those situations it only progressively gets worse We learn and grow from experiences and you are a wonderful person who deserves the best! Love you boo bears!💙💙💙💙💙😘

I love the vibes!! Offering food to your mom, blessing the food, keeping things light even in dark topics. The food looks amazing too. First video and I subscribed immediately.

I just had a rough day, broke things off with the toxico. But so glad Nate uploaded 😭🙌🏽

I appreciate you sharing Nate...it's not an easy thing to talk about. Thank God you are here to bring awareness 🙏 but most importantly thank God you are strong enough to help others. 💙
