We've all seen or experienced personally very stressful relationships when we all know relationships are supposed to be filled with happy times, maybe a few arguments here and there, and a bit of sadness every now and then but how many of you here are going through a very stressful relationship? I've been in a few lately but right now I have no partner. My old girlfriend and I argued day in and day out over the simplest of things and therefore it became very stressful to the point where we couldn't sleep, we were tired, we were annoyed. It was chaotic.

my relationship is stressful. to the point to where my girlfriend of 2 years moved out and has me in the milbo on whether or not were going to be together. she has alot on her plate such as dealing with the financial responsabilities of living on her own vs. her income. i feel bad because she does want to get out on her own but at the same time shes struggling and shes one of those independant types that dont like asking for help. But yeah so im going through something i do deserver and thats being lonely without her and its stressing me out with work and other activites, because of the fact that i dont know if shes going to decide that we should be broken up... hate it right now

Well my relationship is stressful right now I think we both want things to get better so we both are trying to make it work. what i find is that when you want the relationship you have you focus on good things and try wshat every it take to make that relationship work. You stop careing about being wright or who did what and start seeing what you can do to make it better. I belive that we have the powere to make our relationships or break then. It would not mean much if relationships were easy. Offten you have a person who cares and a person who dose not care. but when both people want the relationship to work then you have somthing to really work with. My guy and I work throughout the day to make the other person feel safe and ok with our relationship. I now understand how couple whom have seen hell and back can say that they love there other half. Because even thought its hard sometimes and thinga are a bit stressful its nice to know somone wants the realationship just as much as you do.

I'm in a fairly normal relationship - we have great times, we have the occasional bickering, a tad bit of sadness every now and then - but the good always outweighs the bad in this one. I'm definitely 100% sure that this man loves me - his sacrifices in order to make this relationship work might seem minimal to some - but they're fairly huge to me. Especially because he's the bread winner in their household - yeap, he's taking care of his parents since they're not capable anymore. And yes I do understand that I'm going to marry into that once we cross that bridge - but I'd be more than happy to take care of his parents with him. They're great - even though I can't directly communicate with the mother-in-law (she doesn't speak english). I can tell she likes me. =D

Mine is stress free, because i have none =p My last one was horrible, but a bad realtionship so bad example. Very few loving moments, and closely followed by something bad so i dont think that really counts! But i guess every relationship faces challenges, and the key is to have the strength between you and the love to get through anything that gets thrown your way
