🎙️ Are High Standards Keeping You Single, or Are People Just Settling for Less? | J&B Live Podcast 🔥

Welcome to another EPIC episode of J&B Live Podcast, where Broker J3 & Dr. B keep it REAL, RAW, and UNCUT on the most talked-about topics in modern relationships! Tonight, we’re diving into a debate that has everyone talking—are high standards keeping people single, or are too many folks just settling for less? 💭💔

🔥 Let’s Break It Down!

Dating in today’s world is more complicated than ever. Between social media expectations, long checklists, and unrealistic fantasies, are people setting healthy relationship standards or filtering out great partners over minor details?

🔹 What’s the difference between high standards and unrealistic expectations? 🤔

🔹 Are some people too picky, or are they just protecting their worth? 💡

🔹 Is social media warping our idea of love by making us expect perfection? 📱💔

🔹 Are some settling because they think they can’t do better, or do they truly understand love is about compromise? 🔄

🧐 Real-Life Scenarios – Would YOU Date This Person?

We’re keeping it REAL with a deep-dive scenario breakdown!

👩🏾‍💼 Maya vs. Eric – The Career Woman & The "Average" Man

✅ Maya is a 35-year-old successful businesswoman making six figures 💰, owning her own home, and living her best life.

✅ Eric is a 38-year-old middle school teacher, passionate about his job, making a modest salary, but an emotionally stable and kind man.

💭 Maya hesitates to commit—does Eric match her “level,” or is she too focused on financial status?

🔥 If Eric were the high-earner and Maya was the teacher, would society even question this relationship? 👀

This is the kind of real talk we’re bringing tonight!

📢 The Bigger Picture: Self-Reflection & Growth

Many people demand excellence in a partner, but do they bring the same energy to the table? 💡

✅ You want someone emotionally available, but are YOU emotionally available?

✅ You expect financial stability, but are YOU financially stable?

✅ You want a partner to look a certain way, but do YOU take care of yourself?

Before setting high standards, it’s essential to self-reflect. If you want a 10/10 partner, are you bringing the same value? Or are you looking for someone to complete what you lack? 🤯

🔥 Social Media vs. Reality – Are We Being Brainwashed?

It’s no secret that social media only shows the highlight reel. 💎 Couples post luxury vacations, fancy dates, and picture-perfect moments, but not the real struggles of building a relationship.

✅ Do we set unrealistic expectations because of what we see online?

✅ Is the “perfect partner” just an illusion?

✅ Are influencers making us believe we deserve more, even when we aren’t putting in the work ourselves?

It’s time to separate fantasy from reality! 🚨

🎤 Closing Thoughts – Are We Too Picky, or Just Protecting Our Standards?

At the end of the day, the question remains:

💭 Are high standards keeping people single?

💭 Or are people afraid of settling, even when they’ve found a great partner?

📢 Bonus Topics – Black History Month & DEI Boycott

Before we wrap up, we’re reflecting on Black History Month and the future of Black excellence. 🖤✊🏾 What will Black History Month look like 10 years from now? How can we ensure it’s more than just a “one-month conversation”?

🚨 MAJOR DEI BOYCOTT ALERT! 🚨
