(00:00):
All right, so I want toget your two cents on this ck and
(00:02):
Carmen, it's be ninety five.I was just reading a survey that said
a happy couple, a happy couplegets down in the bedroom on average two
to three times a week, likeand it should be one of those things
where it's like, hey, look, you remember how it was in the
beginning of the relationship that energy needsto maintain throughout the relationship. And I'm
(00:27):
like, damn, two to threetimes a week. And when you're a
parent, you have children, youhave responsibilities, get up, take the
kids to school, you have towork yourself. Sometimes at the end of
the day you just don't have thetime. You're a little exhausted. But
I'm like, man, I feellike it would be a mutual agreement to
where you both are tired or justas tired as your openness. Yeah,
(00:50):
that's what I'm saying. Everybody isequally as tired. But then when I
think about it, I'm like,when you look at the totality of seven
days, it's really two to threetimes a week even really a lot.
Yeah, well I think it wouldbe. It's less than fifty percent,
right, But when you consider everythingthat's involved, and these schedules are crazy
(01:11):
too, right, you know,I get it. I get it,
and I mean even like reading thisstudy, right, it says some people
go up to as high as tento twelve times a week. I don't
know how you twelve. I don'tknow you fitting in ten to twelve.
I'm sorry. I would really liketo see how happy you are and what
they're actually taking. But you know, maybe, but I'm just saying so
(01:34):
it makes me go, and thenit made me go one step further with
my thoughts. We all see whenpeople get into retirement homes, how they
start wilding. Yeah, back bitdifferent because they revert to, you know,
feeling young, wild fain. That'sfunny that you say that, because
that's exactly what I started reading.I did some diving into it, and
(01:57):
they were like, it's be becauseyou feel like that energy from being single
having fun. You know, youknow that you're all in there together,
you're in the same environment, andyou know what, they have a good
you know, drive, they havea good drivironment one and two they ain't
got nothing else going on. Sofollow me on this, but little bingo,
(02:21):
so follow me on this. Ifthat energy is there unfortunately after the
person that you may have cared aboutpassed away or moved on or whatever that
happened in your life. It makesme go, you know what, maybe
there is something to the two tothree times a week. If you can
revert back to saying, well,now I want to have fun, and
(02:43):
I want to be young, andI want to be wild, and I
want to do silly things. I'mlike, well, hold on a second,
so you stop that when you wasthirty five, forty fifty, but
then now that you're over fifty fivesixty, you back to getting your freak
on again. I think there mightbe something to this study that says a
happy couple gets down at least twoto three times a week. Like it's
(03:07):
almost like, you gotta have thatintimacy, you gotta have that fun,
you gotta find that spark that madeyou go, man, there was that
animal attractiveness, that animal activism inour relationship from the junket, Like what
happened to that? I also feellike there's a lot of people that go
through roller coaster of emotions, right, so that it starts off this beautiful
relationship, right, maybe it ismaybe five times a week, you know,
(03:30):
and then it slows down and thenyou go back. But as long
as you have in my opinion,if you picked that back up, if
you both have that conversation and arekeeping it real with yourself and really love
each other and say, hey,you know what, we're kind of falling
off on what was making us specialand what was making us connect even more?
Right, and you go back tothat and then you feel that three
times a week again, then Ithink that's okay too. Because the thing
(03:52):
is that there's a lot of thingsthat happen in life. People lose family
members, they lose jobs, theylose passion in life, and stuff like
that happens. It can't affect yoursex drive. It really can in different
ways. So if you are listeningto this and thing yourself, damn,
I must not be in a happyrelationship. I might as not be in
a happy marriage. Just think thereare different situations that happen for different people.
(04:13):
Some of these people, by theway that our studied, don't have
kids, so it is a verydifferent lifestyle for everyone. Right. So
what they did with this study,just to give you even more background,
they did it based on ages.They did a twenty to thirty year old.
They did forty to fifty. Youknow, they did a multi true,
No, it was a overall thatwas the combined And what they said
(04:34):
was younger is more than two tothree, as you like in the twenty
to thirty year old category, it'smore than two to three. It's not
definitely right. So they came toan average, the average for a happy
relationship and couple, even in yourfifties, should be like two to three,
which made me think about how freakypeople get in retirement homes. And
(04:55):
we know that there's so many storiesout there about how freaki people get in
the retirement I'm like, so you'vebeen saving all this freakiness until you got
eighty. I'd also like to dissecthow long these relationships are. Let's be
honest, Okay, in the firsttwo years of relationship, if you're not
going this hard, then there's alreadya problem, right, you know.
(05:15):
So then then comes to longevity,then you've been again for so long,
y'all both tired. And I thinkthat's why they had to look at all
the ages and come together with likea common balance, a common ground.
Yeah, and you're right, atthe end of the day, there's so
many issues in relationships that may takethat sex drive away or different things that
in your mind you're like, Ican't get through this or whatever it may
(05:39):
be. But I will say thison the flip side of that, does
your partner deserve to be dragged throughthat? So if you're sitting there going,
you know what, I'm having myissues at work. I just don't
feel like doing that. Well,what about your girl who doesn't have those
issues at work, that loves you, that's sitting there going to work and
comes home, cooks clean, doesall those things, and she's sitting back
(05:59):
in she's going, Yeah, butmy man, my man's having issues at
work. So we haven't got downin over two weeks. This is like,
Bruta, do your job. Thisis why they say communication is because
if you're not communicating these situations andthat you're having at work or whatever you're
feeling, then there's an issue.And so that's why I think we're doing
a public service right now just studying. You know, on average, it
(06:21):
doesn't have to be you. I'mjust saying a quard to this study on
average two to three times a week. Yeah, so get back to that,
You get back to your freakingness.Do you feel like it's died down
a little bit? Have that conversationand say, hey, I heard King
Karmont this morning talking about this,this and that. What do you think
are you? Do you think we'refalling off? That's a good icebreaker right
there, to get you. Hejust broke the ice for yaf. You
(06:43):
know what I'm saying. You justbroke the ice for you. Matter of
fact, if you want to getthis, it will be in podcasts for
him. You can play it foryour partner, playing for your girl.
You'd be like, look, hey, listening to what's Kan Carmen talking about?
Like interesting conversation. Listen to this, baby, It's nice, that's
nice. But you know the peoplethat do the war the roads the second
day update, they was rob infact this morning. Listen to this.
It was Robin Fax this morning.All right, so just a little information
