The Kind of Love TikTok Don’t Talk About
Send us a text
Everybody talks about aesthetics, 50/50, and matching pajamas. Jalen & Amber Jones are living something different. Their love is built on friendship, shared faith, and real grown choices that don’t always make the algorithm. They met as student athletes, built a bond before the butterflies, and discovered that liking each other is what keeps them steady when emotions spike or schedules get crazy.
In this episode, WE break down the stuff TikTok rarely shows: how tone, word choice, and small gestures repair conflict faster than perfect arguments. How independence becomes interdependence when you start naming expectations instead of guessing them. How a quick check in or a simple “Are you free if I grab dinner with a friend?” protects connection without killing freedom.
WE talk through the shift couples need to make when life gets real. Vows are cute on the wedding day, but they get tested early with job changes, health scares, and tight budgets. The Jones’s let their vows become verbs. They chose to show up, communicate clearly, set shared rhythms, and steward their home like a team that actually plans to win.
And yes, their faith shows up too, not as a vibe but as a lifestyle. They pray over plans, eat together on purpose, and treat leadership like service, not control. Their premarital coaching opened their eyes to blind spots about money, conflict repair, intimacy, and routines that scale with life.
This episode is for anyone who wants real love, not just relationship content. The takeaway is simple and doable: build a friendship that can take a hit, speak expectations out loud, pray over your plans, and let small acts of kindness carry big weight. That’s the kind of love TikTok doesn’t talk about, but everybody needs.
