So you met someone, and it’s going pretty well. You’ve been on a few dates, you’re texting every day, and all signs are pointing to this turning into something. Or maybe you’ve been dating for so long that your relationship is comfortable, and you feel perfectly fine. But then that nagging feeling creeps in the back of your mind: are they really The One, or am I wasting my time? The truth is that when you know, you know, but when you’re not sure, you know too; it’s just harder to admit because what you know in that case leads to a breakup.
We’ve all stayed with people we know aren’t right for us, but choose to ignore the gut feeling. We stay because it’s easier than being alone, we “should” like the other person, or we’re worried there won’t be anyone else. Maybe this person checks all the boxes, but there’s just something missing. You know the breakup…
