On Marriage

from Other Life Hosted by Justin Murphy

Marriage is crazy. You’re right to think, “I’m not sure. What if it doesn’t work out? I lose so many options, etc.” It’s an impossible-to-guarantee decision with huge downsides. But if you do it right, the upside arguably approaches infinity. People postpone marriage for the same reason they're becoming less religious: we've lost the capacity for faith. ➡️ I might build an arranged marriage agency: defaultefriend.typeform.com/to/BCsFKG16 ➡️ Submit a question for the podcast at otherlife.co/contact ✦ Big thanks to my patrons who help me keep the lights on!
