Compromise

In Episode 10 of You+Me=US, Sharon and Evan dive into one of the most important—and sometimes uncomfortable—parts of any relationship: compromise. They break down what it really means to meet your partner halfway and ask the tough question: Is compromise always healthy, or can it go too far?
The conversation gets personal as they reflect on whether they’re truly comfortable compromising, and what it looks like when one person feels like they’re giving up more than the other. Sharon and Evan also share real-life examples, including the biggest things they’ve each had to compromise on, sparking a relatable discussion for couples everywhere.
Switching gears, they tap into pop culture with excitement around the upcoming Michael movie release, discussing expectations and whether it will live up to the legacy surrounding Michael Jackson.
Then it’s all about concert culture—specifically the buzz around Chris Brown and Usher. From jaw-dropping ticket prices to fan behavior, Sharon and Evan react to how far some women go to meet their favorite celebrities, and whether it crosses the line or just shows dedication.
This episode blends relationship insight with entertainment talk, giving listeners both something to think about and something to laugh at. Whether you’re navigating compromise or debating concert tickets, Episode 10 keeps it real, honest, and engaging.

SPEAKER_06 7:12

Let me feel you with the probably kid because this is when he was gonna love you more this day. So I promise you.

SPEAKER_03 7:27

I'm actually really excited to see this movie. I am too. I can't wait to go shoot for real. This is gonna be my first time in the movie theater since what? What was the last movie we went to see?

SPEAKER_02 7:41

I mean, the movie that you went to go see. I'd seen a bunch of movies since last movie we saw was um Wow.

SPEAKER_03 7:50

It was Sinners. We went to see Sinners, didn't we?

SPEAKER_02 7:52

In the theaters, no, because I would have been scared as heck. No. We didn't know.

SPEAKER_03 7:58

I can't remember what we did.

SPEAKER_02 7:59

It was something Oh, it was bad boys.

SPEAKER_03 8:01

Oh, yeah, bad boys.

SPEAKER_02 8:03

I wasn't seeing sinners in a movie. I barely wanted to watch it at home with my scary butt.

SPEAKER_03 8:06

Oh yeah, she'd be scared.

SPEAKER_02 8:08

I sure do. I believe in Jesus. Yes, I'd be very scared.

SPEAKER_03 8:11

That should be all the more reasonable. Right.

SPEAKER_02 8:13

So I'm not about to put all that stuff in my spirit.

SPEAKER_03 8:16

But anyway, yeah, anywho. Because she can't just say that I love the Jesus and say I'd be scared in the same situation.

SPEAKER_02 8:24

They know what I'm trying to say.

SPEAKER_03 8:26

Yeah, hopefully. Jeez. We're gonna get this thing started, y'all. Y'all know today is a national holiday. It is, whether you know it or not. In the city of Cleveland, it is a national holiday. It is draft day, y'all. It is round one of the draft at eight o'clock, and that's why we came on at seven o'clock. Because whose idea was it?

SPEAKER_02 8:48

It was my idea. Would you like to know why it was my idea? Why that is, Shawley? Because football is his life outside of me. So either we were gonna start at 7:30 and we would have the TV on and he would not be engaged in this.

SPEAKER_03 9:03

I'll be just like this.

SPEAKER_02 9:04

So with him eyes. Good pick, big old eyes. So I said to him, Um, you know, let's let's start it at seven. That way we're done at a decent time where he can enjoy what he wants to enjoy. But I know this is his first love. This is what he wants to really be doing.

SPEAKER_03 9:22

That's why I'm doing it.

SPEAKER_02 9:23

Good answer. It's like Family Feud. Good answer. Good answer.

SPEAKER_03 9:29

Is that on the board, Steve?

SPEAKER_02 9:31

Yes. Thank you. Number one answer. Number one answer.

SPEAKER_03 9:33

That's all I give out.

SPEAKER_02 9:35

You know what I'm saying? Well, that's what I did want to talk about. Um, since that was a compromise. Not even a compromise. Well, yeah, I guess that was a compromise on my part. Yeah. Um also like what what keep going, sister? Come on, show it was a compromise on my part. Um basically put it. I don't want to even say put in my needs after yours because I do enjoy I do enjoy watching the draft with him, even though I probably don't know one person in the draft. Uh or do I?

SPEAKER_03 10:06

Uh probably not this year.

SPEAKER_02 10:07

Oh, anyway, I like to watch it just like he makes it exciting for me. He gives me all their backstories and blah, blah, blah. But that's something I wanted to bring up to you. Do you feel that that's something that most couples should do? Like what I kind of did today, compromise and like show interest in things that you really may not be interested in. You think that's important?

