Gary Vee: The Kind Of Love That Decides Your Whole Life

Engaged in 6 Months: Why Waiting Longer Won't Make You Sure

A woman who spent four and a half years convincing herself that doubt was just the price of love explains how she mistook a relationship that never fit for one worth fixing, why a pair of jeans became the way she finally understood what she'd been ignoring, and how she went from years of not knowing to being certain about someone else within six months. The doubt, she realized, was never the problem, what mattered was what she'd been doubting all along.

Married Magician Reveals The Lie About Modern Love

A professional magician of over two decades explains why he spent 15 years chasing the grand gestures he thought love was supposed to be, what a $40 bag of firewood in Vermont taught him about the difference between the honeymoon and the marriage, and the one thing he now believes actually holds a relationship together. Because real love, he's decided, has less to do with the fireworks or the airport reunion, and more to do with laughing at a stupid mouse video on the couch after the baby's finally down.

The One Question Every Couple Avoids Until It's Too Late

A woman who always put her relationship first and prided herself on meeting her partner in the middle explains why all that compromising slowly turned her into someone she didn't recognize, what a stack of movies she never wanted to watch had to do with it, and the one question she now asks before deciding a relationship is worth saving. What makes love sustainable, she's decided, has nothing to do with how much of yourself you're willing to give up.

The Difference Between Love that Looks Right and Feels Right

A lifelong romantic who built vision boards of red-carpet weddings and prayed for the Romeo-and-Juliet kind of love explains why the relationship that looked like "couple goals" from the outside felt like a campaign from the inside, what a teddy bear's baptism taught her about being loved without having to beg, and the lightness she felt three days after it all ended. What makes love real, she's decided, has nothing to do with how good you look on paper.

Married 21 Years: Don't Create a Safe Space

Timm Chiusano, who's been married 21 years, explains why the instinct to protect your relationship, building a safe little room around it and shutting the doors, might be the exact thing slowly killing it, what a cat that wandered through his Brooklyn house had to do with it, and the quiet moment his wife told him he was wrong that changed everything. What makes love last, he's decided, has nothing to do with how safe you keep it.
