View submission: Are some people too jaded to love??
Simple question: Are you happy. If you are , stay. If not, decide whether it is worth further investment.
If you are happy, don't pick it apart. Don't borrow trouble. Don't make perfect the enemy of good. Idealism is fine. You want the best life you can have. But how good is that? Life is a risk, both on the up and down sides. Figure the odds and place your bet.
The joy of life, from this 70M's perspective, is looking back and seeing that, no matter how it turned out, you made your own choices and did things the way you wanted to.

I just want to clarify, it's not happiness thats important. I understand what you intend to say. If there is a lack of reason to leave, don't find new reasons to ruin a healthy relationship.
I only make the clarification, because sometimes people get confused and think it literally means feeling happy. So they are like "well when we're not screaming, I feel elated to be with them." Or something to that effect. Then people are trying to find "true happiness."
But it's just a semantics thing because some people take it too literally.
