Don’t you hate when you see unhealthy relationships all around you? I mean people have to realize that just because two people have managed to not break up, it doesn’t mean that their relationship is a success. It really bothers me when someone’s individuality is compromised in the course of a relationship because no great romance is worth losing yourself.

Here are 5 reasons why accepting your partner’s individuality is the key to a happy relationship:

1. It’s what sets them apart

2. It’s what you loved

3. It’s a new perspective

4. It’s about respect

If you have such a huge problem with differences in opinion, you should probably date yourself. You can’t? Boo hoo!
