And so I'm not really all that surprised
00:00:01
that young people equate marriage with
00:00:04
sex because for many of us that's the
00:00:07
message that we hear over and over and
00:00:09
over again. Sex is awesome and the only
00:00:12
way to have it is in marriage. So then
00:00:15
we can't be surprised when people rush
00:00:16
into marriage because well they need
00:00:19
sexual fulfillment, right? And once they
00:00:22
get in the rosecolored glasses pop off,
00:00:24
right? The hormone goggles disappear and
00:00:28
you start to question. You start to ask
00:00:29
questions. What have I gotten myself
00:00:31
into? Uh maybe their partner is actually
00:00:34
awful, right? And but because we had,
00:00:37
you know, those goggles on, I ignored
00:00:39
red flags along the way.
