Zach Brittle is a couples therapist certified in the Gottman Method and Relational Life Therapy, so naturally I put him in a room with Bert and me. We talk about why Bert needs so much approval, the very different ways we show love, what I actually need more of from Bert, and whether our weird little marriage system is working. Zach also explains the behaviors that can predict divorce, the 5-to-1 rule for healthy relationships, and why you don’t have to wait until your marriage is in crisis to try couples therapy.
