1 00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:05,360 Speaker 1: I said this before and I'll say it again. All 2 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:07,240 Speaker 1: women need to have a hot girl something at some 3 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:12,200 Speaker 1: point in their life. Dead ask. I agree. Now the 4 00:00:12,280 --> 00:00:14,400 Speaker 1: question is, can can you run me back on that 5 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:16,079 Speaker 1: hot girl something I'm supposed to have? Or is it 6 00:00:16,120 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: too late? It depends if I have a hoochi daddy summer? 7 00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:31,280 Speaker 1: You got the shorts? You're such a capital girl. Ye. Hey, 8 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:36,040 Speaker 1: I'm Cadine and we're the Ellises. You may know us 9 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,240 Speaker 1: from posting funny videos with our boys and reading each 10 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:42,760 Speaker 1: other publicly as a form of therapy. Wait, I'll make 11 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:46,640 Speaker 1: you need therapy most days. Wow. And one more important 12 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:50,159 Speaker 1: thing to mention, we're married. We are. We created this 13 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:53,680 Speaker 1: podcast to open dialogue about some of life's most taboo topics, 14 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 1: things most folks don't want to talk about through the 15 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: lens of a millennial married couple. That as to the 16 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,280 Speaker 1: term that we say every day. So when we say 17 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:06,319 Speaker 1: dead ass, we're actually saying facts, the truth, the whole truth, 18 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:08,919 Speaker 1: and nothing but the truth. Were about to take pillow 19 00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 1: to up to a whole new level. Dead ass starts 20 00:01:14,080 --> 00:01:23,960 Speaker 1: right now. I'm gonna take us back to summertime two 21 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,000 Speaker 1: thousand and four. This was at the end of my 22 00:01:28,120 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: junior year in college. Your senior year in college, Kadeina 23 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 1: and I, as usual, were going through our typical ups 24 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 1: and downs, ebbs and flows of relationships, right you love 25 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: each other one day, hate each other next day. Right 26 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:44,760 Speaker 1: on top of that, Kadina and I had run into 27 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:50,120 Speaker 1: an issue with her mom where this is very well 28 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,919 Speaker 1: documented that Mimi was very very hard on me, and 29 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:57,240 Speaker 1: at this point I was deciding to not spend any 30 00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 1: time around her side of the family. So when we 31 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: came back to Brooklyn in the summertime, it was just 32 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: at my parents house and then she would go in 33 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:08,600 Speaker 1: time with her family. But I was at my parents 34 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,200 Speaker 1: house the whole time this summer. It was this is 35 00:02:11,240 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 1: when I was in college, Brian was in college, and 36 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: Terry was staying by the house. Shout out Terry Crenshaw. 37 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: But um, this one summer particular, Kadina and I was 38 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: arguing about everything and I was like, you know what, 39 00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: I think we need a break mhm. And Codin was like, fine, 40 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,639 Speaker 1: you want to break the viale, I'll give you a break. 41 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:31,480 Speaker 1: Because I was like, no, no no, no, Ain't, it's about 42 00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: what I want. Do you want to break? And she 43 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: kept saying to me, why do you keep asking me 44 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: if I want to break? And at that point I said, listen, 45 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: if we're gonna do this thing, call forever. I want 46 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 1: you to know for certain that you want to be 47 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 1: with me forever. I think you need to take some 48 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: time for yourself and make a decision of whether or 49 00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:50,160 Speaker 1: not you want to be in this forever. Because we 50 00:02:50,240 --> 00:02:53,280 Speaker 1: kept arguing about what we both wanted, but we couldn't 51 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 1: get on the same page. And at this night, Kadin said, fine, 52 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: let's take a break. I said, in my parents house. 53 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:06,200 Speaker 1: She slept at her parents house. Wake up the next morning. 54 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,960 Speaker 1: The Dean calls me immediately when she wakes up, and 55 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,240 Speaker 1: it's outside of my parents house. And we proceeded to 56 00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:16,440 Speaker 1: spend the next summer the exact same way we spent 57 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 1: the two summers prior together, and we've spent every summer 58 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:32,519 Speaker 1: since then just like that. You ain't none, but mama, 59 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: you ain't none, but mama, you ain't none, but you 60 00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 1: ain't none, but you ain't none but mama? Who comes? 61 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 1: Who knows what movie that's from? Does anybody I give you? 62 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: If I don't know, you don't know, you don't remember 63 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:51,640 Speaker 1: what the song I just remember what well you could 64 00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 1: Dean Joseph right now. But Friday, it was a Friday, Yes, 65 00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,160 Speaker 1: I know it was one of them. Come on, man, 66 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 1: Friday belly. No, it wasn't juicing belly. Belly was a 67 00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 1: little bit late. It was Friday, Friday, alright, Friday, come on, 68 00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 1: you gotta know that. But before we take a break, 69 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: I want to point this out. When they used to 70 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: sing songs about hot girls summers, they would call them 71 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:23,160 Speaker 1: huti mama's. You ain't nothing but to get a webs bit, right, 72 00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:25,880 Speaker 1: But now you got the hot girls talking about hot 73 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: girls summers. And so let's discuss this. After we pay 74 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:38,800 Speaker 1: some of these bills. We'll be back. All right, we're back, Now, 75 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: we're back. I feel like you know about I was 76 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: robbed with my hot girls summer or whatever y'all want 77 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,360 Speaker 1: to call it. Now. Um, I was robbed with it, 78 00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: but not by you, per se. And I robbed myself 79 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: because I definitely told you so'll do what you want 80 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,480 Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, you know, people say, you know I 81 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:01,640 Speaker 1: would be missed if I didn't what I feel remissed. 82 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:03,960 Speaker 1: This is one instance where I was just like, man, 83 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,839 Speaker 1: I could have used the good just just to see 84 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 1: what it was like. You ain't the only thing what 85 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I mean from when I really think about 86 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:16,480 Speaker 1: my twenties. I spent a lot of my time in 87 00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:21,040 Speaker 1: my twenties catering to you and vice versa, and because 88 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:22,839 Speaker 1: we thought that that's what we were supposed to do, 89 00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,640 Speaker 1: right our parents warned us, though both of our moms 90 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 1: warned us to say, hey, y'all get into this a 91 00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,279 Speaker 1: little too early. And if we're being honest, it worked 92 00:05:30,320 --> 00:05:33,800 Speaker 1: out for us, because I mean, we're still here, so 93 00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 1: there's no one way to find yourself in a happy 94 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 1: relationships giving anomaly though, because I don't think this is well, 95 00:05:42,360 --> 00:05:45,880 Speaker 1: there are some statistics that state that doing things the 96 00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:51,680 Speaker 1: way we've done things produce an outcome that's more inclined 97 00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: to be successful in marriages, and we're gonna get to those. 98 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: But before we get to those, I want to hear 99 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 1: why you feel like you missed out on the hot 100 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 1: girl something. Well, because I've never had that experience. Like 101 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:06,279 Speaker 1: I said, you know, going literally from my parents household 102 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: to in essence, your household or whatever we were creating 103 00:06:09,720 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: for ourselves together never really gave me the opportunity to 104 00:06:12,640 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 1: do that and on those moments when we were not together, 105 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 1: you know, whether it was for a week or for 106 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,400 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks. Um, I think my focus at 107 00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: the time was instead of being on myself and not 108 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,680 Speaker 1: just me being out there in these streets, but just 109 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:29,719 Speaker 1: me in general and Cadine as an individual and what 110 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: do you want out of life and you know, what's 111 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:34,240 Speaker 1: gonna make you happy. I think I was more concerned 112 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 1: with how to get back in your good graces, and 113 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,680 Speaker 1: that in turn just completely took my focus away from 114 00:06:39,720 --> 00:06:43,560 Speaker 1: that in general. Um. But yeah, like if I think 115 00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 1: if we both had an opportunity just to just you know, 116 00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:48,680 Speaker 1: go do our things, meet people day and and to me, 117 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:50,839 Speaker 1: it's not even just about sex. It's about just meeting people, 118 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 1: going out juggling men for a little bit, you know, 119 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 1: seeing personalities like that's something that we never had a 120 00:06:56,360 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 1: chance to experience. So do you feel like you you 121 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,839 Speaker 1: missed out on it or do you feel this resentment 122 00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: towards me? Yeah, definitely, no resentment at all. But it's 123 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:05,480 Speaker 1: one of those things like if you could do life 124 00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:07,159 Speaker 1: all over again, or if you could speak to your 125 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,160 Speaker 1: twenty year old self, what would you say. Um? And 126 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: in those moments. That's definitely what definitely what it would 127 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: have been is like, you know, go out there and 128 00:07:14,400 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: just see what's out there. And then the crazy part 129 00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: is the people who are out there never want to 130 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: be out there, just like, damn, there's nothing here. So 131 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: that's what I was going to say, because my boys 132 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:25,080 Speaker 1: who are still saying today and some of them who 133 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 1: did enjoy their twenties just live in life. Um, for me, 134 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: it is fomo, right, or it was fomo because I 135 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: never had that true bachelor pad life where I could 136 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,360 Speaker 1: just juggle women and not think about it because even 137 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 1: on the times we have breaks when I entertained other women, 138 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: in the back of my mind it was like, I 139 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,520 Speaker 1: can't go too far, do too much because I don't 140 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: want to disrespect codeine. So I never had a chance 141 00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 1: to really go out there really, So even in those moments, 142 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,239 Speaker 1: you know, I do sometimes feel like, Dan, what would 143 00:07:56,240 --> 00:07:58,440 Speaker 1: it have been? Like, you know, it's just fomo. But 144 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 1: then I not boys who'll be like, you don't miss 145 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: out on much because I was out there and it 146 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:07,080 Speaker 1: gets shallow and it feels good in the beginning, but 147 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:10,160 Speaker 1: then after a while it gets overally fast. Say the 148 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: you know my female friends, who I speak to her 149 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 1: in that boat or who maybe back in that boat 150 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 1: now after a divorce, for example, Like you know they're 151 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,720 Speaker 1: just like man, you know they over here. It's nothing 152 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,840 Speaker 1: to be concerned about because there's just nothing here. But 153 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: I want to speak to my fear and why. I 154 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 1: know a lot of people gonna be like, yo, do 155 00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: why would you push your your girl to go out 156 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:31,960 Speaker 1: and have a hot girl somewhere? Right? Let me be clear, 157 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: I never pushed codeine out. It was never that my 158 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,720 Speaker 1: biggest fear in life, right, because I don't like to 159 00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: be caged. If that's one thing you know about me, 160 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 1: people say it's everything, or I don't. I don't know 161 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 1: what it is. I don't like to feel like I 162 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: have to be somewhere. It doesn't matter. If it's a relationship, 163 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: it doesn't have a matter. If it's work, it doesn't matter, 164 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,320 Speaker 1: even if it's my kids. Right, if someone asked me 165 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: to do something, For example, Jack said, hey, Dad, uh, 166 00:08:57,920 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 1: don't forget to turn on the pool because we have 167 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: so and so. Right, got you, bro, I'm gonna turn 168 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 1: on the pool. Ten minutes later he goes, Dad, turned 169 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: on the pool. Now I'm not doing it just because 170 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 1: you told me you wanted me to do it in 171 00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: that moment. That it's not being petty, it's just I 172 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: want to be able to make the choice for my being. Like, 173 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,240 Speaker 1: I don't want to ever feel an obligation to someone 174 00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: because I don't feel like we owe each other anything. 175 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 1: We're supposed to choose whether or not we want to 176 00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: do life together. So I never wanted to grow up. 177 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:31,440 Speaker 1: And then midway through my midlife, my wife says, you 178 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: know when I never really wanted all of this. I 179 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:35,680 Speaker 1: never got a chance to be by myself. I'm leaving 180 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 1: because that happens to people, right. People go into life 181 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: trying to emulate other people's lives, searching for happiness. Right. 182 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,800 Speaker 1: So it's like, wait a minute, if I do everything 183 00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: like that couple over there, I'm gonna be happy. And 184 00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: now you find yourself in your thirties, forties, sometimes fifty 185 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,000 Speaker 1: and say, wait a minute. I emulated everything I saw 186 00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 1: for someone else, and I'm not happy. I just realized 187 00:09:56,120 --> 00:09:58,559 Speaker 1: I don't have to do this, and I'm gone. I 188 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,719 Speaker 1: never wanted to be married to someone and have that 189 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,120 Speaker 1: person say that to me, so in my mind was like, listen, 190 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 1: I feel like a Dean is my future. I have 191 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,840 Speaker 1: to give her some space and latitude to be able 192 00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 1: to say no, I really just want to be with 193 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:15,319 Speaker 1: Devout because I want to be with Devout, not because 194 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:17,600 Speaker 1: he's selling me. I have to be here. So that 195 00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: was my whole purpose. Now I get that. I mean 196 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 1: taking the obligation out of anything, I think makes you 197 00:10:22,040 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: really decipher is this something that I want to do voluntarily? 