And yet, I don't think we have put nearly enough thought into what that means now.
voice-verified
And truthfully, a lot of us are still operating from an older script when it comes to looking for a partner.
voice-verified
And if we don't re-evaluate what marrying well looks like to us, I'm not saying what your mum thinks or what your grandma thinks or whatever it might be.
voice-verified
If we don't reevaluate what marrying well looks like in that sense, then the likelihood is we are going to learn from the previous generations and choose someone based on what would be helpful 30 years ago, 60 years ago, which actually the world has changed so much in so many of these senses.
voice-verified
We need to be looking at some other things other than provision and for reasons we are going to come on to.
voice-verified
I also don't want to deny that there are still significant financial burdens to singlehood so whether that is council tax or paying a mortgage and logistical factors like earnings and career paths play a role in every single relationship but things have definitely changed and I want to talk about how to make a genuinely good decision about who to build a life with if you choose to build a life with a single partner and the things that I personally believe we need to learn about

So what I've done for this is I've written down six shifts that I think changed a lot for me when it came to finding a partner and we're going to talk through them.
voice-verified
I'd also like to very specifically shout out the TikTok I saw from Ellen Wynne on a similar topic to this.
voice-verified
The title was Uncomfortable Things I've Done to Marry Well, which really got me thinking about this and made me want to write down a lot of this around my own standards.
voice-verified
So I'm going to link that in the description of this episode because I feel like her tips, I agree with pretty much everything she said there.
voice-verified
So for this episode, I'm going to go into my version of six uncomfortable things I did to marry well in 2026.
voice-verified
And the reason I did it this way is because I feel like we can only talk from our own experiences when going through something like this.
voice-verified
I want to talk about the really important context in a lot of these points.
voice-verified
And I think that where we are in 2026 is one of the most important things to have these discussions based on.
