Chrissy A.:Okay, and the cards are so cute. Look at this, they're so cute. They're so cute, the cards are super cute. Okay. So improv storytelling Take turns telling the story, with one person starting and the other adding to it, keep building until it becomes a shared masterpiece. So I'll start this time. Okay, you start the handshake. Let's, I'm gonna start the improv storytelling. I want to do it. Um, I didn't put it in there, but a sentence at a time. However you want to do it is fine, but a sentence at a time will make it More, you know, fun. Okay. So Once upon a time, there was a beautiful young Lady named Lucy.
Sir Anthony:And Lucy Was desperate to find Love.
Chrissy A.:Damn, why did Lucy gotta be desperate, okay. So she searched high and low from grocery stores to the liquor store. The liquor stores.
Sir Anthony:And all she found was Dusty's until.
Chrissy A.:she found was Dusty's until her fairy god pimp sprinkled some pimp juice on her and she met the most wonderful man she's ever seen before.
Sir Anthony:But he had a big zip on his forehead the size of the Eiffel Tower.
Chrissy A.:And she could not get past that eyesore, so she made him a doctor's appointment to see if anything could be fixed.
Sir Anthony:And when he got the doctor's appointment they bust a vessel and he bled so much that he cried. And when he cried she got to see his vulnerable side and she was so happy that she looked past the zit. And they lived happily ever after.
Chrissy A.:What the hell baby.
Sir Anthony:Gotta throw some curveballs in there. This is life. Life ain't so. You know, life is like roller coasters.
Chrissy A.:That was the most beautiful love story I've ever heard in my life, I bet you, if we film it, it's like pretty good movie, right? Okay, you want to pull see how fun these cards are like and you can create anything that you want out of it, so it's pretty dope yeah, so the card I just pulled is called relationship rules.
Chrissy A.:Create five relationship rules that reflect how you want to support and care for each other okay, um, so a rule that I think this would probably be good if we wrote these down too and stuck with them, because this is where the building intentional relationships come in. With these cards, like they're light, they're fun, fun, but you're also building intimacy and stronger relationship connections, and if you want to create more than five rules, that's completely fine.
Chrissy A.:I just thought five was a good number yeah, you first rule number one never do anything that you wouldn't do if I was standing there. If you're thinking about doing something that you wouldn't do if I was right there, then don't do it.
Sir Anthony:Okay, rule number two listen. Listen not just to respond, but sometimes listening doesn't require a response. Okay, you write, all right you write. Your writing is impeccable we had penmanship class in grade school.
Chrissy A.:Oh.
Sir Anthony:Number three. Number three is never go to bed mad. Number four a weekly check-in on the relationship.
Chrissy A.:Okay, I like that Okay.
Sir Anthony:What's the final one? The final one would be put each other first well, we gonna probably put this, scan this and put it on the screen later yeah, so we can show it to y'all. Yeah, our relationship rules send us y'all relationship rules. Go to pureintentions314.com. There's a contact button. Go ahead, send that to us and let us know.
Chrissy A.:We want to see it and share it yeah, it might be essential for us to even share it on the next podcast and talk more about it.
Sir Anthony:So, yeah, send us that all right, y'all back to the cars. Whose turn is it, yours or mine?
Chrissy A.:Okay, share your favorite memory of your partner and why it's special to you. Go ahead, oh, my memory. That's really special. I have so many, I have so many, I have so many. But I'm going to take it back to the day that we started talking, like the very first time we started talking. I talk about it a couple of podcasts, you know from this one. However, it was just such a memorable day for me. Um, the way that I felt like it wasn't like I expected us to be in a long-term committed relationship. I was open to it, but it was like just enjoying a moment, like that was the one time that I lived in the present moment and did everything that I felt and wanted to do, and you were very receptive of it. And we had some hiccup moments later on that night and it was so fun, I don't know. I enjoyed seeing you in a certain level of vulnerability. You know what I'm talking about yeah.
Chrissy A.:Yeah, so I enjoyed seeing you in a vulnerable state and making like fun of it. You know like I saw so many stages of you that day and I feel like I showed you so many stages of me and we were drunk, but that's not the point. But that was one of the best moments, that most memorable moments, the best moments that I've shared with you for me.
Sir Anthony:I'm gonna go back to how you treated me for sweetest day weekend. Forget sweetest day, it was a whole weekend. It was a complete surprise. I didn't have to plan anything. All I had to do was pack and show up and didn't even have to pay and didn't even have to drive, and so we just went surprised, enjoy, ate well and had a lot of fun and it was more surprises because other family came and joined in the.
