    I don’t think so. I think that people want to believe it, justify their unhappiness with their partner, but it mostly comes down to being able to learn, to make compromises and to hold yourself to the same standard (if not higher) than you hold your partner to. Nobody is perfect and people who say their partners are are really sugarcoating it. Being in a relationship can be really difficult and frustrating, but also very rewarding and humbling, because what’s better thank being with someone that you understand and he or she understands you? Someone that helps you better yourself? Sometimes it’s not even about that, it’s just about that calming presence. But none of that comes naturally, none if it just happens like that. It takes work and dedication.
