Also, over time I have noticed that couples who actually have to struggle to make ends meet have a better relationship than those who have bountiful relationships. Nothing groundbreaking here just my observation.
Because they're forced to dig deeper to connect and their bond reaches deeper than joining bank accounts or appearing at charity galas and social functions over the summer at the Hamptons.
Divorcing over granola? You have to have a pretty petty and weak relationship to divorce over granola.
"Its the small things." He's right, and he initially diagnosed the issues right: "cheating, etc. Is a symptom, not the cause" yet he didn't apply that to the granola/blowjob case.
Why is the relationship dependent on that yet also destroyed by it?
Guys working 80 hours a week giving their socialite wives $20k monthly allowances while little hedge fund Jr. Is at prep school in New Hampshire is a broken family arrangement.

I don’t think he meant they divorced because of the granola. If I remember correctly he asked her if there was a specific moment when she realized that the marriage was over and her response was the granola.

You weren’t paying attention. They didn’t divorce over granola. That was just the first sign that they were drifting apart. The point was that it’s a lot of little things.

They are not divorcing over granola or blowjobs.
The granola and blowjobs show that they are each wanting to make the other happy and are invested in their happiness and the relationship.
Letting the granola go empty and stopping the blow jobs is a symptom of them growing apart and not being as invested in the relationship and wanting to make the other person happy and cared for.

I thought he did it very well. He asked the woman when she thought the marriage went south and she responded when he stopped replenishing the granola and she in turn stopped giving him blowjobs. His interpretation was they both stopped doing the small things to please the other and the marriage went into a death spiral before they could catch it and if they had kept it up the marriage probably could have been saved. I thought it was a great interview.
