Fighting for love: why did it all fall apart?

Today, I am sitting and reflecting on my relationship. Well, previous relationship. I keep asking myself why couldn't it work? It had the possibility of something so amazing but every two weeks we are fighting?? About what?? I don't even know. I never knew what we were ever fighting about. But I anticipated the fights, when it felt too good for too long, I knew a fight was coming.

But why couldn't it have just worked. Because I believed I was doing everything right on my end but he would just find an issue over the most tiniest thing. Our three year relationship felt like bursts of moments together, not one continuous relationship because of this.

I wanted it to work so much but it just wouldn't. And I hate that.

But I guess love was never enough. If it was love.

do you feel like you were actually heard during those fights, or were you always trying to explain yourself and still ending up blamed?

oop, clocked my tea fr. I tried explaining myself so much and still. And I was always the one to blame. Never him. I was the wrong one, I was the cause, I am the problem. ALL THE DAMN TIME. The last one was literally because I dozed off during a movie and missed his call?

i thought i was doing everything right too, but i had to accept that if it keeps breaking every two weeks, it’s not something one person can fix.

i was in a relationship where every calm moment felt like a countdown to the next fight, like i couldn’t even relax when things were good. it really messes with your head after a while

I feel your pain the ups and downs are exhausting. we deserve them to give as much as we arebut they breadcrumbs are deceiving. sometimes I cant even face the days much as I wanted things to be OK I was willing to accept the lying and xheating.the initial break up hurts so bad but if you stay strong it does get better.i promise

love can be real but it's often overshadowed in daiy life by deep fears that cause annoyances and push behaviour. it wasnt about you not being perfect. its more that he probably has avoidant attachment and his mind would find justifications to push you away by minor stuff
