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.🤗🤗

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

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

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. 🙏🏽🥰

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!💗💗💗

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💙

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

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 ♥

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‼️

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! ✨❤️

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

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

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 ❤️

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 .

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 ❤

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

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.

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 ❤️❤️

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!

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!

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

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 🥰🥰

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

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❤

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 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 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’m sorry you had to go through that 💕. So many of us can definitely relate sadly enough to this. So glad your in a much better and stronger place in life 💪🏾♥️👏🏽

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!

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

Thank you for sharing your story 🙏🏽💕 I’ve been through something similar and I feel traumatized from it even after leaving that relationship years ago. You are so brave for talking about this and love you for it! I’m def subscribing.

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

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 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 😉

Story times are my favorite love knowing you on a personal level and hearing your experience thank god you got out of that relationship your such a amazing person who deserves so much happiness

I'm sorry you went through that! You deserve the best! I hope you find someone who will treat you the way you should be treated. Thanks for sharing your story Nate! ❤❤

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. 😍

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.

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! 🙏🏼 ❤

Thank You for your story 😭especially the great uplift at the end. First time to your channel because it was a recommended vid and WOW I’m speechless. TY!

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

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. 💚💚💚💚

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

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 💙💛

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.

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

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 😍

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

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.

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. ❤️

“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 ♥️

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.

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

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

Heyyyy my favorite guy♥️♥️♥️♥️

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

Okay , now I need some wings ! Lol love your vibes and love how you share stories . 💜 You are one of the best youtubers . Hope you are having a great weekend 😊

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

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.

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

Love you! Thank you so so much for being raw and real! I appreciate you!

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 💕💕

Thank you for sharing your story. I’m so glad you’re out of that situation.

Ofc the good looks good as always 🤤🙌🏽……that story time just had me shaking my head because I know a lot of people who went through what you’ve been through and how they had to cope and heal after the relationship. Happy that’s the past tho. All POSITIVE energy 2022 and forward. Ayeeeee 🥳

Oh wow Nate thank you for opening up about this subject a lot of people especially with a platform try to hide it..I’m glad your out of it and better may god bless you

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. ❤️

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. ❤️

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!👏🏽😁🙌🏽💜

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. 🙏 🙏

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. 💙

Very relatable story time. Love you big guy appetite.

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.

Looks delicious bro! I'm trying to catch up on your videos I missed seeing. Always love watching you. 👑🙏💖

Wow !! I just ordered a Chicago style pizza and I can't wait for it to get here. Now I want wings too 😩 your food looks bomb diggity. Xoxoxooo

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 ❤️

While I've never experienced this kind of situation, BRAVO 👏 for sharing your story . We are here to help one another and I do believe this has already helped someone along.

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. 💕

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

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!💙💙💙💙💙😘

Hi Nate, I am soooo happy you seen your worth and removed urself from that situation. I too have been there as I was in a 12 year toxic violent relationship. I felt like I was not leave but slowly and surely I found the strength to do so. I do suffer from PTSD from that relationship buy I defintely feel like talking does help urself and others who do not understand or know what to do when they find themselves in a similar situation. Thank you for being real and true and may God continue to bless u and ur family. I just love ur channel and I feel like I can definitely relate to u on this issue. Much Love ❤

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

I been in a similar situation 💙 thanks for sharing boo boo 💙. Love Quest Pizza too 😀

Stop it BGA! You make me crave and want Wingstop EVERY TIME you have it and share it with us! 😩😍 Please keep them coming. I love Wingstop! 🥰

Omg I have never tried wingstop and you are making me want it sooooo bad! Looks sooooo dang goood🤤🤤🤤🤤! Love you Nate❤️! So glad you shared this with us 🙌🏻🙏🏼

This video was so triggering but thank you so much for sharing. I really do think it helps to share and talk things out. It helps you heal a little, helps other survivors know they are not alone, and helps people who think it could never be them recognize the signs & the red flags. Thank you!

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 🙏🏼

More story times, when you’re ready. I love your videos! ❤

Dude I like your new profile picture! Pizza and wings looks so yummy 😋 I'm happy you got out of that awful and unhealthy situation!😐💜

I am so happy that you have talked about this for the people that Need it! Because I know even some friends of mine that have gone through this. Thankfully one of my friends has gotten out of her situation which is absolutely great. I know for a fact if my husband was like this I would not be with him. It's crazy to think that some men are like that.