SPEAKER_03 10:30

That's very important, especially on uh the man's side. And I know you about to say, oh, don't be starting that. But nine times out of ten, women are gonna be in something into something totally different than men are. So sometimes we have to put our stuff to the side to make you guys happy, and then at the end of the day, can you give me an example of what that is with me? Like, what is name something like um I can give you one broad subject.

SPEAKER_02 11:01

Not my show, not my shows. No, no, no, no, my shows, okay.

SPEAKER_03 11:04

Spontaneous. I've before you, I was not a spontaneous person whatsoever. I had to be by a book, like, okay, do this, do this, do this. Okay, now do this, do this, do this. And it'll be some days you'll be like, you know what? I want to do this, and we'll go do it. And then like at first, I'd be uncomfortable, like I this wasn't on the plans. This was not in the plans. Then at the end of the day, I'm having fun. So that it was spontaneousness. You made me a spontaneous person to a certain percentage. I'm still not 100% there like you, but really, that was never in my no, you're 100%. I probably to this day, probably like 60. Really?

SPEAKER_02 11:48

You do a very good job of um I don't know. That I not that's something I never thought about.

SPEAKER_03 11:56

Like Yeah, because if that's not if that's not in my repertoire.

SPEAKER_02 12:00

He's a unicorn.

SPEAKER_03 12:02

Yeah. If that's not in my repertoire, I wouldn't be, you know, doing it, but you made it my repertoire, pretty much. Because especially when we first got together, I had no the places she used to take me, y'all, and the stuff we used to do, she used to be so embarrassed. Uh she called me, and B, you already know. Uh she she used to call me urban. Like very urban.

SPEAKER_02 12:25

Because back in the day, our first, and then we'll we'll get back on trade. This is kind of still being on track, but yes, our first one of our first dates was going to the what was chop? No, it wasn't Chop House.

SPEAKER_03 12:35

It was Brio.

SPEAKER_02 12:36

Brio. I'll never forget, which is really not a fancy restaurant. Brio was like, it was not a fancy restaurant, it wasn't to him. To me's so we meet there, and this was in Legacy Village, I do believe. We meet there. I'm already sitting there. He walks in, and oh my goodness, these back, what was it, 2005? The big I call them the Laffy Taffy shorts because they were the shorts the guys wore in the video. Those big baggy.

SPEAKER_03 13:02

Oh no, no, yeah, that was Jabo. That wasn't even Laffy Taffy, that was juvenile them.

SPEAKER_02 13:08

Oh, okay. New Orleans made it famous, y'all. It was absolutely horrible. So he wore that. He had on the Fred Samford um graphic T and as I call it, his TI hat, his tip hat. That's exactly how you were wearing it. And this long, like uh bring him to the side, shot. What do they used to call those things? Dog chains. Yeah. Walks in, and I was just like, I was mortified. I was absolutely mortified.

SPEAKER_03 13:37

So now, mind y'all, we at Brio in Legacy Village, which was not fancy, not fancy, but people don't wear that. So I was the sore thumb in there. You know how people say you stick out like a sore thumb. I was a sore thumb, baby.

SPEAKER_02 13:51

I was yeah, you was an ugly thumb, not ugly like that, but your outfit was very ugly. The outfit was very ugly. Hey, and then I was comfortable. So, so do you remember how you um the napkin?

SPEAKER_03 14:06

You didn't know where to put the napkin. Um, not only the napkin, the water. When they poured the water and you told me to drink it, I grabbed that cup. I seen everybody looking at me, so I stuck my pinky up.

SPEAKER_02 14:20

Oh, I was so embarrassed.

SPEAKER_03 14:22

I was so embarrassed. I stuck my pinky up and drank my water, then looked right back at everybody else. See what I just did? At Brio, guys.

SPEAKER_02 14:30

So that basically that's saying that you've you compromised like from that day forward, you knew that I was gonna have you in situations that were never in before in my whole life.

SPEAKER_03 14:39

Ever.

SPEAKER_02 14:40

Wow.

SPEAKER_03 14:40

Not one time have I got hungry and be like, you know what? I want to go to Brio.

SPEAKER_02 14:45

Brio has some good food, they had good calamari, good bread, good.

SPEAKER_03 14:50

Now, this is a place where they tailor their menu to people that don't eat a lot.

SPEAKER_02 14:57

So their menu because it wasn't a buffet.

SPEAKER_03 15:02

Yeah, that's the point of eating. You have to get full.

