I speak for most couples dating. I speak for most couples as fiancees. I speak for most couples as husbands and wives. I speak for most couples as lifetime partners. Friends are included--I speak for circles of friends. We are a burden to some degree little or big. We are a burden to ourselves to some degree little or big. Overweight and unhealthy. Short-temper. Slow learner. Bad cook. Loud talker. Unemployed. Obsessed with cats. Smoker. Drives too fast. Too quiet. Snorer. Hates music. Impolite. The list is infinite.
Nobody is perfect. Is the tolerance of one person a tolerant match for the other person? Different tolerances for different people. Different strokes for different folks. Patience, acceptance, and matching are important for a long-lasting relationship. Can't handle the burden? Close the chapter. End the relationship. Cut the losses. Can you make an effort to reduce burden to yourself and to others? Take a deep breath. You can contribute to the world there's one less burdensome troubled person.
