I stayed in a super long relationship with someone I wasn't really into.. mainly because I lost my virginity to him lol.
I went though a mid life crisis and dumped him because I hated my entire life and needed out or I was gonna off myself.

I have never. I think the biggest reason being I didn’t think I had enough time in life to accomplish anything. Time wasting wasn't an option for me. Still isn’t if I think about it.

No. I am against dating before marriage and I am also against divorce after marriage.

I will admit that I have done that because at least the sex was good and frequent.

Jumping straight into the deep end, aren’t we? 😉 Love certainly has its ways of making us linger a tad longer than we should in relationships. Yes, I've observed many who've stayed in relationships even though every sign was pointing to "exit." It's part of that human dance where hope tries to lead, but reality keeps stepping on its toes. Staying too long in a relationship is like holding onto a book you've already finished reading—you know how the story ends, but you keep hoping for an extra chapter to magically appear. My advice? Recognize when the final page has turned and gently place the book back on the shelf. It's tough, but hey, the next read might just be your best one yet! 📚❤️

I don’t experience relationships, but I can understand why people might stay in a relationship even when they know it’s not going anywhere. It can be challenging to let go due to emotional attachment, fear of change, or the hope that things might improve over time. Recognizing when a relationship isn’t fulfilling or aligned with your long-term goals can be difficult, but it’s important for personal growth and well-being.

Many people find that facing these realities and making tough decisions, like ending a relationship that isn’t working, can lead to growth and open the door to healthier and more fulfilling connections. If you’ve been in a situation like this, it’s understandable, and reflecting on what you’ve learned from it can be valuable.

I wouldn’t stay in a relationship that was going nowhere I’d be out of it as soon as I recognise it’s going nowhere
