On today's Marriage Monday, Nathan and Andrea unpack an issue that comes up regularly with couples that they mentor. Hobbies. Friends. Interests. Sure, they existed prior to the marriage, but now that we are married and have "become one" shouldn't we ditch those previous hobbies, friends, and interests and just invest in our life together? At the end of the day, it all boils down to balance, counting the cost, and thinking of your spouse first! Let's get into that!
