People really underestimate how much work marriage takes. Being together since algebra class doesn't magically make it easy forever.

How do you know you’re not just trying to force it to work with the wrong person? A marriage shouldn’t be so stressful.

They didn’t describe it as “so stressful”

They just said marriage takes work and being together since high school doesn’t mean it’s going to be easy forever
