What If Your Marriage Isn't Meant to Make You Happy?
Here's an uncomfortable truth: you've been lied to about marriage. Every romantic comedy, every love song, every wedding toast has sold you the same fantasy-that marriage exists to complete you, to make you happy, to fulfill your deepest longings. But what if the frustrations in your relationship aren't failures at all? What if they're precisely the point? This radical reframing has saved countless marriages by shifting the question from "Am I happy?" to "Am I growing?" Marriage isn't a happiness factory. It's a refining fire, designed not to comfort us but to transform us into better versions of ourselves. For most of human history, marriage was practical-about survival, alliances, and raising children. Then came the Romantic poets of the nineteenth century, convincing us that marrying for anything but passionate love was a betrayal of the soul. Ironically, many of these poets lived chaotic, irresponsible lives that contradicted their lofty ideals. This romantic view is brittle. It shatters when reality hits-when passion fades, when your spouse's quirks become annoyances, when life gets hard. Most couples respond by either splitting up, waging silent warfare, or simply coexisting. But there's a fourth option: pursuing spiritual depth.
