Every relationship has its ups and downs. Partners may have disagreements about whose family to spend the holidays with, how much money is a reasonable amount to spend on video games, and where the perfect place in their apartment is for that one adorable cactus. It’s completely natural to have arguments with your partner or spouse, as this means that you care about the relationship and you’re willing to express how you feel about what’s important to you. But there is a healthy way to work through conflicts, and if every day in your relationship is leaving you feeling more drained than a 40-hour work week, there might be a problem.
That’s why it’s nice to have people you can turn to for support, or to talk through your relationship issues with. And if you’re not regularly seeing a therapist and it’s challenging to get time in your busy friends’ schedules, groups like This Relationship Sounds Exhausting can be a godsend. This Facebook group is described as “a place we gather to discuss love, life, and happiness”, and provides a space for members to post memes, anonymous/support posts, and relationship questions/polls. We all know what it feels like to need to vent or seek advice about our relationships, so this Facebook page, which has amassed an impressive 75k members in just two years, can be the perfect place to do so.

To learn more about This Relationship Sounds Exhausting, we reached out to Alan, one of the group's administrators, who was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda. "The group has a profound personal significance to me," he shared. "I grew up in a loveless, abusive home with higher-functioning autism. Love and relationships never made sense to me. The group is a platform where I am able to both learn from, and share my own experiences. The growth of the group has been breathtaking, and it's fantastic to see the positive impact we've had on some couples who finally took the courage to leave abusive ('exhausting') situations."
Alan also added that the group's members are quite active. "The community is highly engaged, and will not hesitate at calling out 'exhausting' relationships/partners. We're proud to have grown a supportive community."

Load More Replies...We were also curious what Alan considers an "exhausting" relationship. "I feel that most couples don't realize that the best relationships are good at sharing very frequent complaints within the relationship," he told Bored Panda. "To steal a line from Hannah Fry, a mathematician, 'The most successful relationships are ones with a really low negativity threshold. In those relationships, couples allow each other to complain, and work together to constantly repair the tiny issues between them'," Alan continued, noting the importance of open and honest communication. "Fun fact: It takes about 5 positive feelings to be 'equivalent' to 1 negative feeling, within a relationship."

The toxic people in our lives aren't broken. They're functioning exactly how they want to. They're only interested in people who are broken because they tend to enable their toxic behaviour due to fears of being alone. My point is, you can't fix them, they're not broken, and they certainly can't fix you, broken is how they want you. We all have to learn to like ourselves so we don't fall prey to toxic people. Let's socially normalize liking ourselves enough to be ok being alone. Another person is not going to show up and magically make you feel better, not for long anyways.
Taru Pöysä 2 years ago
Often, broken people become toxic, though. They may be needy, narcissistic, controlling or physically abusive, because they don't know any better, and are just trying to survive/manage. Often they don't know that they should seek help. Sometimes they're so broken that nothing could help them. Sometimes help is good and I really hope this is the case for me. It usually is vital for you to get away from them, but labeling toxic as inherently evil is not good.

I applaud the therapist re-establishing OP's "agency" (the sense that results are a product of their own choices and efforts), but there ARE toxic people who feed on "broken" people. They figure they can abuse the broken people where less broken people would fight back. Agency comes from being able to say, "I refuse to be broken."

Similar, but didn't get into the 'resent' part. Stayed in 'craving love so bad' part. It was so powerful that I would fall in love with anyone showing decency and kindness, or started relationships with people that weren't for me - ignored all the red flags. After way too many failed relationships I went to therapy and finally understood that I had no idea how to love and be loved. For being inna healthy relarionship I needed to come to terms with my mother, my past, my mistakes and somehow learn to fill my hunger for love and validation with self love. A lot of work. But hey, muuuch better now. Single, but happy! And healing, with tons of self-love and finally learning to filter people better.

