But once you get fed up…..you’re fed up and you have to walk away!!!! If she’s giving excuses and not taking ownership of the problems, being defensive and turning things around on you…why stress???

These women who stay, tell me they just wake up one day and find they are sucked into the situation. They need a hand to get out. Offer them that extra confidence as not every woman, ( or man) is strong enough to leave on their own.

Secret word is “both”. One of them can’t keep repeating the same punishment without discussing an unknown perceived offence. You can only be a doormat so many times before it’s time to shake the rug.

Word of advice from my point of view. When shit gets crazy, don’t let rage make the decisions. You regret them every time. I got mad and broke it off. Now I’m wallowing in my own pity. It’s stupid and I hate it. Being alone is difficult..

#exceptions to your bullshit:
1 – Abuse
2 – Coercion/Manipulation
3 – One-sided

Tell me again how everyone shouldn’t have standards again.
Know who you’re with – know when enough is enough.
If you can’t get along on the day to day, you ain’t ever going to be “great”.

Thats me too the tee cause i know what it means to put my all into something and whilling to do whatever it took to find a solution too it . but that wasn’t my ex turns out cause when we got too the 2 yr mark and we started hitting some tough stumbling blocks like every couple has an goes threw she told me her reasons witch i didn’t agree with and i said my two cents but in the end still respected them but in the end she threw the towel in

yeah maybe….but only if both parties are willing to fight and work it out and if the other party is the one creating the non ideal situation then it may be time to give up. Sometimes you have to give up if you’re the only one fighting for it.

Now days it’s so easy to walk away and call it quits… Divorce is too easy… Back in the day people fought for what’s right and for the ones they truly love! Divorce wasn’t even a thought in their minds especially when things got tough… Life isn’t supposed to be easy…

Life and love aren’t about finding yourself, because you’re already here. Life and love are about creating yourself, and sharing the person you grow into with others.

OK it’s simple…they must have came up with this with the ideal relationship…come on people…common sense…if there is abuse involved…obviously this post does not apply…simply accepting someones flaws and trying to make it work does not mean to keep allowing yourself to walked on like a door mat…I think we understand the true meaning of this post..

Forgiveness is the essential thing to make your relationship more crucial..
Hahaha but I don’t have a girl to do this.

Relations in todays time have to pass innumerable tests. I wish I was born at the time when two people were ready to do anything to keep the relationship going

Tell this to an abused woman while she’s laying in the hospital after her 18th beating in a year because she didn’t have dinner the right temperature. Should that woman continue to fight? I don’t think so.
I think the idea is to not give up over little things. But there are plenty of reasons to love yourself enough to save yourself from being lost.

Yeah its called give and take. Sacrifice. Being strong for the other when they are weak. Being considerate and putting ones self aside for Love of the other, or the whole.
Or when the same issue comes up again and again, and one can’t see it, you see it for them:
You bring it up and force it so you don’t let things go on with everyone looking like a fool or the other to keep going on and tripping both up.

this is perfect for my ex. i tried to make it work even tho things got rocky but she decided to give up. it was all about her and i became nothing.

I don’t wanna give up on this person but yet I feel like I’m drowning holding on to him. It no longer feels like a relationship more like a friendship. I want more. I want to be dated no just a hang out buddy. And I feel like I’m being used. Especially since we never do anything and he tells me oh you wanna vacation go alone. Who really lets the person they love go on a cruise alone???

sometimes it is about the SAME problem, year, after year,after year. you can’t keep going if there is NO solution.

Love this!!! Too many in this generation just give up when things get tough. You never look back & feel proud of yourself for giving up. Same applies to a relationship.

HONESTY is major component of a healthy and lasting relationship, if it is missing better give up bec. if your partner is not 100% honest it may lead to a lot of relationship problems, it doesn’t have to be perfect but it should be honest

But at the same time you can’t be the only one fighting for the relationship to work. At some point you’re going to become exhausted.

But great relationships are about compromise, sacrifice, understanding and being humble. But it must come from both sides to have a partner and lover and friend for life.

No one said stay in a abusive relationship…
It is referring to a healthy relationship which takes lots of work by both people….good relationship don’t just happen it takes lots of compromising, forgiving, understanding, good communication. You must be best friends before lovers, you must like each other, just as important as being in love. You must know the difference between lust & love….you have to be mature & wise….The list goes on

There is giving up and giving time..big difference. Sometimes a little time is the best choice. If you love them give them time. Your not giving up on them you are still praying and hoping that love will find a way to mend it all back together…but allowing time to do its magic. A few moments, a few days, or a few weeks give the heart time to really feel and understand what it needs. You don’t always have to heal together or work on it together maybe some internal work on your own heart, your own self worth, your… Read more »

You have to give up when the other person is not trust worthy. In a relationship you HAVE to have honesty. You can only forgive so many times before you realize they choose to lie and lie habitually
