Is Monogamy Natural for Humans? Marriage Research Says Maybe

Lauren and I decided to postpone our wedding due to COVID-19. But while talking about the wedding, we started discussing monogamy and human evolution of it. In this podcast episode we discuss animals that mate for life and what that actually means for humans. We also talk about why humans may or may not be best suited for a lifetime together.  Everyone has heard of the 7 year itch, but is that a myth? This is a weird episode and none of this translates to your individual relationship. We are only speaking out of personal experience and based on what research suggests!
