Because, in redditors eyes, no relationship is worth it unless it's perfect. They only have perfect relationships, right? Right???

For me, it's a simple thing: if you're in a relationship with someone who does/has something that you can't tolerate and they can't/won't change, the relationship can't survive. End it and spend time finding someone you're more compatible with.

I think a lot of threads that make it to the top are extreme and possibly exaggerated situations that OP should not be in for their own mental / physical health. I will agree though that there are often situations where people tend to put down the other person without understanding that they aren't around to defend themselves or tell their side of the story.
