00:00All right, now today we are going to talk about black love, uncut dating, relationships, and how to keep it spicy.
00:08Now, no matter what your relationship status is, whether you're single, if you're dating, if you're in a relationship, married, divorced, whatever it might be,
00:17how many of you guys know that love is a journey?
00:22And we all know that there is nothing like black love, right?
00:26All right, so here to kick off the conversation are the hosts of tonight's conversation podcast, Ace Metaphor and Trill AC.
00:35Come on out, fellas.
00:43Sexy talk.
00:46Y'all ain't got enough energy for me.

00:53Get it.
00:56How y'all feeling?
00:58Good.
00:59Amazing.
00:59How you doing?
01:00Good.
01:01Y'all ready to talk about relationships and dating and stuff?
01:03Oh, yeah, for sure, for sure.
01:04We got to bring some friends first.
01:05One more time.
01:06I said we got to bring some friends first.
01:07We got some friends backstage to bring out.
01:09Oh, yeah.
01:10Absolutely.
01:11You going to go ahead and bring them out?
01:12You want me to bring them out for you?
01:13You know what?
01:14You can do it.
01:15Let me do it.
01:15Yeah.
01:16All right.
01:17I want to bring out somebody that is very special.
01:19Drop dead gorgeous.
01:20She is an absolute superstar.
01:23She's an entrepreneur and a television personality.
01:26The one, the only, New Orleans-owned Toya Johnson Rushing.
01:33Hello, gorgeous.
01:35And the one, the only, actor, Tyler Lepley.
01:38Now, y'all know y'all going to get that scrumptiousness a little bit more.
01:47Give it up for Toya and Tyler.
01:50Clap it up, clap it up, clap it up, clap it up.
01:54I'm going to let y'all talk.
02:00All right.
02:00Y'all can sit on down.
02:01Y'all can sit on down.
02:04Essence Fest.
02:05Y'all having a good time.
02:05Make some noise.
02:07It feels so good to be here.
02:10Before we get started, I know you probably already know about our esteemed guests, but
02:14if we can, you mind introducing yourself, telling the audience a little bit about yourself,
02:18Ms. Toya?
02:18My name is Toya Johnson Rushing.
02:20I'm a mother, a wife, an entrepreneur, a New York Times bestselling author, and I do
02:26a little bit of reality TV.
02:28Flex on them then.
02:29You better flex on them.
02:31All right, Tyler, you want to tell the audience a little bit about yourself?
02:35A little bit about myself.
02:36Hello, my name is Tyler Lepley.
02:38Good to see y'all out here.
02:41I am an actor.
02:42I'm a father.
02:42I'm a son.
02:43Soon to be husband.
02:45And I'm a child of God.
02:46I'm very happy to be here this year at Essence Fest with y'all.
02:49Amen.
02:49Tyler, how do you get the girls to scream for you like that?
02:53I don't get no screams.
02:56Mike, do you get...
02:57They ain't screaming for me.
02:57Trill, AC, you get screams?
02:59Can you wave?
03:01A little bit.
03:02How y'all doing?
03:02Let me see.
03:04Yes.
03:04All right, listen.
03:05They booked us to talk about relationships, so we're going to try to give some healthy
03:09advice to the Essence Fest.
03:11All right, so I got some questions.
03:13Now, you guys are about to be off the market officially, and you're already off the market.
03:18Okay.
03:18So we're going to ask...
03:19They want me to ask about singles.
03:21So what's the biggest challenge you see black singles facing when it comes to dating in today's
03:28world?
03:28I would say expectations.
03:31Like, I think sometimes people's expectations are so high of things.
03:39Like, I really do think that sometimes, their expectations.
03:43And one thing is social media.
03:45They're looking at other people's relationships, comparing it, and they don't know what the
03:49heck them people be going through.
03:51So that's why they can't even get to know a person, because as soon as they meet them,
03:55they...
03:56I want this.
03:57I want this.
03:58I need the goals that I see this person have.
04:00It's just a lot of comparing going on.
04:02Can I ask you a question?
04:02You said social media.
04:04Yeah.
04:04So let's say I'm dating, but I send a girl that I'm not dating an emoji in her Insta stories.
