We Need To Talk with Dr. Darcy Sterling

You Will Pick The Wrong Partner — Here’s Why It Doesn’t Matter


Listen Later

Most people think they have a history of picking the wrong partner. They describe themselves as having a “bad picker.” The problem was in their choice of partner — not in how they co-managed the relationship.


Today, I’m making the argument that we all pick the wrong partner.

You will pick a partner who, over time, will almost certainly feel like the wrong partner, and it actually doesn’t matter. Your relationship can work anyway.


In this episode, you’ll learn why long-term commitments will, ironically, diminish some of the reasons why you wanted to commit in the first place, like:

Excitement about the relationship.

Dating. Like, you’ll go out less <- I hope you prove me wrong here.

Consideration — your partner will be less considerate over time, and you will too.


I rarely say this, but this episode’s a must listen.
