Sounds like my brohther in law. He and others were taking bets on how long my wife and I would last, with nobody thinking we would make it past a year.

It was 17 years this year. BIL is on wife #3.

    People like that think if they can do "better" than their peers, they're winning somehow with relationships.

    They have a fundamental misunderstanding about what relationships are about.

    Which is why theirs fail. They think it's a game and there's points and winners and losers.

    They will never learn that it's about putting someone else's needs ahead of your own sometimes is what's best in life.