198 00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: You know? Or not? Um? But yeah, this this Houcci 199 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,199 Speaker 1: Daddy short and hot girls summers. I feel like it's 200 00:10:32,200 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: like the latest, the latest trend at least with is 201 00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:36,760 Speaker 1: it just everyone? I don't know if it's a generational 202 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:38,720 Speaker 1: thing or if everybody is buying into it, if it's 203 00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: a social media hype um, But it seems to be 204 00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 1: for the single young people. And we just want to know, 205 00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:48,680 Speaker 1: are these moments of debauchery an obstacle to a future marriage? Well, 206 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: we can, we can talk a little bit about to 207 00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: a married future. We were talking about it from a 208 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:57,920 Speaker 1: woman and man's standpoint, and we were having this conversation 209 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: with a bunch of friends who are and then women, 210 00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: and we were going through the timeline for men and women. Right, 211 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,280 Speaker 1: So just listen to this timeline. If you're a young 212 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: woman and you're attracted by the a sixteen seventeen typically 213 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 1: sixteen seventeen year old women, you see it now and 214 00:11:12,559 --> 00:11:15,760 Speaker 1: you've seen it back then. Those young ladies were often 215 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,080 Speaker 1: looking at older men for attention. We all know that 216 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,080 Speaker 1: girl in high school that had the oldest picking her 217 00:11:21,160 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 1: up outside and then you see junior senior year she 218 00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,080 Speaker 1: having a baby or something like that. Yet, so we 219 00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 1: all in Brooklyn, we saw it all the time. All 220 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,720 Speaker 1: of the hot girls who were sixteen seventeen were getting 221 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 1: attention from the twenty year old plus guys when we 222 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,960 Speaker 1: were in high school. But those sixteen and seventeen year 223 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:42,280 Speaker 1: old boys typically were left feeling like, there's nothing I 224 00:11:42,320 --> 00:11:45,040 Speaker 1: can offer her, right there's There was a meme that 225 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,400 Speaker 1: was out a couple of weeks ago they said men 226 00:11:47,559 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: are the only beings on earth that are not loved unconditionally. 227 00:11:50,720 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 1: Right For for example, with children, you love unconditionally, you 228 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 1: don't expect anything from him. A woman, if she's beautiful, 229 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 1: you can love her, you know, unconditionally. But a man, 230 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 1: no matter what he looks like, has to be able 231 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 1: to provide something in order for someone to love him. 232 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:06,720 Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think women it can be 233 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: very conditional with women. What yo, there is no woman 234 00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 1: on earth that's gonna just say I'm just gonna love 235 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,040 Speaker 1: a man with no ambition that just just sits at 236 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:23,360 Speaker 1: home and just loves on me. There's always but even 237 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:25,200 Speaker 1: vice versa. Is there a man that just wants to 238 00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,959 Speaker 1: love a woman that's just at home doing nothing? Really? 239 00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,400 Speaker 1: Trophy wives, that's yeah, that's under a condition though, because 240 00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,240 Speaker 1: when it looks fade, then what what you doing then? 241 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: But those conditions change depending on whoever is putting in 242 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: for that wife, right, So a trophy wife to certain 243 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,400 Speaker 1: people looks different ways. So you don't have to look 244 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: a certain way to be a trophy wife. There are 245 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: women who are stay at home wives that some people, 246 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: and you know them, say how does she get picked 247 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 1: to be a trophy wife because she doesn't fit what 248 00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 1: you think is pretty? But someone does. How many trophy 249 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,360 Speaker 1: husbands do you see on planet Earth? Let's be honest, 250 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:03,360 Speaker 1: if we're gonna be dead as yeah, yeah, I worked 251 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:06,319 Speaker 1: for this, but you cute? That was that? You know 252 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. I'm saying that to say that I 253 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: feel like some women too can get away with. You know, 254 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,720 Speaker 1: people can't get away with certain things. You can, like, 255 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:15,199 Speaker 1: if the woman is going to be a stay at 256 00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 1: home woman, she has to look good. That's the condition 257 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 1: under which she'll be able. But she only has to 258 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:21,719 Speaker 1: look good to that man. She doesn't have to look 259 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,439 Speaker 1: good to society. So what I'm saying is that if 260 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 1: this person, you're making more of a general statement. This 261 00:13:26,600 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: team was a general state, the mean was a general statement, 262 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:31,520 Speaker 1: and you know all general statements is like I always say, 263 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,200 Speaker 1: general statements, general statements is the devil's work because you 264 00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:37,679 Speaker 1: can't put everyone under one umbrella. We always say that. 265 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is, if you look at history, right, 266 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: and everything we're talking about now has to be put 267 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,520 Speaker 1: in the context of history, there's no vacuum, which means 268 00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: there's always things around it, right, it came before and after, right. 269 00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,959 Speaker 1: But when you look at women, for example, there's no 270 00:13:53,000 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: condition that a woman has to be able to provide 271 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 1: a lifestyle for a man in the content of history 272 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: in order for her to be deemed enough to be 273 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,480 Speaker 1: a good enough wife. It just has to be that 274 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: that woman has to be desirable enough for that man 275 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,240 Speaker 1: for him to say I want her. I mean, there's 276 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,480 Speaker 1: some women taking care of men because the hoochie daddy 277 00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: shorts of expose them they are, and then that's what's 278 00:14:16,160 --> 00:14:20,560 Speaker 1: getting them by daddy shorts. But let me ask a question, though, seriously, though, 279 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,240 Speaker 1: how long does that last before women be like this 280 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 1: bumask nigger sitting on my couch not doing nothing that happens. 281 00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:30,400 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. There's a condition at some point 282 00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: he has to be able to provide something or else 283 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: he going he's providing something, all right, it's in the 284 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:39,760 Speaker 1: hoochie daddy short. But yeah, I get Do you get 285 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,720 Speaker 1: what I'm saying or you're just trying to deflect because 286 00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: you know that's what I'm doing. That's what you're doing, 287 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,960 Speaker 1: because you completely get what you're saying. I'm just saying 288 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,000 Speaker 1: that I feel like, like you said, it's a very 289 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: general statement. So of course it's going to be a 290 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: question to I was just playing Devil's advocate the same 291 00:14:53,560 --> 00:14:55,320 Speaker 1: way you like to. And and and this is what 292 00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,280 Speaker 1: I'm saying. Imagine being seventeen or sixteen years old, right, 293 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: and all the girls that you like seventeen like older men. 294 00:15:02,880 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: So those young women spend most of their late teens 295 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 1: early twenties, dealing with older men, dealing with older men issues, right, 296 00:15:11,360 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: A lot of times they get dragged through the mud, 297 00:15:14,600 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 1: right because those older men were pretty much using you 298 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:20,920 Speaker 1: for your youth. Right. But during those times, this is 299 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: these are my huchi mama tims. These are my times 300 00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have a hot girl summers. You and your twenties, 301 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: you live in your life because ultimately, when you're in 302 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: that point in your life, you don't really have to 303 00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,000 Speaker 1: provide anything to get attention from men. You just have 304 00:15:33,080 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: to look good, right. Me and my boys talk about 305 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,520 Speaker 1: this all the time. When you get to a point 306 00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: as a man and you start asking women to go 307 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 1: out on dates, they ask questions like where are we going, 308 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,200 Speaker 1: what are we eating, what are we drinking? You don't 309 00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: really ever ask a woman that when you're going out 310 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 1: on dates, you know what I'm saying. So I want 311 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:53,200 Speaker 1: people to think about this. A woman has her time 312 00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:57,440 Speaker 1: late teens, twenties, right, A man has to spend that 313 00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 1: time to do what build him self up to be 314 00:16:02,320 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: what They're still figuring things out. Man particularly, I would 315 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 1: say things probably hit for a man in his thirties, 316 00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:11,000 Speaker 1: and that's the man who's been working at whatever it 317 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: is he's been working at. I'm glad this is not 318 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 1: even just some dude that just as existing. I'm glad 319 00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:17,400 Speaker 1: this is somebody who is deliberate and diligent, and this 320 00:16:17,480 --> 00:16:19,400 Speaker 1: is the man who's like, I'm taking all the necessary 321 00:16:19,400 --> 00:16:21,360 Speaker 1: steps to be able to build whatever life it is 322 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,240 Speaker 1: I'm trying to build. So boom. Men in their twenties 323 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 1: have their hucchie face sometimes and it's like they know 324 00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,560 Speaker 1: some cougars who just want to get dick down. Right, 325 00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: Men don't have a problem feeling objectified. We don't, all right. 326 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,840 Speaker 1: I remember playing football and you be on campus and 327 00:16:38,920 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 1: you walk around with no shirt on, your hucchie daddy shorts, 328 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:46,240 Speaker 1: girdles or great sweatpants and all the women has got 329 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 1: everything to say. But as men, we don't have a 330 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,200 Speaker 1: problem with that because we don't mind being to embraced. 331 00:16:51,200 --> 00:16:55,120 Speaker 1: The cat calls and absolutely, yeah, absolutely, And I've never 332 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 1: in my life ever felt uncomfortable with being cat called 333 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 1: by women. And you have to to stand. Like we 334 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 1: talked about the context of history, there's a power dynamic, 335 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,199 Speaker 1: right if I, as a man, when close to two 336 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,600 Speaker 1: hundred pounds is getting cap called by a woman. The 337 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,840 Speaker 1: average height of a woman is about five five and 338 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 1: twenty pounds. If she wants to get aggressive with me, 339 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:18,719 Speaker 1: I can defend myself. Right For a woman, it's not 340 00:17:18,800 --> 00:17:21,440 Speaker 1: the same thing. If you are dressed a certain way 341 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: and you come across some asshole who decides he wants 342 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:27,320 Speaker 1: to be aggressive, it's a little bit more intimidating. That's 343 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,960 Speaker 1: why the dynamic between hoochie mamas and hohochie daddies are different. 344 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean one is right and one is wrong. 345 00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:37,640 Speaker 1: We just explained the dynamic. But for for the young 346 00:17:37,680 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: men who are living their twenties and there for that 347 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 1: for that point, is just the hoochie daddy, right, who's 348 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: gonna deliver dick to an older woman or a woman 349 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,680 Speaker 1: who got her life figured out just want to get 350 00:17:47,680 --> 00:17:50,680 Speaker 1: banged out. Men don't mind doing that because we also 351 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:52,439 Speaker 1: in the back of our mind. Nos, there's gonna come 352 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:54,240 Speaker 1: a point in time when I get my finances in 353 00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,800 Speaker 1: order and I get to be the one looking from 354 00:17:56,800 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: my hoochie mama. And then is he doing that with 355 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 1: a woman in his in her twenties that's the thing, 356 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 1: or is he looking for somebody his age because I'm 357 00:18:05,200 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 1: here in the struggle. Now is the thirty some things? 358 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: Once you hit that age as a woman, thirty something, 359 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,160 Speaker 1: men ain't check it for you either. So now let's 360 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: let's not And I'm glad you asked that question. It's 361 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: perfect time and we're talking about ages right in our twenties. 362 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: There's something that's very real, and it's called the biological clock. 363 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: Women once they passed thirty and even more further past 364 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:32,719 Speaker 1: thirty five, it becomes more difficult to conceive, carry and 365 00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:37,200 Speaker 1: deliver a baby healthily. You see what I'm saying. So 366 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 1: a lot of times what we're noticing is what happens 367 00:18:39,359 --> 00:18:41,520 Speaker 1: is that women will have their time and their fun 368 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: in their twenties where they can control the dynamic because 369 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 1: they're young, they're beautiful, they want to have their fun. 370 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:50,439 Speaker 1: But now you get to thirty and you want someone 371 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 1: to say, hey, I want her to be my wife. 372 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,560 Speaker 1: It takes time to get to know someone. But now 373 00:18:57,600 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: you're asking men the same age, who is now thirty, 374 00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 1: who finally, at thirty may have reached the point where 375 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: he can fully embrace his ability to have fun because 376 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,560 Speaker 1: now he has the resources to be a catch. Remember 377 00:19:10,560 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 1: in your twenties, when you don't have anything, you're not 378 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,280 Speaker 1: really a catch, so you're not getting the opportunities that 379 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: your female counterparts are because if you're younger in your twenties, 380 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: you get all of these older men who have money, 381 00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:23,919 Speaker 1: who have fame, who have power, who could say I 382 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:26,480 Speaker 1: want her. So you're feeling like, you know, oh, I 383 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,120 Speaker 1: got him to choose me as a man. When you're 384 00:19:29,160 --> 00:19:31,680 Speaker 1: in your twenties, you don't have anything to offer, You're 385 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:34,800 Speaker 1: pretty much dealing with the leftovers. You see what I'm saying, 386 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: Because those young women are searching for the dudes with 387 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: all women who have it already. You're not the guy 388 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:42,199 Speaker 1: who has money. It's very few women who say I 389 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: want to build with someone my age in their twenties, 390 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: because both of you are still trying to figure things. 391 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:48,560 Speaker 1: That's what I was about to say. It seems like 392 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: it just makes more sense to try to build with 393 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: somebody younger. Though I feel like you and I at 394 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: different points and have spoken to different people, have told 395 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: them younger people than us when asking for advice or 396 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 1: how do we make it work, or what we've been 397 00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 1: doing to, you know, get to the point we're at. 398 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:07,600 Speaker 1: We usually advise them not to stay together or be 399 00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:10,680 Speaker 1: too serious too early, kind of like what our parents did. 400 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:13,400 Speaker 1: But it did work for us because we were able 401 00:20:13,440 --> 00:20:16,760 Speaker 1: to grind together. And I think in that respect respect 402 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,080 Speaker 1: each other's hospital and each other's process to get to 403 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: where we are today. But think about some of the 404 00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: flat that we catch right when we say we had 405 00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: say when we talk about we had a break island 406 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:27,800 Speaker 1: and then they could just go out and do whatever 407 00:20:27,840 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 1: he wants to come back. Na, my chick can't go 408 00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 1: on no break and come back. Oh devouche did not 409 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 1: that cannin just sticking around and get cheated on. Think 410 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 1: about all the things that we have been through, that 411 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,800 Speaker 1: we've weathered, the storm that people criticize and criticized and 412 00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: crucify us for. Right, there's a lot of young people 413 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,560 Speaker 1: who are like, I don't want to go through that level. 