Season 2 : Episode 7 - 1969 Type of Love Revisited

It is a new year and we are back at it. This episode is a solo mission where I discuss the difference between standards and expectations in relationships. Expectations can be very detrimental to your relationship and dating life in general. Things like Birkin bag or bust turn intimacy into a transaction rather than building a foundation.

Recently, I noticed that a lot people don't like the movie, Love and Basketball, which is a classic love story in the black community. When asked why people didn't like it, many responses found me scratching my head as to what movie they had watch due to disparity between what the movie portrayed and what viewers said they observed. I wanted to show the parallels between misinterpreting a movie narrative and how easily we can do that same thing in relationships. The signals become so crossed to the point that a couple may find themselves in two separate relationships and not even know it. I would love to hear your thoughts on the movie? Did you like the movie? Why or why not? Any questions or suggestions are also readily accepted and appreciated.

Season 2: Episode 2 - My First Love/Wanting That Old Thing Back

This episode is a special request from one of the show's fans. The story is of a man with a wife and three children. He finds that after 8 years together he feels like a stranger in his own home. This is because he knows that all 3 of his children aren't his though all were conceived during his marriage. The reason that he knows this fact, DNA tests notwithstanding, is that he was injured in his youth and it has made him sterile. The man posted his story to Facebook, which is where I was introduced to it by a fan. He wanted to hear my take on the subject, seeing as this is a common occurrence in today's relationships. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blackvelvet/support
