In today's episode, Brian and Jamie listen to a young, 20-something woman, ask questions that many young women are asking..."Is there really such a thing as passionate, romantic, even "obsessive" love that can last a lifetime?" "If it does exist, can it truly last, forever?" The deep questions reflect the fears that are prevalent among many, born from models of marriages and relationships where the honeymoon phase faded quickly, and one or the other bailed, getting tired of their partner, or where people chose to stay, but ended up resenting each other, and constant bickering or bitterness became the norm in a loveless marriage.
Brian and Jamie dispell the myth that such "fairy-tale" love (with no ups and downs) truly exists, but also discuss the value in choosing to love, making the decision to stay, even during the natural hard times that inevitably come in every relationship. They talk about the incredible rewards of true love that is expressed in gratitude and forgiveness, loving even during tough times, which yields great gains through the pain.
It's not either/or - either it's amazing forever, or it ends up "sucking." They share how they are now in the most passionate, romantic, chemistry-filled season of their entire 36 years, and how it's always hard-fought, but totally worth it!
