1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:05,160 Speaker 1: The key to survival, the actually the counter intuitive approach. 2 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,440 Speaker 2: You hear it right, counter sold everywhere you get books, 3 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:12,880 Speaker 2: you get books.

It all started 16 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: with real talk, unfiltered, honest and straight from the heart. 17 00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:03,000 Speaker 1: Since then, we've gone on to become Weibby Award winning 18 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,560 Speaker 1: podcasters in New York Times best selling authors. 19 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 2: Dead Ass was more than a podcast for us. It 20 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 2: was about our growth, a place where we could be vulnerable. 21 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,440 Speaker 1: Be raw, or but most apportantly be us. 22 00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:17,399 Speaker 2: But as we know, life keeps evolving, and so do we, 23 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,880 Speaker 2: and through it all, one thing has never changed. This 24 00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:25,520 Speaker 2: is ever after. Because we got a lot to talk about. 25 00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:26,040 Speaker 4: Yo. 26 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 1: All right, So first of all, I just want to 27 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 1: I just wanted to shout you out for admitting that 28 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: you just love to fight sometimes. 29 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 3: I do. 30 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:33,960 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying. It's a Sagittarius and me. 31 00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 2: You say we'd be a little spontaneous. You know, we're 32 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:37,280 Speaker 2: like a little spontanety. 33 00:01:37,880 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 1: Sometimes I'd be wondering what's going on, But now I. 34 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 2: Know it's how it be. 35 00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: You know, we tried to blame the horm No. 36 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,840 Speaker 2: Yes, I'm feeling a little spicy.

I forgot my glasses today. 38 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:47,880 Speaker 1: Job. 39 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:52,560 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, my bamboo Areasney. Sometimes I'm 40 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 2: feeling a little like, you know, very Brooklyn, very much 41 00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 2: like let's fight. Let's tussle a. 42 00:01:56,960 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: Little bit, y'all see what I go through. Pray for me, 43 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: Pray for me. 44 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:02,680 Speaker 2: We keep a spicy over here. 45 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:03,080 Speaker 3: Okay. 46 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,400 Speaker 1: The funny thing is the story time that I'm stelling 47 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,720 Speaker 1: today isn't about an argument between you and I for 48 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 1: once and for once, right, So it's actually very very different, 49 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 1: But it is talking about interpersonal communication. Last summer I 50 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: hired a consultant, as you guys know now, hopefully you've 51 00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 1: been to vintage vine and spirits. But I started a business. Right, 52 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 1: go ahead, go ahead, breaking mortar, breaking mortar. 53 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:33,680 Speaker 2: Yes for your wines, your spirits, this time a little elevated, 54 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 2: you know, establishment, if you will. 55 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 1: Allgated elevated tipsiness is what I like to you? 56 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 5: Like that drink responsibly? Yes, please always drink response responsibly. 57 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 5: But I knew nothing about this business, and I saw 58 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 5: an opportunity to own a break and mortar, so I 59 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 5: took that opportunity, and I had nothing. 60 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 1: I knew nothing about it. I wasn't an expert, so 61 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: what I did was hire an expert that knew exactly 62 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: what he was doing. And what I found myself was 63 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: trying to tell the expert that I hired and made 64 00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,520 Speaker 1: a lot of money to how I wanted the business run. 65 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:09,320 Speaker 1: And it took about six months of debates and arguments 66 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: back and forth before I had to kind of swallow 67 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:16,360 Speaker 1: my pride and realize that I didn't know shit about 68 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,360 Speaker 1: what I was talking about. And I was more concerned 69 00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 1: about proving that I knew what I was doing rather 70 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 1: than just letting him what I paid him for. So 71 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:29,360 Speaker 1: I started just listening and understand his perspective so that 72 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:32,079 Speaker 1: I could say, oh, rather than trying to defend why 73 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 1: that wouldn't work, just listen to it for sure. And 74 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 1: after a couple months, I was like, Oh, we're moving. 75 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 1: That's it because I'm getting out of my own way 76 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: him be. 77 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,960 Speaker 5: The expert what it is, yes, but also taking the 78 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 5: time to give him a chance to speak so we 79 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 5: can get everything out. 80 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 1: And then it was my turn, and then we were 81 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,800 Speaker 1: able to actually get the business across the finish line 82 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: because we both had to step back and say, ah, 83 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,320 Speaker 1: you knew the business, but I knew the demographic. So 84 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 1: sometimes it's just getting out of your own way so 85 00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 1: you can listen before you have so much to say. 86 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 2: And you always say you know what you don't know. 87 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,440 Speaker 1: And now I knew what I didn't know. I just 88 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: didn't know how much I didn't know that part. 89 00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 2: All right, karaoke time, all. 90 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: Right, so you you called out the bamboo and lings, 91 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: all right, So this song is around that time. And 92 00:04:21,040 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 1: since we're talking about fighting and you like to be 93 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,480 Speaker 1: a thug, listen. 94 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,800 Speaker 2: When I'm ready. You know what I'm saying. You can't 95 00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 2: take the Brooklyn out of girl. Mama said knock you 96 00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: as well to come back. 97 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:46,680 Speaker 1: I've been married for years. Yeah, that's how been here. 98 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 1: Sometimes y'all heard my wife, you wanting to fight. I 99 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: don't be wanting to fight. 100 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,159 Speaker 2: I want to That is such a lie. 101 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 1: I don't want to fight. I want to fuck. 102 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 3: Listen swear. 103 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 1: I don't want to fight anybody. 104 00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 2: Who knows us. No. I love a debate, honey, he 105 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:04,240 Speaker 2: got the receipts giving is giving high school debate t 106 00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 2: middle school? Middle school even started earlier. My god, yes, 107 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 2: and I feel the effects of it every day. 108 00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't like to fight, but I do 109 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 1: love to debate. Yes, I do love to do that's 110 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 1: their love to be challenged. I love to challenge people. 111 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:23,000 Speaker 1: That's why me in trouble get along so much. But 112 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: I don't like to fight my wife that I don't. 113 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 2: We don't really, we don't fight no more. We just 114 00:05:27,680 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 2: be like having these very long, drawing out discussions. But 115 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,800 Speaker 2: at least we come to some sort of understanding and 116 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: then we move on because we're no longer the festering 117 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 2: and dragging it on to the next day. 118 00:05:37,320 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 1: That's the biggest thing. We'll discuss it. But we've learned 119 00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: how to debate and discuss things without attacking each other 120 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:44,120 Speaker 1: for sure. 121 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 4: Like it's fighting. 122 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 1: That's how you say that for karaoke. 123 00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 4: You had your song, Bro, you had your song? 124 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 1: Is your friend? 125 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: Don't use it?