Chrissy A.:You know couples fun, so yeah yeah, I got my little gloss on you so I'm popping yeah, you popping baby you look good though, okay, okay reverse drawing one partner describes an object without naming it and the other has to draw it based on the description.
Chrissy A.:Okay, you want to draw or you want to describe? Well, I can draw and this can be any object, you guys, anything you think of, just just describe it and the other person has to draw it. See if they get it right let's see let me think about okay, okay, this object is round, round and it's so round because it has air in it and it has a lot of lines on it.
Chrissy A.:On it it's orange okay it had some words on it, one word specifically. I can't tell you the word, because then you'll know the. It don't have that many lines on it and the lines are through it that look like a Show the people that. That look like a. That looks like a DNA, something DNA-like. The lines are through it.
Sir Anthony:And it's orange.
Chrissy A.:Yes, and it has a word on it that starts with S. It could have other words on it, but this one is famous on a movie that it stars in. This thing stars in the movie.
Sir Anthony:I need more that's everything.
Chrissy A.:Sp okay in the movie. It's not like a star, like with a name, it's just everywhere in the movie Because you can play with it and then the movie has.
Sir Anthony:Is it a basketball? Yes, Spalding.
Chrissy A.:And then the movie has it a basketball. Yeah, spalding let's redo that, because then they're like you, slow no, no, that's the point of the game is fun, man, it's been a basketball, I'm ready.
Sir Anthony:My object is you gonna get this fast? The object has big eyeballs like two big eyeballs like this big. Even though it's happy, it's always frowning With eyebrows frowning. The nose looks like a little wiener hot dog. The little snossages looks like a little wiener hot dog. The little sausages. The hair is, imagine Bart Simpson spiky, but to the back. So Bart Simpson spikes is up, this spikes is to the back and it's blue. I knew once I said blue, is it sonic?
Sir Anthony:okay, period thinking about cam favorite character I see I love that about you.
Chrissy A.:I love that like you, how you love my son. It's such an amazing thing to witness, like even with his y'all my son watch youtube the weirdest shows and the fact that you are able to like pinpoint his shows and be like man. He was watching this show and you telling a whole story about this show and I'm just like, okay, cause me, I will sit there and pretend like I'm watching it with him, but I ain't watching it. You know, I'm just like enjoying him watching it and seeing him like sitting there while you're actually engaging into his favorite things, and I love how you are with him. I love how he loves you Like. It's such a special thing for me.
Sir Anthony:That's easy.
Chrissy A.:Yeah, aww. And then you thought of his favorite character, okay, okay, do we got another one? Oh, was that the last one that we was gonna do?
Sir Anthony:I'll give one more, but otherwise you should go to our store, pureintentions314.com. And one. We always all do this, but do a vision board which you may I'll read it. Create a vision board together. Use online images or old magazines to visually map your shared goals and dreams.
Chrissy A.:So do that as a couple creating a vision board helps you understand what you envision, actually see it for your future, so that you can make the moves to actually do it.
Chrissy A.:It's like you could want something and say, hey, I want to be married, or I want a really big house, but if you don't know what that home looks like, if you don't envision it, or you don't know what that marriage looks like to you, to you as a partnership, because it's something that you do together, this isn't you get a board, I get a board. This vision board in this game is specifically meant for you two to create one big vision board together. So now you're learning what each other wants like. I know I want to build a home from the ground up. I know you want to build a home from the ground up, but what does that home look like? You know what I mean, because my home could be completely different than what you envision. So, to make sure we're on the same page, the same path, and that we're more moving in the right direction, it's really essential to do that.
Sir Anthony:I agree, and if you take a look at the link up here, the manifestation episode, this is just a version of that. So you're actively thinking about what you all want. So you are clipping out and writing those things down. You're thinking about it, then you're saying it, and then, if you see it every now and again, or if it's in your subconscious, you'll manifest and you'll do it.
Chrissy A.:Yep, I encourage each one of our listeners, our watchers, our followers to head over to our website. Our website is really dope. We have a lot of information there.

So we have stuff on how to identify red flags, how to manifest the relationship, how, uh, the traits of a high value man. We even have a high-value man test so you can test to see if yourself, as a fella or lady, if your man, is a high-value man. To test yourself.
