Episode 5 of You + Me = US, hosts Sharon and Evan Curry dive into the importance of keeping the spark alive in a long-term relationship. The conversation begins with a simple but powerful question: Do you still flirt with your partner? Sharon and Evan talk about how flirting shouldn’t stop once you’re married and how small gestures, playful comments, and intentional attention can help keep the connection strong.
The discussion then shifts to compliments and appreciation in relationships. Who actually enjoys hearing compliments more—men or women? The couple shares their perspectives and experiences on how affirmation can impact confidence, emotional connection, and overall happiness in a marriage.
Later in the episode, Evan brings up another real-life relationship challenge: Are you able to agree to disagree with your partner? Sharon and Evan explore how couples handle differences of opinion, why every disagreement doesn’t have to end in a winner or loser, and how respect plays a big role in maintaining a healthy relationship.
To close out the episode, Sharon and Evan turn the conversation over to their listeners by asking them to choose the first question for the next episode, inviting the audience to become part of the discussion.
Episode 5 is another honest and relatable conversation from a couple with 15+ years of marriage experience, sharing real perspectives on love, communication, and keeping relationships strong.

SPEAKER_03

The trailer should have given you those options. All right. Come on now. All right. But I did want to do something a little different. You know, everybody has like uh favorite songs, and then this nostalgia that goes with the songs. And I'm not saying this is my favorite song, but it's a very popular song, and for some reason, every time it's like a uh couple's event or kind of like a romantic event, like a Valentine's Day dinner or a wedding reception, or just like a couple's night out at the bar.

SPEAKER_01

I'm just waiting for you to get to the song because you not the anticipation is like grown because you that's the point. You're giving me audience.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not about to say, I want to play a song. Here goes a song. Yeah, I'm not about to do that. You gotta build it. Oh, okay. If you build it, they will come. All right. But anyway, they played this at the concert too, before the concert started. And it always turns the place up and everybody jams to this song.

SPEAKER_01

Kevin, Tevin Campbell.

SPEAKER_03

Nope. People listen to it. If you know it, sing along. It's a classic song. Yeah. You gotta let it play for a while. This is great music.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I don't own the rights to this music. I'll beat you to it. Is there a particular song that you like to hear? No.

SPEAKER_01

That you know, but you know, I mean, there's plenty of songs I would like to hear. But it's just so funny when you talk about nostalgic songs or just just nostalgic anything. Like it really can take you back to exactly I don't want to say exactly what you were doing, but you just have a memory. No, it does. Like what you were doing, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And where you were at and how old you were, yeah, what your parents was doing when I was out. And some people can remember your parents cleaning the house to that.

SPEAKER_01

Saturday mornings, Sundays too. But also just like, I remember back in the day, like we'd be outside, and my mom used to have those big speakers, and she put it against the wind, like the screen door, yeah, and had the windows open, and we'd be outside jamming out.

SPEAKER_03

Jamming out.

SPEAKER_01

Jamming out. And back then I couldn't stand um that type of music. I didn't know why I was like, oh my god, it's old people music.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_01

Right. What a fucking. Right, don't disturb this groove. A jam. You already know about it. Jam, yes.

SPEAKER_03

SPEAKER_01

Um, okay, phone ringing. Put it on silent, please.

SPEAKER_03

It is on silent. That was just my watch. Yeah. Technology.

SPEAKER_01

Um, but also too, like, just going back, like I said, just nostalgic things. There's certain things that like I could smell. And it reminds me of like my childhood. Like, I used I could not stand the potpourri in the bathroom. Like, my grandma was really big on keeping potpourri like in the bathroom.

SPEAKER_03

The bag or just like the stuff? Both. The bag always used to creep me out. You already know how I am. You know what I'm about to say. Smells do something to me, y'all. Like the smells that I don't like, usually it'll hurt somebody's stomach, or they'll be like, ugh, I don't want to smell that. Kind of makes your boy go to the bathroom. You know, the BGs, if you want to say it.

SPEAKER_01

I didn't know you were about to say that.

SPEAKER_03

I'm just we're being honest, ain't we? Oh boy. Yeah, so if whenever I smell something that, like how you explaining the potpourri made you feel, yeah, it uh, you know, makes your boy go to the bathroom. What store was that? Earthfare?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, Earthfair and Solon.

SPEAKER_03

Earthfair and Solon. They used to have all types of like vitamins and earthly medicines. And it was like two particular aisles that I used to hate walking down, and I tried to avoid at all costs because hey, you just gotta boo-boo. You do. Can I believe you just said that? Hey, everybody on here watching and listening, boo-boo. I'm not ashamed of my boo-boo. Okay, grown man.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_01

Welcome in. Welcome in. For those that are just tuning in, we actually talking about um uh nostalgic songs.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Um, I was just just talking about the potpourri. I think I don't know if that's something that was just did all do all cultures did they did everyone do that, or was it just that's a good question?

