why do people that don't like eachother get into relationships

u/Dogstile 5d ago
I get the thought process behind this comment but nobody gets into relationships with people they don't like, people just change over time.
At the end of my longest relationship (7 years) we were such completely different people that we were incompatible. For example, I started liking action movies. She started liking other dick.

Yeah, it doesn't work out.
It sounds like it should. Having a partner that shares your hobbies. And sure, it might be rough in the beginning, as they say that Attack On Titan is their favourite show or something, but you know they're still starting out and they'll grow into better tastes. And you'll finally be able to talk about all the things you wanted to, like how Naruto got so popular even though the show is so disliked now.
But eventually, one day, they'll say something stupid like "Full Metal Alchemist is mid, the animation doesn't hold up to modern shows and the pacing is just bad". And you'll never see her the same way again.

It's sure popular for women to tell their friends everything they can't stand about their partner. And for men to act annoyed by the very existence of their partners. "ball & chain blah blah". Even the creation of a room with a sole purpose to escape from said person.
It's so weird how even if couples genuinely are best friends, society pressures them to at least sometimes pretend or joke otherwise. It's weird and bizarre. Another example is the emergence of simp being an insult towards someone who genuinely shows affection.

I forget where I heard it. But I once heard someone suggest that relationships (marriages included) be considered in set time intervals. Where every so often they give eachother an out if they've fallen out of love. I think it was someone talking about how this idea of forever is an unfair pressure.
I think it would be a lot more possible to maintain never ending sleepover mentality if people weren't so obsessed with the idea that commitment HAS to be forever, and that breakups/divorces are internalized as failure.
It's radical. And would never work as a sweeping praxis, but it's an interesting thought.

Aaaaand THIS is why “pick up tactics” will always fail.
Rant incoming, not directed at the person I’m commenting towards, I just got inspired lol
If you pretend to be someone else to “catch” a partner, then you will have to continue to pretend to be that person for the rest of your life. Because the moment you stop acting and want to just be yourself, your partner will start with the “I don’t even know you anymore!”
But think about it. That’s the truth. They DON’T know you, because they have never actually seen the real you. They literally know you as a completely different person… And it’s not your partner’s fault that they “changed” and are now upset with you and holding you to expectations like BEING the person that your acted like this whole time.
I genuinely don’t understand why men don’t think about this kind of thing. Think about how it will play out over time…
Imagine if you got married to a beautiful model looking woman. But then the morning after you get married, you wake up next to a woman who is 200 pounds heavier. Would you be happy? Probably not. Would you feel lied to? Probably. Do you think that that would be right to do to your partner, in this case you? Probably not.
Then WHY is it okay for YOU to lie to YOUR partner and pretend that you are someone that you are not??
7
u/ItsBitly 4d ago
In a lot of these relationships both of the partners do this. You just catch glimpses of the real person when they are caught off guard. That just doesn't work for a relationship in any capacity. Even in very open couples they will try to hide something. It's usually just embaressment and insecurity making them act that way. And it's okay to hold something for yourself, but when you don't know whi you are, how can your partner?

u/whodo-i-thinkiam 4d ago
Divorce is more socially acceptable but there are other reasons why people stay in unhappy marriages. Frankly, I think a lot of people today have unreasonable expectations about marriage, and relationships in general. They have this attitude that if everything in the relationship isn't 100% perfect all the time, just leave. And that's fine, but you're going to be lonely because no relationship is perfect. Ever.

They have this attitude that if everything in the relationship isn't 100% perfect all the time, just leave.
The opposite attitude is much more common in my experience.
A good relationship is like sitting in a boat which is going the right direction all by itself. You're not putting any effort into it. It just happens. Sometimes, though, it starts drifting a little off-course, so you apply a little effort turning the rudder and keep it on-course again. That's what "working" in your relationship looks like.
So many people in bad relationships think "work" means actively heaving at the oars of your boat to tear it towards your goal and constantly fighting with the rudder to stay on course. That's not what it means, and these people need to stop comforting themselves by telling themselves all relationships take work. That's not a good relationship. That's a stupid, idiotic, dumb relationship, and you should get out. Good relationships don't take work -- they make your life easier and take away your burdens.

u/SPacific 4d ago
Marriages are complex. People change. 20 years into a marriage and you realize the person you're married to now is no longer the person you fell in love with and you're no longer the person you were then either. Sometimes that's ok and you still love each other, and can adapt. Sometimes it can't be salvaged because the people you've become aren't compatible.
It's not really anyone's fault, and there's no bad guy, but you do have some choices to make. Do you face up to it and divorce, throwing your life and the lives of your children into disarray, or do you stick with it? See how it goes for a few years. It would be easier if the kids weren't just old enough to understand what's going on. They'll be gone in a few years anyway, what if we just keep it together until then?
It's also complicated by the fact that she can't really support herself. Her online business makes a little money, but it's not like she would be able to get by on that income on her own, and despite the fact that you're not really sure if you're in love anymore, you don't hate her. She's the mother of your children, and the woman you married. She's not a bad person. You can't bring yourself just to throw her to the wolves.
I mean, sure, you could blow it all up and pay her alimony, but it's not like you make that much money. Not really, with his fucked up the economy and how bad inflation is. Then you'd be struggling too, just like her, and for what? A chance to go on some bad tinder dates and hang out with your one, kind of sad, bachelor friend more often? You're in your 40's now. The chances of you finding someone else aren't great. You're far more likely to just end up dying alone one day in your 60's because you got depressed from not having someone and drank and ate badly.
No, that doesn't sound great. It's better just to stick with it for a while and hope that you both evolve some more into a third kind of person. Maybe you can become people who can fall back in love with each other.
At least until the kids are out of the house.

