QUOTABLES:
“We have shifted our romantic partner to being everything for us. They don't need to be our best friend and work-out partner and all of these things. No one person can fill all of those roles. So we really need to be making sure that we are spreading all of that out and being intentional about building multiple different relationships in our lives.”