SPEAKER_03

I don't know. Um that's a great question.

SPEAKER_01

But yeah, I should my grandma used to keep it in the bowl too, like in the living room, and just that smell throughout the house. She'd be like, my goodness.

SPEAKER_03

On the living room on the coffee table? Yes, on yes, because y'all are some heavy coffee drinkers.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Well, that Watson family.

SPEAKER_01

No, it wasn't the Watsons. It was the Watsons definitely have the coffee drinkers. That's what I'm talking about.

SPEAKER_03

Whoa, people, she forgot her maiden name.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

I do have one more song to play. This is like one of your favorite songs, too. And this is definitely a song when you was younger, people in our era, 44, 45, you know, and to 35, you'll be at them parties, dance with the girl, try and grab their butts. Okay. That's right.

SPEAKER_01

SPEAKER_03

I know Gravy grabbed some butts to the song.

SPEAKER_01

All I'm looking for is the jams.

SPEAKER_03

This is more than a jam. This is a feeling.

SPEAKER_01

Oh my life. Even an album cover. Teddy Riley. Oh, he's just a jam. Okay. Okay.

unknown

Don't be afraid.

SPEAKER_03

Just setting the mood for the conversation. Hope y'all got y'all a glass of wine or whatever y'all do. Or in Gravy's case, some Mary Jawan. Hey. Look what this boy is talking about as the good song plays.

SPEAKER_01

What about the smell of the Mary Jawan? Why using the bathroom? Yes. I used to um say to my dad, our house used to smell like skunks. And as I got older, I was like, that wasn't skunks. What was that Mary Jane?

SPEAKER_03

It was skunks. Some was skunky. That's what it was. Real skunky. Now, this is the last one I'm gonna play here.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, now you you doing them out here.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I am. Because uh this used to be the dancing song. A lot of dance contests broke out to this song. Never know.

SPEAKER_01

After this, you're done with the song.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, we'll figure it out. Yeah. But this one right here, it's a classic, y'all. It's not working. Technical difficulties.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, there we go. That's that means you don't need to play it.

SPEAKER_03

Wow. You're hating on your boy. Yeah. But it's all right. We won't play it. Uh-oh. This guy, Gravy says, direct dance, eighth grade. He was grabbing butts. That's what he's in. Right.

SPEAKER_01

That's when it that's when it starts. That's when it starts.

SPEAKER_03

It started a little earlier than that, but that's just the time. That's the nostalgia. You said you remember where you was at.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, it wasn't about butt grabbing.

SPEAKER_03

It was in our case. The guys were the butt grabbers. Yes.

SPEAKER_01

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Yes. So we want to go ahead and start this thing, y'all. So we got a couple people in here. We're going to go ahead and play this clip to set the tone and to set the mood and to get the conversation going for the panel. So enjoy this video. Let us know what y'all think.

SPEAKER_00

Never stop flirting with your woman. Never stop dating your woman. Never stop letting her know how gorgeous she is. Don't just assume she knows. Make sure. There's a lot of women walking around right now that are unsure about whether or not they man still think that they're sexy. Or unsure about whether or not they man still enjoys being around them. Like, and that's what we as men gotta come in at. Like, women operate on a reassurance basis. And we be thinking just because we pay these bills and we're taking care of her. You should know I love you. No, no, no. You gotta reminder. You gotta spell it out for her. You gotta let her know that you appreciate how she shows up for you. Let her know that you appreciate the mother that she is to y'all kids. Let her know that you appreciate how silly she is, how clingy she is, how annoying she can be sometimes. You gotta let her know that you appreciate those things. Like she shouldn't have to guess. Make sure she knows.

SPEAKER_03

So uh this this question was brought to us by Miss Curry here herself. That video was brought to us by her, and she also wants to know out there, ladies and gentlemen, do you still date your partner? Do you still your spouse? I'm sorry, your spouse.

SPEAKER_01

Do you still date your spouse? Do you feel it's no, do you feel it's important to flirt with your spouse? Not date, but flirt with your spouse. Um, and I guess I can start with with what I think um about that. And I think that is very important within a marriage or a serious relationship to still flirt with your significant other. Um even with the dating, we'll say the dating as well, because we do we, if anybody knows the curries, if you're close to us, you know every Friday or Saturday, or sometimes both, or sometimes a whole weekend, we date one another. My husband takes me on dates still, we'll go to eat, we'll go out. Um, we actually started something, it's probably about two years ago. Um, Thursdays is our I I love red wine. And we made Thursdays our red wine Thursdays. Um that starts our date week. So I want to know from the people in the chat, do you think that it's important to either like like Evan said, date your still date your spouse, also incorporating some flirting, it's some flirting in there. And like he said on that clip, just you know, men going to work and and being providers and women as well. Um it's important to still tell that person, you know, I love you, um, I find you attractive, or join them. Uh Evan D and this might be to TMI of my daughters watching, but there are times that, and we and I think all women do this, like I'll be cooking or just doing something around the house and I'll get a smack on the tush. And you know, the first thing we say, ladies, is stop. When that's really not what we mean. On the instant, we like, yes, yes.