414 00:20:47,600 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: I don't want to go through that, So let me 415 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:51,560 Speaker 1: get everything out of my system. Because the truth of 416 00:20:51,600 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: the matter is being a young person in today's society 417 00:20:54,680 --> 00:20:57,640 Speaker 1: with the attention that young women are getting being over sexualized, 418 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: and the attention that young men are getting for wearing 419 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 1: quote unquote who she daddy shorts? Right, it's difficult to 420 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 1: be twenty two and twenty two and you're both attractive 421 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,040 Speaker 1: and getting attention from all over the place, where all 422 00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,760 Speaker 1: these options and stay committed to each other and give 423 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,720 Speaker 1: each other space. It's extremely difficult. It was difficult for 424 00:21:13,800 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 1: us to do in the early right. And that was 425 00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,639 Speaker 1: that was before what social media just became a thing. 426 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:23,960 Speaker 1: It was black planet. You know, Facebook just started, but 427 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,640 Speaker 1: there was no Instagram, and it was no quick swiping 428 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: and no quick likes, like it didn't happen that fast. 429 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: So what I'm realizing is that once these both these 430 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,480 Speaker 1: people get to their thirties, now a young lady is like, yo, 431 00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: I need to find someone because I want to have 432 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: a baby before I turned thirty five. So her first 433 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,040 Speaker 1: thing is now she wants to date deliberately. And now 434 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: you're trying to date young men who are in the 435 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:49,520 Speaker 1: early thirties who are like, wait a minute, I finally 436 00:21:49,560 --> 00:21:51,919 Speaker 1: reached my point in the power dynamic. Why have money? 437 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: So then it becomes a thing of well, he's immature, 438 00:21:55,160 --> 00:21:58,040 Speaker 1: he's in his thirties. Shouldn't you want to do this? 439 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,200 Speaker 1: Shouldn't she want to do that? Now you're judging other 440 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: people for the question that they're in in their life exactly, 441 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:07,800 Speaker 1: just like, are we even equipped to do that necessarily? 442 00:22:08,200 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 1: That's I mean to be honest, that's that's really what's happening. 443 00:22:12,359 --> 00:22:14,320 Speaker 1: Because we see a lot of thirty a lot of 444 00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: our friends who are thirty plus who are like, I'm 445 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:18,520 Speaker 1: ready to find somebody better, be ready to go. So 446 00:22:18,560 --> 00:22:21,280 Speaker 1: now it's two months into dating and it's okay, so 447 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 1: what are we doing. He's like, whoa, I just got 448 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: to a place of financial security at thirty. You know, 449 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: I finally got some money in my four one k 450 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 1: I finally been able to own a nice apartment. Not 451 00:22:34,320 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: not the apartment that you saw, but but a nice 452 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:39,399 Speaker 1: apartment with a view. I may want to enjoy the 453 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,600 Speaker 1: fruits of my labor for a couple of years. And 454 00:22:41,600 --> 00:22:43,399 Speaker 1: now she's just like, well, I'm not going to hang 455 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 1: around for it. Now she's jumping from guy to guy 456 00:22:46,240 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: waiting for someone to say I want to take you on, 457 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 1: and she starts with her thirties too. But those early 458 00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,560 Speaker 1: thirties men are like, I'm not ready right now. I 459 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 1: want to spend some time in my thirties enjoying life 460 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,920 Speaker 1: like you enjoyed your life when you were in your twenties, 461 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,239 Speaker 1: going on trips with ball players, going on. Think about it. 462 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:09,359 Speaker 1: Think about all the girls you knew you bowl or 463 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:11,960 Speaker 1: going all to the events, getting flown here and phone here. 464 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 1: Now he's in a place in his early thirties. Well, 465 00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:16,439 Speaker 1: he wants to do some of the flying out. He 466 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: wants to get some young girls and have fun. And 467 00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 1: now the girls in his age bracket are saying, you 468 00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:25,200 Speaker 1: acting immature. No, ma, he's doing to the young girls 469 00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 1: what you were getting done to you by the older 470 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:30,240 Speaker 1: gentleman when you were in your twenties, and that vicious 471 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: cycle together though, think about it. The thirties can't get 472 00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 1: it together. And all the women are saying the men 473 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,439 Speaker 1: and their thirties and immature. All of the men and 474 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: their thirties are saying, now you just want me to 475 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: do things on your time. Then you become thirty five, 476 00:23:42,800 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: then you become thirties. Six thirties is a very awkward 477 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: place now that I look at it, here's the crazy part, right, 478 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:52,840 Speaker 1: crazy awkward, y'all.

Is it even genuine really interactions 494 00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,920 Speaker 1: happening at this point or are they happening after we've 495 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 1: trying to kind of sculped out the scene to see 496 00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 1: who may potentially have what. Listening to my single friends, 497 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:44,120 Speaker 1: both male and female, everybody comes in with a calculator 498 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,680 Speaker 1: in their mind that they've already sized people up. For example, 499 00:24:48,720 --> 00:24:51,720 Speaker 1: one of my boys, right says, he goes into a club, 500 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: he can look at the girls right and be like, okay, 501 00:24:54,440 --> 00:24:56,640 Speaker 1: she looks really young. This is her first time out 502 00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 1: in the streets. She's gonna be looking for the trade songs, 503 00:25:00,040 --> 00:25:03,439 Speaker 1: the Drake's, Chris Brown's. She's I'm gonna give for about 504 00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,479 Speaker 1: three or four years to get, you know, go through 505 00:25:05,520 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: that hot girl some. But then when she about seven, 506 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 1: she'll be back down to the guys who you know, 507 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,720 Speaker 1: work on Wall Street or may have a good six 508 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:16,119 Speaker 1: figure job. Once she realized she's not gonna get chose 509 00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: by the people who she admired the most, that's when 510 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,399 Speaker 1: she'll come back. But then she says, like, then you 511 00:25:22,440 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 1: have the five year old crowd where you know, let's 512 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,640 Speaker 1: go on a date. So then the minute we sit 513 00:25:28,680 --> 00:25:30,920 Speaker 1: down and go on a date, some of these women 514 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:32,399 Speaker 1: are like, how much money you got you for one k? 515 00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 1: What's your five year plan? How many kids you want 516 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: to have? They want to know how long and how 517 00:25:37,960 --> 00:25:39,359 Speaker 1: long do you think you should date someone before you 518 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:42,040 Speaker 1: get engaged, And they're asking follow up questions that their 519 00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 1: therapist told them they should ask somebody. Okay, so now 520 00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 1: we're having a mini therapy session now because we are 521 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:52,280 Speaker 1: going to therapy and we're aware of what we like 522 00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 1: and we don't like, and we want to know what 523 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:59,560 Speaker 1: we're attracting, so and that the therapizing people. That group 524 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 1: right now is very critical of each other because here's 525 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 1: the reality. When you become thirty five and you're in 526 00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: a rush to have kids, if you're a young woman, 527 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: you can't put everyone else on your timeline because now 528 00:26:11,800 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 1: you have goals for yourself. You want to get done 529 00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 1: before a certain age. You see what I'm saying, it's 530 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:19,000 Speaker 1: hard to meet someone and say, look, I'm thirty five, 531 00:26:19,040 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 1: I'm trying to have a baby by next year, so 532 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: what's up? What are we doing? Most men are not 533 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 1: going to respond well to that. You understand what I'm saying. 534 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: And if you're a man in thirty five and you're 535 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:31,239 Speaker 1: trying to date women, you have to be open to 536 00:26:31,280 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 1: the fact that what she's dealing with is very real. 537 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,280 Speaker 1: A woman at that age doesn't have time to sit 538 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:38,280 Speaker 1: down and let you figure it out for five to 539 00:26:38,359 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 1: ten years. It's unfair. So if you're dating deliberately with 540 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:46,119 Speaker 1: women your age, understand what they're coming to the table 541 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,399 Speaker 1: four before you even sit down with this woman and 542 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 1: take her time off. So I'm wondering now if it 543 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:57,040 Speaker 1: really makes sense. For example, dating apps right, I'm thinking 544 00:26:57,080 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 1: about chopping for an outfit, I go to a particular 545 00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 1: the website. I know that I want something in a 546 00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:04,480 Speaker 1: certain color family. Am I going to look through the 547 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: entire catalog of dresses? Or am I going to filter 548 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 1: the search for what exactly is I'm looking forward to 549 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: at least narrow it a bit. So with the dating app, 550 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,680 Speaker 1: for example, we have all these different ones out there. 551 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 1: I don't even know the names of them, because I 552 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: don't I'm not dating, But I know that there are 553 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:22,080 Speaker 1: certain ones that are designed for certain people looking for 554 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: specific things. So, for example, I've heard that there's an 555 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 1: app for people who are i think either separated, newly divorced, 556 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 1: or going through a divorce. So you can meet people 557 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:36,920 Speaker 1: within that same bubble that you're in and then filter accordingly, 558 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:41,720 Speaker 1: knowing at least I'm starting with someone, Yeah, I'm starting 559 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:43,840 Speaker 1: with someone who at least is on the same platform 560 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 1: as me for the same reason. So that, to me, 561 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 1: I think makes the most sense. I think it gets 562 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 1: a little bit hairier when you're like out in public 563 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:51,520 Speaker 1: at an event or at the club or whatever, and 564 00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:53,320 Speaker 1: then it's just like you don't know what's going through 565 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 1: people's minds. But I can see more and more now 566 00:27:55,560 --> 00:27:58,360 Speaker 1: why people are leaning on dating apps and see why 567 00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 1: people enjoy that. We just had a couple of recently 568 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: and they met on a dating app. And I didn't 569 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 1: ask the actual app, but it was just like they 570 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: already had so many things in common that it filtered 571 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:09,400 Speaker 1: and then here they are. You know what I mean. 572 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: But I mean, if you, if you think about that, 573 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 1: it makes the most sense. Imagine imagine being a man 574 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:17,680 Speaker 1: or a woman, and you you go into a bar. 575 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,680 Speaker 1: First of all, where do you meet people nowadays? Right? 576 00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,960 Speaker 1: Like that's the big question. Everyone is working so much. 577 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: Where do you meet people? Is it at church? Is 578 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:27,960 Speaker 1: it at the bar? Is that family function of the pandemic? Right? 579 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,159 Speaker 1: So you meet someone, you don't know how old this 580 00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,480 Speaker 1: person is, You don't know what their ideals are you, 581 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 1: but but you know that you're on a time crunch, right, 582 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,920 Speaker 1: You'd rather have something filtered already, so I know if 583 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: if this person is on my profile, if I matched 584 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 1: with them, all of these things have already been decided. 585 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: We don't have to waste each other's time trying to 586 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,120 Speaker 1: figure that out. That's what it makes the most sense. 587 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 1: The other issue there is you don't know if people 588 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:52,959 Speaker 1: are being honest on these apps. You don't know if 589 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: you're being catfished. There's there's so many different variables. But 590 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:59,000 Speaker 1: the most important thing is I think we as people 591 00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:03,560 Speaker 1: have to start understanding these dynamics that are happening and 592 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:08,520 Speaker 1: stop just putting blanket statements on people without understanding where 593 00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:12,280 Speaker 1: we are as people. For example, men, I can't deal 594 00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 1: with a woman in her thirties because they just being 595 00:29:13,960 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: a rush to do everything. You have to understand why, right, 596 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: our bodies don't change much. We don't go through periods, 597 00:29:20,840 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. We don't have phallopian tumbs 598 00:29:22,680 --> 00:29:24,640 Speaker 1: and eggs. There aren't doctors telling us we need to 599 00:29:24,680 --> 00:29:26,880 Speaker 1: have a baby about thirty five or else. Our chances 600 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:30,880 Speaker 1: are gonna diminish, uh increase greatly. So you have to 601 00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,520 Speaker 1: understand what a woman is coming through coming to the 602 00:29:33,600 --> 00:29:37,080 Speaker 1: dating world with if you're looking for that, and I 603 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: always say if you're looking for that, because there's also 604 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 1: a contingent of people out there who are just out 605 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 1: there to have fun, which is perfectly fine, and you 606 00:29:45,480 --> 00:29:48,760 Speaker 1: can't get upset if you're trying to date deliberately and 607 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:51,480 Speaker 1: that person just wants to have fun, and you keep 608 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:53,880 Speaker 1: entertaining that person just wants to have fun and then 609 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: being upset because that person doesn't want to date deliberately. 610 00:29:57,400 --> 00:29:59,760 Speaker 1: That's not that person's fault. We've seen that time and 611 00:29:59,800 --> 00:30:02,640 Speaker 1: time again. Oh man, it always starts off cute. Oh, 612 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:04,840 Speaker 1: it's just fun. We're having a good time. That somebody 613 00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,400 Speaker 1: feelings getting in the way, and the other person is saying, 614 00:30:07,680 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 1: but I was specific, I was honest, and I said 615 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 1: what I wanted and I said what I was looking 616 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:15,600 Speaker 1: for is not this, and then feelings get hurt. And 617 00:30:15,680 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: the thing is it goes both ways. I've seen it 618 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 1: a couple of my friends who are older gentlemen who 619 00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:23,840 Speaker 1: now exists in the space where they're they're part of 620 00:30:23,880 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 1: the pick right when when people walk in a club 621 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: of walking somewhere, they can tell, oh, he has money, 622 00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:32,720 Speaker 1: Oh he has some sort of power. So now they're 623 00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,320 Speaker 1: getting access to different levels of women that they didn't 624 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,680 Speaker 1: get access to before, and they try to choose one. 625 00:30:39,320 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 1: But these young women are living on a different plane 626 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:45,560 Speaker 1: right there, and the midsweies. Some of them making money, 627 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: some of them aren't. But they're like, yo, I'm trying 628 00:30:48,000 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: to have fun. You are one of four or five 629 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:53,480 Speaker 1: dudes I'm talking to, and some of my boys got 630 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:58,280 Speaker 1: their feelings hurt, like yo, I thought I had and 631 00:30:58,560 --> 00:31:01,720 Speaker 1: she chose to They said, she chose the streets.

