I’ll never understand why people stay in a relationship that is clearly not working for years (I don’t mean abusive ones) Relationships take effort but they shouldn’t be as difficult as some are

i feel like they’re scared that that’s the best they’ll have it. like thinking even tho it isn’t great, starting over will be worse. i stayed hung up on a guy for years bc i was convinced no one would find me attractive. he gave me the most attention ive ever gotten. we don’t talk anymore, but ive still never been in a relationship, he was the closest ive gotten, so i sorta get it 😭

Exactly Especially when couples are having personality differences within the first 6 months I just want to yell BREAK UP IT WON’T WORK but then they stay together for another 2 years
