Women need to be willing to leave relationships that are not working. We have to quit becoming layman therapists, reading self-help books, and otherwise overcompensating for our partners’ terrible behavior. Men who blame their partners for their own behavior or constantly pick fights are being terrible partners. It doesn’t matter why they are being disrespectful and cruel. It doesn’t matter if they’re looking for a new partner or falling out of love or just in need of a good therapist.

Women need to quit trying to make the relationship work when it’s not working for us.
