"Your Brutal Bestie" 😂 I love it. She's blunt but what she says is realistic and makes total sense.
- Marriage magnifies what you already are. Marriage won't make you happy. Happy people create happy marriage.
- Clear communication, conflict resolution, and emotional regulation are a skill skill set that successful marriage requires, but you are not born with - you will intentionally develop those skills.
- Your spouse is a partner that you build a shared life with, and you will encounter different versions of them as life goes on.
- Marriage is a lifelong commitment that you renew day after day, to choosing to do your part so that your marriage continues to work.
- Marriage is not just about love and passion. A friendship and finance are also an important part to it.
- Compatibility is more important than love. You two can love each other and can still be wrong for each other.
Good news: There's lots of things you can do to make marriage work. It's NOT destiny that you have no control over.
Bad news: You gotta work on yourself and work on marriage. It requires constant effort. It's NOT a paradise where everything is inherently perfect.
- All well explained in just 8 min!! 👏
And why aren't those super important things taught at school??
