Week Fourteen: When Marriage Feels Like Being Handcuffed to a Drunk Raccoon
Listen now
Description
This conversation took place in January when I, Queen Caro, returned from my MFA residency in Vermont. Over the course of an hour, Riley and I talked about: the idea of marriage being an active choice, whether you have to put yourself in dangerous situations (i.e. in a bar with Ryan Gosling at two in the morning) in order to make that choice, and whether it's possible for me to get in a drunken fistfight without Riley feeling obliged to step in. It's one of those little conversational gems where Riley and I actually disagree MORE as the hour goes on, likely because I was getting drunk as a skunk while we talked.

On the anniversary of our marriage, one year in, we zoom way out and ask each other some questions. How have we grown, together and individually? How can we be better in this next year, and the years to come after that? And of course, what have we learned about how to stay in love?

Riley and I have asked one another thousands of questions over the course of our relationship, but very few of them have been explicitly directed towards understanding one another’s sexuality. That changes in this conversation.
