My romantic partner and I are both activists but we disagree about how much of our private life should align with our public values, and it's becoming a source of tension we don't know how to navigate. We're arguing about things like where we shop and what we post on social media because it feels like every choice is a statement about who we are together.
More people experience this than they realize.
Your private choices feel politicized because you have different ideas about how personal life should reflect public commitments.
