I believe in love.
I’m just not so sure about marriage.
Those two things are not the same, and somewhere along the way many of us were taught they are.
Love is a feeling, a commitment, a way of showing up for someone. Marriage is also a legal and financial contract, with rules most of us never read before we signed.
You can honor one and still question the other. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re allowed to feel both at once, you are.
