S03.E13 - Carlton Part 2: The unfortunate part of dating

In this episode (The unfortunate part of dating), I discuss the value of knowing your person's heart with Carlton as he shares more of his journey in marriage and in fatherhood. We talk about why guys are okay dating more than one person at the same time and the tradeoffs you make while dating multiple people. We discuss how harder it becomes to date as people get older and considerations for living with your partner prior to marriage. We examine the need for parity in a relationship and being mindful of the development opportunities of who you choose to hitch your wagon. We highlight the importance of communication in the middle of conflict and investing in your relationship once kids are in the picture. We also debate what matters more: trusting or respecting someone for their opinions or feedback.  Help support the podcast so it can continue to give you quality content.
