Are you in a relationship and wondering if you are compatible? Doug discusses what couples should know before they tie the knot. He identifies red flags couples ignore that could lead to a difficult marriage or even divorce. PLUS: The Friday Rant!
Listener questions and comments:
- Mark – If you’re going to marry someone and you’re a Catholic, you should marry another Catholic. You would think that other religions are similar, but they’re not, especially when it comes to contraception. It’s a big red flag. (17:59)
- Miriam – A friend is pregnant and she’s marrying the father of their baby. She has two other children from a previous relationship. How should they set up their finances? (21:01)
- Tom – I do marriage preparation. I’m blown away by the fact that the preparation programs are not even mentioned. (24:58)
- Michael – My wife and I are separated. I am a recovering sex addict and 10 months sober. I am struggling to communicate with my wife because she just walks away when we are not getting anywhere. What should I do? (33:28)