SPEAKER_02 15:05

Now let's talk about that then. So we're going on a tangent here because I got stories to tell. No, we're still on the subject. About um, I had to compromise going, I hate buffets. I'm not going to pay $22 and I'm gonna eat a saucer full of food. And then after that, I'm watching you eat and it's just a spectator sport.

SPEAKER_03 15:25

Hey, steppy game up. Steppy game up.

SPEAKER_02 15:29

But I would like to hear from you guys, what are some situations where you've had to um compromise? Or do you feel that that shouldn't be a thing? Like you do you, I do me. If it makes us happy, we keep it like that. Or do you feel that, you know, 50-50, little give, little take? You know, curious to see what you guys have to say.

SPEAKER_03 15:47

Okay, now the phone lines are open.

SPEAKER_02 15:50

Yeah, you jumped the gun. And I didn't know we were gonna do this. And I didn't know we were gonna do this today. So this is news to me as well.

SPEAKER_03 15:57

So yeah, message. Check your mail.

SPEAKER_02 16:02

Whatever.

SPEAKER_03 16:03

Yeah, put it in the chat if you got some kind of uh compromise situation with you and your loved one, you and your friend, you and your significant other, whatever. Any relationship, your mama them, or you know, your mama didn't put you in some strange compromise situations because they when you was little, they say you gotta do this in order to do that.

SPEAKER_02 16:22

That's not no compromise. You compromise is like you're allowed to do what you yeah, as a kid, you're not saying no. Well, if you were tough, you would. Okay, I wish I hope my mother-in-law call in because I want to know the line. You just lying. No, you never told her no.

SPEAKER_03 16:41

I never said I told my mother no. I see you said America, how she tried to flip that on me. I didn't do that at all. You know what? Don't do that to me. Bob Barker got my back.

SPEAKER_02 16:56

Anyway, okay. Well, we'll wait for those phone calls because whoever called earlier, y'all need to call back. Come on, call back.

SPEAKER_03 17:02

I have an inkling who that was that was calling. I do. Oh, I have well.

SPEAKER_02 17:07

I'm gonna need I'm gonna need you to go ahead and call on back. But we'll move forward. So we that song we were just um playing, we were talking about the Michael Jackson movie. Lady of my life. Did you know that he and I do believe I'm probably wrong about this. I hope I'm not. Um, his nephew, Jafar. Oh, that's his name. That's his real name.

SPEAKER_03 17:26

The Tito boy.

SPEAKER_02 17:28

So Tito is the one that wears like the gumby the box.

SPEAKER_03 17:31

I don't know what Tito has going on with his hair. It's pretty ugly. A lot of it wears that.

SPEAKER_02 17:34

A lot of it is like painted, like from like right here and forward, it's like paint, and then the rest of it is like some kind of hair. I don't know.

SPEAKER_03 17:40

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 17:40

But um, they said that he took this role so serious because he did not want to disappoint his uncle. Exactly. But they say he was practicing from sun up to sundown to the point where his feet would bleed to get every single step right.

SPEAKER_03 17:54

So I heard an interview for with him the other day, and he was just saying those words, like I just didn't want to let my uncle down, and still to this day, he don't think he did a good enough job. But he put a lot of pressure on himself.

SPEAKER_02 18:07

That is a lot of I mean, that's what that family alone. Yeah, that's a lot of pressure. But what an honor, though, to be able to stand in front of the world and show how great your uncle was.

SPEAKER_03 18:17

Um, that's pretty dope. We got something from Mule Kick right here. Hey, she the one said it. She said, How do you compromise on finances, spending habits, especially when one person isn't financially responsible?

SPEAKER_02 18:35

I am the unresponsible party, am I not? I wouldn't say unresponsible, not unresponsible, but I have to be monitored because that goes with her spontaneousism.

SPEAKER_03 18:50

Sure is. That means impulse purchaser. Yes, that's exactly what that means. Yep. So that's why I wouldn't say irresponsible. You just you're you're very feeling I like a lot of things, yeah. But she's very feelings dominated. So is she feeling something right now? She's gonna do it. Oh, look at this on Amazon. Buy right now, yeah.

SPEAKER_02 19:12

No last told there.

SPEAKER_03 19:13

That's an impulse buyer by a spontaneous person. So you just have to figure out a happy medium with that mule kick. You gotta see what is Andrew, it's Andrea. What does she prove?

SPEAKER_01 19:24

I know, but I'm not calling her meal kick.

