1. You want them to change their appearance: If you're demanding that your partner change their looks to suit you (or the society), then you don't deserve to be with them anyway. You need grow up and understand everyone can't be the same!
2. They still notice an attractive person: Yes you are in a relationship and your partner chose you but that doesn't mean he/she traded his/her senses from seeing and knowing someone looks good and attractive. Do not confuse this with eyeing every girl that passes by.
3. Being single seems easier: Is being single easier? Yeah, it probably is because when you're single you can live your life however you want. But we're firm believers that nothing worth having comes that easily.
4. You had a fight: Disagreements should be a time to understand your partner better. It will be tough but this is the best time to fight for your relationship instead of just running away.
5. A "unplanned blessing": This one is a little extreme, but unfortunately it is more common than you might think. Keep in mind that if you felt close enough to make it happen, you're close enough to make it work. By the way, when you went into intimacy, what did you expect to come out of it? A limo or Porsche?
6. Not ready for marriage: Just because your partner isn't ready for marriage yet, doesn't mean it's time to walk away. You may just be at a different place than they are so if you're really serious about spending the rest of your life with them, give them the time they need to feel ready.
7. You don't have everything in common: Chances are you won't have all of the same hobbies because, well everyone is different. This was a lesson we learned as kids before basic education but some people seem to have trouble applying it to relationships.
8. You have different schedules: Sometimes relationships take a little more work because of different schedules. Maybe she works nights and you work mornings but that should not get in the way, if you're really trying to make it work then you'll always find the time.
9. They're not a stereotype: So, maybe you think your girlfriend should be cooking your meals and ironing your shirts. Or you think your boyfriend should be working all day and spending all of his money on you. A rule about relationships: someone should not have to change just to be with you.
10. The butterflies are gone: Remember your first date with them when you had butterflies in your stomach and you blushed because they complimented your outfit? This eventually wears off but just because you've become comfortable with each other, it does not mean that it's not working anymore. It happens to everyone.
11. They don't make you happy all the time: Someone else should never be responsible for your own happiness. Relationships require work and sometimes, they feel anything but happy. If this is a problem for you, then you've seen one too many Disney movies.
12. Can't Handle Baggage: News flash, everyone comes with some kind of baggage. Even if it's the first serious relationship for your partner, they're going to have strings attached. If you're looking for perfection, you should probably just prepare to die alone.
