Engagement Expectations, Challenges, and Friends in a Relationship - Boyfriend Answers - #105

The Sinead Says Podcast

My boyfriend Sam answers your questions: How does he handle the constant engagement pressure? What’s his take on setting boundaries? And most importantly, what have we learned about ourselves and each other since moving in together? Every couple faces these challenges but may not talk about them, from shared finances and routines to dealing with insecurities and balancing independence.