It usually happens when someone else in the household has anger issues/acts out unhealthily so there’s no room for anyone else’s anger or feelings. Speaking from personal experience. People ask me how I learned to be so patient and understanding with others. I give them a Cheshire Cat smile and say “I learned it from my mother.” Technically it’s true. 😉 Happy to say I’ve now learned to stand up for myself. Thanks, therapy! :::80s movie-end freeze frame!:::
There are many things that might make a relationship feel emotionally exhausting. To learn more about this topic, we checked out this article from Bonobology where psychologist Shambhavi Agrawal broke down some of the reasons behind one of these exhausting relationships. First, she mentions that unrealistic expectations might be a contributing factor. “When a partner has expectations that you are not able to fulfill, or vice versa, there’s a very obvious misalignment in your dynamic,” she told Bonobology. “When there is a mismatch between both partners about what’s expected and what can be delivered, it can lead to a lot of emotional exhaustion.”
Toxic scenarios where unhealthy behavior like gaslighting is taking place can also make your relationship feel way more tiring than it should. “When a person has some narcissistic traits, gaslighting will end up causing a lot of mental harm to you,” Shambhavi explained. “Perhaps they’re overly dependent on you and it’s taking a negative toll on your mental health. This type of dynamic is bound to turn into an emotionally draining relationship.”

It’s never okay to cheat but if both parties are cheating and chill with each other cheating then either go poly or break up, cheating and all the secrecy it entails isn’t good
Shambhavi goes on to note that our intrapersonal relationships can also play a part in how exhausting our romantic relationships are. When we are unhappy in our own skin, it’s very unlikely that we’ll be able to create a healthy relationship with another person. “For example, a person may be grieving, or they may not have a good financial structure, or they might be going through prolonged stress,” Shambhavi explained to Bonobology. “If such a person is in a relationship, they’ll tend to lean on their partner for support and functionality. But if their partner is equally involved in their own engagements or struggling with their own issues, it’s bound to result in an emotionally exhausting relationship.”
And when it comes to some of the signs of an exhausting relationship, one of the top indicators is that a fight might be waiting around every corner. If you’re scared to bring up certain topics or to spend too much time with your partner because you anticipate that a fight will break out, that’s not a great sign. Do you have to walk on eggshells around your significant other? Or do you feel like every little thing they do is a personal attack against you? Relationships should not be this stressful.

I can see two different sides to this. If the partner is purposely trying to make the other feel stupid, than f**k them and leave that relationship. But, they may not be doing this purposely. I love to debate. I have always been passionate about social and world issues and was raised by a father who made me learn how to debate and would always question a view point we had, if he agreed or not. He wanted to make sure that we understood all the different views and make sure we understood that when having a opinion about important social issues you need to really understand and defend what you where talking about by doing proper research, not biased confirmation that many believe is research, and so that we could see other sides to issues. He also made sure we learned to never get personal, and to keep cool, if you start to get emotional, take a break. This has helped me be very good at debating. My husband was raised the opposite. Very non confrontational and to not make waves, just go along with it or ignore it, even if you disagree. And although there are some social issues he cares about, he doesn't have the same passion I do. Debating things, especially an impromptu debate caused him to "feel stupid", caused anxiety, and he really does not like it. He doesn't mind that someone has a different view, he just doesn't want to and doesn't feel comfortable debating. When we were first together, he never explained this too me and would get upset and just shut any debate down very quickly. Like, if he said "I believe this or that" and I would start debating that, he would listen to my opinion, and one or two points why I had that opinion, and then change the subject or say he didn't want to discuss it. If I tried to debate it further, or ask him questions, he would get frustrated and upset. I took it as he refused to be open to discussing the issues or didn't care or want to hear my opinion and why I felt that way. It was confusing too, because we were very good at communicating with each other. So, I flat out asked him why he would shut down any debate and how it made me feel. He then explained how and why he was uncomfortable with debating things, how it does not come natural to him, and it made him feel stupid. I felt so bad as I never, ever meant to make him feel that way and he is far from stupid. We were able to discuss it and I realized he just doesn't like to debate and it not something that comes natural to him and he realized that it was something very natural to me and I enjoyed doing it. We discussed it more and came up with ways to "debate" so that we both are comfortable and feel heard, and over the years I have learned new skills on how to discuss things with people debate with who don't like to debate or are uncomfortable with it and he has become more comfortable with debating. This post might be a similar situation and the partner isn't actively trying to make the person feel stupid, they just don't realize that their partner isn't comfortable with debating, doesn't like it, or how it makes them feel.

