Have You Ever Willingly Stayed In A Bad Relationship?

Hmm? And if you had, why? I keep hearing excuses: well I'm afraid to be alone, maybe they'll change, they need me. WTF? I just don't understand it but, then again I'm kinda addicted to being happy

 

I was in an unhappy relationship for a long time. It was abusive.

It was the idea of him being happy with someone else that made me stay. I couldn't imagine me being happy with anyone else... even though I was so unhappy. I thought I was still in love. But love isn't enough.

 

Love is the word I always hear. Everytime. Love... a very crazy thing.

 

because i didnt want to throw her out on the street in the middle of the winter...

 

Its because it is a crazy emotion.

 

No, I haven't.
I expect a lot from the people I date. And I don't settle for less

 

i did once. Three years. I have no idea why I stayed. It wasn't abusive or anything (so sorry to hear that, hiro) - I just didn't love her very much.

 

My 1st vaguely serious BF... he was odd, but interesting i liked that sort of thing at the time. I liked it until his weirdness became abusive,and bordered violent...plus, I do believe he was cheating on me. -sigh- to be 14 and stupid ...at least I never went all the way with him. ---I was scared of him. Though I wouldn't have told anyone else that.

I just held on to some sick hope he would knock it off. or get bored of me on his own.

Instead I just lucked out and his family moved to hawaii... so knowin he was too fr away to hurt me,one day I grew a pair, and dumped his ass.
It was cowardly and stupid on my part.I'd like to think it would never happen to the person I am now,i did mention I was 14 ,right?

 

Isn't it weird... once you are out of a bad relationship you wonder what the hell you were thinking...

Funny, yet true story. Jerry420 taught me to love all over again. We dated less then a year after my crazy ex and I broke up.

 

:cheers2: cut from the same cloth. I will never compromise my happiness. Never.

 

:cheers2:

If I have to compromise A LOT, I don't feel like me anymore

 

Dude, real talk, this was the exact same reason my friend kept his girl! No lie, it was 2 years ago this February. You guys are better men than I.

 

this was the winter of '06-'07ish so about 2 years ago for me too

 

i tend to go back to guys i shouldn't go back to



it's happening right now actually...
i have always found it really hard to find a good decent guy... i don't think i've ever been with one...

 

yeah. cause he was hot.

 

Yep!
Why?
'Cuz the money is good!

 

Now that, is a great answer!

 

shallow...in its purest form...

 

Shallow works just fine when you’re not ready to commit

I have. Its sometimes just difficult to get out of the relationships.
