Episode description

Have you ever wondered why you still haven’t found the right person to marry? Why your relationships end in inevitable incompatibility, and your partner’s inability to truly understand you? Do you often suffer FOMO that a better person is just round the corner, a swipe away?

You may know intuitively that there is no such thing as a Perfect 10. But, your prospecting and perfectionism may be killing your love life in ways you didn’t even realize.

This week on the pod, we’re examining why there is no such thing as a perfect partner – via philosopher Alain de Botton’s essay 'Why You Will Marry the Wrong Person'. I’m sharing some anecdotes from the early days of my own marriage (oh boy!) and I’m also giving you gents five realistic ways to create space for your future partner – in your head and in your home.
