I hear you, and I completely agree-this isn’t a transactional deal. Spending money on a date doesn’t obligate anyone to have sex, period. That’s a boundary no one should feel pressured to cross. When I say keeping the first date inexpensive, it’s not because of any obligation tied to sex-it’s about creating a space for genuine connection without added pressure or expectations. Unfortunately, some people do struggle with codependency or people-pleasing tendencies, and that can lead them to feel an unnecessary obligation to make others happy, even at their own expense. Intentional dating means being mindful of your boundaries and prioritizing authentic connection. If someone thinks their financial investment entitles them to something, they’re not the right person to build a meaningful relationship with anyway. Keeping the first date simple is more about setting the tone for honest, mutual connection-not because of external expectations.

There’s no reason women can’t "shoot their shot" if you’re interested in someone. In today's dating world, it's totally normal for anyone to make the first move, regardless of gender. For some women, taking the initiative can feel empowering and helps clear up any uncertainty. It really comes down to what feels right for you. If you like someone and feel comfortable and secure enough to make a move, there's nothing wrong with that. But if we are speaking years of attraction to someone and he hasn’t made any move I would say prepare yourself for rejection depending on the man and his confidence level I don’t know too many men who wouldn’t make a move on a woman their attracted to rather they themselves are attractive or not.

But you said you made the move already how did he respond to it?

When leading to marriage

As Christian intimacy very important esp both partners waiting till marriage. Need that talk. Know partners love language first. Maybe guy sex drive mostly high. Might women love sex but first love language is "security". The more secure she is financially open up for more sex.

I’m curious to know if she refuses to cook, clean, or give you the cookie because she’s not paying bills would she have a voice then?

@PureIntentions314 useless trick wouldn't have a key to the house....she can go scuk dcyk to pay rent or get a promotion like the rest of the 304s...🤣

Don't let social media ruin a good thing in your home!

Don't ask straight up. Here's some questions of how you can ask though: What are your thoughts on financial stability in a relationship? What's one financial lesson you've learned the hard way? What's your thoughts on these?

Thank you so much! We would love if you shared it with someone who may need it.

Studies show that women lose more than men even though men income declines more after divorce. One report from the US Government Accountability Office found that men’s household income fell by just 23% after divorcing past the age of 50. Although this might seem like a relatively large number, the truth is that women suffer much more on average The same study published by the US Accountability Office found that women’s household income fell by 41% after separating past the age of 50. Typically when the man is taking care of the financial responsibility in a relationship him leaving stops access to those funds so you wouldn’t want the woman to have any stability after divorce?

Typically divorces end due to infidelity and or financial issues. Yes men do lose a substantial amount of money during divorce but do you believe that most divorces lead to the woman getting “screwed” in marriage? I would like to know your thoughts on that

Are you saying the response that he gave was a beta male response? If so we would like to know why do you believe that?

@PureIntentions314 if a man did that it would be dishonest! Nobody needs a so called "woman " like that. Men don't need woman anymore that's why there's prostitutes you pay them to leave.

Maybe... sometimes... never 🤣

Sometimes, people develop certain behaviors based on beliefs they've adopted unconsciously. When you're able to openly share your feelings with your partner, and they understand that what may seem "normal" to them-like not acknowledging communication-isn't what makes you happy, they start to take your needs seriously. In our case, when I bring up an issue, it can feel like he isn't listening, but he actually hears me because he makes an effort to change the behavior that caused me to feel that way. That's why understanding communication differences is so important, and we dive deeper into this in the full episode. It might seem like a lack of acknowledgment to me, but in his mind, he's already processing the problem and thinking about how to fix it, so he doesn't feel the need for further discussion. It's not that he's dismissing me; he's just in problem-solving mode and tends to shut down as a result.

We had to make this the 1st topic because it's so necessary to set the foundation.

Interesting take! Do you think there's a way to bridge that gap so men feel heard and understood? What do you think could help build that trust?

There is no time frame, we all heal at different speeds but the emotional scars will always remain. But...anything Ike 1 day...is too soon.

Communication in relationships is the next topic. It's coming out Wednesday. Thank you so much for watching!

LOL It's a real thing! This is the Preseason but Cuffing Season is December 1-January 15. Google "cuffing season schedule" and you'll see our full calendar on the search results.

You late 😂

@@matsosomsetho9720 we value your opinion can you elaborate on why you feel it’s nonsense?

@@ReginaldA-z6u some people do feel like that defines what their worth is and everyone is entitled to their feelings but I agree it does not constitute your worth. Our podcasting is to set back those social media expectations and get people back to dating for a true purpose with pure intentions.

@ I can dig it.

@@ebonyfair9487 I agree. It seems as though everyone is competing with who can do what better. I remember when baby showers were just at the house with a couple of balloons and a banner and fun games now it’s an entire production. Our hope is to filter out glitz and glamour and get an audience that understands that the best thing you can do in your dating life is be the best version of you not what you see.
