      You need to provide commentary on this channel about Amy Cooper and how that false superiority mindset and power (as VP of a prominent investment firm) impacts(ed) the economical advancement of black communities for generations.
      There are many Amy Coopers and Adam Coopers. And even when black people surpass the systemic oppression and thrive, Black Wall Street happens, maybe to a lesser scale, but violent destruction nonetheless

      She asked to go to a specific restaurant that was a little out of his budget. Just like one of those other women on their said why didn't he tell her this is my budget, because telling a woman this is my dating budget means you're not the only one I'm dating and I got to save money to date other women or I can't afford you and if you can't afford the restaurant you want, then why didn't you just be smooth and say look hook up a meal for you and cook you that steak dinner or I'll cook you whatever you want to have their or ask her what she wanted to have there at the restaurant and you can learn how to make it because we got RUclips. I'd rather have a home-cooked meal. Then go go for a walk to work that home cook meal off. That's a perfect date

      My husband and I have been relationship communication coaches for many years. As well as married and together for over 23 years. I don’t have both sides of the story, but I don’t believe that this was the first time Anthony had talked about his budget. This is what he does for a living. Money is the #1 cause of strife in relationships, so it’s best this was dealt with from the beginning and not when they were further into the relationship.

      I could not agree more. And even when he told her that the particular restaurant she wanted was not in his budget this month, he still offered a date to a different place. He said he called her after the text and she didn’t respond. The best thing that happened to him was to know this early on.

      I can afford expensive restaurants for myself. I'm not in debt and I'm good at saving so I usually have a couple of grand lying around. I usually split the meal or pay for what I ordered even on the first date unless the man insist. I wouldn't be offended if the man said it wasn't in his budget because that has happened before. What I find offensive is the bit where he said "if we are still dating next month." Also next month was in a few weeks he said. Also he called once and left no message. I always communicate because asking questions and listening is the only way you learn. He could have left a voice note or a video message to get his point across. I think he shut down completely after she left him with the bubble and didn't answer his call. If think she probably shut down after the "if we are still dating" Of course we will never know because we never heard her side of the story. In relationships, if something upset us we have to say so explicitly and directly otherwise the other person won't know. They are not mind readers and they shouldn't always know what's in another person's head.

    “If we are still dating” just doesn’t hit right. 😬 You could have left that out and been fine. However, there was nothing wrong with his intention; in fact, it’s sexy. He’s got a lockdown on his finances and that shows structure which woman can interpret as security.
    And speaking about “in a month,” that’s also where the breakdown happened. He _said_ “in a month,” but he _meant_ the month that’s coming up in a week, but maybe she interpreted that as in 30-31 days from the time that text occurred, which is a long time.

If she wanted to be taken to a certain restaurant and his response was he is on a budget she should have been like we can split the budget....anyhow I think this lady showed that the place she wanted to be taken to was much more important than the guy......

    • @WordsPictures997
      @WordsPictures997 4 года назад +2

      @@ninobk196 Now that you and Mandisa have both mentioned the generational aspect I see how that's probably really a factor. I'm 30 and female. Though I don't agree with him saying the " If we're still dating " bit, I find the budget aspect very attractive. For me it shows that he's a man with a plan plus I can relate to having to say no to fun with friends sometimes because my budget simply doesn't cover it and I do ask my friends to give me at least a month's notice if they are looking at asking me to join a more pricy hangout. Also, I've watched a couple of Anthony's videos and noticed that he can be very brash but generally doesn't seem to be coming from a malicious space and just like in this video, he is open to learning. Perhaps that's part of the reason I wasn't deeply offended.
      Question though, as a lady in her 40's would you have presented an UNSOLICITED request to be taken out to an expensive restaurant on a second date expecting the gentleman to pay?

      @Words and Pictures I would not have asked him to take me to a specific restaurant, especially if it was expensive. When I've dated in the past, I have always been careful never to put a man in a situation where he felt he had to fine and dine me unless HE wanted to. Her intentions were clear and Anthony saw her intent, which probably led him to say "if we are still dating ....".
      I follow Anthony's channel and respect him and his work very much. I am also a money person and working towards early retirement- next year actually. I only say that to say that it has taken careful and methodical planning for the past 20 years to get to this point. There have been times when events arose that may have just been out of the budget, but if they were important to me, I would make it work. I was never rigid. Some things I didn't participate in and other things I did. If I went out to an expensive dinner, then I just wouldn't do X,Y, or Z. I would deduct whatever over spent amount I made, from something else in my budget (never savings or investment) to account for it. Sometimes it was soup for the whole week, sometimes it meant it had to come off of my self care line item, ie. No mani or pedi that month.The goal was to never change my budget, and it was good practice for discipline.
      I also think that as we become more educated in matters of money and incorporating healthy principles, we need to make sure not to treat our relationships as transactional. Money is a means to an end. Not all of our relationships are based on money and they shouldn't be. It's important of course, especially in a marriage setting, but it's not everything.

