On Episode 2 of Two Things Can Be True, Cass and Lilys get real about the habits that drive each other crazy, the point when their relationship almost didn’t make it, learning how to argue without destroying the relationship, and why having the right people around you can sometimes help you see your partner differently.

They also get into what it means to truly support your partner through career changes, self-doubt and life — even when you’re not seeing eye to eye.

Then the conversation takes a turn: If one person is ready for marriage and the other keeps saying “not yet”… how long is too long to wait?

Can someone truly love you and still not be ready to marry you?

Two perspectives. One relationship. Two things can be true.
