Ep. 605: Quiet-Quitting Your Marriage

from The Best Life Podcast · host Danny-J Johnson & Jill Coleman

We’ve heard of quiet-quitting when it comes to work, but what about quiet-quitting your relationship?—not really leaving, but not putting in any effort beyond the bare minimum either. We saw something recently that claimed many women over 40 are quiet-quitting their marriages. Nothing good comes out of apathy or resentment, and it seems to us that this is where the seeds of infidelity get sewn. We’d be the first to tell you that marriage isn’t always sunshine and roses, but the way we see it, if you’re unhappy you should try to do what you can to make it work, and if it ain’t working then don’t hold someone else captive to your unhappiness. Life is going to suck in any situation, so might as well make the most of it, rather than staying put in a situation you hate.Bullshit holiday sales [0:48]Facebook Marketplace addiction [5:02]Gamifying purchases [9:05]A gown but no place to wear it [10:46]Date number 3 [13:12]Quiet-quitting your marriage [17:17]The beginnings of infidelity [19:35]Married people on dating apps [21:28]How hormones affect our feelings [25:10]Choosing unhappiness over uncertainty [28:00]Choose your hard [31:21]Making the best of any situation [37:50]Subscribe to The Lighthouse Lettershttps://dannyjdotcom.substack.com/Don’t forget to leave us a review and subscribe so you never have to miss an episode!