I mean 178 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:04,160 Speaker 7: to be honest with you, the I like the thought 179 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 7: around not taking the typical pictures get you know, such 180 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 7: a I want to say, like esteemed, but like this 181 00:09:12,960 --> 00:09:17,040 Speaker 7: is not everyday photographer's task to shoot a presidential cabinet, right, 182 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 7: so you do get one that's as impactful and will 183 00:09:20,280 --> 00:09:24,200 Speaker 7: be as memorable as Donald Trump's cabinet. You he took 184 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,760 Speaker 7: full advantage of making photos that will always be remembered. 185 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:27,320 Speaker 2: Right. 186 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,160 Speaker 3: This is like, this is like completely out of the box. 187 00:09:30,200 --> 00:09:30,360 Speaker 1: Now. 188 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:33,719 Speaker 7: The photos are comical when you when you consider the 189 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,440 Speaker 7: status of the person versus the quality of the photo, right, 190 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 7: Like they don't match whatsoever. 191 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:41,679 Speaker 3: But I think that's what's brilliant about it. 192 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, I think that that's what the photographer 193 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 2: had in mind. 194 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:50,199 Speaker 6: Absolutely, you don't make these pictures like yeah, so the photographer, 195 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 6: Christopher Anderson is a prolific editorial photographer. He takes great pictures. 196 00:09:57,840 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 6: And some of these pictures like JD Van's for ind 197 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 6: and his portrait photo. It's a full body portrait and 198 00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 6: he's standing next to a light switch and a like 199 00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 6: a temperature gauge, which and it's in the photo. Like 200 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 6: no good photographer would lead that in that photo. 201 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:16,679 Speaker 2: Is that easily photoshop? 202 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 4: Yeah? 203 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 6: So it's like it's like a reference to how tall, 204 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:28,559 Speaker 6: how small he is, you know, and this photographer is 205 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 6: a professional. It's not like this is his first photo shoot. 206 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 6: He would never you know, compromise his own art or 207 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:40,280 Speaker 6: his reputation by taking a bad photo unless it is 208 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 6: on purpose. 209 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 4: But I don't think he's a bad photo. 210 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 6: No, they're not bad photos. 211 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:45,800 Speaker 2: But that you know, that is just like the frame 212 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 2: and the choice of like angle, it's not the standard 213 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,360 Speaker 2: cabinet portrait you would typically expect. 214 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,120 Speaker 7: Yeah, it's like what you're including in the photograph is not, 215 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,079 Speaker 7: like Matt said, expected, But he's purpose included. I think 216 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 7: it's part of it's a part of storytelling, which obviously this. 217 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 1: Is this is what it is. Yeah, this cabinet wants 218 00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: to control all narratives. So this doesn't surprise me. Hey, 219 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 1: we're normal we're just like you were regular. Well they 220 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: take all your money. 221 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 6: Well they didn't. They didn't have the artistic choice. The 222 00:11:14,200 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 6: photographer did. 223 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, And what I'm saying is, I'm pretty sure that 224 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:19,760 Speaker 1: administration told that photographer exactly how it's going to go. 225 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: They'd be telling this, they be telling anybody what to do. 226 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 2: True, And if they made it out, then somebody approved them. 227 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:30,079 Speaker 6: Though, right, yeah, Vanity Fair did. Yeah, because this is 228 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 6: this would be against what they would want. They wouldn't 229 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,040 Speaker 6: want to look stat you asque But they also are 230 00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 6: not artistic people, and they're not they're not sophisticated, right, right, 231 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 6: So even if they did approve, it is likely that 232 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,079 Speaker 6: they could have missed some of this stuff because they 233 00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:48,439 Speaker 6: just don't have the sophistication that you know, people don't. 234 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,440 Speaker 2: Be sophisticated when you sometimes will like somebody say, oh, 235 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:51,800 Speaker 2: I'll take a picture for you, and then you hand 236 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 2: them your phone and then they take a picture and 237 00:11:53,679 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 2: like you're all the way down here in the bottom 238 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 2: left corner and there's a bunch of shit in the background. 239 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: It's like, what were you taking the picture of me? 240 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 6: I ain't gonna take picture of you. 241 00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 2: That's me invested when somebody asked me to take a picture, 242 00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 2: I'm like, Okay, let me frame this up. Let me 243 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: make sure you look good. I fix the light, face 244 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 2: the light you don't want to like behind you. Like 245 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,040 Speaker 2: I do all those things just easily, and then I 246 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 2: find like when I pass it to somebody else, it'll 247 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:17,880 Speaker 2: just be like I don't. 248 00:12:18,040 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 7: I don't ever get good photos of people taking me 249 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 7: like if casually just taking pictures of me. 250 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 6: I know Josh is not talking I. 251 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 7: Josh. 252 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:34,680 Speaker 6: I asked Josh to take pictures of me one time once, 253 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:36,679 Speaker 6: the only ones in my whole life. The whole time 254 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 6: I've known Josh five years, I've asked him to take 255 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 6: picture of me. One time. He took the pictures. He 256 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,440 Speaker 6: acted like it was all good. I'm moving around posting. 257 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 6: I'm pretty awkward in front of the camera. So I'm like, Josh, 258 00:12:47,160 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 6: you're a fucking fantastic photography. It's gonna make me look 259 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:54,199 Speaker 6: so good. It's a parking no parking sign in every picture, 260 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 6: every picture. 261 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,839 Speaker 3: And I was stupid.

See, that's why you shouldn't be nosy, 268 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 6: because I wasn't even talking about photographersiness in my business. 269 00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 6: I was talking about an illustrator who's drawing an original 270 00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:25,120 Speaker 6: photo of me and using a photo where I'm wearing 271 00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 6: glasses as a reference. 272 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:29,200 Speaker 3: All right, we don't need to fight exactly, because. 273 00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: You're fighting wrong and you beout, you better get. 274 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 7: In here the real talk.

