I usually don’t do this but in my DMs I typically get people asking me to check out their music and secondly asking me relationship advice (yah I know https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏽‍♂️" title="Man shrugging (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Man shrugging (medium skin tone)">)

From my 20 years of being married I can tell you this for sure:
Relationships are extremely complicated and a learning process. Think about it this way.

1. Dating is a compatibility test
2. Marriage is a stress test
3. After the honeymoon period is over it’s a compromise test.

Be willing to be tested from day 1 till the day you die
I try to help where I can and like I said I don’t like offering relationship advice publicly but there’s so much dumb shit out on twitter that you read from people that have zero clue.

Both of YOU need to part of the process long term or it won’t work.
From what I see vewing from outside in is we’re slowly losing the art of compromise, seduction, friendship, seduction, honour, and respect for the ‘relationship’. Ya’ll already have an escape plan if things don’t work out https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏽‍♂️" title="Man shrugging (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Man shrugging (medium skin tone)">

I personally don’t agree with that attitude.
You’re going to have issues, there’s going to be problems. Running away isn’t always the right answer. Tackle those issues together as a unit. When the team is strong, ya’ll can overcome anything.

Relationships are a true test of how good your team is! Loyalty is key!
How many stories you hear about Panjabi couples breaking up like days after the wedding reception? Unbelievable https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😳" title="Flushed face" aria-label="Emoji: Flushed face">

Failed the stress test like I mentioned
Look mayn shit ain’t all roses and happy times. In fact most days if you can get the day done and you’re content without drama you’re winning. When there is drama figure it out man. Don’t fucking bail on your partner because of some minor miss communication between ya’ll
Where I see the biggest issues is and I hate to say our parents. I love my parents and I’ll take a bullet for them. But parents don’t have a say on how I live my married life. Sure they can offer advice, but I get to choose whether I take it and apply it.
I hear it all the time ‘bro you’re whipped’ no different than being parent whipped https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤷🏽‍♂️" title="Man shrugging (medium skin tone)" aria-label="Emoji: Man shrugging (medium skin tone)">
Sorry for the rant but man I’ve personally witnessed way too many relationships being destroyed because of couples breaking up from my second tweet, point 3 on this thread. Lack of compromise with a dash of lack of loyalty to the relationship is a couple killer