SPEAKER_03

You know what pisses me off when you said tush.

SPEAKER_01

Well, then what booty? But neither one cheap.

SPEAKER_03

Just no tush.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, no tush.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um, so I just want to know in the chat, ladies and gentlemen, do you feel that it's still important to um, you know, flirt with your significant other, date your significant other? Uh, what is your take on it? I didn't even ask you.

SPEAKER_03

I 100% 100% think so, because it's important, especially if you have a person like you who's very uh what I'm I just saw one of the the um comments already from my uncle. Oh first we got a comment from Elkie Alonzo. She said absolutely. Yes, yeah, followed by Uncle Jimmy, who says this. Wait to keep it real, Uncle Jimmy. Hey, there is nothing wrong with that. I did not expect that, but that would be a good one. That's what you do, brother. That's what you do.

SPEAKER_01

That is absolutely great.

SPEAKER_03

And guess what? She better be watching because you you gave her a shot. Oh, that was great. She's gonna be trying to elevate past your side chick now. That was you gave her a public shout out.

unknown

That was great.

SPEAKER_01

Um to what you were saying.

SPEAKER_03

But yeah, especially if you have a person that you're married to or dating like you, whose love language is touch, feel, show of affirmation, show the love, make me feel the love, make me feel wanted. And if I don't not saying I don't, if I slip up on it, I can tell the energy change and I can see your mood change. And I guess in your mind, just trying to think for you, just knowing you, you thinking does he still like me? Does he still think I'm attractive? Is he still attractive to me? So in order to stop those feelings, yeah, I gotta do that. But I mean, I'm not saying that's the only reason I do that, but if you have to do that to keep you feeling good, then that's my job. So yes, I do think it's important, and I do think like I said, especially if you have a person whose love language is touchy-filly, affection, and all that stuff.

SPEAKER_01

So here's my thing with that. Do you think that's something that most women are hardwired that way? And it is hard for a man to kind of understand that unless that man is that same way. So I guess what I'm saying is, do you think that there are men that are like that as well?

SPEAKER_03

I mean how we are. I'm pretty sure there are men that's like that, but you don't think you guys are naturally hardwired? Yeah, no, we're not wired for that. No, not at all, because we don't have estrogen.

SPEAKER_01

That has nothing to do with estrogen.

SPEAKER_03

It all it has the women have estrogen. So I'm saying we're not women.

SPEAKER_01

That's it goes back to a love language. Like I say, uh uh we talked about this on the I think the very first episode, we talked about love languages.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

So you don't think that a man can have that love language of um So here and this is I'm gonna use this example, and I this is gonna say what I'm saying. You always say, like, even if I never told you you were handsome again, you'd be okay with that.

SPEAKER_03

Yes.

SPEAKER_01

I think you would. Why would you be okay with that?

SPEAKER_03

Because you told me before.

SPEAKER_01

But what if I never told you?

SPEAKER_03

If you never told me I d I don't think I would even think about it. I'm just being honest. I think I don't think that I would say, Man, does my wife think I'm handsome?

SPEAKER_01

I think Well, you married me and we're still together, so I don't But you just said you just you just said exactly what he said that um in the clip he said that uh just because you're married to somebody when he was talking about the female, she still wants to hear those things. And I know for a fact Yeah, you said she. Right, but I'm I'm going back to you. I know for a fact um that certain things I say to you make you feel good. You've said that to me.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, right.

SPEAKER_01

So it's not just an estrogen thing or a woman thing.

SPEAKER_03

So I'm just saying that I I don't think people, well not people, I don't think a lot of men have those thoughts like majority of women. I don't want to say all because all women are not like that too, but I don't think the majority of men think or like process things like that, saying I have to hear her say that about me or two.

SPEAKER_01

Not have to, but you like it makes you feel good.

SPEAKER_03

Like you want to know if the once again, if you say it, yeah, it's gonna make us feel good, but if you don't say it, I don't think majority of men will wonder if that's the case if you don't say it.

SPEAKER_01

That's interesting. I would like to hear from some men in the chat to to know uh your thoughts on that because I just feel like as a human being, we all want to be told good things about ourselves, right? Especially by someone who loves you, who's in love with you. Um I don't know, I would think that would be important. We had a couple comments and I want to just hear from what is it? What did Byron say?