So the reason why 334 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 6: I picked this title for this episode is because I 335 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:12,200 Speaker 6: have a book by doctor John and doctors John and 336 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:16,040 Speaker 6: Julie Gotman. It's called fight Right. And they started the 337 00:16:16,040 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 6: Gotment Institute where they study. They provide science based information 338 00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 6: about relationships. Couple's marriage is their specialty. And so years ago. 339 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:30,680 Speaker 6: They came up with this the four horsemen of the Apocalypse, 340 00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:34,760 Speaker 6: and it's a metaphor they used to describe destructive communication 341 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 6: styles that, based on decades of research, can predict the 342 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,960 Speaker 6: end of a relationship with over ninety percent accuracy if 343 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:46,400 Speaker 6: not addressed. And so those four horsemen when you're communicating 344 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 6: in conflict with your partner are criticism, so attacking your 345 00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:56,440 Speaker 6: partner's core character rather than sticking to a specific complaint. Contempt, 346 00:16:56,560 --> 00:17:00,680 Speaker 6: which is sarcasm, name calling, iron it can make your 347 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:06,480 Speaker 6: partner feel despised or worthless. Defensiveness when your partner may 348 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:10,080 Speaker 6: make excuses or play the innocent victim to deflect blame 349 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,760 Speaker 6: or like cross complaining like you know, yeah I did this, 350 00:17:14,840 --> 00:17:18,880 Speaker 6: but you did that. And then stonewalling, which is when 351 00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:24,200 Speaker 6: a partner withdraws from the interaction, shuts down, or stops responding. 352 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 2: So comes from someone or a relationship exhibiting all four 353 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 2: of these or just one of them. 354 00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is why I said early on. 355 00:17:36,920 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 2: We had to kick the bucket a long time. 356 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, Well that's that's that's the part of it is 357 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,639 Speaker 6: that if it's not addressed, that's the ninety percent accuracy 358 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:46,600 Speaker 6: that a relationship will in But if you address it, 359 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:49,879 Speaker 6: and you can try to try to at least acknowledge 360 00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 6: and repair, then you should be able to, you know, 361 00:17:52,880 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 6: continue to grow. Yeah, but op or no, op? Are 362 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,159 Speaker 6: you do you experience any of these four horsemen? Have 363 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,040 Speaker 6: you in the past? Have you addressed it? 364 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: Yes? 365 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 2: Absolutely, in twenty three years, I would hope. So, you know, 366 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:09,159 Speaker 2: I think for me, though, all four of these go 367 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 2: hand in hand with accountability, which I said in a 368 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 2: prior episode that's the one thing that I think was 369 00:18:13,320 --> 00:18:16,480 Speaker 2: always lacking for me, just this desire to always feel 370 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,119 Speaker 2: like I'm doing the right thing all the time. And 371 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,159 Speaker 2: that's not that I'm perfect, but it's just like, no, 372 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 2: my intention is this? Why did it impact you that way? 373 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,160 Speaker 2: So I think for me, accountability goes hand in hand 374 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 2: with those four because at least now, even if one 375 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 2: of these things were to happen, I'm not looking at 376 00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 2: it from the lens of okay, how could I have 377 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,639 Speaker 2: handled this differently? Or how can I own up to 378 00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 2: my part and something that went wrong? You know, when 379 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 2: it comes to for example, defensiveness, like that's something that 380 00:18:44,520 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 2: Devala has told me all the time, and the moment 381 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,400 Speaker 2: I don't feel like I'm being defensive. 382 00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: No one ever does. It's not just you. No one 383 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:54,280 Speaker 1: feels like they're being defensive. Those defensive people saying defensive, right. 384 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,160 Speaker 2: I think I've done that. Stonewalling. I've done that too, 385 00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:58,680 Speaker 2: you know, just being like, you know, I just don't 386 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:01,200 Speaker 2: even want to talk about this anymore. So, Yeah, I 387 00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 2: think we all fall victim to it at some point. 388 00:19:03,119 --> 00:19:05,920 Speaker 1: I think the biggest thing is when we talk about 389 00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:09,240 Speaker 1: fighting right, knowing what you're fighting for, right, Like, you 390 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,800 Speaker 1: should be fighting to stay together. And if you're fighting 391 00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:13,680 Speaker 1: to stay together, then you're going to find a way 392 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: to fight, right. But if you're fighting to win the argument, 393 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 1: that's when you end up in that ninety percent of 394 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 1: getting divorced and not being together. For me, the first 395 00:19:21,359 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: thing is I'm fighting to be here. I'm fighting to 396 00:19:23,920 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 1: be with my wife. I'm fighting for us to stay 397 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:26,639 Speaker 1: again together. 398 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:27,040 Speaker 6: Yeah. 399 00:19:27,080 --> 00:19:28,920 Speaker 1: So if I know that that's what I'm fighting for, 400 00:19:29,040 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter what the outcome is. I know what 401 00:19:31,960 --> 00:19:33,640 Speaker 1: my my intent is, so the. 402 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:37,160 Speaker 2: Fight doesn't it doesn't become something individualistic. It becomes more 403 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:37,680 Speaker 2: of like. 404 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: I'm fighting for us, what are we doing? And not 405 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: fighting for me? 406 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:41,040 Speaker 2: Fighting for us? 407 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 1: I think that's that, ultimately is how you get past 408 00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: those four because everybody exhibits one or multiple of those four. 409 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:49,919 Speaker 1: But if you're fighting for the right reasons, then you can. 410 00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:54,879 Speaker 2: Find reason all relationships, not just oh yeah relationships. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, 411 00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 2: familial work all that. How about y'all, which one which 412 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:00,560 Speaker 2: one stands out for you? Of the four? 413 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 4: Stonewalling because I'm not gonna argue with you, just walk away. 414 00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 2: That's very much Matt. 415 00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 4: I can see that it's a flaw. 416 00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:08,639 Speaker 2: But two places Matt ain't going y'all. 417 00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 5: This bag and be like, all right, simple, just heard 418 00:20:15,720 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 5: your copy. 419 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe defensiveness earlier on, I used to be defensive, 420 00:20:26,240 --> 00:20:27,240 Speaker 7: but stone waning for sure. 421 00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,640 Speaker 4: I say defensiveness for me as well. I gotta work 422 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 4: on that a little bit more. But I feel like 423 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:35,280 Speaker 4: I've gotten better with that. 424 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:40,600 Speaker 2: Yeah for me. Stonewalling another word for that. That's like 425 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,719 Speaker 2: my thing. I just sometimes you just can't be bothered 426 00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 2: like in that moment either you just don't have the 427 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 2: capacity for it. I just don't see any value in 428 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 2: this moment with continuing, you know. And then Deval has 429 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 2: hated that because he feels like I'm shutting him off 430 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 2: or shutting down, whereas I just feel like to protect 431 00:20:57,240 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 2: both of our space and both of our feelings in 432 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 2: that it's like better if I do that, But you 433 00:21:01,920 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 2: were like, absolutely not. You want to get to the 434 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 2: bottom of things. 435 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, because in real time, I think it's important that 436 00:21:07,040 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 1: if you understand that you're fighting for you and your partner, 437 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 1: you understand what your partner's first defense mechanisms are going 438 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: to be. Right. Are they going to stonewarm me? Are 439 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,400 Speaker 1: they going to defend themselves? Are they going to eye roll? 440 00:21:19,680 --> 00:21:21,840 Speaker 1: And since I'm fighting for us to be here, I 441 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,720 Speaker 1: don't point that out and just be like, look, you're 442 00:21:23,720 --> 00:21:25,600 Speaker 1: doing anything, I say, yo, can we not? Can we 443 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,960 Speaker 1: get past that? Or I'll accept the fact that you 444 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:29,960 Speaker 1: know what, you're being defensive right now, You're not really 445 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 1: hearing what I'm saying, So I'll try to pivot and 446 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:36,840 Speaker 1: change my approach to avoid hitting those triggers, because it 447 00:21:36,960 --> 00:21:39,120 Speaker 1: matters to me that I don't trigger you while trying 448 00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 1: to explain how I feel. Yeah, you know what I'm saying. 449 00:21:41,760 --> 00:21:45,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a lot to have to juggle within an interaction, But. 450 00:21:46,240 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 1: You choose somebody. If you choose somebody, and this is 451 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 1: the person you think is worth fighting for. That's what 452 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 1: you do. And a lot of times you will hear 453 00:21:54,760 --> 00:21:57,480 Speaker 1: online or people like I ain't going through all of that. Fine, 454 00:21:57,720 --> 00:22:00,600 Speaker 1: you haven't found the person that's worth it for you, 455 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: and that's okay. But when you do, you're going to 456 00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:07,360 Speaker 1: have to be able to do that. Because as much 457 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 1: as I can sit here and say I've figured out 458 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,720 Speaker 1: all the pillars to not be defensive, let me be 459 00:22:12,760 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 1: in a bad place at a bad time, in a 460 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: bad moment. I'm going to get defensive. I'm going to 461 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: stone wall, I'm gonna roll my eyes, and I'm just 462 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: gonna be hoping that I hope my wife in that 463 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:23,879 Speaker 1: moment realized I was in a bad spot and not 464 00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 1: take that as that's me all the time. And I 465 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:28,439 Speaker 1: think that's the most important thing about fighting fear is 466 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: understanding that, you know, what, where is my person at 467 00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 1: right now? While we have this conversation. You know, you 468 00:22:33,400 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 1: and I have been dealing with a lot of grief recently, 469 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:39,520 Speaker 1: so our conversations have been extremely intense and short because 470 00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:41,439 Speaker 1: the minute I say something, that you say something, we 471 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: both feel like, oh, you know, we feel attacked. The 472 00:22:44,359 --> 00:22:45,400 Speaker 1: spotlight is on us. 473 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 2: Oh for sure, and over. 474 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: The past couple of months, we've targeted that and said, 475 00:22:49,720 --> 00:22:51,560 Speaker 1: you know, you acting like this, and I say, I'm 476 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 1: acting like this. 477 00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 2: The emotional capacity is just not even there to even 478 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,439 Speaker 2: address certain arguments. So it's just like, man, I've been 479 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 2: been stone wall like a bitch because I'm like, listen, 480 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,160 Speaker 2: I just can't. I don't have it in this moment. 481 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,560 Speaker 2: But you understand what's happening and before stand all the 482 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:07,960 Speaker 2: outside sources. 483 00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:11,439 Speaker 1: So before people say, you know, it's not fair. Like me, 484 00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: Matt and Josh have had different relations, different conversations as husbands, 485 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,680 Speaker 1: and we'll be like, you know, does your wife do this? Yeah, 486 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 1: my wife does that. My wife does And at the 487 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: end of it, it's just like, that's my wife, you 488 00:23:22,840 --> 00:23:25,520 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like I chose her, yeah, and 489 00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:28,159 Speaker 1: that's my wife and that's what she does. So me 490 00:23:28,200 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: and Josh talking about this last night and we was 491 00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 1: like we just you know, you breathe sometimes and you 492 00:23:32,119 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: say that's the only person I want to be with 493 00:23:34,680 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: and is that worth me putting up with? And the 494 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,160 Speaker 1: answer is always yes. And I think that's what people 495 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:42,320 Speaker 1: need to start having those conversations not be perfect. So 496 00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: your partner never feels a trigger. It's just having empathy 497 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 1: and understanding that people going to be triggered sometimes, Like 498 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:50,560 Speaker 1: we're humans, we're not robots, And just because a little 499 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: red flag may pop up, don't mean you dismiss a 500 00:23:52,720 --> 00:23:55,040 Speaker 1: person or a situation, you know what I'm saying. It's 501 00:23:55,040 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: just fighting fear is understanding that that's a human, you know, 502 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,159 Speaker 1: not a prompted AI bot that you expected all of 503 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,200 Speaker 1: the responses to come out perfectly. 