Am I the only one who loves a good love story? Well, I hope not, because that's what I'm dishing up on the podcast today...sort of. More like, I'm sharing some love stories gone wrong while I was dating in my 20s. Specifically, my seven most influential relationships before meeting my husband. SEVEN, SHANNON?! (Clutches pearls.) That wasn't even all of them. I cast a wide net, okay?? Each of these 7 dudes came with a significant lesson that led me to a deeper understanding of what love is...and what it isn't. Ultimately, I've pared down what I know to be true about romantic love. While I think (and hope!) I'll continue learning about love as my life unfolds, I wanted to share these 7 lessons with you as we enjoy the little miniseries on the podcast called Paring Down Relationships.
