Re: Constant rowing in relationships Although I've enjoyed reading through the problems together with the numerous well-thought-out pieces of advice offered on the following page - [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) - which have undoubtedly helped many, I do remain dubious as to whether the girl who wrote in (whose question is now just over half way down the page) asking what to do re the stormy, dramatic relationship she had with her boyfriend must have nevertheless been in a relationship that had something going for it and may thus have been worth preserving on the grounds that it had lasted for over a year, since it seems likely to me from my experience of observing other such couples (even though it would be very difficult for me to make anything like a proper assessment on these particular two being that I've never met either of them) that their staying together despite all their problems could have been down to co-dependence and/or a fear of being alone rather than true love.
Perhaps they were both in the kind of relationship they thrived on and wanted deep down despite denials to the contrary (like does appear to have a tendency to attract like after all) - but as I said, this is little more than speculation on my part and is really just something I'm suggesting as a possible alternative reason as to why these two along with many similar couples might feel compelled to stick with each other.