504 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:03,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 505 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 6: I've spent a lot of time learning how to fight 506 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:11,560 Speaker 6: because just I feel like I used to struggle with 507 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:14,760 Speaker 6: like contempt and defensiveness and then being in a relationship 508 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 6: that would escalate to physical violence. I had to learn 509 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,840 Speaker 6: how to, like, you know, choose my words carefully and 510 00:24:22,400 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 6: when people come to me and say, like they don't 511 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:27,240 Speaker 6: like what I said, or I have a sensitivity about 512 00:24:27,280 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 6: being perceived as mean. So I've always just tried to 513 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 6: figure out how to communicate better in conflict. And I 514 00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 6: took a class this year, a workshop this year with 515 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 6: my friend Alta Gracia at the Seventh Space in Newark 516 00:24:41,080 --> 00:24:43,879 Speaker 6: called Conflict Bravery, which kind of teaches you how to 517 00:24:45,960 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 6: how to face conflict head on with people that you 518 00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,880 Speaker 6: are in a relationship with, whether it is romantic, friendship, family, 519 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 6: and still come out of that conflict with love intact 520 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 6: and relationship intact. And one of the content, which is 521 00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 6: something that you're kind of hitting on right now, is 522 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:07,879 Speaker 6: unconditional positive regard. If you can have unconditional positive regard 523 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 6: for your partner when you're in conflict, you won't tend 524 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 6: to take things personal because you know that what they're 525 00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 6: trying to do, they're not trying to attack here as 526 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,560 Speaker 6: a fact, you know what I'm saying. Then you can 527 00:25:18,560 --> 00:25:21,600 Speaker 6: start to consider what else may be happening in that moment, 528 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:24,439 Speaker 6: and you can keep that conflict kind of contained into 529 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:27,240 Speaker 6: what it is instead of letting it spill over into 530 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 6: your whole relationship. 531 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,000 Speaker 1: Yo, I like that one of the biggest conflicts we've 532 00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: been dealing with now because the kids are growing, like 533 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,040 Speaker 1: it seems like they're growing exponentially. Parents are getting older, 534 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,639 Speaker 1: so there's more responsibilities on the two of us to 535 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:44,199 Speaker 1: handle and help everybody's plus businesses are growing, things are happening. 536 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:47,879 Speaker 1: We argue the most about time we want time with 537 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: each other, and there's some days where we'll be arguing 538 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,720 Speaker 1: and like at at which end, and then I'll just 539 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 1: be like, yo, just stop for a minute. And then 540 00:25:57,680 --> 00:25:59,679 Speaker 1: she was like, what's so funny, And I'll be like, 541 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: think about what we're arguing about. We are arguing about 542 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:08,239 Speaker 1: wanting to be with each other more so before we 543 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,520 Speaker 1: get upset at each other. We're not arguing about infidelity. 544 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: We're not arguing about finances. We're not arguing about violence. 545 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:17,440 Speaker 1: We're not arguing about death. We're arguing about how much 546 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 1: we love each other and want each other more. You 547 00:26:19,840 --> 00:26:24,119 Speaker 1: know how many marriages are about that they can't find 548 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:28,199 Speaker 1: time for each other, and they're arguing about who's not 549 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 1: putting enough effort into making that time. That's what we 550 00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 1: were arguing about, who's not putting enough effort into making 551 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: this work. And then when you sit back and really 552 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 1: think about that argument, it's a blessing. Yea. You know 553 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,200 Speaker 1: there's a silver lining in that. It's like, I found 554 00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 1: someone who, through all of this bullshit in the world, 555 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,520 Speaker 1: wants to spend time with me, and through all the bullshit, 556 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 1: I want to spend time with her. That's how I 557 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: keep Kay in a positive regard because I always say 558 00:26:54,640 --> 00:26:56,399 Speaker 1: to her, Babe, I don't think you're doing anything to 559 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,760 Speaker 1: me on purpose. But these things are happening, and can 560 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:03,320 Speaker 1: we address the fact that these things are happening. And 561 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: as we've gotten older, she's been able to be like, 562 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: you know what, I see what you're saying now, Yeah, 563 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:08,879 Speaker 1: you can speak on that. 564 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 2: No, absolutely, I realized sometimes it just boils down to 565 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:18,280 Speaker 2: time management or prioritizing things differently. And we have had 566 00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 2: a lot of moments like that recently where even I 567 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 2: had a revelation recently myself where I realized that so 568 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:27,880 Speaker 2: many things around me were happening but not to me directly, 569 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,560 Speaker 2: and I was sitting in the things happening around me, 570 00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,120 Speaker 2: allowing it to impact me and then of course impact 571 00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 2: our relationship. But I'm just like man, when I really 572 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,359 Speaker 2: go down to the basis of things and I boil 573 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:43,000 Speaker 2: it down to what the root is. Nothing's happening directly 574 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,120 Speaker 2: to me. It's just a matter of how I'm juggling 575 00:27:45,160 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 2: these emotions in this time, allowing myself to feel the 576 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 2: way I feel, asking for the support that I need 577 00:27:51,840 --> 00:27:54,439 Speaker 2: from you, and being honest about how I feel and 578 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 2: not trying to hold in degree for holding the worry. 579 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,719 Speaker 2: And then you can meet me where I am yes 580 00:28:00,880 --> 00:28:04,280 Speaker 2: and effectively figure out how to help each other through 581 00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:04,760 Speaker 2: this moment. 582 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 1: Something you said too really stuck with me. You feeling 583 00:28:08,359 --> 00:28:10,639 Speaker 1: safe to be honest about how you feel. We went 584 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 1: to bathtub two nights ago and I was like, Hey, 585 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: I need you to not worry about my feelings right now. 586 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,520 Speaker 1: Tell me the things that you think I'm doing that 587 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,760 Speaker 1: are bothering you or causing you anxiety. And then she so, well, 588 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 1: but I said, before you say well, but don't worry 589 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,320 Speaker 1: about my feelings in this moment. Just say it just. 590 00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: And that was hard for me because I'm always conditioned 591 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 2: to make sure that he's okay in the same way 592 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 2: he's conditioning I'm sure I'm okay. So it's just like, okay. 593 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 2: I love that we're both taking care of each other. 594 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 2: But he allowed me to be selfish in that moment 595 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:44,880 Speaker 2: and just say how I feel and didn't judge me 596 00:28:44,880 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 2: for what I was saying either. We talk about that 597 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: all the time as well, like not judging your partner 598 00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:50,280 Speaker 2: for how they feel. And I was like, oh shit, 599 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 2: look at us exercising our own advice that we give people, 600 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 2: whether it's in the book or just on the podcast. 601 00:28:54,520 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 2: It's like I felt good and I didn't feel judged, 602 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 2: and Deval didn't then take it and use it against 603 00:28:59,840 --> 00:29:02,120 Speaker 2: me or drag it on further. It was like, yo, 604 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: it stayed in the bathtub, you know what I'm saying, 605 00:29:04,640 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 2: and then we were able to adjust thereafter. 606 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,000 Speaker 1: And to be honest, it's not always even back and 607 00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:11,840 Speaker 1: forth because I won't say, you know, I gave her 608 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:14,760 Speaker 1: that space and she didn't feel judged. But sometimes when 609 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,600 Speaker 1: I give her that, when she gives me that space, 610 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: I do feel judged. But also, when you keep your 611 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,960 Speaker 1: wife in a positive regard, you know that they're not 612 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: judging you because they hate you. She's judging me because 613 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: she feels guilty about what it is. And sometimes then 614 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,680 Speaker 1: the conversation no longer goes to about how I feel, 615 00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,280 Speaker 1: but about how she feels about what I said. But 616 00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 1: since I keep her in a positive regard, it's like, yo, 617 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: let's not let's not go back to that cycle. Let's 618 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 1: just focus on what it is and let's try to 619 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 1: move forward. And I think it's fear that if we 620 00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: understand that it's not even, that's okay too. Everything in 621 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 1: the marriage is not going to be even. And I've 622 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: accepted that that I love this woman enough, and I 623 00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 1: love her more than anything else. So even when it 624 00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 1: ain't even, and that's what I gotta do, because everything 625 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,160 Speaker 1: ain't even on her side either, Like I ain't had 626 00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 1: to carry no god damn babies. You know what I'm saying, 627 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: That that ain't even you know what I'm saying, I 628 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: don't got to deal with the hormonal stuff. So I 629 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:09,120 Speaker 1: just think that if we learn to empathize with each 630 00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:12,400 Speaker 1: other and understand that that person really wants the best 631 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: for me, fighting fear is easy because you're not taking 632 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:15,640 Speaker 1: it personal. 633 00:30:15,720 --> 00:30:20,959 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think as an unlicensed therapist I I'm going 634 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 6: to talk about. 635 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:26,720 Speaker 1: I would have seen here. 636 00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 6: Uh. It sounds like both of you really, you know, 637 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 6: you feel things very deeply, but the way that you 638 00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 6: feel things is different. Like you have a lot of passion, 639 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, and you have a lot 640 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,719 Speaker 6: of empathy. So it seems like when you have conflicts 641 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:44,000 Speaker 6: sometimes it may be easier for you to get to 642 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,840 Speaker 6: a resolution when you feel what he feels, and it's 643 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:49,320 Speaker 6: easier for you to bring up a conflict conflict because 644 00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 6: you have so much passion about the relationship. 645 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 1: Absolutely though, like she literally. 646 00:30:53,240 --> 00:31:04,000 Speaker 8: Just got trouble call trible. 647 00:31:05,920 --> 00:31:06,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I like. 648 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 6: That that people pretend to be doctors every day now. 649 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 1: But you did hit us both on the head there 650 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,840 Speaker 1: because she said that to me. I said, so, you 651 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: know what, I think that is better if I keep 652 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: my opinions to myself. And she literally said to vow, 653 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 1: you are incapable keeping your hands to yourself, and. 654 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:27,840 Speaker 2: It described how you laughed out line that because you 655 00:31:27,880 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 2: know that you're in case he'll be like, you know what, 656 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say this.

