Long-term Relationship
When in a long-term relationship there are highs and lows.
How do you know when to keep fighting through the lows?
@Nwill84
This is a great question!
For me, when it comes to addressing this (in past relationships), I've had to make sure that the relationship itself was a sustainable one.
But after that, yeah, every long-term relationship does have its low points. I know I've heard from people a lot older than our age group (who have been or were married for decades) say things to the effect of:
"Looking back, it was in our struggles during which we grew the most and had the most fun." Now, I'm not their age(s), and I certainly don't know if the latter in that statement would always be true for me, haha, but I feel like I can truly see the logic there, nonetheless.
That said, yeah, I think you just have to remember the commitment to the person and especially, why you made it in the first place. Just my two cents. Again, great question!

i would say the same thing and I think you have a good answer, well said.
Well said and I agree. However, sometimes the lows happen often and seem really low. That’s when it’s time to consider what may or may not be best for yourself. Sometimes it’s not the relationship.
