Does your partner make life better?

I feel like everyone I've been with added stress to my life. It's always been more work, the affection and effort dwindle after awhile. I end up depleted yet still expected to carry all the weight and feeling alone.

Do relationships exist where two people put in the effort to keep the spark lit? Do couples help each other and take the pressure off? Has your partner improved your life?

I'd say yes, mostly. We have a hard time communicating sometimes, thats probably our biggest issue. But we do care about each other & we always try to help each other wherever we can. I think I handle stress a little better than her so I try to take all the weight I can off of her especially if I see she's frustrated or tired. & When she sees me busy with something she's always asking me "how can I help?"

Sometimes, I even accept her help 🙃 I think I'm improving there lol