SPEAKER_03 19:26

I'll follow directions, but you gotta just have a conversation with that person. And if they go too far, like, hey, look, you gotta have receipts, literally receipts. Hey, look at this. Boom. Does that make any sense of what we're trying to do right now? What are you trying to do? I thought we was on the same page. Yeah, yeah. And if we're not on the same page, let us get on the same page, please. But it's just a conversation you gotta have.

SPEAKER_02 19:50

It's a but and it's so being a person that the conversation had to be had for, you just have to be re willing to receive it and just know, like, be honest about like, you know, I not to say I have a spending problem, but like he said, I'm an impulsive, uh, I have an impulsive personality. So like if I'm feeling a certain way, like I'm gonna go buy something to make me happy, or if I see something that I've been wanting for whatever, I'm not talking to him. Well, I used to not talk to him about it. I would just go get it and put it under the bed and act like I've had it for a couple months, bring it out and be like, he's like, oh, where you get that from? I've been had this. Um, but it's just having that conversation, the other person being um receptive of you know the finances.

SPEAKER_03 20:31

Definitely didn't have it the whole time. It's probably last week. And she told me, Oh, I've been at this since like you believe it.

SPEAKER_02 20:40

Yeah, I meant to say like 23 hours. Yeah. For 23 hours. But you be acting like you believe it.

SPEAKER_03 20:45

Because I don't all of you that are watching this on YouTube, you should be already liking and subscribing. Subscribe first, then like it, then share your subscriptions with the world.

SPEAKER_01 21:03

Please and thank you.

SPEAKER_03 21:04

And thank you, and please. Forgot to say that. That was very important that I needed to pass that on to you. But yeah, so just had that conversation with the impulsive buyer. But even if it's not an impulsive buyer, would they really have a problem that nobody raised them like that to be like, hey, you doing too much, you gotta chill out. Some people, believe it or not, have not been raised like that.

SPEAKER_02 21:25

So I don't think it's really like oh, I think that too, like you're not but you've not been raised like that. But I also think that people it's like a um an addiction.

SPEAKER_03 21:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 21:33

Of like buying and spending money is an addiction. It's what is that stuff called? Like a dopamine. Endorphins.

SPEAKER_03 21:39

Yeah, dopamine, dopamine, releasing them endorphins because it's a sign of happiness. It gives you a happy feeling. It gives you like that rush. I'd rather give my rush in other ways, but you know. Such as Hey, I told you.

SPEAKER_02 21:58

I hope you hit. That button in time.

SPEAKER_03 22:01

I didn't. Did anybody hear that? Nope. Oh dear. You didn't. Oh dear.

SPEAKER_02 22:06

SPEAKER_02 23:36

Very pro provocative. So does Usher. Chris Brown likes to bring ladies on stage, you know, straddle, maybe kiss. Usher, the whole cherry thing, which I that just still blows my mind because that's kind of actually that's just nasty. Oh my god! So how do how would you feel if I not that I want to go with a group of girls because I'd rather go with you, like honestly. But do you feel that that is an environment where all the how can I put this into words where you could trust well you can always trust me? I'm I'm trying to say this without. Um spit it out. I'm trying to spit it out. Do you think that's the environment that it should just be just girls only because of like the the provocative things and the possibility of getting pulled on stage, the possibility of sucking on a cherry or two? Um is that would you would you spend hundreds of dollars to get me a ticket for me to go with a group of friends? You not go knowing that that could occur.

SPEAKER_03 24:49

Hey, hey, look at my face as he says this. Bruh. Okay. Bruh. Girl, you said hundreds of dollars. Them things is more than hundreds of dollars. I mean, I would be talking thousands of dollars. We're talking about a pair of Jimmy chews. Okay, so would you Jimmy?

SPEAKER_02 25:11

Now that I know the question I'm trying to ask, and I'm not stuttering. Um now that I'm not stuttering. So say we're not married, right? Say we're dating, and I'm like, hey, I want to go to this concert with my girlfriends. You've already seen all the footage from both shows, and now they combined.

SPEAKER_04 25:32

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 25:32

And I'm like, it's just gonna be the girls, it's just us though. How's that go over?

SPEAKER_03 25:39

I mean, it goes over well because all I'm gonna do is pay for the nose, bleach, so your ass can't get close to them. You can watch it from way up there. They got jumbotrons and everything in there. You can go ahead and watch that from row 528, uh, row H, seat 37. Okay, no taking. I ain't never seen nobody go that high as a performer. I don't know.

SPEAKER_02 26:04

No, no, no, Chris Brown be fine flying through the rafters.

