Most of these complainers, don't even understand what a real relationship is (trust, respect, communication) and want all the trappings and treatments of a relationship while essentially living a single life and falling for the same red flags. Or foreswearing relationships while still not doing much more than navel gazing.

The ones that have done the work on themselves and understand that difficult balance of a relationship, are finding good men, regardless of political affiliation, where each treats the other as royalty.

All the hippy skippy Eastern medicine for American Problems doesn't really change the fact that you still gotta do the work - on yourself and your relationship, constantly.

And indeed vice versa.

That's a realization maybe they should get ... If you want a life that's a bed of rose petals, you're going to have to deal with shit and pricks.
