The best marriage advice might come from the people who stayed married, and from the ones who didn't. Check out the full episode: https://greatness.lnk.to/1991DM James Sexton, a divorce lawyer, told Lewis that everyone should spend an hour with someone like him before the wedding. As he puts it, in marriage, there's no way to know if you're doing well at it. Is a fight every week a lot? Nobody can say, because we post the best vacation photos and keep our real daily lives to ourselves. James borrows a line from his sister, a dentist: by the time your tooth hurts, it's too late. So talk candidly with couples who would still pick each other, and with people whose marriage broke down. You will want to look hard at your own stuff and say it out loud to the person you love.
