This is the topic of my latest Substack post. Just because marriage lasts 20+ years doesn’t mean it’s happy. And before you @ me, let me just say this…..
Many people feel a strong societal pressure to present their marriage as successful. Admitting otherwise feels like a personal failure. Studies have shown that married couples adjust their expectations over time. “Happiness” is often downplayed to “stable” or “content” over time even if fulfillment is absent. Many times when people @ me when I make posts like this, they are using stability and a lack of conflict in place of true happiness.
I have over 25 years experience as a Love & Relationship astrologer and I’ve seen hundreds of synastry charts. You can tell me your marriage is happy all you want. The charts don’t lie.
