Deal Breakers

We, as a society, really need to stop pressuring people to have significant others at all costs. Yes, relationships take work and we should deal with the other's differences with a mature outlook if the relationship is to survive BUT there are certain flaws that SHOULD be deal-breakers. They should NOT be tolerated and we should be supporting anyone walking away from this situation.

Deal-breakers that we should all agree on:

*They are a current gang member.
*They deal drugs.
*They regularly use drugs harder than marijuana.
*The majority of their free time is spent drinking and/or doing drugs.
*They show verbal and/or physical abuse to animals and children.
*They demand to know your whereabouts 24/7.
*They find a way to make you pay for everything.
*They constantly want you to do things you're not comfortable with.
*They refuse to practice safe sex.
*They have three or more children, all with different baby mamas/daddies.
*They commit crimes that could lead to JAIL for YOU!

I think dumping a cheater is perfectly reasonable, actually.

So do I, and yet so many people 'forgive' a cheating partner. If by 'forgive' you read 'spend the next five years minimum torturing them at every possible opportunity'.
