In this episode of Karamo, the host mediates a heated discussion between a boyfriend (Speaker B) and his partner Aaliyah about sexual boundaries and trust. The boyfriend admits to going to strip clubs and claims Aaliyah’s porn watching violates his trust, while Aaliyah argues the double standard is unfair. Karamo repeatedly calls out the boyfriend’s attempts to deflect responsibility, highlights the broken trust, and challenges the notion of equal standards. The conversation escalates with accusations of lying, with Karamo emphasizing that the focus must remain on the boyfriend’s actions rather than shifting blame. Throughout, Karamo’s mediation style is direct, calling out red flags, demanding accountability, and urging both parties to respect agreed‑upon boundaries.
Chapters
Do you think you can be trusted?
Yeah.
Okay. What do you want Aaliyah to know?
The thing about it is like everybody like doesn't know. Like I do sound like the bad guy, but I've asked for wishes too. Just like Aaliyah asked me to stop going to the strip club, I asked her to stop watching.
Are you about to start deflecting? Hold on.
What do you mean?
Are you about to start deflecting? Sorry, I catch red flags really quickly. This is why you can't be in a relationship with me or don't, listen. Are you about to start telling me that we're here talking about you being at strip club, you not respecting her boundaries, you breaking the trust, and you about to tell me that you said, "Well, I asked her to do this and she didn't do this"?
Yeah.
That's called deflecting. The focus is on you.
I guess.
We're not gonna deflect.
Listen, I see what you're saying, but like, there's both sides. It's double standards, right?
Not when trust has been broken by you. There's not both sides of this story. The fact of the matter is that you broke trust. I'm gonna ask you one quick question. Has she broken your trust, point blank? Yeah. How has she broken your trust? Did she cheat on you?
She hasn't cheated on me, no.
So then how did she break your trust?
She broke my trust when it comes to watching porn. So that's what she does.
It's porn.
Listen, listen.
Okay, let me say something because hold on.
Let me get to finish on why you broke my trust, okay?
All right, go, go.
So I don't want her watching porn and like masturbating to other people every day. Like I don't want her doing that and I don't like it.
So as a man. So let me go back to what I was talking about deflecting. So you're okay with you going to a strip club and having the audacity to say to me, I want women who are thick, I want this, when you know you're going there to be sexually aroused, but you have a problem with a woman saying, I'm gonna be in the comfort of my home looking at a video?
No, no, no, no, listen, I'm not saying that's why I'm going to the strip club or that's—
I didn't say that's why you're going, but I'm saying you're trying to say that she can't do one thing when you're doing the exact opposite.
I worked on it though.
Let me say something. Going somewhere, taking the time out of your day to go throw money on these bitches when I'm at home doing what? Like, what, watching porn?
Like, porn is on video. Do you watch porn?
No.
You a liar.
He's lying.
You a liar. I'm not falling for that. You a liar. You a liar. I know you watch porn.
Listen, I don't watch porn. I don't.
Well, guess what? I'm gonna unlock your phone. I'll look for porn. We'll do that.
