Episode 2315: Colin Wright explores the challenges of being an independent individual in a world designed for pairs and families. He highlights the shift in relationship norms, especially among Millennials, who reject traditional life paths in favor of personal fulfillment and diverse, modern relationship models. This evolution, he argues, should be embraced as it allows for more authentic, custom-fitted lives. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://exilelifestyle.com/missed-connections/ Quotes to ponder: "There are no wrong steps in this dance, and even if we sometimes feel that we're in the middle of a competition there are plenty of other yardsticks by which we can measure our own, independent growth and progression." "It's not scary, it's wonderful. It will result in a greater number of happy people enjoying custom-fitted lives, rather than the majority of us trying to squeeze into something clearly sewn for someone else." "A complete individual has trouble dating anyone except other complete individuals, and this is not something we're encouraged to be." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