It was 675 00:32:22,360 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: it was well. And I say that so that people 676 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:28,400 Speaker 1: understand that learning your partner takes time, right, It's not 677 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:30,880 Speaker 1: we didn't realize that.

That shit don't work. We was, and sometimes 680 00:32:36,520 --> 00:32:39,479 Speaker 1: when we talk about how we used to communicate people 681 00:32:39,720 --> 00:32:41,240 Speaker 1: like people will hear it and be like, oh, they 682 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 1: were rough, Like, yeah, we were. Most people are rough 683 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,480 Speaker 1: in the very beginning. And then the only reason you 684 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:49,200 Speaker 1: stay is because you want to be here. Like I 685 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 1: try to tell people all the time, when we give 686 00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,680 Speaker 1: you advice on what works for us, it only works 687 00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,320 Speaker 1: because we wanted to be here, not because this advice 688 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:00,280 Speaker 1: works for everybody. Trure, it only works for us because 689 00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:03,080 Speaker 1: we both want to be right here. So them first 690 00:33:03,160 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: five years was rough, but again it was worth it. 691 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: Like I do everything I've learned during that time, screaming hollering, cussing, 692 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,080 Speaker 1: being mad. We never left. 693 00:33:12,280 --> 00:33:14,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean you did everything opposite of what I 694 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 2: would have expected in the very beginning when it came 695 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: to communication only because of my background, Like he was 696 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 2: tap dancing on my conflict pet peeves every single day. 697 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:26,800 Speaker 2: I didn't know every single day, And it was just 698 00:33:26,880 --> 00:33:29,640 Speaker 2: I think it was the forwardness that I wasn't accustomed 699 00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: to because of my upbringing and like just my family dynamic, 700 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 2: Like we didn't face conflict head on like that. It's 701 00:33:36,240 --> 00:33:39,400 Speaker 2: kind of like, well it'll blow over to blow over. 702 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:41,560 Speaker 1: No, No, it wasn't wrong because it's just different. 703 00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:43,760 Speaker 2: It's just different. It's just different. But in the in 704 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: the very beginning, I was just like, you know, you 705 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 2: were like the Sandman, just like my nigga who has 706 00:33:50,640 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 2: a conflict pet peas?