04:11That mean you're trying to holler at her.
04:12But that's just...
04:13I'm just being a friend on social media, right?
04:15That's not cheating.
04:15Well, and the people say, I don't know, because I ain't been outside.
04:19But from what I'm hearing, if you send an emoji or if you like double text, keep clicking,
04:25that mean you're trying to get their attention.
04:26Right, ladies?
04:27Yeah, yeah, yeah.
04:28Yeah, that's what I think.
04:29So if I'm in a relationship, I shouldn't send hard eyes to the DMs, right?
04:34No?
04:35Maybe?
04:36I'm just being a friend.
04:37Tyler, what would you say is the biggest struggle when you were single?
04:42I think it's probably a little bit to piggyback off of what Toya said, is I just feel like
04:50because it's...
04:50Maybe it's expedited because of social media.
04:53I don't want to put it all on that.
04:54But I feel like everybody has this idea of what you want, so it makes the relationship
04:59like transactional, you know?
05:01So you're only in it for yourself.
05:03It's either what can you give me or I give myself up fully and have like some type of
05:08crippled loyalty, you know, as opposed to finding a true, you know, both feet in, give
05:13and take relationship where we can bring something to it, take something away from it.
05:16You know, Trill, before I get to you, you know the first thing that came to my mind?
05:22Whatever.
05:22The problem with black singles or the dating market is everybody say it's pee in the pool.
05:29They don't realize they to pee in the pool.
05:31It's like everybody pointing the finger at everybody else.
05:34Like, why is the pool so pissy?
05:36You, you, you.
05:38People not healing.
05:40They not, they not, they going from relationship to the relationship.
05:43You ain't seen not one therapist.
05:45You ain't seen not one counselor.
05:47You ain't had one session of singleness where you can sit down and focus on yourself.
05:50You just keep getting back in the pool.
05:52Trill, what would you say?
05:54I would agree.
05:55I think the main issue, in my opinion, is like people not knowing themselves and not knowing what it is that they want.
06:01Right.
06:01So if I know myself and I go into the dating pool and I got a rubric, I got requirements, X, Y, Z, you got to meet them or we don't have no chance.
06:09Right.
06:09But if I don't necessarily know myself, then I'm going in and accepting just what comes to me.
06:13That's why when I talk to people and I'll be like, hey, what's your type?
06:16They say, I don't have a type.
06:17I say, that's a big problem because when you don't have a type, that means you're open to anything coming into your space.
06:23You're open to entertaining anything in hopes that it'll land into something more permanent.
06:28But I think that's the main thing.
06:29Once you get to know yourself, dating becomes a lot easier because you get to avoid that pool that you're referring to.
06:35Mike, our expert dater on the panel.
06:39Mike, what would you say is the biggest challenge?
06:41You know, I say people don't even want love no more.
06:44They want help.
06:45They want babysitters.
06:48They want bail bondsmen.
06:50They want cash app senders.
06:54They want a stimulus.
06:56Okay.
06:57You got to get one from the government because it ain't coming from me.
07:02Tell them.
07:03People don't need love.
07:04They need help.
07:04I want somebody that's actually looking for a partner in this crazy, crazy planet that we on.
07:10Somebody that's going to laugh at my jokes.
07:12Somebody that's going to take that stress off of me when I got to be a man outside in this world.
07:17So I have a question.
07:19Tell me.
07:19So what about the men, like, doing, like, you know, courting women or opening doors or being respectful or treating a man, I mean, a woman, how a woman's supposed to be treated?
07:31I feel like now men don't even really approach women like that.
07:35It's like they want to be approached.
07:36It's like how did the road, how did things just...
07:38Because y'all be peeing in the pool, too.
07:40We used to have to do that.
07:42I used to have to walk to a woman's house back in the day because I couldn't text her when I felt like it.
07:46I had to show effort.
07:48But I'm getting the same sex now with two texts and a cash app as I used to have to get with four dates, two umbrellas, and a handhold.
07:57And, you know...
08:00Y'all got to raise the price.
08:01You got to raise the price.
08:02Now, to piggyback off of what you were just asking for, though, there are some men that do that.
08:07But they get called lame.
08:09No, that's a gentleman.
