In this episode of Couples Chronicles with Lloyd & Afiya, we’re diving into the complexities of influence, trust, and transparency in relationships. How much say should your partner really have in your decision-making? Where’s the line between support and control?

We also unpack the impact of the past—how much should it matter, and what happens when you uncover something unsettling after the fact? The recent Cassie and Alex situation gives us a lot to think about.

Plus, we’re asking the uncomfortable but necessary question: is it inappropriate for your friend to be in direct communication with your partner? Loyalty, boundaries, and respect—let’s talk about it.

Tune in for honest takes, real experiences, and advice to help you navigate your own love life with clarity and confidence.