So he was trying to lock it down. 636 00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: She was just like, not so much, because now he's 637 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,200 Speaker 1: at the point where it's boring now chasing all these 638 00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: young girls. I want to get me a young girl 639 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 1: that I can settle down with. And sometimes you try 640 00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,840 Speaker 1: to find one of these young girls to settle down 641 00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 1: with and they're like yeah, shout like that's that's the 642 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:39,880 Speaker 1: thing that was.

It's like 676 00:33:14,080 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: he's been with a lot of women, a lot of 677 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,920 Speaker 1: different type of women. He's just like, there's nothing more. 678 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:19,920 Speaker 1: He's like, He's like, he gets to a point. Now 679 00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 1: he meets a woman within five minutes, he knows exactly 680 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:25,400 Speaker 1: where it's going to go. But he got his he 681 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: got his feelings hurt because he thought that once he 682 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,600 Speaker 1: was able to provide a certain lifestyle that women say 683 00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:35,080 Speaker 1: they want, once he presented that opportunity to a young lady, 684 00:33:35,120 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 1: she would automatically be like yes. And then he asked 685 00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: a young lady like, yo, you're trying to go exclusive 686 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,120 Speaker 1: and she was just like, no, not really, I'm having 687 00:33:42,160 --> 00:33:45,280 Speaker 1: too much fun.

Maybe he might still be available. You never know, 703 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 1: because at that point, what is she gonna do? Now? 704 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,000 Speaker 1: Try to force the guy that's within her age range. 705 00:34:37,040 --> 00:34:40,320 Speaker 1: Now what's happening out here to settle down. That's the 706 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:43,239 Speaker 1: sure as five way to not be with somebody and 707 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,759 Speaker 1: find yourself crazy crazy. All she want to do is 708 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:49,680 Speaker 1: lot me down or now, but you know, no, I 709 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 1: give it. Then it becomes a thing of desperation. It's like, okay, 710 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:58,520 Speaker 1: get happening. Both sides. Both sides are playing playing a 711 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:03,480 Speaker 1: very dangerous game that could end up in loneliness because 712 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 1: they're trying to put you know, they're trying to find 713 00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:10,319 Speaker 1: happiness in this fleeting, this fleeting feeling of happiness in 714 00:35:10,360 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 1: the streets, in the streets, and this is what I think. 715 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 1: I think you should have a hot girl somewhere too. 716 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,000 Speaker 1: But when you prolong the hot girl summer and think 717 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 1: that that life is going to wait for you to 718 00:35:20,080 --> 00:35:24,160 Speaker 1: be ready, that's when you find yourself in a predicament. 719 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: And it's not only for women woman too, but it 720 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,439 Speaker 1: does happen more to women because once you get past 721 00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:35,280 Speaker 1: certain age and you you're worried about trying to have children, desire, 722 00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,000 Speaker 1: and I think that's ultimately what it's. It's it's sent 723 00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,760 Speaker 1: you around. Yeah, so that biological clock thing is actually 724 00:35:40,840 --> 00:35:43,879 Speaker 1: a very very it's very real. It's very very real. Yeah, 725 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: it's We have some stats and facts here, and this 726 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: one is kind of a little bit different and kind 727 00:35:48,480 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 1: of switches gears with the conversation a bit um, but 728 00:35:51,520 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: it is UM from the Institute for Family Studies Nicholas 729 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,320 Speaker 1: Wolfinger Um he's a sociologist at the University of Utah, 730 00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: found that Americans who have only ever slept with their 731 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 1: spouses are most likely to report being in a very 732 00:36:05,640 --> 00:36:08,160 Speaker 1: happy marriage. So that if you've only had that one partner, 733 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:13,400 Speaker 1: I don't know if there's many people in life left. 734 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 1: I'm about to say, when when were these folks at 735 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: the lowest odds of marital happiness about points lower than 736 00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:29,160 Speaker 1: the ones that one partner woman belong to the women 737 00:36:29,239 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: who have had sex with six to ten sexual partners 738 00:36:32,200 --> 00:36:34,680 Speaker 1: in their lives. For men, they're still a dip and 739 00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:37,920 Speaker 1: marital satisfaction after one partner, but it's never as low 740 00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 1: as it gets for women. So if you out there 741 00:36:40,400 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 1: haven't too many hot girls somes this bro, But is 742 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: it because there's more to compare to? That's now? Now? 743 00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 1: Do you sort of mean that I sent you with 744 00:36:51,880 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: the story telling? The woman was telling the story about 745 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:57,759 Speaker 1: on every floor there was there was a man. Right, 746 00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:00,640 Speaker 1: So there's a department store when you can get a 747 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:04,640 Speaker 1: husband on first floor, you find a husband who's financially stable, right, 748 00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:07,359 Speaker 1: And every time you go up in floors you get 749 00:37:07,440 --> 00:37:10,480 Speaker 1: something new. But if you decide that you don't want 750 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:13,480 Speaker 1: what's new, you can't go back down. M hm. So 751 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:16,359 Speaker 1: there was five floors, No, no, you're not losing something 752 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,479 Speaker 1: SAPs on the first floor, she meets a man who's 753 00:37:18,480 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 1: financially stable. Right, so she says, this is great, but 754 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: I want to see what's on the next floor. On 755 00:37:24,719 --> 00:37:27,040 Speaker 1: the second floor, she gets a man that's financially stable 756 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: and he's romantic. He's like and romantic. I just gotta 757 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:33,680 Speaker 1: see what's on the third floor. On the third floor, 758 00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:39,800 Speaker 1: she gets a man who's financially stable, romantic, and god fearing. Wow. Okay, 759 00:37:39,840 --> 00:37:42,319 Speaker 1: so that he has everything, but I gotta see what's 760 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:44,520 Speaker 1: on the fourth floor. Gets to the fourth floor as 761 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: a man who's financially stable, god fearing, um, supporter of 762 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:53,080 Speaker 1: his wife, and loves kids. So it's like, this man 763 00:37:53,160 --> 00:37:56,760 Speaker 1: has everything, but I gotta see what's on the fifth floor. 764 00:37:57,239 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: They get to the fifth floor and there's three billion 765 00:38:00,000 --> 00:38:03,080 Speaker 1: women and the sign that says this floor proves that 766 00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,239 Speaker 1: no matter how good of a man you are, a 767 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:09,880 Speaker 1: woman is never satisfied. And there was a woman telling 768 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: this to a groupful of women. They were all laughing, 769 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:16,240 Speaker 1: but they were all shaking their heads because no matter 770 00:38:16,320 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 1: what in life, they're always going to be looking for 771 00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,239 Speaker 1: the next best. But is that man or woman? I 772 00:38:20,280 --> 00:38:23,320 Speaker 1: think that's anybody know. I don't think men are necessarily 773 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:26,439 Speaker 1: quick to just say, yeah, I'm satisfied because she looks good, 774 00:38:26,520 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 1: she can cook, she can clean, she has a job. 775 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: I think you can't can else. I don't. I don't 776 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: think you can put a generalization over all people ever. 777 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: But there's always truth in jest. And when people talk 778 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 1: about the nagging wife who's always complaining and the husband 779 00:38:44,200 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 1: who's always trying to work hard to make sure that 780 00:38:46,120 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: their wife is happy, but he never finds way to 781 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,239 Speaker 1: make her happy, there has to be some truth in 782 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,480 Speaker 1: that for it to be a running joke. You know 783 00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:56,879 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, because you hear so many women saying 784 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: my mom was my husband simple? All he wanted to 785 00:38:58,560 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 1: do is this all the time? I don't need it, 786 00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Like, think about our parents, 787 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:03,799 Speaker 1: Think about your mom and dad, Think about my mom 788 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:07,560 Speaker 1: and dad. Right, my father be chilling, your pos be chilling. Right, 789 00:39:07,840 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: Your mom always wants what more, bigger, grander. My mom 790 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:14,160 Speaker 1: want to go places, want to try, but want to 791 00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,120 Speaker 1: do this. Your fathers want to sit there. There has 792 00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:18,000 Speaker 1: to be some truth in the fact that it's very 793 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 1: difficult to please. Because on the converse side of things, 794 00:39:20,760 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: if you ask our dads, They've tried this, they've tried that, 795 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,799 Speaker 1: you've done that, and she still ain't happy. So I 796 00:39:25,840 --> 00:39:28,359 Speaker 1: clocked out. Ask a woman what she want to eat? 797 00:39:29,120 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 1: Can we go to the restaurant? It takes you forever 798 00:39:31,560 --> 00:39:33,319 Speaker 1: to pick something me while I go in there and 799 00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:35,479 Speaker 1: what I know what I want. I'm gonna get that boom. 800 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:36,839 Speaker 1: That's the same thing I got last time. I'm good 801 00:39:36,840 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 1: with that boom, But you like you get the same 802 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,879 Speaker 1: thing all the time, lady, because I like it as 803 00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: I'm not supposed to like what I like. But you 804 00:39:43,440 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: don't try anything now. But in my defense, I'll be like, 805 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: how about I get this, you get that and we share. Okay, 806 00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 1: that works. But there's also us going shopping and I 807 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 1: know exactly what I want and I go in and 808 00:39:56,880 --> 00:40:00,600 Speaker 1: get it. Baby, I need options. Only expect me to 809 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:01,840 Speaker 1: walk into one store and pick up the first thing 810 00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: I've seen and be done with it. No, no, Now, 811 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,600 Speaker 1: we're gonna shop on every rack, every possibility. I might 812 00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: buy the whole store. I might return half of it, 813 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:16,799 Speaker 1: but at least I had. But I'm not saying that 814 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,440 Speaker 1: it's active for everyone because I hate generalizations. But I mean, 815 00:40:20,480 --> 00:40:22,960 Speaker 1: there has to be something to the fact that women 816 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,040 Speaker 1: are a lot more difficult to please because women like options. 