LORI’S QUOTEWORTHY TRUTH BOMBS:
"People think that there is so much opportunity for someone, quote unquote better that they really don't give anything a chance."
"And so that's more important than sort of who's making the money or where the money is coming from is given our goals, how are we as a team going to do this?"
"It's kind of like in the beginning of a relationship, it's like you put down cement, right? And at the beginning of a relationship, the cement is still wet. You can still talk about these things. You can still kind of mold how you want it to go, but it's kind of like if five years later you say the cement is dry and all of a sudden you say, you know what, I really want to do this financially."
"You are not going to be happy if this pattern continues and it looks like it will. So are you signing up for this pattern or given all the other qualities that you like about this person? I would say give up some of the other qualities and choose the reliable person."
"People don't understand. They think that dating is a good test for marriage. You know, I think a lot of dating is a lot of sort of fantasy as opposed to, let me really look, you know, they say, oh, it's very unromantic to talk about money and in laws and children and, you know, all these things. Well, no, it's very romantic because if you're going to spend your life with this person, you want to really know who they are and what they're thinking about in terms of what they want in life."
"Communication is not just like doing a dump of all of your feelings on the other person. That's not communicating."
"How are we working together so that we both feel seen, heard, understood."
"People tend to be happiest when there is equal power, or at least similar types of power."
"Women were expected to take care of everything at home in addition to now if they want to have a career. And then they're doing all of the emotional labor of sort of running the household."
