Breaking the Rules: Redefining Gay Relationships and Monogamy

In this very personal episode of Deep, I reflect on my recent struggles with grief, recounting the significant losses of close family members over the past decade. I also discuss how grief has impacted his routine and mental health, and the importance of therapy and processing emotions. But most importantly, I dive deep into the complexities of gay relationships, sharing my experiences with monogamy, open relationships, and the evolution of relationships post-breakup. I answer questions from listeners and well as openly share my thoughts on maintaining individuality in relationships, the role of vulnerability, and tips for keeping the spark alive in long-distance relationships. Also, super fun-  for The DEEP End this week, I go all in on ‘Dad Bods’ - you’re gonna love that!!!00:00 Introduction and Welcome01:27 Life Updates and Personal Struggles03:53 Processing Grief and Therapy05:43 Fitness Journey and Self-Worth08:00 Tackling Gay Relationships15:32 Navigating Open Relationships21:19 Lessons from Past Relationships25:30 Q&A: Relationship Advice37:39 Embracing Dad Bods39:24 Closing RemarksFollow me at:@deepwithjay Write to us at: [email protected]
