- Sex vs Intimacy
Is there a difference between sex and intimacy? Spoiler alert: Yes. The real question becomes at what point do we learn the difference and, most importantly, what does intimacy look like for each of us individually. Tabitha and Chance are joined by couples Greg & Diamond and Lashanna & Gene who define the role intimacy has played in their lives when dealing with infertility, multiple kids, grief, and just busy schedules.

LaShanna being 45 but looking 29 is my type of vibe.
Right! I was thinking they were both in their early 30's.
Girl looks good for real!!
she looks amazing for her age
People are not slaving in the sun like they use to. The sun contributes alot to aging.
sis!!!!! She said 45 and I'm like twenty what?
I absolutely loved this. Chance and tabitha are hilarious..the moment chance recognized what he did wrong or not enough was powerful. That was so emotional, and transparent. I appreciate that so much.
These couples are so amazing
I love watching this show. I am relearning , revisiting and reminded of all the important things God has taught me and to keep doing it. See, listen and ask intentionally what do you need, be there when loss hits for the other and don't be afraid to say from time to time ( do you want to talk about it ) those words not said mean a whole lot too. And take care of each other. Relationship is mental, emotional and Spiritual. God bless this show. Thanks so much. I pray all the best for them
I love!! love!! this conversation Tabitha Brown and her husband had on couch conversations. If I ever find the right Godly man I want that man to have Lashanna husband Gene caring, and sharing, and support system like she has. I'm single now and I know what I am looking for a man in a man, if I can't find a man that doesn't have self- respect for himself and respect and love for me and doesn't show kindness, and support then I will not get married.
Men should not be waiting till their wife is at their breaking point to change diapers or help the with the kids. Not healthy.
May be he works outside the home, so by the time he comes back, he does the house chores too. They have very young children remember. 3 under 3
But we don’t know the dynamics of their relationship. Can’t he judgemental… we just don’t know only they know the nuances
Beautiful 🙏
I love this conversation
My husband and I have been married for 24 years. Our sex life has gotten better the longer we are together. One of our kids asked us about 17 years ago or longer if we still had sex. If they only knew! We do a lot! it just gets better. It wasn't easy communicating what my needs were vs his. But once you open up to your mate! Trust me the intimacy and the sex is better!
Here! Here!
I totally agree, my husband and I will be celebrating our 25 Anniversary in September
Totally agree!!
Ugh

How they been friends for 30 years but they look 27? 🤔😍
🥰🥰🥰
They met before they were born

They are 45 and 42. So basically it's possible
Thank you Black Love for choosing #TeamBrown to host Couch Conversations. Their willingness to share their truths and be vulnerable creates an environment that makes it easy for their guest to share their truths and resonate for those of us watching. I have so thoroughly enjoyed watching their journey and seeing their ministry/mission expand. I really have enjoyed watching Chance transition from not wanting to be on camera to now being center stage and representing black men who love black women. Keep up the amazing work. You both are changing lives.
I love how, although Diamond is speaking for both her and Greg, she consistently looks to him for that confirmation that they are still on the same page. Speaks volumes about their values ♥️
Nelly, thank you for that! Our marriage is a ministry and I want our oneness to be apparent to all. Thank you for noticing and praising. Bless you💜!
@@tabithabrown3449 first time tuning in:)
@@diamondmarquise absolutely, may God continue His good works through you two 🤍
I am sitting here cheesing SO hard. The entire episode, just beautiful. I did cry when the husband mentioned his inability to be empathetic. I love that he notices the difference, then Chance added how he chose to refrain from mentioning his mother-in-law. Both men are intentional in how they factor in their wife's experience, and I just cried at their consideration. 💜💜
The honesty. I love this & my favourite thing about Tabitha & Chance is how they're so willing to admit to their past mistakes.
Also love the dynamic between all the couples.
Amen...I am loving all of this.
I HAVE PCOS LIKE HER. ME AND MY HUSBAND WAS PLANNING OUR WEDDING I GOT PREGNANT OUT OF NO WERE.FOUND OUT 3 WEEKS AFTER I ALREADY GOT MY DRESS. SO I WAS 8 MONTHS GOING DOWN THE AISLE. NEXT MONTH OUR DAUGHTER WAS BORN.IS MY HUSBAND TWIN. SO GOD HAS THE LAST SAY...
