Hey there, lovebirds! 🦜❤️

So, my husband, Carl and I did a podcast recently on marriage, personal growth and the art of acceptance. It was such a fun convo so I thought I would dive a little deeper. At one point we started talking about some annoying habits we have “accepted” about each other, and gosh was it funny! If you would like to hear some real talk on marriage I have linked the pod here (at the bottom of this post) for your enjoyment!

But, let’s talk about something that might just save your relationship from a serious amount of eye rolls….acceptance. Yep, the “A-word.” It’s not just about tolerating the quirks, weird habits, or the fact that your partner always leaves their dirty socks in the living room (no judgment, we’ve all been there). It’s about truly accepting your partner for who they are—quirks and all—and learning to love them despite or because of it.

ONE

Embrace the Weirdness

Every couple has that one thing that makes them… well, unique. Maybe your partner has an obsession with collecting rubber bands. Or maybe they eat cereal with a spoon and a fork (hey, you do you). The point is, these little quirks are like the seasoning of your relationship. At first, you might think it’s weird. But over time, it becomes part of the charm.

Sure, their weird habit might drive you nuts when you’re in a rush, but have you ever tried to really appreciate it? Look at it like this: if they weren’t quirky, they’d just be… well, like everyone else. And let’s face it, a relationship with a person who’s a little too perfect can get boring fast. So, instead of rolling your eyes, try rolling with it. (You’ll be amazed at how often you find yourself saying, “Yeah, that’s just them”)
