We've all heard about it, we've all thought about it. The infamous 'seven-year itch' is something that has been widely debated, and today we're here to question the validity of this concept. Is it really a ticking time bomb, a milestone that every relationship inevitably faces? Or is it just a societal construct, a myth that has been overhyped? Join us, Terrance and Sandy, as we take a deep dive into our own relationship, revisiting our seven-year mark and the trials and tribulations we faced.

Our discussion isn't confined to just married couples, we expand the horizon and challenge the belief that restlessness and dissatisfaction in a relationship need a timeline. We'll be chipping away at this theory, exploring factors that could lead to a potential split, from the mundane boredom to the unresolved issues that often sneak under the rug. We even throw around the idea of habits, questioning if love and companionship can be made and broken as easily as habits. 

Wrapping up our conversation, we share some key takeaways that could potentially be the antidote to the 'seven year itch'. We stress the importance of acknowledging the effort it takes to make a relationship work and how this acknowledgement can boost motivation and satisfaction. So, gear up for an insightful episode which promises to challenge thrown around clichés, bust myths, and provide fresh perspectives on maintaining healthy relationships. Get ready to question, rethink, and possibly debunk the 'seven-year itch'. See you on the other side!