I’m a 30 year old single black woman. Watching things like this makes me so hopeful for true black love and a fulfilling marriage/ partnership under God. 🤗
I pray God find you the right mate. Blessings upon blessings...
Yes, please...Keep filling your cup with love, gentleness, kindness, patience, and peace, once the cup is full, girl you will find a heart, mind, and spirit to pour your abundance on.
Yes. I agree.. very hopeful for my sisters
Keep your options open. You're already in your 30s and still single. Don't ever put all of your eggs in the same basket.
@@dionnbrooks4045 thank you so much
🙏🏾👌🏽 This channel is a big yes in our communities!
I agree 1000%!!!
Need more channels like this. Versus the bullshit out there.
@@blacketernal7139 The bullshit out there is destroying our community so bad, it's hard to watch. 😮💨... And endure lol!
@@FJAK2049
Bruh forreal.
Imagine trying to raise a daughter with all the misinformation out there. Culture is going down the drain and sitting in the gutter
@@FJAK2049 For real bruh. I don't watch those BS on TLC, OWN. They portray us as fighters, cheaters etc. I wonder why this wont make it to OWN.
Marriage can be a difficult task but if you put God in the midst of it, God can always make the crooked places straight. Bring everything that is affecting your marriage before him. Try not to talk to others about what is going on in your marriage but bring God into and he will come through for you, believe. Going through it now but God is working it out on my behalf. Thank you God for always being there for me. ❤
Loved watching. Every couple was so vulnerable and open which helps steer genuine and loving conversations. Great job Tab & Chance, Greg & Diamond and Lashanna & Gene💕💕💕💕
Honey I am loving Couch Conversation w/ Tab and Chance! Such a beautiful dynamic added to the Black Love platform 🖤🖤🖤
My take always: Feel each other, give space when needed, communicate, honesty, transparency, enjoy intimacy, as well as actual act sex. Great marital topics, vulnerability, and encouraging from the hosts and couples. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I love this channel and this series so much! Being an introverted single Christian Indian woman still waiting on my "lobster", recently broke away from a relationship filled with red flags... every time I watch these couch conversations I send another prayer up to God for my person to show up. God bless you guys and keep these coming, such blessing!!!
Friends reference?
@@alanaterrel9914 Didn't get you there...?
I'm here. Black male. Also asking God to send my own person.
These conversations are needed on sooo many levels !!!! I can really appreciate real grown-folk conversations about intimate relationships. I’m lovin, listenin, & takin notes! I’ve been married 22 years and Lord knows I’ve made mistakes and continue to make em. There is no blueprint to dating, marriage, & parenthood. I appreciate each perspective and the transparency. Blessings to all the couples as they continue their marital journeys, both on the show & those reading this post 🙏🏾. Blessings especially to Tab & Chance because they are always project love, positive vibes, transparency, support, honesty, compassion, and blessings. I appreciate the creators of this content they are special & truly a blessing to the lives of couples experiencing black love & the challenges of dating, marriage, parenthood & the exterior obstacles that are intertwined within our lives. ✌🏽
I love this show. Tab and Chance you both do a great job of engaging the couples the thoughtful conversations. I enjoy see the positive loving representation.
This is so vital! Please keep making these and tab n chance are the best and chance testimony about not being able to be there for her is so heart felt. Makes me teary just thinking about it. It's so prominent to tell the story the outside doesn't see. It makes them so human an then relatable then I get the opportunity to say I can do that too. I can work with a man. He doesn't have to come without a flaw. This is so valuable
I LOVE THIS SERIES!!!! These conversations are God sent!
I really enjoy watching these mini episodes, despite being single and not able to relate. But I enjoy learning and pray that one day I will be able to apply some of this wisdom in my future dating relationships (building platonic intimacy) and marriage (using and growing that intimacy to enhance our sex life), Lord willing of course!
