In this episode of the Morning X, Barnes, Leslie, and Jimmy welcome Rich Seldas, Brad Gerstmann, and Christopher Pizzo, authors of What Men Want and Marry Me. The discussion centers around the contentious topic of moving in before marriage. Rich and Brad, both now married, advocate for cohabitation as a crucial step toward marriage, debunking the "milk for free" adage and emphasizing it as a positive step for both partners to learn about each other's routines and adjust accordingly. Jimmy, however, argues that after a significant period of dating, couples likely know each other well enough without needing to live together first. The conversation delves into the adjustments and challenges faced by men when cohabitating, highlighting differing viewpoints on whether it truly prepares couples for marriage. Listener Tracy calls in to share her negative experience with pre-marital cohabitation, sparking further debate about its effectiveness. The show also touches on professional men’s focus on careers and its impact on relationships, as well as the controversial subject of sexual history disclosure. The segment wraps up with advice for a caller dealing with a stalled engagement due to religious differences. This is from the Best of The Morning X vault.
