EPISODE NOTES:

  • You will have more than one marriage throughout your one relationship.

  • As millennials, we want answers, facts, and information right now. It’s natural, then, that we would want to be sure that we’re with the right person - especially heading into a long-term commitment like marriage.

  • One of the foundational pieces of a long-term, lasting relationship is tolerating relational anchors and relationship anxiety.

  • We don’t own our partner. We don’t “have” them.

  • In today’s world, we look for a partnered structure where both partners are on the same playing field.

  • A committed relationships takes risk and a lot of uncertainty.

  • If we choose to believe that the person we say “I do” to today will be the same person in 5, 10 years, we are setting ourselves up for failure.

  • When we sign up for forever, we’re not agreeing to freeze ourselves in time.