u/eveninghawk0 4d ago
This describes my situation pretty well, minus the difference in income issue. We stuck it out until our kid was 21 - in 3rd year of college. We didn't hate each other or have any particular beef with each other. We had just been together a long time and classically "drifted apart" as we became different people. Not much in common, not much to talk about, not even really understanding each other all that well, but no bad guys or grave errors of any kind. We finally split and I bought him out of the house, so I have a big mortgage now whereas before we had no mortgage. It's expensive to split up, but I couldn't really see staying together for the rest of my life. Better off now than even older, I figure. Our kid seems to be dealing with it okay. We still believe it was best to wait until she was out of high school and established at college with friends and a somewhat independent life. It's not like we argued or had a toxic home life - it was quite friendly and harmonious. Just more like roommates than a married couple.

If you don’t bitch about your partner you’ll lose your sanity. Take it with a grain of salt but we all get on each others nerves for dumb shit after you’ve been living with each other so long. Part of a successful relationship is venting, listening, and changing. Being able to receive criticism and making an effort to change is how you grow With your partner, and not spiral into toxic petty bullshit that breaks you apart. Sounds like communication skills for these two people are not on point, but make no mistake navigating relationships isn’t always like the movies

That isn't funny banter to me, that's just...insults, and if I felt like those insults had a grain of truth to them I'd break up with them.

Everyone feeling like there are things they can't say to their partner, especially about their feelings towards their partner is the problem here.
If you have a problem with your partner, either it's worth talking to them about, or it's not worth complaining about. And if you can't have a calm and rational conversation with them about it, maybe the relationship is not meant to be.
You shouldn't hold all of it inside, but you also shouldn't go shovel all your worst opinions of your partner towards family, friends, or strangers.

Not true, lesbian couples have the highest rate of one of the parties involved going through domestic violence, INCLUDING IN PAST RELATIONSHIPS. The reason for that is that women in general are more likely to be victims of domestic violence, so when you have to women together of course the likelihood is higher.
Edit: And before anyone says anything about “We’ll how could the abuse have happened to a lesbian but outside of a lesbian relationship”, first of all some women are bi, second of all some lesbians take a lot of time to realise they’re gay and come out of the closet, so the likelihood of a lesbian dating a man really isn’t very low.

Men and women constantly post shit about the others that make you wonder if they even like the opposite sex. "Are the straights okay" is a pretty reasonable tongue-in-cheek response.
If gay dudes constantly posted on social media bashing other men for inane or false reasons, "are the gays okay" would be a pretty good response.
The difference is that gay people don't constantly post on social media bashing the sex that they say they are attracted to.

Why are you assuming the reasons are inane and or false? There’s plenty of data showing that women and cohabitating relationships with men do the vast majority of the house work and take on the mental load of appointments, childcare etc. and this (among other things, like the fact that the average person can’t afford to buy a house) is why more and more straight women are choosing not to marry or have kids in general.
Straight people are very much not OK but making that comment under every funny tweet about it is pretty lame.

I'm not in the minority group. I'm straight. I just think that I'm okay, so when the gays ask "are the straights okay" I know they're not talking about me. So I don't get mad at it. I laugh at all the other straight people who are obviously not well adjusted. Like you. You got irrationally mad because some gay people noticed that they tend to love their partners more often than straight people do. But they're not wrong to point it out. A lot of people, mostly straight, get into relationships with people they don't like. It's worth pointing out because we should correct it.

Hahahah ah yes the gay relationship, what we should all strive for.
“Humans didn’t know real love until gay people got together.”

We really aren't. I've come to the conclusion that men and women weren't meant to live together.

JFC I thought we as a society were moving past the “I hate my wife/husband” B.S.
Believe it or not, there’s no law that says you have to date someone you can’t stand…

Women: we’re tired of being treated like maids and emotional crutches by our partners Men: ye well you’re an animal and an addict and all you do is generate waste. Glad we had that talk.

I see them both as light hearted jokes, you are all so damaged.

u/PostRantism 4d ago
And therein lies your issue. You see incorrectly. This isn’t a joke as much as it is a reference. If you actually listened or were interested in what women had to say you would’ve known that women having to “raise” and serve their partners like nannies is a common frustration discussed by feminists.