08:10It's a man that when he parked the car, he'd say, hold on, don't touch your seatbelt.
08:15He'd do this.
08:19And he'd let you out.
08:20And it's a woman that's like, girl, this dude is lame.
08:23This dude is lame.
08:24So I think a lot of men have tried being the good guy, and they realize that it don't work.
08:30Well, just like the women, they have some women out here that don't run into those kind.
08:36They run into the kind that want to be, you know, they feel like they're the price coming in all the way.
08:41Like, because I have a lot of single friends.
08:43I'm married.
08:43I have a lot of married friends, and I have a few single friends.
08:46And my few single friends, they're women of quality.
08:48Like, they're, you know, hard-working, successful women.
08:51And they are having the hardest time finding a quality man.
08:56No, they don't want just the transactional things you speak of.
09:00They want a real man, somebody to build with, somebody to grow with.
09:03But they didn't try dating apps.
09:05They didn't try different things.
09:06And it's like, everybody just want to have sex.
09:09Can I ask you a question?
09:10When you say they're quality, what do you mean?
09:11I mean, they are hard-working women.
09:14They are mothers.
09:15They do have kids.
09:16They take care of themselves.
09:17They carry themselves classy.
09:19They know how to treat a man.
09:20They have wifey material.
09:22Do they live in Atlanta?
09:23They do.
09:24Hey, hey, I'm in Atlanta, so we can chat right afterwards.
09:27Yeah, I'm going to hook you up with a good woman.
09:30I'm looking, I'm looking.
09:31All right, I got question number two.
09:34How do you keep passion and intimacy alive in long-term relationships or marriage?
09:40Don Julio!
09:42Okay, Tyler, what would be your best advice to keep that intimacy and passion going?
09:49I mean, I ain't mad at a little Don Julio rep-o, you know.
09:52But, you know, I think this is why it's so important to develop a real friendship before you get into something serious.
09:59Because when you come into some of those hard times or, you know, the monotony of life starts dragging you down, you know, you can lean on your best friend to kind of pick you up.
10:08And I think just kind of, I think just remembering what you got into in the first place.
10:13I think one thing that I, one thing that I've experienced in my lifetime is, you know, sometimes when there's an issue, it's like I have two choices I can make.
10:23Like, I, like, I can think about all the negative things that I'm feeling right now.
10:28You know, she nagging me, she this and that.
10:30And it's like, it's all, all the negative side comes up.
10:32And I feel like a lot of times when we, when we come into these problems with our significant, significant others, it's like we'll focus on that side of it.
10:39But we, I think it's also important to focus on, you know, the positive side of the coin as well.
10:44It's like you got heads and tails, but it's, you know, it's, it's all about what you're choosing to take a look at as well.
10:49I feel like those are some of the things that help.
10:51Tori, what do you think?
10:52I feel like making your partner feel seen, making them feel heard, that goes both ways, not just for the woman, that goes for the man as well.
10:59Because I feel like as a woman, we can't pour from an empty cup and men either.
11:04So if they're not getting the love they need, and if we're not getting the love, we need the attention we need.
11:09If we're not feeling seen or heard, we feel like, damn, fuck it.
11:12Like, you know, you, you kind of start to feel the way, and that's what caused a lot of women and men to cheat because they're lacking something at home.
11:19But if you're making your partner feel seen, showing up for your partner, making them feel loved, like, you know, just like it was in the honeymoon stage.
11:27I mean, intimacy is not just about, to me, it's not just about sex.
11:32Can we start there, though?
11:33Can we start there, though?
11:34So it's more about, like, carrying it on, like, dating your woman, making her, you know, complimenting your woman.
11:42Like, it's the little things that drew her to you in the beginning, and it's the little things that drew him to you in the beginning.
11:49So it's like, don't stop at the honeymoon stage.
11:52Relationships is work.
11:53It's not easy.
11:54It's not hard.
11:55Marriage is hard.
11:57But it's worth it when you find your person.
12:00You know what I'm saying?
12:01And it takes work on both sides.
12:03It ain't no one-sided thing.
12:05You know, it takes you, you know, making compromise, like, you got to compromise, and you have to understand, you have to keep your partner happy both sides.
