Scenario

When marriage becomes purely functional due to overwhelming responsibilities

We both work full time and have three kids under ten and we have not had a conversation about anything other than logistics in months and I feel like we are business partners raising children together.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The weight of shared obligations can crush the tenderness that made the sharing possible in the first place.