SPEAKER_03 26:06

Yeah, but he ain't about to hit the brakes in the nose. We'd be like, hey, you right there. Come here, let me take you down.

SPEAKER_02 26:13

You never know, you never know. But I I'm really excited to see how this show goes. Like that, they're two awesome performers.

SPEAKER_03 26:21

No, all jokes aside, it's really gonna be a good show. I enjoy both of their music. So it was uh uh somebody had a question on the internet, not here on this show, but it was uh whoa, whoa, wait a minute.

SPEAKER_02 26:37

Yes, okay, Shantae. Yes, thanks, sis. There we go.

SPEAKER_03 26:41

Hey, and I go be sure to tell security to not let either one of you in.

SPEAKER_02 26:46

SPEAKER_03 26:48

Family shamley, you're not going in. Call me, yeah. Call me. I will get her number forwarded to my phone so you call her, and I'ma answer and say, get the f out of here. She ain't going no more. But anyway, before I was ruling interrupted by Miss Champion.

SPEAKER_02 27:07

See, and Andrea said maybe she's too nice.

SPEAKER_03 27:12

Well, I mean, what do you mean? I don't care if she goes, I really don't. Because what they gonna do?

SPEAKER_02 27:20

You never know. Like, I've been backstage at concerts, like being a girl that gets picked out of a concert, the stuff that goes down backstage, you'd be surprised.

SPEAKER_03 27:28

And guess what? You the one that's gotta live with that for the rest of your life.

SPEAKER_02 27:32

Oh, yeah. I mean, when you see what they're doing, I'll never forget. Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_03 27:35

Yeah, and once again, you're gonna have to live with that moment for the rest of your life. Make that decision if you want to.

SPEAKER_02 27:41

At the and I can't believe I'm about to say his name, but I love his music still.

SPEAKER_03 27:46

R. Kelly.

SPEAKER_02 27:48

The one of the last concerts.

SPEAKER_03 27:50

Somebody got an urge to go to the bathroom.

SPEAKER_02 27:52

One of his last concerts here in Cleveland probably was 2007. I'm thinking. I don't know. It was before we were married.

SPEAKER_03 28:02

Before he was Akon. No, he locked up. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 28:05

Yeah, he should have been locked up at this point.

SPEAKER_03 28:07

And please don't let him out.

SPEAKER_02 28:09

Um, second row floor seats, and there was recruiters that go around and pick girls out of the crowd. We actually saw that at the new edition concert as well. And I got picked, and a couple of girls I was with got picked. We go backstage. As soon as you hit the back, they're asking for IDs. Which I didn't know why he cared at that point.

SPEAKER_03 28:27

Like, too late, brother.

SPEAKER_02 28:28

But when we turned that corner and I saw what I saw, I was like, we all were like, we're good. See you later by. Ain't I'm sorry. That is just like you, it was like girls standing in line ready to ride a ride. Oh, literally.

SPEAKER_03 28:44

Oh, they was riding a ride, all right. They were riding.

SPEAKER_02 28:48

Oh my gosh. So they're yeah, backstage at concerts are real. But if I go with Shantae, obviously that's not gonna happen because I would be with my sister and I'm married. Before first and foremost, I'm married, happily married.

SPEAKER_03 29:01

You should have said this when you turned the corner.

SPEAKER_02 29:04

I did.

SPEAKER_03 29:06

Whoa, what is going on back here? Hey, hey, Mel, you you know what I'm about to say. You know what Robert said that night? I don't know the whole time. People y'all had to be there, y'all have to watch that Gail interview with R. Kelly. Gail King and R.

SPEAKER_02 29:24

Kelly.

SPEAKER_03 29:25

There's so many hilarious parts in that interview. It's just straight comedy for me.

SPEAKER_02 29:30

He just at that point just should have worn a shirt instead of me just that said I'm guilty because he was saying so much that it was just like, Robert, please. But I I'm sorry, I still love that man's music. Yeah, no, I still love that man's music. I was like, I never love his music, but that was my story of what I saw backstage.

SPEAKER_03 29:53

Yeah, well, I've never been in that situation, so can't identify with it. But like I said, if you go there, and I ain't talking about you personally, if anybody goes there and you in a relationship, a marriage or whatever, and you go backstage, yeah. Sorry for your soul, yeah, because you're gonna have to deal with that for the rest of your life.

SPEAKER_02 30:13

And is it even worth it though? Like it's is it even worth it for them?

SPEAKER_03 30:17

It is clearly.

SPEAKER_02 30:18
