Episode 31: On meeting in your 30s vs your 20s. Is it *that* different?

Recently a listener wrote in with a question regarding meeting and forming a relationship in your 20s vs. your 30s. We tend to adopt the notion that meeting and developing a relationship in your 20s involves more "growing together," versus blending two more "complete" lives ( a product of your 30s).

In this episode I explore:

  • Why we attach to these types of generalizations

  • My own personal experience based on the relationships of my 20s and 30s

  • The level of growth that we didn't know existed and, subsequently, regardless of age, surfaces by way of *any* relationship

  • The element of choice within it all. Namely what two people have to choose, together.

  • Where I was in my 20s versus my 30s at the onset of new relationships
