We treat "marry the person you love" like the oldest rule there is. It's about 200 years old.

In this episode I dig into where the idea of marrying for love actually came from, why building a lifelong commitment on a feeling, the most volatile thing we experience, makes modern love so unstable, and what might actually hold two people together when the feeling goes quiet. I share some of my own story too, the years I spent confusing love with a feeling that comes and goes.

It's one piece of my Modern Dating Is Broken masterclass. The full conversation is here: www.AdamRoa.com/modern-dating-is-broken