SPEAKER_03

What up, BZ? It's good for men to hear it too. Smelling good, looking good. Give up the compliments.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I no that I I actually agree with Byron. And Byron, you might want to record screen record this because I'll never probably say I agree with you again. Ever. Ever. And you know that. But I agree with I agree with him. Um men need to hear it too. Like I I just don't understand. You have you have to make me understand why you think that it's just a woman thing.

SPEAKER_03

First of all, you're not gonna understand it, but I'm just speaking from my point of view. And I'm pretty sure other men feel like that too.

SPEAKER_01

But it's not uh Byron said you don't because you're not human, you're Captain America.

SPEAKER_03

But I'm I I just don't think men have men clearly have feelings, but I don't think it's a make or break type of thing for men like it is for women.

SPEAKER_01

But I think men can be just as sensitive as as women can be.

SPEAKER_03

Sensitive, yes. Right. But I'm just talking about you you asked if they didn't say that or compliment you, would you feel like that's not true or would it bother you? I don't think that would bother a lot of men because once again, we're together and we know we're together, and we know that you're still with us. So I don't think that crosses our mind as much as it would you guys if we don't say it to you guys, just because that's how y'all are naturally wired. Y'all ask other women, girl, how do I look today? No, we do, girl, how's my hair? Girl, ooh, girl, your hair is laid out. When have you heard a uh gathering of men say, I don't know, hey dog, I like your outfit.

SPEAKER_01

But it's okay to give compliments.

SPEAKER_03

That is, you know, I know it's okay, but uh that's what I'm saying. How many times have you heard that in a gathering of men?

SPEAKER_01

I've not dudes nights if you're dark-skinned, uh cousin Gravy says, or David, I'm sorry, says, uh boy Gravy. Dark skinned men know where to the stuff ain't no need to repeat it all the time.

SPEAKER_03

You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_01

You know, I ain't gonna lie, I love me some chocolate. I love me some chocolate, so you know, maybe that's what it is. Maybe that's what it is.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, we got a new watcher and new listener, my boy. I ain't seen or heard from you in a minute. Jack, thanks for tuning in, man. My boy KJ, Keenan Johnson. He says action speaks louder than words. I agree. It feels good to be complimented, but won't question the fact of my mate loving me or finding me attractive if she doesn't say it, as long as the relationship is going accordingly and I know we locked in. See, that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_01

So yeah, so and but so we're getting some mixed feedback. So I guess so, majority of men basically what I'm getting from this is don't need to hear it. So does that also mean we don't have to? I don't know how to want to say don't have to show it.

SPEAKER_03

Um, because I don't really know how we would show it, but but you saying you don't have to show it is not in y'all's nature. Y'all's nature is to show it because y'all are loving creatures, and showing the love is what y'all do and what y'all love to do with each other and with other humans that y'all love. So y'all don't have to worry about that part.

SPEAKER_01

But see, I get what once again, Byron. I just this was a great comment. Um compliment your man because the next woman will, and that it that's true, and that's why I think it's important for us women to flirt back with our men. So, like and I I don't want to go too deep, but I flirt with you like a lot, and it and I and you I know that you enjoy it, and I think that's important. So I guess going back to the question I don't know, because we could keep we could keep this going. That's the point. I know, but you know I go deep. That's the point so deep. I'm gonna go so deep. Because I just I don't I really don't understand. Like you got, like I said, Byron, which is it's right.

SPEAKER_03

And I said the majority of men don't. And it's it is some men that do, but that's just not the majority. Like on you guys' side, it's the majority.

SPEAKER_01

See no Byron, keep it going.

SPEAKER_03

Men like it too. Y'all know whoa, y'all know out feels? Okay, y'all know it feels great to hear when that woman says you smell great with cheese. Come on, y'all. It's okay to admit.

SPEAKER_01

No, and I'm not saying that. Thank you, Byron. Thank you. Give him a round of applause for that. Thank you.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, okay.

SPEAKER_01

Thank you. Because it seriously, because like he's proven my point.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. Um once again, you are saying this is the exception, not the rule. It's going to be men that feel like that. That's the part you're not hearing me say. I didn't say all men feel the same way and are manly man and beat your chest. It's that's not a hundred percent. There are men that feel like that. It's just not the majority like it is for women. That's what I'm saying. You're trying to make it into me saying that it's no men out there that feel like that. There are men, clearly, because he's saying this, and it's probably other men that's not here yet or that's not watching yet that feel that way too. It's just not the majority. Just not.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. Okay. But I okay. Well, I know I like to be flirted with.

SPEAKER_03

Because you're a woman. Right. You're the majority.

SPEAKER_01

Not even just that, it's just knowing. I okay, I guess. I'm a woman, yes, we get that part. But just it's that reassurance because also that we've got women of different age groups. Like sometimes I'm not what I was at 20 when we got together.

