The Comparison Trap: Spouses Are a Package Deal

This episode explains how comparing your spouse to others harms marriage, using a true-story-based example of George and Jane to show that every spouse is a package deal — strengths come bundled with flaws. It highlights how curated glimpses of other couples mislead us and why desirable traits can be linked to unwanted behaviours and encourages embracing your spouse’s whole person to do marriage well.