12:14Trill, Trill, what would you say is the best way to keep that passion and intimacy?
12:18Man, I would say, like, don't, again, like, don't stop doing what got me here.
12:23Right.
12:24A lot of times earlier in the relationship, like, it's no-ho's boy.
12:28Like, she's jumping off ceiling fans, hanging on the chandeliers and all types of stuff to get us into the relationship.
12:34Then we get into the relationship, and we fall into a routine.
12:38Kids come into play.
12:39Career come into play.
12:41I'm too tired today come into play.
12:43I think you got to maintain what it is that got that person here.
12:46Don't just land the job and then start showing up late to work.
12:49And I think that's what a lot of people do and use life getting in the way as an excuse.
12:53So you said Don Julio.
12:55Is that the only thing?
12:56Oh, no.
12:57You know, don't be afraid to make the remix, okay?
13:00Yeah.
13:01Because y'all had one love song, but now you need a remix.
13:04You know I'm a poet.
13:05So it might mean you got to go back to your hairdresser and tell her you want the 26, 28 ombre kind of switch it up, okay?
13:13I think if you really, I think you need to swap out the Lulu for some House of CB, change the outfit, okay?
13:23Mix it up a little bit and keep the spice going because being with somebody for some times,
13:28especially when everything seems to be about new or fresh or exclusive,
13:35sometimes that partner of like seven, eight years, that relationship gets a little stale.
13:39Make the remix.
13:40Take a vacation, change your hairstyle, fellas, grow the beard out, maybe get you a little curly top or something.
13:48Hey, can I ask the ladies in the audience the question?
13:53Is your man allowed to cut his beard without your permission?
13:58Without a beard?
13:59Okay, okay.
14:00Right, okay.
14:01Did you have a question?
14:02I was going to say it was something to piggyback off of what he was saying.
14:06I forgot my train.
14:07Oh, don't worry about it.
14:08Okay, now look, I will say this before we move to our next question.
14:12The part about intimacy, though, is oftentimes you never really had it.
14:17You may have had the passion.
14:19You may have had the lust.
14:21You may have had great sex, but you didn't have intimacy.
14:24So I think it's important to establish that prior in that relationship so that now when you're looking to get it back,
14:30you're actually getting back something you've already had because most people are trying to find something they never had.
14:36And then when you ask your partner to be intimate and vulnerable and open, now you see a partner that you don't like because this partner was never their true selves.
14:45They were who they thought they had to be in order to attract you.
14:49But now when you're asking them to actually tell you their secrets, you don't like what you see.
14:53So I think it's important for us to be open and vulnerable ourselves when it comes to dating,
14:57and that opens the door for other people to be open and vulnerable to us.
15:00All right, next question.
15:03How can couples work through past trauma without making their partners feel responsible for their healing?
15:09I think working on the trauma before you get to me is the answer to that.
15:16Too late.
15:17I'm not responsible for trauma that happened prior to me getting there, and people don't do that.
15:22They just jump from relationship to relationship and then throw that trauma at somebody and expect them to catch it.
15:29Your partner's responsibility is maintenance, not construction.
15:33I agree.
15:33I'm not a construction worker, right?
15:36Like, again, I equate it to, like, buying a car.
15:39Like, why am I paying full price for a car that I got to put together in my garage when I get it to my house?
15:44No, you need to be functional when you get to me.
15:47If a headlight goes out, I fix that.
15:49If a windshield crack, I fix that.
15:52But I shouldn't be responsible for putting the entire engine and the whole car together when I pay full price for it.
15:58Come to me serviceable.
16:01But we're here now.
16:02I mean, I get what you said.
16:04Excellent advice before you get in a relationship.
16:06But what happens when you find out that person that you like and you love got some childhood issues they ain't solved?
16:13Shit, I do.
16:14We all have a little baggage and trauma with us.
16:17But the thing is, therapy is key.
16:20You can't put all of that on your partner.
16:22They know that.
16:23We say that's very cliche.
16:25Get you a therapist.
16:26Go load it on your therapist.
16:27Talk to your therapist because it is not your partner's job to fix you all the way.
16:33You have to fix you first.
16:34So I totally agree with that.
16:36Okay.
16:36Anybody else got anything to add?