SPEAKER_03

So there You're not gonna be right.

SPEAKER_01

So you don't understand as a woman, we need to hear those things because we see something totally different in the mirror than maybe what you see.

SPEAKER_03

Absolutely.

SPEAKER_01

So sometimes when you come in and then I could be looking the worst, and you like, you look so good at it. I'd be like, Are you crazy? See, but but well, that's on the outside. On the inside, I'm literally like, oh my god, he said I was just beautiful.

SPEAKER_03

So why not say what's on the inside? Why say that on the outside? I don't know. Cause we're interesting creatures. I don't know. I can't very interesting creatures because if somebody hears that, you like, well, damn, I just gave her a compliment.

SPEAKER_01

No, it's the way we say it, like, oh my god, I look so crazy.

SPEAKER_03

Well, that's not just how you just said that at all.

SPEAKER_01

It's not just usually how I say it, or at least how I try to say it.

SPEAKER_03

I guess. But just like how you told me, you're not gonna understand because you're not understanding because you still think I'm saying all men.

SPEAKER_01

Like they're going back to episode one, we speak two different languages. Yes. And it is it's we need a translator. Exactly, Byron. Typical tough guy response. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

See, what I'm having a problem realizing is what why does it have to be tough?

SPEAKER_01

Byron, whatever you had today for breakfast, I want you to have it every Thursday because I'm actually agreeing with you. This is this is very rare. You know what?

SPEAKER_03

Byron, stick yourself because you shouldn't be saying this. It's nothing about tough guy at all. It's not tough.

SPEAKER_01

It's just Evan has to be uh what I always tell you sometimes, the King Kong effect.

SPEAKER_03

No, I really don't. Um I'm not at all. Okay. So can you say that about Kenan? Because Keenan just said the same thing I didn't.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not in a relationship with Kenan, so I can't read I can't but from the comment. He just said I think it's the delivery. Keenan's delivery was a lot different than yours.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay. The delivery.

SPEAKER_01

It was.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay. I guess I'll change the delivery.

SPEAKER_01

Go on pizza chest.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And I love this comment right here. Who paid you? Because this is what he does. LK, he's a professional troll. He goes around the internet, looks for shows. No, he does not.

SPEAKER_01

And just trolls people starts stuff.

SPEAKER_03

That's what he does.

SPEAKER_01

He's actually the the other co-host on Game for All Seasons podcast.

SPEAKER_03

And that's why I know what he does.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. He's not going around. I can't believe I'm actually defending you, Byron. Like, what it what did I have for breakfast?

SPEAKER_03

Beats me. Let's not eat that again.

SPEAKER_01

I'm really defending you. Maybe it's light skin nation standing up. I don't know. Yes.

SPEAKER_03

Please. I don't know. Uh sit down, light skin nation.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, so we we got that out the way. Um, but I do want I do have a question for some people in the chat. Um actually, I thought you had a question for some people in the chat.

SPEAKER_03

No, not really.

SPEAKER_01

No, I'm just trying to I was about to say, what?

SPEAKER_03

No, I I don't have a question for anybody. It's dead air. No, seriously. So I want to know, just like how we just had that back and forth, women, is it okay if you don't understand when you have conversations like that and you never have a uh let's go uh say a settlement? Is it okay if you agree to disagree, or does that make you even matter that you didn't come to a conclusion after you thought when you have these close conversations like that? Is that a clear question? No. So just like how we just close that conversation and we didn't agree, we wasn't on the same page, so to say, in other situations in a relationship or in a marriage, is that okay to end the conversation like that, just knowing that all right, we did we didn't agree on that?

SPEAKER_01

It depends on the it depends on the topic or the situation we're that's at hand that we're talking about. I mean, if it's something this wasn't like a dis I mean it wasn't like an argument. No. So are you talking about an argument or just the argument? Oh, an argument, no, like an argument. Well, you know what? I don't know, because when we have disagreements or arguments, I just think one of us just walks away and then, or did we just say, you know, I need I need space or you need space.

SPEAKER_03

So with that being said, does that fester and come out in later conversations, even if it's not the same subject?

SPEAKER_01

Yes, for me, yes.

SPEAKER_03

So that's what I'm asking. Why doesn't it just stop there on the disagree? Like on the agree to disagree. It's no disrespect. Like you said, it the conversation is closed. It just didn't come to the same agreement. So why does it have to carry to other things?

SPEAKER_01

Because it depends on what we're arguing about. We can't be arguing about okay, who loaded the dishwasher wrong, and like that's what I'm saying. It depends on the actual argument. If it's a heated, heavy argument, yeah, and it's something where like you said something to hurt my feelings, or vice versa. Yes, that's gonna linger because I feel like in most arguments, people really don't get everything out that they want to say because they're trying to um not I don't I don't know. But I I I don't I don't know. Your question was kind of what?

unknown

I don't know.

