Remember that the right person will never get tired of you even in the worst times
No, they will! But they'll work through it, or walk away for a bit (i'm talking minutes to hours) and then come back.
People can love you and still need to get away from you for a bit. And there is nothing toxic about that — it's good, in fact. It helps remind everyone involved that everyone has boundaries, and everyone needs time to themselves.
It's okay. Calm down before you talk about something that made you angry while your loved one is sick. Be sure of what made you mad so you can discuss it together.
Love isn't a one-way street, and it's something that takes work. Part of that work is knowing when you need to step away.
Kids, I’ve been married for seventeen years (gods i’m old) and I love my husband as much now as I did then, if not more because we’ve grown together as people. But there are times where he drives me up a fucking wall and there are times when we both go to bed in a sullen huff at each other about something stupid because we have to get up in the morning or it’s just that genuinely sometimes you gotta sit with (or sleep with) a feeling before you can figure out how to talk about it.
Also while it sounds romantic to spend every moment with someone love only works if you can take time away from each other. Not even during fights just each having your own thing. But yeah the ability to walk away during a bad moment is important. Everyone has limits and pushing past those willy-nilly is how you do break a relationship.
If I was gonna give relationship advice it would be to figure out the difference between a fight you can’t leave to fix until morning and one you have to. Also never take anything said mid exhaustion (road tripping, while caring for a newborn or someone who’s sick, etc) personally without talking it out when you’re less tired.