    Because the further down you go on that list the more likelihood that things will be misconstrued. Face to face you're less likely to misinterpret the heart, tone & facial expression of a person and good dialog will ensue.

      Exactly! Its not right. I believe she was trying to use him to try out the restaurant she probably could not afford by herself. If you are not going to pay for the date, you have to be respectful of what the person dropping the cash can afford. I personally believe that the first couple of dates should be relatively inexpensive....its all about being considerate to the guy. Dating should be about sitting to talk, not sampling cuisines....you can do that when you are in a relationship. I have been known to order just water on dates or get take-out, sit in the car and talk for hours or sit in the park and not even eat anything! Comeon, is she there for the food or for the person? We can do fine dinning when we are a couple, but first let me get to know you.

We have to stop putting so much emphasis on "dating" someone. This is the stage when you get to know someone. The young lady showed her character when she asked for an expensive restaurant on the 2nd date... again you are getting to know each other during this phase.

She clearly wasn't genuine in wanting to date and get to know him as a person. She was more concerned with him taking her to a certain restaurant instead. Simple as that. They didn't need a phone conversation to verify. Her actions via text and then not responding back when he DID call, her were telling enough. If she was mature enough then she could allowed him to explain what he meant by dating budget. Budget doesn't equal broke.

    Firstly, we know what the lady was there for, otherwise she would have negotiated a share in the bill, opted for the different restaurant AO offered or not have come back after seeing his supposed "fame".
    Secondly, with the "if we still dating" line. If she saw offense to it, she would have taken measures to correct it or see if Anthony was intentionally offensive.
    Otherwise, at least Anthony took the opportunity to reach out and she didn't accept it. So big ups to AO for moving on.💪🔥

    This was soooo good. So a rule of thumb that I have learned in communicating with people is that there are some points of conversation that needs to be had verbally. I have been in a situation where a friend's text was misinterpreted. I texted back and asked to have a verbal conversation about the issue, and I never got that verbal conversation. It made me question the friendship. Texting can be ineffective at times. I feel you AO!

This is about her expecting him to take her to a very expensive restaurant that is out of his budget. She wasn't accepting a $30 meal. She was expecting a $200 meal. And this is the first date! No, he doesn't have to do all of that for someone he just met. That's the kind of thing you do when you realize you really like each other and move into relationship status. Not on the first date!

This series is another great part of that. I am not single, but as you and Dr. D. have said already, this is NOT just for singles, this can be for everyone. The group that you brought together was very well chosen and they all play extremely well off of each other. A wide variety of personalities who each offer their insightful feedback, and incredible wisdom to the table. I am only on Pt 3 (and maybe it goes down hill after 3 who knows), but I can tell you I am looking forward to finding out.

    Calling without leaving a message, for me, is like not calling at all.
    If you are a man on a path to marriage, you will always and must be the bigger person. You don't give, what you get.
    Pick up the phone and call. If she is not available leave a message asking her to call you back at her earliest convenience.

    The problem is entitlement. Look they can say all day "that his tone is blah" or that "he should have called". Here is the thing we do know. Even if she was offended...he called....why didnt she return the phone call if it was THAT big of a deal? Communication is a 2 way street. She initiated through text. He responded in text. If the conversation had been "what's your favorite color" and he says "blue" is the text the problem? No. What it is....is the women want emotional security for their perception. AO text, he also called her. She recieved both. At that point her not choosing to continue communication for clarity is on HER!!!! He even says she texts him AFTER SEEING HIM IN TV!!!! She got his message and call but didnt respond and yet she responds seeing him on TV. So that tells you all you need to know. The woman was entitled and she felt like she deserved more because she is a woman. If she really cared about getting to know him the date place could have been worked out or arranged. She is wrong and the women's perspective is wrong. At what point does the woman have to be accountable for this? How many text and phone calls does a man have to make to be satisfactory? AO did right and that's the end of it.
