In this powerful live Facebook episode, I open the door to a conversation that so many people quietly reflect on but rarely discuss out loud — *why don’t most people marry their first love?*

We often grow up with the fairytale idea that the first person we fall for will be the person we spend forever with. But real life often tells a different story. In this episode, I unpack the deep emotional, psychological, and sometimes spiritual reasons why so many people walk away from their first love, even if the connection was strong and the feelings were real.

We explore the lessons that first loves teach us — from innocence, excitement, and discovery to heartbreak, immaturity, and unrealistic expectations. I share stories, not just from my personal experiences, but also from conversations I’ve had with others who wrestled with the “what if” of their first love and why they ultimately didn’t choose to build a life with that person.

We talk about timing, emotional growth, the role of family influence, fear of settling, and how sometimes, the first love was meant to shape you — not to stay with you. Many people outgrow the person they once adored, realizing that who you are at 16, 18, or even 22 is not who you will be at 30 or 40.

This episode isn’t just about nostalgia — it’s about healing, understanding, and finding peace with the past. If you’ve ever wondered if you made the right decision or struggled with holding on to memories of a love that didn’t last, this conversation will give you clarity and freedom.

Some first loves are simply teachers on the journey to who you’re really meant to be with.

🎙️ *Tune in, reflect, and let’s talk about why most people don’t end up marrying their first love… and why that’s okay.*