There is a time and a place for a good debate and it's not every time you speak to your partner no matter where you are. On the flip side, there is a difference between a healthy academic debate and arguing - I used to engage in healthy academic debates with other academics, my ex shamed me for this and then progressively started baiting me into becoming annoyed, usually by saying he was going to say something but now he won't because I will just start an argument thus began a cycle of defending my position in that I don't actually start arguments as majority of them are started by suggesting I will he found a way to weave in my academics and started suggesting I was obsessed with debating and arguing with everyone and it was crazy and not normal behavior and I needed therapy... Most frustrating relationship ever...

The point of a debate is to articulate your ideas and viewpoints. The reason many view it to be a red flag is because they don't debate back. If both parties were to debate things and both started the debates it wouldn't be a red flag it would just he a brain exercise. The real red flag is when you tell them you don't want to have that conversation and they have it anyway.
Oftentimes, individuals who are in emotionally exhausting relationships might start experiencing self-esteem issues as well, but they may not be aware of the cause initially. “When you’re constantly trying to prove your love to somebody and they haven’t been approving of it, your self-esteem is going to decline. It may leave you feeling unmotivated and riddled with insecurities,” Shambhavi told Bonobology. In a healthy relationship, your partner will ensure that you feel like enough, providing you love, affirmation and affection. But when we are deprived of these things, it’s easy to start to wonder if we deserve them at all. If your partner ever makes you feel that way, pandas, know that you deserve better.

This might be an interesting thing to study in the difference between the way typical men and women fantasize. Like, it's possible that men tend to fantasize about the unattainable, where as women tend to fantasize about something more realistic. That does make sense with current studies that show that women's arousal and pleasure tends to be more based on the mental than the physical in relation to guys.

This one doesn't belong here. These are boundaries. You don't cross them.
Another sign that there might be an issue in your relationship is if you find yourself wanting to be alone, rather than wanting to be with your partner, a little bit too often. It’s completely natural to desire some space and time for yourself, especially for those of us who are introverted, but if you find yourself trying to avoid your partner or desperately wanting to be alone, that’s a problem. Why be in a relationship with someone if they make you feel so exhausted that you find yourself looking forward to the times when they’re not around?

If you have found yourself in an emotionally exhausting relationship but you’re not ready to call it quits yet, the relationship might not be doomed. If both parties are willing to put in the work to adopt healthier habits and take the time and energy required to improve the relationship, it can be saved. To gain some insight on how to repair an emotionally draining relationship, we consulted this article from Rachael Pace at Marriage.com. She first recommends that anyone in this situation works hard to evaluate the problem. Issues don’t magically disappear without being addressed, so after identifying them, couples must work to communicate how they feel about them. Make sure you both have the opportunity to share and listen. You have to both feel safe to explain your side.

