Sometimes we say "happy wife, happy life" when we're really just abandoning ourselves to avoid conflict.

But there's a difference between honoring your partner's happiness and erasing your own needs. One creates connection; the other creates resentment. A healthy marriage isn't about whose needs win—it's about building a life that genuinely honors both.

In this week's column, I help a reader who moved across the country for his wife without voicing what it would cost him. Now he's trapped between the life he left behind and the marriage he's trying to save.

And now he’s RESENTFUL + his wife won’t move back.

As I say in my column, this isn’t a question of geography as much as it’s a question of: What kind of marriage do we want to have when we each have differing needs?

“This is where I need to reiterate that my mother has always been almost entirely without self-reflection. She can’t ever look back at something and take stock of it. It has always been too painful for her to pause and wonder if perhaps she could have done things differently. Not being able to learn from past mistakes makes any kind of forward progress almost impossible.” - Molly Jong-Fast

Today is the last day of Su***de Prevention Month, and we want you to know that we carry hope for you every single day of the year. When we say that we hope you stay, we don’t just mean we hope for things to continue the same. What we hope is that there are days where staying doesn’t feel so daunting. We hope there are moments where you look back and are glad you stayed. We hope there is support given to help you through whatever you’re facing.

We are holding onto hope for you, and we’re really glad you’re here. 🧡