In conflict, I try my hardest to stick 711 00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 6: to the topic. Let's stick to what we're talking about, 712 00:34:05,480 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 6: because as soon as you say something mean, I'm out. 713 00:34:08,560 --> 00:34:10,279 Speaker 6: I'm ready to fight.

Yeah, That's why I said. It was 805 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,719 Speaker 2: like a two sided thing for me, because sometimes you 806 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 2: don't you don't want history to repeat itself, so you 807 00:38:10,080 --> 00:38:12,920 Speaker 2: have to reference it, but at the same time, it's like, 808 00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:14,160 Speaker 2: are we gonna keep bringing it up? 809 00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 6: So that was one of my past you know, they 810 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 6: say the body keeps the score.

And so when certain things come up, 813 00:38:24,480 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 6: then you start to feel unsafe, You start to feel 814 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 6: fight or flight. You start to like go back to 815 00:38:28,760 --> 00:38:32,120 Speaker 6: a previous version of yourself that didn't feel acknowledged or 816 00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,600 Speaker 6: safe for whatever it was in a relationship.

We don't have to agree, that's it. 834 00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 1: One of my pet peeves is that if we disagree, 835 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:16,759 Speaker 1: now you don't like me and I don't like you. Yeah, 836 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 1: why do we have to be I don't because our 837 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: ideologies don't always line up.

Yeah, there's one pet peeve 843 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 1: for me. 844 00:39:35,920 --> 00:39:38,359 Speaker 6: It is that that's a really good point. I'm glad 845 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 6: you brought up us arguing because we often do get 846 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 6: into knock down, drag out debates where we are just 847 00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,880 Speaker 6: like so passionate about our point of view. Yeah, but 848 00:39:48,320 --> 00:39:51,879 Speaker 6: I think that one we always are respectful to each other. 849 00:39:51,880 --> 00:39:54,799 Speaker 6: There's never been a time where I can't we have 850 00:39:54,920 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 6: said anything mean to each other or gotten personal or anything. 851 00:39:57,640 --> 00:39:59,279 Speaker 6: We always keep it on topic and we say we 852 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:00,640 Speaker 6: got to say and then we walk away from a 853 00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:05,400 Speaker 6: situation like okay, actually now I understand more about your perspective, 854 00:40:05,480 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 6: or I understand more about you as a person, because 855 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:11,239 Speaker 6: I definitely understand more about your perspective when certain things 856 00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 6: come up. And just like how as a man you think, 857 00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 6: even if you know some things that we talk about, 858 00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 6: in my head, I'm like the value, you would never 859 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 6: do that yourself. So why are you even arguing me 860 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 6: about this? But now I understand your perspective just as 861 00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:27,320 Speaker 6: a man and as a person who believes in fairness. 862 00:40:27,360 --> 00:40:29,160 Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, and believes in certain things. 863 00:40:29,200 --> 00:40:32,160 Speaker 6: So I feel like we fight right. He might want 864 00:40:32,160 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 6: to teach a class on it. 865 00:40:33,239 --> 00:40:35,320 Speaker 1: If we didn't fight right, we wouldn't be able to 866 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:35,759 Speaker 1: work together. 867 00:40:35,800 --> 00:40:38,239 Speaker 2: For you also care about the relationship, which is back 868 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 2: to the root of what you're saying.