I'm just posting this here as a general "if you are interested" comment not a "let's use statistics and watch the chaos unfold" There are 168 hours in a week 80 hours equals 0.47619 of that week Stay at home mothers work an average of 14 hours a day, or a 98-hour workweek that's equivalent to 2.5 jobs and 18 hours more than that 80 hours. They get 1.7 hours on average a day to themselves. Stay-at-home mothers spend nine hours more per week than working mothers on housework (23 hours vs. 14 hours), and they also have nine more hours per week of leisure time and five more hours per week of time to sleep (including naps) than do working mothers. A recent study found that Aussie men do more housework than most of the world’s men. Only Danish men devote more time to domestic duties than Australians, who apparently average nearly three hours A DAY on chores. According to the study, conducted by The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), Aussie men typically spend
Bea Boxall 2 years ago
two hours and 52 minutes each day doing housework — 18 minutes more than the egalitarian Swedes, half an hour more than British or New Zealand men, and 40 minutes more than the Italians or French. The three hours of housework Australian men are doing is broken down in this manner: an hour and a half on routine housework, half an hour caring for family and 22 minutes shopping. A survey from the Melbourne Institute’s Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia survey, published in 2019, showed that even when women took on more paid employment, they continued to do more domestic chores in the house. The only task that an increasing number of women say they are doing less work on shopping, which the internet has conveniently solved for us.

Yeah, I knew a guy who worked 80 hours a week, he always made his wife feel guilty about it and made her do all the housework, but I worked in the same office as him and saw that he mostly watched YouTube, gossiped and even slept in his chair at work. So many people live in the office without actually doing anything.

Rachael goes on to note that each individual must know what they want when trying to fix an issue in their relationship. Once they understand what they want, it’s their responsibility to communicate that to their partner. Along the same lines, individuals must take time to focus on themselves and show themselves love as well. We cannot show love to others without becoming drained if we don’t first take care of ourselves. Mental health is always important, but especially when struggling with issues in your relationship, it’s crucial to still get enough sleep, nourish yourself and allow yourself to rest.

Another key aspect in healing an unhealthy relationship is asking plenty of questions. It can be easy to make assumptions or project things onto our partner, but there is no way of knowing what they’re thinking without asking them. Don’t be scared to dig and get to the root of your issues, otherwise they’ll keep causing more problems as time goes on. Checking in with an expert might also be necessary. Don’t wait until it’s too late to see a therapist or marriage counselor. Sometimes, we just don’t know what questions to ask one another, but if someone else facilitates the discussion, it can be a lot easier to get to the bottom of our conflicts. Plus, your partner might start sharing things that you never knew before, which might just remind you how much you love one another.

This was literally MY husband for 8 years. I was not allowed to fart near him. I had to poop downstairs, unless he was downstairs then I'd have to go upstairs. I couldn't cut my hair without permission, and I had to get the length approved. I couldn't take more than 2 feet in the king size bed, and I always had to face away from him. I had to wear a bra 24/7 because I'd had 4 kids and my boobs sagged. We were never allowed to make noise in the house. 4 kids. Showers were to be 5 minutes for boys, 10 for girls and I had to fight for the extra 5 minutes for girls because long hair and conditioner. We all walked on eggshells for 8 years. Been divorced, have full custody now since November 22 and we have all been able to breathe and relax. Still have cPTSD and anxiety for all 5 of us. But everyone in these toxic relationships need to get out! :(

I think they meant it as a reaction, like the sound/word when people say "uhhh". I THINK they meant it as like, they were so gobsmacked by what happened that they couldn't even finish their sentence and just went "uh" instead.

Both of these partners kinda suck. First off, what's with this idea of going to a foreign country to get laid by strangers "one last time" in our culture? If you don't want to be monogamous, don't be. Granted, you'll have to accept that what's good for the gander is good for the goose, but if you view marriage as a trap in the first place. Second, if your spouse doesn't trust you to not do those things is also just a huge red flag. This is a real "we live in a society" moment. Oof.

Humans cheat because they feel entitled to do so. And they're enabled by the people who've gas lit themselves like this. If you want an open relationship then you get into open relationships, it's really that simple. This girl's likely not as bothered by this because she might be secretly aromantic/asexual and doesn't actually like sex, so having someone else perform those "tasks" may actually be a relief for her. Still, she has made the false assumption that everyone is like herself.

hmm I don't know. This sort of behaviour is shown to be "normalised" in romcoms. It could be that he was into her but way too shy to just approach, so he had to stage something.