817 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,520 Speaker 1: Women want to see. So if you have a woman 818 00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 1: who's been with six to ten men and she's constantly 819 00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 1: comparing one to another. How many times have we had 820 00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: friends who wives have said to their husband's, how come 821 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:40,959 Speaker 1: you don't act like mom? It's very rare. We've heard 822 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:42,879 Speaker 1: a man say that to their wife. Have to think 823 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:46,640 Speaker 1: about it, but we've heard that. We've heard the former 824 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,799 Speaker 1: a lot. So as a woman, you can tell me 825 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,160 Speaker 1: maybe if you have more partners, maybe it's more difficult 826 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 1: for you to figure out what you like because you've 827 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 1: experienced more. Maybe that's the problem. I don't know, because 828 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,799 Speaker 1: I'm not a woman, you know what I'm saying. I 829 00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 1: think that might be part of it. I think for 830 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,920 Speaker 1: anybody though, because men to what you think about it? 831 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:06,960 Speaker 1: For example, Well now I'm just saying, for example, think 832 00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,239 Speaker 1: about for a man, you are sleeping with a bunch 833 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:12,040 Speaker 1: of different women, right you finally settle down, you marry 834 00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:16,240 Speaker 1: your wife. Do you have an instance where you think, damn, 835 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:18,719 Speaker 1: my wife is great, but she ain't doing it like 836 00:41:19,080 --> 00:41:21,920 Speaker 1: such and such did it? Or then you then you 837 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:24,520 Speaker 1: rank women in terms of like who did this? Because 838 00:41:24,520 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 1: women do it all the time. Absolutely, you know what 839 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,440 Speaker 1: I'm saying. I'll be very honest in my little group 840 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,480 Speaker 1: chats and stuff like that. It's just like, yeah, you know, 841 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:33,239 Speaker 1: this one was good for that. This one was good 842 00:41:33,239 --> 00:41:36,640 Speaker 1: for the pickup and the drop down and the wrestling moves. 843 00:41:37,040 --> 00:41:38,880 Speaker 1: He was good at giving head like there was. People 844 00:41:39,000 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 1: are good for different things. So is it just that 845 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 1: you have more people to compare it to and that 846 00:41:42,920 --> 00:41:45,880 Speaker 1: creates the unhappiness because it's a longing for something that 847 00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:48,600 Speaker 1: your spouse may not be doing. I think it comes 848 00:41:48,640 --> 00:41:52,520 Speaker 1: down to settling, right. If you choose to settle down 849 00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 1: with someone that doesn't meet your standard, you can't blame 850 00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 1: that person. You settled your dumbass down. Nobody forced you 851 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:04,480 Speaker 1: to settle down, right. So, if you have standards for yourself, 852 00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,239 Speaker 1: and this is just this is really not even about 853 00:42:06,239 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 1: this topic, but this is about life in general. If 854 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,239 Speaker 1: you have standards that you have for yourself that you say, 855 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,279 Speaker 1: I want these things out of life. I want my 856 00:42:14,440 --> 00:42:17,880 Speaker 1: partner to have these things. But then you decide to 857 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,800 Speaker 1: settle for someone who hasn't met your standards for whatever reason. 858 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: May it could be biological clock, it could be finances, 859 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:27,040 Speaker 1: it could be time, it could be society. You now 860 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:28,920 Speaker 1: have to deal with the fact that that person doesn't 861 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: meet your standards. You can't blame that person for not 862 00:42:31,719 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 1: meeting with your standard, you know what I'm saying. So 863 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,280 Speaker 1: my thing is, if you have a bunch of options 864 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 1: and you have things to choose from, it's in your 865 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 1: best interests to either tell the person you want to 866 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:43,399 Speaker 1: spend the rest of your life with that these are 867 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:45,319 Speaker 1: all of the things that I like. Can you meet 868 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 1: me here or say I'm sorry. I have to find 869 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,440 Speaker 1: someone who is willing to do all of these things. 870 00:42:52,200 --> 00:42:54,600 Speaker 1: And that's where you and I have done. We sat 871 00:42:54,640 --> 00:42:57,000 Speaker 1: down and said these are all the things that I want, 872 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,359 Speaker 1: right and we've asked each other what do you need? 873 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:03,879 Speaker 1: And I've said, okay, if these are things you need, 874 00:43:03,960 --> 00:43:06,279 Speaker 1: I'm going to work my tail off to provide that 875 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:08,360 Speaker 1: so that I can be everything that you need in 876 00:43:08,360 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: a husband. And you've done the same thing for me. 877 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 1: But it only works when you have that honest conversation 878 00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 1: about this is what I need. See those conversations that 879 00:43:16,840 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 1: happen before the marriage. Because we heard of a situation 880 00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 1: recently where someone was very upset because their wife, who's 881 00:43:24,680 --> 00:43:27,120 Speaker 1: now a rest a new wife, pretty much says she's 882 00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,960 Speaker 1: not giving head anymore because that's not what wives do, Like, 883 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:33,600 Speaker 1: that's not within the domain or the scope of what 884 00:43:33,719 --> 00:43:36,800 Speaker 1: she deems necessary for a wife to do for her husband. 885 00:43:37,200 --> 00:43:39,399 Speaker 1: And it was kind of just like, oh, my gods 886 00:43:39,400 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 1: clutching the pearls in their edges, because isn't that the 887 00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,040 Speaker 1: point where you're supposed to turn that ship up for 888 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:47,040 Speaker 1: your husband or not? You know what I'm saying. And 889 00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:49,680 Speaker 1: it's just like, I'm sure if this conversation was had beforehand, 890 00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:51,680 Speaker 1: there would have been a lot more to think about. 891 00:43:52,040 --> 00:43:53,920 Speaker 1: Thank you. See, I was I was going to say 892 00:43:54,040 --> 00:43:56,600 Speaker 1: what you just said. There is no because you're a 893 00:43:56,600 --> 00:43:58,880 Speaker 1: wife you have to give head, or because you're a 894 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 1: wife you don't. You didn't have to give head. The 895 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,440 Speaker 1: conversation is as a wife, this is what I prefer 896 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:07,279 Speaker 1: to do. As a husband, What do you need? And 897 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:11,520 Speaker 1: if my needs match your wants, then we're good. And 898 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:13,960 Speaker 1: then I get to say, you know, at this point, well, okay, 899 00:44:14,040 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: you don't want to give head. I like head, this 900 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,680 Speaker 1: ain't gonna work. But if we get married under the 901 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:20,359 Speaker 1: pretense that you're gonna be giving me head. No one 902 00:44:20,360 --> 00:44:22,839 Speaker 1: I like head, And after we get married, you say, no, 903 00:44:23,200 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 1: that's deceitful. You know what I'm saying, that's messed up. 904 00:44:27,040 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 1: Though you knew I couldn't even I couldn't even co 905 00:44:31,200 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 1: sign on that when I'm sorry one thing, No, you 906 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,879 Speaker 1: don't because you're great the sloppy. But what I what 907 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,720 Speaker 1: I'm saying is we also have to stop putting generalizations 908 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 1: on our own marriage, meaning that everyone else says this 909 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:47,200 Speaker 1: is what I should need, Well, this is what I 910 00:44:47,200 --> 00:44:49,879 Speaker 1: should want, So I'm gonna I'm gonna want and need that. 911 00:44:50,320 --> 00:44:53,440 Speaker 1: If you don't want or need that, don't require your 912 00:44:53,480 --> 00:44:57,000 Speaker 1: partner to provide that because they're not providing you anything 913 00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:59,360 Speaker 1: that you want or need. That's busy work. You know 914 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:01,360 Speaker 1: what I'm saying that it's busy work. Well we have 915 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:04,640 Speaker 1: to start doing is saying, listen, these are my wants 916 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:08,000 Speaker 1: and needs. Anything you want to provide with my wants 917 00:45:08,000 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 1: and needs and more, that's on you. But this is 918 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:12,680 Speaker 1: what I want to need. If you can't provide me that, 919 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:15,040 Speaker 1: let's make a decision to not be together. You know 920 00:45:15,040 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, as opposed to saying, well, according to 921 00:45:18,520 --> 00:45:20,480 Speaker 1: men in this book, You're supposed to be giving me 922 00:45:20,520 --> 00:45:23,120 Speaker 1: head twice a week. That never works. What if you 923 00:45:23,200 --> 00:45:24,799 Speaker 1: what if you're a guy you don't like he don't 924 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:26,759 Speaker 1: know many guys who don't like her. But what if 925 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 1: you're a guy who don't like that and your wife 926 00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:30,319 Speaker 1: is trying to do something for you because she read 927 00:45:30,360 --> 00:45:32,359 Speaker 1: somewhere that all of these other men like this. Well 928 00:45:32,360 --> 00:45:33,920 Speaker 1: that's what I was one into a homegirl. I was like, 929 00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,239 Speaker 1: did she is that something that she read somewhere that said, like, 930 00:45:37,320 --> 00:45:39,920 Speaker 1: you're not supposed to do that. Wives don't do that anymore? 931 00:45:40,000 --> 00:45:42,200 Speaker 1: Or is that something that she just developed? Because now 932 00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:46,400 Speaker 1: what's gonna happen is that I'm sure that the story 933 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:49,080 Speaker 1: will be. Can you believe that we kind of divorce 934 00:45:49,160 --> 00:45:51,719 Speaker 1: because I won't give head everything else I do for him, 935 00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 1: everything else that we had our entire life, And that's 936 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:56,800 Speaker 1: the reason why our marriage didn't work because I refused 937 00:45:56,800 --> 00:45:59,080 Speaker 1: to do that. That's that one thing, that's exactly what 938 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:01,200 Speaker 1: that's probably that's what the story is gonna be. And 939 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:08,920 Speaker 1: everyone's gonna say that he's what shallow, shallow and selfish? Shallow? Yikes? Crazy? Um, 940 00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:11,600 Speaker 1: But yeah, So that that just was interesting because I 941 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 1: always wondered that, like, is it the thing where people 942 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 1: who have had prior sexual partners to their spouse, particularly 943 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:19,759 Speaker 1: those who are having the hot girl summers in the 944 00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: hook Dad? And you can compare and rank and you know, 945 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: put that little flow chart together of who did what better? 