Drawing Lines (for the Culture)

Where do you draw the line in your relationship? This week, we're looking at ultimatums, Kevin Samuels and when consulting the culture for dating advice goes wrong. 

 Ultimatums -- relationship suicide or a victimless crime? Either way, Nina isn't here for it, but Sasha reminisces for the good old days when she threw out ultimatums like rice at a wedding. We're just happy that you've grown, sis! 

And speaking of...is anybody watching "The Ultimatum" on Netflix? We are and you know there's no shortage of opinions. TL;DL? Reality TV is ruining dating for the culture. We're looking at you, Nick & Vanessa Lachey. 

And later in the show, we're discussing the late Kevin Samuels and his "contributions" to male dating expectations. Is it just us or are the algorithms promoting "relationship gurus" that aren't here for Black women?  They can keep that. 

For this week’s Bouquet Toss,  we want to know... Do you consider yourself high value? Are you looking for a high value counterpart? Do you think consulting outside sources is necessary to have a successful relationship?
