Love- Do you stay? Do you go?

I think that the limit is different with dating and being in love and married and being in love. I think that if you are just dating, that you give the relationship a chance to the extent that the bad starts to really outweigh the good. I mean, every relationship turns into work. Not work in a bad since, but work meaning being more understanding, more forgiving, talking when you really just want to tell the person to get out of your face- that type of thing. Nevertheless, when you are dating someone when you are crying more than you are smiling and when there is more grief between the two of you than there is sharing, caring and growing together then it may be time to stand back and really examine the situation and see if it is really worth holding onto. Yet, if there is any physical or mental abuse it is time to get out and GET OUT QUICK!!!!!!!!! I think for marriage it is a bit different. Usually, when problems arise there is an underlining situation. I mean there are things that can be worked out and worked through and you two have taken a vow to be together so therefore there is more of an obligation to work out your problems. The limits are extended and really should be no limits unless, again, there is ANY physical and mental abuse. (Keeping in mind that this abuse can go both ways i.e. - being inflicted by the woman onto the man or from the man onto the woman). Hope this helps. Best of luck
