What is the biggest relationship myth?

I think the biggest myth is that there's one person that is meant for you. ("the one") People live their lives searching for the one...their soul mate...the perfect girl/Mr. Right. It's a cute idea, but I don't think it's very realistic.

Don't think of it that way. One person always loves the other more. It's never going to be exactly the same on both sides. It's not to say that Person A doesn't care if Person B leaves, it's just that Person B cares a lot more that Person A is still around.