SPEAKER_01

It depends on the situation, it depends on what you're talking about.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, so give me a situation. Okay, no, I'll give you a situation. Let's just say with that, what we just got done talking about, the flirting with your partner or spouse. What if you didn't flirt with your partner or spouse and one of them brought it to the table in a conversation and say, why don't you do that with me or for me? And they give you an answer that you wasn't looking for, and you doesn't you don't agree with that answer, and throughout that whole conversation, you guys never get on the same page and the conversation is over. Is that okay to leave being agreeing to disagreeing?

SPEAKER_01

No, that's what I that's going back to what I said. It depends on the on what we're disagreeing. Yes, that situation, you can't just end and be like, okay, that's that.

SPEAKER_03

So are you taking that as if he's not going to try? Because the answer he might give you when you ask, why don't you do that? Like, why don't you flirt with me or why don't you give me compliments? Uh I I don't know. I I I you know I love you and blah, blah, blah. But I want you to give me a compliment. Okay, I'm sorry, I didn't give you a compliment that you haven't, you know what I mean, in the past. And he doesn't say, I'm gonna try in the future, but he just makes that effort to try in the future just because he had that conversation with you. So is it okay if that conversation ends with not being on the same page?

SPEAKER_01

No, not for me. Not for me. I would I would I want to know from the people in the chat, not for me, because uh it's gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna want to go deeper into that. You get what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, but no matter what reason he gives you, you're not gonna agree or like it. That's what I'm saying. But that's what makes it not be on the same page. But what if he gives you an answer like well I'm like I just said, I'm sorry, I d I I didn't mean to do that. He said, but you don't do it. You know how it can get heated at certain times off of a delivery or off of a response, and it just doesn't make you feel the way that you thought the conversation would make you feel, like you thought you were gonna come to a solution in that conversation, and the solution never gets there by the end of the conversation. Is that okay? If after the conversation, the whoever is in the wrong tries hard to write that wrong so those conversations don't happen again.

SPEAKER_01

I like I said, I for I can I can only speak for me, so I I would like to know. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So that's of course. That was just a long drawing I was trying to follow, and then I was yeah, I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

I guess the delivery was wrong again. Chad, I hope you understand what I'm saying. If you and your partner have a conversation and you are not able to agree on the conversation that was brought up, is that okay to end the conversation on separate pages? Because we all know how we can get elevated when we're talking to somebody that we are really in love with or care about or serious about. We know how feelings can get involved and certain things get said, like you said, and you say, you know what? I'm just done with this conversation because I'm not gonna take it there because it can go really, really bad. Let's just stop here so it doesn't go bad.

SPEAKER_01

Elkie says because y'all men are hard-headed. Agreed.

SPEAKER_03

I'm not even putting that in.

SPEAKER_01

And then Byron, too. Some disputes have no resolution. And I think that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_03

So is that okay? Yes. So, and then that's when I asked, will that be transferred to another situation that is going to come up later? Because you're still gonna be feeling some kind of way about that not being resolved.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, I could see where some women, woman, or man could do that. Um, I mean, I I can only speak for me. And like like Byron says, some you just can't resolve. So I I I don't know. I've never really, I can't recall even dealing with that.

SPEAKER_03

We got Britney back. What up, cousin? She said, Yeah, you can end the conversation and agree to disagree. And that's what I'm asking, B. So after you agree to disagree, is that all of your feelings in that like situation? Will it never come back up again?

SPEAKER_01

That's a hard one because you don't you don't know. You and like I said, it depends on what you're talking about.

SPEAKER_03

She said, it's your mic circle back right into the conversation. Girl, you gotta be reading. And I didn't know you were about to say that. You crazy. But that that's that's what I'm asking. Like, why why can't it just stay on the agree to disagree?

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. Byron said that's a woman thing. Maybe it's a woman thing, and then Elkie says no because it wasn't resolved. Like I said, I can't speak for everybody else. I can only speak for me. Like, it depends on what the conversation is.

SPEAKER_03

Like Right. So give me a situation that you know wouldn't be okay to end on agree to disagree. Um I don't care how serious it is, just throw it out there.

SPEAKER_01

I don't, I can't, I can't think, I can't think of one with you and I.

SPEAKER_03

No, just one like uh an example.