16:38Are we good on that one?
16:39You know, for all of my people out here that can't afford therapy, I think you need to look up in the sky and talk to the God of your understanding and realize that sometimes it's going to take somebody else besides the two of y'all.
16:54If there's an elder, if there's a pastor, for me it's God because he's free, right?
17:01The only thing you want is for me to serve, but he lets me know I'm not in this alone.
17:05And sometimes if I don't fear my partner, if that bond with that human ain't where it needs to be that day, at least I got somebody else looking up to and getting my strength from.
17:17Because some days it's hard.
17:18Some days you ain't got it.
17:20Some days you ain't going to be able to show up.
17:21And as long as me and you believe in something higher than us, then our egos will never get away.
17:28And that trauma will always heal.
17:30Oh, you spitting.
17:32Hey, you found that lighter, didn't you?
17:34I'm a poet.
17:35You found that lighter, boy.
17:37I'm a poet.
17:38Okay.
17:38All right.
17:38All right.
17:39All right.
17:39Question four.
17:40What role does vulnerability play in building trust and deeper connections?
17:46They wrote us some $5 questions, didn't they?
17:49Well, you know, I like this one because this means you can put on that nice little two-piece because the best way to get vulnerable is to strip down.
17:58Now, it could be emotional, but I'm talking about the physical.
18:02So I know that you feel safe with me when all you got is two pasties and a G-string.
18:09I'll rock with that.
18:10Okay.
18:10So vulnerability, though.
18:13Let me ask you a question.
18:14Trill, do you think people during dating are truly vulnerable with each other before going into another step of the relationship nowadays?
18:23I say hell no.
18:25I think most people are terrified at the beginning of this to even show their true self.
18:29Most people are wearing a mask for the first six to eight months of the relationship.
18:33And we're going to keep it honest.
18:34You understand?
18:34But I think, you know, eventually it gets hot under that mask and you've got to take it off.
18:38And now I'm left with something that I didn't necessarily sign up for.
18:41I think vulnerability is absolutely necessary because we can't grow as a couple if there's no safe space to us to communicate non-judgmentally.
18:50And what I mean by that is when I come to you and I'm expressing grievances that I want you to fix, I don't need you to interrupt me.
18:55I need to be able to get it off.
18:57I don't need you to get defensive.
18:58I don't need you to just break down crying just to try to sway the argument in the other direction.
19:02We've got to have an open line of communication.
19:04That's the only way we can grow.
19:06And I think most people fear vulnerability so that open space is never allowed.
19:11And that's why most relationships fail because there's no vulnerability.
19:14Trill, you know what the issue is?
19:15Hold on.
19:15Hold on for a second.
19:16You know what the real issue is?
19:18The real issue is we think people just put the mask on before they came to the date with us.
19:23Like they live their normal lives, their true selves.
19:26And then just when they're dating us, they put, no, that person's mask been on well before they met you.
19:31Oftentimes the reason they're afraid to be vulnerable with you or afraid to show you who they truly are is because they're afraid to see themselves.
19:38It's like you look in the mirror and you don't like what you see, so you pretend to be something to yourself.
19:42So I think the first step to that is being honest with yourself, being self-aware and emotionally intelligent enough to know what you are good at, where you lack at, where you need help at, which are you even qualified dating right now?
19:56Because here's the thing.
19:57We often ask about, I think you alluded to it before, there's quality people in the dating pool that are not finding matches, and they keep going through the cycle of toxic person after toxic person.
20:07It's because you can look at them and be like, that's a quality catch.
20:09But on the inside, they don't feel that way.
20:12And so if you don't, I was about to cuss.
20:15If you don't mess with you, if you don't love you, if you don't accept you, then this is why you're hiding yourself from other people.
20:22Did you have a comment?
20:23What he was saying, I was saying women, what he's saying is be his peace because a lot of times when men are vulnerable to us, it's like we're not listening.
20:36It's like we hear you, but we have to say something back.
20:39So they feel like they can't really talk to us how they want to.
20:45So they need us to be their peace sometimes.
20:47Just hear them out, listen to them without always thinking you have the answer to fix it.
20:51That's something I had to learn with my husband, by the way.
