Over the course of a long-term relationship, you will need to make many Big Choices as a couple. Serious, life-altering decisions such as, “Should we move across the country so I can take that job?” and “Should we get married?” and “Are we ready to have kids?” and “How should we tackle this unexpected financial crisis?”

These big choices are undeniably important; but when it comes to the overall health of your relationship, I would argue that the small choices we make day-to-day matter so much more.
These small choices add up. They come to define our connections and the lives we share. For that reason, it’s worth taking them seriously.
