You might say to me – there are other factors to consider, such as children, finance, and living situation. Yet that is precisely the complacency that we are avoiding. Ignore all the other factors and distracting minuscule reasons, those are just noise. Go back to the core: under no circumstances should a couple ever be together out of external obligations and superficial reasons. External noises are cause of such desperate arrangements. A couple should never be to together out of desperation or complacency.
Let it Sink in –
There is only one reason to justify a romantic union: a couple should always and only be to together out of desire.
With that said, the example of the older couple is one of obvious. Think carefully about the people you have encountered. Ever met the couple who allows jealousy to run ramped? How about the single mother who moved in after 2 months of knowing the man? Or the couple who broke up way too many times to still be considered in a healthy relationship?
All too often I hear couples utter – “we are just having ups and downs.” Why are there supposed to be pain and suffering? There are enough pains and challenges in life without the exacerbation of the person who is supposed to love you. Why should you endure the downs that can be avoided?

This is your life, there is no trial run – do not settle for less. You have the power to build healthy and fulfilling relationships that lead to long, rewarding lifes. Happiness is paramount, make your efforts
