Is there someone better out there for me?

Vanessa Marin addresses the fear that someone better exists out there. Instead of searching externally, she says to ask whether you're investing in your relationship: showing gratitude, being vulnerable, spending quality time. Water your lawn before looking over the fence.

Hey, guys, do you ever wonder if you're with the right person? If you're like most guys, at some point or another, you have probably caught yourself wondering, is the grass maybe greener elsewhere? Now, the truth is, it is probably not. Let's talk about it. There's zero shame in catching yourself wondering if maybe there's someone that wouldn't get on your case for staying up late playing video games, or maybe there's someone out there who'd want to have sex at the exact same moment you do. But here's the thing. This shouldn't actually be a question of whether there's a better person out there for you. The real question you should be asking yourself first is and am I putting enough effort into the relationship? Okay, bringing this back to the grass is always greener metaphor. Of course, the grass is always going to look greener everywhere else if you are not watering your own lawn, right? So are you consistently showing gratitude towards your partner and complimenting them? Are you being vulnerable with them? Are you helping your connection grow through spending quality time together? Look, the bottom line, your relationship can and should be everything you want it to be. But you gotta be willing to put in the work.
