A relationship will always have ups and downs. Maybe you need to work on more communication in your partnership, or maybe he needs to think about grabbing you flowers every so often to boost your mood. It isn't easy navigating a relationship, especially if you're partnered up with a fella who clearly has some demons. But, what do we ladies do? We stay, hoping that with enough time and care, things might start looking up.

But sometimes, some things occur that are past the point of repair. It helps to know we've done everything we could, but self-respect is the first thing that should be on our to-do list. The only person we have after all is said and done is ourselves—and that's beautiful.

The woman featured in this story found out that her boyfriend of many years had taken a loan out in her name for 17 thousand dollars. He has a history of mental health issues and everything that comes along with that. She thought that he was better, but it seems like he was simply hiding his woes. Her boyfriend even tried taking out more money in her name, but the bank did not approve. The woman is thrown for a loop and has no idea what to do in terms of moving forward. Commenters are giving her the strength she needs to get up and get out because she deserves better, and I have a funny feeling the woman knows her worth, too.