I 871 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:47,120 Speaker 6: absolutely know in those instances we're not arguing to try 872 00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 6: to hurt each other or because we don't want to listen. 873 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 6: We're arguing because both of us genuinely think that we 874 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:53,120 Speaker 6: know everything. 875 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:59,040 Speaker 1: Absolutely. I honestly believe that I know everything that I know, yeah, exactly, 876 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: And I know what I I know that I don't 877 00:41:01,239 --> 00:41:03,799 Speaker 1: know everything, but I know what I do know, And 878 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 1: if you're going to change my mind or what I 879 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,040 Speaker 1: do know, you're gonna have to come with some facts. 880 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:08,880 Speaker 1: That's what I think that that's healthy.

We should 886 00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:22,840 Speaker 1: be able to challenge any ideology and be able to 887 00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:24,480 Speaker 1: walk away as a man or a woman and say, 888 00:41:24,480 --> 00:41:25,680 Speaker 1: you know what, I didn't think like that. 889 00:41:26,160 --> 00:41:28,919 Speaker 2: How do you think this pertains to even just like say, 890 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,400 Speaker 2: friendship relationships, right, because Devell and I spoke recently about 891 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 2: just outgrowing certain friends, certain groups of friends, you know, 892 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 2: just with time, with mindset, we're just don't have the 893 00:41:40,160 --> 00:41:43,160 Speaker 2: same things in common anymore. So when it comes to 894 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,200 Speaker 2: not necessarily fighting, but just even communicating within those friendships 895 00:41:46,200 --> 00:41:48,319 Speaker 2: and relationships, Like, how do you know when somebody has 896 00:41:48,960 --> 00:41:51,439 Speaker 2: a relationship like that has ran its course or maybe 897 00:41:51,480 --> 00:41:54,080 Speaker 2: there was a fracture in the relationship because of communication 898 00:41:54,200 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 2: that just made you feel like, you know what this 899 00:41:55,800 --> 00:41:58,279 Speaker 2: person is not even like on my level anymore when 900 00:41:58,320 --> 00:41:59,920 Speaker 2: it comes to communication, how do you know when to 901 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,160 Speaker 2: walk away from relationships like that?

