Some relationships start off with great promise, but over time, people may realize that their partner is not the one they want to spend their life with. In a candid discussion on Reddit, individuals shared their stories of how they realized their once-perfect relationships had come to an end, with love stories dwindling over time and others crashing to an unexpected halt.
One person shared their moment of clarity, revealing: “When I felt a sense of dread when coming home to her, or when I was at home and she was coming home to me. Wondering what triviality she would be angry about this time.”
Echoing this sentiment, another chimed in: “Been there man. I used to wonder why the old guys at work just wanted to go to the pub every day after work. Then I got a decent job and a rubbish relationship.”
A third individual recounted the rollercoaster nature of their past romance: “We never had an okay day. We had amazing days and awful days. Never just a nice okay one. Think of always manic or always depressed, no breaks. It was tough but had to break off.”