946 00:46:25,560 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 1: Does that also to become an issue because you're comparing, 947 00:46:29,840 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 1: you know, the scenario that you've had in the past 948 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:34,400 Speaker 1: to what you're in now. Look, I'm I'm always one 949 00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:38,319 Speaker 1: for good for healthy competition. I don't mind. I don't 950 00:46:38,360 --> 00:46:41,359 Speaker 1: mind competing. I'm competing in everything in my life. So 951 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:45,719 Speaker 1: for me, I think competition brings the best out of people. Right, 952 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:51,400 Speaker 1: that that pressure to perform because you're you're uncomfortable is 953 00:46:51,440 --> 00:46:53,920 Speaker 1: what makes you great. Right, And I know that sounds 954 00:46:53,920 --> 00:46:56,360 Speaker 1: like a sports analogy, but that really is an analogy 955 00:46:56,480 --> 00:47:00,520 Speaker 1: for all aspects of life. Right when you partner and 956 00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:03,600 Speaker 1: think about this, young ladies and young men, right, how 957 00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 1: often do we take our partners for granted until someone 958 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:09,960 Speaker 1: else starts showing interest in that same partner that you're 959 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:14,280 Speaker 1: taking for granted. Think about it starts as earlier junior 960 00:47:14,360 --> 00:47:16,960 Speaker 1: high school? Right? Early is junior high school? You like 961 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 1: this girl? Right? You like this girl, you know, you 962 00:47:19,680 --> 00:47:22,200 Speaker 1: don't know how to approach or whatever that uh, you 963 00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: notice someone else taking a liking too that girl. Now 964 00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:28,160 Speaker 1: it's like I gotta say something because I can't let 965 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:32,279 Speaker 1: him talk to her. That that's been happening since junior high. 966 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,759 Speaker 1: This is my fish fisher in the sea, this is 967 00:47:36,800 --> 00:47:40,120 Speaker 1: my fish. Or you got a young lady and she's 968 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:42,320 Speaker 1: been your girlfriend and you've been taking up for granted 969 00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 1: because someone else is paying attention to you. So now 970 00:47:45,120 --> 00:47:47,360 Speaker 1: you're starting to you know, I like her, but this 971 00:47:47,400 --> 00:47:49,839 Speaker 1: other girl right here and she's okay, she's okay. So 972 00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 1: now you're starting to look at this other lady until 973 00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,120 Speaker 1: you notice that there's a guy paying attention to the 974 00:47:54,120 --> 00:47:56,800 Speaker 1: girl that you're with right now. Then it's like what 975 00:47:57,440 --> 00:47:59,879 Speaker 1: you want? You want her? Why? What is it about 976 00:47:59,880 --> 00:48:02,319 Speaker 1: her that you want? Maybe I have something that I 977 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:05,880 Speaker 1: don't realize I have and it took someone else paying attention. 978 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:10,239 Speaker 1: That's why I believe that healthy competition is good. I 979 00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:12,960 Speaker 1: believe that it's healthy for a relationship as long as 980 00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,839 Speaker 1: both people are committed to being of service to each other. 981 00:48:17,040 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 1: That don't mean that you just always look for someone 982 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:22,759 Speaker 1: else to take your attention away. But it's life. We 983 00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,279 Speaker 1: don't owe each other nothing. There's nothing that stamped from 984 00:48:25,320 --> 00:48:27,840 Speaker 1: the beginning of time and said Codeine belongs to devout 985 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 1: and Devot shouldn't have to do anything to earn Codeine's love. 986 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,600 Speaker 1: There's nothing that says that, and vice versa. Know what 987 00:48:34,600 --> 00:48:36,520 Speaker 1: I'm saying, I get that, I agree with that. Or 988 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,480 Speaker 1: what about the scenario of the woman that's just like 989 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:40,759 Speaker 1: or the couple it could be man or a woman 990 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:42,799 Speaker 1: that's together for a long time, whatever whatever, And then 991 00:48:42,840 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 1: you know, this one starts to fall off a little bit. 992 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:46,920 Speaker 1: You know, you're not keeping yourself up me and not 993 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,399 Speaker 1: keeping myself up me. But you hear that, and then 994 00:48:49,440 --> 00:48:53,080 Speaker 1: it becomes they break up. Then you see either homeboy 995 00:48:53,120 --> 00:48:55,359 Speaker 1: or her and girl and gym hard trying to get 996 00:48:55,400 --> 00:48:57,680 Speaker 1: back you can, trying to get back in shape because 997 00:48:57,680 --> 00:49:01,319 Speaker 1: why we're not together anymore. You see somebody looking at 998 00:49:01,400 --> 00:49:03,759 Speaker 1: your X or you might be on a break or 999 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 1: whatever the situation is. It's like, damn, let me, let 1000 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:07,560 Speaker 1: me get in the gym real hard to get back 1001 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,000 Speaker 1: so he could see what he's missing. I never happened that. 1002 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,480 Speaker 1: I'm not. That happened too. And it's just like damn bro, 1003 00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 1: damn sis. If you were trying to keep yourself together 1004 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:23,919 Speaker 1: beforehand while you were with your person, wouldn't be over there. 1005 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:29,680 Speaker 1: If you put the same energy into your appearance while 1006 00:49:29,680 --> 00:49:32,000 Speaker 1: you're with someone as you do during a hot girl 1007 00:49:32,080 --> 00:49:35,960 Speaker 1: someone or who you daddy summer, your relationship will thrive 1008 00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:38,960 Speaker 1: at least at that level. Right Because people tend to 1009 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 1: say it's ok to let yourself go you fell in love. 1010 00:49:41,280 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 1: No it's not. And for the reason you said, it's 1011 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 1: just the reason why why somebody got to break up too. 1012 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:49,919 Speaker 1: Then I'm gonna be the best version of myself. Why 1013 00:49:49,920 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 1: wouldn't you want to be the best version of yourself 1014 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:53,799 Speaker 1: for the person that you chose to spend the rest 1015 00:49:53,840 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 1: of your life with. To me, they say it's shallow 1016 00:49:56,680 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 1: to be on someone about their parents. I think it's 1017 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,600 Speaker 1: extremely lazy and self is for you to feel like, well, 1018 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:03,839 Speaker 1: now that I found my person, I'm gonna just let 1019 00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:07,600 Speaker 1: myself go and give them less than the best version 1020 00:50:07,640 --> 00:50:11,520 Speaker 1: of myself. Think about how selfish that is. Oh, you 1021 00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:14,080 Speaker 1: love me, fine, Now that you love me and you've 1022 00:50:14,120 --> 00:50:17,279 Speaker 1: proclaimed your love for me, I'm gonna give you less 1023 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:21,240 Speaker 1: than what I can give because I'll give strangers my best. 1024 00:50:21,960 --> 00:50:24,600 Speaker 1: I give them my best, but you proclaimed your love 1025 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:26,239 Speaker 1: for me, so now I'm gonna give you less than 1026 00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:28,600 Speaker 1: my best. That doesn't make any sense because you just 1027 00:50:28,600 --> 00:50:30,200 Speaker 1: should be used to it and love me for who 1028 00:50:30,280 --> 00:50:33,000 Speaker 1: I am. I'm sorry, don't make sense to me unless 1029 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:34,760 Speaker 1: you have a health Unless you have a health issue 1030 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 1: and you can't keep yourself up, which most of the 1031 00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 1: time your partner understands. But if you're just being lazy, 1032 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 1: you're pushing your partner to a hoochie daddy someone or 1033 00:50:44,680 --> 00:50:46,440 Speaker 1: a hot girl someone.

I'm like, she's just like, she's like, I 1077 00:52:45,440 --> 00:52:51,160 Speaker 1: can't the nipples be acting. There's their own entity, especially 1078 00:52:51,200 --> 00:52:53,880 Speaker 1: after breastfeeding four boys. They don't know whatever they want 1079 00:52:53,920 --> 00:52:55,960 Speaker 1: to they feel like doing. Let me explain something to 1080 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,719 Speaker 1: so listen.

I appreciate that about you. Guys appreciate you. 1169 00:57:57,680 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: So after listening to the get It Right, Get It 1170 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:03,160 Speaker 1: Tight episode, I have concerns. My partner thirty one and nine, 1171 00:58:03,960 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 1: have been together for six months and he's pretty much 1172 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:08,760 Speaker 1: ideal for me. However, he does not work out and 1173 00:58:08,800 --> 00:58:12,200 Speaker 1: lives a sedentary lifestyle. He's a bigger guy, which I 1174 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 1: have no issues with, but I would have an issue 1175 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 1: if he continues to grow in size. On the other hand, 1176 00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm into fitness and I've been working out for years. 1177 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:23,160 Speaker 1: I've always been into sports at a young age and 1178 00:58:23,160 --> 00:58:25,560 Speaker 1: have played some sports at a collegiate level, so I'm 1179 00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:27,840 Speaker 1: really it's really second nature for me. I mean the 1180 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:29,520 Speaker 1: gym three or four times a week, and I eat 1181 00:58:29,560 --> 00:58:34,160 Speaker 1: moderately healthy. I've figured out that what works best for me, 1182 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,479 Speaker 1: and I've been maintaining that for years. At one point, 1183 00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:40,040 Speaker 1: my man was three hundred plus pounds before we met 1184 00:58:40,080 --> 00:58:42,280 Speaker 1: and decided to change his lifestyle and lost a hundred 1185 00:58:42,280 --> 00:58:46,000 Speaker 1: plus pounds with dining and weightlifting. However, once he lost 1186 00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:49,880 Speaker 1: the weight, he stopped living that life. I have a 1187 00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:51,680 Speaker 1: three year old. I have a three year old with 1188 00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:54,600 Speaker 1: the busy schedule and oftentimes I have to choose between 1189 00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:57,200 Speaker 1: the gym or spending time with my man. He mentioned 1190 00:58:57,240 --> 00:58:58,959 Speaker 1: that he wants to start going back to the gym, 1191 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:01,360 Speaker 1: and I've invited him to go with me frequently, which 1192 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:04,800 Speaker 1: she's declined, so I stopped asking. It's been eight months 1193 00:59:04,840 --> 00:59:08,120 Speaker 1: and I haven't seen him exercise once, and some of 1194 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:11,200 Speaker 1: his bad eating habits and lifestyles are rubbing off on me. 1195 00:59:11,560 --> 00:59:14,560 Speaker 1: She put the sad face in their child no Accountability partner. 1196 00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:17,600 Speaker 1: I'm concerned that he'll gain more weight and eventually have 1197 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:20,200 Speaker 1: health issues. Not working out is a big deal breaker 1198 00:59:20,280 --> 00:59:24,480 Speaker 1: for me. I know he's he, I know he's I 1199 00:59:24,520 --> 00:59:27,040 Speaker 1: know he's capable. However, I also don't want to put 1200 00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 1: pressure on him or give him an ultimatum because I 1201 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,440 Speaker 1: don't want him to think that I'm not attracted to him. 1202 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,680 Speaker 1: I feel like this might be my person, and we 1203 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 1: talk about marriage and longevity. However, I know for a 1204 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:39,240 Speaker 1: fact that I won't invest or spend my life with 1205 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:43,320 Speaker 1: someone who does not halfway prioritize their health. He doesn't 1206 00:59:43,320 --> 00:59:45,240 Speaker 1: know I feel the strongly about this, or that I'm 1207 00:59:45,280 --> 00:59:48,360 Speaker 1: waiting on him. Why won't he go to the gym 1208 00:59:48,400 --> 00:59:51,640 Speaker 1: with me, but expresses that he wants to go. Should 1209 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 1: I tell him my concerns to convey a sense of urgency? Yes? 1210 00:59:55,440 --> 00:59:57,760 Speaker 1: How do I express these concerns without my partner feeling 1211 00:59:57,840 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 1: self conscious or a shame? How long it's too long 1212 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:03,640 Speaker 1: to wait for a change. I don't know what to do. 1213 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:06,800 Speaker 1: Please let me know what you guys think. All, Okay, 1214 01:00:06,800 --> 01:00:09,439 Speaker 1: there's a couple of red flags here. First of all, 1215 01:00:10,280 --> 01:00:13,360 Speaker 1: when she said that, um, she's attracted to him, but 1216 01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:16,000 Speaker 1: she doesn't want to tell him that. She doesn't want 1217 01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:18,680 Speaker 1: him to continue to gain more weight because she doesn't 1218 01:00:18,680 --> 01:00:21,480 Speaker 1: want him to think that she will be unattractive to him, 1219 01:00:21,520 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 1: but she will be unattracted to him. So you can't 1220 01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,680 Speaker 1: not want to say something to your partner because you 1221 01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:31,240 Speaker 1: don't want them to feel or think that you're unattractive attracted? 