The Relationship Escalator

Ever heard of the relataionship escalator? In the simplest terms, it’s the expectation that a relationship take concrete steps from first date to moving in together, engagement, marriage, and finally making a family. If a relationship isn’t moving up to the next level, it’s a failure and should end. 

In this episode, Kaylee and Jen discuss wha the relationship escalator is, pontificate on why society is so intense about it, and then discuss why it often fails so many of us.
