A couples’ counsellor meets with newly weds explained their approach to them:
I have at least one private meeting with each person where I ask this question, “What are you going to do the first time you begin to feel about someone else, the way you feel now about your significant other?”
Many of them get offended. Thinking that could never happen. But it’s a legitimate question…
Marriage is an unrelenting commitment to an imperfect person. That commitment means a willingness to sometimes be unhappy.
