Discover why "I don't want to be right—I just know I am" quietly poisons marriages through hidden biases and pride, and learn six psychological truths plus Proverbs' warnings to trade ego for empathy in gray-area fights. Perfect for couples stuck in perpetual conflicts craving fun, friendship, and growth.

Questions to Consider

  1. What if the dishwasher fight isn't about dishes at all, but your ego defending a story where you're the hero—what might you be missing?
  2. Why does admitting "you hurt me" feel like declaring "I'm a bad person," and how does sitting in that dissonance open the door to deeper connection?
  3. If 69% of marital conflicts are perpetual and unsolvable, how would managing them with teeter-totter grace transform your weekends from tug-of-war to laughter?
  4. When Proverbs says there's more hope for a fool than one wise in their own eyes, could your certainty in gray areas be closing the door to the very love you're fighting for?
