Rico explained that very well. Every time I hear women say they are putting themselves 1st everyone around them kids included tend to suffer during and after the process. The ones I know typically never improved for the better during that process.

“Men and Women are wired differently,we are saying the same thing but we are interpreting in different ways/different extremes” Bravo to this conversation especially the last 10 min. Without picking a side or simplifying the discord to right vs wrong. Rico did a great job explaining a man’s perspective regarding “putting yourself first” without demonizing women and the responses from the rest of the panel highlighted the difference of opinion. I also found it interesting when Rico’s description of healing was dismissed in less than 10 seconds. Shout out to the rest of the panel because this content wouldn’t be as valuable without you!

1. Despite trying to reach them, one week without a response is an avoidance tactic and a sign of either emotional immaturity or that person doesn't care enough about the relationship. Regardless of the reason, learn to walk away. Allowing these habits during the dating phase will lead to extremes during the marriage. 2. If you're going to be selfish in a relationship, remain single. A man should express love through protection and provision to their woman, and she should respect his authority and be loyal to him. Any ounce of individualism/"do it for myself"/selfish means neither should be in a relationship.

Never go to sleep mad with your spouse you must discuss it

Really bad. If she won't speak to yoh for a WEEK? That's an emotionally unbalanced person.

Damn, I wish this platform could evolve into a more mature dialogue… I’ve seen the growth in Rico, Amanda is who she’s always been & Erin, who was always the most level headed seems to backsliding into the toxicity of the culture.

It’s a clear sign for yall to go your separate ways…
