Normalizing Relationship Doubts

It is normal to question whether you are with the right partner at various stages of a relationship, whether you’ve just begun dating or have been together for decades. Mel emphasizes that this common concern often arises from personal growth or changes in circumstances, such as transitioning to an empty nester phase.
