“Why am I so scared to commit?”
“How do I revive my commitment to my partner?”
This episode of Sex, Love & Elephants is the second in a series about the rumored demise of long-term love. I'll be sharing my own expertise on the subject as well as interviewing experts in the field about love, sex, and communication.
