She, along with her fantastic guests, will give you the advice and wisdom you need to cultivate the perfect relationship.
The percentage of married Americans has dropped each decade since the 1950s, and the number of unmarried-but-cohabiting partners has risen 1,000 percent over the last 40 years. At 28 for men and 26 for women, the median age at which Americans are marrying is at its highest point ever – and it’s even higher among the urban and educated cohort. It turns out that waiting is a good idea: for every year marriage is put off, the chances of divorce go down. But will these 20 and 30 somethings ever get married and settle down?
On the November 8th Secrets of Dating and Relationship Success, Gloria talks with Amalia McGibbon, Lara Vogel & Claire Williams about how having too many choices impacts their generation’s desires and leads them to sidestep traditional time lines. At the heart of their theory is a term they coined – “choister” – that best describes what they call their bizarre little generation. They’ll discuss why and how dating and marriage has changed for this generation. You’ll learn what a Choister is and how a Choister’s marriage will look different than those of their parents. They’ll answer some of your email questions on worrying if you’ll ever find someone and settling for Mr. Good Enough.