SPEAKER_01

That's a horrible. I don't know, babe.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Someone give us an example. I don't know. He's asking me, I feel like I'm taking a freaking pop quiz over here. Like I'm sweating in my seat because I'm like, I don't, I don't know. I just know for me, like it depends on what we're talking about or what we're disagreeing about. If it's something that it like really hurt my feelings or I felt like, um, I don't know, like if it just really hurt my feelings, yes. If we ended a conversation, it was like, okay, well, I'm sorry that you felt like this, but this is how I feel, and we we go walk our separate ways. That is probably gonna come back in the next conversation somehow. Just just, I don't know. It depends on how if I'm still thinking about it and if I still feel hurt by it, I guess.

SPEAKER_03

So then it's not an agree to disagree, it's just uh shut up right now, and then I'm gonna bring it back up whenever I feel offended again.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, yeah, I don't know. You I I'm like sweating over here. I don't know. You taking me on a pop quiz. Um what we got Oki saying here? I can't really.

SPEAKER_03

She's talking to Byron.

SPEAKER_01

Oh. I'm too crazy to be. Byron, I would like if you do not troll our people in our chat, please.

SPEAKER_03

I told you.

SPEAKER_01

We need we need people to say, focus. We're gonna block you. We're gonna block you.

SPEAKER_03

I told you he goes internet to internet, show to show, and trolls.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, we're gonna block you. You're gonna be on the block list.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, Brittany said, not a pop quick.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, girl, I feel like he's giving me a I wasn't prepared. I'm like, where where were these notes? I didn't get these notes for today's show.

SPEAKER_03

What do you mean? That's just a regular question.

SPEAKER_01

I thought that was a long question. That wasn't a long question. That was a question.

SPEAKER_03

I had to reword it because you said you wasn't understanding what I was saying.

SPEAKER_01

I wasn't following that. That was long.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_01

That was like a movie you had planned in your head or something. I don't know. No, it really know where it was going.

SPEAKER_03

This is crazy, guys.

SPEAKER_01

But uh Byron, I agree with that.

SPEAKER_03

Wow.

SPEAKER_01

Anyway, I agree with your first one where he said, My wife will come back all the time mad from a previous conversation. Um that has that has happened. I mean, I think that happens in every single relationship or marriage where we we we circle back. I mean, even men do it. We've circled back on it, but I just feel like it's important just to try to hash it out at the time of whatever's occurring. Yeah, exactly. I feel like that's important. I feel like hearing each other's sides, like maybe taking that time to kind of cool down, taking everything that was said, and then, you know, like I said, we do that all the time. We'll walk away and then kind of come back and say, okay, I had time to sit and think about what I said that made you feel like B. You know what I mean? Um, so I think that's important.

SPEAKER_03

So, should I have worded it in how do you handle arguments and conversations after the argument? Is that better?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I guess. I mean, I get it now. I was about to say how I didn't I get it now. Um, yeah, I get it, I get it now.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, that's a very long response. That's Kizzle. At the end of the day, if a woman brings it to our attention, it means that they feel a way about it, even if we don't understand where they're coming from. At the end, at that time, it's best for you and to let her know that we will pay more attention to the situation and how we react in those situations and we will try to be sympathetic to her feelings and try to do better.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. I I I like that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, I have no problem with that. I like that a lot. But that's what I'm saying. So even if we say that and then y'all come back with another comment, that means it's not over.

SPEAKER_01

Right. I could see where y'all could say that. But yeah, I mean, then maybe she needs another day to cool off. Remember, we talked about that, I think that was in episode two. Yeah, it was needing time to kind of cool off and then come back to it.

SPEAKER_03

That's a Byron. This guy. Yeah. You get you have to be. Yeah. You have to be a better pick your battle guy. You do. That's the thing, fellas. Pick your battles, not wars. Please. And be smart about the battles you choose, and don't be dumb about the wars you choose. Because every war you choose is dumb. Because it's not gonna be in your favor. No matter what you think, no matter how right you think you are, you're gonna lose. It is. You just gotta be open and just be say, oh, okay, I know I'm gonna lose this one. So chalk it up, move past it.

SPEAKER_01

Why do y'all feel that? Do you feel you're not hurt on the other end?

SPEAKER_03

Uh no, I'm not saying that.

SPEAKER_01

Why do y'all feel that?

SPEAKER_03

Well, like I was saying on the other episode, happy wife, happy life, or as they say happy. Spouse happy house.

SPEAKER_01

I agree with that.

SPEAKER_03

I totally don't understand the difference in saying, but it's still saying the same thing. But that's that's the meat and potatoes at the end of the day. You got to keep that happy. Because if you constantly go into war, because wars last a very long time. Battles is here and there. It's a little battle here, a little battle here, a little battle here. But a war will last.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

And that's not good for men. Because y'all hold on to things and it lasts a very long time. Just when you think you thought the war was over, and you like complimented her and you did this and you did that, it's not over. So that's what I'm talking about. Okay. Not over by a long stretch.