Hey sis, you’re on the right path-gleam/absorb wisdom on marriage where you can, now: in other words, stack your toolkit cuz your time is coming soon. I did the same in my single years-ear hustlin & sitting in the back of marriage classes cuz I was a HUGE skeptic on marriage but God worked all that skepticism & curiosity out for my good & His glory. I’ve been married 10yrs now and looking forward to 10x10 more ;)
Yes this literally my class room to gain knowledge and insight on tools to us and build upon for marriage. My mother divorced my father when I was 2 and my maternal grandmother had been divorced 2 and my paternal grandparents were married but I never saw them kiss or hug I only saw my grandma make sure the house was clean and have 3 meals a day prepared for him and that he took care of the bills. I want to be the one in my family to have the first successful marriage to say we have been married 30+ years
keep doing you and it will come to you, I tell every woman I know, dont look for it , the right man will find you, I have been married 24 years

Q
I absolutely love this. The conversation about the death of young lady's mother. Chance (Tabitha's husband) was so transparent and truthful and her husband was so supportive. And the other couple about the intimacy during the time of trying to conceive and the difficulties that came along. This is real talk this is conversation needed to be said this is life. I love to hear and see our community speak with love compassion and continually to be realistic and their thoughts with life challenges and still have love and expressed without profanity or any negativity. Because we are smooth loving people if we allow ourselves we were created out of love and Excellency ❤️
This series just keeps getting better and better! I thought the first episode with Tab and Chance as hosts was great, this one was awesome! I love black love!
I really felt it when she mentioned the grief, been through it. Not easy!
I felt that too! Tears rolled down my face. The grief of losing a mother is so tough! 💔
I love that they are incorporating everyday couples
So do I. The fact that everyone is everyday people (including Tab & Chance they give us that vibe) and having the same problems as we all do and watching them putting in the work on themselves and their relationships is so rewarding to watch. This shows everyone that relationships take work and it’s worth it. ♥️♥️♥️♥️🌹🌹🌹🌹
I LOVE when the first young lady said "This is my boy!" That friendship is so important.
Great panel and topic. Love the transparency and vulnerability of everyone. Did not want this to end. Marriage is a good thing mannnn. Cant wait to have that blessing.
"I'm 45 and he is 42"
Where,how?!
Black really don't crack,l♥️
Love the open transparency & all of the open dialogue, such a greatly needed discussion!
That is why I will wait to fall in love, 15 years celibate, I can't intimacy is paramount and I will continue the wait!
I cannot live without intimacy...I LOVED the Tent on the Balcony and listening to music. This segment was refreshing!!!! #BlackLove
@@tabithabrown3449 I have been a fan for 18 mos. I LOVE ALL THAT YOU DO!!!! I am going to MEET YOU!!!!!!
So W O N D E R F U L to witness supportive men who are growing in the realness of love, intimacy & sex within Marriage
I’m loving these marriage conversations. Ima newlywed and I wish married couples talked to us.
I don't know you but I'd suggest being equally yoked; that's in all areas; goals, integrity, conversation, finances(you don't have2 make more or less individually but the goals of your $$) & believe in GOD or a power greater than yourselves 2 guide y'all, & depend on in your journey of life together! Seek individual/couples counseling for growth & healing from past experiences💜take care!
I love that this type of love exists! Loved watching 🙏🏽❤️
45 and 42????? HOW???
This segment was beautiful and informative. This conversation I am sure helped a lot of couples..
I thank each couple for sharing.💯❤
I love Tab and Chance!!! Please keep doing what you all are doing!!! Much Love!
Great episode! I would love to have heard more about their infertility journey and PCOS. Maybe you can have a future episode on fertility.
Honey! Early bedtimes save marriages!!!! Get them little ones to bed and have some adult time!
Chance speaks with thoughtfulness and intentionality...wisdom.
My father told me as a young lady to give my husband that transition time when he comes in. I'm glad that Gene touched on that! Men need time to transition their energy so give them the space to do that
i see tabitha brown. and i CLICK.
I so appreciate this conversation and all of the couples sharing!!! I especially appreciate Chance's vulnerability...
3 different takes on the topic but all just as wholesome. We live, love and we learn. Appreciate the content.
Loved this discussion, this was just beautiful to see the way each couple expressed their love to each other.
@@tabithabrown3449 Keep the good conversations going, you're great as a host.
@@tabithabrown3449 Yes feel free to include me. ❤ God bless you & yours.
Love this .... And I pray that they all continue to have a blessed filled, healthy , loving marriage 🙏🏾
Domestic work SHOULD BE DONE by BOTH Parties. A woman should not have BE AT HER WITS END for her spouse to step in and PARTICIPATE in taking care of their children at home.(Whether he works or if she stays full-time)
I respectfully disagree, if I got to stay home with my kids, my home was clean and dinner ready...now of course there were exceptions, maybe I was out with kids all day, then it was take out or sandwiches. My husband always did the outside work on weekends. I let him relax when he got home from his stressful job. I loved being home with little ones.
