This episode goes over a modern take on relationships. We ‘Call Bullshit’ on marriage being the ultimate measure of relationship success. The ultimate “success” of a relationship is marriage. That’s the end goal. But if you think about the most secure, happiest, and successful relationships, are they necessarily married? Some of the worst relationships are also married individuals. In this episode, and from this viewpoint, Krissy and Marie discuss that the success of a relationship isn’t necessarily defined by a fixed duration, title, or set parameters; rather, it’s a continuous process of understanding, support, and shared experiences whether there is a legal or religious contract or not. When you shift your perspective, it allows you to see how other markets may be more indicative of a successful relationship. These partnerships may have shorter durations, but they embrace anniversary check ins rather than commercialized flowers, jewelry and dinners. All these things might help turn a relationship rental (dating), lease (engagement), or buy (marriage) into the most successful partnership yet.