SPEAKER_01

The happy wife, happy life mess. What does that say? I need readers. Makes a man back down. Why why, Byron? I would like to know why. I would like to know why. Do you what you why do you feel that? Or you say that that happy wife, happy life makes a man want to back down?

SPEAKER_03

No, I don't think it makes a man want to back down, but that's the period on the sentence. Alright, happy life, happy life. Or happy spouse, happy house. Sorry, I hit the wrong comment, baby. But this is the one I wanted to hear from her. Yeah. There we go. Happy spouse, happy house is a different mindset of equality. It includes the man and partner, not just the wife. Yes. Yeah, but the so does the happy wife, happy life.

SPEAKER_01

Because it's only this in my mind the way I'm seeing it is as long as the wife is happy, that's all that matters. When that is not how that should go.

SPEAKER_03

In that situation, it is because you're not happy. That's why the situation arose. So in that situation that causes that phrase to be said, yeah, that means a lot.

SPEAKER_01

This is where the crickets need to be played because I'm just confused. So you don't think that yeah, seriously, because that's just just what was playing in my head when you said that.

SPEAKER_03

Okay.

SPEAKER_01

Um elaborate, please.

SPEAKER_03

I just did.

SPEAKER_01

I don't know. I think we're off today, y'all. I don't know.

SPEAKER_03

No, I think you're just trying to think too deep instead of listening to what I'm saying. And that like that's the answer, what I'm saying. I'm not trying to speak in riddles. I'm saying there's no other way to look at it.

SPEAKER_01

Oh. Okay. All the time. I'm breaking the husband code. That has to be Byron because I can't see what it's saying.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it's definitely Byron. But I wanted to highlight this one here, he says.

SPEAKER_01

So no such thing as a quality, happy wife. Oh man.

SPEAKER_03

Um that's to pick your battles and pick your wars. That's what that is.

SPEAKER_01

It does not mean man shut up. Like, y'all put that on yourselves. Like, no woman ever said that a man can't had to come up with that statement. No woman, no woman says, like, it better be my way or the hot. That's not how it goes.

SPEAKER_03

That's not what we're saying at all. That's how I know you're not hearing. No, I'm not.

SPEAKER_01

I need a translator. Like I said, y'all really speak two different languages. I literally need a translator.

SPEAKER_03

Because of previous things that have happened, you know, like he said before earlier, he made a comment earlier that we're last word kind of people. That's not a good thing when you're talking or having a disagreement with your wife for a man to try to have the last word because it's not gonna happen the way you think it's gonna happen.

SPEAKER_01

And then Byron said most of y'all don't want pushback.

SPEAKER_03

Not a lot. No, y'all don't. Not a lot.

SPEAKER_01

It's funny how y'all are speaking, like if it's a back and forth conversation, like where do you think?

SPEAKER_03

You just sat here and talked about men too. You just said, it's funny how y'all can speak for us. You've been speaking for us a lot too.

unknown

Whatever.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I hope y'all understand it. Anybody that knows us, this is real, like this is just how we are with one another. That's why I said I didn't want to go too too deep because you know I I will stay on that one topic for a long time and just keep going and keep going.

SPEAKER_03

And that's my point when I asked that question. We you said so many times already in this conversation and in this episode, yeah. Okay, whatever. Let's just move on. And now we're back on it again. It literally just happened. Like right now, it just happened.

SPEAKER_01

It did. As Brittany said, it circled right back.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, it did. It literally just happened, and hence why I said, pick your battles, don't be in a war. Because the war is never good.

SPEAKER_01

Not me proving points and don't even realize that.

SPEAKER_03

And it's not even the fact that I was trying to prove the point. It was it eventually it's going to happen. So just a nicer way, I guess, B, if I could speak for you, a nicer way to say no pushback, women don't want pushback is okay, you're right.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, I can't stand that.

SPEAKER_03

Okay, I agree. Uh-uh. No, you never say I agree.

SPEAKER_01

You'll be like, You're right. When we're not trying to be right, I'm just trying to get you to understand what I'm saying. It doesn't necessarily mean like what I'm saying is right. I just want you to hear me.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. And just because we say that response don't mean we don't hear you. We hear you, we just don't want it to get to the war.

SPEAKER_01

But but that that's that start sparks a war with me. You right. You right. Oh, I can't stand it. I mean, in majority of the time, yes, I do be right.

SPEAKER_03

But see, but I'm wrong for saying it.

SPEAKER_01

Whatever.

SPEAKER_03

Unbelievable. Whatever. So you think we should give out the homework for uh next week?

SPEAKER_01

Yes. I think this was once again, y'all. I absolutely love the the back and forth in the chat. Um, keep it up. I love the fact that y'all really jump on here at 7:30. Um, I get messages all day long, like can't wait for the show, can't wait for the show. Um, feel free to send us um, is it instant messages on here? That's how old I am, is it?
