'Those butterflies are a trap': Misconceptions people had about relationships that they eventually realized were total BS

Whether you're in the midst of dating or currently in a relationship, everybody needs a moment to sit down and reflect on past loves. Why did you fall in love? Why did it end in heartbreak? What steps did each party take that made the relationship what it was? Remember, dating takes two (at least). So you have to not only think about your ex-partner, but you also have to look within. Why did you feel butterflies when you were first falling for this ex? Were they actually butterflies, or was it your body warning you that this person actually makes you nervous in a bad way. Sometimes it's hard to determine the difference between happy butterflies and red flag butterflies. And what about all those archaic sayings that just don't make sense any more? "Don't ever go to bed angry!" What? What if we're angry at each other because we're sleepy and cranky? Wouldn't it behoove us to sleep on it and then we won't be as curt with each other because now we are well rested and can think clearer? Luckily, a Reddit thread as stared on the subreddit r/AskWomen where people are sharing their relationship misconceptions that they didn't realize were total BS until way after the relationship. Check them out below and maybe get some insight in your own dating philosophies as well.
