Sister Wives_ Kody on Why It’s ‘NOT SAFE’ to Be With Meri (Exclusive)

Transcript

00:00 I feel the emotions of friendship with Mary.

00:05 I don't understand why she doesn't understand that where her relationship is.

00:14 I think she's in this position waiting for me to go, "Oh no, don't move to Parowan.

00:20 I'm worried that you're doing this," you know, and stuff like that.

00:23 I'm just like in a place where I'm not a little too ambivalent, to be fair.

00:31 Well, have you ever told Robin that you don't feel married to Mary?

00:34 Yeah, of course Robin knows where I'm at.

00:36 Do you think Robin being there and kind of in between, the go-between in that relationship,

00:41 is that kind of giving a sense of false hope?

00:45 No, I think Robin really does try to advocate for Mary for better or for worse.

00:52 As Robin, I never would have put myself in that position.

00:55 If Cody can't talk to Mary alone, then they probably shouldn't be having any kind of conversations.

01:01 But I know that Mary calls Robin in.

01:05 I don't know.

01:06 It's kind of a big mess to me.

01:07 Do you think Cody's just kind of afraid to, in front of Robin, say, "Hey, this is not

01:14 working"?

01:15 No, I don't think so, because he even would say it in front of me.

01:18 I mean, he was very vocal with me, even that there was no hope of a relationship there.

01:24 So I don't think he's afraid to say it.

01:27 There's been a lot of moments, I feel, where Cody has been emotionally so withdrawn from

01:32 Mary, but Mary has...

01:34 Hope.

01:35 A lot of hope.

01:36 I think you have hope and you have hope and you have hope until you realize you don't

01:40 have hope anymore.

01:41 And that realization that there's no hope anymore, it can still be a while after that

01:48 until you can leave.

01:50 I had hope for so long, for so long.

01:52 I imagine this is how Mary felt, even though he was saying that, she still had hope.

01:57 And there comes a time when you realize, "Oh, there is no hope."

02:02 I will always love her.

02:05 I can't be in love with her.

02:07 It's not safe for me.

02:11 And when I say that, there's... make up any bulls*** you want, but I'm telling you, I'm

02:15 not going to sit here and drive the bus over her because this is sad.

02:20 It's heartbreaking.

02:21 It just didn't work.

02:23 It just didn't work.
