Cornerstone vs Capstone Marriage
2 ways to view marriage (or serious relationships in general)
- Capstone marriage: Where marriage is seen as a kind of reward after you’ve accomplished a certain number of goals in your life, whether they are professional, personal, etc.
- Cornerstone marriage: It’s where your marriage is your starting point, something from which you build a life.
Both have challenges:
- In a capstone mentality your high standards and evolution as a person may make finding someone difficult.
- In cornerstone ones, the people in the relationship define themselves as part of a unit and less as a unique individual.