Let me dive right into 967 00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:23,000 Speaker 2: this listener letter for today. Dear Kadeen and Deval, I'd 968 00:45:23,000 --> 00:45:26,200 Speaker 2: love your perspective on something. My boyfriend has a female 969 00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: friend he's had passed flirtation with before we got together. 970 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 2: Since we've been dating, I haven't seen anything suspicious, but 971 00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,680 Speaker 2: they still check in with each other from time to 972 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:38,080 Speaker 2: time via text or phone call, and he's told me 973 00:45:38,080 --> 00:45:40,880 Speaker 2: that they're simply just friends. On Mother's Day, he wished 974 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,560 Speaker 2: her well and she replied thank you with the little 975 00:45:43,800 --> 00:45:47,719 Speaker 2: heart emoji. I told him the situation makes me uncomfortable 976 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: and asked if he could distance himself from that friendship 977 00:45:50,600 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 2: out of respect for our relationship. He told me he 978 00:45:53,160 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 2: wouldn't cut her off and that he's not choosing me 979 00:45:55,800 --> 00:45:59,759 Speaker 2: or her, and was even willing to end our relationship 980 00:45:59,800 --> 00:46:03,520 Speaker 2: if it came to it. My question is, how do 981 00:46:03,560 --> 00:46:07,439 Speaker 2: you balance respecting your partner's feelings with maintaining long term 982 00:46:07,480 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 2: friendships with people you've had past flirtation or dealings with, 983 00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 2: And in a situation like this, is my discomfort something 984 00:46:14,080 --> 00:46:16,799 Speaker 2: he should take more seriously or is that something I 985 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,840 Speaker 2: need to work on through my own Yes, girl, that's you. 986 00:46:20,840 --> 00:46:23,359 Speaker 6: You were insecure. 987 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:28,799 Speaker 2: Is not his responsibility to make you secure. You have 988 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 2: to be secure within yourself as first personally, I didn't 989 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,319 Speaker 2: see anything wrong here. Thank you with the little heart thing. 990 00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:38,840 Speaker 2: People use emojis all the time. I think your insecurity 991 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 2: is probably allowing you to read into this a bit 992 00:46:41,400 --> 00:46:46,719 Speaker 2: more than it is. And if he is like what 993 00:46:46,840 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 2: I think most guys would be like, or deval has 994 00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:50,319 Speaker 2: actually been like this in the very very past, because 995 00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:52,200 Speaker 2: I mean this is twenty three years in. I think 996 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:54,400 Speaker 2: there's been a girl or two where I was just like, well, 997 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:57,719 Speaker 2: what's going on with y'all? And I would pretty much 998 00:46:57,760 --> 00:47:01,040 Speaker 2: try to demand that he not speaks to this person anymore, 999 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:03,959 Speaker 2: and that in turn made him further want to speak 1000 00:47:03,960 --> 00:47:06,960 Speaker 2: to this person more. So, sometimes just putting that restraint 1001 00:47:07,000 --> 00:47:10,879 Speaker 2: on someone or giving them an ultimatum is already off 1002 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,239 Speaker 2: putting in itself, and they're going to probably want to 1003 00:47:13,320 --> 00:47:15,600 Speaker 2: just double down on that just for the sake of 1004 00:47:15,640 --> 00:47:17,840 Speaker 2: doing it. And then it becomes an issue of doubling 1005 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 2: down on the ultimatum and not even what the root 1006 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 2: cause was, which is your discomfort with this friendship. 1007 00:47:22,480 --> 00:47:25,279 Speaker 1: So absolutely true. And some people just don't want to 1008 00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,319 Speaker 1: be controlled me for example, I don't want to be controlled, yeah, 1009 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:30,439 Speaker 1: And I don't want to control you. I don't want 1010 00:47:30,440 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 1: to have to go through your phone and say don't 1011 00:47:32,239 --> 00:47:34,120 Speaker 1: talk to him and him and him and her and him, 1012 00:47:34,400 --> 00:47:36,120 Speaker 1: Because if that's the case, then what are we really 1013 00:47:36,160 --> 00:47:39,200 Speaker 1: doing here. I want you to choose the things that 1014 00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:41,399 Speaker 1: you feel would be comfortable for me on your own. 1015 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,080 Speaker 1: That's how we know we're in this together. If I 1016 00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 1: got to tell you and demand things, then I'm more 1017 00:47:46,800 --> 00:47:49,080 Speaker 1: like a warden, not a partner for sure. And I'm 1018 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 1: not with that. 1019 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, you even said you haven't seen anything suspicious. They 1020 00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 2: check it from time to time phone call of text. 1021 00:47:54,480 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 2: To me, it gives your checking it on a friend 1022 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 2: even if there was something flirtatious in the past. If 1023 00:47:58,600 --> 00:48:00,279 Speaker 2: he's not acting on it, she's not acting on it, 1024 00:48:00,320 --> 00:48:04,399 Speaker 2: you don't have anything tangible that's showing any kind of disrespect. 1025 00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 2: I think that might be more of a you problem. 1026 00:48:07,400 --> 00:48:10,799 Speaker 1: Also, the truth is people can have flirtations in the 1027 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,240 Speaker 1: past with people. When you meet someone that's your one, 1028 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,720 Speaker 1: all those other things don't don't matter. There there are women, 1029 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 1: and are women who I'm still attracted to who I'm like, 1030 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 1: watch a beautiful woman, but will never get my attention 1031 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:25,359 Speaker 1: away from my wife. 1032 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 2: It's just acting with men, you. 1033 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:27,200 Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying. 1034 00:48:27,200 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 2: They always say you're not married, You just married, you not. 1035 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:33,080 Speaker 1: Did like you can't expect that just to go away. 1036 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:35,239 Speaker 1: It's immature as young as you know what I'm saying, 1037 00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:37,759 Speaker 1: and it takes time to get through that for sure, 1038 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:39,520 Speaker 1: because you and I have went through that thing early on, and. 1039 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 2: I wonder how they are. Sounds like a young, young 1040 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 2: young person went through that problem, you. 1041 00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 1: Know what I'm saying. That hasn't been a problem for 1042 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:51,239 Speaker 1: us and a long but in college, nineteen year old 1043 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: delver there right? 1044 00:48:53,280 --> 00:48:56,120 Speaker 2: Why are you looking at you your Facebook messages? 1045 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 1: You know? My nigga's looking at you all the time 1046 00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:02,040 Speaker 1: because they what do you expect them to do? 1047 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:02,279 Speaker 6: Now? 1048 00:49:02,320 --> 00:49:04,720 Speaker 1: I look the other way. It's like the most imagoy. 1049 00:49:05,120 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 4: I can't stand that. 1050 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:07,920 Speaker 5: It is. 1051 00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 6: It feels more important to be trying to cultivate a 1052 00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:16,640 Speaker 6: relationship with a man you can trust and cultivate trust 1053 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:20,160 Speaker 6: between you. Trust isn't something that is automatic. It is 1054 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:23,919 Speaker 6: something that builds over time through small efforts. I think 1055 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,839 Speaker 6: Brene Brown maybe she said that trust is like it's 1056 00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 6: like having a jar and every time somebody does something 1057 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 6: that like kind of builds trust with you, they like 1058 00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,760 Speaker 6: put a deposit into the jar. That's how you build 1059 00:49:37,840 --> 00:49:40,920 Speaker 6: trust with somebody. And so one I don't I feel 1060 00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:44,839 Speaker 6: like her trust from him is fractured because of her 1061 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:48,360 Speaker 6: own insecurities, and his trust from her is fractured because 1062 00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:52,160 Speaker 6: of her own. So you gotta freaking work on that. 1063 00:49:52,280 --> 00:49:56,880 Speaker 6: And personally, if a girl that I like is like 1064 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,719 Speaker 6: even dating somebody else, like we're casually dating, but I 1065 00:49:59,800 --> 00:50:02,680 Speaker 6: like her, I'm stepping my game all the way up. 1066 00:50:02,960 --> 00:50:03,680 Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying. 1067 00:50:03,800 --> 00:50:04,560 Speaker 1: You're gonna choose me? 1068 00:50:04,680 --> 00:50:10,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, to the top right period, like that, watching that 1069 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 2: block that. 1070 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,440 Speaker 6: Yeah black, you don't even got a black R right now, 1071 00:50:13,480 --> 00:50:14,120 Speaker 6: but you will? 1072 00:50:14,360 --> 00:50:14,759 Speaker 3: You will? 1073 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 6: You will, don't you want to? 1074 00:50:16,520 --> 00:50:19,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's exactly. 1075 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,399 Speaker 2: That's exactly how I felt. I was just like, oh, yeah, 1076 00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,800 Speaker 2: you want to send a little text. You think you're cute, Okay, 1077 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:25,760 Speaker 2: I'm gonna show you cute. 1078 00:50:25,840 --> 00:50:28,439 Speaker 1: One thing I will say, I doubled down, like hell, 1079 00:50:28,560 --> 00:50:31,640 Speaker 1: when we first met, I was dating somebody else. Condeen 1080 00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:33,560 Speaker 1: adin't give me no ultimatum. She was just like, yo, 1081 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 1: I don't want to be nobody's number two. You could 1082 00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,160 Speaker 1: do what you want to do. I'm out out and 1083 00:50:38,200 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 1: I was like, you know what I'm saying. But it 1084 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:46,120 Speaker 1: wasn't no text messages and phone calls are you going to? 1085 00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:48,840 Speaker 1: It was just like this, either you choose me or 1086 00:50:48,840 --> 00:50:49,240 Speaker 1: you don't. 1087 00:50:49,400 --> 00:50:51,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just what it was. You know, it was unexpected. 1088 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 2: We didn't expect to end up like this, but it 1089 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:54,840 Speaker 2: was just like, yo, and I know I was catching 1090 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,160 Speaker 2: some feelings feelings, so I'm like, Okay, before I get 1091 00:50:57,160 --> 00:51:00,000 Speaker 2: too deep in this, I'm about to because I wasn't 1092 00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 2: about to tell him go break things off or you know, 1093 00:51:02,400 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 2: if you were in limbo, I can't be the decision 1094 00:51:05,239 --> 00:51:07,960 Speaker 2: maker or the factor. So I just removed myself from it. 1095 00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,840 Speaker 1: And I will say this, you never had any jealous 1096 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:14,439 Speaker 1: jealousy towards that person or any of my exits after that. Now. 1097 00:51:14,480 --> 00:51:16,560 Speaker 1: She was never a bitch. She was never like I 1098 00:51:16,640 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 1: want this. She never was like that.
