You've reached the 

"I don't want to do this."

Page

 Believe it or not, you aren't the first. But hear us out.

Honestly, we understand the reluctance. 

Talking to your partner like this might be unfamiliar territory. It might seem weird or uncomfortable. But we can almost guarantee that something useful will come out of it. 

​

Here are some common reasons people don't want to try fortification

It feels too_____

'Touchy feel-y.' 'New age-y.' 'Woke.' 'Sappy.' Take your pick—it seems like something only hippies or people who go to Burning Man would do. 

​

But it doesn't have to be. This routine is what you make of it: we try to approach objectively, like engineers working on a problem together. 

​

We don't need this. 

It may not seem like it, but an estimated 67.5% of marriages fail due to poor communication—and who knows how many relationships?

​

There's probably some underlying tension between you and your partner. Or an opportunity to get more of what you love from them. Either way, it's worth investigating. 

I don't have time. 

'I would, but I have a _______' Intense job. Young child. Budding startup. Ailing relative. Sick cat.

​

We hear you. Modern life is a delicate balancing act. But if you're in a romantic relationship, it likely plays a significant role in your overall quality of life. It's worth rearranging the calendar for a fortification session every couple weeks.

Our proposal? 

Commit to trying three sessions in the next six weeks.

If you make a good-faith effort, either:

  • Something useful will come of it

  • You can say 'I told you so'

Either way, your partner will be grateful that you tried.
