Episode 104: Romance, Dating, & Courting
One of my mentors, Robert Fritz, pointed out to us that ‘romance’ is really based on the unusual.

It’s the math of relationships that helps us out…realizing it’s an equation when two people agree or disagree allows us to respect one another’s freedom. Understanding this math is especially important for our kids, since they are in a world of constant decision about who they befriend and what they do together.