1222 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,120 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, Like that to me is 1223 01:00:33,120 --> 01:00:37,959 Speaker 1: the recipe for disaster, because that's what most relationships carry on. 1224 01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:39,880 Speaker 1: I don't I don't want to say anything to my 1225 01:00:39,960 --> 01:00:42,440 Speaker 1: partner about this because it hurt my feelings, because I 1226 01:00:42,480 --> 01:00:44,440 Speaker 1: don't want them to think that they hurt my feelings. 1227 01:00:44,720 --> 01:00:47,880 Speaker 1: But your feelings are hurt you have to let your 1228 01:00:47,920 --> 01:00:51,120 Speaker 1: partner know, open, honestly and in real time, how you 1229 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 1: feel about things, your truth. If whether it hurts your 1230 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:57,560 Speaker 1: partner or not, it's still your truth and you have 1231 01:00:57,600 --> 01:00:59,480 Speaker 1: to live in your truth or you're going to have 1232 01:00:59,560 --> 01:01:03,880 Speaker 1: resentment towards yourself and ultimately your partner. That's that's the 1233 01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:06,520 Speaker 1: first thing, the red flag. The second red flag here, 1234 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:08,800 Speaker 1: Codeine and I talk about health and fitness all the time, 1235 01:01:08,840 --> 01:01:14,160 Speaker 1: and people often equated to being vain or just looks Codeine. 1236 01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:15,960 Speaker 1: I say this to Condin all the time, and Codine 1237 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:19,160 Speaker 1: stop me if I'm lying. I say, Codeine, you and 1238 01:01:19,240 --> 01:01:22,000 Speaker 1: I are in this thing called life together. We have 1239 01:01:22,080 --> 01:01:26,320 Speaker 1: a responsibility to be here for each other health wise 1240 01:01:26,480 --> 01:01:29,600 Speaker 1: as long as we can. If you choose to live 1241 01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:32,960 Speaker 1: a lifestyle that is not conducive with us being healthy, healthy, 1242 01:01:33,040 --> 01:01:35,160 Speaker 1: it's not fair to me and it's not fair to 1243 01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,320 Speaker 1: your children. It does have something to do with being vain. 1244 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:41,080 Speaker 1: But I want my wife to be healthy. When you've 1245 01:01:41,080 --> 01:01:44,560 Speaker 1: lived through someone going through postpartum pre clampsion and her 1246 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 1: blood pressure being high and realizing that health, healthy eating, exercising, 1247 01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:53,600 Speaker 1: and and sleep can help, that that becomes more important 1248 01:01:53,600 --> 01:01:55,840 Speaker 1: than what she looks like like a lot of our 1249 01:01:55,880 --> 01:01:58,600 Speaker 1: conversations really have nothing to do with the scale. I 1250 01:01:58,640 --> 01:02:01,280 Speaker 1: don't I don't weigh my wife. I don't measure her waist. 1251 01:02:01,520 --> 01:02:02,880 Speaker 1: A lot of it is, yo, did you did you 1252 01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:04,920 Speaker 1: work out today? You were supposed to walk for twenty minutes? 1253 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:07,440 Speaker 1: You didn't. What does that mean for your heart? Right? 1254 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:08,800 Speaker 1: That's kind of like the rule that I think we've 1255 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:12,240 Speaker 1: adopted as this household, even my father, my father who 1256 01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:13,880 Speaker 1: is also getting up there in age, my mother, my 1257 01:02:13,920 --> 01:02:16,520 Speaker 1: mom plays tennis three times a week. My father, who 1258 01:02:16,560 --> 01:02:19,680 Speaker 1: also too, all his life was just a very sedentary lifestyle. 1259 01:02:19,800 --> 01:02:21,320 Speaker 1: I mean, he did work on his feet, and he 1260 01:02:21,400 --> 01:02:26,120 Speaker 1: worked in the hospital for years. But twenty minutes a day, anybody, 1261 01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:29,240 Speaker 1: everybody should be doing at least that much, and not 1262 01:02:29,520 --> 01:02:32,080 Speaker 1: twenty minutes. Being like I walked to the car, that's 1263 01:02:32,120 --> 01:02:35,960 Speaker 1: thirty seconds. Then I walked around target that's another ten second. 1264 01:02:36,040 --> 01:02:38,480 Speaker 1: You know, you have to actually do consistent walk twenty 1265 01:02:38,480 --> 01:02:41,000 Speaker 1: minutes a day just for heart health, and consistent part 1266 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,520 Speaker 1: your heart should be, depending on your age, anywhere between 1267 01:02:43,520 --> 01:02:45,680 Speaker 1: a hundred and twenty to a hundred and forty beats 1268 01:02:45,720 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 1: per minute. The older you get, of course, you wanted 1269 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:49,919 Speaker 1: to be lower. Depending on how often you work out. 1270 01:02:50,200 --> 01:02:52,680 Speaker 1: But if you speak to my mother in law who 1271 01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,440 Speaker 1: lives with us, Mimi, how often I asked her if 1272 01:02:55,480 --> 01:02:57,680 Speaker 1: she worked out today? It's every day, And you know, 1273 01:02:57,760 --> 01:02:59,400 Speaker 1: I'm not worried about what my mother in law looks 1274 01:02:59,440 --> 01:03:01,200 Speaker 1: like acts my father in law if I asked him, 1275 01:03:01,240 --> 01:03:03,120 Speaker 1: if you walk today? I asked my mom and dad 1276 01:03:03,400 --> 01:03:05,000 Speaker 1: if I don't call them and get on their ass 1277 01:03:05,000 --> 01:03:07,040 Speaker 1: and say when's the last time he worked out? Because 1278 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:10,960 Speaker 1: we as a people have to be better about health issues, 1279 01:03:11,520 --> 01:03:15,000 Speaker 1: we often let ourselves off the hook by talking about 1280 01:03:15,040 --> 01:03:18,320 Speaker 1: body shaming and fat shaming, and that's not fair to 1281 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:21,000 Speaker 1: people who want you to be healthy. It's one thing 1282 01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 1: to be on on someone about how they look if 1283 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:26,360 Speaker 1: they're already healthy. But if you know someone is not healthy, 1284 01:03:26,400 --> 01:03:28,240 Speaker 1: not eating healthy, not going to the gym, and you 1285 01:03:28,280 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 1: try to point them in a healthy direction, they say, 1286 01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 1: you're fat shaming me. They're just being lazy. There's a 1287 01:03:32,840 --> 01:03:35,240 Speaker 1: there's a very stark difference, and I think that's a 1288 01:03:35,240 --> 01:03:36,840 Speaker 1: good place for her to start. She wasn't awhere to 1289 01:03:36,840 --> 01:03:38,920 Speaker 1: start with the conversation with him. If you guys are 1290 01:03:38,920 --> 01:03:43,320 Speaker 1: having conversations about life, about marriage, about longevity, about being together. 1291 01:03:43,400 --> 01:03:46,520 Speaker 1: If this is your person, then you want to invest 1292 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,960 Speaker 1: in your person. You want to invest in this relationship, 1293 01:03:49,000 --> 01:03:51,280 Speaker 1: And I think it should start with the conversation of saying, Hey, 1294 01:03:51,520 --> 01:03:53,720 Speaker 1: if we're going to be doing this life together, I 1295 01:03:53,760 --> 01:03:56,680 Speaker 1: would love for us to do the best that we 1296 01:03:56,720 --> 01:03:59,400 Speaker 1: can to make sure that we are sustaining ourselves, doing 1297 01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:02,080 Speaker 1: our part to make sure that we're staying healthy. If 1298 01:04:02,120 --> 01:04:04,440 Speaker 1: it means that we're cooking together, if it means that 1299 01:04:04,480 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 1: we're meal prepping together, That's where Deval and I are now. 1300 01:04:07,880 --> 01:04:10,040 Speaker 1: I'm meal prepping for the two of us because I'm like, Okay, 1301 01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:11,760 Speaker 1: I understand what we want our diet to look like. 1302 01:04:11,840 --> 01:04:13,800 Speaker 1: I understand some of the things that we may want 1303 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,640 Speaker 1: to lower or or raise based off of our last 1304 01:04:16,680 --> 01:04:18,840 Speaker 1: panel of blood work we did. Like, there's so many 1305 01:04:18,840 --> 01:04:21,680 Speaker 1: things that go into making sure that you guys can 1306 01:04:21,720 --> 01:04:24,880 Speaker 1: sustain this lifestyle together. So that should be the conversation starter. 1307 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:28,120 Speaker 1: You want him to be as healthy as possible for you. 1308 01:04:28,480 --> 01:04:30,440 Speaker 1: For the three year old, m your three year old, 1309 01:04:30,480 --> 01:04:32,200 Speaker 1: I think she said they have a three year old together. Yeah, 1310 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:33,720 Speaker 1: so with the three year old, you want to make 1311 01:04:33,760 --> 01:04:37,680 Speaker 1: sure that that's paramount and and gentlemen, I bring this 1312 01:04:37,760 --> 01:04:40,280 Speaker 1: to you. Just going to the gym does not mean 1313 01:04:40,280 --> 01:04:42,520 Speaker 1: that you're healthy. Okay, we got to do a better 1314 01:04:42,600 --> 01:04:44,040 Speaker 1: job of eating better. If you ask a dean. I've 1315 01:04:44,040 --> 01:04:45,880 Speaker 1: cut a lot of sugar and a lot of salt 1316 01:04:45,920 --> 01:04:48,520 Speaker 1: because I wasn't getting enough sleep and I was getting 1317 01:04:48,560 --> 01:04:50,840 Speaker 1: bad headaches. I took my pressure one time and my 1318 01:04:50,880 --> 01:04:53,400 Speaker 1: pressure was high, and Kadean was like, yo, what is 1319 01:04:53,440 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 1: going on? It's scary to work out every day and 1320 01:04:56,560 --> 01:04:58,760 Speaker 1: to take your pressure and your pressure be hid and 1321 01:04:58,800 --> 01:05:01,200 Speaker 1: to realize that have a little twitch in my eye. 1322 01:05:01,720 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 1: And I noticed that that happens when I don't sleep 1323 01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:07,000 Speaker 1: a lot and when I'm eating too much salt, which 1324 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,360 Speaker 1: means you never know when you're on the brink of 1325 01:05:09,560 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 1: something catastrophic happening if you keep ignoring the signs and thinking, oh, 1326 01:05:13,560 --> 01:05:15,200 Speaker 1: I go to the gym, so I'm fine. No, we 1327 01:05:15,240 --> 01:05:19,280 Speaker 1: have yes, blood pressure, stress eating. We have to be 1328 01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:22,120 Speaker 1: better with that as a people. So so, Mama, I 1329 01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:25,360 Speaker 1: hope we helped you this one thing. She said to um, 1330 01:05:25,400 --> 01:05:27,600 Speaker 1: how do I express these concerns without my partner feeling 1331 01:05:27,640 --> 01:05:30,640 Speaker 1: self conscious or shame? You expressing your concerns in a 1332 01:05:30,680 --> 01:05:34,160 Speaker 1: loving manner. If they feel shamed, that's them problem, and 1333 01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 1: that has nothing to do with your you know, with you, 1334 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:38,840 Speaker 1: you are allowed to, if you choose to live with 1335 01:05:38,880 --> 01:05:41,520 Speaker 1: someone and be of service, express your concerns for yourself 1336 01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:44,600 Speaker 1: and them them saying they feel shamed, that's something they 1337 01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 1: have to deal with because they have to figure out 1338 01:05:46,240 --> 01:05:49,920 Speaker 1: why they feel shamed. With you expressing concerns, you know, 1339 01:05:50,040 --> 01:05:54,000 Speaker 1: unless you're being an asshole or a company, which I'm 1340 01:05:54,040 --> 01:05:56,280 Speaker 1: sure it will come from a place. Based on what 1341 01:05:56,360 --> 01:05:58,160 Speaker 1: you wrote here, I can tell you love this man 1342 01:05:58,400 --> 01:06:00,480 Speaker 1: and you care for him deeply, so I'm pretty sure 1343 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:02,760 Speaker 1: you're not expressing it to him, you know, in a 1344 01:06:02,840 --> 01:06:05,240 Speaker 1: negative way, but even you can be saying it the 1345 01:06:05,320 --> 01:06:08,000 Speaker 1: nicest way. If he's saying that he's feel shamed, he 1346 01:06:08,040 --> 01:06:09,800 Speaker 1: has to deal with that and you should tell him, Hey, 1347 01:06:09,920 --> 01:06:11,720 Speaker 1: if you're feeling shamed about what I'm saying, you may 1348 01:06:11,720 --> 01:06:14,400 Speaker 1: need to speak to someone to figure out why you 1349 01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: feel shame about what I'm saying, or create that space, 1350 01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:18,760 Speaker 1: safe space for him to be able to speak with 1351 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:22,160 Speaker 1: you about it. Alright, good luck. Oh. She also asked 1352 01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:24,439 Speaker 1: one question, I don't know what to do. Um, how 1353 01:06:24,480 --> 01:06:28,240 Speaker 1: long it's too long to wait for change. Kaudana and 1354 01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:30,520 Speaker 1: I have been married for twenty years. We have argued 1355 01:06:30,560 --> 01:06:32,800 Speaker 1: and debated about stuff since the very beginning that we're 1356 01:06:32,840 --> 01:06:35,640 Speaker 1: still working for each other to change on so there's 1357 01:06:35,680 --> 01:06:39,040 Speaker 1: nothing it's no time is too long if you're constantly 1358 01:06:39,040 --> 01:06:42,360 Speaker 1: working on it. Right with me and Jackson created this 1359 01:06:42,440 --> 01:06:46,040 Speaker 1: motto a practice, Uh, Practice is not punishment. It's the 1360 01:06:46,080 --> 01:06:49,120 Speaker 1: pursuit of perfection. We know we're never going to be perfect, 1361 01:06:49,680 --> 01:06:52,160 Speaker 1: but when you're constantly working to be perfect, that means 1362 01:06:52,200 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 1: you can get better every single day. And when you 1363 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,400 Speaker 1: have a partner that you can see working to get 1364 01:06:56,400 --> 01:06:59,560 Speaker 1: better every single day, they may they may never change 1365 01:06:59,600 --> 01:07:01,640 Speaker 1: to be exactly who you want, but the work is 1366 01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:06,360 Speaker 1: what you want to see every time. Question number two 1367 01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:09,200 Speaker 1: or letter number two, Hello, Connein and Devout. As frequent 1368 01:07:09,240 --> 01:07:12,280 Speaker 1: listeners of y'all's podcasts, I love how real and objective 1369 01:07:12,320 --> 01:07:13,960 Speaker 1: the two of you are about a lot of subjects. 