Flipping the Script on Popular Marriage Advice

Today's episode is all about the popular marriage advice we get from all those who have gone before us. 

When I got married the first time, I remember sitting in a circle while we passed around index cards and ladies wrote their best advice on the cards. So many pieces of advice were fantastic. So many of them weren't. So we're going to dive into a few of those "common pieces of marriage advice".

1. "Never go to bed angry."

2. Marriage is 50/50

3. "Stay together for the children."

4. "Just pray about it."

5. "Passion fades over time."

6. Communicate

7. Offering hope as a strategy. “Don’t worry, it’ll get better.”

8. Just get divorced/you deserve better. 

9. What they don’t know won’t hurt ‘em.

10. If you disagree and argue a lot, you’re probably just not compatible anymore. 

Any of these sound familiar? If so, you've probably been given some bad advice. Find out how to flip that script or the mindset around that advice to make it applicable to your marriage.
