- From expecting dinner at a certain time every day, gender roles, or even how you spend your money - we all have an idea of what we do and don't desire in a partnership. Couples Jia & Elijah and Tanai and Wesley let us know how marriage surprised them and what examples they grew up with that they had to unlearn to make their marriage a success.

Sometimes having expectations set you up for disappointment and it’s better to just have standards and boundaries.
Could listen to Kevin and Melissa all day. I love that they're hosting this season of Couch Conversations. Long may it continue!
Elijah & Jia are absolutely amazing! I could watch them all day!
Expectations: long, long honeymoon phase, male spiritual leadership, being taken care of financially, twin, continued dating, semi-carefree living...
Reality: fading honeymoon phase, female spiritual leadership, taking care of things financially, miscarriage, no dates, adulting...
I so needed this conversation!
I love to hear real conversations from real couples living in the real world with the rest of us. I am in a season where I am learning the importance of learning from others' experiences. I do not have to go through it to learn the life lesson.
Amen; K. Watson
I’m not black and I’m not in a relationship, but this video came up on my feed, I said I love the Fredericks, lemme watch this couch conversation 🎬🎬🎬🦋🦋🦋
I love that this is literally a show for everybody
Same here single 😢 😅 but I watch all their videos and love it. I’d like to think it’s helping me prepare for when I am in a relationship.
Jai looks phenomenal in this outfit!
Omg I think the Miranda's are the ones from TikTok they are HILARIOUS! Love this!
Love Kev and Melissa together, no matter the channel or episode, it’ll always be entertaining and impactful ❤️
I love all couples but Jia, you are amazing. You are so real. And yes without a firm foundation God everything falls to pieces
I love these conversations. Even eating Melissa’s show #theLoveHour my wife and I realized I relate to m Melissa and she relates to Kevin. My wife is the creative and I’m the structure person. Similarly from this conversation, my wife is already ready to talk about stuff and I’m the one who needs to process things.
I love Kevin n Melissa so much, they seem grounded n true❣️ n honestly resemble wat I have! This was a great convo, fun n educating! Thank u
We love these frank and open discussions. No lead in just conversations 👌
I enjoyed watching expectations vs reality. When your lover is your best friend. It’s a beautiful thing ❤️
Loving all of the couples on this episode especially the Mirandas 😊
I lived together in peace and love with 3 of my longterm partners. We shared duties for the mostpart, food, driving, music, love letters etc. Rational ups as well as downs but communicative and patient love through them.
Both these couples have elements of my previous relationships.
I love and prefer soft relationships with really good communication. I need a complete detoxifying overhaul. Rebuild some bridges. Get myself, and my One man Longterm Black Love.
P.E.A.C.E
This was chock full of awesome relationship gems! Great convo!
I see these videos pop up and I decided to finally watch thus is my second one, and I find these interesting, this one was really good. Thanks to the couples for sharing their stories. I especially enjoyed the couples stories where the lady ask for 3hall passes when after her previous boyfriend cheated on her.
My new fave show! I’m always keen for the next episode 🥰🤍
It’s good to hear the different struggles other couples are going through. Relationships are hard work but it’s worth it. 💜
I love that they play fight about I'm gon do this no I'm gon do it. I love it.
Jia is so beautiful!
I loveeee Jia 🤣🤣
Jia and her short king lol. Glad she's happy! 😁
😂me too. She is gorgeous
Dog and kids are not the same 😂
Love this show, always insightful and FUNNY! Thank ya'll.
I love these videos. So much information and insight into relationships and marriage.
I love the Miranda’s
"the grace to change" I can get with this if I get the same grace to miss the mark on a moving target. I often feel the expectation to know what my wife wants and likes is very difficult if it is constantly changing. So I would stress that if we as a partner are putting in the effort to hit the most recently communicated target needs to be shown similar appreciation as if we hit the mark that has moved without knowing. If not, as a partner I will stop trying. May not be a popular comment, but I believe it's a real one
This is a very real comment and as a wife I really appreciated your point of view.
@@NJoy621 Thank you for taking the time to write this.
I think that’s the thing about grace, right? It has to be mutual. And multi faceted. You’re talking about having your partner honor your efforts and not having cemented expectations about the outcome. I think that’s a fair aspect to consider.
Luv it! Great Conversation couples! 💪🏿🙏🏿🤗🤸🏿♀️💃🏾🎉
Going in the red 😮 love that
Great conversation from both couples ❤️👍🏾😊
This was great! thank you for showcasing black real love.
Love both couples ❤
I love every bit of this
I love these🥰🥰🥰
Thx, Melissa
Love the couples and kev and mel ofc
So we ain't talking about the blue hair clip 🤔...I not even focused 😂...pray for me yall 🙏
These couples are totally cute could there be a couch conversation with single people I know it's only for married couples but how about talking more about when they were single help us single folks find their person
Oh and what does BEST FRIENDS look like
How can I be friends with Jia!! I feel like we'd be besties. We can go on a double date. Lmk.
This was good ❤️
I just love these conversations and the couplles 👏👏👏👏 Thanks for sharings your ❤ and life 😘
Another great conversation...
Good episode
Just discovered ur show and I love it. These honest conversations are great. 🔥🔥🔥
That was a great video when's the NEXT ONE?!
I have enjoyed this conversation because I am dealing with this topic in my marriage with reality vs expectations I am finally finally been honest with myself and with others and identify what triggers me and bother me and what bother my partner and learn what causes stress and anxiety sincerely yours Mrs Amber Mccutchen
This was good!
Love it 👍🏾👍🏾
Love this❤
So GOOD
Just love you all❤🙏🏽
LOVE this
I’m 16min in the video and I’m ready to marry her right now. I’m just afraid of what’s next after!!
Take this ticket!
Their doing a lot of laughing and joking but handle with care .
He was mourning the loss of the HAIR really, you better get over physical aspects real quick The Body is ever changing!
EXACTLY... I felt cringe he even said that... Sounded like he was in love with her for her hair..... KRAZY!
❤️🙏🏾
💕👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Hmmm, I didn't get that at all and I remember them from their first interview
🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬🎬
Jia and homeboy not together nomore . He came out the closet and now their friends.
All representation is NOT good representation. This couple on the first episode now this one is giving HARD STRUGGLE no love.
He didn’t want her and told her that first episode. We found out this episode she was sleeping in a car dealing with him. This lady doesn’t understand her value or worth! She went through all of this and he seems like he honestly married her and still there because he feels a duty to her.
Huh? I didnt get that from the episode. Do explain.
Look at season 4 episode 1. It’s the first episode with kev and Melissa hosting. It will show you the back story
Are you talking about when they first were together? I think she said she had moved on at that time. Didn't she?
@@ellenadams3371they were teenagers.