So it depends on HOW stalkery it was... like did he follow her home, watch her windows at night, etc etc.

Look: it's FINE if your partner prefers when you do your makeup a certain way. They can have their preferences. They can even express to you their preferences, and that they don't like it as much when you overdo your makeup (as an example). They can even ask (respectfully!) that you don't do your makeup in that way, when you two are going out on a date/going somewhere together/etc. (Which you can of course still say "no" to, you have the right to do your makeup how you want to, as well!) But this is NOT the way to express those preferences or make that request. Telling someone that you don't feel "attracted" to them when they do their makeup a certain way, or dress a certain way, or when you've gained 15 lbs (my personal example from my own life......) is just hurtful and completely not constructive at all. It's best to try and talk things through and see if the both of you can make compromises so that no one is left feeling miserable or angry.

What an awful thing to say. You're a bad person if you actually believe that. Polyamorous people are normal people who have normal feelings and absolutely CAN know what love really is. Just because you are poly does not mean you don't know what love is. It literally means that they are capable of loving more than one person at a time, which - BRACE YOURSELF - *most* people can do!! Do you love your parents AND your significant other? Do you love more than one of your children? Guess what? You're capable of loving more than one person at a time, too! Note: that does not make you a polyamorous person, as poly people generally are defined as being able to love more than one person at a time in a romantic/relationship manner. However, your statement is still facetious, spurious, invalid, and downright mean.

The fact that there is shame associated to a woman you are in a relationship with having an omlyfans account or working in any other sector of the adult entertainment industry shows how garbage our society is. If you believe that female sports stars, ballet dancers, or fashion models deserve respect for using their bodies to make money then you should also believe those who participate in any sector of the adult entertainment industry deserve the same level of respect and workplace safety regulations. Saying you will end a relationship over it would be no different then saying any other career is grounds for ending it. Children are bullied for anything, instead of blaming your wife, how about you be a better father/partner and use it as a teachable moment and stand up for your wife by telling your daughter there is no shame in what her mother does and teach your daughter how to handle bullies as this is a skill she will need for her entire life.

I think you need to stop getting relationship advice from reality shows.

I had to re-read this like 5 times before I finally got it, as I am old and my brain is dumb. Translation: she found a great guy that she likes a lot, but she feels that because she's 22, she's too young to date seriously and needs to use this time to be in her "th0t phase", meaning (more or less) "a woman who has many casual sexual encounters/relationships". While I applaud her acknowledging that she may feel that she is too young to be in a serious relationship, I'm saddened that some young women today seriously feel like "thot" is a GOOD description to append to themselves. It's usually intended derogatorily, like other female-centric slurs that "thot" is a synonym for :(

She's recognizing that she wants to be unattached and that he's attachment material. Language is constantly evolving

So go be a thot and let some other lucky woman who is ready for a man have this guy. I this guy saw this on social media while they were on their second date

Later the good men will be taken and she has to search harder. Usually it doesn't work

FWIW I absolutely agree. I typically do not have a difficult time getting through a list, this time however it was a chore. So many of these are blatant trolls but of those that are not, some of these folks are unhinged.

Unless you only have a couple of them, most relationships in your life you'll look back on and think ' f**k me, that was draining....' because always being the one to compromise first, always being the one cleaning up, always being the first to apologise even when it's a 50/50,l, always being the one to do 'anything' first consistently is draining. You just don't always see it at the time how tiring it is trying and failing to make something work when it was never going to work.. when the reality was you just weren't suited.

100%. I am really cynical about it now, I think it's basically doomed and it's just a question of how long it lasts.

Some of these were kind of funny but some of them were kind of, like, disturbing honestly.

Power Words guy was worse than I thought. Not only is he a praise junkie, he believes that his girlfriend has a finite number of Power Words and she needs to save them for him. If he needs a pep talk to get through a day's work, he needs to acknowledge his weakness. He's exhausting and crazy.
