Episode notes
Purpose Over Surface Attraction
- Midlife relationships often face misalignment because attraction alone doesn't equal shared life purpose.
- Ask early: "What's the purpose of being in a relationship with each other?"

- Ninety percent of communication is nonverbal, so text-only bonds are fragile.
- Marshall Rosenberg's Nonviolent Communication offers a compassionate framework for stronger dialogue.

- Be direct but warm; say what you mean with grace instead of sarcasm or edge.
- Use kind clarity like "I've enjoyed getting to know you and I'm open to seeing where this could go."