1370 01:07:14,000 --> 01:07:16,160 Speaker 1: Thank you. But that being said, I have an interesting 1371 01:07:16,240 --> 01:07:18,600 Speaker 1: question for you too. I'm a thirty two year old 1372 01:07:18,600 --> 01:07:21,520 Speaker 1: guy and newly married. Prior to marriage, I always knew 1373 01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:23,880 Speaker 1: of monogamy in a marriage, but now in my third 1374 01:07:23,960 --> 01:07:26,880 Speaker 1: year I'm trying to grasp and learn a polly lifestyle 1375 01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:29,240 Speaker 1: of which my wife came to me about wanting to 1376 01:07:29,320 --> 01:07:32,080 Speaker 1: experiment with. My question for you, too is what are 1377 01:07:32,080 --> 01:07:36,520 Speaker 1: your thoughts on the lifestyle of polyamory? Also do you 1378 01:07:36,600 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 1: think do you too think it can be a healthy 1379 01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:41,280 Speaker 1: way to grow a marriage and make it more fulfilling? 1380 01:07:41,560 --> 01:07:43,640 Speaker 1: Side note, my wife grew up in a religious family 1381 01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:46,040 Speaker 1: and did not get to fully explore her sexuality. We 1382 01:07:46,040 --> 01:07:48,720 Speaker 1: were just talking about this without the fear of judgment 1383 01:07:49,080 --> 01:07:52,280 Speaker 1: as an experiment with both sex as opposed to one. 1384 01:07:52,720 --> 01:07:56,280 Speaker 1: So she feels polyamory speaks to how she feels. Okay, 1385 01:07:56,440 --> 01:07:59,760 Speaker 1: that's interesting. These are my thoughts on this interesting Interesting. 1386 01:08:00,200 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 1: Number One, asking someone else's idea on polyamory should never 1387 01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:11,640 Speaker 1: be what you start your ideas polyamory, right, So realistically, 1388 01:08:11,760 --> 01:08:15,440 Speaker 1: asking us what we feel about polyamory shouldn't matter. Right? 1389 01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,160 Speaker 1: Do you love this woman? Do you feel like it 1390 01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:20,559 Speaker 1: could work for you? Have you guys had an open 1391 01:08:20,640 --> 01:08:23,680 Speaker 1: and honest discussion about what it looks like? On what what? 1392 01:08:24,120 --> 01:08:27,800 Speaker 1: Because polyamory doesn't have one idea either, just like monogamy 1393 01:08:28,280 --> 01:08:31,439 Speaker 1: doesn't write what does her idea of polyamory looks like, 1394 01:08:31,520 --> 01:08:33,960 Speaker 1: what does yours look like? If you're willing to try it, 1395 01:08:34,200 --> 01:08:36,719 Speaker 1: are you willing to try it together and to continue 1396 01:08:36,760 --> 01:08:39,200 Speaker 1: to grow with each other. If you guys can find 1397 01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:42,439 Speaker 1: some sort of synergy and work on it together, then 1398 01:08:42,479 --> 01:08:46,120 Speaker 1: it's for you. If you can't, then it's not for you. 1399 01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:49,080 Speaker 1: One thing I will tell you is stop asking other 1400 01:08:49,160 --> 01:08:53,120 Speaker 1: people advice for what you have to find out within 1401 01:08:53,160 --> 01:08:56,280 Speaker 1: your marriage. Now. I appreciate you asking us because you 1402 01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,880 Speaker 1: respect our opinion. But I can't tell you my thoughts 1403 01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:02,080 Speaker 1: of polyamory because I never experienced polyamory and I'd be 1404 01:09:02,120 --> 01:09:05,040 Speaker 1: doing a disservice to the people who live that lifestyle 1405 01:09:05,080 --> 01:09:13,960 Speaker 1: trying to um man splain or uh or you know 1406 01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:18,880 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, or monogamistically explain what polyamory is. All 1407 01:09:18,920 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 1: I know is that if you guys can find a 1408 01:09:20,360 --> 01:09:22,639 Speaker 1: healthy way to communicate and be honest with each other 1409 01:09:22,720 --> 01:09:25,360 Speaker 1: through this process and find something that works for you, 1410 01:09:25,400 --> 01:09:28,599 Speaker 1: to knock yourselves out. He said, they're newly married, so 1411 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,280 Speaker 1: now they're in their third year, and this is what 1412 01:09:31,360 --> 01:09:33,120 Speaker 1: his wife is looking for. I think it's a great 1413 01:09:33,160 --> 01:09:36,640 Speaker 1: thing that his wife is comfortable enough to speak with 1414 01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:38,920 Speaker 1: him about it and then he entertained it, or at 1415 01:09:38,960 --> 01:09:40,880 Speaker 1: least say, you know what, I may not know much 1416 01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:43,160 Speaker 1: about this lifestyle, but I'm willing to find out more 1417 01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,000 Speaker 1: about it or ask about it to see how we 1418 01:09:46,040 --> 01:09:49,280 Speaker 1: can possibly bait this work. And with his wife not 1419 01:09:49,360 --> 01:09:52,840 Speaker 1: growing up having fully explored her sexuality, it looks like 1420 01:09:52,880 --> 01:09:55,120 Speaker 1: she wants him to be a part of that while 1421 01:09:55,200 --> 01:09:57,800 Speaker 1: she explores women. You know, I guess they just have 1422 01:09:57,840 --> 01:10:00,840 Speaker 1: to make sure that the ground rules are put out there. 1423 01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:02,960 Speaker 1: And one thing that does get a little heary. Sometimes 1424 01:10:03,000 --> 01:10:05,880 Speaker 1: it's like, okay, sometimes we can make these ground rules right, 1425 01:10:06,120 --> 01:10:08,120 Speaker 1: and they can be kind of general or they can 1426 01:10:08,160 --> 01:10:11,400 Speaker 1: just be specific. But what if a scenario arises where 1427 01:10:11,439 --> 01:10:14,800 Speaker 1: we didn't really express what the ground rules were for this, 1428 01:10:15,120 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 1: and it could potentially cause issues or retention later on. 1429 01:10:18,600 --> 01:10:20,720 Speaker 1: So you have to be flexible and willing to kind 1430 01:10:20,720 --> 01:10:23,240 Speaker 1: of roll with the punches as you guys explore this together, 1431 01:10:23,280 --> 01:10:25,640 Speaker 1: because you may embark on something where you're like, I 1432 01:10:25,680 --> 01:10:28,479 Speaker 1: thought I would be okay with this, but I'm not 1433 01:10:28,520 --> 01:10:31,719 Speaker 1: necessarily okay with that, Or I don't know. My wife 1434 01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:34,920 Speaker 1: seems to really be enjoying this lifestyle with the women, 1435 01:10:35,160 --> 01:10:37,240 Speaker 1: are am I then fearful now that she's no longer 1436 01:10:37,280 --> 01:10:38,639 Speaker 1: going to want to be with me, and she may 1437 01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 1: fully want to be with a woman. Like there's so 1438 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:43,519 Speaker 1: many different ways that things can unfold. We just can't 1439 01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 1: really speak going to too much because we don't know. 1440 01:10:46,080 --> 01:10:48,360 Speaker 1: I just I just think that like any marriage, it's 1441 01:10:48,400 --> 01:10:51,519 Speaker 1: an ongoing conversation. There's never going to be a point 1442 01:10:51,520 --> 01:10:54,160 Speaker 1: in your marriage, whether you're monogamous or polyamorous, where you 1443 01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:56,840 Speaker 1: say we figured everything else, we no longer have conversations. 1444 01:10:57,040 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 1: That's this is always going to be a conversation. Also 1445 01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:03,360 Speaker 1: want to say that if at any point you feel 1446 01:11:03,400 --> 01:11:07,360 Speaker 1: like this relationship is not advantageous to all parties involved, 1447 01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:11,280 Speaker 1: you can walk away. You know, Like this, this idea 1448 01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:15,080 Speaker 1: that marriage is supposed to be to the very end, 1449 01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:19,080 Speaker 1: regardless of whether it's to at a detriment to either 1450 01:11:19,200 --> 01:11:22,560 Speaker 1: party or both parties, is just not real, you know 1451 01:11:22,560 --> 01:11:23,840 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. And I know a lot of people 1452 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:25,680 Speaker 1: quote the Bible and use the Bible as a way, 1453 01:11:25,720 --> 01:11:29,120 Speaker 1: but we're seeing pastors now get divorced. You under stand 1454 01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:31,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like the Bible was written thousands of 1455 01:11:31,160 --> 01:11:34,240 Speaker 1: years ago, the world has changed. Everything is not going 1456 01:11:34,280 --> 01:11:36,639 Speaker 1: to be the same way. Now, if you're a super 1457 01:11:36,640 --> 01:11:39,880 Speaker 1: religious person and you believe marriages for ever, then you 1458 01:11:39,920 --> 01:11:42,080 Speaker 1: need to have that conversation with the person that you're 1459 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:45,599 Speaker 1: with and find someone who lives that lifestyle with you, 1460 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:49,520 Speaker 1: because that can also be the right lifestyle for you. Ultimately, 1461 01:11:49,840 --> 01:11:53,040 Speaker 1: there is no right lifestyle for everyone on the planet. 1462 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:59,160 Speaker 1: You have to figure out what works for you. She 1463 01:11:59,240 --> 01:12:02,360 Speaker 1: she may know, like she may try it because she 1464 01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:04,680 Speaker 1: says she was religious and felt kind of, you know, 1465 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:06,880 Speaker 1: coddled and bubbled, and she may try to be like, 1466 01:12:06,920 --> 01:12:08,479 Speaker 1: wait a minute, I just I really just want to 1467 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,120 Speaker 1: be with my husband. Like that may be a possibility. 1468 01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:13,360 Speaker 1: You never know. So as long as y'all are having 1469 01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:16,880 Speaker 1: the conversations and you don't feel like you're hurting and 1470 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:20,240 Speaker 1: she's not hurting or you're not hurting someone else, then 1471 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:22,800 Speaker 1: do what you guys do man, continue to talk about it, 1472 01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:26,080 Speaker 1: and God bless all parties involved. Just need to agree. Yes. 1473 01:12:26,720 --> 01:12:28,120 Speaker 1: All right, y'all.

For example, because 1487 01:13:10,520 --> 01:13:12,880 Speaker 1: of social media, you get to see people live out 1488 01:13:12,920 --> 01:13:15,880 Speaker 1: their lives in real time.

I say, let people explore and see 1498 01:13:39,080 --> 01:13:41,519 Speaker 1: if they want to be of service to other people 1499 01:13:41,640 --> 01:13:44,800 Speaker 1: during this time and then let them reconvenience that, you 1500 01:13:44,840 --> 01:13:47,040 Speaker 1: know what, I've made a decision about it. Let's stop 1501 01:13:47,040 --> 01:13:51,120 Speaker 1: shaming people and acting acting as if we all haven't experienced, 1502 01:13:51,200 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 1: especially our parents generation, having experienced out all versions of 1503 01:13:54,840 --> 01:13:59,120 Speaker 1: hot girls, summers and hougie dadis in the past.

Just ask yourself when 1522 01:14:48,160 --> 01:14:50,880 Speaker 1: you were in your young twenties and you were chasing 1523 01:14:50,880 --> 01:14:53,519 Speaker 1: all of these ballplayers and entertainers and getting flown here 1524 01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:55,680 Speaker 1: and flown there. Now it's his turn to do that. 1525 01:14:56,760 --> 01:14:58,639 Speaker 1: So if he don't seem like he's ready to settle 1526 01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:00,559 Speaker 1: down with you right now with thirty to a thirty 1527 01:15:00,560 --> 01:15:03,719 Speaker 1: three because he just finally got his penthouse apartment, don't 1528 01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:06,320 Speaker 1: judge him because he ain't ready to be a daddy. 1529 01:15:06,360 --> 01:15:09,040 Speaker 1: He trying to be a hoochie guy.
