We’re Changing Faster Than Ever Before

For most of human history, there was little ambiguity about transitioning from one relationship stage to another. Religious and societal rituals made puberty, courting, marriage, pregnancy and death predictable.

These days, we are making up the rules in real-time. Modern love means our relationships are constantly developing and leave us expecting more from our romantic relationships.

To meet these romantic aspirations, we find that we must confront change constantly. We need to learn how to be open with our partners about what we think and feel and how to manage the differences.
