<p>But the post also helped a lot of people. Since writing it, it's generated a staggering amount of thank you emails, and no less than 20 people notified me that it inspired them to end their relationships (or even in a few cases, their marriages). It was the wake up call these people needed to finally let go and accept that their relationship was gagging them with a shit-spoon every day. And they deserved better. </p>

<p>Granted, I have far more experience screwing up relationships than making them work well, but I still wanted to take a stab at a "healthy relationship" post. I didn't want to just make it a (yet another) "learn to communicate and cuddle and watch sunsets and play with puppies together" type post. You can find those posts just about everywhere. And honestly, those posts suck. If you love your partner, you shouldn't have to be told to hold hands and watch sunsets together. This stuff should be automatic. </p>

Understand yourself and those around you.
