The biggest marriage killer is is we stop seeing our partner, and we stop making them feel seen. Because I think we become blind to the things we see most often. You no, whoever discovered better, it wasn't a fish. You no? Like, I have a couch that I've had for, I think, probably twenty years. I couldn't tell you what color it is because I sit on it every day at some point. But I've just become blind to it because it's just there. It's the couch. It's always there. You know? If I got a new one, then I would probably be very mindful of it. But I think it's the same thing. In a long term relationship, there's a temptation to say, oh, I I found it. I found this person. We did the thing. We're wearing the rings. We connected to each other. We're good. Like, I don't have to worry about that anymore. I can worry about all the thousand other natural shocks the flesh is tier to. You know? And in fact, like, this this thing, this connection is so important that, you know, when you when you think about when you're dating someone, you feel interested and you feel interesting. And those are both equally intoxicating. Yeah. There was a time where all of us best, I just, I just wanna find someone. Mhmm. Like, I wanna find my someone. I wanna find someone who loves me and sees me and I'll love them and and they'll receive my love. And then you have it and you just kinda, okay, I got that no, and I'll move on to other things. I think when you are with the person who's supposed to be your deepest connection and you feel lonely Mhmm. And alone, that's a very unique brand of misery. So I think a lot of that comes from not feeling seen anymore. And I I think that's something that kills marriages in a real way.
