People Who Think Their Partners Are a Perfect Fit Stay Happier—Even if They’re Wrong – Association for Psychological Science

Choosing the right person is so important in a marriage. I am perplexed by the many couples that come to me for premarital therapy and premarital counseling that feel lukewarm or have significant reservations about their partner and yet they still choose to get married. Years of research identify that those that are the happiest in their marriage are those that had idealized their partner early in the premarital process. It is healthy to be slightly deluded that your partner is more amazing than they actually are. Please read this article if you are planning to tie the knot. Our Florida Premarital Preparation Course will assist the two of you in insuring the two of you are right for each other. Good luck and best to you, Dr. Justin D’Arienzo, Psychologist and Relationship Expert.