I'm so relieved Chance described these two lovely couples as unicorns. I feel sad that I've never met any man happy to wait beyond date no.3 😥
Huh? Dang, my hubby is the only man I’ve been with. Been with him for 20 yrs. God bless you on your journey.
Expand your options
The full openness and transparency of the couples was awesome! I also LOVED the fact that more couples who are waiting until marriage are being brought into these conversations and aren't afraid to be the "unicorn". The wait is real and most importantly its worth it! Everyone's journey isn't the same and that's the beauty of relationships.
Gm Tabitha. Luv u. Stay in perfect peace my sister. Your show us really good. I luv it. God bless you and your family. ❤
Omg! I love this my husband and I are 25 years in. I love black love! As a therapist I support marriage daily and this is an amazing platform!
This was amazing I learned a lot blessings to all the inspiring married couples 🙏🏾
I'm not married but I love #TabitaBrown & #ChanceBrown so I'll tune in anytime I see them. I enjoyed hearing Chance speak out on how he's leveled up in intimacy. #BlackLove #CouchConvo #CoCo 💜#TabitaBrown🥑#TeamChanceBasketball 🏀
I love how LaShanna speaks on how she loves that he doesn’t assume. I’m recently understanding that it’s a pro & not a con. It was frustrating at first to constantly be asked because I felt like I proactively knew my households needs & felt like he should as well. But he doesn’t and is trying to make sure he has everything I need or want done. What a blessing 🤎 loved this video !
I just love this discussion. Great couples. Blessings to all!
I absolutely loved this! Tab and chance are perfect for this. I am celibate and appreciated that both couples waited until marriage to be intimate
I love that idea....wait a year to have sex and keep the intimacy and build a friendship. Yes to me time a must
Hi Mrs. Tabitha and Mr. Chance, congratulations on your new channel 👏🏼👏🏼. You guys are such an beautiful couple; spiritually and physically. Peace and blessing #blacklovestrong
Splendid conversation. They allowed for vulnerability, yet the support, love and soul ties were evident. The couples also seemed to understand their partner's unique love language as well....good job.
It's AWESOME seeing us in good, supportive, positive relationships 👏🏽
Lawdddd, this is soo good! Why do I feel so emotional?
Thank you, Black Love
I Love Everything Tab & Chance are in involved in…I pray for the Blessing of children in God’s Timing for Gene & LaShanna 🙏🏾
Me t🙇♀️🙏!!!
Why do you love about the wife, why can't it be the way she smiles, she walks, how she looks at me, when she calls my man....why does it have to be about somethimg their perform rather than who they are
That's black live for ya
*love
Listening MAKES me... MOTIVATES me to do the work on Me so that I will attract the intimacy that I long for/REQUIRE!
THANK YOU ALL 💚💚💚💚
I love this from start to finish this is amazing 👏👏❤ I know one day God is going to bless me with a wonderful husband 🙏🙏
I was inspired by these couples testimonies. It almost seemed like they were ashamed to share that they waited to have sex before marriage. But that is Beautiful and nothing to be ashamed about but proud of. I admire both these couples stories. Very inspiring. Thanks for being transparent in such a world seeking to be popular and not original and that true Love exist.
42 and retired. Shout out to the Browns!!! I love them, their commitment to each other and each other's dreams/goals.
Praise God. Married people talking marriage instead of gay and toxic men. You go Tabitha… love this!!!
Beautiful episode. Beautiful couples. Beautiful stories. The way Tab flows with her questions is beautiful. Chance admitting and identifying where he could have done better was beautiful and freeing, way to go!!
Tab and Chance...you guys are doing it! Sharing your lives has confirmed your purpose...being yourselves is enough! Your vulnerability and self awareness is powerful. Thank you so much!
I’m 33 years old and I’ve been married with my wife for 8 1/2 years been together for 10 years. We met at 22 and I didn’t have my stuff together. I was broken and in a dark space in my life. My wife saw more in me then I did in myself. Our marriage has been a roller coaster ride but we are still here 2 beautiful kids later. We’ve grown immensely because of God and our commitment to see it through. This segment was life! Respect the full transparency from all of you. God Bless 🙏🏽
Tabitha just be shining, and I love it! Very good Tabitha, very good.
