My Man Would Not Leave Me if I Had an Affair, Entanglement, or STI. But Bankruptcy…?

The Interracial Couple

What is your dealbreaker?
After the recent episode of The Red Table Talks, where Jada and Will Smith opened up about the former’s ‘entanglement with August’, we decided to revisit a discussion we’d had earlier in our relationship about deal breakers. What would make one of us to call it quits?
Would it be an affair? An “entanglement”? HIV infection? Bankruptcy? Or one having to move abroad?
What does it mean when a certain thing is a deal breaker for one half of the couple, and a non-issue for the other?
ABOUT US

CERA graduated from UCLA with a degree in International Development and Entrepreneurship in 2018, after living in Los Angeles for eight years.

She grew up in rural Kenya and at the age of nine, she lost her childhood home to civil war. That forced her to move to a Nairobi ghetto, where she experienced a different kind of poverty.

This experience shaped her mission. She returned to Kenya to start Ecodunia, a social enterprise that makes a difference in the lives of the poor by creating work opportunities and educating girls from under-priviledged communities. Ecodunia is not only driven by profit, but with a mission to lift people out of generational poverty, while making beautiful, useful and sustainable products.

MATTHEW started his career as an accidental filmmaker. He wrote a “practice script,” hoping one day he could write one that he could sell or produce. That script became his first film, which went on to win awards on the film festival circuit and was distributed by FilmBuff.

Matthew then moved to Hollywood where he eventually made nine feature films, eight documentaries, and worked with actors Carrie-Anne Moss, Zac Efron, Edi Gathegi, Melora Hardin and many more. He worked with producers Kevin Costner, Bill Borden – Academy Award winner Francis Ford Coppola and Oscar-nominated director Mike Johnson. He has even shared the screen with Josh Brolin, Neil Patrick Harris, Kane Hodder, Naveen Andrews, and many more.

Last year, he released the documentary film, “Hardball: The Girls of Summer.” Currently, he lives between California and East Africa, writing and developing new projects, while consulting on film and TV projects.
