My boyfriend and I have been together almost 5 years. Our relationship has only gotten better with time, and our love has only grown. We have "conflict" as most do when you spend all your time with someone but it's little stuff and we're always on the same side. There's no name calling, belittling, yelling etc. a far cry from my childhood. Relationship are a lot of work but it shouldn't be as difficult as others make it out to be.
What bothers me the most is that even after years of women finally realising they have the option to choose better, it's still so systematically ingrained in us to put up with our (male) partners that we forget that we don't HAVE to put up with them anymore