20:54Like, you know, I always have a rebuttal to things he was saying.
20:57I'm like, but you didn't tell me that.
21:00But I can't talk to you.
21:01So it's like you have to listen to them.
21:05Be their peace.
21:05Sometimes we don't always have to go back and forth and not make them comfortable to open up and come to us and tell us things that they are going through or dealing with.
21:14So, yeah, be his peace.
21:16Ladies, would your last relationship describe you as peaceful?
21:22Who last?
21:23Would your last?
21:24If I had to get a reference, right?
21:27Like, let's say before you got in a relationship, you had the relationship credit score.
21:32And let's say I called, right?
21:34Would he say that you was peaceful?
21:36Yes.
21:38You a damn lie.
21:39You a damn.
21:40Hey, hey, hey, we do these shows around the country.
21:43I ain't never heard a group of women just be honest.
21:46Like, no, no.
21:48All right.
21:49Did you have anything to build on that one?
21:50Are you good?
21:52I mean, I don't know.
21:53Y'all hit the nail right on the head.
21:55I will say this about my experience.
21:57You know, like, vulnerability comes in a few, like, different, you know, forms.
22:01Obviously, we can strip down butt naked.
22:03You know what I'm saying?
22:03But it's like, you know, if we're speaking about the emotional side of it, I'll say that it's very important because in my experience, I have found that sometimes the letdown of, like, a relationship being severed prematurely is such a negative impact that you don't want to put anybody up on that pedestal again.
22:21You know?
22:22So what I found, yeah, and I can speak on therapy.
22:25You know, I've been there for a while.
22:26So, you know, what I noticed is if, you know, if you do that without fixing what's going on, you know, you end up going from relationship to relationship like y'all talked about, but you're in it.
22:35It's almost like you're in the relationship with one foot in, one foot out.
22:37So, like, at the first sign of something, you know, you're ready to leave because you're not all the way in anyway.
22:43It's almost like you're, you know, you're expecting something to go wrong.
22:47And I just feel like when you walk in like that, you're almost crippling it before it even gets off the ground, which is why it's most important to, you know, it's just really important to work on yourself before you, you know, you pass all this off to somebody else.
23:01And just to add on what he said, not only expecting it to go wrong, but if it's going too good, I'll force it to go wrong.
23:07Like, whoo, as a safety net, you understand, because I'm not used to this type of thing.
23:12I'm used to toxicity.
23:13I'm used to chaos.
23:14And you are too healed.
23:15We are communicating too well.
23:17So, this is terrifying me.
23:19Let me sabotage it so I can get back to what I'm comfortable with.
23:22I agree with that.
23:23All right, last question.
23:25For those who feel discouraged or exhausted by love, what's one piece of advice you would offer them to help reset?
23:33I would say sometimes it's okay to take a break and focus on you.
23:38Pour into you, heal, before finding love again.
23:41Because if not, you're bringing all of that past, like he said, the past baggage into the new relationship because you're not healed.
23:48Sometimes you have to be whole.
23:51You know, you have to be whole before you get to be somebody else's half.
23:54So, focus on, like, healing and getting yourself together.
23:58Take a break from dating.
24:00Like, just work on yourself.
24:02It's okay, you know, to work on yourself, pour into yourself, and then, you know, find love alone.
24:07I know that's easier said than done.
24:09But if not, you're going to repeat the same cycle over and over again.
24:13Trill?
24:14Yeah, I agree.
24:16I'd also say, bro, like, just run your race.
24:19A lot of times we be looking at our friend that got engaged or looking at this person getting married or this person just done found a new boyfriend.
24:26They happy as hell.
24:27When it's going to be my turn?
24:28When it's going to be my turn?
24:29You do not want to rush into the wrong thing just to have somebody next to you.
24:34You understand?
24:35So, really do that healing just like she's saying.
24:37And, you know, at the end of the day, once you're whole, a lot of times, just based on law of attraction, the type of people are going to flow your way anyway.
24:45You know what I'm saying?
24:45But if you go into it broken, what's the point of rushing to something?
24:49If it's going to fail, then I'm going to be right back in the pool at the end of it.
24:52Those are good things.
24:53Listen, I think that's been our time.
24:57I think that's been our time.