Loool auntie tab said “like it a whole lot” 😂😂😂 I love them
My soul needed this. I can’t stop commenting lolol. Dope channel with beautiful black couples.
Better than most garbage out there.
This was Amazing, The Transparency The Tenderness given by The husbands During Grieving and the fact that Brother Chance Shared vulnerable information around the loss of His Mother. I almost cried, it was such good feels and eye opening. I would say that I am a very intimate person, affectionate and attentive, Oh Jesus!! This was Beautiful!! Thank you for This Episode, God Bless!! #CheersToIntimacy🖤💖🖤 #BlackLoveForTheWin #GodIsGood
Beautiful! Especially the wrap up at the end when Shan was talking about the “domestic” anointing🙌🏾! My marriage partially failed because my spouse would not consistently support the domestic work that would have benefitted himself in more ways than one. So silly he lost one….
Me 2 as well; I became exhausted from the roller coasters & serial cycling!!
I ain't married, no prospects, nada. But oooohhhh how I love this series! 🥰
Men who are OK with recognizing and admitting what they believe are their failures.....just beautiful!
I love how all the couples look at one another for confirmation and with Listening ears and good communication. I am trying to work on my communication with my partner. We are 10 yrs apart (I’m older) and it seems like I’m growing faster than he is when it comes to topics like this. Thank you Tab and Chance and to all the couples for being transparent and open about your marriage ❤️❤️🤞🏽💯!!
Loved this, all the vulnerability and realness and lessons shared, thank you 💖🙏🏾
I appreciate Chance’s transparency….. This is so good 😊
This conversation was wonderful and transparent.
Lots of wisdom shared. With 42 years of marriage and prayer, I have learned to appreciate everything. Great interview!
42 years is a miracle rarely seen these days. God has blessed your union. I hope to be there.
Wow, that's a long long time... Wish you two grow stronger together ma'am
Its nice to hear someone talk so openly about PCOS & Fibroids and how thats affected marriage / sex/ intimacy
This conversation was so good and went into some perspectives I didn’t expect. The grief conversation was real. It can really make or break many relationships.
Love this series! God bless all couples. Thank you Tab and Chance. Forever grateful ❤.
For me when my mom died my husband showed up and that was really good. Even after 7 years he continues to let that intimacy grows and I really cherish that. When you have that safe space or haven to come home to that's awesome. I love this topic. Glad that persons can know the difference between both and that they can compliment each other.
OMG!!!! this did my soul exceedingly good!!! Such wonderful couples and the golden gems that was shared is pure LIFE!!! Thank you so much for doing these talks. It is much needed in our community.🌟
Enjoyed watching this episode with these couples that were able to present their vulnerability to the world. My takeaway is no matter what you may go through but because you love, honor and respect each other you gain a truly deeper connection to your partner.
Great show. It’s so good to see the diversity in marriages and the success in their stories. 💛💛💛
Thanks for introducing us to some more of Chance Brown. I appreciate how much you shared yourself in this episode.
@@tabithabrown3449 It's easy to be a fan of yours. I see your heart in everything you do. Continued BIG SUCCESS!! 'ppreciate you sis.
Love Tab and Chance in this forum. Go, y’all!
I really enjoy watching.these type of shows here.. very much needed.and very informative.. Beautiful couples thanks.for.sharing.💖🦋
Very deep conversations here. I'm for certain that Chance's mother-in-law would be proud of all he does and has done after her passing to support Tab. The word of God says that from the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks. Chance's public display of love and support for Tab and his love and respect for her mom's passing is a beautiful thing for me and anybody to witness. So, kudos to him for honoring his mother--in-law's life and legacy by sharing that story, his feelings, and providing for his family and loving on his wife. #RealLoveRightThere
I loved this episode! ❤ I can relate to almost everything that the couples touched on. I have been married for 30 yrs last July. I have a question for Tabitha. Chance expressed what he found to be intimacy but I wanted to know what your opinions are of intimacy. I heard your views on things that make your husband more attractive to you but what are intimate rituals (for lack of a better word) to you specifically? Thank you 😊
This was a beautiful and powerful episode. I deeply appreciated Chance admitting that he didn’t handle some aspects of the marriage right, but he grew.
Both couples were amazing and I loved listening to and learning from them both. Praying for continued success in all your marriages 🙏🏽
Three couples........
Unnecessary response. Tab and Chance interviewed two couples in this session. That’s what I was referring to.
